After my luck was stolen, I led my whole family to defy fate and change our destiny.

Chapter 119 It’s raining

As for the matter of the prime minister buying grain, he didn't care anymore; the bond between grandfather and grandson had long since been exhausted.

They used to be grandfather and grandson, now they are mortal enemies.

Fortunately, the others didn't know it was going to rain tomorrow, otherwise his foolish suggestion to buy grain would have seemed really stupid and embarrassing.

The second prince rubbed his nose: "Well then, serve the meal, I'm hungry."

Everyone: "..."

Hey, this is my home, my home, not your prince's residence.

The second prince ignored him; he simply wanted to come and eat at the Minister's residence.

……

As night fell, not a single star appeared in the night sky.

After Gu Yu'an finished reading to Gu Linglong and returned to his room, a gust of wind blew, making his robes flutter. The wind was not cooling; instead, it made him feel even hotter.

The wind blew the window open, making a loud whistling noise. Gu Yu'an got up to close the window and looked up to see lightning flashing and thunder roaring in the night sky, with the wind howling and heavy rain pouring down.

Gu Yu'an had a smile on his lips.

Tonight, some will surely have sweet dreams, while others will be sleepless all night.

On the other side, the Gu residence.

Gu Minghai picked up Lin Xiaoxiao and carried her to the bed. He took out a box, and Lin Xiaoxiao's eyes narrowed slightly when she saw it: "What are you doing?"

Gu Minghai held her down: "Sweetie, we'll play something different later."

The red curtains were drawn, and the candlelight flickered, swaying back and forth.

Two little devils floated out from underground, covering their mouths and chuckling evilly. Blood flowed down their lips, their eyes bulged out in a ferocious manner, their faces were covered in blood, and their features were somewhat disproportionate, making them look particularly eerie.

Gu Mingtang worked rhythmically, his forehead covered in beads of joyful sweat: "Baby, you're amazing!"

The two little devils suddenly floated in front of him and revealed their true forms.

"Ah, a ghost!"

Gu Minghai shouted, instantly breaking out in a cold sweat, and his lower body suddenly went limp.

"Who are you calling a ghost?" Lin Xiaoxiao said innocently.

"No, I... I wasn't talking about you. Just now, there was a ghost floating above your head."

Are you seeing things?

Gu Minghai got off Lin Xiaoxiao and looked around in horror: "No, that ghost's mouth was full of blood, and its eye sockets were as big as balls."

Gu Minghai spoke while gesturing.

Lin Xiaoxiao comforted him, "It's alright, you must be seeing things because you're under too much pressure lately."

"Look, where is it?"

Gu Minghai rubbed his eyes: "Am I really seeing things?"

"Of course! You said Gu Linglong was possessed by an evil spirit during the day, so you must have been thinking about that to have such a vivid image in your mind."

Gu Minghai thought about it and realized it made sense.

Lin Xiaoxiao climbed onto his shoulder: "Then let's continue."

"Little vixen" Gu Minghai pinched her chin.

"Let's continue, see if I don't punish you properly."

After a while...

Lin Xiaoxiao looked at Gu Minghai suspiciously: "What are you doing? Is this even okay?"

Gu Minghai's face was ashen; he was probably terrified by the moment he saw things. He hurriedly put on his clothes, shouting as he walked.

"Quickly, fetch a doctor! Quickly, fetch the best doctor in town!"

The servant outside the door blushed. Was it really that serious? It had come to the point of needing a doctor.

Gu Minghai kicked the servant: "Hurry up and go!"

"Oh!" The servant scrambled to his feet and ran off.

Gu Minghai paced anxiously in the room. He hadn't expected that he would suddenly become incapacitated, especially since he didn't have any children yet.

It's really just scrambled eggs!

Upon hearing this, the two little devils let out two strange laughs, and one of them immediately went to claim credit.

"What a waste."

Lin Xiaoxiao mumbled something and went back to sleep.

Seeing this, the little devil pressed down hard on Lin Xiaoxiao, plunging her into a nightmare.

She was fully conscious, but she just couldn't get up. The more she struggled, the less she could get up, as if a huge mountain was pressing down on her.

Is this the legendary sleep paralysis?

What should she do? Lin Xiaoxiao was soon covered in sweat, panic gripping her mind.

A bolt of lightning struck.

Lin Xiaoxiao suddenly opened her eyes: "I'm awake?"

By this time, Lin Xiaoxiao's back was soaked with sweat, and she changed her clothes.

"boom……"

Another clap of thunder sounded.

Lin Xiaoxiao, her body trembling with fear, hurriedly got out of bed and opened the window, where a blinding bolt of lightning struck.

It was as if a blow had struck Lin Xiaoxiao's heart: "Is it going to rain? What about my food?"

Lin Xiaoxiao was pacing anxiously in her room, wondering what to do.

Lin Xiaoxiao paced back and forth, biting her hand: "It's okay, it's okay, it'll probably only be a little while, yes, that's for sure."

Lin Xiaoxiao lay in bed trying to comfort herself, telling herself it must be a dream. She couldn't sleep all night, tossing and turning in fear of not being able to sell her grain and the terror of sleep paralysis.

In the side hall, Gu Minghai smashed all the teacups beside him: "Are you saying I'll never be able to do it again?"

The doctor wiped his sweat, finding it most annoying to encounter patients like this in the middle of the night: "It's not that simple. If you take your medicine properly, it can still be cured."

"Ah~ Ah~" Gu Minghai roared and screamed in a somewhat frenzied manner. How could this be?

What will he do then? What will he do?

Gu Minghai grabbed the doctor's hand: "Doctor, you must treat me well, no matter the cost or the most expensive materials."

The doctor nodded: "Yes, sir, I will do my best."

After the servants saw the doctor off, Gu Minghai, feeling dejected, asked the kitchen to heat up a pot of wine.

"Boom~"

Gu Minghai froze as he poured the wine. Was this a thunderclap?

He asked the servant beside him, "Was that thunder just now?"

"Yes, it's getting windy outside. It looks like it's going to rain."

Gu Minghai kicked the man: "What the hell is raining?"

He stepped out of the room and stood on the veranda to look outside, when a blinding flash of lightning streaked across the sky.

It looks like it's really going to rain. A few drops, then a downpour, and the rain just started, getting heavier and heavier.

As the rain intensified, Gu Minghai grew increasingly irritable, and in a fit of rage, he smashed all the wine jugs.

Hallucination, hallucination, everything tonight is a hallucination.

Lin Xiaoxiao's prophecies have never failed; it's all a dream. Yes, a dream. He went back to another room and covered himself completely with the blanket.

Go to sleep, and when you wake up from your dream, everything will be normal.

……

The little ghost floated in front of Gu Linglong and rattled off how they had scared the two of them.

Gu Linglong gasped in surprise, "Wow, you scared Gu Minghai so much he's paralyzed? Hahahaha..."

【Hahahahahaha】

The people having breakfast were speechless.

It was both speechless and hilarious.

Time flies, and it has been raining in Beijing for almost a month, from the torrential rain a few days ago to the continuous drizzle that followed.

The crops were well-watered, but there was no flooding.

In the fields of farmers on the outskirts of Beijing, all the crops have sprouted ears. Except for the early sprouting ones which are a bit shriveled, the rest are all plump and full.

The farmers danced in the fields.

"It's truly a blessing from heaven! I thought there would be a severe drought and a complete crop failure this year, but this timely rain has come."

"Thank God"

"Thank God"

"Yes, thankfully I didn't hoard food; this year is a bumper harvest."

"We'll be able to eat white rice this year!"
