Chapter 18: The Fire
Xiao Xia helped the director check the file, and when she went home, it was already past dinner time. As soon as she entered, she only saw Wanli sitting there reading a book with relish.
Post "What about Ruan Zhan? β
Post "He went to the supermarket to buy something. "Wan Li didn't lift his head.
But his car was still outside. Xiao Xia looked out the door. Today's weather is very abnormal, in the middle of November, it actually rains in winter, and it feels very wet and cold, and if you get drenched, you will definitely get sick.
Released "Not far away, ten minutes by the way, he used the legs." β
Posted "Got an umbrella with you?" β
Post "Huh? Wanli finally looked up, "Is it raining?" I thought it was going to snow. Don't worry, he's not stupid, he'll wait for the rain to stop and come back. As he spoke, he ran to the door to check the weather, "However, the winter rain doesn't seem to be easy to stop, so it's hard to say, he still has something to do at night, maybe he will run back in the rain." β
Post "Are you going to pick him up?" β
Post "No. Wanli was surprised by Xiao Xia's proposal, "Two big men pick it up, and people who don't know the inside story will think that we are broken arms, which seriously damages my image." Also, what if he falls in love with me for it? β
released Xiao Xia Qi knot, "Don't listen to your nonsense, I'll go by myself." β
Post "You? Don't use it, right? This little rain won't kill people. β
"He's our only archmage, if there are three longs and two shorts, everyone won't have a good life." Xiao Xia said as she ran upstairs, then took the umbrella and ran out again.
She didn't want Ruan Zhan to get sick, whether it was to make better use of him, or whether she felt sorry for him, she couldn't figure it out at all.
Shi Wanli watched Xiao Xia come and go in a hurry, and couldn't even insert a word, so he could only be silent for a long time at the breath that seemed to be still turbulent, and then said to himself: "Now Ah Zhan is going to hand over the gun, this dead girl is hitting his weakness." He slowly paced back to his seat, remembering the childhood he had spent with Ruan Zhan.
At the time of the release, every rainy season, the school gate was full of parents of students after the rain, holding umbrellas to take their children home. Although Ruan Zhan's father adopted him, he was very serious and indifferent to him and never picked him up at school. Whenever this time, Ruan Zhan left alone in the rain, didn't know how to shelter from the rain at all, and didn't run, just walked back step by step, even if anyone wanted to hold an umbrella with him, he stubbornly refused. For this reason, the people in the town even rumored how strange Ruan Zhan was.
He didn't understand it when he was a child, and he was angry about this, thinking that everyone is good friends, and what else do they share with each other. But after Ruan Zhan got drunk for the only time since he was a child, he realized that Ruan Zhan was so envious that someone could wait for him in the rain, and he was so eager for someone to pick him up when it rained, even if it was only once.
released, but he has never enjoyed such ordinary warmth!
The confused but considerate Xiao Xia ran away recklessly, achieving the first time in Ah Zhan's life, and I am afraid that his cold heart will melt for her. It's ridiculous to think about it, so many women want to capture Ruan Zhan's heart, but no one thought that it could be done with just such a small thing.
Thinking like this, he couldn't calm down anymore to read a book, and ran to look under the eaves in front of the store, but Xiao Xia was long gone.
Released because Xiao Xia was running fast, for fear that he wouldn't be able to catch up, but from a long distance, he saw Ruan Zhan carrying a bag of things, and he was walking out without thinking, "Stop!" She shouted, startling many people, including Ruan Zhan.
Announcing the run, her chest rose and fell violently, and her feet were so weak that she had to grab Ruan Zhan's arm with one hand to maintain her balance, "Do you still have any common sense?" She reproached loudly, regardless of whether anyone was watching, "If there is something important to do now, you will definitely get sick in the rain in this weather." β
Ruan Zhan was stunned there, a little dazed for a while. He watched Xiao Xia try to calm her breathing, still holding the umbrella in her hand, listening to her complain about him in the tone that she only had when talking to the people closest to him, and suddenly felt something in his heart collapse with a bang, and he couldn't say a word.
Post "Yay? Not leaving? How can I recruit you again because I taught you not to get wet in the rain? Childish man! Xiao Xia didn't understand Ruan Zhan's silence, and pulled his arm rudely, "Stand closer, I knew that I would always be with you with two umbrellas, even I was stupid." Hey, why are you standing still, are you really losing your temper? β
Release "ββββ"
Post "Hey, what's wrong? What's the matter? β
Publish "No. Ruan Zhan smiled, rolled his throat up and down several times, and finally spoke, "Let's go." β
He stepped forward and wrapped his arms around Xiao Xia's shoulders and brought her to his chest, which made Xiao Xia's body stiffen for a moment, and he felt that the two of them were a little too intimate standing under an umbrella like this. But before she could decide whether this was proper or not, she felt something white swoop down on her in front of her, and fell to the ground a foot in front of her.
She subconsciously screamed, and suddenly found that lying at her feet was a paper crane, with a miserable white body and blood-red eyes.
Publish "It's this thing again.,It's really annoying.,Is it's popular to fold this now?" She kicked, but didn't kick the drenched crane.
The announcement of this uninvited guest made Ruan Zhan's brows frown suddenly, and glanced at the paper crane, and then did nothing, just looked around almost invisibly, making sure that there was no other one nearby, "It's from Japan, it may be a blessing, leave it alone, or go back first." β
He hugged Xiao Xia's shoulders and carefully stepped over the corpse of the paper crane, and a feeling of not being able to grasp it appeared in his mind, "Do you often see this?" β
Release" has been a lot lately. β
Post "Where to Meet?" β
Post "Are you interested in this? "Xiao Xia is a little curious.
Post "No, it's just small talk. Maybe I'll learn how to origami cranes and pray for your peace! β
Post "Don't! Xiao Xia flatly refused, and her reaction made Ruan Zhan feel her uneasiness, "I don't like this, its pair of red eyes makes me feel uncomfortable." If you send me, I'll throw it in your face, don't blame me for not telling you in advance! β
Post "If you don't like it, don't send it, but you may be nervous!" β
The paper crane should have been controlled by witchcraft and flew in the air, because it fell because of the rain! There must be something wrong with this, and he has to think about it.
Posted "Anyway, I hate this, it must be a dead kid out of nowhere catching up with the trend, folding and throwing it around every day." I once saw it on the balcony of my house, by the window of the company, and when I had dinner with Wanli, it seemed that I had a grudge against me, and the ghost always followed me. β
Post "Don't be afraid, it's just a piece of paper." He comforted her softly, hugging her shoulders tighter to himself, savoring this rare warm moment.
Xiao Xia didn't notice that Ruan Zhan behaved differently from the past, and still told about the trouble that the paper crane caused her. When he walked to the door of the store like this, Ruan Zhan suddenly stopped, "I like white shirts." He said to her.
Post "Huh? Xiao Xia didn't hear clearly for a while.
Post "I meanβa plain white shirt is better than a mink coat." Ruan Zhan said it again, and then without waiting for Xiao Xia to say anything more, he walked back to the store and drove to his tracking mission later in the evening, without saying another word.
Post "It's so late, what is he going out for?" Xiao Xia asked Wanli suspiciously.
Thinking about what Ruan Zhan said just now, she felt beautiful in her heart, but then she felt that these two men seemed to have something to hide from her.
Post "Are you married to him?" Wan Li asked rhetorically.
Post "Hey, you're from an alien? If I can't understand Chinese, why can't I say the preamble? β
Post "Since it's not his wife, where do you care where he goes?" Maybe to participate in the magic stick conference, maybe to pick up girls. Go upstairs to sleep, lack of sleep is easy to get wrinkles. β
Is it rare to post "If you don't say it, don't say it?" I just want to ask if it has something to do with the case of the Flower Club, you and I are so gossipy? You men are the best at covering for each other and ignoring you! β
Posted Wanli made a gesture of please.
When Xiao Xia saw that he couldn't ask anything, Wan Li looked like he had something to do, so he simply went upstairs alone.
She lay on the bed and waited quietly, thinking about how to know what Ruan Zhanshen was doing mysteriously. But she didn't come up with a reason until it was close to midnight, and Ruan Zhan didn't come back, Wan Li didn't go upstairs at all, but she herself entered a state of half-asleep and half-awake in a daze.
In the dream, she felt a strange smell and noise, and for a while she didn't realize what it was, but as the feeling became deeper and deeper, she suddenly sat up from the bed.
The sound of beeps and the smell of fireworks are released.
Is the release on fire?!
She hurriedly jumped out of bed, ran barefoot to the staircase, and saw that the first floor had gradually become a sea of fire, and on the edge of the sea of fire, Wan Li sat motionless on a chair, and she didn't know whether she was choked by smoke or asleep.
Released "Thousands of miles, wake up! It's on fire! She screamed and ran downstairs, shaking Wanli violently, but Wanli still didn't wake up, as if she was dead.
Released "Ten Thousand Miles! What happened to you? Wake up! She called again, but he still didn't move.
She glanced around anxiously, at a loss.
I saw that the fire was even more intense at this time, and the invisible gossip made of transparent pipes of unknown material in front of the gate was burned to pieces, and there was a 'pop' sound, which scared Xiao Xia subconsciously hugged her head.
After it was released, as it was completely burned, Xiao Xia suddenly felt that time and space had changed. It's still the same place, but it just doesn't feel right. There was a chill all around her, and there was a chill in the fire. She saw the flames writhing strangely, caressing the surrounding objects like human hands, and everywhere she went, the fire spread even faster. In the midst of the flames beside the door, several black figures that suddenly appeared stood upright and formed a fist pose.
The release is a burned man!
Posting this realization made Xiao Xia squeeze Shin Wanri's hand in fright, even though he was still unconscious. She has been exposed to such cases, and those who are burned to death will become such a constricted posture, which is called a fist-fighting posture in identification.
These charred figures let out a long moan and are maliciously emerging from the flames and moving towards them! It's slow, as if struggling to break through the invisible boundaries, but it's getting closer.
Ruan Zhan hadn't returned the talisman yet, and the bloodwood sword was still upstairs, and she was almost the ration that was placed next to the evil ghost. She wanted to run, but she couldn't leave it behind.
Released "Thousands of miles, wake up." She called him desperately, and finally had to put his hand to her mouth and bite it down hard.
