469: Chapter 451 (Anti-theft chapter, the main text will be updated in one hour)Pitch-black clouds covered the evening sky like a curtain, as pattering raindrops continuously tapped against treetops, the ground, and umbrella rims.

Lu Xu held a blue umbrella, his other hand carrying a bag of newly purchased daily necessities.

It was a sudden downpour, and the pedestrians around him instantly became like ants on a hot pan, heads lowered as they scurried about looking for shelter.

Meanwhile, Lu Xu, walking unhurriedly with his umbrella, seemed like a person from another world amidst the crowd.

To Lu Xu, no unannounced downpour during the rainy season could make him panic. Due to his cautious and stubborn nature, he would bring that umbrella whenever he went out during the rainy season, even if the sky was clear when he left.

Watching the panicked crowd around him, Lu Xu slightly raised an eyebrow; to him, his current composure was the reward for being prepared.

”Classmate!”

Lu Xu continued walking, minding his own business.

”Classmate!”

This time Lu Xu stopped because someone poked his shoulder from behind.

Lu Xu turned around, and what met his eyes was a young girl half a head shorter than him, her head slightly lowered, her long black hair already soaked by the rain. Lu Xu’s gaze shifted down slightly; the white shirt, wet from the rain, not only clung to her body, tracing the girl’s curves, but also failed to completely hide the colors of the garments beneath. As if he had seen something forbidden, Lu Xu quickly looked up, his face flushing slightly.

”Is there something I can help you with?” Lu Xu looked toward the dark sky in the distance.

”Classmate, are you going back to the dormitory?” The girl looked up as if gathering her courage, her eyes staring straight at Lu Xu.

The girl’s eyes were watery, and the few raindrops hanging from her eyelashes added a touch of blurriness to them.

”Yes.”

”Can you take me back with you?” The girl stood on her tiptoes, her clear eyes filled with a sense of pleading.

”Please, I came to the gate to pick up the Malatang our dorm ordered. Malatang... it must be eaten while it’s hot to taste good!”

Hearing such an odd reason, even Lu Xu couldn’t help but have the corner of his mouth twitch slightly.

To him, this could be considered a smile.

”Okay,” Lu Xu agreed involuntarily.

”Great, thank you!” The girl proactively stepped under the umbrella. Her hand hesitated in the air a few times before she lightly grabbed Lu Xu’s sleeve.

Lu Xu glanced at the girl out of the corner of his eye. Long, straight black hair, a small, delicate nose, and her tall stature while walking gave off a very elegant vibe.

”Junior, what’s your name?”

”How did you know I’m a junior?”

”Because I saw you at the Freshman Orientation yesterday. You’re very tall and stand out.” The girl smiled at Lu Xu.

”Oh, I’m Lu Xu,” Lu Xu replied. Recalling yesterday’s orientation, Lu Xu had only thought about standing in a corner to finish the boring process as quickly as possible; he didn’t expect to be remembered by the senior.

”My name is Lin Muxia, a Sophomore. You can call me Senior Lin,” Lin Muxia said with a smile, looking up at Lu Xu’s smooth profile.

”Mhm,” Lu Xu replied casually, yet he felt as though Lin Muxia’s voice had a certain magic to it, making him want to hear more.

”Eh, why are you walking faster and faster?”

Lin Muxia took small, quick steps, watching as the sleeve she was holding was pulled further and further away.

”Because this umbrella could originally cover my entire body. Walking slower reduces the chance of my movements splashing water and dirtying my pants,” Lu Xu said seriously, looking at Lin Muxia. ”But now, the two of us can’t be perfectly covered. Walking faster means getting hit by less rain.”

Lin Muxia stared blankly at Lu Xu’s serious explanation and couldn’t help but purse her lips. Glancing at Lu Xu’s slightly wet left shoulder, she lowered her head in embarrassment. After thinking for a moment, the hand that had been pulling his sleeve suddenly linked around Lu Xu’s arm, and her soft body pressed against him.

”This way... Junior will get less wet,” Lin Muxia whispered with her head down. After confirming that raindrops were no longer falling on Lu Xu’s left shoulder, she smiled with satisfaction.

Just as Lu Xu was about to speak, a faint body fragrance wafted into his nostrils, and the soft, wondrous sensation from his right arm was an experience he had never had before.
