C81 Afraid of Thunder

1Xi Muchen looked at Lo Xi, who was so angry that her hair stood on end, and found it quite amusing. He didn't tease her anymore. He went around the end of the bed and went to the other side of the bed. He turned off the lights and also laid down to sleep.

The two meters large bed was enough for the two of them to sleep without disturbing each other.

After the lights went out, Xi Muchen could not fall asleep no matter what.

He had never given half of his bed to anyone. When he thought about the little girl beside him, he really could not sleep well.

Especially when he laid down, he could not understand how Lo Xi kept swaying in front of his eyes. He did not understand why there was a little girl like Lo Xi.

Xi Muchen, who had been single for so many years, could not sleep because of a woman for the first time. She was even a little girl. Now that she was sleeping beside him, how could he not be excited?

Not to mention Xi Muchen could not sleep, Lo Xi could not sleep either.

Once the light went out, the surroundings quietened down. Lo Xi opened her eyes.

Everything in the darkness slowly became clear in front of her eyes. Lo Xi did not feel sleepy at all.

When she thought about Xi Muchen on the bed, she could not sleep.

As she was thinking, she suddenly saw a flash of lightning outside the window. That lightning struck half of the sky, and what followed was a loud rumble of thunder.

Lo Xi suddenly sat up.

She sat up immediately and naturally also shocked Xi Muchen.

Xi Muchen also sat up and asked Lo Xi, "What's wrong?"

"It's thunder." Lo Xi said in a low voice.

The bed was two meters wide. Xi Muchen was at least one meter away from her. He listened to what she said. He replied, "Tonight is a thunderstorm. Thunder and lightning are inevitable."

Lo Xi did not say anything.

Xi Muchen saw her sitting there and was about to turn on the light, but Lo Xi stopped him and said, "Don't turn on the light. If you turn on the light, you will not be able to sleep."

Xi Muchen took back his hand that was about to turn on the lights. He leaned against the bed and looked at Lo Xi again.

Lo Xi's voice seemed to be a little shaky. Was she afraid?

Lightning flashed and thunder rumbled outside the window again.

Lo Xi was sitting there, and something seemed to be wrong with her.

Xi Muchen could not help but ask, "Lo Xi, you are not afraid of lightning, are you?"

"No, I don't think so," Lo Xi answered faintly.

Was she afraid of thunder?

She should be afraid...

It had been many years since she knew the concept of fear. However, every time lightning flashed and thunder rumbled, she felt like she could not sleep. Her mind kept thinking about the dark times when she was a child.

Before she was adopted by the orphanage, it was also this night when lightning flashed and thunder rumbled. She saw a child who had escaped being beaten to death by a human trafficker. Blood splattered all over the ground. That was an unerasable gray.

She had never been able to tell outsiders about those corrupted appearances in her memories.

Qin Luo's childhood was actually very dull, but Qin Luo was also never willing to show her weak side to others.

She went to the Qin family when she was a teenager. Before that, she stayed in the orphanage for a few years, but before she went to the orphanage, those few years were the darkest days of her life.2

In those few years, she had seen too many life and death killings. The kidnapped children were really pitiful...

"Lo Xi?" Xi Muchen felt that Lo Xi's emotions were a little unstable and called out worriedly again.

But Lo Xi ignored him.

The more she behaved like this, the more worried Xi Muchen became.

He frowned slightly and moved towards Lo Xi. He reached out and gently patted Lo Xi's back.
