The road outside the alley was wide enough for two people to walk side by side, but now, under an umbrella, they could only walk one behind the other. Pei Muchan suddenly turned her head to look at him, and half of her face peeked out from under the umbrella.

"Where is it in front? I don't know the way, so why don't you lead?"

Xu Qingyan hesitated for a moment and shook his head, "It's just ahead. There are a few forks in the road, and I'm not comfortable with you following behind. We'll have to walk like this; otherwise, we won't fit under the umbrella side by side."

Pei Muchan blinked, seemingly wanting to say something.

"What's wrong?" he asked, puzzled.

"Nothing... nothing." She actually wanted to ask if they should share an umbrella, but she felt that would be too intrusive on personal boundaries, and besides, he hadn't mentioned it.
