Chapter 218: Super Flood 4
Chu Yian was freezing cold.
The warm water washed away the damp stickiness of the rain, and only after blow-drying her hair did she feel alive again.
She spent quite a while bathing, and by the time she came out, Lu Qingyuan had already moved everything from the car into the house.
Some of the boxes were soaked through by the rain, and in the process, it was inevitable that their contents would be seen.
Rubber dinghy, survival gear, raincoats…
“You bought a lot of stuff. Are you preparing for a flood?”
“Yes.”
Lu Qingyuan had only asked casually, so he didn’t expect Chu Yian to answer so seriously, which left him a bit at a loss.
“The news said the heavy rain will stop tomorrow or the day after.”
“Do you trust the weather forecast?”
Chu Yian countered.
Lu Qingyuan choked again.
Chu Yian continued, “I have accurate information. There will definitely be a major flood within the next five days.”
Lu Qingyuan: “So you spent all of your advance salary on these things?”
Chu Yian nodded at her words.
Seeing her admit it, Lu Qingyuan rubbed her forehead, “What all did you buy?”
Chu Yian’s gaze swept over the goods, she found her backpack, and pulled out the crumpled cargo list from the damp bag, “Just these things. Oh, no gun.”
Lu Qingyuan’s fair, slender, and distinctly jointed fingers held the crumpled paper. The stark contrast between the two made one linger on his hands for a couple of seconds.
“A gun? You really dare to think big.”
Lu Qingyuan noticed her gaze, his fingertips unconsciously rubbed together, then he looked away, “It’s just a flood, why prepare so much?”
“Just in case.”
Chu Yian said as a matter of course, “If all the buildings are submerged, we can at least escape by boat.”
But now, they had to move these things upstairs.
Not ‘they’, just her alone.
Lu Qingyuan turned and went upstairs, leaving her with only a reminder not to damage his collections on the first and second floors.
Chu Yian:…I really appreciate you!
By the time she had moved all the items upstairs one by one and arranged them, it was already nine in the evening.
The only comforting thing was that there was food left for her in the house, a very simple rice in soup, not at all as stern and refined as Teacher Lu herself appeared.
Fortunately, after eating, she could finally get some good rest.
She thought about the supplies she had gathered today, feeling a great weight lifted from her heart, and she expected to have a good night’s sleep.
However, two hours later, she was awakened by the sound of thunder and lightning outside the window.
It was pouring outside, and the power was already out inside.
The surroundings were pitch black, and Chu Yian heard a sound from outside her bedroom.
She picked up her flashlight, opened the door, and walked out, seeing Lu Qingyuan standing at her doorway, dressed in pure black silk pajamas.
Under the flashlight’s beam, the smooth muscles hidden beneath the pajamas were faintly visible.
He wasn’t wearing his glasses, and his narrow eyes were even deeper than before.
Chu Yian couldn’t help but let out a “wow” in her heart when she saw him like this.
A man in black pajamas is like a woman in black stockings.
A little suggestive, yet very attractive.
“Finally, you opened the door.”
Lu Qingyuan had been knocking for a while.
Chu Yian dispelled her impure thoughts at his voice, returning to seriousness, “What’s wrong?”
Lu Qingyuan: “The rainwater has already flooded the first floor, and the water is rising at a strange speed.”
“Did you call the police and fire department?”
Chu Yian rubbed her eyes, extended the flashlight out the window, and shone it downstairs…
