Obsessive Young Master Wei: My Beloved Loses Control Every Night

But Wei Zixian only gave her these two options.

"I choose... the first one," she heard herself say, her voice barely audible.

Wei Zixian did not get up immediately.

He stared at her for a few seconds, then chuckled softly.

He finally got up and sat back in his original seat.

Bian Zhizhi also sat up, hurriedly tidying her clothes and picking up the books that had fallen to the ground.

The book was open, and the page was turned to the song "I Like You When You're Silent".

She stared at the poem, her eyes stinging.

Wei Zixian leaned back on the sofa, watching her flustered appearance, and said calmly, "Continue."

Bian Zhizhi took a deep breath and picked up the book again.

She continued reading.

The voice was more trembling and softer than before.

Wei Zixian leaned closer again, resting his head completely on her shoulder.

He wrapped his arms around her waist, holding her firmly in his embrace.

Bian Zhizhi remained stiff, letting him hold her.

She read poetry, and he listened.

As the sun gradually sets in the west, the light and shadow in the room shift and change.

For a fleeting moment, Bian Zhizhi vaguely felt that the scene resembled that of an ordinary couple, one reading and the other listening, quietly nestled together.

If you ignore her tense body and his tightly clasped hands.

The relationship underwent a qualitative change on that stormy night.

It was a Saturday.

Everything was normal during the day.

Wei Zixian cooperated and completed all the healing projects.

Bian Zhizhi was somewhat surprised, but mostly relieved.

On the surface, Wei Zixian does appear to be "getting better".

His engagement increased, his emotions stabilized, and he even began to show interest in certain things.

The treatment ended at 5 p.m.

Bian Zhizhi looked at the progress on the record sheet, hesitated for a moment, and decided to finish early today.

"Young Master did a great job today," she said, putting away the materials and smiling. "We can get some rest now."

Wei Zixian, who was sitting by the window, turned to look at her upon hearing this and replied, "Okay."

At that moment, Bian Zhizhi thought to herself, maybe, maybe things really are moving in a positive direction.

Perhaps Wei Zixian's possessiveness is only part of his illness, and he will gradually return to normal as treatment progresses.

Perhaps in three months, she will be able to leave unscathed with the money and start a new life.

Maybe.

At 5:30 in the evening, the sky began to darken.

It wasn't a normal nightfall; instead, dark clouds rolled in from the distant mountains, hanging low and almost pressing down on the rooftops.

Bian Zhizhi was organizing her healing plan for next week in her room when she heard the wind picking up outside the window, howling as it swept across the eaves.

It is going to rain.

She got up to close the window, and just as she reached the window, a bolt of lightning ripped through the sky, and the blinding white light instantly illuminated the entire courtyard.

Immediately afterwards, thunder rumbled in like the roar of a giant beast.

The rain poured down.

Large raindrops pounded against the glass, making a loud pattering sound, instantly blurring everything outside the window.

Bian Zhizhi closed the window, returned to her desk, and continued working.

But she has difficulty concentrating.

The thunder was too loud, the rain was too heavy, and the wind sounded like ghosts howling.

The entire house seemed to be swaying in a storm, as if it could be torn apart at any moment.

It was completely dark at 7 p.m.

Bian Zhizhi turned on the table lamp, and the warm light barely dispelled some of her unease.

She was about to continue working when suddenly the lights went out.

All light sources in the entire room, the entire floor, and the entire house disappeared instantly.

power cut.

Power outage caused by heavy rain.

She fumbled for her phone in the dark and turned on the screen. The faint white light was particularly glaring in the darkness, barely illuminating a small area around her.

She turned on the flashlight, illuminating the outline of the room.

We need to go out and take a look.

She pushed open the door, and the hallway was just as dark.

The beam of the flashlight swayed against the wall, casting distorted shadows.

The sound of servants' hurried footsteps and whispers came from downstairs.

"The power tripped!"

"What about the backup generator?"

"Rainwater is flooding into the server room! It won't start!"

"Quick! Call an electrician! Contact the power company!"

As fragmented pieces of information entered her ears, Bian Zhizhi suddenly remembered something, and her heart sank.

Wei Zixian.

He has a severe fear of the dark.

This was something that Butler Li had specifically told her when she first arrived: the young master was afraid of the dark, extremely afraid of the dark.

After a tragedy when he was a child, he could no longer be alone in the dark.

Therefore, the electrical system of the Wei residence has double protection: in the event of a main line failure, the backup generator will automatically start within ten seconds.

But now, the worst coincidence has occurred.

Heavy rain, power outage, and backup system failure.

Wei Zixian was alone in the room.

The phone suddenly vibrated, and the word "Mom" appeared on the screen.

Bian Zhizhi had a bad feeling. At this moment... she answered the call, and Lin Suxin's anxious and worried voice came through immediately, mixed with Bian Wenbai's questioning voice in the background.

It seems to have rained where they are, but the situation is okay. Their main concern is their daughter who is alone out there.

"Zhizhi, is it raining heavily where you are? The thunder is so scary, are you alright?"

"Mom, I'm fine. I'm in my room, I'm safe." Bian Zhizhi forced her voice to sound calm. "It's just ordinary rain, don't worry."

"Are the doors and windows closed? Don't go outside! The news says some places are experiencing power outages, what about where you are?"

"Um... there's a small problem, but it'll be fixed soon." Bian Zhizhi said vaguely, but her gaze drifted anxiously toward the door.

"Mom, the signal isn't very good here, I'll talk to you later. You all take care and get some rest."

She ended the call almost hastily, letting out a long breath the instant she hung up.

The worry about her parents was temporarily suppressed, but a more pressing fear took over.

She couldn't wait any longer.

Clutching her phone, which served as the only source of light, Bian Zhizhi opened the door and stepped into a pitch-black corridor.

She ran towards the end of the corridor, towards Wei Zixian's room.

Meanwhile, in the banquet hall of the Huarui Hotel in the east of the city.

Wei Yanqiu stood in front of the French windows, looking at the torrential rain outside, his face ashen.

Today is her 30th birthday party.

It should have been a joyous day.

She booked the largest banquet hall in Huarui, hired a band, a chef, and invited her business associates with whom she needed to maintain relationships.

The banquet was halfway through, and the atmosphere was just right.

A torrential downpour has arrived.

At first, there were only a few muffled claps of thunder in the distance, which the guests did not pay any attention to.

It's the rainy season, so rain is normal.

But the rain grew heavier and the thunder grew louder until the lights in the banquet hall suddenly flickered and then went out completely.

The backup power supply started promptly, but only kept a few dim emergency lights on the wall burning.

The luxurious banquet hall was instantly plunged into an eerie atmosphere of half-light and half-darkness. The violin music stopped abruptly, and the guests let out a low gasp and a commotion.

"What happened?"

"Is there a power outage?"

"This weather is terrifying..."

Wei Yanqiu forced himself to remain calm and gave Zhou Lin a wink.

Zhou Lin immediately stepped forward and raised his voice to reassure everyone: "Please be patient, distinguished guests. The heavy rain has caused a power outage, and the hotel is currently conducting emergency repairs."

She quickly walked to the window and took out her phone.
