Shocking! The school heartthrob who was adopted by a wealthy family is actually a heiress!

Chapter 265 It smells so good

The raindrops grew denser, large raindrops pounding down, soaking into the skin and sending a cool sensation through it; the wind made the shadows sway wildly.

Qin Zhao's vision began to blur, a sense of panic washing over her, the urgency of the heavy rain, her heart pounding as if it would burst from her chest, yet she felt an unprecedented sense of freedom and joy.

Her back was soaked, but she didn't care at all.

Even after Shen Yanci put her in the passenger seat, her excited expression didn't fade.

The moment the car door closed, a torrential downpour began, pounding against the windshield with a loud crackling sound.

The space inside the car suddenly became small and private, with only the slightly rapid breathing of the two people.

They were both soaked, probably because they had just been running around in a panic and their heartbeats hadn't calmed down yet.

The excitement on her face hadn't faded yet, and her eyes were sparkling as she looked at him.

Shen Yanci casually brushed his wet hair aside, water droplets sliding down his chin. His lips relaxed naturally as he glanced at her sideways: "What are you laughing at?"

He teased, "So happy being carried by me?"

"Mmm." Qin Zhao leaned back in his chair. "It was so much fun getting soaked in the rain with you."

Outside the car, the rain was deafening, but inside, it was so quiet you could hear each other breathing.

Shen Yanci's hands on the steering wheel tightened slightly, and the veins on the back of his hands were faintly visible.

He raised an eyebrow: "Then get off the bus?"

"..."

"We're taking shelter from the rain," Qin Zhao corrected, turning her head to look at him. "It's so nice to take shelter from the rain with you."

Shen Yanci's lips curled up slightly, but he quickly suppressed it.

Qin Zhao rubbed his wet sleeve: "Are you happy?"

Shen Yanci looked straight ahead and said lazily, "I'm happy."

Qin Zhao blinked and heard him say in a low, magnetic voice, "Of course I'm happy that you've kept me out of the rain."

"..."

Qin Zhao glanced at him, then looked at himself.

She did seem to have kept the rain out; her coat was soaked.

Shen Yanci's hair and shoulders were slightly damp.

She pursed her lips, looked out the window, showing him only her profile and neck: "It's good that you didn't get wet."

Shen Yanci tapped his fingers lightly on the steering wheel twice, then grabbed a spare jacket from the car and tossed it to her: "Put this on."

Qin Zhao glanced at him.

Shen Yanci: "If you catch a cold, Lin Shi will nag you again, which is troublesome."

Qin Zhao hugged his coat and said, "Thank you."

Shen Yanci tossed her hair, splashing water droplets, and Qin Zhao chuckled.

He looked at her: "What are you laughing at?"

Qin Zhao watched him toss his head and lowered his eyelashes: "Your movement just now resembled that of a dog."

As if to increase credibility, she added, "Dogs shake their heads after falling into the water."

"..."

Shen Yanci stopped moving, slowly turned his head, and narrowed his dark eyes slightly: "Oh? So you're happy to like a dog?"

"..."

"I don't like dogs." Qin Zhao's eyes were clear and shallow as she looked out the window at the torrential rain. Her voice was soft. "I like you."

The wipers left regular arcs on the glass, leaving messy water streaks.

Shen Yanci's Adam's apple bobbed slightly before he finally spoke: "Qin Zhao, I don't fall for the 'slap and then treat' trick."

Qin Zhao pursed his lips: "I just wanted to chat with you."

She looked disappointed, as if she had been slandered and rejected.

Shen Yanci glanced at the clothes in her arms: "Why didn't you change your clothes?"

Qin Zhao held onto his clothes, still wearing his own wet coat.

She paused for two seconds, then placed her fingers on the zipper of her coat.

She slowly pulled it down a little.

Shen Yanci adjusted the navigation without any reaction: "Go home?"

Qin Zhao hummed in agreement.

She hesitated for a moment.

Shen Yanci: "Is it inconvenient for me to be here?"

He was referring to her changing clothes.

Qin Zhao looked at him and said, "I'm a little shy."

"..."

Shen Yanci: "Should I go down or close my eyes?"

It's raining so hard outside.

She said, "Close your eyes."

Shen Yanci turned his back to her and closed his eyes.

Qin Zhao looked at him for two seconds, then pulled down his zipper.

"Wait a moment."

Qin Zhao paused. He twitched his fingertips: "I'll open the glass, you go to the back and change it."

Shen Yanci: "I don't know if there are any cameras here."

Qin Zhao said "okay" and went to the back seat.

She took off her wet coat, revealing a white short-sleeved shirt underneath.

Without the cover of the loose coat, her delicate collarbones and curves, along with her subtly revealed waistline, were all exposed.

Qin Zhao changed into his coat and hid himself again.

She initially thought it would be more convenient to sit in the back seat, but after thinking about it, she moved back to the front passenger seat.

Her scent wafted over him, and Shen Yanci's eyelids twitched.

She glanced at Shen Yanci, whose eyes were still closed, and said, "I'm all better."

After two seconds, Shen Yanci opened his eyes and hummed in agreement.

He didn't even look at her, and started the car: "Going home?"

"Ah."

As the car drove along the road, Shen Yanci suddenly opened the window. Rain mixed with a bit of coolness was swept into the window by the wind.

Along with it came the sound of wind and rain.

He only lowered the window a little, so the raindrops didn't fall on Qin Zhao.

She glanced at him: "What are you doing?"

Shen Yanci's voice was a little hoarse: "Listen to the rain."

"..."

He raised the window.

The carriage suddenly became unusually quiet.

Qin Zhao looked at him: "Why aren't you saying anything?"

Shen Yanci: "Are you going to pursue me or am I going to pursue you?"

"..."

She was wearing his coat, the sleeves of which were way too long.

She pinched the extra sleeve: "Thank you for your coat."

"You're welcome," Shen Yanci said casually. "It's time to wash it. Return it to me when it's clean."

"..."

Qin Zhao twitched the corner of his mouth.

Shen Yanci glanced at her through the rearview mirror and a slight smile appeared on his lips.

The next second, she looked down and sniffed her coat.

"..."

Shen Yanci: "Does it taste good?"

Qin Zhao hummed in agreement.

She looked at him, her eyes clear and innocent, sparkling: "It smells so good."

"..."

Shen Yanci's eyelids drooped.

He gripped the steering wheel: "Is this how you chase people?"

"No, it smells good all the time." She looked at him. "Why does it smell so good?"

Shen Yanci's Adam's apple bobbed slightly: "How would I know? I didn't find it fragrant."

Qin Zhao thought for two seconds and said, "I know."

She said, "Because you are the one my heart desires (fragrance)."

"..."

Shen Yanci gripped the steering wheel, and after a while, a laugh suddenly escaped his throat, which he then quickly stopped.

His face remained completely expressionless as he glanced at her and asked, "Never managed to woo anyone, have you?"

"..."

Shen Yanci: "Who did you learn it from?"

Qin Zhao pursed his lips: "None of your business."

Shen Yanci scoffed lightly: "Fine."

Qin Zhao then remembered that she was still pursuing someone. She glanced at him and said, "I've never liked anyone else."

"It's normal to lack experience."

I've never liked anyone.

Shen Yanci's eyes were deep, and his throat suddenly felt a little itchy.

She asked, "So how do I pursue someone?"

Shen Yanci lifted his eyelids slightly: "Do I look very experienced?"

"..."

　On a whim today, I did a divination on Zhao Zhao and Princess Shen's apple-related relationship. Hmm, Princess Shen is indeed quite the repressed flirt.

　　I watched it for two hours, hahaha!
