I run a hotel in Huangshan

Chapter 48 The savior descends from heaven
"Hahaha, our mom admitted it. I told you that she would like Qingyue sooner or later." Lu Siqing quickly replied to his brother.

He had a joyful look on his face and his body was jumping for joy, which attracted the sidelong glance of Han Qingyue.

Lu Siqing simply handed her the phone, and the text on the screen was clearly visible. Han Qingyue rolled her eyes at him and said nothing.

"Mr. Han, your future mother-in-law has fallen in love with you. Aren't you excited?" Lu Siqing was a little embarrassed.

"Future mother-in-law? Does she have other sons?" Han Qingyue asked calmly.

"Han Qingyue, you..." Lu Siqing was so angry that he couldn't speak.

A few days later, the promotional video for "Meet Huangshan" aired during prime time on television and major online platforms. Peng Ruilin was undoubtedly a popular young actor, and Han Qingyue's Weibo followers surged due to her collaboration with Peng Ruilin. Many fans lamented Han Qingyue's departure upon learning she was the general manager of the Qingxin Hotel, saying she would have been a huge star if she had pursued a career in the entertainment industry. Of course, some also fabricated rumors about her and Peng Ruilin, claiming she was his girlfriend outside the entertainment industry.

Han Qingyue just laughed off such comments. Making Qingxin bigger and stronger was what she wanted most. She had no interest in the entertainment industry, and didn't care about those insignificant rumors.

The promotional video was very effective, and the financial statements of Qingxin Hotel at the end of the month are the best proof of this.

That evening, the gray sky was covered in a thick, impenetrable veil. The rain had been falling all day, and even into the evening, it showed no sign of stopping, instead growing heavier. The dancing raindrops blended with the city lights, adding a touch of haziness.

As she walked out of the hotel, a cool breeze blew and Han Qingyue couldn't help shivering. She trotted to the car, quickly opened the door and got in.

Lu Siqing was on a business trip, and she was too lazy to call the hotel driver, so she drove home herself.

The car drove a distance and suddenly stopped. Han Qingyue was completely stunned. She turned the car key again and tried again several times, but the car still didn't move.

She forced herself to calm down, figuring the car had broken down. But was it really that unlucky? Rumors were flying around her and Peng Ruilin, and they were so active, yet the car hadn't moved.

There was no umbrella in the car, and looking at the rain outside the window, her idea of getting out of the car was instantly extinguished. But in such heavy rain, it was dangerous to park the car on the side of the road, even with the hazard lights on.

Han Qingyue was about to call Liu Bowen for help when there was a knock on her car window. She glanced sideways and saw a traffic policeman in a green raincoat standing next to her car, motioning for her to lower the window.

Han Qingyue rolled down the car window and heard the traffic policeman say, "Ma'am, why did you park your car here? It's raining so hard, visibility is poor, and accidents are very likely to happen, you know?"

Han Qingyue nodded hurriedly upon hearing this, and explained guiltily: "Comrade police officer, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to do that. My car seems to have broken down."

"Please show me your driver's license." The traffic police's tone was quite polite.

Rain water drifted into the car through the window, soaking Han Qingyue's sleeves. She was helpless and had to cooperate with the traffic police and handed him her driver's license.

After the traffic officer checked her driver's license, Han Qingyue got out of the car. The cold rain pierced through her thin shirt, chilling her to the bone. The traffic officer, realizing she didn't have an umbrella, offered to give her his raincoat, but Han Qingyue politely declined.

As the two were talking, a black Bentley stopped by the roadside, and a figure in a white shirt and black trousers came closer and closer through the layers of rain.

"Qingyue, it's really you!" Zhou Chenyu was about to go to Qingxin Hotel when he saw the back of a woman standing in the rain in the car. She looked very much like Han Qingyue, so he got out of the car and walked over.

"Brother Chenyu!" Han Qingyue never thought that the person coming was Zhou Chenyu.

Zhou Chenyu held up an umbrella and naturally shielded her from view. He said to the traffic police, "Comrade police officer, I'm her friend. I'm sorry to trouble you."

The traffic police nodded: "It's okay! It's raining heavily, so it's quite dangerous! I'll help you push the car to the side of the road, and then you can call for roadside assistance!" "Thank you so much, police officer!" Zhou Chenyu thanked him repeatedly.

He asked Han Qingyue to wait for him in the car. With the help of the traffic police, he pushed her car to the side of the road and called road rescue.

He finished all his work before returning to the car. Because the rain was so heavy, even with an umbrella, his shirt was almost soaked.

He had no time to care about himself, and took the suit jacket from the back seat to put on Han Qingyue. Han Qingyue was touched. Zhou Chenyu was like a savior sent from heaven. The umbrella, the jacket, the warm car compartment... all were given by him.

There was a traffic jam on a rainy day, and Zhou Chenyu drove for almost two hours before arriving at Han Qingyue's house.

It was dark and the lights were off in the house. Han Qingyue guessed that her cousin Qin Wendong had not returned yet.

He came to Huangshan for business these days and stayed at her house.

Seeing Zhou Chenyu's clothes were wet, Han Qingyue softened her heart and said, "Brother Chenyu, come in with me. I'll help you find some clothes to change into so you don't catch a cold."

Zhou Chenyu was flattered by Han Qingyue's proposal and readily agreed. The two of them walked into the room together, holding an umbrella.

Han Qingyue poured Zhou Chenyu a cup of hot water and went to the guest room to look for clothes. He estimated that Zhou Chenyu and Qin Wendong were of similar build, so he took a shirt.

When she came out of the guest room, she saw Zhou Chenyu looking intently at the photo of her and her parents.

Hearing Han Qingyue's footsteps, Zhou Chenyu shifted his gaze from the photo.

"Brother Chenyu, if you don't mind, just wear this. This is my brother's clothes." Han Qingyue said to Zhou Chenyu holding the shirt.

Zhou Chenyu paused for a moment and smiled, "Why would I mind your brother's clothes? I'm just afraid of getting them dirty."

"It's okay, don't think too much! Your health is important, take off your wet clothes quickly to avoid catching a cold! I'll wash them and give them to you another day." Han Qingyue handed over the clothes, and her guilt was slightly reduced.

Hearing her say this, Zhou Chenyu was somewhat moved and took the clothes with a smile.

After breaking up with Jiang Yunkai, Han Qingyue finally understood the truth: the past cannot be retrieved, and one should cherish the present and the person in front of him. Perhaps she could not accept Zhou Chenyu's feelings, but in her heart, he held a pivotal position. He was a shareholder and partner of Qingxin, but also a friend and a brother, and someone who gave everything for her without expecting anything in return.

Humans are not plants or trees, so who can be heartless? She may not be able to give love, but she is never stingy with the love between brothers and sisters and the friendship between friends.

Zhou Chenyu went to the guest room, took off his shirt, and put on the shirt Han Qingyue brought. It was a perfect fit, as if it was tailor-made.

He walked out of the guest room and asked with a smile, "How is it, Qingyue? Do you think it's suitable? It seems that your brother and I have similar body shapes."

Han Qingyue nodded. Whether it was an illusion or something else, she felt that he bore a striking resemblance to her father, Han Ruoyuan. His gaze on her was filled with affection. For a moment, she was lost in thought until the door opened and Qin Wendong entered, carrying several shopping bags.

Seeing her cousin's surprised expression, Han Qingyue hurried forward and Zhou Chenyu also turned around.
