Chapter 22: The Tea Is Cold

After all, Shu Nuan was not a good gambler, and he failed miserably from the beginning.

Relatives were perfunctory and neighbors were evasive. In just one day, Shu Nuan finally understood what it means to have tea cool down when people leave, and hozens to scatter when trees fall. Seeing her one by one was like seeing the god of plague. They either hid or refused to open the door.

.

Shu Nuan dragged her vain body out of the government compound. The sky was very dark, and the dark clouds were piled up one after another, as thick as splashed ink. There was too much water vapor in the air, like rising mist.

Generally, it makes the lights on the roadside more and more dim.

She walked along the sidewalk, her feet still a little lame, and her steps were very slow. There was obviously a lot of traffic on the road, but what she heard were those heart-wrenching words.

"My good niece, it's not that I won't help, it's just that with my status, I can't speak at all!"

"I know it's hard for you, don't worry, I will ask. Go back quickly, don't stay here, it will look bad to others."

"I beg you, please leave quickly. My Lao Wang has only been in office for a few days. If you don't do your father's work, the country will not be successful, and it will also implicate my Lao Wang!"

"Why are you so ignorant? You even told me that Lao Li is not at home, yet you still stay here and refuse to leave? If I didn't see you as pitiful, believe it or not, I would report you right now and warn you of disturbing the people!"

"Unjustly accused? Then my Lao Ji didn't do anything, so why don't you accuse him unjustly? Thieves never say they are lazy!"



As Shu Nuan walked, she suddenly smiled. It turned out that the government compound was not unchanged, but she didn't notice it.

Her complexion was fair, and the two blushes on her cheeks made her skin even more crystal clear, but the smile at the corner of her mouth turned her stunning beauty into a sad mockery.

She didn't know how long she had been walking, but Shu Nuan suddenly felt a coldness on her face. She was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously reached out to touch it. There were traces of water on her fingers. She raised her head, and more rain fell and hit her face.

superior.

Shu Nuan didn't react at all. She stood by the sidewalk, quietly watching the cars and pedestrians passing through the rain. Either you pushed me or I bumped into you. It was bustling with people, but they all went their own way without interfering with each other.

When I went out, it was just a patter of rain. In less than a quarter of an hour, the raindrops turned into big raindrops, pitter-patter on the car body. As soon as the wiper wiped it, it was covered with rainwater again. There was nothing on the road.

There were pedestrians, but the road was filled with water. Even with the lights on, the visibility was only one to two hundred meters.

The phone rang and Xiao Han answered.

Du Yunshi's voice came over, "Where are you?"

"On the way."

"It's raining heavily outside, be careful."

Xiao Han hummed lightly and cut off the call. However, when the car turned right, he inadvertently caught a glimpse of a figure in the corner of his eye. He stepped on the brake, and the car stopped with a sharp squeak.

She hugged her knees and lived on the stone fence of the green belt. Her hair and clothes were completely soaked, and the rain fell down her face. Her face had no other color except white. She didn't know what her eyes were looking at.

Empty and nothing, it was still the beige windbreaker from yesterday, with the hem hanging down, almost to the ground, and a few drops of water falling from time to time.

Xiao Han pushed open the car door, got out, and walked up to her.

"Miss Shu."

Shu Nuan didn't seem to hear his words and didn't react at all.
