Hearing her unbridled words, Ye Junqing laughed out of anger, “If I get struck by lightning, you better be ready to live as a widow for the rest of your life.”

Ye Xingguang bit her lip and didn’t say anything. She also didn’t expect herself to blurt out something like that. It was probably what her subconscious mind truly felt. Who could blame her after how he embarrassed her tonight? noveldrama

Wait, if he got struck by lightning, why would she have to live as a widow for the rest of her life?

They were merely in an official relationship. They weren’t married, and were supposed to part ways after a year!

However, for some reason, even though this man was wickedly cursing her, she didn’t feel angry. Instead, she felt… sweet?

What madness was this? Sweet? Ye Xingguang, what on earth are you thinking?

Ye Xingguang quickly shook her head to clear her mind. However, she really didn’t dare to move again. She obediently buried her head in the man’s chest, allowing him to carry her through the heavy rain.

Ye Junqing wanted to carry her back to the car, but the car was parked a bit far. So, some of the reporters who were heading towards the disaster area caught an imposing scene of Ye Junqing, on a crowded motorway, carrying a girl against the flow of the rescue team…

The reporter involved worked at TD TV station, a media outlet that supported Lawson Perry. They couldn’t be more thrilled with the scene.

Before Ye Junqing even made it to the car with Ye Xingguang, TD TV station had already posted this scene on their official blog.

“Others are performing rescue operations, while Ye Junqing is flirting in the rain. I wonder how the Carp Maiden would feel after seeing this?”

The reporter thought the more cinematic and beautiful their shot of the two was, the more sarcastic the newscast would seem. Together, they created a perfect piece of news…

Ye Xingguang knew nothing of this. She was finally tucked into the warm, dry Rolls-Royce by the man. After being wrapped in a raincoat from head to toe, it was removed and a clean towel was placed on her head.

The man’s broad palm held the towel, drying her rain-drenched face. Fearing that she might catch a cold, he even dried her hair.

Sitting in the car, Ye Xingguang saw Ye Junqing himself dripping water all over his clothes. She quickly took hold of the towel and said, “Do you have changes of clothes in the car? You should change out of your wet clothes quickly. Don’t worry about me, I can manage.”

“Behave and don’t move!”

She was completely soaked, from head to toe. If she caught a cold, he would still have to…

Ye Junqings thoughts suddenly stopped, he thought resentfully, if she got sick, he wouldn’t even feel sorry. Who cared about her wellbeing anyway?

With that thought, he asked the driver to bring a blanket from the trunk. Wrapping her up like a chrysalis, he carefully dried her wet hair, gave her his cup of water to warm her hands, and only then did he start to change out of his wet shirt and trousers.

Suddenly, a very enchanting scene appeared before Ye Xingguangs eyes.

The man had his back to her, removing all his wet clothes. The car’s dim light traced his sensually defined back and slender waist, and his firm, white…

Before Ye Xingguang could fully appreciate the view, with a swift action, the man had draped a clean, white shirt over his shoulders, instantly blocking all the breathtaking details.

After Ye Junqing had put his clothes back on and turned around, he noticed the predatory look in the girl’s eyes. He raised an eyebrow, “What were you looking at?”

“l wasn’t looking at anything!” Ye Xingguang quickly averted her gaze and forced herself to ignore the heat on her cheeks.
