    Xia Wancheng wiped the sweat from her forehead and neck with a handkerchief. After her breathing gradually subsided, she knocked on the door in front of her.

    Xia Wancheng could hear the bustling movement inside the door, but the people inside didn't seem to respond to her knocking.  So Xia Wancheng intensified the intensity of knocking on the door.

    Half a minute later, the door in front of her was opened, and a soaked Zhong Lu appeared at the door, with a face full of surprise.

    Xia Wancheng was also surprised by her current state.  She glanced into the room and saw Xu Xingzhi, who was also soaked and holding a wrench in his hand.

    Xu Xingzhi turned his back to her, standing in the living room with serious water accumulation. When he heard the movement, he asked: "Is the master here?"

    Without waiting for an answer, he turned around and saw Xia Wancheng.

    Xia Wancheng watched as Xu Xingzhi's facial expression changed from curious and relaxed at the beginning to cold as ice.

    Zhong Lu¡¯s voice sounded at the right time: ¡°The water pipe in my house is broken, water has been leaking, and it has not been repaired.¡±

    Having said this, Zhong Lu turned to Xu Xingzhi and said, "Forget it, close the water gate first and wait until the master comes."

    Zhong Lu looked at Xia Wancheng and asked, "What's the matter?"

    "I was just passing by, so I came up to see you."

    Zhong Lu looked embarrassed, "My house is like this nowit's not convenient to entertain you."

    Xia Wancheng expressed her understanding and said, "Then I'll come visit you next time."

    ?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????

    Zhong Lu turned around and said to Xu Xingzhi: "It's raining too much. Can I go to your house and sit for a while?"

    Xu Xingzhi was speechless and just walked out of the house.

    Xia Wancheng wondered aloud: "Where is his home?"

    Zhong Lu locked the door and said casually: "Downstairs."

    ¡­¡­

    She didn¡¯t find it too difficult when she went upstairs. It wasn¡¯t until she was about to go downstairs that Xia Wancheng realized how troublesome her plaster leg was.

    Because she was wearing a floor-length skirt, her plastered foot had been hidden under the hem of the skirt before, so Zhong Lu didn¡¯t notice it until now and said in surprise: ¡°Your foot isn¡¯t healed yet?¡±

    "It will take some time."

    "Then how did you get up here before?"

    Zhong Lu was surprised and hesitated on how to help her.  Xia Wancheng waved her hand and said, "I can just hold on to the handrail and go down slowly. Maybe the rain will stop by the time I get down there."

    "This is alsothis handrail is in disrepair for a long time. Don't look back and let it happen again. Just wait, I'll ask Xu Xingzhi what to do."

    ????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????¡­

    When Xia Wancheng struggled to move down the three steps, Xu Xingzhi, who had changed his clothes, reappeared.

    He didn¡¯t say a word, didn¡¯t even look at Xia Wancheng, only bowed slightly and hugged Xia Wancheng.

    Under this situation, it would be pretentious to say any more unnecessary words, so Xia Wancheng just thanked her politely.

    Xu Xingzhi walked steadily down the stairs, and after walking down a few floors, Xia Wancheng saw Zhong Lu waiting in front of the fingerprint code door, helping Xu Xingzhi put her down.

    Xu Xingzhi, who said he wanted to sell his house, did not move out. Instead, he renovated the house.

    Xia Wancheng carefully walked inside and saw that most of the layout inside had changed. The balcony had become larger and more spacious, and the lighting in the whole room was much brighter than before.

    Xia Wancheng sat down on the sofa and watched the beautiful ragdoll cat carefully jump to her side, looked at her with a pair of curious eyes, and then slapped the back of her hand.

    Zhong Lu said from the side: "She thinks you are a stranger."

    Xia Wancheng cursed this bastard in his heart.  I didn¡¯t know how many canned snacks I ate before, but now I don¡¯t recognize anyone anymore.

    Xia Wancheng took out the snacks she had brought, and sat on the sofa with Zhong Lu, chatting.  Xu Xingzhi, fearing to avoid it, took the cat to a corner alone.

    The rain outside showed no sign of letting up at all, and lightning exploded into purple light in the clouds, looking like a scene from some fantasy movie.

    Xia Wancheng sat with her back to the balcony. Whenever the wind blew, a damp and cold feeling would penetrate into her body.  After a while, she felt a dull pain in many joints in her body.

    The weather forecast for yesterday and today was not accurate.The heavy rain was forecast, which directly led to Xia Wancheng not taking measures to keep warm in advance.  Now when the wind blew, her body felt cold and painful.

    Xia Wancheng endured it for a moment, then asked aloud: "Can you close the window?"

    Zhong Lu said: "I have rhinitis, and the air is not good with the windows closed."

    Xia Wancheng nodded in understanding, and then moved to a place with less wind.

    Since that car accident, Xia Wancheng has been paying close attention to the weather conditions.  The direct feeling brought to her by the heavy rain now is obvious pain in her body.

    At this moment, Xia Wancheng just wants to go to a warm place to stay.

    But the rain didn¡¯t stop. Gradually, the feeling of contraction and squeezing in Xia Wancheng¡¯s body became more and more obvious, and the injured bones started to make a fuss to show their presence.

    Zhong Lu noticed her ugly expression at this moment and asked, "Are you feeling uncomfortable in any way?"

    Xia Wancheng was just waiting to speak when the phone rang.  Xia Zaogan called her to ask about her current situation, and told her not to catch cold or wind and to take medicine in time.

    Xia Wancheng asked in a low voice angrily: "Can you come pick me up?"

    After hanging up the phone, Xia Wancheng heard Zhong Lu ask her: "Who is coming to pick you up?"

    "My sister."

    "But it's raining heavily outside." Zhong Lu said, "Would this be too much trouble? Maybe we can wait until the rain stops."

    Xia Wancheng was just about to say that Xia Zaogan was going to bring her medicine when she heard Xu Xingzhi say: "It doesn't matter, Miss Xia always likes to trouble others."

    Xia Wancheng was silent for a while and said, "My sister is not someone else."

    "Indeed, the people around you should be used to it."

    Xia Wancheng nodded, stood up slowly, and said, "Sorry for bothering me."

    The moment she pushed the door open, the coldness and moisture in the stairwell hit her face, causing Xia Wancheng to gasp immediately.

    "etc."

    Xu Xingzhi¡¯s voice sounded from behind, so Xia Wancheng paused and turned around.

    Xu Xingzhi handed her the things in his hand and said, "Things you brought."

    That was the dessert packaging box that she was going to give to Zhong Lu, but it had been eaten just now.

    Xia Wancheng took the thing and carefully moved it down while holding on to the handrail.

    After taking a few steps, Xia Wancheng stopped due to lack of strength.  She rested on her knees, not daring to look back.

    She felt that her back at this moment must be very embarrassed and embarrassed.

    Xia Wancheng has never lost her composure in front of others.  As long as she is awake, Xia Wancheng is invincible.

    But now, the cracks are spreading bit by bit from her body and bones, almost destroying the mask on her face.

    So she had to walk quickly before the mask fell off.

    As she slowly descended to the next step, Xia Wancheng only heard a little movement from the handrail under her hand.  Before she could react, the situation that Zhong Lu said was in disrepair appeared.

    Xia Wancheng couldn't stand firm for a moment because she stumbled and fell to the ground.  She only heard a dull sound in her ears, and then there was severe pain in her feet.

    Zhong Lu saw this scene in his eyes and said blankly: "Your plaster is broken." (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
