Chapter 145: Worry for the Shichiyou Herb

Translator: Sparrow Translations  Editor: Sparrow Translations

The largest storm in all of the history of Qingshui City started at 6.30pm. It began with extreme intensity and got even heavier as time went on, only dwindling when the clock struck eight thirty.

Even though the rain was now much lighter compared to the peak of the storm, it was still heavier than the usual rain that the city got. Just now, when the thunderstorm had been at its peak, the water level almost exceeded the steps and threatened to flow into the rooms. Now, the rainwater was finally beginning to recede and flow out of the yard towards the streets.

“I’m hungry!” Zhuang Meifeng’s voice rang out from Ling Yun’s bedroom. Ling Yun’s lips curved into a smile as he shook his head in disbelief at how she was asking for food now that she was warm. He arrived at the bedroom and without a greeting, he entered the room.

Zhuang Meifeng was currently lying on the bed while pinning her wet hair up into a bun. The blanket that was covering her body slowly slid to the ground due to her constant movements. This happened just when Ling Yun entered, allowing him to marvel at the scene.

“Why didn’t you knock?!” Upon the entry of Ling Yun, Zhuang Meifeng’s hands immediately went to grab the corner of the blanket and pull it up to her chin while glaring at him. Her untied hair tumbled down her bare shoulders and back, causing Ling Yun to stand dazed and in awe of her body.

“Hey, what do you mean? I’m returning to my own room, so why do I have to knock?” Ling Yun replied with furrowed brows before moving to sit on the bed as he continued saying, “I moved in yesterday so I did not have time to shop for food.”

“Huh?! Then, then what are we going to do? I have not had my dinner yet!” She had indeed not eaten her dinner and after being holed up in the blankets for half a day, her stomach was growling.

Pointing to the storm outside, Ling Yun said, “Hang on for a while more, the rain will stop in another hour. I have not eaten dinner either!” He had not eaten dinner but he had had a heavy meal for lunch at the Zhuang Yuan Building and was therefore not that hungry.

“Seriously, it is only March and the rain is so heavy!” Zhuang Meifeng grumbled about the weather after realizing that she had no other options. She had not seen such a heavy thunderstorm in her entire life!

“Hey, do you have any clean clothes that you can lend me?” She was not cold but she did not want to stay naked under Ling Yun’s blanket.

Taking one glance at her, Ling Yun took out the two Versace shirts that Xue Meining had given him and threw them at her, saying, “The two are the same so just choose one to wear.”

“Versace?!” Zhuang Meifeng squealed as she lowered her head to eye the brand new shirts. However, she got over her shock fast. The guy had a million dollar cheque and he had casually taken out six hundred thousand dollars so it was not so surprising that he had Versace shirts. She had been wearing branded clothes since young and was very used to such things. Thus, she was shocked for only a short moment before picking up the package.

“What a big size!” Zhuang Meifeng mumbled. How was she going to wear this shirt without a bra and… She couldn’t possibly wear this by itself, right? If she did so, wouldn’t Ling Yun be able to see everything?

“Do you have a jacket and… a new pair of shorts?” She asked shyly with a burning face while chewing on her bottom lip. Nodding, he took out a brand new Nike jacket before finding a fresh pair of shorts and threw it all at Zhuang Meifeng. “Is that all?”

“What? These…shorts have been worn by you!” She said in horror as she used her thumb and forefinger to pick up the large pair of shorts. Finding her actions funny, he wondered who in the world would be cleaner than him after he had gone through so many rounds of cleansing.

Looking at her from the corner of his eyes, he rolled his eyes and said, “I just washed it. It’s very clean but if you do not want it, you can wear your…” Ling Yun nodded at her pile of wet clothes.

This stupid Ling Yun! It turns out that he has seen everything! She felt embarrassed but chose not to voice it out. “Go out first. I’m…going to wear the clothes!”

Without looking back, he took his new Li Ning sportswear and left the room to change. After quickly changing his clothes and socks, he used his hands to pull at the clothes. Comparing them to his previous clothes, he nodded and mumbled, “The shirt is much looser!”

At 180 centimeters and barely 90 kilograms, the fats on his waist, thighs, and stomach were practically all gone. The only word to describe his body now was strong. He would achieve the perfect body if he cut down another 10 kilograms but losing weight was getting harder. It was not because his training had slowed down but rather, due to the lower amount of fats. The effect would, thus, be less obvious as compared to the start.

“Are you done? I’m coming out now!” Zhuang Meifeng shouted from inside the bedroom.

“Done!”

Zhuang Meifeng waddled out of the room with a red face upon hearing his reply. Ling Yun was unable to hold his laughter after seeing her outfit. “Not bad, not bad. You look very fashionable!”

She was wearing his entire Nike sportswear outfit, making her seem plump. Furthermore, she wore the Versace shirt and on her, it looked like a very short dress which barely covered her butt. She had her high-heeled sandals on and the outfit seemed extremely trendy and unique.

“Are you done changing?” Ling Yun teased. She had pulled the zipper up fully which covered her entire body, preventing him from seeing anything.

“Mind your own business!” Zhuang Meifeng rolled her eyes while walking and sat down on the sofa. Under the comfortable shirt, her breasts bounced due to the lack of support but this was unseen by Ling Yun.

“When is this rain going to stop? When it does, you have to buy me a few shirts first!” She sighed as she looked at the rain with wrinkled brows. What was most urgent now was not her empty stomach but her clothes. If she did not resolve this issue, she would be unable to do anything else!

“Don’t worry. The rain just got lighter and will stop by 10 pm.” Ling Yun said blandly. He did not want to get wet but he was very worried about the Shichiyou Herb beside the river. With such heavy rain, it might get washed away by the river water.

“When I’m done changing my clothes, we’ll go for supper and shopping together, alright?” Zhuang Meifeng quietly asked while fixing her beautiful eyes on him.

“Alright!” Ling Yun nodded in agreement. “We have nothing to do now due to the heavy rain so tell me more about the Sun family…”

“This time, it is Sun Xing’s mother that came down. She’s called Niu Fenjiao and she’s…”

After an hour of conversation, Ling Yu was well informed about the situation with the Sun family. Upon seeing that the storm had lessened to a drizzle, he stood up.

The pair walked to the door and was able to see the water in the yard recede at a fast pace. Ten minutes ago, the rain had reduced and now, the water barely reached their ankles. The drainage system of Qingshui City was pretty good and if not for such a heavy and rare thunderstorm, there would not be excess water much less a pool of water.

“Many places are flooded so there must be many collapsed buildings…” Ling Yun says to himself while gazing into the distance.

“Definitely! We still don’t know what collapsed just now but it will definitely be in the headlines tomorrow!” Zhuang Meifeng’s heartbeat started to race in anger at the mere thought of the rumbles. Seeing the red tiles of the yard appear, Ling Yun smiled before walking out. “The air is so fresh!”

Zhuang Meifeng followed him with a face full of excitement. She spun in a circle with her arms spread open and took a deep breath, saying, “It really is so fresh!”

Ling Yun was awed by her change, from being so afraid at the start to spinning excitedly in circles. “Stay home for now while I go out to check it out!” He was exceptionally worried for his Shichiyou Herb and now that the rain had stopped, it was the first thing he needed to check on to soothe his mind.

“Remember to buy my clothes! Um…and a bra and under…”Zhuang Meifeng hurriedly called out when Ling Yun turns to leave.

“What’s your size?” Ling Yun stopped, looking back at her chest.

“36D…”Zhuang Meifeng blushed instantly.

“Got it!” He chuckled and lightly skipped out of the yard. As it was nearing 10 pm, he used his Thousand Miles Godly Steps to sprint towards the Shichiyou Herb like a ball of white lightning. Upon reaching the road beside the river, he couldn’t help but curse, “D*mn!” after seeing the river that had broadened to four times its initial width.
