Chapter 430: The house leak happened to rain overnight
The sound of the door closing and the thunder sounded at the same time, which shook people's ears and suddenly woke Qiao Xihe from his state of confusion.
She lifted a hand and propped it up against the closed door.
Pei Tingyuan must have had some misunderstanding about her before he said the words of divorce.
Therefore, she has to wait here for Pei Tingyuan to come back and solve the misunderstanding.
Qiao Xihe took out her mobile phone and called Pei Tingyuan again, and the reply she got was still "The phone you dialed could not be connected", after thinking about it, she plucked up her courage and went directly to the Pei family's old house.
It was the maid who picked up the phone, and as soon as he heard that it was the young lady calling, he hurriedly said, "The young master doesn't want to answer your call, don't come to harass him anymore." ”
After saying that, he hung up.
Qiao Xihe looked at the phone screen and muttered, "No, no...... I must wait until Pei Tingyuan comes back and explain clearly......"
She turned around slowly, picked up the clothes and objects scattered on the ground, and then put them in the suitcase, but she fell too hard just now, the lock was broken, and she couldn't buckle it, so she put the suitcase aside for the time being, and then sat on the box, quietly waiting for Pei Tingyuan to come back.
The rain was pouring down, and even though it was a summer night, there was a hint of coolness spreading.
Qiao Xihe hugged his arms and rubbed them, but he still felt very cold.
Since Pei Tingyuan was injured, she has not had a good rest, and now she has experienced this toss again, tired and hungry.
Although there was a box of instant noodles in the suitcase, there was no hot water, so she had to tear it open, sprinkle it with seasoning powder, and nibble on it a few bites.
After filling his stomach a little, he didn't feel so cold, Qiao Xihe continued to wait silently, until the sky was faint, and Pei Tingyuan did not appear.
Her heart gradually cooled.
Pei Tingyuan guessed that she would block the door, so didn't she come back?
Qiao Xihe stood up suddenly, the suitcase was broken, it was not easy to take it, and it was not easy to get a taxi here in Xisongyuan, she wanted to take out her mobile phone to call a taxi, but the mobile phone just popped up with a prompt that the battery was low and it would automatically shut down.
It's really a house leak that happened to rain overnight...... Qiao Xihe really realized it.
She looked at the sky, where the torrential rain had been pouring down endlessly after a brief pause half an hour earlier.
The umbrella was in Pei Tingyuan's suitcase, and she didn't have it at hand.
Qiao Xihe rummaged in the suitcase for a while, and actually pulled out a pack of disposable raincoats from the corner.
She breathed a sigh of relief, but fortunately, she didn't know why before, so she casually lost a pack of disposable raincoats in her suitcase, which she didn't expect to come in handy at such a time.
Putting on a raincoat, Qiao Xihe stepped into the rainstorm.
The raindrops of beans smashed on her body and the thunder roared in her ears, but they couldn't stop her from taking a firm step forward.
Xisongyuan can't work, she will go to the old house, if the old house can't find anyone, she will go to the company.
No matter how she is treated at that time, it is better than her and Pei Tingyuan separating because of a misunderstanding.
The street lamps emitted a dim glow in the rain, and there were no cars or other pedestrians at all, and it was almost impossible to distinguish the road, the sidewalk, the bushes next to it, and the obstacles on the road could not be seen.
Qiao Xihe stumbled forward all the way, even if he was wearing a pair of sneakers, he couldn't stop the discomfort of the sore soles of his feet.
She gritted her teeth, wiped her face, brushed away the rain that had blurred her vision, and continued walking.
I don't know how long I walked, but a blinding lightning bolt suddenly streaked across the sky, illuminating the surrounding scenery slightly.
Qiao Xihe noticed that he had already walked to the real estate that he went to see with Pei Tingyuan before leaving for the Seychelles.
Originally, he was happily planning a happy life in the future, but after the hasty end of the trip to Seychelles, everything came to naught.
All of a sudden, a strong sadness welled up in her heart.
Qiao Xihe raised her hand and pressed it on her chest, feeling that her heart was stuffy and painful, and it was so uncomfortable that she couldn't breathe.
She stretched out her hand and supported the trunk of the tree next to her, barely supporting her body, panting heavily, hoping to calm the sadness in her heart as soon as possible, and get a taxi as soon as possible so that she could go to the Pei family's old house.
At this time, in the sound of rain falling, there was an abnormal sound, from far and near.
Suddenly, there was a bright light around the dim surroundings.
Qiao Xihe seemed to be a person lost in the ocean and saw the island where he could survive, cheered up, rushed over, and shouted loudly with all his might: "Please stop the car, please stop the car!"
The car was just right, and it stopped firmly in front of her, and then the window glass slowly fell.
"I'm sorry, you can trouble me in the city, just get a taxi to the place where I can get a car, and I'll pay you ......" When the window fell, revealing the driver's face, Qiao Xihe was suddenly speechless.
It was the driver who broke the silence between the two, "What a coincidence, Mrs. Pei." ”
Qiao Xihe took a step back, "Why are you, Mr. Cui?"
"I'm here to find my friend's ...... What's wrong with you, Mrs. Pei, get in the car. Eric beckoned, an anxious look on his face.
Qiao Xihe hesitated for a moment and opened the door of the back seat of the car.
Eric restarted the car, glanced at Qiao Xihe, who was soaked and shivering, through the rearview mirror, and said, "There is my newly bought towel in the bag next to it, if you don't dislike it, you can wipe the water on your body first." ”
"Thank you. Qiao Xihe didn't care that it was a towel that had not been disinfected and cleaned, and quickly dried his body, otherwise, he would definitely catch a cold in a while.
"Are you cold? I'll turn on the heat a little, or you'll catch a cold like this." Eric added.
Qiao Xihe said: "I'm sorry for you." ”
"It's just a gesture, Mrs. Pei doesn't need to be so polite. After Eric turned on the air conditioner in the car, he picked up a cup of coffee and handed it to Qiao Xihe, "This is what I bought in the coffee shop before, and I haven't had time to drink it yet, although it is already warm, but it is better than nothing." ”
"No need. Qiao Xihe waved his hand, subconsciously resisting Eric's too much "favor".
Eric said, "Drink some." ”
Qiao Xihe still wanted to refuse, but his nose suddenly itched, and then he sneezed firmly.
Eric said: "So, you still have something to warm up, and when you get to the city, I'll see if there is a convenience store that is open twenty hours a day, and you should be able to buy hot coffee and soy milk, and you can drink some more." ”
Qiao Xihe hesitated for a moment, then took the coffee cup.
The warmth suddenly came out of the coffee cup, she couldn't help it, and took a small sip, which made her understand that her body was a little stiff, and gradually became more comfortable.
"Thank you very much, Mr. Choi. She thanked her again, looked out the window and hurriedly pulled out a few bills from her purse, "This is the money I should pay you, please be sure to accept it." Excuse me, just stop over here, okay?"
Eric parked the car on the side of the road as he said, and then looked back at Qiao Xihe, "Actually, you don't have to give me money." ”
"That's not going to work. Qiao Xihe said: "You must accept ......"
Speaking of this, she suddenly felt a burst of fever and dizziness in her head, thinking that she was drenched in rain and frozen, so she still had a cold and fever.
She raised her hand weakly and rubbed her brow, and then her eyes went black and she lost consciousness.
