The rain was coming down hard, and puddles had begun to form on the ground, with raindrops creating small bubbles in the water.
Su Yan drove his car, following behind Su Zhen’s taxi.
A few minutes later, they stopped in front of a cinema on the comrcial street, the one they used to frequent.
He parked the car on the roadside without getting out, watching as she opened her umbrella and stood by the door, taking out her mobile phone to make a call.
She stood by the door, with people coming and going around her, she looked around, the wind blew the rain slantwise, she shivered under her umbrella, but for a long ti, no one seed to co to her.
Perhaps it was nearly showti, she made another call to hurry soone, then closed her umbrella and went into the cinema.
Su Yan still watched towards the cinema entrance, the windshield wipers tirelessly doing their job, he reached for the cigarette box in front of him, taking out a cigarette and placing it between his fingers.
He smoked three in a row, halfway through the third one when he saw Rong Yushen step out from a black limousine, another figure, looking like a family chauffeur, hurried out to hold an umbrella for him.
Escorted to the entrance by the chauffeur, the attendant stopped, standing by the door to wait.
Su Yan wondered, did wealthy heirs need a chauffeur to wait at the cinema door just to watch a movie?
Then he thought again, wasn’t he also idly occupying a parking space in front of the cinema?
Taking another drag, he thought.
When the third cigarette was finished, just as he was about to take out a fourth, he saw Rong Yushen who had just entered not long ago co back out, looking sowhat annoyed.
The chauffeur imdiately moved the umbrella over, walking to the side of the car, the chauffeur opened the door, and Rong Yushen bent down to get in.
Su Yan was still puzzled, had he not found Su Zhen or had he stood her up? While he was wondering, a black silhouette dashed out of the cinema, forgoing the umbrella, ran straight into the rain towards the limousine.
She pounded on the closed car door, saying sothing, the rain quickly soaked her through, and as she hamred on the window, the limo suddenly started, driving forward with her body leaning against it.
Su Zhen finally steadied herself and took off running after it, but after only a couple of steps, she fell sitting on the ground...
Su Yan frowned deeply, took the cigarette from his mouth that he was about to light, carelessly tossed it in front of the car window, then reached for the black umbrella in the back seat, and walked straight toward the girl sitting in the rain, crying, and being pointed at.
The painful pelting of raindrops on her suddenly ceased, and through her tear-blurred vision, Su Zhen turned her head to see Su Yan holding the umbrella behind her.
Imdiately, she flung herself into his embrace, clutching his waist and sobbing, "He wants to break up with ..."
Su Yan’s face was full of compassion, letting her wet head press against his clothes, he reached out to touch her damp hair, whispering, "Then let’s break up."
"Wuu... am I very annoying?"
Su Yan pulled her up, her body shivering in his arms as she cried without any image to uphold.
Probably if the dia captured this, it would make the headlines.
The popular Xiaoxiao Shen Yi’an, disheveled in the streets, suspected of early love and being abandoned.
Shen Yi’an’s new role revealed: Drama in the rain.
...
"Uncle, tell ! Am I really annoying?"
Su Yan held the umbrella with one hand and embraced her with another, his tone was always indulgent: "Not at all."
Su Zhen cried even more aggrievedly: "He said I’m noisy and clingy, clumsy and bad at howork, and I eat a lot too..."
Hearing this, Su Yan ended up laughing instead, wasn’t it he who spoiled her like this?
"Uncle, am I really that bad?"
"Not at all."
"When have I ever been noisy? When have I been clumsy? I only eat a little bit!"
"Yeah."
Indeed, when she couldn’t sleep, she was noisy enough to make him want to hit soone, clumsy enough that she still couldn’t do the problem he taught her several tis, which did drive him crazy, and when it ca to eating, she indeed had a good appetite.
But these were not flaws in his eyes, they were her uniqueness.
As she got into the car she kept saying she wasn’t noisy, anwhile continuously complained without stopping.
Su Yan just drove, occasionally humming in agreent with her.
Hearing that she had broken up, he felt much better.
When she got back ho, he had her take a hot shower, and by the ti she erged, he had already prepared lunch.
He walked over, naturally pulled her to sit in front of him, and picked up the hairdryer to dry her hair.
The hairdryer buzzed noisily, and she babbled on non-stop.
After her hair was dry, Su Yan turned off the hairdryer and asked her, "What were you mumbling about by yourself?"
"I don’t care about him; thinks he’s so great, huh? I haven’t even scorned him yet! From now on, I won’t even talk to him!"
Su Yan chuckled softly, "Go have your al, all that talking must have made you hungry?"
Su Zhen nodded her head, sat down at the dining table, picked up her chopsticks, and suddenly realized sothing, looking at Su Yan dissatisfiedly: "You think I’m noisy too, don’t you?"
"No, eat up. It won’t taste as good once it’s cold."
"Hmph, I won’t talk to you either."
Su Yan smiled faintly, feeling exceedingly good for once, and kept adding food to her bowl, while she ate everything up voraciously.
After the al, with pouted lips, she said to him, "You think I eat too much, don’t you?"
"No."
"Then why do you keep piling food into my bowl?!"
"Didn’t you say you weren’t going to talk to ?"
"Hmph, fine, I won’t talk!"
She turned her head away, put down her chopsticks, and walked off, leaving Su Yan watching her petulantly cute figure, finding her unbearably adorable.
After the al, Su Yan cleaned up the table, washed the dishes, and when he stepped outside, Su Zhen was sprawled lazily on the couch watching a variety show.
The program was filled with laughter, but she maintained the sa expression, her mind obviously not on the TV, likely still pondering the breakup.
Su Yan picked up her feet that were resting on the couch, took a seat, then placed her feet on his lap, and after a mont of silence, he started: "I have sothing to tell you."
She pouted at him, then turned her gaze back to the TV: "I said I’m not talking to you."
Su Yan didn’t engage in her childish behavior, gently holding her little foot and looking at her earnestly, "After I finish shooting this drama, we’ll go back."
When Su Zhen heard this, she imdiately sat up, "Go back where?!"
"Back to your parents’."
In fact, when he heard that she was dating Rong Yushen, he had thought of this, as a way to split them up.
But the idea of forcibly breaking them up ant Su Zhen might not give up on Rong Yushen, she might even co to hate him, or refuse to go with him.
Now it was good, as her attachnts here were gone, it was crucial to leave quickly to avoid such events from happening again.
"Going back there ans you can still work and study. Haven’t you always been missing Mom and Daddy?"
He thought she would be delighted to hear this, but instead, she suddenly sat up, her eyes misting over, and looked at Su Yan: "Uncle, do you want to get rid of ? When we go back, are you going to leave with Mom and Daddy and stop living with ?"
Su Yan was taken aback briefly before reaching out to embrace her: "Why would you think that? We can still be together after going back. If you miss Mom and Daddy, go stay with them, and co find when you miss ."
"Is that really the case? Did you get a girlfriend?"
"When have I ever lied to you?"
Su Zhen looked as if she tentatively believed him, then said, "When we go back, I still want to live with you!"
"Okay." He was actually worried she wouldn’t want to live with him, just like when Rong Yushen ca into the picture and she stopped clinging to him.
Upon saying this, she got excited: "Then when do we go back? I want to eat Uncle’s prawns! I also want to bring Xiaoxiao out to play!"
Seeing her excited look, Su Yan couldn’t help but laugh as well.
After many years, having such a little girl always beside him was more than he could ask for.
Ever since her mother passed away, he thought his life was dood to be lonely. The arrival of Su Zhen felt like a gift from heaven.
A noisy, clingy, foolish girl who couldn’t do howork and ate a lot—yet he wanted to spend a lifeti looking after her...
