The rain became heavier and heavier, and Onkyo persuaded Zhang Nanyan to stay in the studio at night.

"It's raining so hard that it's not safe on the road." Onkyo raised his hands and said solemnly: "Don't worry, I will never do anything!" ”

"I believe in you." Zhang Nanyan looked outside the house, the rain did not decrease at all, and the yard was already full of rainwater, gurgling and bubbling.

It seems that I really can't go now, even if I'm not afraid of the rain, it's not easy to sit in the car.

She had to stay for the time being.

They started chatting, and Onkyo talked about his hometown, his childhood, and the places he had walked, his experiences and feelings about growing up......

Zhang Nanyan talked about the poor mountain village where she was born, and the hardships and scarcity of her schooling......

Their lives are so different from each other, and they also see each other's different worlds.

He has loved painting since he was a child and has been committed to art for the rest of his life.

She vows to fight against fate and take charge of her own life!

They are all working hard for their ideals, and their common spirit allows them to understand each other.

Chatting and laughing, at this moment, they really understand each other and become real confidants.

The rain is getting lighter.

Zhang Nanyan got up and said, "The rain is light, I'll go back." ”

"Yan, don't you still believe me?" Onkyo was anxious to stand up.

"Onkyo, I'll teach you an idiom, take care of each other!"

"Liver? Gall bladder? Onkyo gestured at his stomach, puzzled.

"Yes, friends should trust each other and treat each other with all sincerity!"

"Then you still want to go?"

"I'm really leaving, it's too late." Zhang Nanyan smiled playfully: "This is our Chinese etiquette. ”

"But the rain hasn't stopped."

"It's okay, I have an umbrella." She picked up the umbrella at the door and hoisted it.

"I'll send you back...... Don't refuse, that's what my country requires of a gentleman. ”

……

After getting out of the taxi, Anqiao had to send Zhang Nanyan downstairs. Together, they walked to the teacher's family home.

It was late and there was no one on campus. The street lamps were obscured by the heavy rain, and they were groggy, and the strong wind just now blew off the branches and leaves of the trees.

Zhang Nanyan walked with one shallow foot and one foot deep, stepping on the branches from time to time, splashing the rain and wetting her trouser legs.

The wind was still blowing, the umbrella was about to be blown over from time to time, and the rain was pouring down on the faces of the two men.

Anqiao was so choked by the wind and rain that he couldn't speak, so he had to try his best to block in front of Zhang Nanyan and help her block some of the wind and rain.

Even so, the petite Zhang Nanyan was still beaten by the wind and rain and made it difficult to walk.

"Yan, hold me!" Ankyo squinted his eyes and said loudly, reaching back with his hand.

This damn rain hits the face, making it impossible to open your eyes and hear the sound clearly!

Anqiao was still waiting for Zhang Nanyan to lead him, only to hear a surprise call sounding behind him: "Teacher Zheng!" ”

Then I saw Zhang Nanyan's figure trotting, passing him and rushing to a figure in front.

Anqiao was stunned, he touched the rain on his face, and muttered: "This is black, can you still see who it is?" ”

Zhang Nanyan had already rushed to the front, and she recognized it at a glance that the person in front of her was Zheng Fan.

She could already see clearly that Zheng Fan was standing in the rain with an umbrella, and he showed a gentle smile to her in front of him, and his bearing was so calm, as if he was not standing outdoors in the wind and rain, but leisurely walking in the bright spring light.

Zhang Nanyan's anxious heart settled down all of a sudden, and the anxiety caused by the storm and the hard work of running all the way disappeared all at once, replaced by a strong sense of relief. When she saw Teacher Zheng, she knew that she had arrived home.

"Teacher......" she called out.

Zheng Fan stepped forward and stretched out his hand: "Slow down, be careful." ”

She couldn't wait to take Zheng Fan's hand, jump over a puddle, and come to his side.

"Teacher, why are you here?" She asked in surprise and worry: "It's raining so hard, why are you still going out, you'll catch a cold." ”

Zheng Fan asked her with concern: "It's not that you won't be in a hurry to come back if it's raining, why are you still rushing back in the rain?" Cold or not? ”

Zhang Nanyan shook her head vigorously: "It's not cold." ”

Zheng Fan felt the cold little hand in his palm, he knew that he should let go, but the cold temperature made him feel sorry, and after hesitating for a moment, he still let go of his hand.

"Let's go home."

"Hmm!" Zhang Nanyan replied sweetly, she turned around and waved her hand at Anqiao: "Don't come here, the water is deep, go back quickly!" ”

Anqiao watched her fly to others like a homecoming milk swallow, and her heart was uneven, "This is holding hands?" My hands are still shaking in the wind. ”

Onkyo looked at his wet whole body and said in his heart, "I'm all soaked, I don't care about these two steps." ”

"Onkyo, thank you!"

Onkyo hurriedly replied: "You're welcome......"

…… Isn't it just "polite", what do you say about confidantes, what do you say about treating each other with sincerity, it's all polite! ……

However, Onkyo only dared to secretly slander a few words.

Zhang Nanyan followed behind Zheng Fan and went home together.

She watched Zheng Fan walk in front of her, but her thin back was so solid and powerful at the moment, like a towering mountain, sheltering her from the wind and rain and pointing her in the direction.

When going up the stairs, Zhang Nanyan saw that Mr. Zheng's trouser leg was already half wet. A thought suddenly appeared in her mind, did Mr. Zheng pick her up on purpose? Yes, it must be! However, how does Teacher Zheng know when she will return? He may have been waiting for a long time, and if she came back a little later, or if she did stay overnight, how long would he have waited in the wind and rain?

For the first time, there was a person who didn't think about external factors and just cared about her wholeheartedly.

The children in the mountains worship the mountains the most, and the mountains are majestic and block the wind and rain for people; The mountains are tolerant and nurture the lives of generations of people; The mountains are gentle and give people beautiful scenery in all four seasons.

Since she was a child, Zhang Nanyan was just a weak and pitiful girl, her biological parents abandoned her because of poverty, her adoptive parents only used her as a tool to recruit their sons, no one loved her and cared about her, she was like a weed that fended for herself. She used to envy Zhang Xiong, her parents doted on him so much, and she envied other children, who were cared for by their parents and relatives. Gradually, she discovers that under poverty and ignorance, love can also be distorted, and she begins to yearn for a hero to save her from a backward and ignorant life. This hero is like a mountain, no matter what kind of storm he faces, he is not afraid.

At this moment, she looked at Zheng Fan's thin but calm back, as if she saw the towering mountains of her hometown, and she felt a sense of security that she had never felt before.

"Teacher...... It was Onkyo just now, it's my friend, a friend who looks like each other......" Zhang Nanyan was suddenly afraid that Zheng Fan would misunderstand, just like he was afraid of his parents misunderstanding. She explained anxiously.

I don't know if it's her delusion, but she seems to see Teacher Zheng's straight shoulders seem to relax.

He turned around, smiled softly at her, and said, "We're home." ”
