Just then, the power went off, and Lu Lian shrank in her place, but it was a relief that she could see Ming Rusheng in the light coming from the fireplace.
Ming Rushing frowned as the lights went off, "As expected."
Commenting, he went to get the lamp which he had already prepared, expecting to face such a situation any time.
Lu Lian was not the one to get scared so quickly, but she was new to this place, which was away from the bunch of humankind. The crazy rain, a completely dark place with the lightning's frightening sound, made her feel scared.
Ming Rusheng looked at Lu Lian but couldn't see her expressions clearly as she was on the darker side of the room, but the way she shrank in the one corner of the couch, was enough to know she was scared.
Holding the lamp, he went to her and finally could see her face. She tried to act tough and smiled a little, showing she was fine, but one could see inside she was scared.
