When Fu Huaichu spoke those words, Su Zhiruan couldn't help but widen her eyes.
"You two..." The woman's gaze fell on Su Zhiruan and then on Fu Huaichu. Her friend tugged at her sleeve, signaling her to leave quickly, "I apologize for any disturbance caused just now, please don't take it to heart."
After bowing, she and her companion hurriedly left the area.
"Brother Erniu... what you just said..."
In the rain, Su Zhiruan stepped forward, holding the umbrella high over Fu Huaichu.
At this moment, both of them stood facing each other under the umbrella.
Fu Huaichu noticed her slender shoulders had been soaked by the rain on one side, her delicate face hidden under the bamboo hat. From his angle, he could only see the girl's fair and round chin.
"You've gotten wet," Fu Huaichu didn't answer her, but instead looked at her slim shoulders and asked, "Are you cold?"
As he spoke, he started to remove her bamboo hat.
