On the television, the news was reporting a strange incident where the pool at a nearby center had suddenly dried up.
According to the eyewitness, the pool water had suddenly disappeared when he turned around. Some were quick to conclude that paranormal activities were going on. Some had said that the pool staff was draining the water to clean up the pool but failed to inform the others.
Long Yu Heng watched as the reporter interviewed a few eyewitnesses and rubbed the space between his brow.
Fortunately, he had managed to stop the major news from reporting such news and only a small station dared to pick up this story.
Long Yu Heng glanced at the station's logo and decided that he should not be worried too much. After all, the station did not have many audiences and the news they had reported in the past was not very credible.
He should not pay too much attention to this news, right?
The most important thing was for Long Fei to control himself. If he continued to use his power recklessly like this, sooner or later, they would only be in trouble.
At this time, Long Yu Heng wished that they could stay in D Town where it would be safer for Long Fei. However, when he thought about the girl that Long Fei has been looking for, Long Yu Heng knew that they could not return now. That girl was too important. For both Long Fei and the future of their family.
The phone on the table rang loudly.
Long Yu Heng quickly grabbed his phone and walked out of the room. Once he was sure that he had not disturbed Long Fei's sleep, he shifted his gaze to his phone again.
However, his movement halted when he saw the name on the screen.
Long Yu Heng weighted the decision whether he should be answering this call or not. Knowing that he would not be at peace if he ignored this call, Long Yu Heng swiped his finger on the screen to accept the call.
"Grandpa." His tone was soft and cautious.
"What took you so long to answer the call?" Long Yuan's voice boomed through the phone.
Long Yu Heng grimaced as he pulled a certain distance between his ear and the phone. "Grandpa, I was looking after Long Fei."
"How is his condition?" Long Yuan's voice softened the moment he heard his reason. He realized that he has been impatient.
However, when he heard the news about the sunshower and the news that the pool water had suddenly evaporated, Long Yuan could not suppress his worry.
His eldest grandson's condition was very special and he did not want something to go wrong.
"Grandpa, rest assured. Long Fei is fine. He's resting at the moment," Long Yu Heng quickly reported.
"What happened? Why did he suddenly make it rain? Didn't he know that it's too dangerous for him to use his power?"
Long Yu Heng had a headache. He also did not know why Long Fei would suddenly absorb the water from the nearby local pool and make it rain.
"Grandpa, I don't know either. Long Fei said he was feeling a little unhappy." He could already imagine that he would have to listen to his grandfather's nagging for hours for something that Long Fei had done.
"Unhappy?" Long Yuan stroked his beard as he listened to his grandson's words.
The only reason Long Fei would do something so reckless was that something was affecting his mood. His eyes narrowed as Long Yuan began to wonder if it was because of something that Long Fei could not control well.
"Yu Heng, tell me. What happened?"
Long Yu Heng heaved a sigh. "Long Fei did not say too much. Grandpa, you should ask him about this matter."
A deep frown appeared on his face. Long Yuan thought about it for a moment and decided that it would be useless to ask this grandson. Although Long Yu Heng and Long Fei were close and had spent a lot of time together, Long Fei was someone who like to keep things to himself.
"When are you going to return with that girl?" Long Yuan asked. He finally remembered that he had received a report that Long Fei had finally found that girl. "You should know staying in D Town is better for someone like Long Fei."
"Grandpa, I think it might take time before we could return with this girl," Long Yu Heng reported. "Long Fei… it seemed that he has his plan. He wanted to observe the girl a little more before he decide whether he wanted to bring her back or not."
Long Yuan's anger rose. "Observe and decide?" His voice rose again. "He still wanted to observe and decide? Didn't he know that he cannot do without this girl?"
A long sigh escaped him. "Grandpa, the girl had her own life. Long Fei was reluctant to disturb her life by taking her back to the town. This is why he said that he wanted to observe and decide."
In the past few days, Long Yu Heng has been following his cousin to check on Su Ruan. However, he still could not guess what Long Fei was planning to do.
"That stupid boy!" Long Yuan was frustrated. "If it was not for that thing he does when he was younger, would things turn this way? Tell him to immediately return to D Town!"
Long Yu Heng chose to stay silent. He knew that it was no use to say anything when his grandfather was still angry.
His gaze shifted to the room where Long Fei was still asleep. He wondered if Long Fei would choose to give up and return to D Town immediately.
…
On another side of the city…
Lin Qing stared at her friend with worry.
Su Ruan had returned home after meeting Yu Zhi Yi and she had thought that Su Ruan would return home with a bright smile on her face.
She had never thought that the moment Su Ruan entered the door, she would slide down to the floor and start to cry.
Her clothes were wet by the rain and she was crying aggrievedly.
It took Lin Qing a while before she could coax her friend. When she finally heard what had happened during the meeting, Lin Qing could not help but sympathize with Su Ruan.
The man he had loved for years is getting married soon. Moreover… that man had invited her to be his best woman.
To stand by the person you loved and watch as he marries another woman… Lin Qing could not imagine what Su Ruan was feeling at this moment.
Nothing she said could ease her pain. At this time, the only thing Lin Qing could do was to let Su Ruan vent her feelings.
Only after venting and letting go of her feelings would Su Ruan be able to come back and stand up stronger.
