Chapter 93: Raging Storm
Outside, the sky was gray, then a light rain began to fall, and in the afternoon, suddenly the wind blew fiercely, the clouds were thick, and the rain poured down, and the sky was full of its emotions.
Li Kexia looked at the sky, it was dark and dreary, and it felt breathless.
"Yiyi, a few of you should get off work early, the weather is bad, no one will come to sit idle today."
"Wow, that's great, Sister Xia."
"Then I'll ask my boyfriend to pick me up."
"Me too, go home and watch a movie under the covers."
A few girls looked excited, although the weather was bad and they couldn't go anywhere to play, but they were always excited to get off work early.
An hour later, several girls left one after another, and Li Kexia was the only one left in the store.
Melodious music was playing in the store, and Li Kexia sat on the second floor near the floor-to-ceiling windows, looking out the window.
The torrential rain smashed on the surface of the river, stirring up bursts of water, and the mountains in the distance had been blocked by the water curtain, and it was hazy and difficult to see, and the cargo ships on the river had stopped sailing and leaned against the shore. At this moment, except for the sound of the wind and the rain, it seems that everything is still.
Li Kexia's driving skills are not good, and she is ready to wait for the rain to be lighter before going back.
Li Kexia made a pot of rose and red date tea by himself, put it on the stove and added a small fire to warm it, and then took a book, leaned against the window, listened to the rain and read.
Suddenly, a bolt of lightning pierced the entire sky, followed by a thunderous explosion that was deafening, as if it were about to shatter the entire universe.
Li Kexia raised his eyes, took out his mobile phone, took a few photos, and sent them to the circle of friends, with the text: "Looking forward to the rainbow after the lightning and thunder."
Murong Bo sat in front of the floor-to-ceiling window of his office, watching the storm and lightning outside, spitting white smoke rings.
He took out his mobile phone, clicked on WeChat, and saw Li Kexia's circle of friends.
Murong Bo clicked on Li Kexia's photo, and he frowned. In her mind, she had already imagined that Li Kexia was drinking tea and reading books, and suddenly lightning and thunder made her tremble.
Murong Bo sent a message to Li Kexia: "The weather is bad, don't you close the door to rest?" ”
After Li Kexia saw Murong Bo's information, he was slightly surprised.
Although he often comes to the tea room to sit idly, she and he rarely chat on WeChat, except for the transfer information, which is one of the few "thank you" sentences.
Murong Bo suddenly asked, Li Kexia was surprised, but he quickly replied to his message.
"A few girls in the store have already left work early, so I'll wait for the rain to light up before going back."
"Oh." Murong Bo didn't continue to speak, closed his phone, took his suit and left the office.
Li Kexia felt that Murong Bo was a little inexplicable, he didn't speak again, Li Kexia put his phone aside and continued to read.
"Go to the riverside inn."
"Okay, Mr. Murong."
In the rainstorm, a black Maybach swept the windshield to the maximum and slowly drove towards Riverside Boulevard.
About a kilometer away from the riverside inn, the water on the road was too deep, and the traffic police set up roadblocks to prevent vehicles from passing.
"Mr. Murong, the water is too deep to pass, and the traffic police have set up roadblocks."
Murong Bo looked at the riverside inn in the distance and said, "You turn around and go back, don't worry about me." ”
"Mr. Murong, pay attention to safety."
"Got it."
Murong Bo found a pair of shorts and a T-shirt in the back seat of the car.
"Give two bags, are there raincoats in the car?"
The driver handed Murong Bo two plastic bags: "Mr. Murong, there is no raincoat." ”
"If not, forget it."
Murong Bo put his shorts and T-shirt in the bag, took off his socks and shoes, put them in another bag, then pulled the trouser hem to his knees, took the bag and pushed the car door, then opened the umbrella and got out of the car.
The driver watched Murong Bo holding an umbrella, walking with difficulty in the torrential rain, the wind blew the umbrella crookedly, and it couldn't hold it at all, and the rain fell on Murong Bo obliquely.
He didn't go far, Murong Bo's clothes were already soaked, he simply threw away his umbrella and walked quickly to the riverside inn.
Murong Bo looked like he had just climbed up from the river, his whole body was wet from his hair to his toes.
He crossed the garden of the riverside inn to the eaves, combed his hair back with his hands, shook the rain off his body, tried not to look so embarrassed, and pushed the door and walked in.
Li Kexia heard the sound of the door opening, who could it be? Braving a storm for tea? Or maybe someone who happened to pass by here came in to take shelter from the rain.
Li Kexia put down the book, stood up, and walked down the wooden staircase.
When she saw the back of a tall man, wet all over, closing the door, Li Kexia froze instantly, her hands tightly grasped the handrail of the wooden staircase, and her heart rose to her throat with nervousness.
"Who?" Li Kexia's voice trembled slightly.
Outside, there was a raging storm, lightning and thunder, and if this strange man wanted to do something wrong to her, even if she shouted in her throat, no one would be able to hear her.
Li Kexia was so scared that she held her breath and her heart was pounding.
Murong Bo closed the door, turned around and said softly, "It's me, don't be afraid!" ”
Li Kexia saw that it was Murong Bo, and then he breathed a sigh of relief.
"Abo, Heavy Rain, what are you doing here?" Li Kexia quickly ran down the stairs and came to Murong Bo.
"Abo, you won't fall into the river, will you?"
Murong Bo squeezed out a wry smile, at this moment, he was really embarrassed.
He was drenched, mixed with mud and rain, and apart from the beggars on the street, except for the custom-made suit on his body.
"Li Kexia, borrow the bathroom in your store to use it." Murong Bo wanted to make himself less embarrassed as soon as possible, and after speaking, he went into the bathroom.
"There's no place to shower here, you have to flush at the tap." Li Kexia shouted loudly.
"Got it." There was the sound of rushing water in the bathroom.
Li Kexia stood in the kitchen, quickly shaving ginger with a knife, and she made a pot of ginger tea for Murong Bo to ward off the cold.
After taking a shower with cold water, Murong Bo felt much more comfortable, he wiped it clean with a tissue, and looked at the shorts and T-shirt in the bag and was stunned.
What should I do without underwear?
Murong Bo sent a message to the bodyguard: "After the rain stops, help me send a complete set of clothes to the riverside inn." ”
"Roger, Mr. Murong."
Murong Bo tried to wash and wring out his underwear, but it was still wet. He struggled inwardly, Murong Bo stiffened his head, vacuumed, he put his shorts and T-shirt on his body, and strode out of the bathroom.
"Abo, come up to the second floor." Li Kexia shouted loudly at Murong Bo on the second floor.
"Okay."
Murong Bo walked up to the second floor and saw a pot of ginger tea warmed on the shelf, and he suddenly felt warm in his heart.
Li Kexia poured Murong Bo a cup of ginger tea. "Drink it quickly, warm up, don't catch a cold."
"Thank you."
Murong Bo drank a large cup, and his body really warmed up a lot.
Holding the teacup, the corners of Murong Bo's mouth were slightly hooked, in this far-away world, the woman he loved also cared about him, and he felt very lucky.
