"Don't go!"
Tang Yuxiu shouted angrily, and Gu Yan paused her steps.
Tang Yuxiu thought there was hope; he didn't want to miss even the slightest opportunity.
He stepped forward to bring Gu Yan back.
Yan Shuo glanced, his gaze sharp, and he directly pulled Gu Yan to the steward's side, saying, "Take good care of her."
The steward nodded at Yan Shuo and held Gu Yan's arm. The umbrella firmly shielded her from the heavy rain, though the water splashing on the ground still soaked her shoes and pants.
Gu Yan lowered her head and looked at this scene, suddenly recalling her second meeting with Tang Yuxiu.
Back then, she was just a housemaid, helping him clean the house.
That day, she didn't react in time and thought he had trespassed into the house. In her agitation, she knocked over a bucket, and water spilled all over the floor, soaking his shoes, too.
Later, he went back to his room to change clothes and told her to throw away the shoes, socks, and pants.
