his little warmth

Chapter 159 Jiang Liu Extra: The five elements are short of water

The weather was gray and hazy, accompanied by a cool breeze, and all the heavy dark clouds fell, and the city was shrouded in a world of rain.

Jiang Liu put away his umbrella and walked unhurriedly into the entrance of a supermarket to take shelter from the rain.

The rain was dripping, and countless tiny silver strands flowed down the eaves. The rain came unexpectedly, and many people stood in front of the store to take shelter from the rain, their clothes half wet.

Maybe he thought it was not good to just stand at the door and hinder other people's business.

Everyone stood for a while watching the rain getting heavier, and then went into the store to buy things.

The originally crowded corridor suddenly became empty. Through the glass door, you could feel the noise of people in the supermarket, which was very lively.

Different from the world inside the door, only Jiang Liu remained motionless in the corridor, standing tall and tall at the door.

The man pursed his thin lips, raised his eyelashes slightly, and looked at the rain falling from the sky, slightly distracted.

The raindrops in the air rippled, sometimes drifting and sometimes splashing down. The handsome man stood under the eaves like this, with the moisture mist blurring his beautiful eyes.

Looking around, the sky and the earth seem to be trapped by rain.

Jiang Liu looked at the confusing rain scene in front of him, his thoughts slowly drifting away unconsciously.

He remembered that it rained so heavily on the day Jiang Nuanxing was kidnapped.

At that time, Jiang Liu, who was new to the mall, had just concluded a business deal. Before he could be happy, the news that his sister had been kidnapped reached his ears.

A jealous business rival targeted the young Jiang Nuanxing. He and Jiang Sheng were caught off guard, and had no way to deal with it.

The two grown men didn't sleep for one day and two nights, and exhausted all manpower and material resources to finally rescue Jiang Nuanxing.

Jiang Liu still remembers the day the police found the little girl.

The "dong-dong-dong" rainstorm fell on the iron shed, the sound was particularly harsh, and the world was extremely dark.

The girl huddled in the corner, her fleshy little face became thin, she sobbed softly in a soft voice, and her eyes were red from crying.

But she didn't recognize anyone and stubbornly looked for her mother.

mom.

That was one of the few times Jiang Liu thought of her after Jiang's mother passed away.

The woman in his memory was gentle and beautiful. She often smiled at him, touched his head and said many words of praise to him.

The memories are so beautiful, so after so many years, Jiang Liu still remembers what Jiang's mother often said.

"Xiaoliu needs to grow up obediently. In the future, when her mother is gone, Xiaoliu should help her father more and take good care of her sister."

Jiang Liu agreed one by one and did a good job.

But on the day his sister was kidnapped, he missed the appointment.

Fortunately, Jiang Nuanxing did not suffer any substantial harm, otherwise, this incident would be a permanent thorn in his heart...

Suddenly, a mischievous wisp of rain fell on Jiang Liu's face, bringing him back from his long thoughts.

The man half-closed his eyelashes and raised his hand to wipe away the water droplets on his face.

Looking up at the sky again, the rain gradually became lighter, and some people taking shelter from the rain had already set off.

Jiang Liu's figure moved slightly, and he picked up the umbrella placed by the wall and was about to leave, but when he inadvertently looked at the corner at the end of the corridor, his footsteps stopped.

I saw a gray-haired old man sitting on a small wooden bench to take shelter from the rain.

He was wearing long trousers and wide sleeves. The clothes on one shoulder had been wet by the raindrops but he didn't notice it. His cloudy eyes looked at the umbrella in the supermarket window with tangled and longing eyes.

The corridor was crowded with people, everyone walked in and out, but no one noticed him.

Jiang Liu was silent for a while and walked forward.

"Old man, this umbrella is for you."

Jiang Liu is not a kind-hearted person, but there are things he can do that he can help with.

When the old man heard this, his expression was startled. He looked away from the display window and turned to look at the man with a dignified temperament in front of him. He then stared blankly for a long time, stroking his beard and smiling.

"The world sees me here in the rain. Only good people do good deeds. Young man, I think you are also a good person. Come on, come on, sit down quickly. I have a destiny with you. Don't miss it! Let me come quickly. Let me tell you about your fortune."

"..."

The old man spoke in a polite tone. Jiang Liu paused and took a closer look to see the Taoist robe he was wearing.

Oh.

Jiang Liu felt confused.

Turns out to be a charlatan.

Jiang Liu didn't say anything, turned around and left.

Unexpectedly, in the next second, the old man grabbed his trousers and yelled: "Fateful people, don't go! This old man has practiced Taoism in Siyu Temple for many years, and I am here to travel down the mountain just to see the world's various attitudes. Shameless person!!"

Jiang Liu: "..."

A few minutes later, Jiang Liu, elegantly dressed in a suit and leather shoes, sat on a small wooden stool to tell fortunes. Opposite him sat an old man who was looking at the fortunes in a daze...

Jiang Liu stroked his forehead helplessly, thinking to himself that he might have been stunned by the rain, otherwise how could he believe the old man's lies.

It happened that a message from my college roommate came through my phone, asking him if he would go back to school tonight.

Jiang Liu clicked on the typing screen and replied: No reply, I will pick it up later...

"Sister." The old man's voice suddenly sounded, with a smile on his face: "Young man, you have a sister, right?"

Jiang Liu paused his fingertips slightly and finished typing quietly.

The old man was not angry when he saw that he ignored him. He stared at the copper coins of an unknown age spread out on the table. Finally, he stroked his beard and came to a conclusion.

"Young man, I have read a few hexagrams for you. First of all, I found that your Qiankun hexagram is not good. As usual, you should have a good rest and pay attention to your health."

"Then I discovered that your fortune divination is very strong, and doing business is a good path for you."

"And your good marriage hexagram?" The old man smiled and said a few words with unclear meaning: "The five elements are short of water."

...

The air just after the rain was fresh and refreshing, and the remaining water on the street trickled into the sewer.

Jiang Liu walked in the direction of Yi Gao, not paying attention to what the old man said in his mind.

After all, it would be great if there are some things that can be known using hexagrams.

Then Nuannuan won't be kidnapped, and she won't have to go through those things...

But how is it possible.

Jiang Liu firmly decided to object and moved forward without any distractions.

This is a small road leading to Yigao. The narrow one-way road has poor drainage, and there are puddles on the road that have not had time to subside.

As soon as Jiang Liu walked around the corner, an exclamation burst into the air.

"Ah! The lady's skirt I just bought today!!"

The next second, Jiang Liu saw a girl falling into a deep puddle.

Sewage was splashed on the road, and the girl's face was dirty, but her eyes were bright and full of annoyance.

She stamped her feet and looked angrily at the stains on her beautiful dress, almost crying in anger.

Somehow, seeing the girl's embarrassed look, Jiang Liu suddenly suppressed the raised corners of his lips, and his usually gentle eyebrows were stained with a smile.

He leaned down and stretched out his slender white hands towards her.

"Are you okay?" Jiang Liu paused when his eyes touched the girl's bright face.

The man's eyebrows were slightly raised, as if he was remembering something, and then he smiled brightly.

"Ling... Huan?"

"You are Nuan Nuan's classmate, remember me?"

When Ling Huan saw him, she was also stunned and opened her lips without saying a word.

Jiang Liu thought she didn't remember him, so he smiled and introduced himself: "I am Jiang Liu."

Ling Huan finally reacted, nodded sharply, and stuttered a little when he opened his mouth: "I...I...I..."

She wanted to say: "I know, you are Jiang Liu."

But when he met the man's gaze, his words changed into: "I...I...I remember!"

At first glance, it sounds quite annoying.

Ling Huan: "..."

Jiang Liu didn't care. He waved his palm in front of her eyes and asked, "Then let me pull you up?"

"...Hmm." Ling Huan adhered to the principle of saying more and making more mistakes. She tightened her skirt and nodded reservedly.

The man's hands were slender and beautiful, and his movements were strong and gentle. Ling Huan looked at the image of her dirty little paws holding his clean palms, silently closing her eyes and praying.

God, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to taint your friend.

But maybe it was because of closing her eyes that Ling Huan accidentally stepped on the hem of her skirt as soon as she landed on the ground.

With an exclamation, Jiang Liu unexpectedly caught the girl's soft body and... the sewage splashed all over him.

The moment the world was spinning, the two of them fell to the ground.

Somehow, Jiang Liu's mind suddenly popped into his head what the old man said.

"Young man, your good match is short of water in the five elements."
