【Sweetheart Lover】

Chapter 110 Temporary Peace

After the man in black left, everyone in the cellar still dared not let their guard down.

Lin Yanan leaned in Ruan Jianan's arms, her body still trembling slightly. "Jianan, I'm so scared, will they come back again?" Her voice was full of fear and anxiety, and her eyes were full of panic. She tightly grasped Ruan Jianan's clothes, as if that was her only support in this dark world.

Ruan Jianan patted her back gently and comforted her, "Don't be afraid, Yanan, as long as we are careful, nothing should happen." But there was a hint of worry in his eyes, his brows were slightly furrowed, and he was thinking about the next countermeasures in his heart.

Cheng Feng squatted in the corner, his face gloomy. "I've escaped this time, but what should I do next? I can't stay in this damn place forever." He held his head with both hands, looking very irritated, and kept kicking the dirt on the ground.

Qin Hao rubbed his injured leg.

"Let me rest for a while and recover my strength first." His forehead was covered with sweat, and his brows were furrowed in pain without relaxing.

The stranger looked around the cellar, trying to find another exit. His figure swayed in the darkness, his hands constantly groping for the wall.

As time went by, the cellar became frighteningly quiet. This silence seemed to have an invisible pressure that made everyone breathless.

Suddenly, Lin Yanan heard a faint sound of dripping water. "Listen, what's that sound?" She nervously grabbed Ruan Jianan's arm, her voice trembling, and her body instantly straightened.

Everyone pricked up their ears and listened carefully. The sound of dripping water was particularly clear in the silence. The sound of each drop of water falling seemed to tap gently on their tense nerves.

"Maybe it's just the water dripping from the cellar." Ruan Jianan said, but his expression was still solemn. His eyes wandered in the darkness, and he was worried whether this unknown sound would bring new danger.

At this moment, there was a thunder outside, followed by the sound of raindrops falling down. The thunder was deafening, as if it was going to tear the whole world apart.

Rainwater seeped into the cellar through the cracks in the wooden house, making the ground even wetter and muddier. The already unpleasant smell mixed with the moisture from the rain made people feel even more uncomfortable.

"This rain is coming at a really bad time." Cheng Feng complained. His voice was full of helplessness and frustration. He looked up at the place where the rain was seeping, his eyes full of annoyance.

Ruan Jianan stood up and said, "Let's look for something that can keep us out of the rain." His voice was firm and powerful, trying to lead everyone to find a glimmer of hope in this predicament.

Everyone was groping in the dark, and the atmosphere was getting more tense. Lin Yanan accidentally bumped into a worn-out wooden barrel, and she exclaimed, "Oops!"

"Be careful!" Ruan Jianan reminded hurriedly.

Qin Hao touched a piece of rag and asked, "Will this work?"

"Try it first." Ruan Jianan.

Everyone tried to block the rain with whatever they found, but the effect was minimal.

At this time, the men in black outside the wooden house did not seem to leave. The occasional sound of their footsteps made everyone in the cellar feel anxious again.

"What exactly do they want to do?" Cheng Feng said in a low voice.

Ruan Jianan made a gesture to keep quiet, "Don't make any noise, observe the situation first."

Lin Yanan's teeth kept chattering. The cold and fear made it unbearable for her.

The rain continued to fall, and the situation in the cellar became worse and worse...
