Yang City.

Following the address Bai Ran sent to his phone, Sun Zhe drove Zhu Yan’s small car and quickly reached the destination, meeting Bai Ran at the entrance of the residential area.

For them, a day felt like three autumns apart, and as soon as they met, they hugged each other, drawing curious looks from the guard at the gate who seemed to want to strangle this shameless couple.

"Baby, did you miss me?"

"You’ll know how much I’ve missed you soon."

"..."

Hugging and cuddling all the way, Bai Ran soon led Sun Zhe back to the apartment she rented.

Just as they entered, with shoes still on, Bai Ran eagerly leaped into Sun Zhe’s arms, offering her fiery red lips.

As their tongues intertwined, Bai Ran started to unbuckle Sun Zhe’s pants.

Not wanting to be outdone, Sun Zhe unbuttoned her tight jeans, and quickly found it was silk inside.

"Sister, you really understand me."

Upon hearing this, Bai Ran pulled away, looking at him with a grievance in her eyes, "Stop calling me sister, will you?"

"Hey hey, Sister Ran."

Bai Ran humed softly, then attacked again, biting Sun Zhe’s neck, her sweet lips and tongue sweeping down past his chest muscles to his abs...

Soon.

Bai Ran knelt in front of Sun Zhe, looked up sweetly at him, and pulled his pants and briefs down to his knees.

Sun Zhe cooperatively lifted his legs, allowing Bai Ran to easily strip off his pants and toss them aside.

Staring at the close-up of the fierce object, sniffing the rank odor, Bai Ran couldn’t help but frown slightly.

"Naughty boy, it stinks!"

Sun Zhe lowered his head to look at her charming face, "Should I go wash it first?"

"Never mind, I want to eat your little stinker."

With that, her lips gently parted, moving in to meet it.

"Ahhh..."

Sun Zhe tilted his head and narrowed his eyes, reaching out to hold her head.

"Sister Ran, you’re so good."

"..."

The fierce battle lasted until after three o’clock in the morning.

After the deed, Sun Zhe felt worried about Zhu Yan being home alone, so after cuddling with Bai Ran for a while, he said he needed to head home.

Despite not wanting him to leave, Bai Ran couldn’t help it, as Sun Zhe was becoming more vigorous, and she truly couldn’t handle the turmoil.

She thought she’d be able to exhaust Sun Zhe after so many days apart tonight, but as Sun Zhe placed her silk-clad legs over his shoulder, she realized her own insignificance.

...

A red BMW sped down the silent neon road.

"Boom——!"

A deafening roar suddenly echoed through the sky.

Sun Zhe glanced out the car window, and saw lightning flashing in the distant night sky, the irregular electric serpent descending abruptly, piercing the darkness.

"Pat, pat, pat pat pat pat..."

At that moment, large raindrops fell on the windshield, creating a crackling sound.

"Everything was fine, why is it suddenly pouring rain? Is some man swearing again?"

Sun Zhe wondered to himself, turned on the wipers, and floored the gas pedal to get home faster.

He remembered checking the weather forecast before leaving, which had shown sunny days for the week ahead.

But weather is like a woman’s mood, ever-changing, so he didn’t dwell on it.

Upon returning home, he found Zhu Yan already asleep, so he didn’t disturb her, and headed to his own room to shower before lying in bed, listening to the rain on the windows, soon falling asleep.

The next day.

Sun Zhe slept naturally until past nine in the morning.

The faint sound of a vacuum cleaner drifted from downstairs; it seemed Zhu Yan was home resting and doing chores since she wasn’t working today.

Sun Zhe lazily turned over, reached for his phone under the pillow, and started replying to the unread messages from various admirers.

After a while.

When he opened the unread messages from Ye Qiao, Sun Zhe noticed she had sent a video, and there was a voice message below it, so he tapped to play it.

"I can’t believe it! Sun Xiaozhe, are you awake?"

"Look, it’s a dragon!"

"I filmed a dragon last night!"

Listening to Ye Qiao’s excited voice message, Sun Zhe couldn’t help but frown, immediately opening the 40-second video message above.

"Rumble rumble..."

As the video started, the unsettling thunder instantly transmitted through the phone.

In the video, the terrifying lightning seemed to tear the entire sky, the rolling clouds forming a massive tornado, like an ancient beast awakened in a rage, even watching through the screen, one would feel a sense of oppressive fear, as if the apocalypse had come!

"Ooo—!"

Right when Sun Zhe was watching seriously, the video suddenly emitted a hollow howl.

It sounded like a cow’s call, but heavier and longer, unsettling to the ears.

Sun Zhe’s heart sank involuntarily.

He had heard this howl at Dragon Prison Abyss!

Not identical, but indistinguishable!

"Crash—!"

At that moment, a lightning bolt flashed across the night sky, and in the brief moment the sky was lit, Sun Zhe shockingly noticed a curving long black shape appearing within the clouds.

With another bolt striking, the night sky lit up again, and Sun Zhe saw the long black shape twisting and flying within the clouds.

The video ended here.

"No way... Could it be..."

Sun Zhe’s skin prickled, his body trembling.

After a while, he stopped entertaining some unrealistic thoughts, and messaged Ye Qiao: "Is this real?"

A few seconds later, Ye Qiao suddenly called.

As soon as the call connected, Ye Qiao hastened to say, "Sun Xiaozhe, it’s true, oh my!"

Sun Zhe wore a peculiar expression, saying, "Videos like this are often seen on short video platforms, aren’t they mostly proven false?"

"What era is this, and you still believe this?"

Ye Qiao hurriedly said, "Oh my, why won’t you believe me? If Sun Wukong can grow wings and fly, why won’t you believe there are dragons in the world?"

"Think about it, all animals in the Chinese Zodiac exist in reality, except the dragon... But why would our ancestors include the dragon in the Zodiac if it didn’t exist?"

Sun Zhe: "..."

Ye Qiao: "Answer me!"

Sun Zhe touched his nose, analyzing, "Maybe it was just plastic or something caught in a tornado."

Ye Qiao’s tone was firm, "No, that was a dragon!"

"I used to see those short videos and didn’t believe it, but this time it’s different, this time I filmed it myself!

"Not just me, many people filmed it yesterday, if you don’t believe, check online now, it’s trending in the news."

"And many streets in Yang City are flooded, Yang City has never been flooded before in history."

"When something strange occurs, there must be demons, so Sun Xiaozhe, it’s a Flood Dragon transforming!"

"..."

After listening to Ye Qiao’s lengthy explanation, Sun Zhe said, "Alright, I won’t hide it anymore, Qiaoqiao, there really are dragons in the world, and I’ve seen one firsthand and even took photos, but I’ve only shown Yan’Er."

Hearing this, Ye Qiao was quiet for a while before saying, "Sun Xiaozhe, are you kidding me? You’ve seen a dragon and taken photos, who are you trying to fool?"

Sun Zhe shrugged, "See, now that I say there are dragons, you don’t believe me. Want me to send you the photos?"

"Send it then, send it, I want to see!"

"..."
