It's still a bit chilly in the summer.

The two held an umbrella together and walked side by side on the bluestone road, and the bean-sized raindrops crackled and smashed down, causing small splashes.

Wantang couldn't walk fast in high heels, and Chi Yu seemed to have deliberately slowed down.

The rain was sprinkled, Wantang looked at him with a slight sideways face, he was originally very good-looking, and his eyebrows and eyes seemed to be dyed with the ink color of the landscape of this garden, and he seemed to be able to pinch out the water gently, which was completely different from the domineering president in her impression.

She only thought that he was worried about the old lady's condition, and comforted her softly: "Don't worry, the old lady Jiren has her own natural appearance, I will definitely cooperate with you to let the old man get better as soon as possible." ”

Hearing this, Chi Yu chuckled and turned his head.

"It turns out that the proprietress will comfort people in addition to scolding."

Wantang was eaten by the dog with good intentions, and couldn't help but get angry, "You...... You don't know what to do. ”

Chi Yu's smile spread in the rain, "Why don't you know what's wrong?" I'm obviously praising you. ”

Wantang learned his tone and said: "It turns out that the big guy is so ingenious in praising people. ”

Chi Yu was not annoyed, and looked at her deeply, her face shining clearly under the umbrella.

"Is it cold or not?"

"Huh?"

"Get in the car."

Chi Yu opened the door of the passenger seat and saw her get into the car, so he took the umbrella and sat in the main driver.

The black shadow of the car shuttled through the rain, and the raindrops hit the windshield of the car, and were quickly blown away by the wipers.

The car was very quiet, and in this case, even people's breathing would be amplified, Wantang was a little uncomfortable, and as soon as she got in the car, she rummaged through her bag, and quickly turned out a black wallet and handed it to Chi Yu.

"I almost forgot to pay you back."

Chi Yu motioned for her to set aside.

Seeing his casual appearance, Wantang couldn't help but joke, "If you don't check it, what if something is missing?" That check ......"

Before she finished speaking, she felt the car suddenly stop, and Chi Yu's hand left the steering wheel, unfastened the seat belt on her body, and then came over to her, whispering her name.

"Come to Wantang."

Good three words, somehow read out of his mouth, there is a charming feeling of lips and teeth.

Wantang was inexplicably a little nervous, her body instinctively shrank back, and her face was slightly off.

"Well, I'm kidding, that check is fine, I didn't move it at all."

Chi Yu's palms rested on her seat, and the two of them were close together, warm breath brushing her cheeks.

"That's not what I'm talking about."

"What's that?"

Wantang looked at him, his eyes were cloudy, and he didn't know what was hidden.

Chi Yu was tall, and he half-circled her in his seat and looked at her with lowered eyes.

A girl in her early twenties, with a goose yellow shirt and skinny jeans, faintly revealing a small waist, was nervously leaning her back against the car door at the moment, and her eyes trembled, like a butterfly flapping its wings.

"I mean, you forgot to wear your seatbelt."

He withdrew his gaze and lowered his head and pulled his seat belt to fasten it for her.

Just when Wantang secretly breathed a sigh of relief, his gaze met her again.

"What were you nervous about?"

"Who...... Who's nervous? ”

"And what are you blushing about?"

"You...... It's too hot in your car! ”

Chi Yu sighed, looked at her again, and then sat back in his seat, fastened his seat belt, and the car slid out again.

It was raining outside the car, and the car was a world of its own, and even the temperature was a little hot, Wantang took a deep breath and tried to ignore the ambiguity that was surging in the dark.

The two were speechless for a while, Wantang turned her head and looked at the dark night through the window.

The sound of the rain was quieter, but it became more and more disturbing, and it made people feel bored.

Fortunately, Chi Yu didn't speak again, and only concentrated on driving.

Wantang exhaled slowly, hung her head, and looked at Chi Yu's hand on the steering wheel, I have to say that these hands are still quite good-looking, slender and powerful.

She looked at it for a while before she retracted her thoughts, but she remembered another thing, and she was so anxious that she scratched her liver and lungs.

I really want to talk to Chi Yu, but I'm afraid that he won't agree, after all, I don't have a deep friendship with others, and it is very likely that she will be pouted back as soon as she opens her mouth, but if you don't say it, I will panic in my heart.

She thought for a while, and saw that she was almost home, so she opened her mouth with a heartfelt heart.

"Mr. Chi, you took the land from my restaurant, what do you want to use it for?"

"Well, I haven't thought about it yet."

"Didn't think about what you were going to do?"

"The feng shui of that lot is good, I'll take it and put it first, and I'll talk about it when I think about it later."

What kind of reasoning is this?

Wantang really wanted to say, "Shut up, you rich man!" But I held back.

It's just that if you can't reason with the rich, you can't fight and fight, so you can only use sugar-coated shells.

She scratched her head, pulled out a smile, and leaned over to him, like a begging pug.

"Mr. Chi, since you're useless, why don't you transfer that small courtyard house to me."

"To you?"

"Well, I pay, pay at the market price!"

"Why?"

"Hmm...... Is Feng Shui any good? ”

Wantang didn't dare to tell the truth.

The real reason is, of course, that she is reluctant to run a small restaurant that she has been running for three years, the place is indeed in a good location, opposite the commercial area, behind the residential area, and next to a large vegetable market, the flow of people is huge, and the business is very good on weekends and holidays, and she has lived in the backyard for three years, and has long regarded it as her own home, and she does not want to move out of private feelings, but the property right certificate of the small courtyard house in the hands of others always makes her feel uneasy, and there is a feeling that she will be driven away at any time.

But she was afraid that if she told the truth, Chi Yu would be like that Liu Datou, relying on her love for restaurants, and refused to transfer the small courtyard house to her, although he didn't look like that kind of person.

But who can guarantee that he is a good person? Wantang didn't know him well, so he really didn't dare to take such a risk.

Wantang felt that she was a little bit of a villain's heart, but she comforted herself that it was indispensable to guard against others, and the expression on her face was very entangled for a while.

Hearing this, Chi Yu glanced at her.

He knew she wasn't telling the truth.

On the night of Liu Datou's trouble, he felt that something was wrong, so he immediately asked Zhang Yuan to investigate, and the next day he knew the ins and outs of the matter.

In order to protect this little girl, Chi Yu thought about it again and again, and deliberately asked Zhang Yuan to buy the small courtyard house from Liu Datou, and even bought the entire street in order to hide people's eyes, and the official reason for the outside world was to use it for new projects.

But the little girl didn't tell him the truth, he felt a little lost inexplicably, and said lightly: "I want to think about it." ”

Wantang didn't hear the discouragement in his voice, but when he really agreed to think about it, he jumped more and more excitedly.

"Mr. Chi, you are so good! In the future, when you come to the store to eat, I will give you an 80% discount, no, a 5% discount, okay? ”

"However, I can't come up with that much money at once, can I pay in installments?"

"How much is the down payment? I've got to scrape together the money. ”

Her little mouth began to horn again, and the depression that had just risen in Chi Yu's heart was dissipated by her shouting, and she looked at her with a smile.

"You dare to speak without money?"

Wantang's little face flushed.

"Who says I don't have any money? If you have money, you just don't have enough. ”

"I've made a lot of money in the past three years, really! Anyway, I'm also an Internet celebrity, how can I be worthy of my identity if I don't make money. ”

"But I've always wanted to get a bigger house for my parents, they still live in the old city, and the house is small and dilapidated, so I have to set aside that part of the money to buy a house, so that the money on hand is not enough to buy a small courtyard."

The car happened to pass a red light, and Chi Yu stopped the car, leaned back in the chair and laughed.

"I didn't see you being so filial."

Wantang glanced at him, "You are only allowed to be filial to the old lady, but I am not allowed to be filial to my parents?" ”

"Since you are so rich, little rich woman, you will pay back the little money you owe me first, right?"

Wantang's eyes widened, "When did I owe you money?" ”

"Let me remind you, the last time you sent WeChat, you cursed, a total of four times, a total of 400 yuan."

"Damn, are you serious?"

"Five hundred, I don't accept cash, I only accept transfers, please make a little rich woman.

"Mali, your sister......"

"Six hundred, by the way, what is the bank interest now, wait for me to calculate!"

Chi Yu really took out his mobile phone and called up the calculator to settle the account.

Wantang held him down, and her big eyes blinked.

"Big guy, give me a way to live, okay?"

Chi Yu lowered her head, her slender fingers pressing on his hand, and there was a strange temperature coming from the place where they met.

The corners of his lips hooked, "Okay, tomorrow you come to the house to accompany grandma to dinner, and I will spare you." ”

Wantang pouted, "Not tomorrow, tomorrow is my mother's birthday, I invited relatives and friends to eat in my store to celebrate, can I do it another day?" ”

As she spoke, the green light turned on, and she withdrew her hand.

The corners of Chi Yu's lips drooped again, and he held the steering wheel expressionlessly and drove forward.

"Oh, by the way, your coat is washed, when am I going to send it back for you?"

"I'm not in a hurry to wear it, I'll go over and get it myself when I have time."

When she arrived at the restaurant, the rain began to get heavier again, and Chi Yu escorted her into the store with an umbrella, and then returned to the car.

But he didn't start the car again for a long time.

He lit a cigarette and sat quietly, his eyes fixed on the restaurant.

A couplet was posted on the door of the restaurant.

The fireworks in the world are the most soothing to the hearts of mortals.

There are only ten words, which are more and more eye-catching in the vast rain.

The cigarette butts in the car were flickering and extinguishing, and Chi Yu's thoughts drifted away with the rain.

He clearly remembered that the first time he saw Wantang was on such a rainy night.

When he was eighteen years old, his parents died suddenly in a car accident, his grandmother was ill under grief, and his two younger brothers were still young.

At that time, the company happened to be in difficulty, and the capital turnover could not be opened, so he sold all the houses and cars except the old mansion to barely maintain the operation, and he had to maneuver around with a young face.

When you fall into the mud, many so-called friends will kick you in order to prevent you from getting back up. At that time, Chi Yu didn't know how to do business, suffered a lot of losses, and was ridiculed by many people, but he always gritted his teeth and held on.

Only once, he couldn't hold on.

It was a rainy night, and he drove a second-hand broken car to a dinner alone. Present was the largest customer of the Chilin Group, Chi Yu carefully accompanied the smiling face, and was poured a lot of wine, but the business eventually turned yellow, because the customer felt that he was unreliable as a hairy boy, so he changed hands and gave the order to someone else.

Chi Yu had a big fight with red eyes, and then drove home angrily, and the tire burst before he drove a few meters, and the alcohol all over the sky came up, and he lay on the steering wheel and vomited and cried.

That night, the night sky seemed to collapse, the sound of rain roared in a row, the rain whipped the ground, and at the same time whipped his heart, depressed grievances, helpless confusion, exhaustion and despair, all erupted at that moment.

There was not a single pedestrian on the road, and he cried until someone knocked on his car window.

He looked up, and a girl's face was reflected in his teary eyes.

The girl was wearing his high school uniform, riding a bicycle, soaking wet, and she couldn't see what was going on inside him through the glass, but waved anxiously for him to open the trunk.

Chi Yu didn't understand what she was going to do, but for the sake of the alumni, he still did it, only to see the girl throw the bicycle, skillfully drag out the spare tire and toolbox from the trunk, change the tire quickly in the heavy rain, then walked to the window and knocked again, smiled at him, signaled him to change, and then picked up the bicycle and rode away quickly.

The moment she was leaving, Chi Yu could see the name tag pinned to her chest through the glass.

Come to Wantang.

She was fifteen years old that year, and in this misty world, she cleanly soothed his mortal heart.
