Jiu Ge’s Beloved Spirit

When I came out of the office, it was already dark.

It's not the normal darkness that comes when night falls, it's the kind of darkness that comes when the wind comes and the dark clouds come.

It's usually around five o'clock in the afternoon, when the sun is still halfway down, and it's time for the bright and soft sunset to decorate the entire sky.

But today - the weather is not very good, it seems like heavy rain is coming.

The sky outside was as dark as an abyss, and frightening lights flashed from time to time.

Even though it hadn't rained yet, there was already thunder in the sky.

There was a heavy rumbling sound, as if a punch had hit the giant's chest, and the thunder was buzzing continuously.

After packing her things, Yun Si picked up the water glass on the table and took a sip.

It was so dark outside the window that almost all the scenery could no longer be seen. Next to her, Ning Xuan, who was busy writing papers, raised her head and took a look outside.

Visibly irritable.

"It's going to rain again, ah, bother! I didn't bring an umbrella."

Yun Si looked at her, thought for a moment, took out the umbrella from the drawer, and handed it over, "You can use mine. I'm leaving now. I should be able to get home before it rains."

Ning Xuan was a little flattered, "Really? Don't you need it? It looks like it's going to rain soon -"

"Yes." Yun Si carried her bag on one shoulder and patted her, "Work hard and hold on."

"Ah..." Ning Xuan's face fell when she thought of the paper.

"Let's go, bye."

The dark clouds became thicker and thicker, and the rumbling thunder became louder and louder. Yun Si carried her bag and went downstairs.

"Ding--"

There is a new message on the phone about the red rainstorm warning.

It's heavy rain again, the highest level of heavy rain warning.

This means it is not advisable to go out for the next few hours.

It was the weekend, and Yun Si had originally planned to go to the supermarket to replenish supplies.

It seemed that it was too late now. After leaving the door of the laboratory building, Yun Si raised her head and looked at the sky filled with dark clouds.

"Bata——"

A drop of water, I don't know when, fell to the ground.

Like the last trumpet blowing before the rainstorm -

The horn sounded, and soon the water poured out.

Yun Sifang walked a few steps and felt the rain falling from the sky, so she was about to run away.

Suddenly, an umbrella came from behind.

"Senior sister." A clean and gentle male voice sounded, gently amid the sound of rain, "It's raining, didn't you bring an umbrella?"

"Where are you going? Shall I see you off?"

Yun Si stopped and turned around. Seeing that she was a junior fellow student she knew from the same laboratory, she smiled politely and said, "It's okay, no need. It's just a few steps away. I won't bother you."

The young, clear and handsome junior brother seemed to have guessed what she would say. He tilted the umbrella to her side, looking obedient and considerate.

"It's okay, senior, no trouble, I just want to go out too."

"Senior, you should go out through the south gate, right? I'm about to pass by there too, so why don't I take you, senior, to the convenience store outside the south gate. There should be an umbrella seller in the convenience store, but you don't have an umbrella, senior." If so, you can just buy it there.”

"This way, senior, you can avoid getting wet for a while." The junior pointed to the outside of the umbrella, "The rain is too heavy. If you go out in the rain, you will get wet soon."

"..." He was thoughtful.

No wonder Ning Xuan always told her that this junior brother was a good person, good-tempered and willing to help others.

Yun Si thought for a while, then looked at the rain that was getting heavier and heavier.

"Then... I'll excuse you." She said politely, "Thank you."

The junior brother looked at her and smiled a little shyly, "It's okay, it's just a little effort." (End of Chapter)
