Su Jing huddled on the ground for a long moment, her head in her hands. Aside from the clatter of wind and rain, and the rattling of doors and windows, there was no other sound. She slowly raised her head and looked around. It was still the same shabby, old public bathroom. She pinched herself, her body warm. Nothing seemed to have changed. She was still the same 17-year-old self, not letting the lightning kill her or send her back to 40.

She breathed a sigh of relief and stood up, hesitating whether to continue showering. The rain looked like it would last for a while, and wouldn't it be a bit boring to run over there in the rain after showering?

But her clothes were already taken off and her hair was untied. She was now faced with the difficult choice of "Since I'm here, what should I do?"

This time of year wasn't a popular time to begin with, and with the heavy rain, even fewer people would come. Su Jing thought slowly, thinking that she had to wait for the rain to stop anyway.

After a moment's hesitation, Su Jing decided to take a shower since she was already here. The summer downpours in this city were intermittent, and the rain might subside after a shower. Even if it was just a minute, it was enough for her to run back to the house from the bathroom.

Su Jing hung the skirt in her hand back on the hook and reached out to turn on the faucet.

"Crack... crack..." Several unusual sounds reached Su Jing's ears. In the midst of a thunderstorm, they reached her ears so clearly. She shuddered. No! Wind and rain couldn't make such sounds!

Someone! There must be someone!!

Su Jing immediately reached out to turn off the faucet, not even bothering to wipe the water with a towel. She walked straight to the wall, pulled off her skirt and put it on.

She didn't care that her skirt was wet and sticking to her body, and she quickly tied her hair back with a rubber band. Her eyes quickly searched the small bathroom for something to protect herself.

The clicking sound rang out again.

All the hairs on her body stood up, and Su Jing quickly sorted out the possible situations and ways she could deal with them in her mind.

After scanning the bathroom for a few times, I saw only a broken plastic toilet brush. Regardless of whether it was useful or not, I just had to hold it in my hand.

The sound of wind and rain outside the door was still very loud. Su Jing's heart was beating so fast that it felt like it was about to jump out of her throat. After thinking for a while, she reached out to turn on the water pipe again, so that the sound inside would reveal her unawareness.

Then, she grabbed the towel, tiptoed to the door, and stared at it carefully. Sure enough, in the crack of the door that looked like it might fall apart at any moment, the blade of a screwdriver was being pushed in again and again. Someone was really trying to pry the door open!

She leaned against the door, her eyes fixed on the door that could be pried open at any moment, and wiped the water off her feet with a towel. Since they were slippers, they might slip if they weren't dried. After wiping her feet, she took the towel in one hand and the toilet brush in the other. She thought, when the man opened the door, she would throw the towel in his face, blocking his view while giving him a good scrub. Perhaps she could slip out while he was off guard.

As long as he wasn't trapped in this bathroom, there were other ways to escape. If he left this bathroom and started shouting, even if no one came out to meddle, this person would still be wary.

Su Jing is now glad that she is not a real girl. Her mentality allows her to calm down quickly in such a short time and come up with a feasible solution.

The original lock tongue had been pried open, and the screws of the padlock inside had loosened, and the door was about to be opened. Su Jing's heartbeat was now as fast as the rain outside. Her body temperature dropped several degrees due to tension and her wet skirt. She began to feel cold, cold from the inside out, so cold that she began to shiver uncontrollably.

She had to admit that she was panicking at this moment.

The thunder continued to rumble, like the sound effects in a TV drama, each one deepening her uneasiness. Her eyes were fixed on the lock latch, which was about to fall. At the last moment, Su Jing changed her plan. She suddenly pushed the door, pushing the bolt that had been pulled out first back. At the same time, she tightened the latch, and the simplest lock was locked again.

Moreover, it cannot be pried open with a screwdriver for the time being.

Su Jing stared at the door, unsure of her next move. With the rain so heavy, no one would hear her even if she screamed louder.

Damn it, do I have a grudge against rain? Why do all these accidents always happen when it's thundering and raining? God, can you please stop the rain first? Can you let me call for help? Did you send me back here just to play a trick on me?

The feeling of being at a loss has made Su Jing start to have wild thoughts.

After she locked the safety, the man outside used a screwdriver to pry it several times, but it didn't work. Su Jing heard the man outside curse something.

The noise of the door being pried open stopped. Just as she was about to breathe a sigh of relief, wondering if the man would give up, the door opened even louder. The man started banging on the door.

Su Jing's mind began to sort out the possible people in the yard. There was no need to think of a second person. The person outside the door could only be Shi Dawei. Thinking about the look in his eyes when she met him several times, Su Jing went from nervousness to fear.

Shi Dawei was about thirty years old, of medium height. I heard he used to work on machine tools in a factory, but was fired for taking advantage of a female colleague. Su Jing had also seen him shirtless in the yard, and his arm muscles were very strong.

Just thinking about Su Jing made her feel like the sky was falling. Her few fancy moves were nothing compared to the absolute strength! Besides, that guy was not only strong, but also a gangster. There was no way she could beat him.

Su Jing really wanted to shout now, but in this dilapidated courtyard where no one was willing to meddle in other people's business under normal circumstances, it was even more impossible for anyone to come out to take a look in such a fierce thunderstorm. What should she do?

But she still screamed out loud. She was really scared. For the first time, she felt scared from the bottom of her heart.

All the news she had heard and stories she had seen flashed through her mind. She couldn't, couldn't be trapped in this shabby bathroom. She hadn't been reborn to become the heroine of a rape-to-death story in the newspaper a few days later.

Her whole body was cold, and her face was covered with water, sweat, or tears. Su Jing looked around again, trying to find another tool to protect herself.

This time, she saw the worn wooden bench where she put her clothes. Isn't this better than a broken toilet brush?

She happily threw away the toilet brush, picked up the wooden bench, and walked back to the door to stand on the side where it opened. She wanted to stand in the position where it would be easiest to escape, and the moment the door opened, she would hit the guy's nose with the bench and then run away as quickly as possible.

Yes, you can do it. With that hit, you can buy yourself more than ten seconds. You can definitely do it. You can definitely run away... Su Jing took big deep breaths and kept cheering herself up in her heart.

A few short minutes felt like a year to Su Jing. She was terrified, truly terrified. She had read too many novels and heard too much news. These lust-fueled men didn't even know what they were capable of.

And on a night like this, the darkest desires in your heart will be magnified many times.

Seeing that the gap in the door was getting bigger and bigger with each collision, Su Jing was ready to fight to the death with the intruder. She raised her hands holding the bench.

Just as she was about to throw the bench down, she heard two loud shouts from outside: "What are you doing!" Then a scream, and the banging on the door stopped, and the door stopped shaking. But the screams outside continued one after another, and she also heard the sound of something heavy falling to the ground.

Could it be that I was so lucky that a neighbor heard me and came out to help? Su Jing speculated, slowly lowering the hand holding the bench, stepping step by step to the door, pressing her ear to it, carefully trying to listen to what was happening outside.

"Fuck you, you old bastard! It's raining so hard, and you still won't stop fucking me!" a familiar male voice cursed. "I'm gonna beat you to a pulp, and see what you can do next!"

The sounds of "Fuck, fuck" were accompanied by the dull sound of feet kicking people. Su Jing suddenly felt that this sound was so handsome, so fucking handsome, so manly!

Is it him? It's him, definitely him! There's no way I could have mistaken his voice.

"Jiang Yi!" Su Jing was delighted and pulled the door hard, but it didn't open. She quickly turned the safety pin and opened the door.

Sure enough, the moment the door opened, she saw two men, one tall and one short, kicking a man rolling on the ground in the heavy rain.

The rain was pouring down, and the three men in the middle of the yard were soaked through.

Jiang Yi's white shirt was completely stuck to his body. His muscles were not very strong, but they were still very clear. There was a fierceness in his eyes that he had never seen before. He had completely lost his young master's aura and looked like the thug who had chased out of the nightclub that day.

This was the first time that Su Jing, who had lived two lives, saw Jiang Yi hitting someone. There was no method, but he used all his strength in every blow. The fire burning in his eyes even made her feel a little cruel, which could not be associated with his previous gentleness and demeanor.

The shorter man next to Jiang Yi had a shaved head and a tight T-shirt that clung to his body, revealing muscles no less muscular than Shi Dawei's. He was clearly a man of extensive training. Each of his kicks was swift and fierce, a testament to his extensive fighting experience. With each swagger, Shi Dawei on the ground let out a louder cry.

Su Jing watched in shock for a few minutes, and when she saw the man on the ground gradually stop moving, she suddenly woke up, "Jiang Yi, is that you? Stop, stop, someone's going to die if you keep hitting me!"

She rushed into the rain and hugged Jiang Yi's waist, "Jiang Yi, stop hitting him, stop hitting him, or he'll die!" Su Jing shouted anxiously. The man with a crew cut beside him stopped first and also called out to him, "That's enough, you can't stand up anymore, you don't have to hit me anymore."

Shi Dawei curled up on the ground, screaming in pain. Su Jing saw red seeping out of the water beside him.
