Chapter 72 The Weather Is Off



Wu An was unaware that Shen Fang still wanted to settle scores with him, and even if he had, he wouldn't have cared.

He ran all the way to the old house before he remembered that he had something to say to Shen Fang.

There was also no way to contact Shen Fang.

If it were the original him, he would naturally still remember Shen Fang's phone number.

The two of them had dated before, so memorizing phone numbers was a basic skill for them.

But in his previous life, he and Shen Fang were already strangers, so naturally he couldn't possibly still remember her phone number.

There's no rush.

If you live in the same village, you're bound to run into each other.

He didn't want to take the initiative to look for her, lest he make Shen Fang overthink things.

He was afraid of Shen Fang. He didn't know what was wrong with this woman's thinking, how could she "want to go back to her ex"?

You know, in his previous life, he had pestered Shen Fang for a long time, but Shen Fang ignored him completely.

He clearly tried his best to avoid the two of them meeting.

People are just like that, they're just despicable.

What you can't have always seems more alluring; you can only admire it from afar. What's unattainable is always the best.

Wu An shook his head.

Thunder was rumbling outside, so he didn't dare stay outside any longer. He fetched some water, went inside to wash up quickly, and lay on the bed lost in thought until he fell asleep without realizing it.

...

The next morning.

Wu An was woken up by Foreman Li; all the workers had arrived.

He groggily picked up his phone and saw that it was still five minutes until six o'clock. Looking outside, it seemed that it was still dark.

Foreman Li said, "Get up quickly."

"It thundered all night yesterday, but not a drop of rain fell."

“The weather was a bit strange, so I called everyone to come early and get your roof fixed as soon as possible.”

Wu An quickly got up.

Dark clouds loomed outside, giving the impression that a city was about to be destroyed by oppressive darkness.

The wind wasn't strong.

Wu An muttered to himself, "All thunder and no rain, what's going on?"

Could it be that the storm deserved a beating?

Is a typhoon coming?

Are mud crabs coming to migrate?

Wu An's mind tightened. While washing up, he glanced at his luck value of 70 (4) through the hand pump well.

He was completely numb.

What does that mean?

Was it because he overexerted himself before, or did the system think he hadn't worked hard enough?

He muttered to himself, "Are they going to pull off something big for me again?"

Thinking about it this way, I'm even more looking forward to the day the blue crabs pass by.

Luckily, I was planning to go to town to buy a car anyway, so I went to the beach at 4 o'clock because I was lucky enough to make a thousand or so yuan.

Not long after.

Aqing and her brother and sister-in-law came.

I had just finished breakfast when it suddenly started raining.

The raindrops were large.

It landed on the ground, making a crackling sound and creating small craters. It was quickly covered by rainwater, but the workers were prepared and covered the roof with plastic sheeting.

The rain is here on their side.

It comes quickly and goes quickly.

In just over ten minutes, the rain gradually stopped.

After waiting a few more minutes, the light drizzle stopped, but the sky didn't clear up. Layers of dark clouds were gathering, still brewing a new round of rain.

As soon as the rain stopped, the workers got back to work.

Take a break when it rains.

Racing against time, the work isn't actually less than usual, because when it rains and there's no sun, it's actually cooler than usual.

This way, the work is more efficient.

Wu An and his two companions didn't sit idle; they all assisted, with Foreman Li watching over and guaranteeing that the job would be done by noon.

Upon hearing this, Mei Yueqin quickly prepared lunch.

Although the work can be finished by noon, the workers arrive early, so the actual workload is about the same as usual. In any case, the workers need to be able to eat their fill before leaving.

Thankfully, it only rained once in between.

The roof was completely repaired by 11:30. Foreman Li, smoking a cigarette, said, "Even if a typhoon hits, your roof will be absolutely stable."

Wu An transferred two thousand yuan over.

Foreman Li lit another cigarette. He was a heavy smoker, always with a cigarette in his hand, one after another. He said, "Come install the doors and windows tomorrow."

"It will take two days."

Wu An quickly thanked him. The weather looked rather strange; it was very likely that a typhoon was coming. He could only feel at ease if the doors and windows were fixed as soon as possible.

We've eaten.

Seeing that it was still early and it wasn't raining, Wu An and Wu Ping quickly went to Uncle Meng's house to borrow a motorcycle.

Old Meng asked, "Where are you going?"

Wu An said, "Let's go check out the car. It's quite inconvenient for this family not to have a means of transportation."

Old Meng nodded. With repairing the old house and buying a car, it seemed Wu An had really made a lot of money. He was happy for Wu An and reminded them to be careful on the road, as the roads were slippery in the rain.

Wu An responded and drove Wu Ping straight to the town.

There are many shops selling tricycles in the town.

And they're all big brands.

The two of them started looking at each house one by one.

...

“Shen Fang, you’ve come all this way to town, so don’t be so gloomy.” At the milk tea shop in town, Mao Wang said earnestly, “What’s so great about Wu An? He’s just a bit handsome and tall, and he can make money now. But that’s all he is.”

"Look at all this food and drinks on the table. If I had a hundred yuan, I could give you 99 yuan to spend. Can he do that?"

"Look how good I am to you, he can't compare to me at all."

He was really frustrated.

Originally, Wu An was in despair when he got into university and got together with Shen Fang, because he felt he couldn't compare to university students and could only silently give his all.

But as the saying goes, every cloud has a silver lining. Wu An was expelled from university and dumped by Shen Fang.

He felt that his opportunity had arrived.

Indeed, this was the case. Sometimes when he boldly expressed his love, Shen Fang would respond, saying she would consider it.

As a result, Shen Fang, after considering it for a while, suddenly started pursuing Wu An.

His heart was broken.

What's even more infuriating is that Wu An, that bastard, actually ignored us.

Seeing that Shen Fang ignored him, Mao Wang looked at the freckled girl and said, "Li Xue, please say something for me."

“You and Shen Fang are best friends, you wouldn’t want to see her so unhappy, would you?”

Li Xue nodded and said, "What do I have to say? You've said everything you need to say."

"I think you're right."

"Wu An is handsome, tall, and good at making money. In our village, he's definitely a tall, rich, and handsome guy."

"So it's not surprising that Shen Fang is unhappy."

"The one who tied the knot must untie it. Unless Wu An agrees to get back together, Shen Fang will definitely remain unhappy."

Mao Wang clutched his heart: "Then I..."

Li Xue said with a sympathetic look, "Just be yourself."

After a moment of silence, Mao Wang asked, "Why is Wu An unwilling to reconcile?"

Li Xue shook her head.

She didn't want to mention that person's name in front of Shen Fang again. Yesterday, she blurted it out, and Shen Fang pretended to be strong, but ended up crying all the way home.

Why are you crying?

It was all because of her comment, "Wu An has Gu Anran by his side now, you're no match for him."

Lies don't hurt people.

The truth is the sharpest knife.

Under these circumstances, how could she bear to rub salt into Shen Fang's wounds?

Just as he was lamenting the unpredictability of life, Mao Wang suddenly slammed his hand on the table and said, "I saw Wu An."

"Shen Fang, don't be upset."

“I’ll go ask Wu An right now why he won’t get back together with you.”

Li Xue quickly shouted, "Don't go!"

She admired Mao Wang, this warrior of pure love, but Mao Wang's pursuit of Wu An only brought him humiliation.

Mao Wang got up and went straight to the door.

Li Xue said anxiously, "Shen Fang, why didn't you stop her?"

Shen Fangyun said calmly, "What's there to stop me from doing?"
