C9 He Sent Her Home

The rain wasn't really heavy, but it didn't stop, so it had to hold the umbrella.

Shi Xiaoxi was 1.65 meters and Gu Chenming was 1.88 meters. According to the height difference, she had to keep holding the umbrella to cover their bodies.

Along the way, Shi Xiaoxi was silent. Her attention was focused on the numb hand. To be honest, she wanted to change her hand to hold the umbrella, but the person next to her was an ice mountain. She was afraid that something bad would happen, so she did not dare to move.

I wonder if you have heard of a saying?

One. The more careful a person is, the easier it will be for something to go wrong.

After walking for a few more steps, Gu Chenming suddenly stopped. Shi Xiaoxi was so scared that she also stopped. At the same time, his bone-piercing cold voice sounded, "I can't see the way."

Probably because she was really afraid of him, Shi Xiaoxi obediently raised the umbrella a little higher and asked with a smile, " What about now?"

Gu Chenming cast a sidelong glance at her but did not say anything. He strode forward and she ran after him.

It was obvious that the umbrella would not only block Gu Chenming's line of sight once, but fortunately, he did not make a sound during the last few times. When he lost count of how many times he blocked his line of sight, he finally could not help but explode.

He stopped walking and his deep gaze fell on Shi Xiaoxi. He looked at her for a few seconds and suddenly sighed. Finally, he raised his hand to take the umbrella and muttered in a low voice, "I don't even know what my brain is used for!"

Shi Xiaoxi did not hear clearly and asked with a frown between her brows, "What?"

Gu Chenming did not speak bluntly and only said, "Hurry up and leave."

Alright, he did not want to say it, so it would be pointless for her to ask.

Nine years! A whole nine years! Shi Xiaoxi had never walked side by side with him. She had never talked so much to him. She had never felt warmth from him...

But tonight, the chaos in her heart seemed to have been saved. However, she did not have the courage and qualification to continue.

How could a dying person be a burden to someone who had a great future?

She thought a lot in her heart, until Gu Chenming said, "Get in the car."

His voice was deep and mellow, like the melodious sound of a cellist. It was especially charming.

Shi Xiaoxi was stunned when she saw a black Rolls Royce parked by the roadside. The passenger door of the passenger seat had already opened. Gu Chenming stood by the door and stared at her with his dark and deep eyes.

She was a little frightened and asked shakily, "Go... Why did you get in the car?"

Shi Xiaoxi understood Gu Chenming and had also heard of his habits. Other than the driver and himself, he seemed to have never sat in anyone else's car. Even when he just sent Shen Ruochu back, he also let the driver drive another car.

Gu Chenming was not a patient person. He saw that Shi Xiaoxi did not move. He put away the umbrella and put it back in the car. He sat in the driver's seat. With his finger on the steering wheel, he looked at Shi Xiaoxi. His voice was indifferent, "Shi Xiaoxi, I don't want to repeat my words a second time."

Maybe it was because he felt angry, or maybe it was because of the inferiority in her heart, or maybe it was because there were more onlookers around...

In short, Shi Xiaoxi got into the car.

Along the way, her body was stiff. She did not say anything and did not move.

Time seemed to pass very quickly. It felt like the car stopped near her house in less than a few minutes.

Gu Chenming coldly shouted at her, "Get out of the car."

Shi Xiaoxi took off her seatbelt and thanked him, "Thank you for bringing me back."

Gu Chenming did not even turn his head, and did not have the slightest intention of greeting her.

Shi Xiaoxi stood by the side of the road and waited for him to drive away.

Under the orange light, the profile of Gu Chenming's side profile was as clear as a knife carving. The line of his lower jaw extended from his ear to his lower jaw. His short black hair covered his eyebrows, making him appear as sharp as an eagle in the night.

He sat in the car, emitting a natural nobility from his body.

He was so entranced that when Gu Chenming turned around, their eyes met.

One panicked, while the other was calm.

Gu Chenming's eyes, which were covered with a thin layer of ice, looked at her. He made a decision on his own. "I'll pick you up at two o'clock tomorrow afternoon. Accompany me to the cocktail party tomorrow night."
