That night, because of the sudden inspiration to paint, Chen Yao finally stayed up until the early morning.
Fortunately, she was quite satisfied with the drawings, so it was worth it.
The next day, she slept until noon. When she went downstairs, she saw Aunt Fang bringing the dishes to the table, so she greeted her.
Aunt Fang smiled and said, "You're up now. Come over and wash your hands and have dinner. We're the only two here today. The old lady and A Ye have gone to the city and may not be back until the evening."
Chen Yao responded, then took a look at WeChat and saw that Chi Ye had sent her a message in the morning.
[Chi Ye: I'll send you the video I took yesterday later.]
Chen Yao replied: [It’s okay, don’t worry.]
There was no reply from the other end, maybe they were busy.
Chen Yao put down her phone and ignored it, washing her hands and going to eat.
While eating, Aunt Fang casually asked, "The weather has become a bit hotter recently, and there are more mosquitoes around the B&B. Be careful when you open the doors and windows to see if there are any mosquitoes flying into the room."
Chen Yao picked up a piece of green vegetables with chopsticks and replied, "Okay."
Aunt Fang nodded and continued, "If any bugs fly into your room, come find me and I'll help you deal with it."
Chen Yao smiled and said, "Thank you, auntie."
Aunt Fang waved her hand: "It's okay, as long as you don't mind."
......
The weather was very hot and humid in the afternoon, and it looked like it was going to rain heavily.
Looking at the weather conditions, Chen Yao didn't plan to go out. She simply closed the doors and windows in the room and lay on the bed to play with her mobile phone.
There was no other news on WeChat except for messages from family and Lu Zhiwei.
In the evening, when Chen Yao went downstairs to eat, she saw Grandma Chi.
"Grandma, you're back." She greeted.
"I came back in the afternoon, and it's just right that you came down. Here are some fruits I brought back today. You can take some and eat them. They are all fresh." Grandma Chi stood up and took a basket, filling it with a lot of fruits for her.
"Grandma, I don't need that much. I can't finish it." Chen Yao declined.
"It's okay, just take them. We have plenty at home. These were specially picked by Chi Ye's father today. They are much fresher than those sold outside." Grandma Chi said.
"Thank you, grandma." Chen Yao accepted it.
"It's okay." Grandma Chi said.
As she spoke, she glanced at the weather outside and muttered, "It's going to rain heavily today. I don't know if Ah Ye will come back tonight. If he does, don't rush. It's so dangerous to drive in this rain. No, I have to call him and tell him."
Shen Yao was a little surprised: “Grandma, didn’t Chi Ye come back with you?”
Grandma Chi was flipping through her phone contacts while replying, "No, he had some things of his own to take care of, so he asked the driver to take me back first."
After she finished speaking, she dialed the number in her hand.
But Chi Ye never answered the call.
Grandma Chi frowned slightly and asked curiously, "Why doesn't this child answer the phone?"
She usually doesn't like to use WeChat, and prefers to use the phone when she has something to do. Usually, as long as she calls Chi Ye, he will answer the call quickly even if he is busy, but she doesn't know what happened today.
After that, she made a few more calls, but Chi Ye still didn't answer.
"Strange..." she muttered.
Chen Yao asked from the side: "What's wrong, grandma, is Chi Ye not answering the phone?"
Grandma Chi: "Yeah, forget it, I'll just send him a WeChat message."
......
After dinner, the sky became even darker.
After Grandma Chi reminded Chen Yao to remember to close the doors and windows of her room, she went back to her room to watch TV. Seeing that the weather was bad, Aunt Fang also went back to her room early to rest.
After Chen Yao responded, she suddenly remembered that she had left a spare phone in the car when she was going to drive her own car to watch the meteor shower yesterday. Thinking of the possible strong winds and heavy rain that might come soon, and maybe even thunder, she decided to go to the car to get the spare phone.
At night, after it was completely dark, a storm suddenly came.
Chen Yao listened to the crackling sound of rain outside and suddenly felt a little dazed: "System, should I have closed the car doors and windows just now?"
System: "I'll help you check it now."
Chen Yao: "Okay."
The system suddenly paused, "Host, Chi Ye drove back, but he is sitting in the car and has not come out."
Chen Yao was surprised: "Ah? Are you sure?"
System: "It's him, right? But why didn't he get out of the car? Did he not bring an umbrella? Did he not want to get wet so he just sat in the car and waited for the rain to subside?"
Chen Yao: "That shouldn't be the case. We're already at the doorstep. It's just a matter of running a few steps. Besides, if he really doesn't want to get wet in the rain, he can just tell Grandma or Aunt Fang."
System: “Yes.”
Chen Yao thought about it, got up from the bed, and went to the suitcase to look for an umbrella.
The system asked curiously, "Host, why are you looking for an umbrella? Are you going downstairs to pick up Chi Ye?"
Chen Yao: "It doesn't count, I'll go down and see if my car doors and windows are closed properly."
The system replied obediently, "Everything is closed. I just checked for you, but I haven't told you yet."
Chen Yao: "Oh, I see. I'll go down and take a look."
The system chuckled.
When Chen Yao went downstairs with an umbrella, she felt that the sound of rain outside seemed to be louder. She didn't know if it was her illusion.
At this moment, the whole house was quiet, making the crackling sound of the rain outside seem particularly fierce.
When she got downstairs and opened the door, before she even opened her umbrella, Chen Yao was blown into a mess by the wind and rain.
she:......
But, since I'm here.
She straightened her hair that was blown by the wind and rain, and then opened the umbrella in her hand.
......
