Li Rui rushed downstairs and saw that the sky was still dark, but it wasn't raining. He looked around and saw a mobile phone store nearby. He walked in and pretended to buy a phone while waiting for Huang Weining to get off work.
He waited for nearly an hour until it was six o 'clock. Huang Weining finally came downstairs to call him. At this time, the rain finally fell, but it wasn't heavy. It seemed like there was a storm waiting to happen.
Li Rui sat in Huang Weining's BMW X6 and changed seats with her. They drove on the road and looked for a restaurant. After asking for Miss Huang's permission, they found a Hong Kong-style restaurant to eat.
Because they were in public, Huang Weining was very strict. Occasionally, she would smile, but it disappeared quickly. During the meal, she didn't joke with Li Rui. If they weren't talking about work, they were eating.
Li Rui also learned about Yang Chao's recent performance from her. Unexpectedly, Yang Chao, who used to be a second wife, was very active in Huayun Group. Her performance was very eye-catching. Although she made a lot of mistakes at work, her improvement was very obvious. She did her job as the head of the administrative department very well. Of course, Huang Weining and Jiang Meixian also tried their best to help her. They gave her all kinds of opportunities to learn and improve, so that she could grow quickly through all kinds of training.
After hearing this, Li Rui completely stopped worrying about Yang Chao. He knew that this woman was more or less transformed by him. As long as there weren't any big changes, she would eventually become an outstanding woman.
After the meal, it was only seven o 'clock. The rain outside had turned into a downpour. This kind of weather was naturally not suitable for outdoor activities. Moreover, Li Rui didn't plan to do other activities with Huang Weining, such as singing or watching movies. Huang Weining also wanted Li Rui to go home to see his two goddaughters, so the two of them decided to go home.
Li Rui still drove while Huang Weining sat in the front passenger seat. They rushed home in the rain.
At this time, the rain was extremely heavy. It was as if someone was pouring water from the sky. The windshield wipers couldn't handle it at all. There was a layer of rain on the windshield of the car. It was blurry and nothing could be seen clearly. In this kind of rain, not to mention driving, even walking would not be able to see the situation in front of them.
Li Rui didn't dare to drive too fast. Learning from other cars, he turned on the fog lights and double flashing lights, and moved forward at an idle speed. It was much slower than a bicycle, and he hoped that the rain would lessen.
But who would have thought that this rain would continue for half an hour. Not only did it not lessen, it seemed to continue to increase. What was even more frightening was that Li Rui drove down a downhill road. At the bottom of the slope was an underground bridge. Because of the heavy rainfall and the old drainage system, the water under the bridge naturally began to accumulate. The water rose quickly and soon reached the bottom of the car door. A white car drove to the bottom of the slope. Seeing that the door was starting to get wet, it didn't dare to drive forward anymore. It hurriedly turned sideways and wanted to drive away.
In recent years, news of people drowning in cars when it rained in the city was common. Moreover, even if they didn't drown, it wouldn't be good if the engine was flooded. Many drivers knew the principle of stopping when there was water.
It was fine for the car to turn sideways, but it blocked the two lanes of cars behind it. It couldn't turn sideways, and the cars behind it couldn't drive to the front. It immediately formed a jam. Li Rui's car was five or six meters behind the car. It was only separated by one car, so it was naturally blocked. Seeing that the rain was pouring down, the water was getting deeper and deeper. Soon, it reached the car's window. The driver was so scared that he got out of the car and ran back to the slope.
Huang Weining's car was also flooded by the water. Fortunately, the door was tightly sealed, and the water couldn't seep in for a while. But in the long run, the water would definitely seep in little by little due to the pressure. What was even more frightening was that once the water reached the door, the door wouldn't be able to open because of the water pressure. At that time, Li Rui and Huang Weining would very likely drown in the car. This kind of tragedy didn't happen only once or twice. It happened from time to time in domestic cities during the rainy season.
Li Rui made a prompt decision and turned off the car. He turned to Huang Weining and said, "We can't wait any longer. We have to get out of the car immediately and find a higher place to take shelter from the rain."
Huang Weining asked anxiously, "What about the car?"
Li Rui said, "We can't take care of the car anymore. Besides, the car won't be a big problem. I've already turned off the engine. You should be fine if you're covered by wading insurance. Hurry up and get out of the car. "After saying that, he pushed the door with his hand.
At this time, the water had already reached one-fifth of the car's height. Li Rui used a lot of strength to push the door open a gap. The rushing water outside crazily rushed in and instantly flooded the cabin below the driver's seat.
Li Rui didn't dare to be negligent. He quickly got out of the car and didn't have time to open an umbrella. He went to the front passenger's door and cooperated with Huang Weining to open the door. Similarly, as soon as the door was opened, the dirty brown water poured in.
Huang Weining was caught off guard. Her feet, which were leaning on the cushion, were already covered by the water in her high heels. She hurriedly turned sideways and hung her feet on the seat. She looked at the two-foot-high water outside the car in surprise and shouted, "It's so much water. How can we get in?"
Li Rui stood outside for less than ten seconds. His body was completely drenched by the rain. He wiped the rain on his face with his hand and shouted, "Just get out."
"But … the water is so dirty!" Huang Weining said with a painful expression.
The accumulated water was indeed very dirty. With the help of the street lights, one could see that it was a mixture of black and yellow sand, withered leaves, yellow cigarette butts, messy plastic bags, and white foam. It made people lose their appetite at first sight, let alone a woman who liked cleanliness by nature.
Li Rui didn't know whether to laugh or cry and said, "Dirty? Do you think this is a swimming pool? You want clean water? Come on, sister. "
Huang Weining shook her head timidly. It seemed that even a strong and beautiful CEO like her was afraid of something.
Li Rui thought for a moment and sighed, "How about this? I'll carry you out. You can use the umbrella on your head. "
Huang Weining had no other choice. She could only listen to him and said, "Okay …" As she spoke, she picked up the green foldable umbrella beside her. She didn't open it for the time being because it couldn't be opened in the car.
Li Rui turned around and squatted at the car door. He gestured for her to climb up. However, the car door was narrow and low. Huang Weining was sitting on the seat. Her waist couldn't exert any strength, so she couldn't climb up on his back no matter how many times she tried.
Li Rui saw that more and more water was pouring into the car. It was about to reach the seat. In a panic, he turned around and grabbed her knees with one hand and her back with the other. With a yell from his waist, he actually carried her out of the car.
"Ah, my shoe fell off, my shoe fell off!"
Before Li Rui could feel the warmth of her body, Huang Weining suddenly cried out in alarm.
Li Rui lowered his head to look. Indeed, the high heel on her left foot had already fallen into the water. It was bobbing up and down in the water. Her bare foot with stockings was raised in mid-air. However, he still had to carry the beauty in his arms. How could he have a third hand to grab that shoe back?
"Can you not?" He asked tentatively.
Huang Weining hesitated for a moment and said, "Okay, but then you'll have to carry me the whole time."
Li Rui pursed his lips. He turned around and walked up the slope. He said casually, "Don't you still have a shoe?"
Huang Weining groaned and said, "How can you walk with a shoe?"
Li Rui looked down and saw her cramped in his arms. Half of her hair was wet. She held an umbrella with one hand. Her beautiful face looked shy and angry. Her eyes were as beautiful as the stars as she looked at him. She looked beautiful and charming. Just looking at her gave birth to a trace of charm in his heart.
Huang Weining saw that he was staring at her. She was embarrassed and angrily said, "What are you looking at? Watch where you're going. If you dare to throw me into the water, I won't forgive you."
Li Rui deliberately teased her and said, "Oh, you dare to threaten me when I'm carrying you. I'll throw you into the water right now. Let's see how you won't forgive me." He pretended to throw her.
Just as he was about to throw her, Huang Weining was shocked. She hurriedly hugged his waist with her left arm and shouted, "Don't …"
Li Rui smiled and said, "That's right. Women should be more obedient."
Huang Weining fiercely glared at him but didn't dare to say anything. There was a resentful smile on her red lips. It wasn't clear whether she was proud or depressed.
The two bickered as they walked. Soon, they blended into the crowd of people.
A white-haired old man wearing a singlet and shorts praised, "Young man, you're not bad. You know how to take care of your wife when it's raining."
Another girl twisted the ear of a boy next to her and said fiercely, "Look at how much he dotes on his girlfriend. He's afraid that she'll fall into the water and he'll hug her. What about you? You let me chase after you. Is this how you should be my boyfriend?"
The boy was scolded in public. He was angry and embarrassed, but he couldn't refute. He could only vent his anger on Li Rui and fiercely stared at him.
Li Rui heard this and whispered to Huang Weining in his arms, "Are you happy?"
Huang Weining was misunderstood by passersby that they were in a relationship. Her face was already red from embarrassment. When she heard his ambiguous words, she blushed even more. She pretended not to understand and asked, "What do you mean? Happy?"
Li Rui smiled and said, "I dote on you so much. Shouldn't you be happy?"
Just as he finished speaking, a delicate hand had already gently pinched his waist. He grimaced in pain and asked, "Why did you pinch me?"
Huang Weining held back her laughter and said, "I dote on you too. Are you happy?"
Li Rui didn't know whether to laugh or cry and said, "I dote on you because I love you. You hurt me because you hurt me. How can it be the same?"
Huang Weining said, "It hurts anyway. What's the difference?" She turned her beautiful eyes and didn't look at him, but the corners of her mouth were still smiling.
