However, it was difficult for her to successfully apply for a position that even a high school graduate could handle.
It was late at night, and Cheng Liuli fell asleep in a daze.
The sky was overcast.
Suddenly, a bolt of lightning cut through the dark night like a sharp dagger.
Immediately afterwards, there was a boom and thunder cracked outside the window.
Cheng Liuli woke up suddenly, subconsciously curled up on the bed and covered his head with the quilt like an ostrich.
Ever since she was little, she has been most afraid of thunder. Every time there is a thunder, her face will turn white from fear, like a trembling bird, and she would like to curl up into a ball.
When she was young, her mother would come to her room every time there was a thunderstorm, hold her in her arms, and try her best to comfort her.
Later, Chu Yilun appeared, and from then on he played the role of comforting.

But now, they are separated from each other, and Chu Yilun will never hold her tenderly again, and will never cover her panicked eyes with his long slender palms to comfort her helplessness and fear.

Ah, no, my mother's window doesn't seem to be closed.
The room was too small and the bedside was close to the window.
My mother has always been deaf, and recently she has been sleeping more deeply because of the medication she takes.
Although he was scared to death, Cheng Liuli couldn't lie down anymore. He lifted up the quilt with a huff and reached out to turn on the light, but it didn't turn on.
The room was still dark.
Damn it, this residential building is too old. The wires must be old and the electricity was not connected in such a rainstorm.

The thunder outside sounded closer and farther away, and lightning flashed one after another, lighting up the room and making it look like a legendary haunted house.
Cheng Liuli simply covered his ears, closed his eyes, stumbled, and rushed into his mother's room based on intuition.
With half-squinted eyes, I saw that my mother had also been awakened by the thunder and was shaking her hands to put on her clothes and get up.
Seeing her mother let out a long sigh of relief, "Lili, it's thundering! Are you afraid? Come to mom quickly -"
Cheng Liuli looked at his mother sadly. Her figure was already stooped, and the white hair on her forehead was reflected by the lightning, making her look so aged. However, she was still thinking about her daughter who was afraid of thunder.

"Yeah." She held back the sobs in her throat and quickly stepped forward to close the window.
At this moment, out of the corner of her eye, she seemed to see a car parked under the dim light downstairs.
——That’s a Rolls-Royce Silver Spur!
Cheng Liuli grew up in a wealthy family and was no stranger to all kinds of famous cars. With just one glance, she recognized that it was a limited edition model produced last year with a market value of over 100 million.
This old community is narrow, messy, dilapidated, and outdated. Most of the residents here are from poor families at the bottom of society. Not many people can afford a car. What's more, it is such a top-level car that only has more than a dozen in the world.
Luxury cars.
She glanced at the car one more time.
Aren't you neurotic?
That man, he would definitely not chase her here.
The Rolls-Royce had turned off and it was difficult to see who was inside in the darkness.
Cheng Lili shook his head and forced himself to stop thinking.
"Lili, want to sleep with mom?" Cheng Qin lifted her quilt. The single bed was very narrow. Cheng Lili hesitated, fearing that it would affect her mother's sleep.
The thunder outside seemed to be weakening, but it still made her feel very frightened.
"Lili, mom knows that you are afraid of thunder and the power went out at night. You should sleep with mom. Your hands are so cold. Come in and warm them up——"
