Five years ago.

In the early morning of the summer day in July, the heavens and the earth are like hanging an incomparably wide bead curtain, misty, and the raindrops fall on the asphalt road, splashing beautiful water.

Mu Xiaolei held a black oil-paper umbrella in one hand and rode a second-hand electric car in the other. She frowned, uh, why did Mom give her this umbrella?

The slanting rain grew stronger and heavier with the wind, which swayed and swayed her oil-paper umbrella.

With such a heavy rain, it's better to wear through the alleys, and there are no people anyway.

The rain hit her with a chill, and she simply tilted her umbrella slightly forward, so that at least it wouldn't get wet. After riding for a long time, she raised her umbrella to see that there was no one in front of her, and a bright smile appeared on her face.

Just as she was smug, a behemoth skewered out in front of her and knocked her down.

"Ahh She fell in the rain, and the oil-paper umbrella was blown aside by the wind.

She was about to go crazy, but she saw a handsome face with features like carvings, a young man pursed his thin lips, and the whole person exuded a kind of king aura that was mighty in the world. It's just that he fell in the rain in an extremely embarrassed way, and his hair may be the reason for the rain, and he looks like a traitor.

"Little traitor." Mu Xiaolei almost blurted out.

"What did you just call me?" The man stood up from the ground with a gloomy face, and a cold voice rang out.

"Uh," she coughed lightly, "you don't have eyes when you walk!" Don't see Ben riding a bike? ”

The man frowned his thick sword eyebrows in displeasure, and suddenly seemed to think of something, and there was an imperceptible smile in his inky eyes.

"What do you say? Big stupid bird! ”

I'm going, what? What the hell is a big stupid bird? Did he say he was a birdman? Mu Xiaolei instantly lost her hair.

"Hmph, I'm obviously a little traitor, but I say I'm a big stupid bird, you really don't have any gentlemanly demeanor." She glared viciously at the man.

The smile on the man's lips deepened, and his thick eyebrows were slightly raised, looking at her with interest.

"Why did I get it?"

Hey? It should be almost eight o'clock by now, and she will be too late if she doesn't leave.

"Hmph, it's not for the sake of this girl's hurry, I will never let you go, a little traitor!"

She picked up the electric car in a huff, walked not far away, picked up the oil-paper umbrella, but was seen by the man.

He raised the corners of his mouth and laughed, "Are you from ancient times?" The big stupid bird is carrying such an umbrella. ”

"You don't care. Hum! ”

She was really angry, and she had the urge to beat up this little traitor.

When he came to the bookstore, it was a quarter past eight, and Boss Shen was naturally unhappy and put on a dejected face.

Mu Xiaolei felt that she was extremely unlucky today, she had just met the man who made her lose her hair in minutes, and now she had to look at the face of a fat and bald man.

"Xiaolei, you're finally here, that bald girl has asked you several times." Yang Lu said in a low voice.

"What bad luck this morning." She told Yang Lu what had happened.

"Well, sort of. Don't be angry, the two of us are in a group today, it's really good! ”

"Great!" Listening to Yang Lu's words, her unhappiness swept away.

In the afternoon, Mu Xiaolei was packing up her books.

A low and slightly cool voice sounded behind her: "Miss, excuse me, where is the book on finance and economics?" ”

She turned her head suddenly, oh! Isn't this the same hateful little traitor in the morning?

The man saw a smile flash in her eyes.

It's really a narrow road! Mu Xiaolei wanted to tease him!

"Sir, please go this way." She smiled and walked to the front bookshelf, pulled out a book and handed it to him.

"Sir, I think you're a good fit for this book."

"Money-Fans-Heart-Tricks." The man's narrow peach blossom eyes narrowed slightly, and the corners of his mouth raised slightly, "It seems that I have to ask that chubby boss to recommend a book!" ”

"You? - Humph! Damn little traitor! ”

"Big stupid bird, don't you think we're very fateful? Two strangers met twice on the same day. ”

"Fate? I don't dare ask for that word, it's terrifying. Don't you think? ”

The man ignored her, picked one out of the bookshelf, and handed it to her.

"Just choose this one," he smiled meaningfully at Mu Xiaolei and left.

Slums on the outskirts. The uneven rubble, peeling walls, uneven gravel paths, and disgusting garbage heaps can be seen everywhere.

Mu Xiaolei rode home on an electric car, Liang Yurou was washing vegetables, and Mu Shaoqiang had not come back yet.

"Mom, I'm back!"

This child, as soon as she came back, shouted loudly, I was afraid that people would not know that she was back. The woman smiled with love on her face.

"Mom, don't give me that umbrella in the future, someone will knock me down." She deliberately tightened her face.

"Lei Lei, mom, look at it, where did you hit it?"

"Hehehe, it's okay, he was in my way, I hit him ......"

"Why don't you look good on the road and hit someone? By the way, have you ever taken someone to see a doctor? A girl's house, it's really not like ......."

"Lei Lei, I'm making your mother angry again!" As soon as Mu Shaoqiang entered the courtyard, after listening to the woman's lesson, a thick smile appeared on his face.

"No, Dad, I'm the most obedient kid." She coquettishly pulled Mu Shaoqiang's arm.

"You! A little trickster. Mu Shaoqiang smiled a little on her forehead.

"Not really."

"Look at this kid, you've spoiled you." Liang Yurou glanced at Mu Xiaolei, and said to Mu Shaoqiang beside her, "Have all today's dishes been sold?" His dad. ”

"Hmph, it's all sold."

The next morning, a ray of morning light shot into the hut through the unconcealed curtains.

Mu Xiaolei stretched her waist and opened the curtains, and pushed open the peeling wooden window, and the fragrance of earth and flowers in the air came in, faintly smelling good. At this time, Mu's father and mother had already gone to the vegetable market to pick up vegetables. She was about to fetch water and wash up when her phone rang.

"Hey, Xiao Mu, I'm going to let you and Yang Lu go to Jinling City, Mr. Hongtai sponsors a poor school, you go and order all his books. You know Hongtai, right?"

Who doesn't know about Hongtai? The company, which deals in real estate, high-end luxury goods, and high-end hotels, is staggeringly large. Although there is only one real estate branch in City C, the housing prices are astronomical.

"Yes, Boss Shen." Mu Xiaolei was a little hesitant in her heart, but thinking that her family's life was quite poor, she didn't say anything more.

"It's good to know, I've already arranged accommodation in Jinling City, you go to Hongtai to find their relevant person in charge, I'll give you your contact information, if you complete this task, I'll give you a bonus of 3,000 yuan each."

She felt a little comforted when she thought that this money could reduce the burden on her parents and use it for living expenses when she started school.

"Thank you, boss, we will definitely live up to expectations."

Bidding farewell to their parents, Mu Xiaolei and Yang Lu embarked on a thousand-mile journey away from the city.

As soon as they got out of the car, they rushed to the hotel they had booked. No matter how unfamiliar the place is, you know that this is a hotel where birds don't lay eggs.

Mu Xiaolei is nothing, Yang Lu said sadly: "Xiaolei, we were deceived by that bald child!" I said, he was so kind to arrange food and accommodation for us, and gave us so much money. ”

"Don't be sad, let's go in, we're here anyway." She comforted Yang Lu.

"Well, let's go, that's all there is to it."

Upon entering, there was a faded billboard that read "IKEA Hotel". Mu Xiaolei's feet slipped and fell, I'll go! There is so much water on the tiles of this small inn.

"Xiaolei, you didn't fall and get hurt, did you?" Yang Lu helped Mu Xiaolei up and asked with concern.

"It's okay, I'm too embarrassed!"

"Be careful."

They stood on the watery tiled floor and glanced around with their eyes.

A faded square table, a middle-aged fat woman in an oil-stained T-shirt is lying on it, snoring, drooling from the corners of her mouth, the big spider on the roof is lazily weaving a web with leisurely steps, and some miscellaneous items are pushed aside.

"Excuse me, Auntie, where is the boss here?" Mu Xiaolei leaned over and said to the woman.

The fat woman didn't hear it, she still snored high and low.

"Mouse!" Mu Xiaolei screamed.

"Mouse! Where are the rats? The fat woman jumped up and looked around in panic.

"Auntie, the rats have long been frightened away by my calls. Excuse me, where is the boss here? Mu Xiaolei smiled evilly.

"Oh, you're trying to scare me to death! What did you just call me? Aunt? Am I that old? Call me sister. The fat woman rolled her eyes and wiped the saliva from the corners of her mouth with her black and fat hand.

Mu Xiaolei is full of black lines......

"Ah, no, I mean sister-sister, may I ask where the boss here is?"

"You two stinky girls, do you want to eat or stay in the hotel? Just tell me something! The fat sister glanced at them.

"Sister, you are the eldest sister here, I'm sorry we don't know Taishan, you don't remember villains, you smoke!"

Mu Xiaolei bent over, walked to the eldest sister who was holding Erlang's leg and wearing sunglasses, took out the long-rod cigarette holder hidden behind her back, and held it with both hands.

"Sister, you smoke, I'll light the fire."

She clumsily took out the cremation stone and rubbed it vigorously in front of the eldest sister, only to see sparks splashing everywhere and splashing on the eldest sister's hair, and the hair began to smoke, and the smoke became thicker and thicker, and it caught fire.

"Haha!" She laughed out loud, of course, the one she had just thought of with her super imagination.

"Xiaolei, what are you laughing at?" Yang Lu tugged at her arm.

"Nothing. Sister - you are the boss here, we are employees from the 'Huicai' bookstore in City C, did our boss book a room here? ”

"Is your boss's surname Shen, nickname Goudan?"

What the? Dogs? Hehehe.

"Yes, sister, our boss is called Dogan, how do you know?" Yang Lu suppressed a smile.

"He's my distant cousin, and since he's arranged for you to come here, I'll treat you well." The fat sister smiled and led them up to the second floor.
