Chapter 974

Angela was rather annoyed. Is this guy doubtful of my driving skills?

Richard got into the driver‘s seat from the back seat. Looking wild and attractive in a black trench coat, he oozed

masculine charm in every move.

After darting a second look at him, Angela turned to look out the window. She dared not take another look at him,

as though she feared she would fall for him if she did

So.

Richard handsomely turned the steering wheel with deft hands. Subsequently, the large SUV charged out of the

curtain of rain and moved along the road toward the mountains.

It was raining heavily outside the car. As big raindrops pattered heavily against the car window, Angela couldn‘t

help feeling somewhat restless. It was as if even her breath were full of the man‘s smell as she stayed with him in

such a cramped space.

There was a brief silence as neither of them spoke.

“Is there any music to listen to?” she asked him.

“No,” he answered her.

Angela was speechless for a moment. Doesn‘t this guy have any other hobbies?

Richard drove steadily and not too fast. Having nothing else to do, Angela had no choice but to look at the rain

outside the car window to kill time.

Suddenly, Richard slammed on the brakes.

Startled, Angela looked up ahead and was immediately stupefied for a few seconds. Before they knew it, there was

a mudslide ahead that blocked their way back to the base. “No way!” Speechless, she looked at the mudslide. It

wasn‘t severe, but the mudslide happened to block the entire road. Some debris even flowed down the

road, making it impossible to open up the road to traffic tonight.

“What should we do now?” Angela turned to look at the man.

“We have no choice but to stay the night in town,” Richard replied before looking left and right for a place to make

a U–turn back into town.

Angela let out a sigh. I guess we can only blame our bad luck for this. I hope there‘s a hotel in town, she thought to

herself as she watched the man turn back to town.

There was another silence on their way back. Just then, it occurred to Angela that

there was only a street in the center area of the town. Could there be a hotel? Don‘t tell me there isn‘t even a

hotel!

Indeed, there wasn‘t any hotel here. There was only a small three–story inn, which was the only lodging in town.

After parking the car outside the inn, Richard was the first to step out, whereas Angela stayed in the car, waiting.

Staring at the heavy downpour outside the car, she found herself caught in an awkward situation for a moment.

There isn‘t an umbrella. How am I supposed to get out of the car? I‘ll get drenched to the skin in a few minutes

after doing that.

Just when she was hesitating, she saw Richard taking an umbrella from the back seat before opening it and walking

toward her. When the car door opened, she looked at the man holding the umbrella. Standing in a charmingly erect

posture, he stretched out his hand toward her.

Angela didn‘t ask him to help her out of the car, but the SUV was too high above the ground. When she stepped out

of the car, the man naturally grabbed her arm to support her. Flustered, she hastily stepped back. Just when she

was about to step out into the rain, he yanked her into his arms with great strength. As a result, her body was

pressed directly against his. Outside the umbrella was a raining world, whereas under the umbrella was a small

world that only belonged to them.

Exasperated, Angela looked up, saying, “What are you–”

The next second, however, the man put his arm affectionately around her shoulders and took her into the inn.

Before Angela came to her senses, Richard closed the umbrella and walked toward the counter. He said to the

landlady, “Get us a room, please.”

The instant Angela heard this, she quickly dashed over. “Two–we‘d like to have two rooms. Thank you.”

“Sorry, miss, but there‘s not a room available, let alone two,” replied the landlady. She explained with a sigh, “Many

who collect herbs in the mountains are staying here because of the downpour, so all our rooms are occupied

today.”

Angela‘s mind went blank for a few seconds. There‘s no available room anymore? What should we do then?

Suddenly, the landlady looked at Richard with a smile. “Hey, dude, aren‘t you staying in one of our rooms?”

“Mm–hm.” Richard nodded.

Dumbfounded, Angela instantly turned to look at him. “You have a room here?”

“Why would you ask for two rooms, then? You two can stay together in his room,” the landlady suggested candidly.
