The two of them sat quietly by the lake and chatted for a while, while sparse raindrops slowly fell from the sky.
As soon as Gu Nan felt the raindrops hitting his body, he raised his head and looked to the west. Under the night, a flash of lightning flickered on and off, making it look like a rain was about to come.
"It is going to rain."
"Well, let's go back." Fu Yunchen stood up and reached out to pull Gu Nan up from the chair.
As the two people walked back along the original path, there was a loud "bang" in the sky, a strong wind suddenly hit, and huge raindrops came accompanied by lightning and thunder.
Gu Nan's eyes darkened slightly, and the foreseeable scene he saw when he met Master Qin yesterday flashed through his mind.
Fu Yunchen took off his coat and placed it on her head.
"It's going to rain heavily, so be careful of the water under your feet."
Gu Nan looked at the man next to her. His arms held up the clothes and placed them all over her head. However, he was completely surrounded by the heavy rain.
Seeing this, Gu Nan immediately raised his hands to help him hold up the coat and pulled him towards her.
"Together we will."
Fu Yunchen lowered his eyes slightly and looked at her.
Raindrops slowly dripped along his razor-sharp handsome face, with drops of water hanging on his thick long eyelashes. A few strands of broken hair fell in front of his eyebrows. The raindrops slid down his slender neck and into his shirt.
His clothes were soaked, revealing his strong muscle lines.
Gu Nan sighed inwardly. Even if a handsome man is caught in the rain, he still looks good.
After a pause for a few seconds, Fu Yunchen patted himself on the shoulder.
"Come up, I'll carry you."
Gu Nan immediately shook his head and refused: "I'm not a child, I can leave by myself."
Fu Yunchen didn't say much, squatted down and said: "Come up."
Seeing that his whole body was soaked in the heavy rain, Gu Nan knew that now was not the time to argue, so she put Fu Yunchen's large coat on top of his head and lay obediently on his back.
A chill hit her when she first lay on his back, but soon, his body temperature spread to her body through the wet and cold material of her shirt, and a warm current enveloped her continuously.
Fu Yunchen's pace was neither fast nor slow. Since this is the old city, the water on the road is quite serious. The more you walk towards the direction of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, the more serious the water is on the road. In addition, the rain is too heavy, and it is only ten minutes away.
The water on the ground has reached up to my calves.
Gu Nan finally understood why Fu Yunchen was carrying her.
Fu Yunchen walked all the way to the gate of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, dripping with rain.
The sentry on duty stood in the guard box, and through the washed glass window he could vaguely see a figure approaching not far away.
He immediately picked up an umbrella, pushed open the door of the guard box and walked out.
When the black shadow approached, the sentry finally saw who it was, and his little eyes widened in surprise.
"Fu...Academician Fu?"
The sentry immediately ran up and kindly put an umbrella on Fu Yunchen's body. Only then did he realize that there was another person lying behind Fu Yunchen.
Gu Nan looked towards the sentry, and it was the sentry brother who stopped her yesterday.
The sentry brother was very discerning and immediately handed the umbrella to Gu Nanyi.
"Miss Gu, Academician Fu's research institute is still inside. The terrain here at the Chinese Academy of Sciences is low-lying. As long as it rains heavily, there will be serious water accumulation here. The road is not easy to walk, but don't catch a cold. Hold this umbrella.
.”
Gu Nan reached out to take the umbrella and said thanks: "Thank you, I will return it to you tomorrow."
The sentry brother laughed naively: "Don't worry, you can return it to me anytime. Well, it doesn't matter if you don't."
As long as Academician Fu can forgive him for his rashness yesterday, what does an umbrella mean?
Fu Yunchen glanced at the sentry, said nothing, and walked straight towards the Chinese Academy of Sciences with Gu Nan on his back.
"Let me down." She was really embarrassed to be carried all the way by Fu Yunchen.
"It's just a few steps away."
"But you've been carrying me for so long, and I'm worried that you'll get tired."
The man chuckled and looked sideways at the girl lying on his shoulder.
"You don't believe in your boyfriend's physical strength that much?"
Gu Nanyi:......
Um, why do you think his words are not serious?

suburbs
Two black cars were parked beside the road halfway up the mountain.
About one kilometer further ahead is the holiday villa area invested and built by the municipal government. Because of the beautiful environment and beautiful mountains and clear waters, many citizens of the imperial capital come here for vacation on weekends.
Today is not the weekend, the entire mountain is pitch black, and the surrounding dense forest is like a large black net, surrounding the entire mountain.
The wiper in front of the car window washed away the rainwater on the glass, making a squeaking sound.
There were two people sitting in the car.
"What do you want to say when you ask me to meet here tonight?"
There was a thin figure sitting in the passenger seat. He was wearing a black cloak and a wide hat covering his entire head.
"This is given to you by the master." He stretched out his slender white hand, with half a black pill in his hand.
After the man in the driver's seat saw the pills, his deep eyes suddenly lit up.
"Is this the Spirit Tempering Pill?"
"Yes, the master said that after taking half of the Spirit Tempering Pill, you will be able to successfully break through the bottleneck period you are currently experiencing."
The man excitedly reached out to get it, but the man in black held the hand when the man stretched out his hand.
"What's the meaning?"
The man in black snorted softly: "How is the investigation of the matter that the master told you going?"
Mentioning this matter, the man looked slightly gloomy.
"I tested Mr. Fu, but he doesn't seem to know the existence of that bead."
"The ancestors of the Fu family and the Ye family are the only ones who know the whereabouts of the Chaos Bead. Their ancestors must have left clues about the Chaos Bead. Maybe he deliberately showed ignorance to deceive you. Like Mr. Fu,
Such a cunning person, you'd better not take his words lightly."
"Well, I will continue to investigate in the Fu family."
"Hurry, another force has come to the earth now, and they are also trying to find the whereabouts of the Chaos Bead. This bead is very important to the owner and must not fall into the hands of others."
After finishing speaking, the man in black glanced sideways at the man beside him.
He slowly opened his palm and handed over the half pill.
"As long as you are loyal to the master, the Spirit Tempering Pill will not kill you."
Worried that the man in black would regret it, the man eagerly reached out his hand and took away the half pill, raised his head and swallowed it directly.
"There is one more thing you need to solve." The man in black took out a document and handed it to the man.
The man reached out to take the document and glanced down. There was a photo of a young girl's ID attached to the document.
"is her?"
"Oh? Do you know her?"
"Her name is Gu Nanyi, she is Ye Jingyang's granddaughter. I met her yesterday at Fu's house."
"Since you know her, I don't need to introduce her. The master wanted to find a way to deal with her."
The man asked curiously: "Why did the master want to kill her?"
"This is not your place to ask. You just need to follow the master's instructions."
Seeing that he couldn't find any important clues, the man had no choice but to give up.
"Actually, we don't need to do anything to deal with her."
The man in black looked at the man with interest.
"How to say?"
"I observed this girl's face. She has a short-lived appearance, and this year should be her death date."
The man in black's eyes narrowed dangerously, and he felt secretly happy.
"Haha, you are the number one physiognomist in China. Since you said so, it seems that the girl is really in trouble. I will tell the master the good news."
After a conversation, the man in black opened the door and got out of the car, and his figure quickly disappeared into the night.
The man in the driver's seat sat quietly for a while, his eyes fell on the girl's ID photo, and he glanced at the corner of his mouth, with mockery in his eyes.
Damn girl, you dare to curse me to be struck by lightning. I want to see whether you die first or I am struck to death by lightning first.
The man started the car and prepared to leave, but the car stalled for no apparent reason.
He tried several times in succession, but still couldn't start the fire.
The man looked puzzled, why couldn't the car start in good condition?
He saw that the rain outside had lightened up a lot, so he opened the door and got out of the car.
Go around to the front of the car, open the hood and check the cause of the stall.
Just as he was holding up a flashlight to check the situation inside the car, there was a loud "bang" and a bolt of thunder passed through the air and struck him directly.

Gu Nanyi and Fu Yunchen returned to the dormitory of the Chinese Academy of Sciences.
After entering the door, Fu Yunchen reached out and unbuttoned his shirt. After opening the buttons one by one, the man's strong chest was exposed.
Gu Nanyi quickly looked away, pretending to be calm and looking elsewhere.
The one-bedroom and one-living house seemed extremely crowded at this time, and the atmosphere in the living room became a bit ambiguous.
Fu Yunchen took off his soaked shirt and found that Gu Nanyi's back was facing him.
He walked directly behind her, put an arm on her shoulder, and gently hooked her. Before Gu Nan could recover, she was pulled into the man's arms.
The man's cool thin lips kissed her forehead, his eyes were deep and dark, and there was a faint flash of fire in his eyes.
"My clothes are soaked, go take a shower quickly."
He stretched out his hand to tuck the dripping hair from her forehead behind her ears, and looked at her tenderly.
Gu Nan's heart was beating wildly at this moment. She suppressed the tension in her heart and pretended to be calm on her face.
"I'm okay. You were in the rain quite badly just now, so you'd better wash up first."
Fu Yunchen took her hand and said with a smile, "I don't mind washing it together."
Gu Nan's cheeks immediately turned red and he withdrew his hand.
"I'm going to take a shower."
After saying this, she turned around and hurried to the bathroom.
Fu Yunchen looked at her back with a slight smile on his lips.
As soon as Gu Nan entered the bathroom, she locked the bathroom door.
Although I had lived with Fu Yunchen under the same roof before, the feeling was completely different.
When I was in Yuyuan, my uncle and Ye Fan were still at home.
As for the flat-floor apartment in Lan Jingjiang, it was very large and had many rooms, so when they occasionally lived there, they would sleep in their own rooms so as not to disturb each other.
But now, they are staying together in a 60-square-meter room. Apart from the living room, there is only one bedroom...
Because he was worried that Fu Yunchen would get sick after being exposed to too much rain just now, Gu Nan took a hot bath as quickly as possible, and he was fine in about ten minutes.
She looked towards the place where her clothes were put, and her expression suddenly became startled.
It's bad, she didn't bring a change of clothes when she came in.
You can't go out wearing wet clothes now, right?
Gu Nan stood there and thought for a few seconds, and finally found out helplessly that she could only ask for help from the man outside the door.
Taking a deep breath, she walked to the bathroom door and knocked.
There was a sound of footsteps in the living room.
A tall figure appeared on the glass door frame.
"What?" Fu Yunchen asked standing outside the bathroom.
"I didn't bring a change of clothes, please help me get them."
Fu Yunchen asked: "Where do you put your clothes?"
"Bedroom, in my suitcase."
"good."
The sound of footsteps gradually faded away.
After a while, Fu Yunchen came over again.
"I brought the clothes over, how can I give them to you?"
Gu Nan pondered for a few seconds, then stretched out his hand to press the door handle, opened a gap, and stretched out a white arm.
Fu Yunchen glanced at Gu Nan's outstretched arm, blinked slightly, and then handed the pajamas he brought to her hand.
As soon as Gu Nan got the pajamas, she immediately retracted her arm: "Thank you."
After thanking her, she closed the bathroom door again and raised her hand to knock on her forehead.
It's really embarrassing. Fu Yunchen doesn't think she did it on purpose, does he?
Outside the door, Fu Yunchen stood there without leaving, seeming to be contemplating something.
When Gu Nan came out in her pajamas, he slowly raised his eyes and looked at her.
The girl was wearing a large black T-shirt. The length of the T-shirt just covered her thighs, revealing a section of her straight, white legs.
Her long hair was wetly coiled on the top of her head, and one hand was firmly pressing on it. Because of the movement of her arm, the whole dress was lifted up a few inches, and her white and straight thighs were looming, attracting people.
daydream.
Fu Yunchen suddenly felt that his throat was dry, his Adam's apple moved up and down twice, and his deep eyes slowly moved up from the legs, and finally fell on the girl's face.
Gu Nan felt uncomfortable when he saw him and felt inexplicably nervous.
At this time, Fu Yunchen had changed into home clothes, and his hair had not yet been dried. His short hair hung unruly in front of his forehead, adding a bit of casualness to his overall temperament.
"I'm ready, go and wash up quickly." Gu Nan took the initiative to speak.
Fu Yunchen nodded.
"The hair dryer is on the bedside table."
"Okay." She nodded and walked straight to the bedroom.
Fu Yunchen strode into the bathroom with open legs. The moment he closed the door, he let out a long breath.
His whole body felt as if it was on fire. He walked to the washbasin irritably, turned on the cold water and washed his face. He put his hands on both sides of the washstand and raised his head to look at himself in the mirror.
There was a strange fire in those deep eyes.
When he saw Nan Yi coming out, he had an impulse and wanted to rub her into his arms and kiss her hard. This feeling of being unable to control himself made the self-control he was so proud of seem so unbearable.
hit.
As soon as Gu Nan returned to the bathroom, she walked to the bed and picked up the hair dryer. She took down her long wet hair and turned on the hair dryer. The warm wind blew in her hair, making her whole head feel warm.
The way Fu Yunchen had just looked at her could not help but appear in her mind, and a warm current instantly spread throughout her body. Although she had no experience in matters between men and women, she could guess what was revealed in Fu Yunchen's eyes just staring at her.
