"Yunniang, what's happened?" Gu Ya was sleeping with his arms around his little wife, so when she got up, it naturally woke him up too.
Without time to explain to Gu Ya, Su Yunjin jumped out of bed, put on her shoes, and ran out.
"Ouch!"
Gu Baofu and Mrs. Zhang had just gone to pick locks when they stepped on something. Then a wooden basin fell from above, water sloshing inside it, drenching both Gu Baofu and Mrs. Zhang from head to toe.
Gu Baofu was tall, but Mrs. Zhang stood a head shorter than Gu Baofu. When the basin fell, it first hit Gu Baofu on the back, and then with a clatter landed on Mrs. Zhang's head.
Mrs. Zhang hadn't expected to be hit by a basin and saw stars as it struck her, the sudden event leaving both her and Gu Baofu too shocked to react.
They heard Su Yunjin and her husband's door open; Gu Baofu and Mrs. Zhang, startled, shuddered, knowing that the noise had disturbed Su Yunjin.
