Chapter 1359: Chapter 1337: No, No, It Must Be a Coincidence!

In such heavy rain, is he stubbornly staying on the mountain, determined to get her bag today?

Chu Xinyue felt both amused and exasperated as she continued down the mountain.

Forget about him, he’s not foolish. When the rain gets heavier, he’ll definitely come down.

After walking for a few more minutes, the rain intensified, accompanied by wind that made it impossible to keep her eyes open.

Unable to help herself, she stopped again, looking up at the mountain once more. Finally, clenching her jaw, she ran back up to the summit!

The tourists hurriedly descending the mountain watched in surprise as the young woman desperately ran in the opposite direction, back up the mountain.

Chu Xinyue ran against the increasingly heavy rain and eventually returned to the top of the mountain.

The rain poured down, turning the world into a white blur!

Raindrops fell on her, making it difficult for her to open her eyes, yet she could vaguely see a figure in the pavilion—

As expected, he was still sitting there, unmoved as the rain hit his face, as if he were one with the mountains.

Ignoring everything else, she dashed into the pavilion, panting and frowning: "Are you crazy? You know your eyesight isn’t good, and you still came up the mountain?"

Ya Chen heard her voice, and though his facial muscles twitched, he wasn’t surprised. A determined smile appeared at the corner of his lips as he turned the Metal Cane in his hand: "If you can come, why can’t I?"

She felt sheepish, wondering if he was mocking her for secretly meeting a stranger from the internet. After a pause, she said, "It doesn’t matter why you came, let’s go back first."

He stayed seated, continuing to toy with the handle of the cane: "It’s not easy to come to Mount Jiuhua once; do you know how exhausted I was climbing? What’s the rush? No need to hurry back."

She grew anxious: "The doctor said your eye can’t get wet. What if the rain gets even heavier soon?"

Ya Chen’s smile deepened: "Are you worried about me?"

"I’m just afraid you’ll go completely blind, and I won’t be able to leave you for the rest of my life." She scoffed lightly.

He slowly stood up, following her voice, and before she could notice, he pulled her into his embrace tightly. She cried out in surprise, held so firmly that she couldn’t move.

Returning to the mountain to find him, soaked through, her clothes clung tightly to her skin, as if they were a second skin, pressing against his body closely. He could feel her curves and soft skin, and on the almost deserted mountain, the quiet atmosphere was almost suggestively intimate, sending an inexplicable heat through him, an inappropriate thought crossing his mind—no one would see even if he did something with her in these wild mountains.

Regarding matters between men and women, he was always very serious and proper; he never thought such an idea would occur to him—to have a romp in the wild.

She sensed his overwhelming impulse, held back her fierce heartbeat, trying to push him away: "If you won’t go down, I will! I won’t bother with you anymore..."

He finally let go of the improper thought, yet still held her, not letting go, his tone carrying a hint of coolness: "Eager for me to leave the mountain, afraid I’ll run into someone?"

She was stunned, figuring since he came to the mountain searching for her, he must already know about her meeting with MR.N, so she didn’t bother to hide it, pushing him away and stepping back two steps: "That’s right, I came to Mount Jiuhua today to meet a friend I met online. I know you came today for this too, right? You’ve known for a while, haven’t you? I don’t think I’ve done anything wrong! Don’t accuse me in that tone."

"Not wrong?" He arched a lip, "A married woman, coming to such a remote place to meet a stranger from the internet, that’s called having an affair. Picking such a quiet, deserted spot, what are you planning? Even saving on the hotel fee? Isn’t that too frugal?"

Chu Xinyue’s face flushed crimson, unable to hold back her emotions:

"We aren’t strangers; we’ve known each other for almost a year. He’s my number one fan, always speaking up for me online. When others made things difficult for me online, where were you? It was him who helped me fight back one comment at a time! Later, when I lost the child and was having a hard time recovering in China, where were you? It was still him, chatting with me, helping me through the hardest days! Compared to you, my husband, he cares more about me! Who are you to speak like that about him?"

He silently listened to her accusations without saying a word.

After letting it all out, she realized she might have gone too far.

After all, praising another man, even one met online, in front of him would likely anger any husband.

Moreover, she had never spoken such heartfelt words to him before, which made it a bit awkward.

Still, it was strange that he didn’t react much this time, only saying softly: "Done venting?"

Chu Xinyue’s face heated up: "...Yeah."

"The rain seems to have let up; shall we go after you’re done?" He stood up, reaching behind the pavilion’s round table to get an umbrella leaning against it.

She paused; so he had brought an umbrella, making her worry for nothing.

He came prepared, yet she was worried he would get wet; it was indeed like wanting something more than the emperor himself. 𝕗𝚛𝚎𝚎𝐰𝗲𝗯𝗻𝚘𝚟𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝕞

Then another realization struck her, freezing her in place!

Something seemed off!

Hold up—

The umbrella was black—

Wasn’t a black umbrella the sign MR.N had given to meet her today?

No no, it must be a coincidence!

But—how could that be!

The rain had come so suddenly, without any prior warning; how could Ya Chen just so happen to have brought an umbrella, and a black one at that?!

She stood before him, disoriented in the wind, unable to believe her own speculation.

Ya Chen, MR.N...

MR.N, Ya Chen...

"Weren’t you in a hurry to leave?" He raised the black umbrella, waved it in front of her face, and then leaned in to whisper teasingly in her ear: "Now that we’ve met, it’s about time to go."

She finally understood, Ya Chen was MR.N.

A complex mix of emotions surged within her, rendering her speechless for a long time.

In the past year, the MR.N she’d shared her heart with online was, in reality, the person closest to her all along.

All the countless imagined versions of MR.N’s identity couldn’t hold a candle to the truth: it was her own husband.

Indeed, she felt utterly foolish!

Who else could wield such authority online to mute, block, or deal with trolls?

And who else could instantly know and come online to comfort her during her dark times?

It made sense why he never wanted to meet before!

Just moments ago, she had extolled MR.N to him as if he were an angel, and the thought made her face burn like a furnace!

He must be feeling very smug!

But...

Could that gentle, thoughtful MR.N, who stayed up talking with her through the night, really be him?

She still couldn’t fully believe it.
