SRTT Chapter 13.2

Flood (2)

Ruan Ning took a deep breath and performed elastic exercises on the spot for two minutes. After that, she picked up the skipping rope and officially started jumping. She did about 70 jumps in each set and did 3 sets in a row.

She was sweating profusely after doing it.

Rest for twenty minutes to rehydrate before moving on to the next project.

Ruan Ning opened the ‘Brief Introduction to Bow and Archery’ and picked up the recurve bow. She studied it while comparing it with the pictures in the book and practiced holding the bow and standing posture.

She didn’t know whether it was correct or not. She could only say that it was roughly the same.

The morning passed quickly.

She was too lazy to cook, so she still ate ready-made food in the space for lunch. She had beef yesterday, and today she ate fish and soup, as well as various braised vegetables.

While eating, Ruan Ning walked to the balcony and took a look outside. She found that the second floor was in danger.

The rain was still falling.

It would keep falling.

Ruan Ning shook her head and drank a big mouthful of fish soup.

It tasted pretty good.

After finishing the meal and cleaning up the kitchen, Ruan Ning decided to ventilate the house.

She came to the living balcony and opened the window a little. Because this side was sheltered from the wind, only a little rain splashed in. Ruan Ning then put a dry rag next to the window. This shouldn’t be a big problem.

Then, she walked to the main door and opened it. Following the same example, she opened the window on the corridor next to her slightly.

Although there was only a slight breeze, it felt like the air was flowing quietly.

Ruan Ning decided to breathe fresh air here.

After standing there for a while, the door opposite suddenly opened from the inside.

Ruan Ning subconsciously looked over and saw Cheng Jili walking out of the house with a bag of garbage. She was slightly startled when she saw Ruan Ning: “Ning Ning, what are you doing here?”

Ruan Ning pointed to the window: “Blow the wind.”

“Oh.” Cheng Jili’s face was full of worry: “What do you think we should do with this garbage? Throw it out the window?”

Ruan Ning: “What else can we do? Pile them up at home?”

Cheng Jili still couldn’t accept littering in her heart, but there was no other way. Otherwise, the house would stink in two days.

She originally wanted to leave it at the door, but when she saw Ruan Ning here, she gave up the idea.

Cheng Jili could only walk to the window on the other side, open the window with her right hand, quickly throw the garbage bag out with her left hand, and quickly close the window.

Although she moved quickly, she still got a little wet.

She looked down at her clothes speechlessly: “This rain is too much.”

After thinking about it, she followed Ruan Ning’s example and pushed the window open a little, standing further away to breathe in the fresh air.

Someone happened to be accompanying her, so Ruan Ning simply leaned against the door and chatted: “Why are you the one throwing away the garbage? Where is your brother?”

“He went downstairs to see what was going on.”

Cheng Jili frowned, revealing a sadness that was completely different from usual: “You don’t know yet, right? A lot of people escaped from the villa area to our upper floors last night.”

“There are more than 20 people in our building alone, and now the second floor is almost flooded, so the third floor must also be prepared to move.”

“It’s good that we’re on a high floor, but the entrance corridors and stairwells on the floors below are full of people. It’s a mess, even messier than a vegetable market.”

Cheng Jili sighed: “My brother said that we must understand the situation, otherwise, we will be too passive.”

Ruan Ning frowned: “How long has he been down there?”

Cheng Jili said uncertainty: “He should be back soon.”

If you say Cao Cao, Cao Cao will arrive1It is a popular saying to say ‘If you say Cao Cao, Cao Cao will arrive’.

It describes the other party appearing unexpectedly in front of the speaker, often giving people a surprise.

The allusion comes from “The Romance of the Three Kingdoms”. It has the same meaning as ‘Speak of the devil, and he appears’, or ‘Speak of the devil and he will come’.
.

Cheng Jikuan just happened to come back from downstairs.

Cheng Jili’s face lit up: “Brother! How’s the situation downstairs?”
