Chapter 120 A Sudden Rain

Chapter 120 A sudden rain

The threshing floor was noisy, with the cries of children, the voices of adults chatting, and the laughter of girls and boys mingling together. Susie could clearly hear what the people around her were saying, and there was a buzz all around.

Not long after waiting, a color image finally appeared on the white curtain, the movie started, the sound started, and the buzz on the threshing floor finally became quieter.

Susie craned her neck to look forward, but the seat was too far back and she couldn't see the lower half of the screen at all.

Tian Xiaohui next to her was even worse. She was short and her vision was even worse than Susie's.

Tian Xiaohui stretched her neck very long, sometimes moving to the left and sometimes to the right.

Even so, Tian Xiaohui was very immersed in the movie. When she saw the fish caught by Xiao Haixia being snatched away by the bully in the movie, she was extremely angry, "Damn the bully!"

Susie looked at this simple child very funny.

I don’t know when, people in front started to stand up, Tian Xiaohui shouted: "Hey, people in front, please sit down? How can you look at the back like this?"

No one paid any attention to her.

Soon, more and more people stood watching in front, almost completely blocking the screen.

Tian Xiaohui had no choice but to stand up. Even if she stood up, she still couldn't see. She gritted her teeth and stood on the chair, finally able to see half of the screen.

Susie was also blocked from seeing, so she had to follow and stand on the chair.

Qiao Mu was originally sitting, but when he saw Susie standing on the chair, he also stood up and put his hands on the back of the chair.

Unknowingly, "Haixia" gradually came to an end, and at this moment, a "pat-ta-ta-ta-ta" sound suddenly sounded.

A large raindrop fell on the tip of Susie's nose.

Before Susie could react, she looked up at the sky. The snapping sound soon became more and more dense, like fried beans.

Then someone shouted, "It's raining, it's raining heavily, everyone, run away."

Susie was still sitting on the chair, and just as she was about to get down, the people in front of her squeezed her, and Susie fell back involuntarily.

While she was panicking, Susie felt herself falling into a hug.

Qiao Mu had no interest in the movie at all. He stood up to protect Susie. When she fell back, he opened his arms and hugged her firmly.

The rain came quickly and heavily, and chaos instantly broke out on the threshing floor. People shouted, picked up their chairs, and ran home.

The projectionist was in a hurry to turn off the machine, fearing that the expensive projector would be damaged by the rain.

Susie also quickly stood upright. She was holding the chair and was about to leave, but for a moment she didn't know which direction to go.

There are no houses around the threshing floor in Qipai, unlike the threshing floor in Giethoorn.

At this moment, the projector stopped, the light and shadow on the screen disappeared, and the entire threshing floor became pitch black.

Susie suddenly couldn't see anything clearly.

Suddenly, a hand grabbed Susie's arm tightly. Just as Susie was about to break free, she heard Qiao Mu's voice, "Follow me, there is a school over there. Let's go there to take shelter from the rain."

Susie felt a little reassured when she heard Qiao Mu's voice, and didn't move any more, letting him hold her hand.

She knew that in this dark and chaotic environment, if she was pretentious, she wouldn't know what would happen.

Susie was pulled by the tree and pushed by the crowd for a while. Heavy raindrops hit her face, and she couldn't even open her eyes.

She suddenly remembered Tian Xiaohui and shouted anxiously: "Xiaohui, Xiaohui, where are you?"

The only sounds in my ears were the pitter-patter of raindrops falling, and the various voices of aunts and ladies calling for their children.

Qiao Mu said loudly: "Don't worry, go take shelter from the rain first. She is such a big person, and Yuan Gang will definitely take care of her."

Susie had no choice. She couldn't find Tian Xiaohui in such a chaotic and dark environment.

She couldn't tell the direction and followed Qiao Mu in confusion.

The hands they held together were soaked by the rain and were so slippery that they were almost impossible to hold. Whenever Susie felt that her hand was about to slip out of Qiao Mu's palm, Qiao Mu would hold her tightly again.

.

She didn’t know how long she walked, but it seemed like a very short time and a very long time. Susie vaguely saw the dark outline of a house in front of her in the night rain.

The two of them finally reached the house. Qiao Mu stretched out his hand and opened the door, "Go in."

Before Su Qian went to see Ruan Zhonghua, Qiao Mu walked around in frustration and found a school not far from the threshing floor.

There are only two classrooms in the school, and the doors of the classrooms are not locked. I walk around in and out of the tree.

As soon as Susie entered the room, she began to tremble uncontrollably.

She was soaked to the skin now and felt like she was losing her temperature.

Qiao Mu soon discovered that Susie was trembling. After he adapted to the darkness for a while and his eyes could barely see something, he quickly pulled Susie and pushed her to a chair to sit down. "You sit down, I'll get some."

Bring the firewood."

Just as he was about to leave, Susie's teeth chattered and she reached out to hold him, "Don't go, it's raining so hard, and you can't even find firewood."

It was raining so heavily and it was dark. She couldn't let Qiao Mu run around outside.

This was true. Qiao Mu didn't dare to leave Susie. Seeing that she was still shaking, he became very anxious and said, "Then take off your outer clothes quickly and I'll wring them dry for you."

The soaked clothes did not keep warm at all. Susie saw that the surroundings were dark and she could barely see anything, so she gritted her teeth and took off her windbreaker, and Qiao Mu quickly wrung it dry.

Susie then took off her sweater and wringed her close-fitting autumn clothes dry.

At this moment, she heard the sound of footsteps suddenly mixed with the sound of rain outside.

Susie was startled and quickly grabbed the sweater Qiao Mu handed over and put it on.

Although it is dark in this room, after getting used to it for a while, you can still see the general outline clearly.

She was now disheveled and staying in a dark room with a male educated youth. If she bumped into someone, who knows what would be said.

But the more anxious she became, the more she became haunted. Susie couldn't find where the collar of the sweater was for a while, but the footsteps sounded closer and closer.

Qiao Mu also thought about this problem. He quickly picked up Susie's windbreaker, then pulled Susie up and walked to the corner of the classroom.

As soon as the two of them reached the corner, the classroom door was pushed open.

Susie quickly squatted on the ground, and Qiao Mu followed suit.

Then I heard someone say, "Hey, it rained so heavily all of a sudden. I got soaked all over."

This was a local dialect, and it seemed that they were people from several nearby villages.

Then someone answered, "Damn, I've traveled so far and haven't finished the movie yet. I'm afraid I'll catch a cold tomorrow."

Then there were many people talking. Susie groped in the dark and finally found the collar of the sweater. She put it on shivering.

Fortunately, those people were talking and no one noticed this little movement in the corner.
