Chapter 66 - 66 065 Xie Shang goes public with his relationship

Chapter 66: 065: Xie Shang goes public with his relationship (Second update) Chapter 66: 065: Xie Shang goes public with his relationship (Second update) Wen Changling was about to walk as directed when Mr. Xie’s voice came through her ear again, “Forget it, find somewhere you can take shelter from the rain and wait there for me.”

She agreed, hung up the phone, and took shelter from the rain under the awning outside the milk tea shop. A snail lay on the support pole of the awning, seemingly also seeking shelter from the rain.

She was observing the snail’s tentacles.

The snail’s eyes were on its tentacles, which would regrow if broken. Ah Na had told her this, Ah Na loved reading and was like a walking encyclopedia.

“Changling.”

She turned around and amidst the chaotic flow of traffic and people, spotted Mr. Xie at once; he was dressed in black and holding a red umbrella.

Red suited him very well.

It seemed the more intense, the more it suited him.

“How come you’re so quick?” Wen Changling checked her phone, less than five minutes had passed since she hung up the call.

“Just happened to be nearby.”

Wen Changling walked under the umbrella, and Mr. Xie tilted it slightly toward her.

The distance between the two was half a person’s width.

“Is the lantern broken? It’s not lit.”

“A utility pole got knocked down by the wind, a few streets have lost power.” Mr. Xie stopped, lifting the umbrella a little higher to let Wen Changling step around a puddle first, “You got off work much later today.”

“The hospital was very busy today.”

The rain was pouring down heavily, pattering against the umbrella.

Mr. Xie walked in step with Wen Changling, taking his time.

She pushed the umbrella, which was tilted towards her, a bit further away, “You’re getting wet.”

Mr. Xie wrapped one arm around her lower back, pulling her slightly into the shelter of the umbrella, and her white sweatshirt finally touched his black shirt.

There was a dried fruit shop at the street corner of Lotus Pond Street.

The proprietress of the shop had been talking animatedly with a customer, but upon seeing Wen Changling, she immediately fell silent.

The customer noticed and glanced at Wen Changling, their eyes conveying, “So it’s her.”

They were discussing her, discussing the matter concerning Ah Na.

Wen Changling quickened her pace.
