"Big Brother Lu, have you eaten yet?" Xiao Qiao asked in concern.

Xiao Qiao looked at the meal that had already been eaten and felt quite bored: "Then get someone to prepare one for you."

But... After Xiao Qiao finished eating, she immediately picked up another set of tableware and started to eat. Only then, Xiao Qiao completely understood the meaning of his words.

Xiao Qiao looked at Lu Yu Bei's calm face and his gentle manner as he ate the food he had just eaten half-way down to the last second. No matter how hard he tried, he couldn't calm down.

After dinner, Lu Yu Bei suddenly asked a question towards Xiao Qiao: "Are you afraid of thunder and lightning?"

Xiao Qiao was startled for a moment, then said: "If the noise is too loud, and it is too sudden, I would be afraid."

The next moment, Lu Yu Bei spoke up. "The weather forecast says that there will be a thunderstorm tonight, accompanied by thunder and lightning …"

Just as he said that, a report came in from the news section of the television, followed by … Xiao Qiao had originally wanted to distract himself, so she took a look at it. However, she didn't expect it to be a notice regarding the storm and the orange colored warning.

In the air, there was a moment of silence.

Xiao Qiao cleared her throat: "Big Brother Lu, since there's a storm tonight … …"

Lu Yu Bei suddenly raised his head, his eyes looking straight at Xiao Qiao, hoping for her next words.

Xiao Qiao avoided Lu Yu Bei's gaze and continued: "It's better for Big Brother Lu to return earlier, in case I'm stuck in a traffic jam.

After hearing these words, Lu Yu Bei's heart instantly went cold. She would let him stay. Didn't she just say that he was afraid of lightning and thunder?

Why did he say that to chase him away?

"Xiao Qiao wants me to leave so quickly?" Lu Yu Bei raised his eyebrows and asked softly.

The words that came out of his mouth were thought-provoking.

"..." Xiao Qiao didn't know how to respond to these words.

Lu Yu Bei stood up and walked towards Xiao Qiao. His eyes were clearer than ever as he looked at Xiao Qiao quietly and said: "Tonight, in the torrential rain, there will definitely be thunder and lightning. If you are afraid, I will stay behind to accompany you."

Hearing that, Xiao Qiao suddenly raised her gaze, and her bright eyes bumped into Lu Yu Bei's deep eyes without any warning.

Never in her wildest dreams did she expect that Lu Yu Bei would take the initiative to offer to accompany her.

However... How could she answer?

Will you answer "okay"?

Or the answer: a single man and a single woman, they were not suitable to be together.

Both answers were at a loss.

Suddenly, a thunderclap split the sky and a torrential downpour came crashing down; the heavens seemed to have made a choice for her.

Lu Yu Bei pursed his lips, smiled lightly, and looked at Xiao Qiao with a little innocence: "The driver just drove me here, he's already gone back, I didn't bring anything."

The meaning behind his words was this: I don't have a car nor an umbrella, but you still want to drive me away?

This was the first time Xiao Qiao felt that the Big Brother Lu was a black-hearted person. She couldn't say it out loud.

"..."

Fortunately, Xiao Qiao's house was in a high-levelled VIP room. It was spacious and independent, just right for Lu Yu Bei to stay in.

That night, Xiao Qiao was watching TV with her as she took time to process some of the documents in her mailbox.

Because they were dealing with daily mails, they didn't have to worry about it, so … It's easier.

"Big Brother Lu, do you have to work this late every day?" Xiao Qiao's words were filled with heartache.

"Most of the time." Lu Yu Bei nodded.

"Then you still need to rest."

"Un, are you tired?" Lu Yu Bei put down his phone and asked.

With Lu Yu Bei mentioning it, Xiao Qiao felt really tired, but he still opened his mouth: "After you finish handling your work, I'll sleep again."

"No need to wait for me. You sleep first." Lu Yu Bei said: "I will go inside."

"En!" Xiao Qiao nodded.

However... When he slept until midnight, Xiao Qiao realized a serious problem. At night, when she was with the Big Brother Lu, she was a little nervous, so … I just drank some more water, and now I really want to go to the bathroom.

However, since the nurse wasn't here, he could only rely on himself.

His ankle was still red and swollen.

If he were to land on the ground, he would definitely feel a great deal of pain. Therefore … Xiao Qiao could only use one foot to support himself as he slowly walked towards the washroom.

In the room inside, Lu Yu Bei had actually just finished cleaning up, and had just taken a simple bath. He had just lied on his bed, and when he heard the sound of footsteps, he did not have the time to turn on the light. When he saw Xiao Qiao's figure, he directly took advantage of the moonlight and walked out.

As soon as he saw Xiao Qiao walking on the ground, he immediately followed him.

Xiao Qiao was initially focused on walking, but suddenly she saw a figure through the haze. The person was so scared that they were almost out of their wits, and panic-stricken "Ah …" She made a sound.

Lu Yu Bei immediately grabbed her wrist and softly explained: "Xiao Qiao, don't be afraid, it's me!"

"Oh!" Xiao Qiao took a deep breath, patted her chest and slowly calmed down.

"Big Brother Lu, why did you come out?" Xiao Qiao asked.

"I just came out when I saw you. What are you doing up so late?" Lu Yu Bei asked in concern.

Xiao Qiao's face instantly flushed red. Fortunately it was in the darkness of the night, otherwise … It must be like the clouds, always feeling a bit embarrassed.

Seeing that Xiao Qiao was silent, Lu Yu Bei could roughly guess what was going on. He bent his body and quickly picked up Xiao Qiao: "I'll carry you there."

Carry her?

Could it be … Did Big Brother Lu already know what she was going to do?

When he was carried by Lu Yu Bei, Xiao Qiao realized that he had just finished showering and was wearing a white bathrobe, which released a chilly and pleasant fragrance.

It lingered at the tip of his nose, giving off an indescribably pleasant fragrance.

Within a few short steps, both of them were silent.

Lu Yu Bei put Xiao Qiao down in front of the bathroom and carefully opened her mouth: "I'm going to smoke.

With a single sentence, it had very easily resolved the embarrassment and shyness on Xiao Qiao's face, and her heart had relaxed by quite a bit.

However, when he entered, because the light in the room was not on, Xiao Qiao staggered a little, instinctively she reached out her hand, and grabbed onto the bag of Lu Yu Bei's bathrobe.
