The window was lowered a crack, and the smell of rain drifted in with the wind.
The visitor wiped his wet face and said, "Miss, don't go in. The circuits in the exhibition hall are aging, and it's raining heavily today. The fire department has checked the exhibition. The exhibition will be rescheduled and can't be seen today. Don't go in, otherwise the cars will be blocked."
Blocked."
There were blasts of horns outside, the sound of everyone being depressed.
Tang Yili thanked him and said, "In this case, I won't go in. Thank you."
She was about to close the window, but the other party hurriedly grabbed it with his hand, "I'm sorry, mainly... I also want to ask you for a favor."
This person actually came to ask for help.
"That's right. We're stuck in the middle, and we don't know when we can get out. My boss has something to do in the afternoon, and it's hard to call a taxi now. Miss, see if you can give him a ride."
As if he was afraid of being rejected, the other party quickly said: "It's not far away, just put him at the nearest subway station."
The other party was very skillful, but it was difficult for Tang Yili to refuse. She was not in a hurry anyway, and Annie was sitting next to her, so she agreed without fear of unruly strangers.
The other party thanked him repeatedly. After a while, he came back holding an umbrella, and there was a tall man under the umbrella.
It was raining and foggy outside, and it was hard to see anything. Tang Yili unlocked the car door, and the man who hitched the ride opened the back seat and got in.
"I'm sorry..." The man's voice was low and mellow, but halfway through his words, both he and Tang Yili were stunned.
Tang Yili never imagined that the hitchhiker was Qin Sheng.
Thousands of thoughts, in the end, she only had time to respond with a smile and nod.
Qin Sheng did the same and nodded, "Sorry to trouble you."
Strictly speaking, Qin Sheng was a client of Fengtang, but when Annie joined the company, Tang Yili and Qin Sheng had no longer interacted with each other, so she did not know Qin Sheng.
Anne just thought that this man had an outstanding temperament. When he pressed the rainwater on the side of his face with his suit pocket square, he exuded a sense of elegance and dignity.
Annie handed the paper over, "Would you like to wipe it?"
"Thanks."
Qin Sheng took it, took a few, and pressed it on his forehead and hair to absorb water. He was wearing a light gray casual suit. Even though he had walked that distance in the rain, his shoulders were already wet.
A dark patch oozed out.
The person who was originally so prosperous now seems to have a sense of relaxation.
Tang Yili looked away and silently started the car.
Seeing the silence in the carriage, Anne deliberately found a topic and said, "Sir, what is your surname?"
"Surname Qin."
"Mr. Qin, are you here to see the exhibition too?"
"Yes, it's a pity that we encountered such weather."
As if she had found a connection between fate, Annie complained: "I think the organizer also has a problem. It was only after heavy rain that I discovered that the fire protection was not good enough. It shows that there is a problem with the location."
"Since the exhibition has been rescheduled, a notice should be posted at the gate, or a text message should be sent to notify us, so that we can save ourselves a wasted trip."
"You're right." Qin Sheng's voice was filled with a smile.
Anne, who was approved of, suddenly felt connected to this stranger. She turned half sideways and said half jokingly.
"Therefore, it is only reasonable that those of us who are running for nothing should be able to see the rescheduled exhibition for free."
Qin Sheng paused for a moment and said gently: "It's not impossible."
Tang Yili held the steering wheel unconsciously, because she could clearly feel the sight behind her, like a dragonfly, landing on her shoulder, making a circle of ripples, and then quickly flying away.
Annie was still in shock and before she could react, she heard Qin Sheng say.
"As the organizer, I'm also very sorry for making you two travel in vain. Otherwise, I will personally refund the money to you two. Do you think this is okay?"
Annie: "Huh?"
She never expected that her complaints would be so accurate that they would be directly heard by the boss of the organizer.
hehe.
Anne giggled, and her face slowly started to heat up. No one was short of a few hundred yuan for the ticket, but this handsome, generous man who was willing to admit his mistakes was a bit rare, and it was hard to get. Anne was willing to sacrifice a few hundred yuan to come.
Buy people's good impression of you.
"That... uh... no need," she waved her hand quickly, "I'm just complaining, just kidding. This art exhibition is super popular, and scalpers can't even buy it at the increased price. I... I don't have the nerve to take advantage of it..."
Qin Sheng's attitude was serious. He had already taken out his mobile phone and wanted to transfer money.
Annie was very happy. She wanted to say that if she didn't want a refund, she could add a WeChat account. She was just about to take action——
"The subway station is here."
Tang Yili suddenly spoke up.
The rain outside was much lighter than before, and it was sparse. Although it didn't stop, it was not difficult to walk into the station without an umbrella.
The black Continental, with double flashes, pulled over in the rain. Qin Sheng looked steadily at the rearview mirror. If Tang Yili raised his head at this time, he would definitely see his expectant eyes.
But Tang Yili kept looking forward. The wipers were sweeping across the car window, making a muffled and unreal noise.
"Thank you." Qin Sheng finally gave up. With a polite smile, he opened the car door and walked out, quickly disappearing into the dark sky.
Tang Yili started the car and got back on the road. Annie leaned back in her chair and said sadly: "I should have asked his name just now."
However, she quickly cheered up: "How could I forget that he is the organizer! Maybe we can meet him next time we go to the exhibition."
The car drove out for a long time, and Tang Yili felt that he was very calm, so he said: "Come home with me for a while, and then we will go back to the company."
Annie said nonchalantly, "Okay."
…
After that encounter, Tang Yili felt as if he had gone through a post-disaster reconstruction. Several hours passed before he could think calmly.
She later searched for that art exhibition on the Internet. It talked about the evolution of modern fashion. There were many private collections of antiques in it, which were rare to see, so many colleagues went to watch it.
There were three national touring exhibitions in total, and Beishi was the last stop. Due to heavy rain, it was postponed until a week later.
Logically, Tang Yili should also go and have a look and learn from his colleagues, but Tang Yili didn't do anything and gave up his curiosity.
The underlying reason was that she was afraid of meeting Qin Sheng.
This kind of fear even reaches the point of fear.
Nearly two years later, she still can't forget the love triangle. Because of her vacillation, Xun Lang was disgusted and Qin Sheng was disappointed. In the end, all three parties suffered losses and everyone was in pain.
Tang Yili really didn't want to experience it again, so he could only take off the mask of politeness and give Qin Sheng the coldest back.
But Qin Sheng was always as gentle as jade to Tang Yili.
On the way home from get off work, Tang Yili drove home and received a transfer of 1,280 yuan from Qin Sheng on WeChat.
It's the price of two tickets, and he does what he says.
