Chapter 47: The Past of the Typhoon
"Have you been swept away by a typhoon?" Cheng Yi asked with a smile.
"I'm here to feel the coolness outside, and that's just the case with this typhoon." Guo Xiao came to Du Xinlai because of Cheng Yi's typhoon, and caused him to have an oolong incident, and at this moment he slapped his swollen face and became fat.
"You're done?" Du Xinlai didn't like to beat around the bush, so he asked him straight to the point.
"Well, hurry up and eat, I'm going back after eating."
"Then you may have to go back first, I'll ask Xinlai for a favor, and I'll send her back when I'm done." Without waiting for Du Xinlai to answer, Cheng Yi preemptively said to Guo Xiao.
"You're going to stay?" Guo Xiao asked Du Xinlai unconvinced.
"My ex-boss wants to see me! I still have some things to deal with, and the typhoon may make landfall in Jiangcheng tonight. Du Xinlai said to Guo Xiao.
She wanted to say that it is not safe for you to leave now, but she didn't say the rest of the sentence.
Guo Xiao didn't speak after listening, scanned the QR code on the table again, added a few dishes, and then bought the order of the table by the way.
After doing all this, he took a few bites and stood up and said to Du Xinlai, "Eat slowly!" ”
When he left, Du Xinlai found that she had taken the ones she loved most in college.
"He bought the order, and he didn't eat a few bites, which is a bit of a waste." Although Cheng Yi has not been short of money since he was a child, he has also exercised his ability to support himself abroad for many years, and he does not like to waste.
Du Xinlai called the waiter and asked the waiter to pack it and send it to Guo Xiao's room.
Unexpectedly, the waiter came over and said that Guo Xiao had already moved out of the room, and he also helped her pay for the room for two days.
"Do you still want to live here? Actually, I have an apartment by the river that is still empty, if you don't want to live here, you can live with me, close to the company and my aunt's house. When facing Du Xinlai, Cheng Yi only dared to make suggestions.
"No need, just live here, I'll go see Mr. Zhou now, and then I'll go back to Cloud City tomorrow." Du Xinlai looked at the trees outside the window and kept shaking, his brows furrowed slightly, Guo Xiao insisted on rushing back this day, there would be no problems on the highway.
It didn't take long for Du Xinlai to sit in Cheng Yi's car and drive to another district.
Trees on both sides of the road kept waving branches that had nowhere to put them, and the radio in the car reminded people that the subway on the ground had been suspended, and advised citizens to try not to travel, and to choose a good means of transportation if they had to travel.
The scenery outside the window is getting farther and farther away, this road used to be the road she used to take in college, when she was doing an internship in Dream Weaving, leaving early and returning late every day, but most of the time she took the bus.
There are fewer and fewer cars around, but some bus stops have gathered a lot of people, because the subway is suspended, but the company has no holiday, many people have to wait for the bus, and it is difficult to fight at this time, everyone is like fleeing, hoping to get home quickly before the typhoon.
Du Xinlai remembered that she had a typhoon day one year, and she had to go to work, but there was still a way from the school to the bus station, and it was just ten minutes on the road when it suddenly rained.
Although she was carrying an umbrella, because of the slow drainage of water in the old city, the water on the ground disappeared to her calves in an instant due to the heavy rain, soaking her newly bought yellow high-heeled leather shoes.
If this were the case now, she would definitely go back and change into dry shoes and take a taxi to the company.
But at that time, she was just a poor student with a light talk, and she was able to enter the weaving dream internship, which had made many classmates envious, and when the bus came, she squeezed in without hesitation.
She spent the day in her wet shoes until the end of the day, when the surface of her shoes finally dried.
She remembered that when she got off work that day, she met Mr. Zhou at the elevator entrance, she looked at her leather shoes, and praised her leather shoes for looking good and clean.
That was the first time she had officially chatted with her boss outside of work.
She was very happy and didn't mention that her shoes were soaked in water at all.
Later, she graduated and rented a house in the suburbs, and once it was also a typhoon day, and the subway was driven down halfway through, saying that the subway could not go forward, because the previous station was going out of the ground, and the wind outside was too strong, and the subway would be very dangerous.
She remembered that when she walked out of that station, in addition to the wind and the torrential rain, there were patches of people on the ground, like the density in a zombie movie, the platform was completely uncrowded, and when a bus came, everyone rushed up, as if it was Noah's Ark fleeing from the disaster.
Du Xinlai thought that she was a person who could rush forward, but at this time, she was still pushed back by the crowd.
After waiting for five or six trips for her to squeeze in, the bus was obviously overweight, and she was so crowded that she didn't even have a place to help, but fortunately the car was crowded enough, and the car drove slowly, so she didn't fall down.
Thinking of those past events, Du Xinlai suddenly felt that his current life was quite happy, at least he was sent by car, but Guo Xiao was safe for her to drive back to Cloud City alone?
She wanted to call him, but she was afraid of affecting him to drive.
Du Xinlai picked up his mobile phone and hesitated to call, but at this time he received a WeChat message.
"Sister Xinlai, why haven't you come back yet?"
