Chapter 112
The biggest difference between university courses and high school is that the curriculum is not so close.

There was no class in the afternoon, and Lu Chi sat in the library until 03:30, when he received a text message from his grandmother, telling him to go home early because it was raining too much.

Lu Chi held the book in one hand and picked up the schoolbag in the other, and went downstairs unhurriedly. He was borrowing books on the first floor, and saw the heavy rain pouring outside the hall, splashing onto the marble floor and creating a cloud of white mist.The girls wore skirts and held umbrellas, and the boys crowded at the door, rolling up their trouser legs to their knees before setting off with umbrellas.

Lu Chi was also wearing long trousers. He was no exception, and he also rolled up his trouser legs before going out.

After 5 minutes, I walked to the main gate of the school, waited for almost 15 minutes, and finally a bus came.It’s not the peak season yet, but because of the heavy rain, the traffic on the road is very congested. It was almost 04:30, and Lu Chi arrived at the transfer station. After waiting for about 5 minutes, he got on the bus that went directly to his new home.

There were not many people in the car, there were a few scattered people sitting in front, Lu Chi sat in the back, and there was no one around.

He looked out the window, it was raining heavily, the driver was driving fast, the wheels splashed a large amount of water, and sprinkled into the green belt on the right.

The bus drove to an intersection where water is easy to accumulate, and the driver congratulated loudly in front: "You are lucky, it is raining so much, if it continues, the bus will probably not be able to pass after a while..."

Lu Chi couldn't hear the words behind, because the sound of the bus passing through the water, like crossing a river, blurred the driver's words.

After driving through this intersection, although there is still water on the road ahead, it is no problem to open to traffic.

Lu Chi suddenly remembered something, took out the phone book, and sent a text message to Shen's father and Shen's mother: Uncle/Auntie, there is water at the intersection of XX Road, you may not be able to get through the car when you come back, go another way.

Now the two families live next door. Lu Chi remembered that Shen's father and Shen's mother had classes tonight, and they didn't get home until after nine o'clock.

The couple quickly sent a message to thank him.

Lu Chi knew that they would definitely call Shen Dai who was a freshman in high school, but to be conservative, he still sent a message to Shen Dai.

The text message has been sent, but there has been no response. Lu Chi doesn't know if she didn't see it or if she saw it and it's inconvenient to reply, so put away the phone for the time being.The bus was almost home, and the phone vibrated, Lu Chi quickly took out his phone, but it was his grandmother who called, asking where he was, and after the call, Lu Chi checked the text message, but there was still no Shen Dai.

Looking at the time, Shen Dai has already finished school and should be on the way now.After getting off the bus, Lu Chi held an umbrella and walked towards the community. While walking, he called Shen Dai, but he was reminded that the other party had turned off the phone. Lu Chi frowned. When he walked downstairs to Shen's house, he took out his mobile phone again, but still couldn't get through.

Lu Chi looked at the heavy rain and was a little worried.

"Ah Chi, who are you calling?" Grandma Jiang didn't come home for a long time. Grandma Jiang walked to the window and saw a man standing in front of the next door with her own umbrella and shouted loudly.

Lu Chi had no choice but to go home first.

Grandma Jiang has already gone downstairs.

Lu Chi put away his umbrella and walked in, "Grandma, there's water at the XX intersection again, I'll tell my uncle and aunt to make them take a detour."

After hearing this, Grandma Jiang sighed a few words about the city's drainage measures, and suddenly thought of Shen Dai, "By the way, today Daibao will come back by bus by himself, will he be stuck there? No, I have to call her and ask Ask." She is retired, besides the grandson, the four members of the Shen family are the closest, the days when Shen's father and mother have evening classes, and the days when Shen Dai has no parents to pick them up, the old people all remember.

But it was the same when she called, Shen Dai's phone was turned off.

Grandma Jiang was in a hurry. Even though the children were grown up, in her eyes, they were still children, especially Shen Dai, who was the most worrying.

"Achi, go to the intersection and have a look. What if Daibao is stuck there, and the phone is turned off." The grandson is steady and capable, and Grandma Jiang is very relieved to let her go to meet him.

Lu Chi also had the car keys in his hand, so he put down his schoolbag and went to the garage to drive.

About 15 minutes later, when we arrived opposite Jishui intersection, Lu Chi sat in the car and saw a bus parked there. A group of passengers stood outside the bus. I got into a van that specializes in individual business, and took a detour.Lu Chi got out of the car and looked for a familiar figure with an umbrella, but there was no one wearing the high school uniform on the opposite side.

Another bus came from behind, Lu Chi took out his mobile phone and called Shen Dai, who hadn't expected it, but this time he got through.

At this time, Shen Dai really wanted to cry, but when her mother called and told her to take a taxi to go back after school, Shen Dai's phone had only one battery left. She was afraid of accidents on the way, so she turned it off to save battery.After school, her classmates called her to take the bus together. With a sense of luck, Shen Dai got on the bus with her classmates. Halfway through, her classmates got off the bus. She looked out of the car worriedly, and when she found that the water outside was gradually getting deeper, she felt a surge in her heart. Having a bad premonition, the driver actually stopped and let his group of passengers get off in front.

Shen Dai was worried and didn't get out of the car in a hurry. She wanted to call her father when she turned on the car, but just after she checked out the call records, Lu Chi's call came.

"Where are you?" There was a cold voice, and the surroundings were noisy, as if people were outside.

Shen Dai was nervous about her battery, and she spoke very quickly, "It's XX intersection, there's water here, I'll call my dad first, hang up..."

Before she finished speaking, Lu Chi interrupted her, "Get off the station and wait by the roadside, I'll go pick you up."

After the call ended, Shen Dai was stunned. The driver in front turned around and saw that there was another person in the car, and urged her to get out of the car loudly. Shen Dai had no choice but to stuff her phone into her schoolbag, put her schoolbag on her back and pick up an umbrella.The sidewalk on the sidewalk outside the car was full of people, and everyone was holding umbrellas. Shen Dai couldn't see anything, and followed the crowd for a while in a daze. Suddenly, she was worried that Lu Chi was coming from behind, so she stopped, curious. Looking back and forth.

Looking around, she saw a black umbrella coming towards this side against the flow of people in front, Shen Dai couldn't help staring at the umbrella, watching it pass through the crowd, revealing a slender figure under the umbrella, wearing black trousers. Up to the knee, the calf is straight and well-proportioned, but part of the upper thigh is also wet. Looking up, it is a white shirt, it is...

Lu Chi's handsome face was blurred by the rain, but the outline was also outstanding.

"Why are you here?" However, in Shen Dai's eyes, Lu Chi who appeared at this time was not the indifferent handsome guy next door, but her hope of returning home. The one who goes home with her on the way.

"Grandma asked me to pick you up." Lu Chi stopped, and when she arrived, he explained calmly, looking at her.The little girl wore a ponytail, and it was raining and cool. Her face was extremely fair, and her eyebrows and eyes were more delicate. She looked at him with watery peach blossom eyes, filled with joy.Lu Chi and her looked at each other, turned around and walked back, "The car is on the opposite side, let's go there first." Detours are too time-consuming.

Shen Dai was dumbfounded, looking at the murky water in front of her that was deeper than her knees, looking at the scattered men who were drowning, she hesitated and said, "Are you going to swim?" The water was too deep, and she was afraid.

"I'll carry you there." Lu Chi said without looking back.

Shen Dai was overwhelmed by the flattery, and froze in place. She has grown up so much, except for playing games when she was a child, she has never been recited by boys other than her father.And Lu Chi, who is usually cold, why is he so nice to her all of a sudden?

Hearing that she didn't follow, Lu Chi turned his head and frowned at her, "Why don't you leave?"

Shen Dai hurriedly chased after her, and said politely in a low voice: "You don't need to memorize it, I will go by myself."

Lu Chi didn't say anything. When he got there, he put away the umbrella in his hand, turned around and handed it to her, "Help me hold it."

Shen Dai took the umbrella in a daze, and before she could ask, she saw Lu Chi squatting down. Such a tall person suddenly became shorter, causing passersby around to turn their heads frequently.Shen Dai's face was extremely hot, she lowered her umbrella to cover her face with guilt, and bent over to help him, "Get up, let's go through the water together." She had already thought of a way, she grabbed his arm, so she wouldn't be afraid of being washed away by the water .

"Come up." Lu Chi said impatiently, looking ahead.

Shen Dai was really embarrassed to let him carry it in public, so she stood beside her and did not move.

Lu Chi looked at her school uniform trousers that were wet by the rain. He looked up, looked up at her small mouth with black eyes, and said softly, "Come on, baby, I'm going fast."

Shen Dai's face was hot again, and it felt weird to be called by a nickname by a boy she was familiar with but also unfamiliar, especially when Lu Chi called her by her nickname very naturally, with an indescribable intimacy.

For some reason, Shen Dai didn't dare to look at him, she would take the soft but not the hard, he was invited repeatedly, it seemed a bit fake for her to be polite.

"Then, thank you." Shen Dai rolled up his umbrella, held the umbrella in her left hand, held her own in her right hand, and lay on his back in a stiff posture.Her head was very close to him all of a sudden, Shen Dai tried her best to raise her upper body, but when Lu Chi hugged her legs and stood up, her center of gravity was out of balance, Shen Dai immediately grabbed his shoulder with her left hand, and her whole upper body was stuck on it, her head almost fell hit him.

"Don't move around." She was lighter than expected, Lu Chi bumped her up, afraid that her shoes would touch the water, he deliberately raised her legs, and reminded her in a low voice when she was about to step into the water , "Legs stretched forward and straightened."

Shen Dai looked at the water below, bit her lip, and straightened her legs like a child.

Lu Chi stepped into the water, the water was very yellow and seemed to flow very fast.Shen Dai was too timid to look at it, so she withdrew her gaze, turned her head, and met Lu Chi's fair side face.Shen Dai has seen Lu Chi many times, but this is the first time to see him so closely, and also the first time to realize that Lu Chi is really good-looking, with straight eyebrows, deep black eyes, and thin lips...

Obsessed with watching, the man suddenly turned around, Shen Dai panicked and quickly lowered her head.

He didn't seem to notice her peeping, and continued to walk forward silently, walking slowly, going against the current, and crossing the "river" with her on his back.

He had broad shoulders, and supported her firmly with both hands. Shen Dai quietly glanced at him again, and with just one glance, her heartbeat suddenly became chaotic, getting faster and faster.

After crossing the road and walking to the shallow water, Lu Chi put her down.

"Thank you." Shen Dai lowered her head, not daring to look at him for some reason.

Her voice softened all of a sudden, her face was flushed, and Lu Chi took another look before silently walking towards the car not far away.

"Your umbrella..." Shen Dai followed his back, Lu Chi had walked several steps, she finally remembered and ran towards him.

"Hold on, we'll get in the car right away." Lu Chi took the umbrella she handed over, but didn't open it, and came to grab the umbrella from her again.

Shen Dai bowed her head to him, he leaned over, put an umbrella on the two of them, and walked side by side.

The rain was bubbling on the ground, Shen Dai secretly looked at Lu Chi's straight calves, and somewhere in her heart, there seemed to be bubbles coming out.

One after another, cheerful and light.
