Parallel Lines of Rebirth

Chapter 276: It kept raining

Views:

In the winter evening, the sky was covered with a heavy curtain early on. The dim stars and the withered yellow leaves made the world under the curtain even more desolate and lonely. The wind gradually picked up, and soon began to whistle across the long street. Dust mixed with leaves rolled into the air, sometimes bumping and sometimes undulating, and in an instant it blocked this deserted road.

A lone brown bird struggled to fly in the strong wind, but finally couldn't resist the power of nature, drew a steep arc, folded its wings and landed on the hood of the Nissan Duke. It combed the hair under its neck with its conical black beak, twisted its head tremblingly, opened its small black bean-like eyes suddenly, spread its wings, and exerted force on its feet, disappearing into the gray sky.

The overwhelming rain poured down, drawing thousands of bright rain lines between the sky and the earth - it was another bone-chilling winter rain.

Winter, rainy night, long street, black Nissan, two people hiding in the car who were once lonely but now leaning on each other. From a distance, it looks like a timeless ink painting.

"Chichi..."

The poor little sparrow's wings were wet by the rain, and it circled in the air and landed on the car. It happened to witness this and was frightened again. It flapped its wings and wanted to fly away, but fell weakly under the car.

The car stopped at the Qinghe Soy Milk Bayi Store. Wen Liang opened the door and got out. Zuo Yuxi said softly, "Be careful recently. I'm afraid Mu Zechen will do something shady..."

Wen Liang nodded and said, "Gu Shitong may not let him do whatever he wants, don't worry." He stepped out of the door, but turned around and smiled, "Which best friend taught you this trick?"

Zuo Yuxi felt sweet in her heart. Wen Liang's question naturally meant that he knew it was her first time, and it was also her first time to do this for a man. She was willing to do some seemingly indecent actions for the one she loved, but it didn't mean that she hoped to be such a person in her lover's heart.

Tender care and consideration always warm people's hearts inadvertently.

Zuo Yuxi lifted her hair and said, "I only have one best friend. Who else could it be besides Jiang Wei?"

"Hahaha!"

Wen Liang raised his head and laughed. He didn't expect that Director Jiang of the Discipline Inspection Commission's Supervision Office would be such a wonderful person.

Rushing into the store in the rain, with his upper body half soaked, Li Shengli came up to him and asked in confusion, "Why are you here in such heavy rain?"

Wen Liang told him about Ning Xi. Li Shengli was excited but also a little nervous. He rubbed his hands and said, "Is this all I have? Is that too rude?"

"It doesn't matter. People look at the person, not the clothes." Wen Liang joked, "Do you know what truly rich people look like?"

"What?"

"That's what you look like, Uncle Li!"

Li Shengli was amused by him and laughed out loud, and his nervousness was reduced a lot.

The two of them took a taxi to Qinyuanchun Hotel. When they opened the private room on the second floor, Ning Xi was already sitting on a sofa, flipping through a magazine.

"Ms. Ning, are you not late?"

Ning Xi raised her wrist to check her watch and said, "It's seven o'clock. Mr. Wen is very punctual!"

There was a hint of sarcasm in Ning Xi's words, as if she was laughing at Wen Liang for pretending to be serious in front of others. What's the matter? He's still calling her Miss Ning. Aren't you pretending to be familiar with her

Even though Uncle Wen had a good understanding of people's hearts, he still couldn't understand women. He had seen Ning Xi's methods in serious matters, so he used formal titles to express his seriousness and importance, but he still annoyed her.

"This is not punctuality, it's rigor! One of my seventy-two virtues!" Wen Liang made a joke at the right time, turned around and pointed at Li Shengli, saying: "Li Shengli, another shareholder of Qinghe!"

Li Shengli was obviously shocked by Ning Xi. Fortunately, he had benefited a lot from following Wen Liang recently, so he looked calm on the surface. He extended his hand and said in a neither humble nor arrogant manner, "Hello, Miss Ning! I've heard Wen Liang talk about you many times, but I was still shocked when I saw you today. I didn't expect you to be so young!"

"No matter how young you are, you are still older than Mr. Wen," Ning Xi said with a smile, "It's you, Mr. Li, who are so handsome that I didn't expect you to be."

Li Shengli has a tall figure and a resolute face. When he was young, he was also a popular person in the agricultural machinery factory. Otherwise, he would not have been admired by so many female workers and finally pursued Zhao Yaqing, a thorny flower. After several years of hardships and setbacks, although he has lost his former handsomeness, he has gained more vicissitudes of life. Now that his wallet is full and his career is about to flourish, his confidence has returned to him, and he naturally has a unique charm.

"Thank you for the compliment!"

Li Shengli smiled innocently and stood behind Wen Liang with his hands behind his back. The difference between the main and the subordinate was immediately apparent. Ning Xi glanced at Wen Liang and walked to the dining table first: "Come here, let's eat first and then talk about things. You must be very hungry today, right?"

She finally softened her heart, thinking of everything Wen Liang had gone through today, and couldn't bear to fight with him anymore. Wen Liang smiled and agreed, but Li Shengli quietly pointed at Ning Xi's wrist and whispered, "Patek Philippe, a famous watch!"

Wen Liang was surprised and said, "That's amazing, Uncle Li. When did you become interested in famous brands?"

Li Shengli was stunned for a moment, with a bitter look in his eyes, and said: "Before Zhao Yaqing left, he gave me this watch and told me that you can never afford it in your lifetime..."

Wen Liang was silent for a moment, then patted him on the shoulder and said, "Soon, you can use this watch to kill a cow!"

"Wenliang, what do you want to eat?"

Ning Xi looked through the menu. Wen Liang patted Li Shengli again and said to Ning Xi with a smile, "If you treat us, we can have a big meal. If I treat us, we can have steamed buns."

Ning Xi curled her lips and went to ask the waiter to take the order.

It was almost eleven o'clock when they finished their meal. The three of them exchanged views extensively on the future of Qinghe and reached a consensus on a series of standardized constructions including company establishment, patent application, store site selection, store logo design, sales system, inventory management, customer service, and central kitchen.

It was a three-person discussion, but basically it was Wen Liang who spoke, Ning Xi supplemented, and Li Shengli took notes. The three of them finalized the cooperation in this small private room. At the end, Wen Liang wiped his mouth and said, "You guys take care of the company's affairs. If there's anything you can't handle, I'll come forward. Let's try to set up the whole framework within ten days."

After leaving the hotel, Li Shengli insisted on taking a taxi home, while Ning Xi sent Wen Liang back to Courtyard No. 7. The rain was still falling madly, and the Porsche slowly stopped at the door. Wen Liang leaned back in the chair, staring at the rain outside the car, and whispered for a long time: "Thank you, Ning Xi!"

The car door opened and closed. Ning Xi turned her head and watched the boy's back disappear into the rainy night. She opened the car window and put her fingers in the rain, as if she could feel his heart and him at this moment!

(Rabindranath Tagore - When you commanded me to sing, my heart seemed to burst with pride, I looked up at your face, tears welled up in my eyes.

In my socket.

All the bitterness and contradictions in my life melted into a sweet harmony—

My praise is like a joyful bird, fluttering its wings across the ocean.

I know you enjoy my singing. I know it is only because I am a singer that I can come before you.

With the outstretched wings of my song I have touched your feet, which I never dared to hope to touch.

Intoxicated by the song, I forgot myself. You were my master, but I called you my friend.

I know not how thou singest, my lord! I always listen in wonder.

The radiance of your music illuminates the world. The breath of your music permeates the heavens.

The holy spring of thy music rushes forward, breaking through all the rocks that stand in its way.

My heart longs to sing with you, but I can't make a sound. I want to speak, but words can't make a song. I call

Oh, you have made my heart a prisoner in the vast net of your music, my master!

Please allow me to slack off for a while and sit beside you. I will finish the work at hand later.

Without your presence, my heart knows no peace or repose, and my work becomes an endless sea of toil.

Endless toil in the.

Today the heat of summer comes to my window and whispers: the bees are singing in the palace of flowers.

This is the time to sit quietly, facing you, singing the song of life in this silence and endless leisure.

Pick this flower and take it away without delay! I am afraid it will wither and fall into the dust.

I received an invitation to the world's festival, my life was blessed. My eyes saw beautiful sights, my

The ears also heard intoxicating music.

My task at this banquet was to play music, and I did my best.

Now, I ask, has the time finally come when I can go in and see your face and offer my silent respect
