As the little fella's childish voice surrounded her, Yin Yuerong slowly closed her eyes and entered dreamland.
Her sleep was particularly sound and uninterrupted, and Yin Yuerong slept from evening to the middle of the night, only jolted awake by a clap of thunder.
As lightning flashed and thunder clapped, a raging storm surged and gales howled in the night, the shadows of the swaying trees resembling ghosts madly dancing outside the window.
Yin Yuerong reflexively glanced outside the window with a furrow of her brows.
After lying there for a moment, she sat up and covered herself with a jacket before walking out of her room.
She stopped in front of the room next door and pushed open the door.
In the bedroom, a faint lamp was lit on the nightstand and the little fella was lying in bed, sound asleep and unperturbed by the thunder outside.
Yin Yuerong looked at Tangtang, her brows locked together, vexed. She didn't linger and turned to leave.
However, as she left, she accidentally stumbled into the chair by the bed, making a "bang."
"Mmm..." The child in bed groggily woke up. "Grandma?"
When the little fella discovered her presence, Yin Yuerong cleared her throat and answered, "Mm."
Tangtang sat up as he rubbed his eyes before sleepily extending his arm and touching Yin Yuerong's forehead, checking if Yin Yuerong's fever had reduced.
Then he yawned and looked at Yin Yuerong, curious. "Grandma, why did you come over? Oh, I know... are you scared, Grandma?"
As he said that, he patted Yin Yuerong's back with his little hand. "Don't be scared, Grandma. My mommy said lightning and thunder are natural phenomena and there aren't ghosts in this world, so you don't need to be scared!"
