Chapter 180: Lower and More Visible
After school in the morning, Lin An came to Anyuan Square.
In just a few days, Yang Wenmin shouted that he was about to go crazy, saying that Zhang Weishan's group had issued a long list of equipment, all of which needed to be imported from abroad, and it was still very expensive. If he continued to buy like this, Yang Wenmin wondered if An Yuan would also have to be dragged down by this institute.
While he had time, Lin An asked Yang Wenmin to come to Changxi. The first is to discuss the funds needed for the research and development of LCD screens, and the second is to appease Yang Wenmin by the way, and let Yang Wenmin be prepared. After all, it's just the beginning, and when the research lab is built and the equipment is bought, that's when the money is burned the most.
The short break at noon was a boxed lunch eaten in the office, and Lin An lost his appetite after eating half of it.
When he came out of the meeting and found that it was already more than three o'clock, he went out of the office area to see the surging crowd on the fifth floor, and then looked at the more crowded Tang Ji, he gave up his plan to eat and decided to wait to go to Xiangzhu Hotel to eat.
There are many people in elevators and escalators, and Lin An felt that there was nothing to do when he went back in the afternoon, so he walked slowly down the circular walkway from the fifth floor to check the business conditions of these settled businesses.
To the third floor, passing a row of women's clothing stores, from the floor-to-ceiling windows on the side, he accidentally saw that it was still raining outside, he remembered that he played an umbrella, handed it to the office secretary before the meeting, and chatted with Yang Wenmin for a while after the meeting, and when he left, he didn't see the secretary, and he forgot that there was an umbrella.
After a pause, Lin An was about to turn around and return to the fifth floor, when he caught a glimpse of a familiar figure flashing in the shop on the side.
Curiously walked over, looked in through the glass window, and was pleasantly surprised to find that it was Ruan Ruan. The little guy had his back to the window, and he was wearing a long brown tweed shirt that he didn't usually wear, so he didn't recognize it at once.
I met in Shonan last Sunday. In the past two or three days, I basically haven't seen Ruan Soft much. And when we came back by car that day, I didn't find a chance to talk to her. The last time she took the car, she specially sat in the middle to quarrel with him, but this time she went to the window early, and along the way, she either focused on looking at the scenery outside the window, or leaned on Tang Xiaonan's shoulder and closed her eyes to rest.
Raise your feet to enter the store. I noticed that there was a girl who was about the same age as Ruan Ruan, and looking at the way the two of them talked, they should know each other well. Lin An retracted his feet and paused, turned his head to look left and right, this row is full of women's clothing stores, underwear stores and the like, and boys should rarely come here, especially when they are alone.
On the way to or from school, I have never seen this girl walking with Ruan Ruan and Tang Xiaonan, and I don't think I should be in the same direction as them. Thinking that when Ruan Ruan and this girl came out of the mall, they should be separated. Or at most they will be separated at Shishui Bridge, he decided to go downstairs first, and then "meet" by chance when Ruan Ruan comes down, and then he should be able to go back with Ruan Ruan by the way.
Lin An hurriedly ran downstairs and stood by the supermarket service desk near the gate for a while, and when he noticed that everyone in the mall was holding umbrellas, he remembered that his umbrella was still on the fifth floor. It was too late to run up and get it, so I hurried into the supermarket to buy a new umbrella. Then he came down from the exit on the second floor, just in time to see Ruan Ruan's figure walking out of the door of the mall.
Laughing hurriedly chased after him. Lifted the windshield curtain at the door and walked out, when he saw it clearly, he couldn't help but cover his head, and the heavens and the earth seemed to be spinning.
In an orange umbrella that had just walked down the steps and was about to go away, there stood two figures, one large and one small, and the smaller one was Ruan Ruan, who was wearing the brown tweed clothes. The other person was a strange boy, the two were very close, and they were faintly holding hands together through the cover of the shopping bag in the middle.
His heart seemed to be torn apart, and Lin An felt that his voice was distorted and out of tune. I don't know if I shouted something. He staggered into the rain, jumped down the stairs and caught up with the umbrella, grabbing the little hand and pulling it back.
"Ah~ what do you want to do?"
"Who are you!"
Lin An was stunned on the spot for the strange girl who was frightened by this sudden incident, and for the strange boy who glared at him angrily after being stunned, Lin An was stunned on the spot, and immediately reacted and quickly let go, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry." I recognized the wrong person!"
The other party stood in the rain and sincerely bent down to apologize, the two saw that it was really a misunderstanding, and the other party sincerely apologized, looked at Lin An a few times like a nervous patient, although they were displeased, the two did not pursue it further, and then left with an umbrella.
Not Ruan Soft. However, this girl seems to be the one who visited the store with Ruan Ruan, the girl is very similar to Ruan Ruan, and she is wearing the dress Ruan Ruan wore just now, so she will accidentally misidentify her.
Lin An pressed his chest, feeling funny, but he couldn't laugh at all, he mistakenly thought it was Ruan Soft before, and the heart-rending pain still hadn't completely subsided.
Turning around with a breath, he saw a cracked hot drink falling on the steps in front of him, and his eyes gradually moved up, and he saw the little girl who was afraid of losing it, wearing a pink down jacket, holding a pale pink umbrella in one hand, and holding a drink cup in one hand.
No way!
Lin An stood stiffly in place, and when he saw Ruan Ruan on the steps, he immediately lowered his gaze, and he grinned bitterly. Ruan Ruan shouldn't have seen that scene just now, right? With the drink that fell to the ground, based on Ruan Ruan's appearance at the moment. Is this possible!
The cleaner in the mall came out and cleaned up the drinks on the ground, Ruan Ruan was awakened with a red face and apologized, looked at Lin An who was standing below in the rain, and looked at the distance, hesitating whether to run away immediately.
Gradually, seeing that Lin An was still standing in the rain, Ruan Soft, who was so entangled that his eyes were misty and watery, finally walked down the steps with a low face, raised his hand and covered the person in front of him with an umbrella.
When I came to Anyuan to shop today, I didn't find a sweater I liked, but Meng Lin, who came with her, picked out a tweed jacket, and she was going to buy it when she went shopping with Xiaonan later.
When I got off the escalator and bought a drink on the first floor, I met a male classmate in the class, and later saw Meng Lin squirming and saying that she wanted to go back first, and asked her not to say it, so she vaguely understood, and then saw Meng Lin and the male classmate walking away intimately together.
It turned out that the rumors in the class that the two of them had a private relationship were true! However, she didn't have the leisure to take care of other people's affairs! Both of them were obviously so young, and they were only in their first year of high school, so they actually ......
noticed that Meng Lin and the male classmate were secretly holding hands together, and she felt embarrassed when she saw it. After walking out of the mall, she hurriedly pretended to have something to do, planning to wait for the two of them to go away before leaving. Meng Lin's house is on the other side of Shishui Bridge, if she walks like this, she is likely to walk to Shishui Bridge together, she is unwilling.
Seeing the two of them holding umbrellas and walking down the steps, Ruan Soft breathed a sigh of relief, and then the curtain on the door beside her was suddenly opened, and she saw that it was Lin An who ran out of breath.
Her cheeks were hot, she nervously grabbed the hot drink in her hand, and was thinking about whether to say hello casually, but when she saw Lin An's face suddenly change greatly, she ran down with a hoarse shout, rushed behind Meng Lin and the male classmate, and grabbed Meng Lin's hand......
The raindrops kept beating on the umbrella cloth, and there was a tendency to get heavier and heavier. Seeing Ruan Ruan's hard work to hold the umbrella, Lin An took the umbrella, and saw Ruan Ruan then lowering his hands, eager to lower his red face to his chest, he scratched his wet hair in distress.
"Let's go over there!" Lin An looked around, pointing to the row of pavilions where the fountain connected the street in the distance. This is inspired by Shonan Anyuan Plaza, which does not cost much and can have one more "attraction" to attract popularity.
It's raining, the weather is cold, there are no people over there, several gazebos are connected together, it is a place to shelter from the rain, and the privacy is better than standing in the square and going back to the mall.
Ruan Ruan's chest rose and fell, he couldn't breathe, but he didn't dare to breathe, and his cheeks were already hot. She twisted her toes nervously, and when she heard Lin An's voice, she glanced over, and then lowered her little head in panic, and whispered in a short voice, "...... Good. ”
There were quite a few people around the pavilion, but they all hurried by. In such a season and weather, no one will come here to sit and relax, let alone admire the unopened fountain, even if they need temporary shelter from the rain, they will go to the shopping mall not far away.
Walking into the pavilion and leading Ruan Ruan to sit on the dry stone platform on the side, Lin An felt that it was necessary to explain. He turned around and said to Ruan Ruan, who lowered his eyes as if he was looking for something on tiptoe, "I was in the mall before...... I saw you wearing that tweed shirt and thought that girl was you!"
Seeing Ruan Ruan's little head hanging down even lower when he heard the voice, Lin An patted his forehead speechlessly, he was really dizzy, isn't this explanation more obvious!.
