When Lu Bancheng saw her move, he abruptly woke up. Afraid that she would be caught in the rain, he quickly walked to the front of the car and closed the door. He then opened the door to the driver's seat, closed the umbrella, and hastily shook off the rainwater on his body before getting into the car.
Xu Wennuan saw that his hair and shoulders were wet, and she looked around the car but didn't find a towel. She then handed him a pack of tissues from the backseat.
Lu Bancheng paused for a moment before he nodded at her and took the tissue.
The two of them still had nothing to talk about, and the atmosphere in the car was still as quiet as before.
Xu Wennuan looked at the raindrops falling on the car window and listened to the sound of the rain outside. She recalled the scene when Lu Bancheng had just gotten out of the car. She didn't know how long she kept thinking about it, but she was so tired that she closed her eyes and fell asleep.
… …
When Xu Wennuan woke up again, the car had already arrived in Lijiang, and the rain had stopped.
Lu Bancheng, who was driving, noticed her movement the moment she moved. He glanced at her through the rearview mirror and asked, "You're awake?"
"Yeah." Xu Wennuan rubbed her eyes and nodded. "What time is it?"
"It's almost two."
"Oh," Xu Wennuan replied and thought, So I've been asleep for a few hours.
Lu Bancheng glanced at Xu Wennuan through the rearview mirror and asked, "Which hotel are you staying at?"
Xu Wennuan told him the name of the hotel.
"Huh?" Lu Bancheng exclaimed, looking a little surprised.
Xu Wennuan seemed to understand something and asked, "Don't tell me you're staying at that hotel too?"
Lu Bancheng didn't answer her, but he replied, "Yeah."
"What a coincidence." Xu Wennuan noticed that Lu Bancheng smiled but didn't say anything. The car fell silent again, and the atmosphere seemed a little tense. She tried to find something to talk about, so she asked, "Which room are you staying in?"
"0001," Lu Bancheng replied.
So it's the villa in the back … Xu Wennuan said, "Oh," and didn't say anything else.
Soon, the car arrived at the hotel.
After Lu Bancheng parked the car, he didn't rush to get out. He waited until Xu Wennuan got out before he followed.
After entering the hotel lobby, he called out to Xu Wennuan and walked toward the ATM in the corner of the lobby.
Xu Wennuan had borrowed 1,000 yuan, but Lu Bancheng withdrew 5,000 yuan and handed it to her.
She's going back to Beijing tomorrow, so she doesn't need so much money … Xu Wennuan counted a thousand dollars and was about to return the rest to him when he said, "Take it. You're not familiar with this place, so there's no harm in bringing more money with you."
Xu Wennuan thought about it and agreed with him. Furthermore, it wasn't as if she wasn't going to return the money, so she accepted it. After thanking him, she remembered that his jacket was still in her arms and hurriedly handed it to him. "Your jacket."
When Lu Bancheng reached out to take it, his fingertips accidentally brushed against Xu Wennuan's, and both of them froze. After a while, Lu Bancheng smoothly picked up his jacket and said to Xu Wennuan calmly, "I'll head back to my room then."
Xu Wennuan hesitated for a moment before she replied, "Okay." She then raised her head and glanced at his face.
Lu Bancheng didn't waste any more time and immediately turned to leave.
After he left the hotel lobby, Xu Wennuan walked toward the elevator.
