Step Aside, My CEO Ex-Husband!-Chapter 88 - 89 You Will Have Good Luck 5

"Stay here and don’t move, I’ll go out and check."

"No! I want to be with you!" Tian Xingyun’s voice trembled.

She was extremely afraid of thunder and lightning, and didn’t dare to stay alone.

"It’s pitch dark, stay where you are and don’t move." Huo Shaohua, using the light from his phone, walked out of the living room to check the fuse box.

He only stayed here occasionally and hadn’t hired anyone to manage the place.

Tian Xingyun sat on the sofa, uneasy. Outside, thunder and lightning struck again.

She shivered in fear and didn’t dare to walk around in the darkness.

If she tripped, it would be terrible.

After a while, Huo Shaohua returned, his body drenched from the rain.

"How is it?" Tian Xingyun stood up nervously to ask him.

"It’s not just us; the whole neighborhood is out of power, probably due to the lightning."

"What should we do then..." Tian Xingyun frowned, her small face scrunched up in fear.

"Are you afraid of thunder?"

"You’re allowed to have no sense of direction, but I’m not allowed to be afraid of thunder?" Tian Xingyun retorted angrily.

"Fair enough."

"Tonight, I want to sleep in the same room as you." Tian Xingyun said seriously. She didn’t dare to sleep alone on such a stormy night.

Especially in such a lonely villa, she was even more afraid to sleep alone.

She wasn’t afraid at home because her parents and brothers were there.

Whenever she was scared, she would just cover herself with a blanket and fall asleep.

"Alright." Huo Shaohua frowned. Although reluctant, he agreed to her request.

He could tell she was genuinely terrified.

She put on her shoes and walked to his side, gripping his arm tightly.

Following him, they used the light from his phone to go upstairs together. freēwēbnovel.com

In the room, it was still pitch black. Tian Xingyun immediately took off her shoes and jumped into bed, hiding under the blanket.

"Aren’t there any candles?" No electricity and thunder made it really terrifying.

Having candles would bring some light to the room, making it less scary.

"No." Huo Shaohua took off his clothes and used a towel to dry himself from the rain.

He was now only wearing boxer shorts.

"What are you doing? Get in bed quickly, or you’ll catch a cold." Tian Xingyun popped her head out and looked at him.

Is this person dumb? He took off his clothes and was slowly drying himself.

Isn’t he afraid of getting sick?

"In such a hurry?" Huo Shaohua raised an eyebrow at her flirtatiously.

He put the towel on the cabinet, walked to the side of the bed, and lifted the blanket to get in.

"Hey, can you put on some clothes?" Tian Xingyun gave him a sidelong glance, thinking it wasn’t quite appropriate.

"What are you afraid of?" Huo Shaohua got under the blanket, feeling warmth spread throughout his body.

Because she got into bed first, the blanket was already warm from her body heat.

This feeling was quite strange, having someone pre-warm the bed for him.

Getting into bed was no longer a cold affair but rather a cozy one.

They lay on the same bed, a small distance separating them.

With someone by her side, she didn’t feel scared and gradually fell asleep.

But Huo Shaohua couldn’t sleep. He didn’t know if it was because the bed was too warm.

His body felt very hot, and he couldn’t help but keep looking at the woman beside him.

The thunder and lightning had ceased, and heavy rain started pouring outside.

The sound of the rain was loud and continuous.

Huo Shaohua heard her deep, steady breathing and turned over quietly.

He lay on his side, looking at the woman beside him. For the first time, it wasn’t Song Yi lying next to him.

Seeing her face made a wave of anger surge in his heart again.

Once Andy’s investigation results came out, he would teach her a good lesson.

How dare she scheme against him and end up pregnant with his child.

It rained all night and stopped by daybreak.

The morning air was very fresh, and water was still dripping from the leaves.

Birds had already started chirping.

Huo Shaohua opened his eyes, only to feel that his hand was numb.

Turning his head, he saw Tian Xingyun’s face close to his. Her sleep posture was still very unattractive.

She was drooling again.
