Chapter 187: I'll beat you if you keep doing this
Rain had fallen throughout the night, and the next day showed no signs of clearing up. Instead, it seemed to be turning into a downpour.
Jiang He leaned against the windowsill, staring blankly at the curtain of rain outside.
"If it gets heavier, it'll be just like the day I arrived."
"That's how it is in May and June," she muttered.
"At least it’s cooler this way."
"Once the rain stops, summer will really begin," Xu Qing remarked as he glanced outside.
As June approached, a heavy rain often marked the start of the sweltering days to follow. In Jiang City, this cursed place alternated between freezing winters and scorching summers. The summer heat was so intense it made the air above the asphalt roads shimmer and distort.
By afternoon, the rain intensified, bringing a slight chill. Jiang He ventured out to buy groceries, carrying a big black umbrella—the same one Xu Qing had initially offered her at the door. She carried her little basket, while Xu Qing used a flimsy umbrella he'd received from attending a health seminar.
