I'll See You When the Rain Stops

On a rainy afternoon, Lin Xi was in the cafe, struggling to change his plan, when he met the man wearing a crisp windbreaker and ordering a caramel macchiato. He handed her a glass of warm water, casually solved her stuck budget problem, left a minimalist business card with only his name and phone number, and disappeared into the rain. Lin Xi thought this was just a chance encounter, but she didn't expect that the words "Shen Yanzhi" would appear again - he is Party A's designated partner, the founder of the top planning company in the industry, and a legendary industry boss who rarely appears. From the casual conversation in the cafe to the formal meeting in the conference room, she discovered that this man who always appeared on rainy days had many contrasts: he would speak sharply during negotiations, and he would remember her love for extra milk foam; he could accurately control every detail of the event, and he would silently put a cup of warm macchiato in the tea room when she was working overtime. The rain curtain fell and closed again and again, like the distant distance between them. Lin Xi gradually saw clearly that beneath Shen Yanzhi's composure, there was an unknown softness; and those seemingly coincidental approaches might be his long-planned tenderness. When the last rain stopped and the sun penetrated the clouds, Lin Xi finally understood: some encounters, starting from the first drop of rain falling on the wall of the cup, are destined to cook up long stories with the aroma of caramel over time.
