Delayed confession

Chapter 29: Figure in the Rain

Maybe it was the natural sensitivity of businessmen. Within a few minutes, an aunt selling umbrellas came to the entrance of the aquarium.

As everyone was waiting, a boy who looked like a high school student asked,

"how much is it?"

"35 yuan each." The aunt took out a pink umbrella with a smile on her face, and kept muttering that the rain would not stop for a while, and stepped up her sales.

Xu Weixi pushed aside the crowd, took two steps forward, stood under the eaves and looked at the sky, without saying a word, and stepped back.

"Of course, are you hungry?"

"Not hungry." The little boy shook his head obediently.

"Let's buy it later." Xu Weixi thought about it and stopped Gu Mochuan who was about to pay, and took them to the rest area.

She took something out of her pocket and put it in Ranran's hand. "Sister, here are some chocolates. Eat some first to fill your stomach. The rain will stop soon."

"Although it may be a bit redundant, I still want to say that this rain will stop in less than half an hour."

Gu Mochuan was staring at his cuffs in a daze. When he heard Xu Weixi's explanation, he said gently, "I'll listen to you."

Xu Weixi was startled by his expression, thinking back to when she had just said something that she shouldn't have said.

She nodded and sat next to Ranran, "Let's sit down for a while."

Because there were not many people buying, the auntie selling umbrellas saw that no one was selling and went somewhere else. The people at the door also dispersed and found places to rest and wait for the rain to stop.

Xu Weixi's position was just right to see the rain outside. Suddenly, he looked closely and saw that the little boy who had just bought an umbrella was walking side by side with a girl, with most of the umbrella leaning towards the girl.

Yu Guangzhong saw Gu Mochuan talking to Ranran, and suddenly remembered something very similar.

The experimental building of Xiqiao No. 1 Middle School is some distance away from the teaching building. That afternoon, as the study committee member, she found it was raining outside after she finished cleaning the laboratory.

Only Gu Mochuan was holding an umbrella and looking at the rain outside like he was now.

Because the rain was so heavy and there was no sign of stopping, and the next class was physics, which she was not very good at, she hesitated for a moment and decided to borrow Gu Mochuan's umbrella.

Unexpectedly, the other party did not take the opportunity to laugh at her, but generously offered to share the umbrella with her.

The two of them walked side by side on the path in the campus, with the umbrella tilted towards her. When they reached the teaching building, most of Gu Mochuan's body was already wet.

At that time, Gu Mochuan was quite righteous.

Xu Weixi was looking at the young people in the rain when suddenly the phone in her bag rang, "Xiao Xu, there is an interview this afternoon. You and Lu Yao should go and take notes."

Due to the nature of the Propaganda Department's work, everyone needs to be deployed randomly and learn a variety of skills to deal with various emergencies.

Xu Weixi had no other thoughts and asked quickly, "What time?"

"We're going to meet at three o'clock. For details, you can ask Lu Yao. I have her WeChat, right?"

It is clearly a declarative sentence but it is in interrogative tone.

Wang Xing then added, "If not, add it from the group."

"Ok."

After Xu Weixi hung up the phone, she began to search for Lu Yao's WeChat ID in the group.

Xu Weixi: [Hello, Sister Lu, I am Xu Weixi. Wang Xing asked me to go to an interview with you this afternoon. Do I need to make any preparations in advance? ]

As soon as Xu Weixi sent the message, he received a reply.

Lu Yao: [No need, go to the sales office of Yuyue Mansion on Jianhua Road and wait for me at 1:30.]

Xu Weixi looked at the time and it was already twelve o'clock. It would take 40 minutes to take a taxi from here to Yuyue Mansion without traffic jam. Now is the rush hour. Looking at the rain outside, it was about to stop sporadically.

Gu Mochuan saw that the rain had stopped, so he pushed Ranran over to call Xu Weixi.

"Sister Weixi, the rain has stopped, let's go."

Xu Weixi put away his phone, looked at Ranran's blushing face, and said apologetically,

"I'm sorry, Ranran, I have work to do and can't go to dinner with you. Let's do it next time, okay?"

When the child heard this, his eyes immediately became wet and he asked aggrievedly,

"Sister Weixi...are you angry with Ranran?"

Xu Weixi quickly raised his hand to assure,

"No. I promise, my sister really has work to do."

After the rain stopped, people who were stranded in various places came out one after another.

Xu Weixi led Ranran to Gu Mochuan's side, and said as they walked,

"You guys go eat, I have something else to do so I'll leave first."

Gu Mochuan originally thought that they were going to have dinner together, but he didn't expect it to be like this. He immediately stopped and said indifferently,

"If you don't want to eat together, just tell me."

Xu Weixi didn't expect Gu Mochuan to question her, and explained with a look of surprise,

“I do have a job.”

"What kind of job is it that doesn't even allow time for meals?"

Because they were parked on the only way out of the park, and they had outstanding temperaments, at first glance, it looked like a family of three traveling, the girl was a workaholic, and the boy was in a bad mood.

People passing by were already whispering. Xu Weixi covered Ranran's ears and retorted,

"Master Gu, I have no inheritance to inherit, and I'm really in a hurry."

Perhaps it was because the discussions of the people around him were too loud, Gu Mochuan felt a little embarrassed and found a way out for himself.

"I send you."

Xu Weixi handed Ranran to him, "No need, take Ranran to eat, he has been playing for so long, he must be hungry."

"What about you? Going to work without eating?" Gu Mochuan stopped Xu Weixi who was about to leave.

"I'll just buy some bread later. Bye." After saying that, Xu Weixi ran to the entrance of the park to take a taxi.

Looking at Xu Weixi who had already caught a taxi, the little boy swallowed his saliva.

"Godfather, what should I do?"

"Are you hungry?" Gu Mochuan thought for a moment, as if weighing something.

Ranran hugged Gu Mochuan's thighs and said, "Godfather, you can't abandon me just to chase your wife. My mother will be sad."

A passerby who was unaware of the situation thought that Gu Mochuan was abusing the child. Just as he was about to take action, he was scared away by Gu Mochuan's murderous eyes.

"Get up and talk properly."

Ran Ran also felt that the drama was a bit too much, and quickly said, "I think the beautiful sister doesn't like you because you have no taste."

Gu Mochuan picked him up and asked with a raised eyebrow, "For example?"

"You should have bought an umbrella just now. Umbrellas are only that big when the time comes. You know what I mean."

"Didn't you hear that she didn't let me buy it just now?"

Ran Ran said like an adult, "Didn't you see that she was staring at the person holding an umbrella outside for a long time?"

"Then what should we do now?" Gu Mochuan opened the car door and let Ranran down.

"Sister Weixi hasn't eaten yet. Let's pack her a portion and send it to her workplace. She will definitely be very touched."

Gu Mochuan nodded, "Do you know where she is going?"

"Hey, didn't you ask just now?" Ran Ran said proudly, "I asked, Yuyue Mansion."

"There are six Yuyue Mansions in Xiqiao City." Gu Mochuan said as he started the car, "Which one?"

Then he saw the little ghost suddenly become wilted in the rearview mirror, and Gu Mochuan raised the corner of his mouth with pride.
