Chapter 174: Sending her an umbrella

Over the next few days, Rong Ci found time to participate in two or three more exchange activities.

She also ran into Lin Wu twice.

But Feng Tingshen didn't accompany her either time.

In March, the rain began to increase.

Rong Ci finished participating in the exchange activity, and it started to rain outside.

She had brought an umbrella, but it was in the car and she hadn't brought it down.

She walked toward the main entrance, intending to wait for the rain to ease a bit before leaving.

Before she even reached the entrance, she saw Lin Wu.

Lin Wu was talking to someone, and her smile faded when she saw her.

At this moment, Feng Tingshen's figure holding an umbrella also came into Rong Ci's view.

He must have come specifically to pick up Lin Wu.

He took off his overcoat and draped it over Lin Wu's shoulders.

The people waiting for the rain around them saw this and cast envious glances, and some exclaimed "Wow."

At this moment, Feng Tingshen saw her and paused.

Rong Ci remained expressionless.

Feng Tingshen withdrew his gaze, reopened his umbrella, and left with Lin Wu.

It was quite windy today, and he had given his overcoat to Lin Wu, so even if raindrops drifted into the umbrella, with the barrier of his overcoat, Lin Wu wouldn't be drenched by the rain.

Feng Tingshen doing this could be said to be very thoughtful.

Not long after, their figures disappeared from the entrance.

A while later, Feng Tingshen's driver took an umbrella from the parking lot and walked toward her, handing the umbrella in his hand to her: "Madam, the master asked me to bring an umbrella for you."

Rong Ci didn't take it, saying: "No need, you take it back."

Before, Old Madam Feng said that for Feng Jingxin's sake, Feng Tingshen promised to get along well with her.

Last time at the symposium he showed concern for her, and this time he sent her an umbrella in front of Lin Wu...

Since Lin Wu could generously let Feng Tingshen have someone send her an umbrella, she must have enough confidence in the relationship between her and Feng Tingshen, knowing that Feng Tingshen had no feelings for her and was only showing a little concern when she was in need because of Feng Jingxin.

Feng Tingshen's driver hesitated: "This..."

Rong Ci said: "He won't mind, you go back."

Feng Tingshen's driver heard this, and seeing Rong Ci's firm attitude, had no choice but to take the umbrella and leave.

Afterward, Feng Tingshen's driver really didn't appear again.

But the rain showed no signs of stopping.

Rong Ci checked the time, thinking whether to continue waiting or risk leaving in the rain—

At this moment, a familiar voice sounded in front of her.

"Let's go together, I'll send you."

It was He Zhangbai.

It was almost dark, and if she didn't leave now, she didn't know when she would be able to.

Rong Ci didn't refuse, saying: "Thank you."

He Zhangbai also took off his overcoat, seemingly intending to give it to her as well, Rong Ci said: "No need, I have spare clothes in my car, if my clothes get wet, I have clothes to change into."

He Zhangbai paused, didn't force it, but when he left with her, he turned sideways to block the direction the wind was blowing from.

Rong Ci went down the steps with him and asked: "Is Mr. He also here to participate in the activity?"

No.

He Zhangbai had heard Qi Yuming mention that she had also come to participate in the exchange activity over the past two days.

They hadn't had any important matters to communicate in their work recently, and he hadn't seen her for a while; he really wanted to see her, so he came.

But, looking at her ears that were slightly red from the cold, he said "Yes," and then asked: "Do you have time in a moment? Let's have a meal together?"

He Zhangbai had helped her, and they still had intersections in their work, so having a meal together was actually nothing.

Rong Ci heard this and agreed: "Alright."
