Chapter 20: Scram!!!
historical
"Boss, it's raining today, do you still want to go to Gahll?" Wang Feng questioned as he stared at the rain through window in Liu Wei's office.
"Mmm, I may not have the time again, we won't be staying for long, and again the audition advertisement begins tomorrow, My schedule would be tight so it's either today or never" Liu Wei explained as he adjusted his collar and tie.
Wang Feng nodded and continued to watch the rain. Liu Wei knew he could send a representative to Gahll but he wanted to go himself. To see the school Liling studied in and if possible look around the school, but the rain had destructed his plans, he would just talk business and leave. Though he knew one of his reasons was maybe to catch a glimpse of Liling, but he immediately shoved the thoughts aside, he didn't want to accept that he wanted to see her. It felt miserable.
By the time they went downstairs, the rain had stopped and a gentle breeze of the after-rain blowing past them. Wang Feng gently opened the back seat for Liu Wei, then he sat on the driver's seat and left for Gahll Polytechnic.
....
Liling peeked outside and realized that the rain had stopped, she gently stood up, wore jacket over her tank top and left for the pharmacy. The one nearest to her hostel was the one outside the school, the others where few miles from her hostel and due to her pain she decided to trek it. She wore a pair of sneakers which helped her walk the muddy grounds due to the rain. Before long she arrived at the shop, after paying for the drugs she left the pharmacy, bought some ginger tea and honey in the nearby grocery store and left for home.
Either that she she was too occupied with her cramps that she didn't see the oncoming vehicle, or that the driver did not see her, either way, before she could realize what had happened her face and upper body had been covered with muddy water.
"Who's this mentally impaired driver?!! " She screamed, her body shuddered from the cold.
The car didn't stop immediately, it drove some distance and later screeched. The driver stepped out and hurried over to her.
...
Liu Wei had finished with the Chancellor, he didn't talk much, the meeting was very brief. After tabling what he came for and explaining some details, he shook hands with him and left with his assistant.
"What!!, why are you staring at me like that?,you can't even apologize, I'll sue you for reckless driving, people like you shouldn't even ride a bicycle talk more of a car!!!" Lililng ranted, her abdominal pain had increased tremendously, and this good-for-nothing driver was here wasting her precious time. She glared at him and decided to just let it be, she didn't have much strength for herself not to talk of wasting it on some dumb driver.
She started to walk away but the man stopped her.
"I'm very sorry Miss, I didn't mean to, why don't you come to the car, I'll take you to your destination?" Wang Feng gently pleaded.
Liling felt like someone was pulling out her uterus, she was red all over. She didn't want to be weak in front of this random stranger, so she took in a deep breath and screamed.
