Chapter 162 Night Rain
When Shen Pianpian returned home, it was already dark. As the sunset faded, the wind began to blow, and it looked like it was going to rain.
She met the nanny who came to deliver food again at the door.
Thinking back to the scene of our first meeting, the aunt had already said that the top floor apartment was not for sale, and she knew that my attitude was so strange when I lived next door, so how come she didn't notice it?
Miss Shen greeted the aunt with a smile.
"It's going to be a little late today, auntie?"
"Something delayed me, but the young master hasn't returned home yet, so it's just in time for me to deliver it now."
Shen Pianpian glanced at the food box in her hand, said goodbye politely, licked his lips and went back to the house.
The lunch boxes on the crew tasted a bit strange today, so she didn't eat much. Only now did she feel a little hungry.
After entering the house, she went straight to the refrigerator. After opening it, she found that the stock had been cleared out, with only a box of uneaten cheese left.
Miss Shen scraped off the last bit with a spoon, looking aggrieved, and then lay on the table on the balcony to prepare to order takeout.
Just as she was struggling to decide whether to eat pizza or fried chicken, there was a loud rumble in the sky, and the wind suddenly lifted Chen Pianpian's hair, making the branches and leaves in the flowerpot rustle.
Shen Pianpian stared at the dark sky in amazement.
"Is it going to rain?"
Just as he finished speaking, there was another rumbling thunder, like the sound of iron cavalry rolling across the sky, and then drops of water floated into the balcony and fell on Shen Pianpian's face.
Miss Shen: ...

Identification Center
Secretary Liu was standing outside the gate holding an umbrella and had been waiting for a while.
Finally, the tall figure of the man slowly walked out, and Secretary Liu quickly stepped forward to shield him from the rain.
"Boss."
Cheng Zhiyuan walked towards the car without saying a word. In the dim light, one could see the yellow file bag in his hand.
The driver hurriedly opened the door, and Secretary Liu didn't put away his umbrella and got into the passenger seat until Cheng Zhiyuan got in the car.
"Boss, what are we now...?"
There was no response from the back seat.
Secretary Liu tilted his head slightly. The man leaned back in his chair with his head tilted back slightly. The dim light from the car ceiling vaguely reflected his handsome and deep brows. From Secretary Liu's angle, he could also see his hands on his knees.
His knuckles are slightly larger due to his many years of military service, but because his fingers are long, these distinct joints appear particularly graceful and powerful.
At this moment, this slender hand was tightly grasping the file bag. He squeezed the bag so hard unconsciously that veins bulged out on the back of his hand.
Secretary Liu silently withdrew his gaze, remembering that when the boss followed the staff to get the appraisal form, the person who called to inform him of the results said to him,
"I've already informed you of the results over the phone. I don't understand why Mr. Cheng had to rush over to get them in person. The results are already there, and they won't disappear. Wouldn't it be the same if I just delivered them to you tomorrow?"
Actually, there is nothing to understand.
Secretary Liu looked at the rain outside the window and thought.
I just can't believe it.
So I couldn't bear to wait even a minute longer to see and confirm the result with my own eyes.
The sound of rain outside the window came in muffledly, and then he heard a slightly hoarse voice from the back seat,
"Go back to Cheng's house."

Shen Pianpian listened to the sound of rain and felt that she was getting hungrier and hungrier. It happened to be a rainy day and the takeaway shops were crowded. She was afraid that she would be too hungry by the time the food was delivered to her door.
Finally she remembered the hot meal her aunt had sent next door.
She leaned over the table and looked to the side with a blank face. She found that the window there was not closed and the curtains of the floor-to-ceiling window were blown out by the wind.
Miss Shen's eyes rolled, and she immediately became alert. She secretly started to text Secretary Liu.
"Why hasn't your boss Cheng gone home yet?"
There was silence for a moment and then returned.
"I probably won't be back today."
When Shen Pianpian got the news, he immediately put down his phone and stood up. He stared at the large flower pot between the two balconies, rubbed his hands, and smiled with his big white teeth.

Secretary Liu was wondering why they didn't go straight to the California Sunshine after getting the results, but now he knows the answer.
He put away his phone and stood straight with an umbrella.
In front of me is the Cheng family cemetery under the night rain.
The man had been inside for quite some time.
