Kuai Chuan: The cold Lord God always acts like a spoiled brat to me

Chapter 1124 Firefighter vs. Cartoonist 67
Gu Qingqing moved her lips, but seeing Wei Chengze's appearance, the words "Wei Chengze is here, soaked to the bone..." were swallowed back. She only said dryly, "As long as you get home..."

There was a moment or two of silence on the other end of the phone before Lin Zhian asked, "...What's wrong, Qingqing?"

"No...it's nothing," Gu Qingqing quickly said, but her heart was clenching even tighter.

"How are you doing over there?" Lin Zhian paused for a moment, her voice heavy with weariness. "I'm feeling a bit unwell tonight. Can we talk about it tomorrow?"

The word "uncomfortable" seemed light and airy, yet it pierced Wei Chengze's heart like a needle.

"Okay." Gu Qingqing hung up the phone, her heart heavy.

Almost the instant the call ended, Wei Chengze sprang up from the steps!
The sudden movement startled Gu Qingqing, who instinctively took two steps back, thinking he was about to lash out.

However, Wei Chengze didn't even glance at them. Like a young leopard that had been thoroughly enraged and then completely defeated, he resolutely and without any hesitation plunged into the overwhelming rain!
His silhouette, cut off by the stark white streetlights and the inky rain, was reduced to a blurry outline, a desperate, reckless one. Each step he took in the puddles splashed up icy water, revealing a "better to die than be a broken jade" spirit, before quickly disappearing into the darkness and the end of the rain.

"Wei Chengze!!" Gu Qingqing stomped her foot angrily, staring in the direction he had disappeared, and shouted through the rain.

"You're good at getting angry with yourself, but you're never good at admitting what really happened! If you keep doing this, you'll regret it!"

Lu Bingchen was taken aback, never expecting Gu Qingqing to have such a powerful and resounding presence.

Once Gu Qingqing's anger subsided, the rain soaked her hair, and she looked at Lu Bingchen with some helplessness: "He... do you want to go look for him?"

Lu Bingchen suddenly found this girl quite interesting. He frowned, looking into the depths of the rain, pondering for a long time before speaking with a hint of understanding. "Find him? Where are we going to look? Once his stubbornness takes hold, not even ten oxen could pull him back. Let him calm down on his own." He opened the car door, his tone carrying the helplessness of someone who's been through it all. "Get in. Young people always have to hit a wall before they know the pain and learn to turn back."

Gu Zihang muttered to himself, "Is it really necessary to make such a fuss over a breakup... Sister Lin seems like such a nice person..."

"What do kids know about feelings? Don't talk nonsense." Gu Qingqing was annoyed and gently patted her younger brother's head.

"Tch," Gu Zihang scoffed, rubbing his head, "It's like you guys weren't my age before!"

Gu Qingqing had already turned around and walked to Lu Bingchen's side. She gently patted his arm and said, "You take Zihang back first. I'm going to Zhian's place."

"Are you alone?" Lu Bingchen frowned.

"Don't worry." Gu Qingqing opened the car door and helped Gu Zihang inside, but she didn't get in herself. Instead, she took out another folding umbrella from her bag. "I'll go check if she's really alright, and while I'm at it... bring her some of her favorite strawberry cake. I just saw a dessert shop."

Lu Bingchen watched her walk towards the street corner with her umbrella, her figure standing out clearly in the rain. Gu Zihang leaned out from the back seat: "Is Sis going to be a peacemaker?"

Lu Bingchen started the car, looked at the figure, and sighed, "Your sister always thinks she can handle everything herself."

The car started, the engine sound blending into the rain. It drove away from the hospital, through the wet streets, and stopped beside Gu Qingqing.

Lu Bingchen said, "Get in the car, don't dawdle. I'll take you to your home in Linzhi first, and then I'll take your brother back."
