"Your friend?" Before Li Yan finished speaking, the people around him looked up at the traffic light and flew away like a butterfly.

Seeing her running towards him, Ji Jinchen suddenly breathed a sigh of relief.

Things didn't seem to be as bad as he thought.

Chu Yao didn't know what was wrong with her, but there was a thought in her heart urging her to act, but when she was in front of Ji Jinchen, she was speechless again.

This was the first time she was so overwhelmed. Fortunately, Ji Jinchen waited patiently for her to speak.

"I..." she said hesitantly, "...I didn't bring an umbrella."

"Let's go home first." Ji Jinchen held up an umbrella, and the rain became heavier again, soaking his suit jacket.

But there was no trace of rain on Chu Yao's body.

Is this someone from Xuanmen? He thought, God favors her so much that rain and snow will avoid her.

He looked back at Li Yan, with a bit of childish showoff in his eyes.

"The Ji family..." Li Yan smiled sarcastically and murmured to himself, "People like her will not be burdened by love at all. She was born to achieve greater achievements..."

After returning home, there were only a few servants in the Ji family busy, and when they saw Chu Yao, they all came up to greet her.

"Yaoyao is here. I haven't seen you for a long time. Are you very busy with homework recently?"

"Miss Chu doesn't know, but my wife is thinking about and looking forward to you every day."

"Today is really unlucky. The old man and his wife are not at home. You have to stay for a few more days."

"Ah, is it raining outside? Why is Third Young Master getting wet..."

Only then did the servants notice Ji Jinchen next to them. He waved his hand, said "It's okay" and went back to the bedroom.

"Third Young Master is still so worry-free. Whatever Miss Chu wants to eat, I'll let the kitchen do it."

"No, I've eaten." Chu Yao still replied politely.

They noticed that she was feeling a little depressed, so they wisely did not disturb her.

The dust in the imperial capital was heavy, but Chu Yao's bedroom was still the same as before, tidy, as if she had never left.

There are seasonal flowers on the windowsill. It can be seen that they were newly put on today. There are one or two buds that have not yet had time to unfurl.

Whenever she came back, she would see flowers in bloom instead of an evergreen potted plant that was easy to care for.

She knew that the servants would not care about these small details, just like they would only put the charging cable neatly into the drawer instead of putting it where she could easily find it.

There is only one person who sometimes understands herself better than she does, and he will always create the most comfortable environment for her silently.

She thought it was time for them to have a good talk.

Chu Yao put her phone on the table to charge. She walked out of the bedroom and knocked on Ji Jinchen's door.

"Hold on."

A few minutes later, Chu Yao saw Ji Jinchen with slightly wet hair.

He had just finished taking a shower, and his eyes were not as alienated as they were when facing outsiders, but a little more hazy.

Compared with vision, Chu Yao's nose captured other information first.

Smells of alcohol.

It's not the royal drink she often drank in her previous life, nor is it the colorful fruit wine Bai Ningle bought when she was curious.

It is a pure and refreshing aroma.

Because the distance was too close, Chu Yao actually had the illusion that the aura was emanating from the person in front of him.

"sit down."

This is the second time Chu Yao came in. The last time he was naturally not in the mood to visit, today he discovered that his room was nearly 200 square meters.

It is said to be Ji Jinchen's bedroom, but it occupies more than half of this floor. Outside is a small living room with a cabinet for storing drinks. There is also a very private study room inside.

As for his real bedroom, it was further down.

He put away the wine glasses on the table and took a bottle of juice from the cabinet that Chu Yao often drank.

Although it was Chu Yao who came to him, it was Ji Jinchen who spoke first. He asked in a soft and helpless tone: "Am I not obvious enough?"

"Performance...what?" Chu Yao looked at him carefully.

There was no evil spirit around him, so he probably wasn't possessed by something.

Or is he hiding some crucial secret from himself?

Ji Jinchen saw the look in her eyes and knew she had misunderstood.

"My heart." His words were as straightforward as his eyes. Being looked at by him with such fiery eyes, Chu Yao suddenly had the idea of ​​withdrawing a little.

Does this count as setting yourself on fire?

It was obviously delivered to her door by herself.

"Heart...mind..." Chu Yao's mind was in chaos, "Didn't you tell me last time? I remember, I didn't treat you as a friend. I haven't been back here recently because …”

"Don't explain." His voice became increasingly dry, "Yes, you didn't treat me as a friend, but I no longer just want to be 'friends' with you."

Chu Yao asked without hesitation: "Why?"

It seems like she hasn't done anything to feel sorry for Ji Jinchen, right?

It's just that we haven't seen each other for a while. He already wants to break up with him?

Chu Yao felt a little funny in his heart, why did this person look like a kid in kindergarten.

She completely ignored that there was another "only" in Ji Jinchen's words, which was a hair's breadth away.

"Because, if we were just friends, we wouldn't be like me now."

Before she could ask "How are you now?", he suddenly held her hand. His senses were infinitely magnified at this moment, and a numb and soft feeling came from the back of his hand.

It was obviously just a very gentle kiss, and in other countries it was just a courtesy when meeting.

But his eyes were too foul, and he no longer concealed the surging love. He told her in his own way——

He no longer wants to treat her as just a friend, he needs a more upright identity.

Even if you are jealous, you must first be qualified to be jealous, right?

"If my behavior just now made you feel bad, please forget what happened today." He returned to his usual rational appearance.

Chu Yao clearly saw that his eyes dimmed.

"What if I say no?" she asked softly.

"Then you..." His breathing rate increased unconsciously, he slowed down his speaking speed, and asked extremely solemnly, "Are you willing to date me?"
