Chapter 77: Just Be Stubborn

Qiao Xi's suitcase was big and heavy, and she was holding an umbrella in her hand, making it impossible for her to take down the suitcase herself without struggling.

She was about to give up and put the umbrella down when a hand reached out in front of her, effortlessly lifting the suitcase.

Qiao Xi: "..."

Qiao Xi didn't quite understand his intentions.

Really didn't understand.

So she just stood there, dumbfounded.

"What are you standing there for, not taking your suitcase away?" Shen Dang asked through the heavy curtain of rain.

Both stood under their umbrellas, with the sound of rain around them, seemingly isolating everything nearby; the world seemed to contain only the two of them amidst both the serenity and the noisy raindrops.

The rain was heavy, and through the mist, Qiao Xi could still see Shen Dang's face, its sharp, perfect contours highlighted by his slightly parted, thin lips tinged with faint displeasure.
