The Destiny 2: Extraordinary Love

Under the Same Black Umbrella

Ray smiled back. But, not long after, Ray's smile suddenly faded from his face. The smile disappeared and was replaced by the look of his sad face.

"What's up, brother?" Alex asked who could clearly see the change in her brother's expression.

"Alex, don't you intend to get married?" Ask Ray.

When he first heard the question, Alex looked surprised. But, it only lasted for a few seconds. Because, in the next second. The man then showed a smiling face. It's just, not a happy smile. But, a smile that covered the sadness in his heart.

"I don't think that's important to talk about." Said Alex.

Ray breathed his breath. The middle-aged man guessed it, knowing that Alex would avoid such a discussion. But the thing is, it's for Alex's future. At the age of entering middle age, the man was not married. If he gets married, he will only get a widow. Because, there's no way a girl would want to marry an old man like Alex. Even though his face is still charming.

"Alexes. After all, having a life partner who will accompany your old days is better than not. I know, you have your own reasons for this. But, let's think about your next day. Are you forever going to be single like this?"

Alex was silent, the man seemed to be thinking of something. He wants to answer his brother's words. However, there was no word he could say.

Seeing his mother's other sister was just quiet. Ray took his breath back. Discussing this kind of thing with Alex has always never found a way out. His sister will always be silent, whether intentionally or not, but Alex will be silent.

"Hah— I have to go now." Said Ray while looking at a watch attached to his hand.

Alex responded. The man stood up when he saw Ray standing up from his seat.

"I hope next time we can talk about this again. And you— I hope, you can be more open to your heart. All right, looks like— I talked a lot today. I'll go first, see you." Ray said before finally getting out of the room.

Alex stood staring at his brother's departure. The door of the room that had been closed again became the fulcrum of Alex's view at this time. The man looked dreamy, staring blankly ahead.

The car that Yuan was driving had arrived at the campus parking lot.

Heavy rain still flushed the area, making the atmosphere of the parking lot that is usually crowded with girls, now looks lonely.

"Shut up here and wait a minute." Yuan said before getting out of the car with the umbrella open.

Yuan walked under an umbrella that protected himself from the rain. The man stepped his foot towards the car door on the left side.

Rose from inside the car could only shut up and notice a man walking under the black umbrella.

It took a few seconds, before Yuan finally reached the left side of the car door. After that, Yuan seemed to move his hand and open the door of the car.

"Get out." Yuan said as he leaned his umbrella towards the car door.

Rose was silent, she still felt confused by Yuan's attitude this morning. All of this Yuan's treatment actually made him fail to stop putting his heart on the man.

Rose wanted to give her vexation to Yuan. But, her happy feeling like this beautiful dream had defeated all her sense of regret.

"Why shut up? You want to keep me waiting? Get out, otherwise I'll leave you here without an umbrella." Yuan.

"Yes, sorry." Said Rose who could only get those two words out of her mouth.

Then, Rose got out of the car. The black umbrella instantly protected her from the rain as her feet began to climb onto the parking area.

Yuan swiftly grabbed the girl's body like before. His actions again surprised Rose, although this was not the first.

After closing the car door, it came back. Yuan walked along with Rose who was in his arms.

From behind the windows of the university's high-rise buildings. There were many students and students standing there. They seemed to be scrambling for a place to be able to see the great furore that was happening right now.

Within seconds, the university platform became crowded with the topic of 'who is the girl behind the black umbrella with Yuan?'

Many comments have been found in the post, their photos have also been spread and shared to various online media.

Not a few people praised their romance. But, many also hated her, especially the hatred for the girl.

Somehow the cold and piercing this— feels very different, not like before. I feel— like many pairs of eyes are looking at me with full self-reliance. — Inner Rose.

"What's wrong?" Ask Yuan.

"Eh? What's?"

"Your face looks like you're thinking something." Yuan.

"Is that so? But, that's not important. You don't have to worry." Rose Say.

"Ck, you actually have a high sense of confidence huh. Who's worried about you. I'm just asking."

"Sorry."

Yuan was embarrassed to hear the words sorry coming out of the girl's mouth again.

"Rose, I'm telling you yes. Don't say sorry too easily."

"Why?"

Yuan stopped his steps when he saw a building with the writing of the law faculty was in front of his eyes.

For a moment, the young man silently watched Rose. Look into the eyes of the girl next to him.

"Rose." Call someone who just came out from inside the law school building, it was Feng.

Rose looked up when she heard her name being called. But then, his head turned back to look at Yuan again as the man beside him held his head back to not take his eyes off the man.

"When I'm next to you, never look at anyone, let alone a man. Now go inside your faculty building and ignore the man." Yuan.

"Why did you— "

"Ssttt— is another one you should remember. Don't ever ask me 'why. Since I don't need a reason to do whatever I want to you, as long as it's good for you, you're quiet enough to just obey." Said Yuan who deliberately interrupted Rose's question.

"Now, comein. I can't keep standing here with you. I also have a course I have to attend this morning." Yuan said, again.

Rose nodded, then after that she immediately ran small towards her faculty building. There he paused for a moment, then turned around and looked towards Yuan.

"Thank you." Rose said as she threw her genuine smile.

Yuan looked to nod. The man then passed by and went towards his own faculty.
