The sky in Hongcheng changes as expected.
It was clear that the sun was shining brightly before, but suddenly it started to rain heavily.
Dark clouds were gathering, lightning split the dark sky, and there were several thunders.
The pedestrians were obviously disturbed by the heavy rain, and many pedestrians carrying large and small bags hurriedly ran back to the corridor.
They were as embarrassed as if a basin of water had been poured on them.
"It's raining."
Zhou Yan pulled Tang Tang, held up the big black umbrella, and finally entered the small foreign-style building despite the rain. Only then did Zhou Yan have time to curse.
The rain fell very suddenly and with great momentum, and the rain in Hongcheng was always accompanied by the evil wind. This time was no exception. The rain that originally fell straight down was blown by the evil wind and moved towards the surrounding area like a rolled-up bead curtain. Yan and Tangtang came over.
Therefore, even if they were standing under the red tent, Zhou Yan and Tang Tang would inevitably be splashed by the rain just like those pedestrians.
If it hadn't been for the umbrella Tang Tang had brought when he took Zhou Yan's schoolbag, he would have become two drowned rats under the heavy rain.
Zhou Yan took out his Nokia, looked at it with some rainwater on it, wiped the Nokia on his shorts, and then Zhou Yan pressed the button on it.
The phone screen lit up, and Zhou Yan breathed a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, it was not damaged by the rain.
"Are you okay?"
Zhou Yan looked at Tang Tang and found that her skirt had become wet and was still dripping with water.
The knee-length socks and white sneakers were also stained with dirt from running in the rain.
Tang Tang's hair was long, and when it got wet from the rain, it stuck to her shoulders.
There is a messy beauty to it.
"Well, my hair is washed in vain." Tang Tang pouted and his beautiful eyebrows wrinkled slightly.
"Don't worry about your hair. Your clothes are all wet. If you keep going like this, you'll catch a cold."
Zhou Yan said helplessly.
"ah."
Tang Tang subconsciously covered his clothes.
"Don't worry, nothing was leaked. Your protective measures are in place."
Zhou Yan pouted. He wanted to see something, but Tang Tang's white dress was not transparent. Even if it was wet by the rain, nothing could be seen. He was a little disappointed.
"Stone, what are you talking about?"
Tang Tang glanced at Zhou Yan angrily, "What should we do now?"
"The business probably won't be done. It's almost five o'clock. Let's go settle the bill."
Zhou Yan looked at his phone, it was four forty-five.
After thinking about it, I put the schoolbag on my back on the ground.
The outside of the schoolbag was also wet from the sudden heavy rain. In addition, Zhou Yan and Tang Tang ran a little fast, and there were places that the umbrellas could not cover. When Zhou Yan touched it, it was wet.
Zhou Yan opened the zipper of his schoolbag and took out two small satchels.
The small satchel was well protected and did not get wet. After all, it contained cash.
"Let's go."
Zhou Yan packed up a little, put the two small satchels on his shoulders, then grabbed Tang Tang's little hand and walked inside.
"Zhou Yan, is our current relationship a little abnormal?"
Tang Tang suddenly asked.
"What's abnormal?" Zhou Yan was stunned.
Tang Tang's face was flushed, and a few drops of rainwater still appeared on her hair, sliding down her face. She whispered, "Only male and female friends can hold hands."
"Then are you my girlfriend?"
Zhou Yan laughed angrily.
"No." Tang Tang whispered.
"Then you still let me hold you?" Zhou Yan asked.
"Then let go." Tang Tang pouted, a little unhappy.
"I'll just hold you." Zhou Yan sneered, "I don't care if you are my girlfriend."
"Shitou, you are so domineering." Tang Tang whispered.
"I'm leaving."
Zhou Yan let go of Tang Tang's little hand without any hesitation and was about to walk inside.
"No, don't go."
Tang Tang didn't know why, but suddenly panicked, and he followed over and grabbed Zhou Yan's hand.
"What?"
Zhou Yan looked at Tang Tang, "Aren't you going to let me lead you?"
"I'm your sister, I can... you can hold her."
Tang Tang suddenly said this out of nowhere, and after finishing speaking, his face became even more rosy.
"Okay, if you're going to lead me, don't make any ink marks. Don't watch too many soap operas on Bangzi."
Zhou Yan grabbed Tang Tang's little hand, which trembled and stopped struggling.
"Oh." Tang Tang responded softly.
She suddenly felt that Zhou Yan was so domineering.
Little girl movie.
Zhou Yan grabbed Tang Tang's smooth and soft little hand and walked in the corridor of the small foreign-style building, with a bit of ridicule in his eyes.
For some reason, Zhou Yan thought it was quite interesting to bully Tang Tang.
The aisle was lit, but it was raining, so the light was affected, and the aisle was also a little dark.
Zhou Yan pulled Tang Tang up to the second floor, came to the manager's office, and knocked on the door.
"Come in."
Old Hu's angry voice sounded.
"Wait for me outside."
Zhou Yan handed the schoolbag to Tang Tang and asked her to hold it.
"Okay." Tang Tang nodded.
Holding Zhou Yan's schoolbag and smelling it, it was Zhou Yan's sweat. Tang Tang wrinkled his beautiful eyebrows, but still did not put down his schoolbag.
Zhou Yan pushed the door open and came in. There was a gust of warm air. It was obvious that the air conditioner was on in the office.
If it's not raining, turn on the cold air conditioner. If it's raining, turn on the hot air conditioner. This little old man really knows how to enjoy it.
In the office, Lao Hutou was leaning leisurely on the sofa. When he saw Zhou Yan come in, he was not surprised.
"Here we come, Mr. Zhou."
The old bearded man handed over a Hongtashan.
Zhou Yan took it subconsciously, hesitated for a moment, and put it on the tea table, "Forget it, it's boring to smoke."
"Have you smoked before?"
Old Hu Tou looked at Zhou Yan's actions and found them quite interesting.
"So be it."
Zhou Yan did not deny it and sat directly on the sofa.
"The one who came with you before was your little girlfriend?"
Old Hutou raised his eyebrows, picked up an inverted tea cup, poured hot tea into it, shook it, poured the tea into the tea trough, then poured another cup and handed it to Zhou Yan.
He didn't mention the money.
Zhou Yan picked up the hot tea and took a sip. Well, Pu'er is good for warming the stomach.
"She is my sister."
Zhou Yan said just now after drinking a cup of tea.
"That's it."
Lao Hutou nodded secretly, it turned out that she was not his girlfriend.
"How's it going? Is your work going well?"
Lao Hutou entered the topic and asked with a smile.
"How can it not go smoothly if you stand to collect money?" Zhou Yan smiled slightly, "It's just that the rain is a bit unsettling."
"Haha, the weather in Hongcheng is like this. You will suffer a lot when you live in Hongcheng from now on."
The old bearded man laughed.
"Well, the money is all here."
Zhou Yan took off the two bags slung on his shoulders and handed them to Lao Hutou.
"How much did you earn?" Old Hu Tou looked at the bulging satchel and was a little surprised.
"You gave me 600 tickets, and now I have more than 200. I estimate there are about 8,000."
Zhou Yan curled his lips.
"You don't seem surprised?" Lao Hutou looked at Zhou Yan's calm tone and asked with a smile.
"It's a bit late. If we start from the morning, the revenue should exceed tens of thousands."
Zhou Yan felt a little regretful.
"Young man, you can keep your composure. I saw the right person." Old Hutou said with a smile.
"Aren't you afraid that I'll take the money and run away?" Zhou Yan asked back.
"I can trust you." Lao Hutou rolled his eyes. Mr. Xia was very interested in this boy Zhou Yan. If he really took the money and ran away, it can only be said that Mr. Xia had misjudged the person.
Besides, a monk can escape but not a temple.
If such a small amount of money could really test out Zhou Yan's character, Lao Hutou would be happy to see it.
"Do you want cash, or do you want it charged to your card?" Old Hutou asked.
