The heavy rain poured down, and the deafening thunder sounded from time to time. It was obvious that this heavy rain would not stop in a short while.
The streets and alleys of Huanan City are all empty. There are not many people walking on the streets at all. There is only a man with disheveled hair and untidy clothes walking on the road in the rain. The rain and fog are too heavy and the man's face cannot be seen clearly.
, but looking at his back, he looks like a living beggar.
Ling Jie walked alone in the rain. In the autumn, the raindrops brought a bit of chill, and kept hitting his body, sending waves of coldness. "I have been in seclusion in the forest for a month, and this time I seem to have lost my sight when I came out."
Things have improved a lot. It’s amazing that you can clearly see things dozens of meters away in such heavy fog. Who is Mengyao?"
Ling Jie saw a mobile business store not far away. The billboard outside the door also said the words "Gonghua Supermarket". Ling Jie slowly leaned over. After staying in the forest for a month, his cell phone was no longer available.
I knew which wild wolf had taken me away, but luckily I remembered Bingtong’s phone number in my mind. Now that I’m back in Huanan City, I must give Bingtong a call.
"Hey, hey, you can't go in. This is not a place for beggars to take shelter from the rain. You can't go in." When the salesperson at the door saw Ling Jie looking like a beggar, he thought he was a beggar and refused to let him in. Ling Jie felt a rush in his heart.
It’s funny, “Am I so down and out?”
Ling Jie straightened his clothes and put on a smile, "I said beautiful lady, you can see clearly, I am not a beggar, I am a student of South China University, I want to go inside and make a phone call."
The waiter was quite pretty, and in Ling Jie's eyes, she could be considered a beauty. When Ling Jie said this, a big question mark appeared on his face, obviously he didn't believe what Ling Jie said, "You are really
A student from South China University?"
Ling Jie hurriedly said, "Yes, yes, I was trafficked to Hunan by human traffickers. I finally escaped this time. I will call my family now and ask them to pick me up..."
Ling Jie was really speechless. He had to come with such a pitiful suit. Unexpectedly, it worked. The salesperson looked Ling Jie up and down, nodded slightly to show that she believed you first, and then she turned her head and glanced at the counter inside.
A man with a big belly said, "That man is the boss here. He won't pity you. Even if I believe you, it's useless."
Ling Jie followed her gaze and saw a wretched man. He couldn't help but said, "Beautiful lady, can't I lend you your mobile phone to make a call?"
The salesperson was stunned for a moment, and finally said "Ah". Ling Jie thought that his statement had frightened him, so he hurriedly said, "My family is in Huanan City. I don't want to make long distance calls. It's not expensive."
When the salesperson said this to him, his face suddenly turned red, "I'm not worried about this, I'm saying, are you really not a beggar, but a student at South China University?"
I fainted! Ling Jie slapped his head and looked very speechless. This salesman had obviously just started his career. He probably just graduated from some university and came out to work. But how can he make him believe in himself? Ling Jie suddenly thought of
, "By the way, do you know Guo Youxin, the campus beauty of South China University?"
The salesperson's face showed a bit of contempt and said, "I know, so what? I won't tell you who she is."
Ling Jie's mouth opened wide. Oh my God, how did this guy know what I was going to say next? "How did you know?"
"Huh." The salesperson's face immediately lost its expression, "Nowadays, many liars say that they are familiar with certain celebrities. You can't do anything else except this. I have seen too many liars like you.
Go, go, stay there, don't stand at the door and hinder our business."
Just like that, before Ling Jie could defend himself, he was pushed to the door by the salesperson. It was raining and freezing there, and Ling Jie couldn't do anything about it. Apart from this Gonghua Supermarket, there was no other one around here.
After thinking about it, he couldn't bear to leave, "Meng Yao, you won't put some money in your baggage when you leave. How can you let people live?"
Ling Jie thought about his training life in the past month and couldn't help but sigh with emotion. After thinking about it, he actually fell asleep leaning against the rain. Come to think of it, in the past month, the total time he slept was only a few dozen hours.
He has to train for at least twenty hours every day. Ling Jie can persist in such high-intensity training. He finds it incredible. Now that he has left such a life, he is really reluctant to leave it. He is tired, really tired.
, leaning against the door of the mobile business hall, letting the rain hit him, he fell asleep with a splash. Such cold rain could not disturb his sleep.
When the salesperson saw Ling Jie not leaving, he couldn't help but frowned, thinking that Ling Jie was a scumbag liar. He yelled several times and got no response, so he had to forget it. The fat man in the sales hall suddenly received a call, probably from
A woman invited him to do something, got up and left. Before leaving, she gave the beautiful salesperson a few words and touched her hand before leaving. This made the salesperson very unhappy.
In this way, she was the only one left in the entire business hall. She sat behind the counter and played on the computer. She didn't think anything of it. Time passed very quickly. From morning to night, there were not many people there all day long.
After visiting this place, when he got off work at eight o'clock in the evening, Zhou Yang was about to close the door and leave, when he suddenly found Ling Jie still leaning against the door, snoring evenly.
Zhou Yang walked over and moved him, and was shocked. She felt that Ling Jie's body was as cold as ice, and his skin was simply ice...
"Could he be dead?" Zhou Yang was also confused. It was so cold, but his snoring was very even, as if something had happened but not as if something had happened. This confused her, and finally made up his mind to shake Ling Jie.
Only then did he wake up.
Through the umbrella, Zhou Yang could feel the chill. How much cold should Ling Jie endure after sleeping in the rain all day?
Ling Jie woke up leisurely and took a look at the sky. It was not good. One day had passed and he still hadn't found Bingtong. He didn't even have a place to sleep at night. This was going to be difficult.
Zhou Yang looked at him in shock, "You've been sleeping here all day, aren't you cold?" When she said this, she was trembling slightly.
Ling Jie recovered from his sleep. It was windy and rainy here, and it was really cold. He saw the salesperson standing in the rain holding a small umbrella. He was wearing a white shirt, a blue professional skirt, slender white thighs, and black high heels.
, she is completely professionally dressed, her face is very delicate and beautiful, with a bit of cynicism, a bit of seriousness, and a bit of smile. The whole person makes me feel very comfortable, I will take it to Huanan City for a big show.
There was nothing wrong with the school beauty, but Ling Jie just couldn't figure out how such a beautiful woman could work as a small salesperson in a place like this?
Zhou Yang found that Ling Jie was stunned when he looked at him, and felt unhappy again, "If you look at me again, I will leave immediately. I hope you won't freeze to death here."
Ling Jie came back to his senses and realized that he had indeed lost his composure. He had lost his composure. Damn it, why are people nowadays more and more prone to losing their composure?
Humph, why don't you just look better? What's the big deal?" Ling Jie stood up, his whole body was soaked, and he turned around to leave without caring much.
Zhou Yang shivered, and after standing in the rain for less than a few minutes, he shivered with cold. Ling Jie slept in the rain for a whole day, and just thinking about it, he knew how good his body must be!
Zhou Yang took out his cell phone and handed it to Ling Jie, "Make a call and ask your family to take you back. Don't die here. I'm afraid I'll be in trouble when the time comes to hold you accountable."
Ling Jie took a look at the mobile phone. It was a blue flip-top Bubu Gao. It had a particularly luxurious and exquisite appearance. It was also very classy overall. "Then you're welcome."
Ling Jie took the phone and dialed a number. It seemed to be Bingtong's phone. After a while, it suddenly rang, "Your phone is in arrears, please top up in time..."
"It's shut down..." The two people were shocked at the same time, and then they both looked at each other in astonishment, with disbelief in their eyes.
Zhou Yang said, "Why did it shut down so quickly? I was able to fight fine, but once I got it into your hands, I couldn't..."
Ling Jie said, "You know clearly that the phone is turned off but you still give it to me. Why are you pretending to be a good person? People like this are the most disgusting these days..."
"You... I was kind-hearted and I gave it to you because I felt sorry for you. How could you slander me like this? Why are you so wicked and don't even know how to be grateful..." Zhou Yang was angry.
Ling Jie estimated that this girl was really ignorant, and she didn't look like she was pretending. He just said, "Then what do you think I need to do to be at least grateful?"
Zhou Yang's mood improved a lot, and the poor beggar finally gave in, "You should at least say thank you and show respect to me."
"Oh -" Ling Jie smiled, "Haha... Thank you, beautiful lady, for lending me your mobile phone to make calls. Although this mobile phone is down, I still thank you. That's all right."
Zhou Yang was originally in a good mood. He was fine after hearing the first half of the sentence, but when he stopped at the second half, he felt unhappy, "You...Ignore you, you can figure it out yourself."
Zhou Yang said he was going to leave, turned around and left. Ling Jie suddenly thought of something and stepped forward to block the way, "Where are you going?"
Zhou Yang glanced at Ling Jie warily, and then said, "Go home, didn't you see that it's already eight o'clock in the evening? Of course you have to go home after get off work, idiot..."
Ling Jie stopped dwelling on the words and asked, "I mean, where is your home? Is it close to Huanan City?"
Zhou Yang suddenly laughed. Ling Jie didn't know why she laughed. Anyway, she started laughing after hearing what Ling Jie said. Ling Jie said, "Why are you laughing? I have something to ask you."
Zhou Yang laughed for a while and then reluctantly pursed his lips, "I really can't bear to lie to you again. I'm actually a student at South China University, a sophomore in the Department of Foreign Languages."
Ling Jie was stunned for a moment, then said excitedly, "Are you going back to school now?"
Zhou Yang said calmly, "Yeah, if you don't go back to school, I'll stay in the dormitory. You're stupid." While speaking, Zhou Yang was no longer as wary of Ling Jie as he was at first. She could tell.
How can there be such beggars in the world? They are probably abducted by human traffickers...
Ling Jie suddenly clenched his fists and said even more excitedly, "Then can you take me with you? Take me back with you." Ling Jie thought this way. If he went to South China University to find Guo Youxin, he could always borrow her phone number.
Well, in this big world, if you are not well-dressed, no one will lend you a phone wherever you go.
Suddenly, Zhou Yang's pupils suddenly dilated n times, "What did you say? You want me to take you back with you?"
Ling Jie was so excited, as if a drowning man was grabbing a life-saving straw. He obviously didn't think too much, "Yeah, what's wrong?"
Zhou Yang said contemptuously, "I am a good student, how could I bring a man back? Besides, even if I wanted to bring a man, I wouldn't bring you like this, and you wouldn't take a look at yourself by soaking in urine..."
Ling Jie said, "That's not what I meant. I just want you to take me to South China University..."
Before Ling Jie finished speaking, Zhou Yang interrupted, "Why are you going to Huanan City University? You want to deceive the junior students there. Let me tell you..."
Ling Jie said, "No, I just want to make a phone call. Your phone is down and I can't make calls. I'm very familiar with Guo Youxin from South China University. You take me to her and I'll borrow her phone to make calls. This call is important to me.
It’s important to say.”
Zhou Yang suddenly saw the look in Ling Jie's eyes. It definitely didn't look like that of a beggar. It was a look of calmness and perseverance. She said no more, but took out three one-dollar coins from her pocket, "I only have three."
A coin, from here to Huanan City, two people need four coins. I don’t have any money.”
Ling Jie thought for a while and said, "Let's do this. Do you have any paper with you? You can simply draw a few roads and tell me how to get to South China City. I will just walk there myself." Ling Jie had a look on his face.
Very relaxed smile. It was windy and rainy here, and many stores on both sides of the street were closed. There were not many people and few cars on the road, so it was not convenient to ask for directions.
Zhou Yang's eyes suddenly rolled. Looking at Ling Jie, she seemed to be reminded of her own life experience. In such a depraved place like the university, she didn't see a resolute person, and she couldn't find anyone except herself.
A person worth talking to, but Ling Jie seems to be different from those people. It takes two hours by car from here to Huanan City. If you walk, it will probably take half a day. What a difficult journey it must be!
Zhou Yang seemed to be trying to hide his expression, and turned around and said, "Let's go, I'll take you back to Huanan City University." She held an umbrella, and Ling Jie walked beside her. The umbrella was very small, not enough to cover the bodies of the two of them.
Most of Ling Jie's body was covered in the rain. Zhou Yang was 1.7 meters tall, still a little shorter than Ling Jie. The two of them were just walking in the rain.
It took a while before Zhou Yang spoke, "Are you sure you know Guo Youxin?"
Ling Jie said, "By the way, we met seven or eight months ago, when she just came to Huanan City University."
Zhou Yang didn't speak anymore. Ling Jie was soaked and couldn't get too close. The two of them just walked side by side. Ling Jie suddenly said, "You are really a student of South China University, and you are also a foreign language speaker."
Department?"
Zhou Yang turned around and glared at him, "..."
