Taxi at night

Chapter 13, Calling from strangers
Lu Ren was busy working the night shift for several days, and for a while, he completely forgot about returning the female college student's electric guitar.

It is also a strange thing to say.After he was discharged from the hospital, he started working again and found that the taxi business in the evening was getting better day by day. , the net income per night is more than 2 yuan, almost catching up with the daily net income of the car boss.

Lu Ren lacked money, and he lacked money to buy a car.

Now that the business is booming at night, he is both happy and motivated, and he is focused on running the taxi.He didn't know how long this good luck would last. Lu Ren still knew how to strike while the iron was hot and concentrate on making money.

Earning more than usual also means physical overdraft, not to mention sleepless nights.Therefore, as soon as Lu Ren returned to his residence, he often fell asleep and fell asleep, so it was difficult for outsiders to be seen.

This made Yao Qin, who was used to seeing Lu Ren usually, secretly surprised. She once thought that some kind of unknown accident had happened to him, otherwise, why would he never see anyone?
At noon that day, the sun was shining brightly outside, and the sky was cloudless. After lunch, Yao Qin led Tian Tian to sit in the courtyard and do her homework.

At this moment, in someone's bedroom next door, the door was closed, the curtains were covering it, and there was no sound in the dark room. Lu Ren was lying on the bed and sleeping soundly.

Hearing the heavy and even snoring, one could guess that Lu Ren was really tired these few nights, otherwise he wouldn't have slept so soundly and snored like thunder.

The mobile phone placed beside the bed began to whine, over and over again, but Lu Ren seemed not to have heard it, and was still asleep with his head covered.

Lu Ren likes to cover his eyes when he sleeps. This is a habit he developed after driving a taxi for the past two years.

After the phone rang for a few minutes, someone hung up... Half an hour later, Lu Ren's phone rang again. This time it was more persistent than before, and he seemed more patient. Don't give up meaning.

"Mom, Mom, listen, is the phone at Uncle's house ringing..." Tiantian's small ears had already heard the ringing of the phone. Finally, he yelled at his mother, dragging Yao Qin, who was drowsy from the sun, back to reality from the daze.

"Oh, what's the phone... Well, it's the ringtone of the mobile phone... It's strange, why didn't Lu Ren answer the phone?" Yao Qin shook her confused head, pricked up her ears and listened quietly, the ringing kept ringing non-stop , not like an inexplicable harassing phone call.

She stood up and came to the bottom of the wall, just about to call Lu Ren at the top of her voice, when the ringing stopped suddenly, followed by Lu Ren's annoyed voice.

No one would like to be woken up from a sound sleep for no reason. Yao Qin could tell that Lu Ren's doze off did not sleep well, no wonder he was a little anxious and irritable.

When Lu Ren connected the phone, a strange young woman's voice came out of the phone, hoarse and deep, and it could be heard that the person was in a bad mood and slightly depressed.

"Hello, Master Lu, I'm sorry to disturb your rest." The young woman expressed her sincere apology, causing Lu Ren to extinguish half of the anger in his stomach, paused, and asked in a muffled voice: "Who are you... Am I okay?"

"You know me, or you rescued me from the water..."

"It's you?!" Lu Ren's head snapped up, and he became sober and cheered up immediately, without any sleepiness.This girl still has something in her hands, and she is worrying that there is nowhere to find her, but now she came to find her by herself, it is very good.

"Your name is Tang Xue, right? I called today to ask for something, right?"

"Yes, but not all. I was in a hurry to leave the hospital, so I didn't have time to thank you in person?" Tang Xue hurriedly replied, meaning that Lu Ren understood.

As for what happened at that time, whether Tang Xue's family was ungrateful or not, these were not important to him.

The important thing is that Tang Xue is still alive, and he is safe and well. This is the best result.

"Thank you, there's no need. The things are here. It seems to be an amplifier, an electric guitar, right?" Lu Ren carefully asked for confirmation.

"Well, do you have time? I can come to you anytime."

"I live in Xing'an District, Chunjiang East Road, Shuangjing Hutong, about eight kilometers away from your school, can you find this place?"

"I can take a taxi there, look...can I go there now?"

"Okay, I'll wait for you." Lu Ren agreed after thinking about it. Since the girl is eager to get her things back, of course the sooner the better, choosing the day is worse than hitting the sun, so let's do it today!

Lu Ren put down his phone and lay down on the bed for a while. It was estimated that the girl would come over in an hour, so it was hard to go back to sleep.

At 2 o'clock in the afternoon, Yao Qin came back from school after sending Tiantian to school. When she passed the kitchen of Lu Ren's house, she heard a loud bang and bang inside, turned around and walked to the kitchen window, and shouted through the glass: "Lu Ren, you are cooking ?"

"Yes, is Tiantian sent to school?" Lu Ren immediately replied, looking out.

"What are you going to cook?" Yao Qin asked with concern, wanting to help.

"Put a bowl of noodles... save trouble." Lu Ren replied with a smile, and lowered it into the pot.

If it's just a bowl of noodles, Yao Qin doesn't plan to step in to help.Because she knew Lu Ren well, she was not very good at cooking, so she could still get a few home-cooked dishes, so she was not afraid of starving.

In fact, this has a lot to do with Lu Ren's life experience.

In his hometown in the countryside, because Lu Ren's mother passed away a little too early, he started to cook by himself since elementary school, serving his father who often came home late from work.After accumulating over the years, the iron pestle has been ground into a needle, and the housework is done in a decent manner, without embarrassment or embarrassment at all.

"I'll drive the car home first. Open the door later. I have something to tell you." Yao Qin looked around and said in a low voice.

"What's the matter... mysterious?" Lu Ren looked at the disappearing figure and said to himself.Yao Qin wanted to discuss something with him, Lu Ren thought very puzzled, thought wildly for a while, scratched his hair, and really couldn't figure out what it was.

Lu Ren just took out the noodles from the pot, and before he got out of the kitchen, he vaguely heard the ringing of the cell phone in the main room.

"Tang Xue's call? So fast...it's too urgent!" Lu Ren walked into the main room quickly, grabbed the phone and checked, it was really Tang Xue calling.

Lu Ren didn't care about eating noodles, took his mobile phone, walked out of the yard, and hurried to the street to meet the guests.

Yao Qin came to Lu Ren slowly.The courtyard door was open, and she stepped in.There was no one in the kitchen, and they stepped into the main room again. A bowl of steaming noodles was placed on the coffee table, but Lu Ren was nowhere to be seen.

"Probably because I have something urgent to go out, otherwise, the meal is ready, so I can leave before finishing eating. Besides, the gate of the courtyard is not closed, so I guess it is not far away, and I will have to come back soon." Yao Qin murmured in her heart, I made a good guess.
