The black Bugatti was speeding through the rain, and the wipers kept working. Just as the glass of the front window was swept clean, the next moment the rain covered it again.

Lu Yanbei's brows furrowed deeper and deeper, his expression as gloomy as the heavy rain outside.

It wasn't until a figure appeared in the bus booth not far away that the man's frown slowly relaxed.

Ji Xingchen sat on the bench and looked worried at the heavy rain.

What should I do? The tender failed, my mobile phone is out of battery, I have no money in my pocket, and I can’t even take a taxi.

Just when she was at a loss what to do, a heavy shadow came over her head. Ji Xingchen subconsciously raised his head, and when he saw the person clearly, his heart trembled suddenly.

The man stood with an umbrella raised. The rain was so heavy that half of his shoulders were already soaked. Water droplets flowed down his strong jawline and dripped on the back of Ji Xingchen's hands.

She was stunned and murmured: "Lu Yanbei..."

Lu Yanbei's eyes were very dark. The glasses he usually wore were not on the bridge of his nose today. There was a hint of tiredness and anxiety between his brows.

After sighing for a while, he slowly squatted down and looked at Ji Xingchen at eye level: "Why don't you go home?"

Ji Xingchen curled his lips and whispered: "I wanted to go out for a walk, but I didn't expect it was raining and my phone was out of battery. I don't know where to go."

Lu Yanbei said nothing. He took off his coat and put it on the woman: "Let's go home."

"Oh." Ji Xingchen sniffed and followed Lu Yanbei obediently.

The umbrella was very big, but it was all tilted towards her, and half of the man's body was in the humid air.

Ji Xingchen carefully poked the handle of the umbrella and tried to push the umbrella towards Lu Yanbei.

Lu Yanbei glanced sideways at her: "Don't move."

"……oh."

The car stopped aside, and it wasn't until he got into the car that Ji Xingchen's cold body gradually regained some warmth.

She carefully wiped the water droplets on her face with a paper towel, and then took out a few more to wipe with Lu Yanbei.

Lu Yanbei didn't drive in a hurry and waited patiently for her movements.

The car was a little quiet for a while.

Finally, Lu Yanbei was the first to break the silence: "Did the bidding fail?"

Ji Xingchen's men moved for a moment, then said a lackluster "Hmm".

Lu Yanbei raised his eyelids slightly and said in a deep voice: "There are a total of twelve companies participating in the bidding this time, five of which specialize in real estate development. Ji's main business scope is hotels and resorts, and the real estate sector is also

It’s not Ji’s main attack. Lu’s offered a 1.5% higher point this time. With the money in place, it’s reasonable to win the tender, so you don’t have to feel depressed.”

Ji Xingchen looked at him in shock, as if he didn't expect him to explain this to him.

Lu Yanbei sighed and touched her cheek with his palm, "Xingchen, you are already very good. You can make plans alone, and you can stay up late and work overtime with colleagues for a project. You have written a complete plan and ppt. Enterprise

It is common to fail in competition, and I will fail too, so... don't be unhappy."

The man's voice was hoarse, his passionate peach blossom eyes stared at her for a moment, and he spoke to her seriously.

I will fail too, so don't feel bad about failure.

Ji Xingchen's heart suddenly jumped hard, and there was a dense itching all around him.

Are you unhappy? It's out of question.

But the disappointment and frustration are real.

She had worked hard for so long and stayed up so many nights, thinking that at least there would be a glimmer of hope, but she didn't expect to be rejected in the second round. Her overbearing self-esteem was cracked today.

Even if she couldn't bear this blow, she still couldn't help but feel her heart throb when this man coaxed her softly.

She could clearly hear her heart beating like a drum.

Acting faster than her mind, she unbuckled her seat belt, leaned forward and kissed Lu Yanbei.

A kiss without any structure is enough to make people move.

When she was about to leave, the man pressed the back of her head with a big hand, aggravating the kiss.

Heavy rain fell outside the car window, and the temperature inside the car gradually increased.
