A woman like Ode to Joy

When Fan Shengmei woke up in a daze, there was the sound of pattering rain, the sky was dark, and she was the only one in the car.And in this car, the refrigerator on the side was obviously still in Tan Zongming's car.

She looked around this strange environment, the sun was still shining just now and now it was getting dark, which made her wonder if she had overslept.She turned on her phone and checked the time.

16: 25.

this late……

But what about them?What about Tan Zongming and Andy?

Just as she was thinking about whether to get out of the car or make a call to Andy, the car door next to her was suddenly opened, and the pattering raindrops fell on her hands and stopped instantly.

She looked up, and the man was holding an umbrella above his head, and said in a deep voice, "Wake up."

Fan Shengmei took the bag and asked, "Where's Andy?" When he got out of the car and stood under the man's umbrella, he found a few familiar cars beside him, all of which were driven by Tan Zongming in the past.His eyes looked around again, with a sense of familiarity.She frowned.

"Xiao Bao always came back to Shanghai, and Andy had already left when you fell asleep." Tan Zongming carefully held an umbrella to cover her shoulders.

Um?so what?

She's the only one left?

"Where is this place? How do you look at it? It looks so familiar?" Surrounded by lush greenery, there are red flowers and green fields, and crisp birdsong can be heard from time to time in the rain. The path is winding, the breeze is humid, and the air carries a fresh earth fragrance.

Fan Shengmei followed his pace and walked in, looking at it as she walked, the more she looked at it, the more she felt familiar.Especially the green forests on both sides of the road, the memory is floating but not easy to capture.

Standing by the front door was a white-haired old man in a suit with a bow tie, wearing glasses, smiling and squinting, and nodded slightly when he saw her looking over.

She felt a little uneasy, but she knew that Tan Zongming would not bring her to any strange place, so she had to follow him.

When the two walked to the gate, Tan Zongming took the umbrella and handed it to each other, and said in a low voice, "My house."

Fan Shengmei hadn't heard what he said clearly, she asked with her eyes, what?

Tan Zongming looked at her messy hair with the corners of his lips curled up, wanting to brush away the thin strands beside her cheeks, stared at her big eyes and repeated with good temper, "This is my home, haven't you been here before? "The next second he saw that her eyes were fixed, then flickered a few times, and then turned his head to look around several times, with an unbelievable expression on his face, a frown, and gradually a trace of embarrassment and timidity.

"You, why did you bring me here?" Fan Shengmei stood still.

Tan Zongming took the change in her expression into his eyes, "I saw you fell asleep, and the gate of your neighborhood was too noisy. I was afraid of disturbing you to sleep, so I brought you here. Be quiet, and you can sleep well."

She suddenly remembered this place, it seemed that it was the first reception that Tang Qiu brought her here not long ago when she first joined the company.She was still standing here waiting for the bus, and the person in front of her was the one who sent her here.

Yes, this is the place.

It turned out to be his house...

"Remember?" Tan Zongming knew that she remembered when he saw her expression was somewhat clear.

It was okay not knowing this was his house at first, but now that I know it, I feel even more strange. "You, take me, what are you doing at your house?"

Seeing her like this, Tan Zongming knew that she was planning to leave again, and said in a gentle but unquestionable tone: "I have already asked Mama Liu and the others to prepare meals, even if you plan to leave, it will probably take a long time to send you out at this time I can't get there, and besides, it's raining heavily outside now, the weather forecast said that there will be heavy rain. So, I'll show you around first, and after dinner, the rain has subsided, and I'll take you back."

Fan Shengmei looked at the rain that was getting heavier and heavier outside, the gloomy sky, and estimated that the rain would really turn into a heavy rain in a while, and remembered the last time he sent her back to the community of Ode to Joy.

Well, every time this guy says something, he has a point.

Fan Shengmei couldn't think of a rebuttal.

Fan Shengmei came here once but only walked around within a limited area. Today, she followed Tan Zongming for a walk, and stepped on the lady's slippers that Tan Zongming asked her to put on, and followed the floor-to-ceiling windows to revel in the rain scene on the small lake outside. , It's really beautiful.

Such an environment and atmosphere had to make Fan Shengmei sigh that Tan Zongming would live.

A person's living room can see a lot of the person's attitude towards life and the quality of life.

Tan Zongming is undoubtedly a good player.

Next to the floor lamp, there are rows of bookshelves, a set of books arranged in an orderly manner, a list of Chinese and foreign classics, and piles of book titles that are unfamiliar to her.The long sofa is in front of the bookshelf, and it seems that the scene of the person leaning on the corner of the sofa with a book in his hands, drinking a cup of hot tea, and occasionally looking at the rainy scene outside the window, the scene of the faint book fragrance and the dense fragrance of tea can appear in his mind.

This kind of realm made her dare not even think about it.

She used to see the decoration in Qu Xiaoxiao's room, which made her envious, but now she looked around at the "luxury" decoration that showed the master's elegance and prudence, and she only had admiration and admiration in her heart.Envy is far from enough to express what she thinks.

Now, I would like to thank Tan Zongming for taking her through the experience and letting her know what real "richness" is like.

Tan Zongming took her past the place where the banquet was held last time, passing a familiar corner and told her to stop for a moment.Looking at the end of the road with one glance, the scene at that time was recalled in her mind, which still made her feel sad.

It was here that Wang Baichuan discovered her embarrassment, and also made her and Wang Baichuan strangers.

And him.

This man who looked at her quietly in front of her.

I don't know how he felt at that time, whether he looked down on her.

There should be.

Fan Shengmei didn't know whether she rejected Tan Zongming because of this level of problems.Thinking of Qu Lianjie's vicious words at that time, like the poisonous snake Xinzi licking her face with the disgust that made her scalp tingle, she was very scared, wanted to cry, and felt ashamed, and wanted to find a place to hide.So even though he helped her hide and conceal her embarrassment and vulnerability, she was still like a hedgehog, refusing his help, and even wanted to attack in words.

Now that I think about the man's speaking skills, he was still merciful at the time.

"What's wrong?" Tan Zongming asked.

Fan Shengmei turned her head and stopped looking, shook her head, "It's nothing."

Tan Zongming didn't ask any more questions, he glanced at the place and knew it in his heart.But seeing that she still cared, he led her away to the French window.

"Sit down on the sofa, what would you like to drink?"

Fan Shengmei didn't politely refuse, and sat down at the seat closest to the floor-to-ceiling windows.

"Let's boil the water."

Tan Zongming nodded, and went to the front to bring a cup of boiling water and put it on the table, "It's a little hot, be careful." Seeing that she was sitting in the seat he was used to, he sat down near her.

"How about it, I'm here."

Seeing him asking, Fan Shengmei glanced at the surrounding decorations and nodded, "The scenery is very nice, very thoughtful." After finishing speaking, she felt that her praise seemed a little perfunctory, and added, "It's not bad to listen to the rain in this place, It makes people feel very relaxed and comfortable.”

Tan Zongming looked at the heavy rain outside, looked away and looked at the person drinking water, the corners of his lips curled up happily.

"As long as you like it."

—————Boundary line—————

The rain doesn't seem to be stopping.

Fan Shengmei stood by the window and looked at the dark clouds in the sky. It was only 17:[-], but it was like night. If it wasn't for the lights outside, she would hardly be able to see clearly.According to this method, I don't know if the city will be flooded, but I'm afraid she won't be able to go back tonight.This flooded Jinshan doesn't know how the two girls at home are doing.The little earthworm is still going to play, and I don't know if it is home yet.

Thinking of this, Fan Shengmei sent a message to the group to ask about the situation.

Sure enough, after a while, Qiu Yingying made a long complaining voice, saying that she was stuck on the road.Several main roads are blocked, and there are long queues.They talked a lot, saying that Yingqin and she got wet all over, so they had to get out of the car and look for KFC Wo there.

Guan Juer was fine, he was home long ago and didn't get stuck on the road.It's just that some takeaways can't be ordered at all at the moment, and they don't want to deliver them in heavy rain, so they can only eat instant noodles at home.At the moment, the news is full of problems with the road conditions in the urban area, which is very congested, and in some places, the roads are bad and water is beginning to accumulate. If this method is still followed in the urban area, it is estimated that it will be the same.

When Fan Shengmei heard this, she felt even more worried.

This Tan Zongming really knows how to choose his time, why is it so hard to go home with him every time...

How can I call her home now?Even if the meal is over, the rain won't stop.

"What's the matter? Standing there alone and sighing, are you bored?" The man who disappeared for a while walked towards her, "There is no one here, and there is nothing to play. If you are bored, there is a movie screening inside." room."

Seeing the "culprit", Fan Shengmei said helplessly, "Ah, no need, I just heard from my friend that there is a traffic jam in the urban area."

Tan Zongming looked at the pouring rain outside the floor-to-ceiling windows behind her, and knew what she was worried about, "Mother Liu and the others have almost finished the meal, you..."

"Dengdengdeng..."

Fan Shengmei's cell phone rang suddenly, interrupting what he was going to say next.He consciously shut down the rest of the words, watched her pick up the phone and looked at himself again, as if hesitating.

"What's the matter? If it's inconvenient, I can..."

Fan Shengmei shook her head, "No need." With a movement of her thumb, the phone was stuck to her ear.

"Hello?" Unconsciously, he glanced at Tan Zongming again.

Seeing this, Tan Zongming took a few steps back and sat on the sofa, crossed his long legs, picked up the teapot in front of him and filled the cup a little.Next to her ear was Fan Shengmei's soft voice, her words were somewhat polite, but her tone sounded quite tender, making it easy for people to guess the person on the other end of the phone.

"Ah... I'm fine, um, it's raining too much and I can't go back." When Xu Xu talked about her situation, Fan Shengmei listened to Cao Qi's concerned voice on the other end of the phone, and pursed her lips, "It's okay, I won't be hungry Yes, don't worry, if the rain subsides later, I, my friend, will send me back."

"That way, then I can rest assured." Cao Qi on the other end confessed that he must take care of his own safety, and that he was a little sorry that he couldn't pick her up when he was away on a business trip.

"This is a special situation, and you didn't make it rain, so you don't need to apologize."

Cao Qi smiled softly on the other end of the phone, "That's right, if I let you go, you should stop right now, so you can't go home..." He then told him to call him when he got home.

Fan Shengmei nodded, "I will. I will call you when I get home in a while, um, don't worry. Be careful when you are outside, um, I won't say much about that, goodbye."

Cao Qi is also a bit busy at work, and the matter has not been dealt with until now, but he just took the time to make a phone call with Fan Shengmei.

The phone hung up in a hurry, and with such a "friend" behind her, Fan Shengmei couldn't say much.

The "friend" in her mouth poured herself a cup of tea, took a sip, saw her put down the phone, and put down the teacup in her hand.

"Cao Qi?" Tan Zongming stood up.
