Chapter 98: It’s Raining, I Came to Pick You Up

Translator: Henyee Translations  Editor: Henyee Translations

The day ended quickly. When Tang Li walked out of the laboratory, she saw Qi Yihan standing under the streetlamp.

At this moment, it was drizzling. He was holding a black umbrella and wearing a black suit. Even if he was alone, he stood straight like a tree, not slouching at all. He looked cold and his face gave people an impression that he didn’t care about anything in this world.

At that moment, he walked over with the umbrella. Tang Li noticed that the aura around him had changed. It was no longer as cold as before. There was even a hint of gentleness on his handsome face.

“Why are you here?” Tang Li was surprised to see him alone tonight, not accompanied by his three brothers.

“It’s raining. I came to pick you up.” Qi Yihan held the umbrella over her head.

Tang Li looked at the drizzle outside and could not help but smile.

She didn’t know why she felt a little happy for some reason,

At a rather slow pace, the two of them walked back to their villa while Tang Li was reporting to him the condition of the old man.

Butler Zhang saw the two of them from afar and could not help but feel touched.

Master and Madam looked so compatible.

When the two of them got closer, Butler Zhang told Tang Li, “Madam, Butler Yang said that Miss Zitong sent your things to your house this morning. He put them in your room.”

“Alright.” Tang Li nodded and went upstairs with Qi Yihan.

Upstairs, Qi Yihan was about to walk towards the study when Tang Li stopped him. “Yihan.”

Qi Yihan turned to look at her.

For some reason, Tang Li felt a little uncomfortable being stared at.

She pursed her lips and said, “Why don’t you… sleep in the bedroom?”

There was only a temporary bed in the study and it definitely wouldn’t feel good sleeping on it.

Qi Yihan looked at her calmly, but his eyes were unfathomable.

“I’ve been… kind of on fire lately. As long as you’re near me, I can’t control myself. If you can make sure not to come near me, then I’ll come.”

Tang Li was speechless.

She couldn’t make sure of that at all.

“Well then… you can stay in the study.”

Qi Yihan’s face tensed up and he said calmly, “Alright.”

With that, he walked towards the study.

Tang Li looked at his back and mumbled, “I’m kind of on fire too.”

In order not to cause a flame, it was indeed a wise choice to sleep in separate beds.

She was worried that he might regret it and say that it was her who deliberately seduced him.

What she didn’t know was that after Qi Yihan entered the study, the first thing he did was turn on his computer to look at a thread he had posted anonymously.

The title of the thread was: How do you make the person you like fall in love with you?

The thread was posted the day before yesterday.

There were already many replies below.

He had already read most of the replies and was now looking at the replies at the bottom.

One of them said, “If the woman you like is capable, maybe you leave her to take the lead.”

…

Tang Li returned to the bedroom and took out her phone to check the information sent by Doctor Xiang’s assistant.

At the same time, she replied to her cousin’s message, “Someone deliberately leaked the news. It’s been solved.”

Tang Li then started reading the information.

The next morning, as soon as Tang Li woke up, she received a call from her Second Aunt.

She was a little surprised. When she picked up the call, Second Aunt asked anxiously, “Li, is Zitong with you?”

Tang Li, “No, I’m in the hospital. She is not here.”

Then, she asked, “First Aunt, what happened?”

First Aunt told her, “Zitong hasn’t returned since she went out to send you something yesterday morning. I couldn’t get through to her on the phone either. The friends who called said that they haven’t seen her either. She has never spent the night outside without calling.”

The Tang family was strict with the girls’ upbringing and usually did not let them spend the night outside.

Tang Li asked, “Did you go look for her?”

“Your First Uncle and First Cousin went out to look for her early in the morning.” First Aunt suddenly said to her in a pleading tone, “Li, I feel quite uneasy. She didn’t come back last night and her phone was switched off, can she be in danger? Can you get Yihan to help look for her?”

It was obvious that First Aunt called Tang Li to ask Qi Yihan for help.

Tang Li answered. “Alright.” She didn’t plan to bother Qi Yihan and intended to look for Zitong herself.

After hanging up the phone, Tang Li walked to the balcony to check the weather.

It was gray and looked like it was going to rain again.

She calculated with her finger and thought about Tang Zitong’s Four Pillars of Destiny. She took out a piece of talisman from the bag and quickly drew a spell on it. Then, she folded the talisman into a paper crane and threw it out.

The paper crane seemed to have come alive and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

Just then, the sound of a door opening came from behind.

Tang Li turned around and saw Qi Yihan walking around the bedroom. Lately, he always took a shower downstairs and then came up to get changed into his pajamas without worrying about being seen by her.

“Wow, what a body. Why did I forget to touch it last time.” Tang Li couldn’t help but show approval.

At this moment, Qi Yihan spotted her and walked out wearing a shirt.

“What are you doing here?”

“Just now, my first aunt called and said that Second Cousin didn’t go back for the whole night. She couldn’t get through to her on the phone either. I drew a talisman to look for her.” Tang Li did not want to conceal anything from him anymore.

Qi Yihan walked up to her and asked, “When can you find her?”

“Probably after breakfast.”

After saying that, Tang Li sniffed and suddenly moved closer to him to smell him like a puppy.

Then, she asked curiously, “You smell good. Is it perfume?”

“No, I always drop some essential oil on them after they are washed. I think the smell today is particularly strong… Do you like it?”

“I like it. This fragrance is quite refreshing. Looks like the person who made the essential oil put in a lot of effort.”

“Yeah, the Qi family hired a professional essential oil expert. If you like it, I’ll get him to bring some of it to you.”

“Nope, that’s not necessary, I’ll just smell it from you.”

Seeing that Qi Yihan was silent, Tang Li thought she said something inappropriate and asked, “What’s wrong?”.

He suddenly raised his hand and tapped her lips. “Tang Li, are you that sweet to everyone?”

“Definitely not!”

Apparently, it wasn’t intended to be a question. After saying that, he withdrew his hand and turned to walk towards the bedroom.

Tang Li followed him, wanting to explain.

Qi Yihan spoke first. “I heard you want to take the exam for a doctor’s certificate.”

“Yes.” Tang Li suddenly remembered something and said, “Can I use your computer to print some information out later?”

“Sure.”

The two of them went to the study.

Looking at the files, Qi Yihan was a little surprised. “Do you have to remember that much?”

“No, it just so happens that Doctor Xiang and the others can help, so I figured I might get a few more certificates just in case of emergency.”

“A few more?”

“That’s right. I’ll take both traditional and western medicine exams. This way, if anyone questions me, I can just throw my certificate at their face.”

After saying that, she smiled at him. “The most important thing is that I can deal with those uncles. Who knows if they will probe into my background in the future.”

Qi Yihan didn’t expect her to think that way.. He lost in thought for a second before saying, “The doctor’s certificate I asked someone to make for you is not fake.”
