Before I Got on Stage, the Brokerage Company Went Bankrupt

In the middle of the night, a heavy rain suddenly fell, catching the unsuspecting passers-by by surprise, and in a hurry, they ran to the surrounding places where they could hide from the rain, and took shelter temporarily.

Shuwen also put her bag on her head, looked left and right, and found that the nearest place to hide from the rain was a bus stop sign. Seeing that the rain was getting heavier and heavier, Shuwen didn't care too much, she shrank her neck with her bag on her head, Blindly ran towards the bus stop sign.

But after only two steps, a speeding car drove past Shuwen, splashing the rainwater on the ground, flying Shuwen all over!

Shuwen was so angry that she just wanted to breathe out the fragrance, but the speed of the car was so fast that by the time Shuwen realized it, she had already sped away. Shuwen could only admit that she was unlucky and continued to run to the bus stop.

However, as the saying goes, blessings never come singly, when passing by a sewer entrance, the heels of Shuwen’s high-heeled shoes got embedded in the fence of the sewer entrance. Shuwen’s upper body was still running forward, but her feet could not be pulled out. , So, with a plop, Shuwen fell out!

The elbow hit the ground heavily, and the small bag in her hand fell out. Shuwen lay on the ground in a daze for three seconds before she felt the pain coming from her elbow and her chin.

The rain fell mercilessly from the sky, the accumulated water on the ground also soaked Shuwen's clothes, and the pain that was delayed for three seconds made Shuwen unable to recover from lying on the ground for a long time.

But in the silent night, except for the light of the bus stop not far away on the road, there is no warm atmosphere.

Shuwen lay down on the ground in despair, thinking about how to wait for the rain to stop. Anyway, she was already soaked through, and it didn't make any difference whether she hid from the rain or not.

However, a burst of da da da footsteps gradually approached, accompanied by a concerned voice: Hey, are you okay? Did you get hit by a car? Or did you break your bone? Should I call you? Ambulance? But let me declare first, you have to reimburse me for the cost of calling the ambulance!

Shuwen: ... MDZZ!

If she was the only one on this street, maybe Shuwen could really lie on the ground and wait for the rain to stop, but once there were other people nearby, a stubbornness would naturally rise in Shuwen's heart, and she was unwilling to put herself Show the most embarrassing side to others.

So, Shuwen endured all kinds of pain from her body, and slowly got up from the ground.

The young man who ran over saw that Shuwen was unable to move, and wanted to reach out to help, but he didn't know what he thought of, and finally he didn't reach out. Instead, he glanced around and saw the lady's bag that fell out, as well as lipsticks, mirrors, etc. scattered all over the floor. They were all girls' items anyway, so it was not easy to help them pick them up.

Finally, he saw Shuwen's high-heeled shoes still embedded in the sewer entrance, this can help,

So I ran over in a hurry, grabbing the shoes with both hands and pulling them out.

I didn't expect to use too much force. As soon as I pulled out the high heels, I let go of my hand and hit him hard on the forehead. The pain made him lose his footing, and he fell backwards!

As soon as Shuwen stood up, she heard a clang, the back of the man's head was in close contact with the trash can, making a loud noise!

Shuwen: ...Does my running now count as a hit and run?

The forehead was hit by a high-heeled shoe, and the back of the head was hit by a trash can. The man was stunned, and he sat on the ground and began to think about life.

who I am?

where am i

Why should I come here to do something brave?

Isn't it nice for me to stay far away?

Maybe it was because the man's decadence was too strong, Shuwen moved over slowly—mainly because her whole body was hurting, and she expressed her condolences: Are you okay? Did you break your bone? Or did you have a concussion? Do you want to call an ambulance? But let me declare first, you have to reimburse me for calling the ambulance!

Man: ... Can I take back what I just said?

Don't talk to me, let me calm down.

Oh.

Shuwen grinned and slowly sat down next to the man. In the heavy rain and under the dim light not far away, the two of them were thinking about their lives blankly.

After about ten seconds, the man wiped his face: It's raining too much, let's hide for a while?

Shuwen nodded, stood up again with her hands on her knees, and the man also stood up slowly with his tailbone supported. Both of them could see that the other didn't need to be supported by themselves, so they ignored it and limped towards the bus. Go to the stop sign.

There is a simple bench under the stop sign for people waiting for the bus, and Shuwen and the man occupy one side, which is regarded as a short-term shelter from the rain.

Don't you need to pick up your bag?

The bag is 35 yuan, the lipstick is 30 yuan, and other miscellaneous things add up to about 100 yuan. If I have a cold and go to the hospital, it will cost hundreds of dollars and I may not be optimistic about it. So for the sake of my wallet, Let’s leave it there until the rain stops. Of course, the main reason is that the bag and lipstick won’t get wet!”

Shuwen took out the mobile phone in her pocket, it was okay, it was just a little water, it was not broken, and it was still usable.

The man bared his teeth: I'll go, you're worse off than me!

Shuwen glanced at the man unhappily: A person who can't afford the ambulance fee, where does he have a sense of superiority?

All right, the man withered, because Shuwen was right. He saw Shuwen lying on the ground alone, willing to help but unable to afford the medical expenses, that's why he made the opening remarks. It's just that I didn't expect that Shuwen could see through my embarrassment at a glance, and couldn't help being a little embarrassed.

However, Shuwen added another sentence: Well, I can't afford it either. We are half a catty, so don't laugh at anyone.

The man regained his mental balance: You're a woman, why don't you go home in the middle of the night and run around on the street?

Shuwen: I go to work during the day and go to night school at night, can't I?

The man was puzzled: Didn't the night school end at half past nine? Wouldn't it be later than ten o'clock at the latest?

Shuwen's eyes widened: You understand it very well! Then why don't you go home in the middle of the night and wander around on the street?

The man curled his lips: I also work during the day and work part-time at night, running errands for others.

Shuwen nodded: Oh, then you earn more than me.

The man was not convinced: You are still in night school, you are better than me!

Shuwen readily agreed: That's true!

Man: ... Forget it, I won't talk nonsense with you, I still have to run errands for others, you see that the rain is getting lighter, go home quickly! It's not safe in the middle of the night!

Shuwen pointed to the trash can: Are you sure you don't want to go to the hospital?

Need not!

The man said, then ran into the rain and picked up Shuwen's high-heeled shoes for her. As for her bag, she didn't care, and he didn't even care: Hurry up and go home when the rain is light! Remember to eat when you go back. Medicine, so as not to catch a cold!

As soon as he finished speaking, the man's cell phone rang, and the ringtone was very loud, and Shuwen could hear it clearly amidst the crackling rain.

Forgive me for being uninhibited, indulgent and loving freedom all my life

I'm also afraid that one day I'll fall

Anyone can abandon their ideals

I'm afraid that one day it's just you and me—

The man picked up the phone: Hey, I'll be there soon! Soon, five minutes, no! Three minutes! Don't give me a bad review, really, I'll be there soon!

The man hung up the phone, didn't care about what to say to Shuwen, and ran to the other side in the rain. There was a shared bicycle parked there. He had just ridden it. It hadn't been locked yet, so he could ride it away.

Shuwen watched the figure of the man riding a bicycle slowly go away, seeing that the torrential rain showed no sign of stopping at all, so she simply took out her mobile phone and searched for the lyrics she just heard.

Well, it's a new song, give it a try, and there's no charge for the try.

Amidst the lonely piano accompaniment, a low but clear voice came:

Today I watched the snow drift by in the cold night

Flying far away with a chilled heart—

While listening to the song, Shuwen opened the memo on the phone, and looked at the content that she typed out word by word:

Shuwen's three goals:

Number one: become a good illustrator.

Second: Publish a picture book of your own.

Third: Always love painting.

Then, Shuwen, who was too slow to take many shots, remembered: Oh, did you forget to say thank you just now?

Uh, forget it, I can't catch up now, let's make up for it next time we meet.
