Upon receiving the ssage, Wang Chao furrowed his brows and looked out the window.
It was already late at night, and outside, there was a torrential downpour, accompanied by thunder and lightning. The howling wind made it seem like the end of the world, truly terrifying.
He thought for a mont and replied, "Are you sure?"
"Hurry up," Shen Bing sent a voice ssage urging him.
From her voice ssage, he could tell that she was genuinely frightened, her voice filled with fear.
"Alright, I'm coming."
Wang Chao replied and put away his phone. He got up from his room and headed outside.
At that mont, a ssage from Wang Zuxian also arrived: "Wang Chao, are you asleep? It's raining heavily today, and I can't sleep. Can you chat with for a while?"
At the sa ti, Yang Mi also ssaged him: "I had a scene in the rain today and I'm freezing. Wang Chao, do you have any tips for warming up?"
Unfortunately, Wang Chao had already put away his phone and couldn't see their ssages.
Wang Chao went upstairs and knocked on Shen Bing's door. After receiving permission from Shen Bing, he entered the room.
The room was dark, and Shen Bing was sitting on the bed, trembling, holding a blanket, with a terrified look on her face as she stared out the window.
Boom!
At that mont, a thunderous clap of thunder resounded outside, illuminating the world as bright as day.
In the light, Wang Chao saw Shen Bing's pale face, huddled on the bed, looking extrely pitiful and frightened, evoking a sense of sympathy and an urge to hold her in his arms.
"Ahh!"
The thunder also startled Shen Bing, causing her to jump up from the bed and cower in the corner like a frightened rabbit.
Wang Chao closed the door, turned on the light, and wondered, "Why is she so afraid of thunder and yet did not turn on the lights?"
Although he was puzzled, he approached her and comforted, "It's just thunder, there's no need to be afraid."
"Wang Chao!"
Upon seeing Wang Chao enter, Shen Bing imdiately rushed towards him like she had found a savior, throwing herself into his arms and hugging him tightly.
This situation was exactly the sa as when Huang Ying had clung to him before.
"What's wrong? It's just thunder, there's nothing to be afraid of," Wang Chao asked.
"I'm scared," Shen Bing clung to Wang Chao, trembling with fear.
Wang Chao forced a smile.
Back when they were in the jungle overseas, Shen Bing had never shown such vulnerability.
Now, she was terrified by a simple thunderstorm, completely different from her usual composed and powerful CEO deanor. She appeared as fragile as a child.
"You're scared of thunder?" Wang Chao was taken aback.
"Yes, I'm really scared. Can you please not leave tonight?" Shen Bing held onto Wang Chao tightly, still filled with fear.
Especially at that mont when another clap of thunder resounded, and lightning tore through the night sky.
Shen Bing trembled, clutching onto Wang Chao even tighter.
"It's okay, I'm here with you. Don't be afraid," Wang Chao hugged Shen Bing and gently patted her back to reassure her.
In fact, he even sat on the bed, holding her in his arms.
"No, don't leave," Shen Bing hastily held onto Wang Chao, not allowing him to leave.
"But, it's not appropriate for us to be in this position for too long," Wang Chao forced a smile.
This posture was too awkward.
If they continued like this for too long, he might end up doing sothing quite inappropriate.
Shen Bing suddenly realized the impropriety of their position, her face blushing, and quickly let go of Wang Chao, her heart pounding.
Recalling their previous embrace, she lowered her head, afraid to et Wang Chao's eyes.
The embrace between them was too intimate.
Especially considering that she usually slept without wearing a bra, the close embrace with Wang Chao just now... it was...
It was simply too embarrassing!
She was about to say sothing when another thunderclap resounded outside.
Startled, her face turned pale again, and she quickly threw herself into Wang Chao's arms, holding onto him tightly like a frightened kitten.
Wang Chao was speechless.
What was going on?
Won were won, even if they held high positions, deep down, they could still be brittle girls. They could be terrified by a single thunderclap like this!
Wang Chao thought to himself, but remained composed on the surface, saying, "Alright, alright, do not be afraid. I'll stay here with you tonight, I won't go back."
Hearing his words, Shen Bing felt slightly relieved.
"So, can you let go now?" Wang Chao asked.
Blushing again, Shen Bing quickly released her hold on Wang Chao, but she still stayed close to him, not moving away. Her hand even held onto his tightly. "Brother Wang, I'm always scared when there's thunder. Can you continue holding my hand?"
"Sure, no problem," Wang Chao nodded.
When people are nervous and scared, they often look for sothing to hold onto as a source of comfort.
Shen Bing was clearly in that state right now.
Seeing Shen Bing so anxious and frightened, Wang Chao's eyes softened with a hint of tenderness. He quickly changed the subject, saying, "Shen CEO, did you have so experiences in your childhood that made you so afraid of thunder?"
From what he knew, extre terror of certain things was often the result of unforgettable experiences that ford psychological traumas.
"We're such good friends now, can you stop calling Shen CEO?" Shen Bing suddenly said.
"What should I call you then?" Wang Chao asked.
"Call Bingbing, Feifei used to call Bingbing. That was my nickna," Shen Bing replied.
"Alright, Bingbing. Did you experience sothing in your childhood?" Wang Chao asked.
"Childhood?"
At the ntion of this, a flicker of terror crossed Shen Bing's eyes.
"I can only help you through this if you tell about these things," Wang Chao spoke gently.
His words seed to possess so kind of magic, calming Shen Bing's restless heart and gradually easing her trembling.
Finally, she clenched her teeth, gathered her courage, and said, "When I was five years old, on a rainy day with thunder, as I was returning ho from elentary school, I encountered sothing... impure."
"Impure? And it happened during a thunderstorm?" Wang Chao's expression turned serious.
For those impure and demonic entities, thunder and lightning were absolute calamities!
Often, as soon as thunder resounded, those monsters and ghosts would be subdued, lying motionless on the ground.
Especially during thunderstorms, many bizarre creatures would not dare to move, choosing to hide away.
But Shen Bing encountered sothing impure during a thunderstorm?
Without interrupting, Wang Chao listened as Shen Bing continued, lost in her own thoughts. "During that ti, that impure thing almost killed my father."
As she spoke, her eyes filled with even more fear.
