Chapter 142
Lu Jinnian paused, seemingly in deep thought, then continued in a light tone, “Afterwards, because of an incident, I started liking rainy days . “
Just like that, Qiao Anhao’s heart skipped a beat . The reason he liked rainy days was the same as hers . . . But she started liking them because of someone while he started liking them because of an incident . . .
This was the first time after their marriage that she had spoken to Lu Jinnian so calmly . She started to get braver, asking out her suspicion, “What incident made you like rainy days?”
Lu Jinnian stared out at the pouring rain, his expression turning sorrowful . “That was the first time I got close to the most important person in my life . . . “
Lu Jinnian stopped, suddenly realizing what he was saying .
Qiao Anhao stood beside him, focusing all her attention on his words . But after waiting for a long time, he still remained silent, not finishing his sentence . She turned her head suspiciously, looking up at him .
Through the window, Lu Jinnian caught sight of Qiao Anhao’s expectant face as she stared at him .
The incident five years ago had taken away his right to have her . Even if he loved her, it had to be hidden deep in his heart, but just now, when he had wasn’t paying attention, he had almost exposed himself .
Lu Jinnian’s throat moved, his senses overtaking his emotions . Lightly, he said, “Forget it, it isn’t worth mentioning . “
“Oh,” Qiao Anhao replied softly, not saying anymore . She stared out at the pouring rain, her feelings dampening .
Lu Jinnian had said that he had met the most important person in his life on a rainy day, was it the girl that he liked?
So they both met the person they love the most on a rainy day, just that the person she loved the most was him and the person he loved the most was someone else . . .

Just moments ago she was cheered by their common interest, but now, she couldn’t help feeling sad and bitter .
Their conversation ended and the room fell into silence once more . They both stood in front of the window, gazing out at the rain, lost in their thoughts .
He was thinking about her .
She was thinking about him .
The rain in Beijing was often short-lived, coming suddenly and ending quickly . No more than half an hour later, the big storm had calmed to a small drizzle . In the end, the dark clouds faded and a faint ray of light could even be seen .
That was when Qiao Anhao came back to her senses, realizing that both of them had been standing in front of the window for such a long time .
She turned and saw that Lu Jinnian was still lost in his thoughts, staring out at the window . Remembering that she was called up by him, she asked, “Is there anything you need me for?”
