Since the two residents on the 18th floor were not easy to deal with, the people living in the corridor on the 18th floor moved to the 17th floor.
Yan Luo enjoyed a few days of quiet time.
A few days later, the flood reached the eighth floor, and nearly half of the owners in the building lived in the corridor.
At this time, the natural gas and tap water were all cut off.
The owners living on high floors also began to panic. Without electricity or gas, even if they had stored food, they had no way to cook and eat.
Besides, most families have no food left.
Yan Feng was hit hard and has been studying very hard these days.
Yan Luo was instructing him on his movements when the cell phone in his pocket rang.
The caller is Mr. Yan.
She frowned, slid her slender fingers across the phone screen, hesitated for a moment, and finally answered the call.
Yan Bingtao's voice came,
"When did you divorce Huo Qinglang? Who gave you the courage to make such a big decision on your own? Didn't you even discuss it with us?!"
The Yan family is a newly wealthy family, a nouveau riche, but the Huo family is different. The Huo family is an aristocratic family that has been entrenched in Shangyang City for a hundred years.
They tried their best to marry her into the Huo family just to get some of the Huo family's glory. So she was not welcomed in the Huo family, and they would only ask her to reflect on herself and serve Huo Qinglang well.
In her previous life, the four members of the Yan family finally joined the Huo family. After her talent rose, she lived a pretty good life in the Huo family.
But in the end, Yan Xiner, Huo Qinglang and Dai Qianqian teamed up to harm her.
Facing Yan Bingtao's questioning, Yan Luo said calmly,
"A marriage without love will not end well."
"Nonsense! You are just too narrow-minded. As a man, it's okay for him to have a few lovers outside. You just turn a blind eye to it. After all, you are still the Young Lady of the Huo family! How did I educate you? I educated you to be such a jealous woman! Now, the Huo family completely hates us. What do you think we should do?!"
Yan Luo rubbed his fingers on the table for a while.
Yan Bingtao and his wife also doted on her for more than twenty years.
How hard must a person's heart be to take back all the love he has given in an instant?
Maybe, I spoiled her at that time because she was obedient.
In her previous life, she had almost lost all hope in Yan Bingtao and his wife. Now, facing Yan Bingtao's wrath, she was not as angry as she had imagined.
"It is better to rely on yourself than on others."
"You stupid girl!" A rude female voice came from the other end of the phone. "Do you know what's going on outside? Our villa has been flooded. Now thanks to Ru Jin, we have a high-rise apartment we bought outside, but your father and I haven't eaten for a day. If you hadn't divorced Huo Qinglang, we could have moved into the Huo family mansion right now. Why would we have to starve?"
Although the Huo family's villa was also flooded, the Huo family has a manor on Qingliang Mountain, which is where the real aristocratic families in Shangyang City are based, and the flood could not flood them.
In his previous life, Yan Luo moved there with his Yan family.
"Speak now, you ungrateful bastard. We have raised you for more than 20 years in vain. It is true that you can never raise a child who is not our own. If it was Xin'er who married him, she would definitely be obedient. You'd better get some food for us now, otherwise I will suspend your card and spread the word that you are ungrateful."
Hearing this, Yan Luo hung up the phone directly.
Yan Feng said angrily,
"Why are they like this? It's raining so hard right now, and they never cared about how you were doing out there alone, sister. They even wanted you to go out in the rain to bring them food. This is really too much!"
Yan Luo added the Yan family's numbers to the blacklist while smiling.
"So, next time you see them, don't be soft-hearted and ignore them."
"I understand, sister."
Yan Luo walked to the window. The rain outside was like the sky splashing water madly. The raindrops hit the windows with a thudding sound. The sky was gray and the accumulated water downstairs was like a boundless ocean. The wind blew up wave after wave, hitting the tall buildings fiercely.
Yan Luo suddenly remembered something.
Buildings soaked by floods will collapse one after another after a few years, and the only safe place to live is in the mountains.
The reason why she didn't find a mountain to settle down before the heavy rain was, firstly, the heavy rain would cause landslides and mudslides, making it unsafe to live there now; secondly, the country also prohibits private mining on undeveloped mountains.
After the heavy rain stops and before the buildings collapse, she must settle down in the mountains.
The heavy rain will stop briefly for five hours tomorrow, so she has to go out to get supplies.
"Xiao Feng, go to bed early tonight. We have something to do tomorrow."
Yan Luo only entered the space tonight and secretly ate a meal of golden soup beef rice noodles before coming out to sleep. He was not busy in the space.
She hadn't had a good night's sleep since her rebirth, so she planned to go to bed early under the pretext of going out tomorrow.
Some people just won't allow it.
At three o'clock in the morning, there was a knock on the door.
Yan Luo opened his eyes suddenly.
This knocking sound was different from the previous ones. Before, someone was violently banging on the railing door in the corridor, and the whole corridor was filled with loud clanging noises.
This time, it was her door that was knocked. Yes, the big door.
The gate and the railing door are more than one meter apart, so it is impossible to knock on the gate.
The sound didn't sound like it was caused by a stick or some other external object, but rather a normal fist hitting someone.
Yan Luo sat up from the bed, and Yan Bao beside him suddenly rolled half a circle in the air and opened his hazy little eyes.
Yan Luo turned on his phone to check the surveillance footage.
In the gray surveillance screen, a man was standing outside the railing door.
He was wearing a large cloak, so his face could not be seen clearly. He bent his index finger, clenched his fist, and tapped it lightly.
The strange thing was that he didn't knock on the door, but the door made a sound.
Yan Luo frowned tightly.
After a while, the man raised his head and looked towards the surveillance camera in the small window.
Yan Luo was caught off guard and met this gaze through the screen of his mobile phone.
It's him!
No wonder.
Yan Luo got up from the bed and put on her clothes. Seeing that she was about to leave, Yan Bao hurriedly followed behind her.
Yan Luo turned on the small light at the door and opened the door. The man in the cloak opposite took off his hat and smiled.
I couldn't see his clothes clearly in the surveillance video, but when I opened the door, I saw that he was wearing a thin black cloak with white shorts underneath.
The man's slender calves were faintly visible under his cloak.
This outfit fell into the sleepy eyes of Yan Feng, and there was only one word to describe it,
Introverted and reserved.
Definitely not a good person.
He couldn't be here to seduce my sister.
The man took the initiative to speak,
"Hello, I am Li Wei, a disciple of the Shangqingshan Sect of Wuqing Mountain. Can I come in and talk to you?"
"cannot!"
Yan Feng rushed in front of Yan Luo, opened his arms to protect Yan Luo behind him, and stared at Li Wei as if he was guarding against a thief.
