Chapter 402: Chapter 403 Rain Curtain (3)
This was a habit she developed during her college years when coursework put a lot of pressure on her, she liked to drag Qin Zhigu to run with her on the playground.
However, the most she ran was during those darkest times when her parents divorced, Qin Zhigu broke up with her, and her mother fell sick again. All the close people around her were of no help. Although she hooked up with Qin Zhiyou, she knew there was no love between them, just revenge.
Although she was good at provoking Qin Zhigu every day, the stress was still immense. Her mother was critically ill, Bai Changyou wouldn’t give her money, and Qin Zhiyou didn’t have the power he has now. He was struggling under the oppression of his uncle and aunt. Qin Zhigu was still the best candidate to be the successor, and Bai Changyou’s Bai Family was thriving.
At that time, when she moved into the Qin Family mansion, Qin Zhiyou couldn’t be with her every day. Whenever she was bullied by the second and third households, when Bai Changyou took Cai Yiren to see Qin Zhigu, she would go out for a run.
Running around the mountain path, from the bottom to the top, and then running down, she completely sweated, feeling sore all over. It seemed only then could she eliminate the brooding feeling in her heart.
Lu Weixi had been working for several years and, because of the uniqueness of her job, she often had to run around. Despite not having systematic exercise, her health was always good. She was wearing a sport shirt and sneakers, her hair tied in a ponytail and wearing a headband, running up the mountain path.
It was summer now, and thunderstorms were frequent. Today’s weather was gloomy and a bit stuffy. Along the way, she vaguely saw low-flying dragonflies and birds. However, the focus was, after not long running, Lu Weixi discovered someone was following her. When turning the corner, she took a quick look back and found out that it was actually Qin Zhigu.
There were about ten meters between Qin Zhigu and her, and he obviously didn’t try to catch up. Apparently, he didn’t intend to chat her up, he probably saw her go out and just followed for fear of any accidents.
Unfortunately, things didn’t go as planned. Qin Zhigu didn’t intend to catch up, but, a raindrop fell harshly on his nose tip. Looking up, he saw increasingly dense raindrops falling from the sky, a sudden rainstorm had come.
They had run quite a distance, and it would take over ten minutes to get back. After Qin Zhigu looked around, he noticed a gazebo not far ahead. He had no choice but to run a few steps faster and take shelter in the gazebo.
Lu Weixi was also there, wiping her sweat and raindrops on her face with a workout towel. The two stood on either side without saying a word.
The rain was pouring down, like a big net, capturing everything beneath it.
Qin Zhigu stood to a side, although silent, he was secretly watching her. Lu Weixi, in her sportswear, her hair tied in a high ponytail, one wouldn’t guess that she was already twenty-seven years old. She looked as pure as a college student, it felt like he was back in the past.
There is a certain saying that the sexiest moment for a woman is not after a love affair, nor when she is brightly dressed up. It’s when her face is sweaty, and her clothes soaked in sweat. The faint scent of a woman emanating in the air is the smell of femininity in full bloom.
Regarding the past, Qin Zhigu didn’t have time to regret. He knew that when Lu Weixi was angry, frustrated, or mad, she would go running. So did Liu Yiyi’s appearance at the company today upset her?
He wanted to comfort her, but he knew that she no longer needed his comfort.
