Lu Si gave her a sidelong glance, his lips slightly curving upwards. He took the umbrella and held it over both of their heads. “Hypocritical woman, I’m giving you this favor for now.”

They hadn’t walked far when they saw Jiang He approaching with an umbrella. He was worried that Master Si might get sick due to the rain. He knew that if he caught a cold, his old man would probably tear him apart when he returned to the capital.

Holding the umbrella and keeping his head down to watch the path, he hadn’t even noticed that he had walked right up to them.

Lu Si cleared his throat, startling Jiang He, who had been in his own world. He almost collided with them.

“Master Si? What’s going on…?” Jiang He looked at Lu Si and then at Mei Shu, who was standing very close to him. Suddenly, he felt like he had done something very unnecessary.

He quickly corrected himself, “Master Si, I came to give you and Miss Mei Shu an umbrella. Just now, Mr. Lu asked me to come, so I’ll be on my way!”

Saying this, he directly handed the umbrella to Lu Si and then ran back to the villa that he had just come from, braving the rain.

Mei Shu couldn’t help but smirk, “Could his lie have been any less convincing?”

Lu Si held the umbrella, placed the coat over his arm, and glanced at her. “What lie? Why don’t you believe he was telling the truth? Have you become so self-absorbed that you think he was creating a private space for us?”

Mei Shu replied,”…” Wasn’t it the case?

Lu Si met her accusatory gaze and continued confidently, “Miss Mei Shu, I think you’ve misunderstood. I don’t have those intentions toward you anymore. We can’t even be considered friends at this point. I helped you today because you’re on the Lu Family’s property. If that causes you to have any unrealistic misconceptions, then 1 apologize.”

Mei Shu raised an eyebrow, nodded solemnly, and said, “1 understand. It seems Jiang He has conveyed my message quite well. Since you put it that way, 1 won’t trouble you. I’ll leave now.”

She was about to rush out into the rain.

Although it was pouring heavily outside, running quickly would get her home in ten minutes at most.

Getting wet wouldn’t be a big deal; she could take a hot bath to warm up afterward.

No need to listen to their passive-aggressive comments.

“You can’t leave!” Lu Si pulled her arm without thinking, and when Mei Shu turned to look at him, he found a suitable reason, “If you leave like this, your family will definitely think that the Lu Family bullied you. Although the Mei Family can’t compare to us, I don’t want any unfavorable gossip about the Lu Family to spread.”

“Don’t worry, people from the Mei Family aren’t gossipy. Nobody will say anything bad about your family.” Mei Shu said as she tried to free herself from his grasp.

However, Lu Si’s strength was not something she could easily break free from.

What was this man made of? Even someone as strong as her couldn’t deal with him!

“I don’t believe it! Just by looking at your current attitude, I’m sure you won’t speak well of the Lu Family when you get home. You have to come with me today!” Lu Si said firmly, not giving her a chance to refuse.

He lifted her up and carried her in the rain while holding the umbrella.

Mei Shu was shocked and momentarily forgot to resist.

After a while, she regained her senses, gritted her teeth, and whispered in his ear, “Is this the Lu Family’s way of treating guests?”

Her warm breath sprayed into his ear, causing a tingling sensation, as if it had driven away the cold from outside in that instant.

Lu Si even felt a bit hot.

He didn’t want to answer because he felt guilty. He walked faster in the rain, only slowing down once he reached the entrance of the villa.

“Don’t get the wrong idea. I just think you talk too much and waste time.”

Lu Si said this with some reluctance, then went inside and instructed the servant to prepare a set of clean clothes for Mei Shu to change into.

“No need, just lend me an umbrella, and I’ll change when 1 get home,” Mei Shu stood at the door without any intention of going inside.

Lu Si’s face darkened, and he was about to say something when a sudden flash of lightning and the following thunder rattled the windows.

The butler quickly closed the windows and said, “Master Si, there’s hail outside! It’s too dangerous to go out now.”

Mei Shu thought, “Did Lu Si secretly consult a sorcerer? How else could the rain be so perfectly aligned with his mood?”

Lu Si was no longer in a hurry. He calmly used a towel to dry her hair and said, “It’s alright, Miss Mei is incredibly brave. A little hail is nothing. Even if it hits her on the head, it’s just a minor injury. Go and get her an umbrella and send her on her way.”

The butler, not understanding the tension between Lu Si and Mei Shu as well as Jiang He did, still tried to persuade, saying, “Master Si, Miss Mei really can’t go out now. The rain is too heavy, and even the car can’t be driven. It’s not safe for Miss Mei to go out alone.”

“So what should we do?” Lu Si tossed the towel to a servant and calmly sipped a cup of hot tea..
