The new house bought by Han Yu'an and Yi Qianqian has been almost renovated. Yi Qianqian promised to get a marriage certificate with Han Yu'an after receiving her university diploma in June.
Han Yu'an felt that he was now a successful man with a house, a car, a wife and children. He was in a good mood and had a candlelight dinner with Qian Qian to celebrate the fact that they were about to walk into their wedding dresses from the campus.
After dinner, when the two were making love in the bedroom, they suddenly felt a shaking, and then there were several loud noises outside the bedroom door, and it sounded like someone was screaming.
"Ah! Is it an earthquake?" exclaimed Qianqian.
Han Yu'an hurriedly put on his clothes and wanted to go out to take a look, but he didn't stand firmly and felt dizzy.
There was another loud "bang" and the floor-to-ceiling window of the two people's bedroom was broken. Strong winds rushed in violently, and then several black shadows smashed in from the broken floor-to-ceiling window.
Han Yu'an couldn't dodge in time and was nearly hit. He could only lie down beside the bed in a mess. Upon closer inspection, he found that they were just a few broken branches blown by the strong wind.
Qianqian was suddenly lifted up from the bed by the wind and was about to hit the broken French window. Fortunately, the bedside table stopped her and she fell to the ground. She was so scared that she grabbed the bed leg tightly.
The strong wind blew broken bricks and tiles into the house, and large gulps of cold air poured into the mouths and noses of the two people. Han Yu'an and Qian Qianqian felt that they could not breathe, and a feeling of suffocation almost drowned their consciousness.
Qianqian wanted to scream like crazy, but she couldn't make a single sound. She couldn't make a single sound at all, and the only sound in her head was the howling wind.

Villa in Xindu community.
Xia Shige and his family couldn't sleep either. There was a howling sound of the wind outside the house, and even his grandmother was woken up.
The family gathered in the living room anxiously, looking at the situation outside the window.
"I've never encountered such a strong wind in my life. The trees in the green area outside have been blown away. Will the roof of our house be blown away?" Sun Yuegui asked a little worriedly.
"No, auntie. Our family has been through this before." Xia Shige consoled her. "The hardest-hit area by this tornado is not our area. We are relatively safe here."
"This is strange. Our country has many mountains and such a big tornado is really rare," said Grandma Liu.
Most tornadoes occur in the Great Plains of America, where there are no mountains to block the monsoon, so thunderstorm tornadoes are more likely to form. However, China is mountainous, so tornadoes are rare.
Thinking of this, Grandma Liu sighed and said, "It looks like this day is really going to be a mess."
The villa area and lower floors were fine, but residents in higher floors only felt a shaking. Many people thought it was an earthquake and ran downstairs.
Fortunately, the building managers of each building responded promptly. They were afraid that the residents would run out and be blown away by the wind, so they stopped the people who wanted to flee and shouted, "It's not an earthquake, it's the shaking caused by the strong wind. Don't worry, don't go out!"
After a while, Xia Shige received a message from the community group. It was from the property management, reminding everyone that the shaking was caused by strong winds, and asked everyone to take shelter on lower floors or in the basement, not to go to open areas outside, and to stay away from floor-to-ceiling windows.
Some business owners who ran downstairs gathered nervously in the lobby on the first floor, looking anxiously at the scene outside the window.
Two hours later, peace finally returned to the world.
"It finally stopped. Even earthquakes aren't this scary. My house is on the 22nd floor and it was shaking so badly that I almost couldn't stand."
"My house is on the 27th floor. Not only was the ground shaking, but the wind outside was blowing like a ghost screaming. I was so scared that I ran down the stairs in one breath. I don't know how I could run 27 floors in one breath. I usually run 1 floor and I'm out of breath."
"Me too, me too. I thought it was an earthquake, so I ran downstairs wrapped in a blanket without putting on any clothes."
"I was playing a game when I suddenly felt the ground shaking and heard a howling sound. I thought a monster had escaped from the computer game! I was so scared that I threw my mouse away and ran down!"
"I stayed up all night working for a week and thought I was hallucinating and that I was going to be taken away by my grandmother."
Everyone gathered in the lobby on the first floor, feeling terrified for a while, and went home while discussing the situation.
