Volume 1 Hello, Lu Mingfei Chapter 14 Lu Mingfei (I)
Typhoon Dandelion No. 0407 made landfall in this city, bringing heavy rain and force 10 gale, and the city was closed for three days.
The passage of the typhoon brought a lot of trouble. For example, although the elevated road was closed in time, some drivers still drove on it. In the end, the wind speed was so high that they dared not drive anymore. The cars were buzzing and seemed to be flying. The police cars could not go up to pick them up, so they had to contact them by phone and asked them to gather as much as possible, stop by the guardrail on the side of the road, lean on each other, close the windows, and endure the storm all night.
Thanks to this measure, no car was overturned by the hurricane, but the paint was scraped as if it had been welded, and water entered the engine. Because there was a little human factor, the warranty company's claim price would not be very high. The wind speed dropped early in the morning, and the tow truck drove onto the elevated road to tow out the cars one by one. Everyone who was rescued felt like they had been pardoned. It didn't matter if the car was damaged, but it was a blessing to be alive. Surviving death was better than anything else.
The elevated road exit was filled with relatives who had been waiting there since early morning, watching the drivers return safely on the elevated road, the young people hugging and kissing each other passionately, and the old men and women with tears in their eyes. The so-called feelings always seem extremely sincere in the face of life and death.
Finally, the people guarding the exit left one by one, leaving only a boy and a girl. They didn't have an umbrella, so the police kindly gave them one, because the two children had been standing there for most of the night, standing with the police since early last night.
The boy was soaked through, staring at the elevated road. Every time a car was pulled down, he would take a closer look at the people in the car. The police couldn't help but wonder if he couldn't recognize his own car? The boy looked quite rich, but he was probably frozen stupid.
Cars came down one after another, and the boy just stared at them. The girl held an umbrella for him, as if she would never get tired, and she never changed hands holding the umbrella.
What a touching couple. The question is who are they waiting for? All the tow trucks have begun to gather. The news from the elevated road said that all rescue operations have been completed and the area has been cleared. The police turned off the intercom, took a last look at the couple, and prepared to leave.
"Is there no one else?" the boy walked up to him and asked softly.
"No, they've all been cleared." The police said, "Didn't you find your family? Don't worry, we rescued everyone on the elevated road. Some didn't leave from this exit. No one was injured. Everyone is safe. If you didn't meet them, you must have missed them. Go home and check. The person you're waiting for may be resting in bed right now."
It seemed as if some light had gone out in the boy's eyes. After a long silence, he slowly squatted down, supporting himself on the ground with his hands, without saying a word.
Lu Mingfei also squatted down silently, trying her best to cover her brother's head with the umbrella.
Nothing needs to be said, but it is more frightening than anything else. The worst result still happened. What happened on the elevated road, including all the Deadpools and Odin, seemed to be just a dream that existed only between her, Chu Zihang, and Chu Tianjiao. It was useless to ask the police for help. Chu Tianjiao was right. No one would believe it. Everyone would just treat them as fools.
She opened her mouth, wanting to say something comforting. She was usually so talkative and full of bad intentions, but now she couldn't even utter a single appropriate word.
"Go home, brother..." Finally, she had to bring up Chu's mother, "You didn't hear from me all night, and I must be worried about you..."
She suddenly felt a little sad. Yes, there were still people who cared about Chu Zihang, but what about Chu Tianjiao? No one would remember what happened on the elevated road, so he insisted on keeping his son alive. Only if Chu Zihang was alive could he prove that he, Chu Tianjiao, had ever been in this world.
Chu Zihang ignored her. She was going to pull Chu Zihang's arm with a little force, but she suddenly stopped, not daring to do so. She clearly saw Chu Zihang's hands supporting the ground with his fingers bent into claws, digging deeply into the asphalt road. No high school boy could have such terrifying power. Lu Mingfei suddenly remembered what the man said, their bloodline was different from that of ordinary people. If you are curious about that, then go to a college called Kassel.
At nine o'clock in the morning, Lu Mingfei stepped into the empty corridor, staggering and swaying, like a puppet whose spring might run out at any time.
Chu Zihang, who was in a bad mental state, was sent back home by the taxi she stopped. Although he was extremely sad, the boy at least still had his wits about him and could tell the location of his home. At first, the driver was reluctant to pick up the two children who were soaking wet in the rain, but when Lu Mingfei told him the location of Chu Zihang's home, his expression immediately changed, and he was in awe. The name of that community is well-known in this city. Even a child on the street knows that the richest of the rich live there. What's the big deal about dirtying the car by carrying a soaking wet child? Maybe the child will even thank you! A tip is enough to run for several days!
There were still people who cared about her senior brother, but Lu Mingfei didn't. She didn't have any money to pay for the fare. If she dared to take a taxi back, her aunt would definitely face the high fare with a gloomy face and say that she would find a way to solve it. Then her already little pocket money would be reduced again.
So Lu Mingfei had to walk all the way back via the elevated road. Water had gotten into her school uniform shoes, which were rubbing so hard that she could tell there were blisters on them without even looking.
This is not the worst. A 15-year-old high school girl did not come home all night in a stormy night. Just these few sentences are enough to fill in a long article of several thousand words. With the brain circuit of my aunt, a housewife in menopause and the reasoning ability of watching idol ethics dramas, if Lu Mingfei dared to say that I was with Chu Zihang last night and that’s why I didn’t come back, she would probably be skinned today - although she is not my aunt’s biological child, my aunt still has the right to educate her.
Actually , if you insist, Lu Mingfei should have a certain status in this family. As a reward for her aunt to help take care of the children, her parents would give her a sum of money every month. Lu Mingfei didn't know the exact amount of that money, but thanks to that money, this ordinary family could afford to send two children to Shilan Middle School. It was also thanks to that money that her uncle drove a BMW and had the latest mobile phone, Aunt.
When you go out to buy groceries, you can wear a jade bracelet on your wrist.
If Lu Mingfei wanted to be more assertive, she could just stand with her hands on her hips and stand on the coffee table and say, "Half of the money in this family comes from my parents. I am your financial sponsor. Remember to be polite to me in the future!"
But she really didn't have the courage, because her aunt was an expert at quarreling and throwing tantrums. Even if Lu Mingfei held the truth in her hands, as long as her aunt said it, it was that I saved your money in a voucher and didn't spend it carelessly! What? You want to take a look? No, that's not possible. This is the money that our Lu family saved for Mingze to marry a wife. It's not that I don't believe you, but it's not the thing for a little girl to spy on other people's financial situation, right?
