On the way back, the field path that had once been filled with a fresh fragrance had now completely turned into a solitary road in the dead of night. At this usual hour when no one paid attention, the sound of the air being split stepped forward against the wind, splashing up puddles of mud in the pits. Battling the wind and rain, someone was running back in a hurry toward the nearby mountain not far away.
Jian Xin was simply at a loss for words! She had put on her cloak while placing Liang Yu, whom she held in her arms, onto her back, using the cloak to cover and block the rain. Then she dashed home without a moment's pause. Liang Yu was bizarrely well-behaved, hugging Jian Xin snugly like that, except that she still wriggled free from the cloak that had completely wrapped her up completely, exposing a pair of large eyes resting on Jian Xin's shoulder. Blinking, she gazed at everything in the dark night. Following close behind her was a small figure—it was Little Beast!
Just as Jian Xin was about to vault over the wall, Little Beast had blocked her path, swearing a mouthful of foul language! It kept blocking her and refusing to let her go home! The sky was growing darker and darker, not the darkness of a setting sun, but the darkness of roiling, densely packed dark clouds!
