I thought about what Lan Feng had told me before about my adoption, and I became more and more suspicious of what she said.
Is it such a coincidence? I was adopted right after I got lost? Didn't the Lan family ever think of helping me find my biological parents?
What's more, the Ming and Tang families were both desperately looking for me at the time. If the Lan family had really called the police to find my parents for me, it would have been impossible for the Tang and Ming families not to have gotten the news.
Yan Meng and I returned to the car. I thought about this matter silently, but I really couldn't figure it out.
Yan Meng also noticed my confusion and took the initiative to ask me, "You also feel that the time between you getting lost and being adopted was too close, right?"
I nodded: "I always feel that there is something strange here."
"I think so too. You were adopted in such a short time. It doesn't seem like you were picked up by Lan's parents. It seems more like a human trafficker desperate to get rid of your property."
Yan Meng's casual guess made my heart skip a beat and I couldn't help but fall into deep thought.
But my doubt was only for a moment and was quickly denied.
The Lan family is just an ordinary family, not well-off, and they already have a daughter, Lan Feng, so there is no reason to spend money to buy another daughter.
Moreover, after so many years of getting along, Lan's parents treat me better than Lan Feng, and their values are also very positive. They should not do such a thing as human trafficking.
I was a little confused and couldn't make sense of it for a while, so I simply urged Yan Meng, "Go back first. I'll think about this matter carefully when I get back."
Yan Meng started the car and just drove into the city when there was a sudden flash of lightning and thunder in the sky and a rainstorm came unexpectedly.
Raindrops hit the windshield with a crackling sound. The wipers swung back and forth, but it was still difficult to see the road ahead. Yan Meng had already driven the car at the slowest speed.
None of us expected that the weather would be so bad today. Now it is windy and rainy, and the water on the road is getting deeper and deeper. We passed several low-lying areas on the way here. If we go back now, the water in those low-lying areas will be enough to submerge the car.
Yan Meng had to stop the car on the side of the road and check the traffic situation on his mobile phone.
"This downpour is so heavy that the drainage systems in many parts of the city have problems. The water is too deep to drive. This downpour will continue for several more hours. It looks like we're stuck here."
I don’t care, I just feel sorry for Yan Meng.
"I should have checked the weather forecast yesterday. Otherwise, I wouldn't have left you stranded in this storm with me, and you've even delayed your own business."
Yan Meng didn't care and looked at me with a smile. At this time, he was still in the mood to tease: "Don't you think that being together in the heavy rain is a different kind of romance?"
The corners of my mouth twitched stiffly and I rolled my eyes at him: "Wait until your car gets flooded, and you won't find it romantic anymore."
The water level nearby is also rising, so it's no use staying here forever.
Yan Meng searched on his phone and quickly found a solution.
"We don't know when this rain will stop, and being stuck in the car all the time is no use. There's a hotel nearby, let's take shelter there first."
Hotel? Me and him?
I was hesitant, but the rain outside was getting heavier and heavier, and staying in the car was not a wise decision.
Besides, the rain won’t stop for a while. It would be even more embarrassing if Yan Meng and I were really trapped in the car for the whole day.
In the end, I nodded in agreement and let Yan Meng make the arrangements.
