Outside the wooden door, heavy rain lashed down, and the sky was blanketed in dense black clouds. Suddenly, thunder rumbled through the storm clouds, unleashing an earth-shattering CRACK, as if it meant to purge the world of every evil spirit wreaking havoc on earth.
Caught completely off guard, Chen Wanyue was startled by a sudden clap of thunder directly overhead.
Her legs went weak. With a scream, she collapsed right in the kitchen doorway.
The torrential downpour pelted her, and in an instant, Chen Wanyue was soaked to the bone, like a drowned rat.
It felt like a show of force from the heavens. Terrified, Chen Wanyue suddenly covered her face and began to wail.
"I didn't mean it! I'll never say it again…"
She scrambled wretchedly back into the kitchen, but after only a single step, she bumped into something.
Scared out of her wits, she turned to look, only to see Zhao Jing taking a step back, his face a mask of disgust as if he'd just touched something filthy.
