At half past ten, the sky outside the classroom gradually became gloomy, and soon it started to rain.
The east wind carried water droplets and hit the glass, making a dense ticking sound.
The rain came quickly, making the students in the class anxious. The rain came unexpectedly.
"Jiang Ning, did you bring an umbrella?" Geng Lu turned around to talk before class started.
"Bring it." Jiang Ning watched the sky last night and determined that it would rain today, so he specially brought a black umbrella.
In fact, he doesn't need to. He only needs to use the 'Rain Avoidance Technique' to spread his spiritual power around his body, creating a raincoat-like effect to prevent rain from getting his clothes wet.
He brought an umbrella just for Xue Yuantong to use.
Before going out, Xue Yuantong said it would never rain today because she read the weather forecast on her phone and insisted not to take an umbrella.
Geng Lu was a little disappointed when she heard that Jiang Ning brought an umbrella. If he didn't bring an umbrella, then she could use one with him.
"Are you going back for lunch?" she asked.
"I won't go back. It's raining a lot outside." Jiang Ning said. The students in the class were still praying for the rain to stop. However, from his perspective, the rain might not stop until the evening.
Geng Lu said: "Okay." She also didn't want to go home for dinner.
Until school ended at noon, the rain still didn't stop.
The students walked out of the class, crowded in the corridor, and looked at the falling rain outside.
There are also some students standing in the corridor of Class 1 next to the left of Class 8, but more Class 1 students are reading in the classroom.
On the right side of Class 8, Grade 1, is the stairwell. Students come down from the stairs and gather in the corridor. The number of people gradually increases. The sounds of chatter and complaints can be heard, and an anxious atmosphere fills the air.
The autumn rain was so sudden that there were only a few students carrying umbrellas.
Xue Yuantong came to the back row. She had a high ponytail today and was full of energy.
"Jiang Ning, I won't go home at noon."
"I won't go home either. Let's wait for the rain to lighten up and go out to eat."
"Okay, bring me one." Xue Yuantong didn't want to go out.
Jiang Ning said: "No, you go with me."
"Okay." Xue Yuantong ran back to her seat.
Jiang Ning discovered that Xue Yuantong was very lazy during school and would lie down as much as possible. Jiang Ning always bought dinner for her.
Jiang Ning recalled the past, and it seemed that in his previous life, Xue Yuantong was like this, lying on the desk all day long and not interacting with others.
She seems to have few friends and only lives in her own world.
I remember one winter, after school in the afternoon, Jiang Ning came back from buying dinner for Shen Qing'e and saw Xue Yuantong eating bread and drinking water from the water dispenser.
Why do you remember that one time?
Because Shen Qing'e wanted to eat squid burrito that day, Jiang Ning bought her a high-end version of the burrito. It cost thirteen yuan, and only one yuan was left for dinner, so he bought the same type of bread as Xue Yuantong.
The bread was very dry, so he took away the boiling water that had just been boiled. Xue Yuantong took the cold water to drink before the next wave of boiling water was ready.
The winter in Hui Province is very cold, with temperatures reaching minus seven or eight degrees Celsius.
At that time, Jiang Ning lamented that Xue Yuantong was really a weirdo.
…
The rain is still falling.
It has been ten minutes, and many people are impatient to wait.
From time to time, you can see some students running into the heavy rain alone, some carrying schoolbags on their heads and running very fast, while others are strolling leisurely in the rain, revealing a cool and embarrassed back.
Wang Longlong stood in the corridor facing the rain curtain, with his hands behind his back. His slightly fat body showed an aloofness, which was completely different from the anxious classmates around him.
He chanted lightly: "Good rain knows the season, and spring will happen."
The sudden sound echoed through the crowd, attracting people's attention.
Bai Yuxia quietly took a few steps away. She felt that the person next to her was not a fool.
Ma Shicheng applauded cooperatively:
"Good poems, good poems, Brother Long is a great talent!"
A modest smile appeared on Wang Longlong's face.
Geng Lu said: "What about the back? Can you carry it?"
Wang Longlong was immediately embarrassed. This was something he suddenly remembered. How could he remember what was behind it?
Geng Lu said:
"It's autumn, do you still want the spring rain?"
After another seven or eight minutes, the rain finally subsided, and students gradually began to walk outside.
Jiang Ning held the umbrella, walked to Xue Yuantong, and knocked on her table:
"Get up and go eat."
"If you can't afford it, bring me one~"
Jiang Ning held her by the collar and gently lifted Xue Yuantong away from the desk.
"If you eat so much and don't exercise, you will gain weight." He warned patiently.
Xue Yuantong straightened his collar and complained:
"As verbose as my mother."
However, she said this and followed Jiang Ning out of the classroom.
Jiang Ning held up an umbrella and Xue Yuantong hid under it.
The umbrella is quite big and can cover two people without any problem.
When we walked to the school gate, the rain eased a lot, but Jiang Ning still held an umbrella.
Xue Yuantong looked back and saw a dense crowd behind him. The students rushed out in a wave.
There are not many food stalls on the street in front of the school at this time. It rained too much before, so many stall owners did not come.
Some food stalls have rainproof racks set up.
"Jiang Ning, what should we have for lunch?"
"I know a restaurant that tastes pretty good," Jiang Ning said. The owner of that restaurant was good at cooking and it was clean and tidy.
"Follow me," he said.
The street was not too crowded, and Xue Yuantong followed Jiang Ning closely, as if seeking a sense of security.
Whenever she goes to a crowded place, she always feels alienated from the world and instinctively dislikes crowded places.
After walking about a hundred meters, there were more people on the street. There was a small intersection in front of it, with small alleys connecting it on both sides.
A big wolfdog sprang out of the alley, followed by a fat middle-aged man in a vest.
Bald forehead, beer belly, fake gold chain, fake gold watch.
Jiang Ning's eyesight saw him clearly.
The fat man just walked on the street regardless of the big wolf dog running rampant in front of him.
Jiang Ning clearly noticed that Xue Yuantong's body next to him tensed up, and he felt a trembling feeling.
He looked towards Xue Yuantong and found that her eyes were fixed on the big wolf dog.
'She's afraid of dogs?'
That's right, that dog was a big wolfdog, so tall and majestic that most adults would probably be frightened when they saw it.
The ferocity of the fat man's big wolfdog still remained. He stretched out his nose and swaggered down the street. When he met some students, he sniffed them.
The students were frightened and ran away.
Some timid girls did not dare to walk on the street at all, but walked close to the shops on both sides.
The fat man didn't care, he seemed to have a smile on his face and he was proud of it.
The big wolf dog wandered around and nuzzled at the snack stalls. Some students were standing waiting for the stall owner to make snacks, but the dog came up to them, opened its mouth, exposed its ferocious teeth, and bit the students' trouser legs.
The student was so frightened that he froze and did not dare to resist at all. He stared at the big wolf dog and let it bite, for fear of irritating it.
Some passers-by looked at the fat man with disgust.
The fat man paid no attention to him and walked as if nothing else was happening, letting the big wolf dog bite him.
Xue Yuantong quickened his pace, preparing to walk through this section of the road quickly.
However, as a dog, the more afraid you are, the more it will come closer, as if it can smell human fear.
The big wolf dog abandoned the students at the food stall and ran towards Xue Yuantong.
Judging from the speed at which it was running, it seemed as if it was really about to pounce.
Xue Yuantong's heart trembled and he couldn't help but want to hide away.
