Gu Xiao walked up to her, half squatted down, tilted his head to look at the person on the ground, and remembered what Haley said, 'The girl is very beautiful, will you like her?'
Gu Xiao chuckled. It was just a chess piece. How could he like a chess piece
He stood up slowly. Her hands were surprisingly strong. He squatted down again and pried open her hands that were tightly grasping his trouser legs. Then, he went out, leaving the door ajar.
He opened his umbrella and walked out of the garden. From the corner of his eye he saw Wen Qiao struggling to get out of the house. She was hunched over, but after only two steps she fell in the rain and could not get up again.
The heavy rain was pouring down on her, but her headache did not ease. Wen Qiao thought that someone would find her by now. She had no strength left and could not get up. She really could not get up.
Gu Xiao just paused and looked quietly at the person falling in the heavy rain.
Wen Qiao's vision gradually became blurred, and finally everything went black before his eyes, and he completely passed out.
Gu Xiao turned around, walked out of the business park, and walked along the long, quiet street for ten minutes before arriving at his grandmother's small yard. There were several potted plants on the white wall, their branches and leaves trembling slightly in the rain.
He entered the house. His grandmother was watching a TV series. She was very happy to see him coming: "Have you had dinner?"
Gu Xiao smiled and said, "I've eaten."
"It's raining so hard outside, you can sleep here tonight. Your room is cleaned by grandma every day."
Gu Xiao sat next to his grandmother and nodded: "Yeah."
The grandmother and grandson sat together on the sofa watching TV, the 8 o'clock drama about mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, while raindrops fell on the windowsill.
Although Gu Xiao's eyes were fixed on the TV, Wen Qiao's figure appeared involuntarily in his mind.
It's raining really hard tonight.

The apartment was silent except for the sound of turning pages. Fu Nanli felt irritated and anxious for no reason. He didn't know what was wrong with him. He put down the documents in his hand and dialed Wen Qiao's number.
But no one answered the call. The phone was not turned off, but no one answered.
He dialed several times, but no one answered, so he couldn't sit still any longer.
It is summer vacation now, and Wen Qiao is either at home or in her club. Fu Nanli called Wen Qiao's stepfather Ji Mingyuan, who said that Qiao Qiao had gone to the club.
Fu Nanli asked the driver to drive straight to her club.
In the living room of the small courtyard, Gu Xiao suddenly stood up and walked out. His grandmother called him, "Where are you going?"
"Oh, the club's computer... seems to be turned off. I'll go turn it off."
After that, he opened his umbrella and ran away in a hurry. Grandma muttered at the door: "The computer is not turned off, why don't you ask your friends to turn it off for you? It's raining so hard, kid."
Gu Xiao ran all the way to the entrance of the business park. A car sped past him. It was driving so fast that it stirred up rain water on the ground and splashed it on his legs. It was obvious that the people in the car had something urgent to do.
When I arrived at the entrance of the club, I heard a low growl: "Qiaoer..."
Under the umbrella, he saw the man picking up Wen Qiao from the ground. His voice was so heartbreaking that it made people feel the same way.
When Fu Nanli saw Wen Qiao lying quietly under the heavy rain, his heart seemed to stop suddenly. He got out of the car before it stopped and without even opening an umbrella.
The heavy rain hit her face and she seemed lifeless, lying there motionless.
He didn't know how long she had been lying in the heavy rain. He half-knelt beside her and picked her up. Song An hurriedly got out of the car with an umbrella to help the young master. Fu Nanli growled, "Open the car door!"
