Chapter 79 Staying Overnight
Shen Ruoyun put the last piece of bone in the bowl into her mouth.
Take the bowls and chopsticks to the kitchen, wash them, and put them away.
He wiped the water off his hands and let out a burp almost imperceptibly.
He turned around to go find Lin Shuyan to get his things.
Suddenly, I heard the sound of rain falling outside, and instinctively I pushed the door open and went outside.
As soon as I opened the door, I saw Lin Shuyan's figure.
He was wearing a large black raincoat.
He was holding a roll of transparent plastic film tightly in his hand, stretching it out towards the camellia tree.
Raindrops gently pattered on the roof tiles, making a series of crisp, rhythmic sounds.
It was already dark outside, and the rain was damp and cold.
The sudden rain made everything around us blurry.
Only the faint light from under the eaves shone through the rain, dimly illuminating the scene before us.
The ground in the yard was completely submerged by rainwater, forming small streams of water.
The rapid flow of water washed over the broken flowers on the ground, pushing them to the corners and edges.
Seeing this, Shen Ruoyun quickly stepped forward to help.
He picked up a thin wooden stick under the eaves and hurried toward Lin Shuyan.
This tea tree does look quite old, and it's naturally quite tall.
After fiddling around for quite a while, Lin Shuyan and Shen Ruoyun were finally able to cover most of the tree canopy.
Lin Shuyan turned around and carried several pots of orchids from the courtyard to the corridor.
Shen Ruojun was about to step forward and lend a hand.
However, before he could make a move, Lin Shuyan stopped him.
"I'll take care of it, just don't catch a cold."
Upon hearing what the other person said, Shen Ruoyun didn't try to be brave and obediently stood under the eaves watching Lin Yanshu busy himself.
Because the original owner had been mistreated in the past, although Shen Ruoyun was very good at fighting, her physical fitness was not very good.
It will take a long time to heal slowly.
My phone vibrated twice, so I took it out and looked at it.
It was actually sent by Lu Yan.
There were also messages from the God of Wealth that I don't know when they came in.
It's probably because the internet connection in this area isn't very good, causing a slight delay.
Lu Yan: What was your porridge recipe last time?
Shen Ruoyun thought for a moment and immediately sent a long voice message, explaining the general procedure.
Then, I opened Qin Chuhuai's WeChat.
Qin Chuhuai: Have you eaten yet? Want to duo queue tonight? [Cat peeks in]
Qin Chuhuai: Are you busy? Why aren't you replying to my messages? [Cat's puzzled expression]
Qin Chuhuai: Then you go ahead and get busy.
Qin Chuhuai: Are you done with your work now? Can I log in now?
A transfer of 10,000 yuan from Qin Chuhuai
Shen Ruojun now has immense patience with this internet-addicted money-making machine.
Even if the other party were to kill and bury the body, he would probably still eagerly offer to hand them a shovel.
Shen Ruoyun: Have you eaten? I'm not going to the hospital tonight, I have something to do.
As soon as I sent it, the other party replied instantly, as if they were waiting for it.
Qin Chuhuai: I haven't eaten yet. (??w??)??
I glanced at the time; it was almost eight o'clock.
We should still maintain a basic level of concern for the God of Wealth.
Shen Ruoyun: Then hurry up and eat, don't starve to death.
Qin Chuhuai: Okay, I'll go eat now. [Cat stickers]
Looking at the cute cat emoji, Shen Ruoyun thought to herself that this God of Wealth actually has a girlish heart.
Lin Yanshu moved all the flowerpots and took off his dripping raincoat, hanging it against the wall.
He took two dry towels from inside the house and handed one to Shen Ruojun.
He casually took off his glasses and put them aside.
"Dry your hair, it's easy to catch a cold if it's wet," Lin Yanshu said while drying her hair.
Shen Ruoyun took the towel, gently dried her hair, and put her phone in her pocket.
Looking up at the rain outside, I figured it would rain for quite a while.
I doubt a taxi can get through here, so I'll have to borrow an umbrella from Lin Yanshu to go back later.
Turning to Lin Yanshu, she said, "I'm going back now. Thank you for treating me to dinner today. I'll treat you to hot pot next time."
Shen Ruoyun is drawing hot pot pancakes again.
Lin Yanshu wiped his glasses, put them back on, and glanced at the sky.
"I have a spare room here. It's not safe for an omega like you to walk alone at night."
Shen Ruoyun: "...", it seems she's not wrong.
"Ah... well... actually I'm not an omega, I'm an alpha."
As she said this, Shen Ruoyun blinked frantically, pretending to look at the little flying insects on the light bulb.
Lin Yanshu's hand movements visibly froze for a moment, and his expression showed a hint of apology.
"I'm sorry, I was just assuming things."
Shen Ruoyun, with her hands in her pockets, said without batting an eye.
"It's okay, people often admit their mistakes, I don't mind."
Lin Yanshu folded the towel in his hand, held it in his hand, and looked at Shen Ruoyun.
"But even alphas need to protect themselves."
A person with a discerning eye won't care about your gender.
Just as Shen Ruoyun was about to say something, the director suddenly called.
"Hey... Director."
"Junjun, it's raining so hard, did you bring an umbrella?"
Shen Ruoyun picked at the hangnail on her fingernail and moved to the side.
"No, I forgot because I ran over so fast."
"Oh, is that so? Do you want me to pick you up?"
The director's voice sounded somewhat tired when he said this.
Shen Ruojun naturally didn't want to trouble others, so she refused immediately.
"No need, I can walk back myself."
Upon hearing this, the director sighed on the other end of the phone.
After a moment of silence, he slowly spoke.
"Junjun, given our circumstances, we shouldn't be wandering around outside at night, okay?"
It wouldn't be good if it made the news.
"The director is fine, I'm not afraid of them."
A long silence…
"I mean, we should give these delinquents a chance to live. They don't deserve to die..."
Shen Ruoyun: "..."
She turned to look at Lin Yanshu, her expression slightly embarrassed.
"Then... how do I..."
"How about this, you can stay at Yanshu's place for one night."
Besides, last time was... ah... it's okay... just stay here for now, be a good boy/girl!
Lin Yanshu also vaguely heard the director's words and nodded to Shen Ruoyun.
Shen Ruoyun hesitated for a moment, but finally agreed.
After all, the director has said so, so it would seem pretentious to refuse.
Lin Yanshu turned around, went into the room, and took a set of clean clothes, handing them to Shen Ruojun.
"Why don't you take a shower and change your clothes first?"
Shen Ruoyun took the clothes, thanked her quietly, and went into the bathroom.
After taking a shower, I found Lin Yanshu reading a book.
Lin Yanshu didn't live here often, so she didn't have any extra pajamas.
Shen Ruoyun was wearing a large white shirt by Lin Yanshu on her upper body.
It looked like a child wearing an adult's clothes, with their entire bottom covered and dangling loosely.
The pants were so big they were practically bottomless, so he had to hold them up tightly with both hands at the waist.
The trouser legs were bunched up at the ankles, almost dragging on the ground.
However, his clothes were just wet, so it was obviously unlikely that he would sleep in them.
When Lin Shuyan saw him, he put down the book "Collection of Poems by Tsangyang Gyatso" and waved to him.
Seeing the roasted oranges on the small charcoal stove in front of him, Shen Ruoyun obediently walked quickly toward him.
As a result, his left foot landed directly on his right trouser leg, causing him to stumble and fall forward.
