Chapter 945 Umbrella

Because of the brief contact yesterday, he had the courage to step forward.

When he saw the girl smile at him and say "It's you", all his worries disappeared.

"Hello, my name is Lu Huan."

He did what he had always wanted to do but never had the courage to do.

He wanted to get to know this girl.

"Lu Huan."

Hearing the girl calling his name, he felt his heart blossoming.

"My name is Hu Yingying."

"The Ying of the jacaranda."

"Hu... Yingying."

He smiled a little silly, what a nice name.

……

Then, they got to know each other naturally.

But the time they spent together was limited to the time they spent on the subway and the distance between them and the subway exit.

He tried to ask for the other party's contact information, but was told that she didn't have a mobile phone.

He was stunned. Although he said it was okay, he thought in his heart that the girl didn't want to tell her the contact information.

After all, in today's society, what young person is there without a mobile phone?!
It's impossible no matter how you think about it.

What's more, the person who said she didn't have a mobile phone on her was a girl who liked to wear Lolita style clothes and had no autistic tendencies at all.

No matter how you look at it, her not having a cell phone seems like a subtle rejection.

After all, no matter how much you dislike electronic devices, in today's society, to exaggerate, it is almost impossible to take a single step without a mobile phone.

……

He never asked for the other party's contact information again.

Moreover, during their subsequent interactions, he had never seen the girl use a cell phone.

This made him doubt his original judgment.

Could it be that what the girl said at that time was not an excuse, but the truth?

……

But he saw part of the girl's body disappear again, leaving him no time to think about anything else.

The second time he saw the girl's other shoulder disappear.

He was filled with horror.

But the girl refused to tell him anything.

He looked at the girl's body which was always missing parts, and the initial horror on his face was no longer there.

After all, it wasn't the first time he had seen it, so he was somewhat immune to it.

Last Saturday when he was taking the subway back to school, he looked down at the girl as usual, and the gentle smile on his lips froze.

He actually discovered that the girl's head was missing? !
He was really scared.

It's so scary.

After that, he even developed a subconscious fear of girls.

He began to doubt the girl's true identity.

He wondered if he should stop having contact with girls.

The only time he could meet the girl was during the short subway ride on weekends.

He made no effort to look for the girl the next morning.

For the first time during this period, he arrived at the student's home fifteen minutes earlier than the class time, just like he did at the beginning.

Ever since he met the girl, out of his selfish desire to spend more time with her, he almost always arrived at the student's home on time.

However, he was distracted during the class that day.

He asked students to do the questions on their own and ask him if they didn't understand.

When he was free, he couldn't help thinking of the girl.

He wondered, would the girl look for him?

Will she wonder why she didn't see him today?

No way?

The girl always passively accepted his approach.

Refusing to tell him anything.

He always felt that since the girl couldn't see him, she would just be confused for a moment and wouldn't care, right?

After all, when it comes down to it, they have nothing to do with each other.

……

After class, it rained heavily.

Fortunately, he checked the weather forecast before going out in the morning and packed an umbrella in his schoolbag. He hurried to the subway station, feeling a little nervous.

He found that even though he was wary of the girl's identity and even though he was horrified by the inexplicable disappearance of parts of the girl's body, he still wanted to see the girl.

Is she angry because I didn't go to see her this morning?
His mind was in a mess and he couldn't help but quicken his pace.

Then, he froze.

The sky was dark and rain was pouring down.

Passersby were in a hurry, and umbrellas were holding up umbrellas to block the anxious looks on their faces.

No one noticed that there was a girl sitting in the shadow on the stone pier at the subway entrance.

All that was left of the girl was her face hidden in the darkness.

When she saw him, her eyes curved into beautiful crescent shapes.

"Pap tap tap~"

He started running.

Although the girl was sitting inside the subway station with a roof, the open door let in strong winds and rain.

He saw that the girl's hair was covered with water droplets.

The girl tilted her face up, looking very comfortable as she enjoyed the rain beating on her.

He walked over slowly and moved the umbrella in his hand over to block the rather fierce rain.

The girl raised her head and looked at the umbrella diagonally in front of her, then turned her gaze and looked at the boy standing in front of her holding the umbrella handle.

"Lu Huan."

"Hu Yingying."

"Why don't you sit inside?"

"You'll get caught in the rain if you sit here."

He said somewhat accusingly, "Look, your hair is wet."

The girl tilted her head back and listened with her eyes downcast.

Hearing this, she looked at Lu Huan with a somewhat focused gaze, "Well, it's okay."

“I like the rain.”

"Very comfortable."

“But you’ll get sick.”

He was somewhat helpless, "It's not just a little rain."

"Such heavy rain."

It would hurt if rain like this hit your face, okay?
The girl smiled at the boy's words.

He suddenly discovered that, at some point, the outline of the girl's body had become vaguely apparent, rather than just a face as at the beginning.

"You weren't here this morning."

The girl's abrupt words made him a little flustered, "Well, I was late this morning, so I didn't take the subway, I took a taxi."

He lied subconsciously.

He didn't want the girl to know that he had chosen to stay away from her because of his fear of her.

Although he soon regretted it.

But the girl actually asked it directly? !

He seemed to hear the sound of flowers blooming in his ears.

Does this mean that the girl also cares about him?
He pursed his lips, trying hard not to let the corners of his mouth curl up.

"Oh."

The girl's nasal response was very cute.

He couldn't help but rub his ears.

The girl shouldn't have noticed that he was lying, right?

He tried hard to observe the changes in the girl's expression, but found nothing special.

He breathed a sigh of relief inwardly.

However, the girl's next words made him realize that he relaxed too early.

"You're afraid of me, aren't you?"

he:
The shops on the street outside the subway were flashing colorful lights, which dimly illuminated the subway entrance through the thick water vapor.

There was also light spreading at the end of the stairs.

The girl's face appeared and disappeared in the light and shadow.

It was still the same normal expression, the sweet smile he liked very much, but it also had a different flavor to it.

In this stormy day, one feels a little frightened for some reason.

"I-"

He wanted to say no, but when he looked at the girl's face, he found that he couldn't lie.
