Chapter 398: Is the Birth Mother Indifferent Like a Chrysanthemum? The Young Lady Sabotages Everything 38_3



The assistant watched his young master get out of the car, open an umbrella, and quicken his pace toward the girl.

He shook his head.

Indeed! The power of love is great, and even their wise and brave young master was no exception.

Xie Yanshang held the umbrella, looking at Su Zhiruan who was drenched, her soft long hair stuck behind her ears. She was jogging, seemingly headed back to her apartment.

He quickly walked up to her and held the umbrella over her head.

Su Zhiruan had only wanted to quickly get home and then take a warm bath and have a good sleep.

Suddenly, she felt as if the rain from the sky had stopped, and then she looked up. This scene seemed familiar, and in an instant, she thought of the day at the military training opening ceremony, when a similar scene had occurred.

"Xie Yanshang?" Su Zhiruan blurted out in surprise.

"Long time no see."

Xie Yanshang handed the umbrella to her, but Su Zhiruan hadn't come back to her senses yet. She just stared at him blankly, and then she saw Xie Yanshang take off his coat and gently drape it over her shoulders.

The black suit jacket, tinged with a faint sandalwood scent and carrying the warm aura of a man, fell on her wet, cold shoulders, instantly warming her up.

As Xie Yanshang took off his coat, he revealed the white shirt underneath, the cuffs neatly rolled to just the right length. Clean and spotless, because of his movement in taking off the coat, his arms were exposed to the rain, and the thin shirt quickly clung to him, adding a touch of allure.

But Xie Yanshang didn't mind. He wrapped Su Zhiruan up tightly and then took the umbrella from her hands, firmly placing it over her head.

"To run into you at this time, Professor Xie, didn't a driver come to pick you up?" Su Zhiruan followed him subconsciously and only realized after a moment that he was heading toward the apartment where she was currently living.

"I... "

Xie Yanshang slightly lifted the black umbrella and with just one glance, he saw the car that had been following him, not too far away, seemingly always ready to pick someone up.

But Xie Yanshang pressed the umbrella down again and didn't look at the car anymore. His voice tinged with a hint of sorrow, he said, "It's rush hour now, many people are off work, my assistant said he suddenly encountered a problem on the road, told me to go back on my own, and I couldn't find a taxi, I only have an umbrella. It's okay, I have only three kilometers to go home."

"Three kilometers?" Su Zhiruan was slightly surprised when she heard the distance and looked up at him.

"Yes, just three kilometers. I didn't expect the traffic to be so heavy today, and there are so many people. Don't worry, it won't take long; I will get you home first, so you don't catch a cold in the chill," Xie Yanshang said, thoughtfully pressing the umbrella closer to Su Zhiruan.

It was precisely this gesture that made Su Zhiruan feel a bit guilty. The apartment she was currently renting was originally Xie Yanshang's temporary residence. Although she felt the words Xie Yanshang said were somewhat trite, being out in the rain and cold wind must be uncomfortable.

So Su Zhiruan thought for a moment and said, "How about you come to my place first and take a shower? Otherwise, being out in the rain and wind might lead to a cold."

As she said it, she could clearly see the man, who had been slightly aggrieved, brighten significantly. He immediately agreed, "Okay, then I'll ask for your help."

"No problem, this used to be your place anyway. If it weren't for my renting it, you'd probably be home by now," Su Zhiruan looked up at him, his ears turning red, but his eyes were filled with happiness.

Meanwhile, the clueless assistant was still in the car, honking the horn, completely unable to understand why CEO Xie wouldn't even glance at him. He even thought about getting out of the car himself to call the two to get in.

But when he saw the young master take off his coat and wrap it around the girl's shoulders, sticking to her like glue, the assistant realized something in an instant.

The figures of these two under the umbrella were extremely well-matched.

The assistant paused for a moment, then suddenly saw a very brief message pop up on his phone.

[You go back first.]

The assistant read the message twice, finally understanding it clearly.

If he wasn't mistaken, was CEO Xie... creating a chance to be alone?!

Thus, he drove an empty car, troubled yet unbound, imagining what CEO Xie was doing now.

When they arrived at the apartment building, Xie Yanshang leaned to one side, letting Su Zhiruan open the door. He closed the umbrella and followed Su Zhiruan inside.
