Chapter 26 -26 Canât I Wear My Own Clothes?
Halfway there, Gong Yan received a call from home, saying that Madamâs rheumatism had flared up.
Rainy weather exacerbates rheumatism, causing pain that can keep one up all night.
After her husbandâs death, Madam Chen Sulan prayed in the temple almost daily as a form of solace, and as a result, her knees were worn out.
Lin Zhiyi raised her hand and pointed to the intersection ahead, âBig brother, drop me off there. I can take the subway back to school, but I need to borrow your jacket.â
âZhiyi...â Gong Yan felt somewhat apologetic.
âBig brother, Iâm in my twenties. Iâll be fine. Madam must be in pain right now, you should hurry back to be with her.â
âOkay.â
He stopped the car and tugged at the jacket she was wearing, reminding her to be careful.
Lin Zhiyi responded with a hum and got out of the car.
As she watched the car drive away, she took the subway back to school. The station was still some distance from the school, so she pressed forward, an umbrella against the wind and rain.
Before she reached the school gate, car headlights suddenly lit up ahead of her. She raised her hand to shield her eyes, thinking she had taken the wrong path.
Just as she moved to step aside, a blurry figure blocked her path.
Recognizing the familiar menâs shoes, Lin Zhiyi frowned and tried to walk past him, but someone grabbed her umbrella.
Æreewebηoveâ.com She tugged at it a couple of times and then a gust of wind blew her umbrella away.
âMy umbrella! What exactly are you trying to do?â
âOur conversation doesnât seem to be over yet.â
Gong Chenâs voice was deep, and even the raging storm couldnât suppress his intimidating presence.
Lin Zhiyi shivered involuntarily as the wind and rain pelted her exposed skin, causing goosebumps to form.
She couldnât help but tighten the menâs jacket around her.
Under the black umbrella, those dark eyes gained a hint of coldness. In the next second, Lin Zhiyiâs jacket was stripped off her.
Immediately, Gong Chen threw it away.
Lin Zhiyi was stunned, then glared at him, âUncle, have you lost your mind? Thatâs big brotherâs jacket!â
She tried to retrieve it, but Gong Chen grabbed her wrist and pulled her close.
âGet in the car.â
âLet go! I wonât go with you. Weâve already said everything that needed to be said during the family tribunal that day! I need to return to school.â
Lin Zhiyi ignored Gong Chenâs somber expression, broke free from his grip, and rushed into the storm.
As she ran to find Gong Yanâs jacket, she didnât know where it had been blown.
The rain soaked her body, her clothes clinging to her tightly enough to outline the edges and crevices of her undergarments.
Some passersby with umbrellas laughed and whistled at her.
Lin Zhiyi wrapped her arms around her shoulders and walked towards the school.
Suddenly, she was lifted off the ground and hoisted onto Gong Chenâs shoulder.
âLet go!â
âWeâre very close to your school. I canât guarantee your classmates wonât see you.â He held an umbrella in one hand and supported Lin Zhiyiâs body with the other, not even breathless.
âYou...â
Lin Zhiyi got into the car feeling utterly humiliated, then turned her head away from Gong Chen.
At that moment, a piece of clothing was thrown over her face.

Lin Zhiyi didnât move, clearly unwilling.
Gong Chenâs expression turned icy, âWhat? You can wear Gong Yanâs clothes, but you canât wear mine?â
Lin Zhiyi bit her lip and stiffened obstinately.
âIâll put it on for you,â Gong Chen lifted his hand.
Lin Zhiyi, startled, wrapped herself tightly in the jacket, immediately enveloped by Gong Chenâs presence.
She clenched her fists, trying to calm her thoughts.
She wasnât sure if it was her imagination, but she felt the left side of the jacket seemed a bit wet.
Could it be that she had gotten the jacket wet?
