Yun Ran was woken up by the thunder.
Opening her eyes, she saw a white lightning bolt split the dark night, lighting up the outside as if it were daytime.
The rain, carried by the wind, pounded against the window lattice, as if composing a unique nocturne.
Thinking that person was still sleeping outside, Yun Ran instinctively wanted to push open the window to take a look.
However, the moment she pushed open the window, a bolt of lightning struck down from the sky, and in the blinding white light, she saw a figure hanging upside down outside her window. The night wind whipped his white clothes and wild black hair, and his face glowed with a faint, eerie light!
Some strands of hair, wet with rain, brushed against her cheek, cold as ice...
Yun Ran screamed in shock, her drowsiness vanished in an instant.
"Oh! Did I scare you? Little girl, you’re so timid!"
The man’s deep, magnetic voice floated into her ears, as pleasant as it was infuriating.
[Bastard! Hanging outside her window in the middle of the night trying to scare someone to death? Doesn’t he know that scaring people can be deadly?!]
In her fury, Yun Ran grabbed a pillow and hurled it at his face.
"Bastard! Are you looking for death!"
The man swung backward and gracefully landed on the ground, pointing to the stormy night with an innocent expression and said:
"It’s raining outside, and I can’t come inside, otherwise, you’d accuse me of having ill intentions, so I had no choice but to rest under the corridor."
Yun Ran knew there was a corridor outside the bamboo house, but...
"Such a large place, you couldn’t have gone anywhere else but stayed outside my window? And hanging upside down! Even a dog wouldn’t believe it if you said it wasn’t on purpose!"
The man touched his chin, his expression so innocent, "The corridor is large, but just above this window lattice is a pole, so I hung here."
"Why don’t you just find a rope and hang there?"
The man curved his lips slightly, smiling with pleasure, "I’m here to sleep, not to die. Besides, I didn’t know you’d suddenly open the window!"
[You didn’t know? I believe you, my ass! You black-hearted bastard! You’re rotten to the core!]
The man leaned closer to the window, blinking gently, his gaze endlessly seductive, "Lin Wanyue, did you open the window because you were worried about me?"
Yun Ran threw a pillow at him, "I was checking if you got struck dead by lightning!"
"If I got struck dead, would you save me?"
Yun Ran was speechless, glaring at him fiercely, "If you got struck dead, I’d toss you into the lake as fish feed, at least it would be of some contribution."
"Would you still dare eat the fish grown this way?"
Yun Ran gave him a black look and yanked the window shut. Follow current ɴᴏᴠᴇʟs on novelꜰire.net
But in the next moment, the window was pushed open by him, the man leaning lazily against the windowsill, looking at her, "Lin Wanyue, are you afraid of the thunder? Do you want me to come in and keep you company?"
Yun Ran shot him a cold glare, and the man immediately backed off a step, "Forget it, I’ll just stay here and keep you company."
With that, the man’s figure flashed and once again hung upside down outside her window.
His black hair danced in the wind, and with a slight smile on his sensual lips, his voice was exceptionally gentle as he said, "Don’t be afraid, sleep peacefully, I’m right here, not going anywhere."
Looking at the figure swaying with the breeze before her, Yun Ran’s mouth twitched, a cascade of black lines slipping down her forehead.
[Seriously, who could sleep with this thing hanging outside their window?!]
[How can this bastard be so infuriating!]
[I really want to stab him!]
