Gu Nianzhi lifted her bag over her head, and ran towards Mei Xiawen.
The umbrella wasn't quite big enough for the two of them; they stumbled awkwardly under it as they made their way to the car park outside the library.
The umbrella was tilted towards Gu Nianzhi the whole way. Mei Xiawen was already drenched on one side when he finally got in the car and put the umbrella away.
"Xiawen, do you have a change of clothes in your car? You should take off your windbreaker and put on some dry clothes," Gu Nianzhi said, in case he hadn't thought of it.
She was only human, made of flesh and blood. How could she not care about him?
Mei Xiawen had been very good to her, and she knew it. She was so moved by his sincerity she had changed the way she addressed him, without even realizing it herself.
Mei Xiawen was ecstatic to hear Gu Nianzhi call him by his first name. He smiled widely, and said, "No worries. This windbreaker is waterproof."
