After rebirth, my new love and I made it real

On the stage, Yuan Qi was interacting with fans in the first row.

The fans' screams filled the entire venue.

Amidst the noise, Lu Siheng's dark eyes were calm, as still as a mountain, like a Buddha.

After the cheers, his eyes swept lightly to the left front and paused slightly.

"Mr. Lu."

"Mr. Lu?"

The customer shouted several times before Lu Siheng's attention was drawn back.

"what?"

He looked at the people around him in confusion, but in his heart he was thinking, why does the back of the head I just saw... look so much like Lin Qingran?

"Do you feel it? It's raining heavily outside." said the customer.

The art gallery is completely enclosed and you cannot see the outside while sitting inside.

But the air became noticeably humid.

Lu Siheng frowned and said, "I feel it."

"..."

There was lightning and thunder outside.

The sky became darker than the night. Heavy rain poured down from the sky, madly washing the glass exterior wall of the art gallery, almost rolling down the glass like a waterfall.

The water on the road was so deep that one-third of the tires of the cars parked in the open-air parking lot were submerged in the water.

Gu Yichen looked out the window with heavy eyes; the rain blocked his entire vision.

"Mr. Gu, are we leaving now?" asked the driver.

Gu Yichen didn't say anything, but frowned, not knowing what he was thinking.

Suddenly, without saying a word, he opened the car door, pulled out a black umbrella from the gap in the door, and got out of the car.

As soon as the leather shoes touched the ground, they were filled with water in an instant.

He opened his umbrella in the rain, and walked in the direction he came from with difficulty holding the umbrella in the wind and rain.

Yuan Qi's popularity was so high that the cars parked outside the museum stretched to the streets several kilometers away. Gu Yichen's car was parked two kilometers away from the art gallery.

The driver got out of the car and chased after Gu Yichen through the water. "Mr. Gu, why are you going back in such heavy rain?"

Gu Yichen didn't even turn his head and said, "Go pick someone up."

-

The concert lasted a full five hours.

When the show ended, it was still raining.

The water on the road got deeper.

Messages frequently popped up on my phone: traffic jams, rising river levels, impassable roads...

Only after Lin Qingran walked out of the venue did she realize how serious the problem was.

"It's raining so hard." Bai Shirui looked at the rain outside like a waterfall and said worriedly, "Our car is parked two kilometers away. How can we go in such heavy rain?"

After saying that, Bai Shirui looked at Lin Qingran's trouser legs and hesitated, "Ranran, you..."

Lin Qingran knew what she was worried about.

She has skin allergies and when she was a child she had rashes on the sides of her feet after stepping into water several times.

Especially on rainy days, the water on the road is full of unknown bacteria and various dust particles. She has sensitive skin and will have allergic symptoms every time she steps in water during the rain.

Their car was parked far away and the road was congested, so they had no choice but to step on water.

Lin Qingran squatted down and rolled up her trouser legs, and said calmly: "It's okay, I can go, I just need to go back and apply some medicine."

There were special medicines for her in the medicine box at home, and skin allergies were not a big deal, so Lin Qingran didn't think it was a big deal.

As she spoke, she was about to step into the rain.

Suddenly, a hand reached out from behind and grabbed her.

"Don't be so stubborn, I'll carry you."

It was Gu Yichen's voice.

Lin Qingran hasn't reacted yet.

After Gu Yichen pulled her over, he squatted down in front of her and said, "Come up."

Lin Qingran looked at him in a daze.

After a while, he reacted and refused coldly: "No need."

Gu Yichen turned around, frowning, "What's wrong? It's not like I haven't carried you like this before."

When Lin Qingran was fourteen years old, she was in the first year of high school and he was in the third year.

One night after self-study, it rained heavily like this.

He passed by the Grade 1 teaching building holding an umbrella and saw Lin Qingran standing in front of the building, motionless.

Students opened their umbrellas one after another and walked into the rain. There were fewer and fewer people, until almost everyone had left, and Lin Qingran was still standing there alone.

Gu Yichen didn't know where he got the patience to watch her for so long with an umbrella from a distance. When she was the only one left in front of the teaching building, he walked up to her.

"Didn't you bring an umbrella?"

When Lin Qingran heard the voice, she turned back to look at him, as if she was stunned for a moment, and said a little slowly: "I brought it."

She took out a folding umbrella from the side of her schoolbag and waved it in front of him.

"Then why don't you leave?" Gu Yichen felt that he was not a nosy person.

But that day he just asked.

Lin Qingran looked down at her feet wearing white sneakers and whispered, "My feet are prone to allergies and rashes when they come into contact with puddles on the road."

"Didn't your family come to pick you up?" Gu Yichen asked again.

In his impression, Lin Qingran was a person who was always followed by bodyguards and drivers whenever she traveled. She was already very spoiled, and when her family knew about this situation, they would definitely send someone to pick her up as soon as possible.

"I don't know. I'm waiting."

At that time, mobile phones were not allowed in class, so Lin Qingran usually went to the designated location at the school gate to find her car. When it rained heavily, the bodyguard would pick her up at the entrance of the teaching building and carry her all the way there.

But this time, for some reason, no one came to pick her up.

Gu Yichen stuffed the umbrella into her hands, squatted down in front of her, and said, "Come on up, I'll carry you."

Lin Qingran must have liked him at that time, and seemed a little shy.

She quietly refused, "No, I'll wait and someone will come pick me up."

"If they haven't come yet, I guess something happened on the way. How long are you going to wait?" Gu Yichen urged, "It's getting late, come up."

The umbrella in Lin Qingran's hand still retained the warmth of his palm.

Perhaps it was the love she had for him at that time that made her stare at the thin back of the boy in front of her, and finally she slowly leaned over him.

The first time Gu Yichen carried someone on his back was Lin Qingran.

Afterwards, he never figured out why he had to meddle in other people's affairs.

Anyway, that day he carried Lin Qingran steadily, walked nearly a kilometer, let her get in his car, and sent her back to the Lin family.

Lin Qingran was of light build, and now thinking back on it, that journey was not difficult for her to walk.

The wind was strong and the rain was heavy. The rain kept hitting the umbrella and then falling down along the edge of the umbrella.

The umbrella Lin Qingran held in her hand kept him covered tightly, but her own back was still wet from the rain.

Gu Yichen remembered these past events, and Lin Qingran naturally remembered them too.

If Gu Yichen had not broken her legs and thrown her into the wilderness, if her family had not been destroyed, if she had not felt that kind of pain, she might have felt that Gu Yichen was really doing it for her own good when he carried her on his back all the way out of the teaching building.

Later, I discovered that if you dissect Gu Yichen's appearance and look at his inner self, you will find that he has always been the selfish and unscrupulous Gu Yichen.

Never changed.

Now, Lin Qingran looked at this man, watching him squatting in front of her like he did six years ago, but without the same throbbing as before, instead there was only a coldness like stagnant water.
