Feng Ciye curled his lips and said warmly, "Go sit at the water bar first. I’ve reserved a spot over there, and there’s air conditioning."
Su Li looked at him gratefully, not caring anymore that Fourth Master Feng was Feng Huaijin’s enemy.
With the rescue just now, Feng Ciye’s position in her heart instantly rose by several tiers.
From these recent interactions, Su Li felt... Feng Ciye wasn’t that bad.
A genuinely helpful person.
Though Su Li vaguely felt he had other motives.
Su Li was a bit puffed up; she had always considered Feng Huaijin’s perspective, believing herself to be on his side. Just yesterday, she even subtly warned Feng Ciye.
Yet today, as she nearly turned into dried fish, Feng Huaijin hadn’t even made a single call to check on her!
In comparison, Feng Ciye’s image in her mind magnified several times over.
As soon as she entered the water bar, the cool air conditioning almost made Su Li cry. It was so refreshing!
The waiter brought over two cups of milk tea.
Su Li exclaimed, "Why isn’t it iced? It’s at room temperature?"
Feng Ciye smiled, "Drinking too much cold stuff isn’t good; excessive intake can cause health issues."
Su Li nodded, comfortably sprawling onto the sofa, feeling great.
After enjoying the air conditioning for a while, the heat in her body slowly dissipated. Sitting across from Feng Ciye, Su Li began to feel awkward.
She and Feng Ciye didn’t really have much to talk about.
The man seemed to have noticed Su Li’s discomfort; he took out two books, his slender, fair fingers gently pushing them over, "Care to read?"
Su Li was secretly amazed; this man was incredibly considerate, sensitive enough to spot others’ awkwardness in an instant and easily alleviate it.
As Su Li took the book and started reading, her discomfort eased once more.
"Isn’t Fourth Young Master Feng Miss Chen Yu’s fiancé? Why not look for her?" Su Li asked curiously as she flipped through the book.
Holding a cup of plain milk tea with his slender fingers, he took a small sip, "She’s doing supplementary military training next year; she shouldn’t need my care now."
Su Li’s gaze shifted from the trees to Feng Ciye, always feeling that his relationship with Ling Chenyu... wasn’t very good.
Even if their relationship wasn’t good, they were engaged. Meeting privately with Feng Ciye seemed inappropriate? Tʜe source of this ᴄontent ɪs novelFɪre.net
Yet, she was reluctant to leave the water bar.
Feng Ciye’s gaze fell on her, and with a gentle sound from the chair, he stood up and smiled, "I have something to attend to. You stay a while longer and return to the field when ready."
Watching Feng Ciye leave, Su Li began to ponder.
Did he see what she was thinking? Is that why he left voluntarily?
Looking at the room temperature milk tea in front of her, Su Li sighed and rested her head on the table.
Feng Ciye really gave her a good impression, so gentle he could melt water and always considerate, being around him was really pleasant.
Su Li stayed in the water bar for nearly an hour before wandering out.
As she exited, the sun’s heat pouring down made Su Li frown further.
Why hasn’t it rained yet? I’ve heard it’s not supposed to rain in Jiangzhou Prefecture during this time!
Su Li took out her phone for a quick glance, immediately snorting.
Feng Huaijin hadn’t sent any messages or made any calls!
"Feng Huaijin, you bastard..."
A loud "boom" interrupted Su Li’s words.
Holding her phone, Su Li blankly looked up at the sky.
Clouds gradually covered the sun, and a breeze began to blow.
Large raindrops started to fall, landing on Su Li’s cheeks, bringing a burst of coolness.
Su Li stood in a daze for a moment; wasn’t it supposed to be no rain in Jiangzhou Prefecture recently?
