Chapter 99 is broken.

"If there really is an invisible hand at work, let him arrange for me to win the lottery!" she said casually.

Li Ran blinked. "What a coincidence, I actually won the lottery before."

Lee Ji-eun raised an eyebrow and looked at him.

He gently stroked his chin. "If that's the case, then wouldn't I be the main character?"

"According to the plan, I'll directly marry a beautiful, rich, and successful woman and reach the pinnacle of life!"

His lips curled up slightly, and the smile became increasingly exaggerated.

"hey-hey!"

"Wake up!" She waved her hand in front of Li Ran's face. "This is the living room. Go to your bedroom to sleep."

Li Ran snapped out of her daze and pursed her lips.

"You won't even let us fantasize, huh?"

"I'm afraid you'll start drooling if you think about it any longer." Lee Ji-eun shook her head.

He opened his mouth, about to defend himself—

"Click~ Click~"

A sound suddenly came from outside the window.

What was that sound?

He frowned and looked around.

Lee Ji-eun, being a singer, is more sensitive to sound and immediately pinpointed the direction of the sound, saying, "It seems to be coming from the yard."

Upon hearing this, Li Ran stood up immediately and walked towards the door.

Lee Ji-eun also stood up.

He opened the door a crack.

The sounds of wind and rain rushed towards us.

He saw the continuous raindrops hitting the paving stones in the yard.

The wind chimes hanging under the eaves were also rattling wildly in the wind.

Li Ran narrowed her eyes and looked in the direction of the sound towards the corner of the courtyard.

"I'll cook it!"

The once-perfect tomato greenhouse is now in a terrible state.

The steel pipe on one side of the shed was noticeably bent, as if it had been forcibly broken by someone.

The plastic sheeting fluttered in the wind, half of it already detached from the frame, billowing and then slapping down with the wind.

The cracking sound I just heard was probably from the steel frame about to break.

Lee Ji-eun peeked out from behind him and stared wide-eyed.

"Is this shed about to collapse?"

Li Ran pursed her lips. "It should be soon."

"What should we do then?" Lee Ji-eun turned to look at him.

In this kind of weather, rushing out to fix it is basically unrealistic.

Let alone repairing it, it's difficult to even stand up.

But if we don't take any action, and the greenhouse film gets blown around again, the entire frame might be ruined.

I wonder how those doves in the tomato greenhouse are doing.

Li Ran took out a raincoat from the corner by the door and put it on.

What are you doing?

He glanced at Lee Ji-eun, who was also putting on a raincoat.

"I'll go along and see, I don't think you can manage on your own," she said.

"It's raining so hard outside, don't go back and catch a cold. You still have to go back to Seoul for work!"

"It won't make a difference if we wait a little longer. What are you dawdling about? Hurry up." She patted Li Ran on the back.

Li Ran pursed her lips but didn't say anything.

As soon as the two pushed open the door and went out, the rain started pouring down.

Even though they were both wearing raincoats, their trouser legs got wet in just a few seconds.

The wind blew in my face, so cold that I instinctively shrank my neck.

Wow~

Lee Ji-eun had only taken two steps when her hair was blown wildly by the wind.

"This wind is ridiculously strong!"

"Now you know it's comfortable staying indoors?"

"Stop talking nonsense."

She raised her hand to shield her eyes from the rain. "Let's hurry over there!"

Some parts of the yard were already muddy.

Li Ran almost slipped when she stepped on it, and only managed to steady herself after the sole of her shoe scraped against the ground.

"Be careful," Lee Ji-eun reminded him instinctively.

They only realized how disheveled the tomato shed was when they got closer.

One side of the steel pipe was visibly bent, and the joint was creaking and groaning in the wind.

The tear in the greenhouse film was quite large, and the edges kept getting whipped up by the wind.

The tomato trellises inside were leaning precariously, and several of the ropes binding them had come undone.

Li Ran glanced in the direction of the dove's nest.

He discovered that the doves had long since disappeared.

They must have found another place to take shelter from the rain.

Li Ran reached out and pressed down on a swaying steel pipe, but as soon as she touched it, a gust of wind rushed towards her.

The entire shed shook violently.

"Holy crap."

He immediately gripped the frame tightly.

Lee Ji-eun, her eyes squinting from the rain, followed closely behind him.

"What should we do?" she asked.

Li Ran wiped the water off her face. "First, secure the greenhouse film. We can't let it continue to let the wind in."

If the wind keeps blowing like this, all the wind will get in, and the whole shed will be overturned sooner or later.

He looked around and saw that the remaining cable ties and ropes were piled up in the corner of the yard.

He gripped the rack and turned to Lee Ji-eun beside him, "Could you get that coiled rope for me?"

"oh!"

Lee Ji-eun responded and jogged over.

She slipped halfway through her run.

"ah!"

Li Ran's heart tightened, and she subconsciously reached out her hand.

Fortunately, she only stumbled slightly and managed to steady herself by grabbing onto a small wooden frame next to her.

She looked down at her shoes.

"I almost landed face down," she muttered.

Li Ran breathed a sigh of relief, then called out to her, "Be careful!"

He wouldn't know what to do if she really got hurt.

Lee Ji-eun got the rope.

While pressing down the inflated greenhouse film, Li Ran shouted to her, "Give me the rope!"

"Speak louder! I can't hear you!"

"I said, the rope!"

"What?!"

'

""

Li Ran wiped the rain off her face.

The sounds of wind and rain mixed together, making communication several levels more difficult.

He suddenly began to regret it.

What was wrong with me? Why did I have to brave the rain to rescue Tomato and the dove?

The turtledoves have already flown away.

As for tomatoes, how much are these tomatoes worth?

His gaze suddenly fell on the Busan 88 cherry tomatoes, and he paused slightly.

Well, it's not entirely meaningless.

Li Ran, holding down the flying plastic sheeting with one hand, gestured to Li Zhi'en with the other, "Rope! Give it to me!"

This time she finally understood.

She ran over in the rain and shoved the rope into his hand.

As soon as she got close, a gust of wind suddenly blew across her.

The greenhouse film suddenly swung up with a "snap".

Lee Ji-eun was so startled that she instinctively shrank back.

"ah!"

Li Ran reacted quickly and pressed down on the greenhouse film.

The wind, carrying rain, pelted his face.

The edge of the plastic film lashed his arm, making him hiss in pain.

He said to Lee Ji-eun, "Stand still!"

Lee Ji-eun's eyes were so blurry from the rain that she couldn't open them, and she instinctively grabbed onto something nearby.

As a result, she vaguely grabbed the back of Li Ran's raincoat.

"Why!"

Li Ran was pulled and staggered.

The two of them almost fell into the mud together.

Lee Ji-eun slowly regained her balance. "It was purely an accident."

She felt a little embarrassed.

Li Ran looked down at her trouser legs, which were already covered in mud, and shook her head.

Lee Ji-eun raised her hand and brushed her wet hair back.

Rainwater slid down her forehead.

"What do we do now?"

Li Ran looked up and glanced at it.

The hole in the greenhouse film is too big to be patched up temporarily.

But at least we need to secure it first, so the wind doesn't keep blowing in.

He crouched down and threaded the rope through the steel frame.

"Come here and help me hold on."

"here?"

"Yes, hold this side down."

Li Zhi'en reached out and pressed down on the greenhouse film.
