Taxi at night

Chapter 43, Goodbye Komon

Xiaowen stood anxiously in the lobby of the hotel, looking out of the door from time to time, but the strange yet familiar man was still missing.

"It's been so long, I'm sure I won't stop coming." She put on her glasses again, thinking anxiously all the time, she really didn't have a clue.If she really can't invite her, she can only call the police for help. This is the worst and last resort.

There was a gurgling sound in her stomach. From last night until now, she didn't drink any rice, only drank water... Her whole body was covered with sweat, and she felt weak and sore in her calves, which was a sign of fainting.

There was a sofa with soft seats by the wall, she hurried over and sat down on it, feeling better immediately.

Lu Ren left his business behind and went straight to the hotel.He felt that he was too great. For a passenger, an irrelevant girl, he sacrificed both time and money, just for the word "good guy" in other people's mouths.

Walking into the lobby of the hotel, one can see Xiao Wen almost slumped on the sofa at a glance.

"Master, you are here." Xiaowen mustered up strength, stood up a little limply, took a few steps forward, staggered and almost fell.

"Be careful." Lu Ren quickly reached out and grabbed her in time, and after standing firmly, he asked suspiciously, "I haven't eaten a meal, so it's not like this."

"When I was resting last night, I realized that I had bruised my body and legs. As long as I moved, my whole body was sore."

"Is the injury not serious?" It turned out that it was not just because of hunger, but also because of the fall last night. Lu Ren put away his scornful expression and asked her with concern.

"Let me check it, it's considered a slight injury, and it should be fine after a couple of days of rest." Xiao Wen wrinkled his forehead and said with a wry smile.

"Let's eat first, and we'll talk about other things later." Lu Ren looked at the girl from side to side, and felt that the possibility of being cheated was less, so he walked out of the hall first, and led Xiaowen to the street for breakfast.

While the girl was eating, Lu Ren asked for Xiaowen's mobile phone card, put it into his mobile phone, found out the number, and then made a call.

"How about it, can't you get through?" Xiaowen asked with a little disappointment while lowering his head to drink the soup while observing the situation beside him for a long time.

"What's your aunt doing? It's so difficult to get through on the phone." Lu Ren suffered from headaches, and there was a sense of resentment in his words.Half of this resentment is directed at Xiaowen and his relatives, and the other half is angry at himself.

"Farmer. Now the land has been requisitioned, and they are said to be working nearby." Xiaowen shrank back and glanced subconsciously, a little timidly.

"I think it's better to ask the police for help. Xiaowen, wait a moment, and I'll take you there so that you won't find a place."

"Hmm..." The girl also saw what Lu Ren meant. She was reluctant to come here this time, and if she made some excessive demands, she might just walk away on the spot and ignore her.

The whole city is divided into four sub-bureaus according to the blocks. Aunt Xiaowen's house should be under the jurisdiction of the Western Sub-bureau. After a little thought, Lu Ren was going to go straight there.

Xiaowen followed Lu Ren, walking awkwardly. When a discerning person saw it, he immediately judged that he was either born with a disability or suffered from a hidden disease. Walking on the street would inevitably be a bit of an eyesore, and people would watch him from time to time.

Walking to the place where Lu Ren parked, a fat woman wearing a health sign suddenly ran up to Xiao Wen, and shouted in surprise and joy: "Wen Wen, why did you come here?"

Xiaowen looked up, and was suddenly ecstatic, hugged the fat woman's arm, and replied with a trembling voice: "Auntie, I wanted to find you last night, but I couldn't find you..." Before finishing speaking, The eye circles were red, and there was a hazy mist in the eye sockets. This trip to relatives was really hard and hard.

"Oh, Wenwen, don't cry, you've found it!" Seeing this, the fat woman became flustered, and hurriedly comforted Xiaowen with warm words.

Lu Ren was dumbfounded as he watched from the sidelines, and he couldn't help but secretly think that small cities also have their advantages, and the chances of meeting acquaintances are still very high.If this is placed in big cities like Beijing and Shanghai, it is expected that such a chance encounter may be hundreds of times more difficult than winning the lottery jackpot.

"You child, why didn't you want to make a phone call when you came? You came as soon as you said it. You are such a grown-up, and you are still so reckless in doing things." , The fat woman's face immediately changed, and she began to blame.

"I also came here on a whim... just thinking about you." The girl faltered and couldn't continue, she took a sneak peek at Lu Ren, who was standing by the side smiling and saying nothing, showing an embarrassed expression.

The fat woman immediately noticed the change on the girl's face, looked back at Lu Ren, moved closer to the girl, and asked in a low voice, "Who is this young man? I saw you two walking together just now. Is he a new boyfriend?"

"Auntie, how can you say that? He is...he is a friend." Xiaowen blushed suddenly, showing a bit of shyness, and she didn't remember until this time that she never asked his name.

"Friend? Are you lying to me? Here, when did you get a boyfriend who drives a taxi?" The fat woman raised her voice, as if on purpose, and she immediately denied it based on her habitual thinking. What the girl said made me more curious.

"What a friend. I'll tell you later, okay? Auntie, do you have any money in your pocket?"

"Yes, not many."

"Lend me a little for now, I still owe this master some money."

Lu Ren heard the latter words clearly, and immediately opened his mouth and said, "Xiaowen, let's forget about the money. Since you have found relatives, I think I should go too. See you later."

Before the two could react, Lu Ren had already returned to the car, started the car, and quickly disappeared into the street.

In fact, for Lu Ren, the little trouble was finally resolved, and this was something to be happy about.As for the lost tens of dollars, if it had been left in the past, he would definitely get it back with peace of mind, instead of walking away indifferently like now.

He didn't understand why he had such a reaction?Just thought of it and said so.

People are weird sometimes, aren't they?
Today's business was a bit dull, and Lu Ren was not rewarded for his good deeds.When it was time to collect the car and go home, it didn't bring him any unexpected surprises.

However, at the Great South Gate Night Market, he met Tang Xue who was singing again. The two looked at each other silently, each busy with their own business.

After learning about Tang Xue's life experience, Lu Ren knew that she sang here not only to make money, but more out of her love for music, and wanted to beat and hone herself on a wider stage.This is a girl with ideas and personality, and he is proud and proud of her.

Lu Ren quickly picked up a passenger near Tang Xue, and left in a hurry without saying goodbye.Ten minutes later, he received a text message from Tang Xue: Brother, why are you leaving?Can I sing well?

Lu Ren: Good.

Tang Xue: Just one, okay?
Lu Ren: Very good.

Tang Xue: Won't you say a few more compliments?Brother, you are so stupid, no wonder you can't find a girlfriend.

Lu Ren:? ? ?
Tang Xue: Don't you know that girls need to be coaxed? ...

Lu Ren: Someone got in the car, let's talk later.

Lu Ren couldn't stand it any longer. It was not such an honor to be ridiculed by a girl like this.
