Chapter 84
After hanging up the phone, Su Jingyan clutched the tissue paper used to wipe the umbrella with his fingers. He was beginning to lose his mind inexplicably, and his head felt dizzy. He paused in place, and it couldn’t be discerned from his exterior what things he was thinking about.
“Rumble–”
A burst of thunder happened without warning outside the door.
Originally it was just a drizzle of rain, but it started to change. Strong winds blew across the outside world, and raindrops splashed onto the ground.
The sudden sound made Su Jingyan, who was distracted, tremble with fright. His body shook, and his heart trembled.
He didn’t know if it was just the sound that had frightened him deep inside, but he suddenly sat up from the sofa. He was still holding Lu Yichen’s umbrella tightly in his hand, his fingers were clenching tighter and tighter.
Unaware of what was going on with himself, Su Jingyan’s chest began to feel tight. He even walked back and forth in the room for no reason, pacing back and forth in place.
And there was an indescribable feeling of anxiety in his heart, as if something was missing from his heart.
Su Jingyan felt so depressed that he almost couldn’t breathe. He swallowed, tightly covered his heart, and frowned.
His thoughts started wandering all over the place.
It’s raining so heavily. Is Lu Yichen home yet?
I still have his umbrella with me!
Will he get wet? Will he get sick?
The more Su Jingyan thought about it, the more unsettled he felt.
He even felt more and more annoyed that he didn’t catch up at that time.
The more Su Jingyan thought about it the more uncomfortable he felt, his head drooped and he looked very lacking in energy.
Just as Su Jingyan was thinking this.
“Da da da.”
Suddenly there was a muffled thudding of footsteps outside the door.
Su Jingyan’s feet that were originally walking back and forth in the room also stopped, and his expression was slightly suffocated, showing a brief blankness.
Because he rented a residential house the house was very small, with only one tenant on each floor—and he was the only one living on the entire 4th floor.
But the footsteps outside the door were obviously walking towards his room, not sounding like they were climbing the stairs, and the sounds were gradually approaching.
Who is it?

Because the footsteps outside the door not only did not get farther and farther away, but even approached step by step, tending to get closer and closer to the door.
Following the rumble of lightning and thunder in the sky, the footsteps outside the door became louder and louder.
Su Jingyan inhaled a breath of cold air, and then held his breath. His scalp began to feel numb, and cold sweat broke out on his back, as if three thousand hairs were standing on end all over his body.
“Thump thump.”
It was the sound of a racing heart.
Su Jingyan pressed down on that location and felt a slight pain in his heart.
“Dong dong dong.”
Someone started knocking on the door.
Su Jingyan was startled and didn’t dare to move.
Fear was like blood flowing upstream in his heart, then spurting out suddenly, buzzing in his mind.
Should he open the door?
Su Jingyan’s cold sweat slid down from his forehead to his eyelids, then his nose, mouth… The cold sweat slid down faster and faster, more and more, and his body seemed to be wrapped in ice. Goosebumps appeared all over his body.
“Dong dong dong.”
The knocking on the door kept going.
“Who is it?” Su Jingyan shouted towards the door, his voice a little stiff.
“Dong dong dong dong dong—.”
Not only did the knocking on the door not stop when he heard his voice, but it was as if he was having a convulsion, and the knocking on the door became more frequent.
Outside the window, another golden line cut through the sky, splitting the dim sky in half, followed by a thunderous sound that seemed almost about to explode through the entire universe.
The blood all over Su Jingyan’s body froze, and he was a little at a loss what to do.
He took a breath, and with a dazed fear, he carefully moved a step towards the door, and tentatively shouted at the door again, “Who is it?”
The knocking on the door paused because of his words. It was obvious that the person outside the door heard his question.
但奇怪的是，门口的那人不仅没有回答他的问题，敲门的声音仅顿了几秒，就又“pong pong pong”的砸下来。
But the strange thing was that the man at the door not only did not answer his question, but the knock on the door only paused for a few seconds, and then the “dong dong dong” sounded out again.
This time, the sound of these hits was like someone hitting Su Jingyan’s heart with a small hammer, getting deeper into his inner defenses bit by bit, and then giving him a head-on blow.
F*ck.
Who could it be?
Su Jingyan’s eyes were a little red, and his brain began to feel anxious.
He sat on the floor between the sofa and the coffee table, hugged his legs, buried his head into the sofa, and closed his eyes tightly, as if trying to ignore the trouble of these sounds, trying to pretend not to hear them. But reality was cruel. Even if Su Jingyan covers his ears and buries his head, the sounds that could be heard around him still continued to sound and wouldl not stop or disappear because of his meaningless actions.
Just when Su Jingyan was feeling nervous and uneasy because of the knock on the door, another set of hurried footsteps sounded outside the door.
Su Jingyan’s ears couldn’t help but twitch when he heard this sound, and he slowly raised his head from the sofa with some confusion, his eyes slowly filled with fear.
He glanced at the door, his body trembling, and clutched his heart with his right hand, listening carefully to the sounds outside the door.
There was only a “click” sound similar to when bones were broken, followed by another loud noise, as if something hit the ground.
There came a chaotic sound of physical fighting outside the door.
Su Jingyan was shocked and his pupils shrank.
It was unclear what was happening.
But he didn’t know if it was just his unfounded premonition. This time, he mustered up the courage and slowly sat up from the ground. Although he was still hesitant in his steps,
There were some indescribable emotions in his heart, and his heart was jumping up and down.
The rumbling thunder outside the door did not stop, and together with the sound of kicking and physical fighting, the noises sounded very chaotic, as if an earthquake had occurred. Something kept rubbing on the ground, and then was smashed, and someone made a muffled cry.
“Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu!” It was the cry of a boy.
Su Jingyan’s left hand rested on the doorknob. Hearing the shouts outside the door, he paused slightly and his breathing stopped for a second.
His right hand tightly grasped the kitchen knife he had just taken out of the kitchen for self-defense.
With a “click”, Su Jingyan tried his best to open the door. Just when he saw the situation outside clearly, the knife in his hand almost slipped out. His whole body was shocked on the spot, staring at the scene in front of him in horror.
In the sky, another torn golden thread appeared, illuminating the dim surrounding environment and the two fighting bodies on the ground.
The man in black who had the upper hand had already completely grabbed the man’s neck when the door lock clicked, pressed him to the ground and punched him with all his strength. He wanted to kill the other person with such intensity that the color of his eyes turned slightly scarlet with a bit of bloodthirst and madness.
The boy who was strangled was grabbing the man in black suit’s hand with both hands. He was foaming at the mouth, his eyes were wide open, seeming about to burst, squeezed out red and bloodshot. He was almost paralyzed. He couldn’t breathe, but his legs were still kicking around, struggling in vain, vaguely attempting to shout something.
Su Jingyan was completely stunned by the scene in front of him.
He almost subconsciously rushed forward and tried hard to grab the man in black suit’s hand. His body was even shaking uncontrollably as he shouted in horror, “Yichen, let go quickly, he will die!”
That’s right! The man in black in front of him was none other than that person!
It was Lu Yichen!
It was Lu Yichen who he had been thinking about just now, worried about whether something would happen to the other!
Su Jingyan didn’t understand what was going on in front of him at all, and he didn’t know who the person Lu Yichen was choking. His mind was like a mess at this moment, and he couldn’t figure out the situation at this moment.
But at this moment, his heart was full of fear. If Lu Yichen really strangled this boy to death, he couldn’t dare to think about what Lu Yichen would face.
Lu Yichen turned his head sideways and looked at Su Jingyan. He still had the same face that was so pale that it looked like it had been soaked in formalin. His lips were pressed into a tight line. There were water stains all over his body, and he looked very frightening.
His eyes were as ferocious as a wolf king, and his dark and vicious eyes were clearly exposed in the air. Even when he looked at Su Jingyan, he could not hide the dangerous murderous intent.
But…
Even so.
Su Jingyan still didn’t feel that the Lu Yichen in front of him was scary. He only felt that his chest was getting more and more stuffy, as if he was choking and couldn’t breathe.
He just felt that at this moment, Lu Yichen looked at him and he felt a little angry for no reason.
There were also some…
Feelings of distress…
Lu Yichen said nothing and narrowed his eyes, as if he was thinking about something.
Finally, under Su Jingyan’s pleading eyes, Lu Yichen’s hand finally let go of the man lying on the ground, and he slowly stood up from the ground.
Su Jingyan looked at this farce and seemed to vaguely understand something in his heart.
Pointing at the man on the ground who was gasping for air and still moaning from pain, his eyes fell firmly on Lu Yichen, and his voice was slightly crying, and he asked, “Just now, it was him… who was knocking on my door, right?”
It was you who rushed out to protect me, right?
Lu Yichen said nothing, his brows still furrowed tightly together into deep lines.
The answer had long been self-evident.
There was another bolt of lightning, giving the world a brief light.
This time, Su Jingyan clearly saw a large bruise on Lu Yichen’s right face.
Su Jingyan’s heart tightened, his pupils trembled, and his eyes suddenly shrank, as if he had been stimulated by something, and his whole aura also underwent earth-shaking changes.
He rubbed it for a moment, turned around, and violently held down the boy’s shoulders, stepped on the boy’s abdomen with one leg, put the knife in his hand against the boy’s throat, and said viciously, “Talk, why are you harassing me!”
At this moment, Su Jingyan was like a cornered rabbit. Someone had touched his bottom line, causing him to start a counterattack.
The boy was lying on the ground, his body still shaking, his eyes full of fear.
However, his eyes were not looking at Su Jingyan.
Instead he looked behind Su Jingyan in the direction of the shadowy man.
Lu Yichen tilted his head, stood still, and raised the corners of his mouth silently, the light in his eyes flashed.
Wonder who that guy was 😱
As always, Lu Yichen coming in to save the day <3
