Shen Zhe hurried to focus his attention after the excitement.

Zi la!

Infinite power flowed towards the two dim stars. They momentarily were as brilliant as barrels of oil that were just ignited, or the sun that had just leaped from the horizon!

Shen Zhe’s eyes almost popped out.

Mr. Geng Xing had introduced the star luminance concept in his class. The two newly rekindled stars were so bright that his eyes were almost hurt. They were even brighter than magnitude-one stars!

He felt that he had just ignited two suns in his body.

Well…

Could the lightning both illuminate stars and improve their magnitude?

The idea thrilled him. He was of a mind to find out whether the two stars would remain bright or would die out later when another lightning bolt hit him. He was immediately frozen.

Crack!

Just like Cui Xiao, he cramped nonstop on the ground.

The first lightning bolt had been used up to illuminate the stars and barely affected him, but the second lightning bolt was overwhelming.

His mouth was smoking and his hair was all standing up.

He struggled to throw the box away.

It is true that you should never feel too good about yourself, or you might die an accidental death!

Right then, someone else spoke.

“Cui Xiao, you’re not just slandering Shen Zhe but also attracting lightnings to hit him? Do you really want to kill him?”

Cui Xiao had just sorted out his hair and his clothes when he turned around and saw Ling Xueru. She was standing in the rain under an umbrella, obviously pissed.

She was on her way to her dormitory when she saw that Shen Zhe had been hit by the lightning.

“I attracted the lightning to strike him?”

Cui Xiao blushed and clenched his fists.

He was the most innocent guy present, but his goddess still misunderstood him.

“You’re not admitting it?”

Ling Xueru sniffed after seeing his expression. “This is Shen Zhe’s dormitory and your room is far away, so why are you here? Also, this box is yours, isn’t it? The box attracted the lightning and directed it to Shen Zhe.”

Cui Xiao decided to speak the truth since he didn’t know how to explain himself, “Would you believe me if I said that he was asking for lightning strikes and took the box from me?”

“You think I’m an idiot?” Ling Xueru had a sterner face as she continued, “You should’ve come up with a more legitimate excuse! Didn’t you tell me that there was something between him and Zhao Chen this morning? Hehe. I won’t believe you anymore!”

“The lightning was very powerful. Who would ever want to be hit by that?”

“The guy is truly bad at lying.”

“It’s not like that. Please listen to my explanation…” Cui Xiao became pale.

“You don’t need to… I’m not interested!”

Ling Xueru waved her hand and stopped talking, then hurried to help Shen Zhe get back on his feet. She asked, “Are you alright?”

Her care was apparent.

Cui Xiao trembled. The feeling was worse than being hit three times by lightning as it happened moments before.

His heart was colder than the rainy day.

“I’m fine…”

After the two stars were illuminated, Shen Zhe felt that his mind and his body had been improved again. The wounds caused by the lightning were in the process of healing.

He rose to his feet after taking a long breath.
