Midnight.

Black clouds obscure the moon.

The wind rises, the clouds surge, the lightning flashes and thunders.

The white light flashed, boomed, and the rain poured down, like a pour of water.

......

There was another "boom" of thunder, which shattered the sky.

Meanwhile.

In the Gu family villa——

Da, da, da, the sound of raindrops crashing against the window was like a brazen man waving a powerful fist and roaring.

That thunder woke Ye Lanxi from his dream.

Lying on the bed, she opened her eyes suddenly, rolled over from the bed and sat up.

"It hurts so much......"

She clutched her forehead.

As if her head had exploded, her eyebrows furrowed, her face full of pain.

......

The pitch-black sky swept through a bright light.

After a burst of lightning, boom—

There was another loud thunderclap.

Ye Lanxi, who was sitting on the bed, hugged her head, frowned tightly, and bit her red lips.

Seemingly, caught in some kind of pain.

"Ah......h

Ye Lanxi turned on the bedside light, took a deep breath, sat quietly on the bed with her back against the bed wall for a while, and forcibly suppressed the explosive pain coming from her head.

His lips trembled slightly.

Before she knew it, two lines of tears oozed from the corners of her eyes.

By the way, why would she be afraid of thunder......

Why......

Window.

Heavy rain is like a note.

Taking advantage of the fact that the thunder finally had a moment to stop, Ye Lanxi rolled over from the bed, kicked her shoes, slowly paced to the door, and opened the door.

In the dark, she leaned against the wall and went down to the first floor, walked to the living room, grabbed a few bottles of wine from the refrigerator, and turned to sit down on the couch.

"Well, drink a little and you won't be afraid. ”

-

City C.

Hilltop villas.

"Young master, it's late at night, it's time to rest. ”

The villa housekeeper Lao Cai walked to the floor-to-ceiling window and bowed down to stand beside Gu Tingchen.

"Hmm. ”

Gu Tingchen held one hand behind him, pinched a box in the other, and stared through the large floor-to-ceiling window in front of him to look at the swaying shadows of the trees outside the window.

He pursed his lips in place and groaned for a few seconds.

Momentarily, turn around.

Stretching out his long legs against the sky, he walked steadily towards the direction of the room.

When I walked to the door, I suddenly heard a loud thunderclap.

Hearing the sound, the hand he put on the doorknob and was about to push the door paused subconsciously.

"Master, it's raining. ”

The voice of the housekeeper and the old man came from behind him.

Gu Tingchen stopped at the door, his thin lips gently pursed a beautiful arc, his eyes were empty, and his eyes were dark and uncertain.

After a moment of silence, he suddenly raised his eyes, turned around, and walked out with his feet raised.

The housekeeper Lao Cai followed behind and called, "Hey, young master, it's so late, and it's raining so heavily outside, where are you going......

"Go back to City A. ”

"Back to City A?"

The housekeeper was stunned for a moment.

Young master, this is it, knowing that Mrs. Gu is afraid of thunder, so she is in a hurry to rush back to accompany Mrs. Gu?

......

There are almost 50 kilometers between cities A and C.

When Gu Tingchen braved the heavy rain and drove back to City A, it was almost early in the morning.

The night was dark, thunder and thunder rang out one after another, and the heavy rain had not stopped.

After Gu Tingchen parked the car in the parking shed outside the eaves of the villa, he got out of the car, pressed his fingerprints, and gently pushed open the door of the villa.

Through the dim halo pouring down from the inlaid lamp on the ceiling of the hall, he saw Ye Lanxi sitting cross-legged on the sofa in the hall with his side facing the door, holding a pillow.

The sound of him opening the door was soft, soft.

Even the slight closing of the door and the sound of footsteps did not alarm the woman sitting on the sofa in the slightest.

Over there.

Ye Lanxi, who was sitting on the sofa, poured herself another glass of wine, put down the wine bottle, brought the glass to her lips, and took a sip with her neck up.
