7 Did Not Check the Almanac Before Going Out

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Jian Dan felt a chill… She slowly opened her eyes… and realized that she had actually slept on the grass all night.

The morning dew made her entire body damp. She shivered and got up quickly to return to the house to take a hot shower and warm up…

As soon as she entered the house, she bumped into Uncle Yuan… "What happened?"

"Hehe…" Jian Dan was a little uneasy… and gave a brief explanation.

"It's autumn now. You will catch a cold sleeping outside." Uncle Yuan said reproachfully.

"It's fine. I'm very healthy! I'll be fine after a hot shower." She skipped around Uncle Yuan and went upstairs.

Jian Dan turned on the nozzle and warm water rained onto her body. She shivered again.

She was under the warm water for 20 minutes before she felt a trace of warmth.

After taking a shower, Jian Dan felt much warmer. So, she put on her clothes and went downstairs.

Breakfast was already ready in the dining room… Jian Dan came to the dining table and stared at the spread. She could not help but swallow her saliva…

How could there be so much delicious food?

Although she could eat a lot, she could not possibly finish so much food. So wasteful!

Oh, I'm thinking too much. Eat first…

Burp… I'm stuffed!

After breakfast, Uncle Yuan gave Jian Dan two white pills…

Jian Dan looked at the two large pills and subconsciously shut her mouth. She hated taking medicine since she was young.

Especially these large white pills… They were simply a torture to Jian Dan.

"Um, Uncle Yuan, I'm really fine. I'm very healthy. Look."

Jian Dan hurriedly said as she waved her hand and even flexed her biceps.

"I'm really fine. As for this medicine? There's no need! I have to report to the internship company. I'll make a move first!"

She took her bag and ran off…

While on the bus, Jian Dan felt a slight headache. However, she did not pay much heed.

The interview went smoothly. The environment here was not bad. Even the food in the canteen was very good.

The only flaw was that she actually bumped into Qin Rou here. She was an intern here too. What a small world!

However, in Jian Dan's opinion, this was not a big deal. What was more important now was that it was raining heavily outside.

Jian Dan did not bring an umbrella.

Not only did the rain not stop, it seemed to be getting progressively heavier.

There were many cabs, but they were all taken. It was extremely difficult to hail a cab on a rainy day.

Just as Jian Dan was worrying about how to go back…

A car drove over at high speed and braked sharply right in front of Jian Dan, splashing water from the puddle on the road all over her.

Jian Dan was chilled to the bone…

Just as Jian Dan was about to confront the driver, she heard a voice behind her. "What happened? Why are you like a drowned rat?"

Qin Rou and a woman in a power suit walked over.

Jian Dan could not be bothered with her. The most important thing now was to resolve the matter at hand…

"You! Get out of the car." Jian Dan pointed at the driver and said.

However, when the driver got out of the car, he did not even look at Jian Dan. He held an umbrella and walked over to Qin Rou. "Miss."

Jian Dan was not stupid. How could she not get it?

He had obviously done it on purpose. He wanted to ride roughshod over her?

Fine. Let's see who gets the short end of the stick… Just as Qin Rou passed by Jian Dan, Jian Dan "sent" her into the puddle…

"Argh! My Prada!" Qin Rou gave a shrill scream.

Jian Dan looked at the expensive shoes in the water and laughed out loud. She looked at Qin Rou smugly.

"You… Do you know how much my shoes cost? You can't even afford them even if you work for a year!" Qin Rou berated.

"Why? Ruining a pair of shoes is not enough? You don't want your clothes too?" Jian Dan threatened.

Jian Dan had nothing to lose, so she was not afraid. Since she was already wet, how could she get any wetter?

Under such circumstances, the woman in the power suit said, "We're cultured people. Don't lower yourself to the level of that uncultured person."

Hmph, uncultured? "Say that again if you dare." Jian Dan rolled up her sleeves and looked like she was ready for a fight.

Seeing this, Qin Rou and that woman quickly got into the car…

"Did I really not check the almanac when I came out today? I'm so unlucky?" Jian Dan said self-deprecatingly as she looked at her wet clothes.

With Jian Dan's appearance now, it was even more impossible to get a cab. Luckily, the bus is the best thing since sliced bread…

Jian Dan shivered non-stop on the bus…

There was still a long distance from home after getting off the bus. Jian Dan wanted to call Uncle Yuan to pick her up because she felt very dizzy and her body felt very heavy. She did not have any strength… But she realized that she did not bring her cell phone; she must have forgotten to bring it when she left this morning.

So tragic. A person with real bad luck will even choke when drinking water.

Jian Dan had no choice; she could not wait at the bus stop forever. She was soaked to the skin. Even if she was dry, she would not be able to withstand standing in the cold wind here. She could only brace herself and slowly trudge towards Li Garden…

It was a long journey for Jian Dan as she trudged her way back. It seemed to be an endless journey… Towards the end, it was her willpower that powered her along…

A gust of cold wind nipped at her…

Jian Dan felt that her feet, hair and her bones were all chilled through.

Her upper and lower eyelids were trembling. She could not seem to feel her legs.

Jian Dan seemed to have seen Li Garden in her hypnagogia… Then, her vision turned black…
