When Aurelia said this, she sounded extremely serious. At the same time, she gave off a rare youthful feminine vibe. This was a little different from her usual image.
Therefore, Alvin did not think too much about it and replied, "Sure."
According to Aurelia, they first met when it was a gray and rainy day.
Alvin thought that if he was the one who reincarnated, he would perhaps also want to relive the memories that left such a deep impression on him. Hence, he followed Aurelia's idea.
"The umbrella is in the trunk. Don't forget to take it."
After Aurelia said that, she got out of the car. She didn't take the umbrella with her, so the raindrops started falling on her.
After taking a couple of steps, she started to dance. It was obvious that she had good dancing skills. She danced as she walked, like a graceful white deer.
She wanted to relive the first time they met.
...
For Aurelia, that was five years ago.
She used to be an ordinary dance student.
That day, she bought a white dress that she was pleased with. Thus, she was extremely happy.
She walked around in it, sang, and danced, not caring what others thought about her.
She decided against bringing an umbrella as it did not match her white dress.
But that day, there was a sudden thunderstorm.
Aurelia was stuck under a tree as she tried to avoid the rain.
A girl's mood could change easily. She was still excited a moment ago. However, when she looked at the gray sky, she felt increasingly sad.
She wanted to show how beautiful she was to the world, but now it seemed that the heavens were dead set against it.
So she felt that it did not matter anymore. She stepped into the rain and did not care that she had just bought this set of clothes.
She planned to go back to the dorm, wash her clothes, go to bed and end the day early.
But just as she walked out of the tree, she saw someone walking over from afar.
It was Alvin.
Alvin was wearing a suit that didn't fit him. He looked like he had encountered some difficulties in life. He held a small black umbrella in his hand.
Alvin glanced at her and frowned for a long time.
Then he came closer and took the initiative to talk to Aurelia.
"You didn't bring an umbrella? Do you want me to share my umbrella with you until you reach your destination?"
Aurelia was wary of strangers, so she waved her hand, intending to refuse his offer.
She replied, "No need."
"I'll give you the umbrella then. You can take it."
He seemed to have foreseen this and thus, stuffed the umbrella in her hand. Alvin was now exposed to the rain.
Of course, Aurelia could not accept the kindness of a stranger. She quickly explained, "It's fine, it's fine. I just like to get caught in the rain."
Due to her appearance, everyone was kind to Aurelia ever since she was a child. At first, Aurelia was proud of it. But as she got older, she gradually became calmer. She no longer accepted other people's gifts casually.
If she took the umbrella, it meant that she had to let a stranger get caught in the rain.
"What a coincidence. I also like to get caught in the rain," said Alvin.
Then, he used his suit jacket to cover his head and quickly walked away.
Aurelia was stunned for a long time. She stood there somewhat at a loss while she held the umbrella.
When she wanted to chase after him, she could no longer catch up to him.
When Aurelia returned to the dormitory with the umbrella, the wind had dried whichever part of her body that was drenched by the rain earlier.
When the roommates saw the umbrella, they couldn't help but tease her. The umbrella obviously looked like it belonged to a man. After Aurelia angrily explained everything, she put the umbrella in the drawer.
As she held the umbrella, she saw a company name printed on it.
After finding the address of the company, Aurelia took some time to drop by the company after work hours.
In less than ten minutes, Alvin walked out of the building after work.
When she returned the umbrella to Alvin, he was shocked. It was a funny sight.
"You didn't have to do this. You even went out of your way to pass it back to me... I truly wish you nothing but the best. You're a kind-hearted person."
"I'll explain to the colleagues who saw us. I'll let them know that you're selling umbrellas. With that, there won't be any unnecessary impact on your reputation."
That was Alvin's answer at the time.
Aurelia smiled.
Then, she deliberately reached out and spilled the coffee cup Alvin was holding in his hand.
Using the excuse of compensating him for the coffee, she managed to get the chance to meet him again.
Aurelia did not mind being a little sly, especially since it was rare for her to have a favorable impression of someone.
Their love began at this point.
...
'She really looks like a little deer jumping around,' Alvin thought while he looked at Aurelia through the car window.
After looking at her for a while, Alvin got out of the car.
In the trunk, he had indeed found a small black umbrella. It had a plastic handle and was made of nylon. It looked very ordinary and even cheap.
Placing this kind of umbrella in the trunk really did not match the Bugatti car.
But Alvin couldn't care less about that.
He picked up the umbrella, stepped on the puddles, and quickly chased after Aurelia.
At this moment, Aurelia had found a tree. She leaned against the tree with her snow-white clothes. Her eyes flickered.
"Why don't you use the umbrella? You'll get wet," asked Alvin.
However, the answer he got was, "I like to get caught in the rain."
There was a hint of anticipation in her eyes as Aurelia replied to him with that answer.
In her big eyes, Alvin could see his reflection and the gray sky.
"Ah?"
Alvin didn't know what the h*ll was happening, but his instincts told him that there must be something going on.
Aurelia had said earlier that she wanted to relive their first meeting. She then proceeded to travel so far to find a place that rained... this meant that their first meeting was in the rain.
Before getting out of the car, she specifically asked Alvin to bring an umbrella. However, Aurelia didn't bring one herself.
This meant that he had probably given her an umbrella during their first meeting.
Alvin thought about it carefully, and it was in line with his usual style of doing things. His cheap suit was designed to be wearable and moisture-resistant, so a little rain wouldn't be a problem.
If he met someone who needed help, he would probably give the umbrella away. He would all the more do so if the person who needed help was a beautiful woman.
However, at this critical moment, Aurelia acted reserved and refused the umbrella.
Alvin understood that he had to adopt a more uncompromising attitude at this moment.
So he said seriously, "Miss, I won't allow you to fight with me for the right to be in the rain."
Then, he stuffed the black umbrella into Aurelia's hands.
Aurelia immediately threw the umbrella on the ground with a smile on her face. "Although the lines are different, I like your sense of humor."
After she said that, Aurelia opened her arms and hugged him tightly.
"Alvin, I'm back."
