Li Ke bit her lip in pain, tears falling one by one.
"I'll be back again, and next time it won't be as simple as burning a cat's tail."
As the words fell, the oppressive, extreme eeriness in the room vanished.
Li Ke collapsed weakly onto the ground, cold sweat breaking out on her forehead.
Not long after, her mother came upstairs with her daughter. Seeing Li Ke sitting on the floor, she was quite surprised: "Why are you sitting on the floor? Your eyes are red, have you been crying?"
Li Ke hurriedly avoided her mother's gaze, "It's nothing, just got some smoke in my eyes. Mom, could Xiao Ran stay with you for a few days?"
"Of course, I was just about to say, your house has been burned, even if it's not badly, I'm not comfortable with you staying there. Why not stay with me for a few days and have someone clean it up?"
Li Ke nodded.
Her husband was on a business trip and would not be back for a few days.
