Chapter 552 - A Strange Knock (2/2)

Madam Shu was speechless.

She was about to say something when several knocks could be heard at the door.

“Who’s there?” Shu Man and her mother looked toward the door.

The person outside did not respond but continued knocking.

The knocks continued for some time.

“I’ll go take a look,” Shu Man said as she headed to the door. “Who are you?”

“Mum, did you order some takeout or did you order something online?” she asked. Normally, these random strangers at the door were deliverymen.

Madam Shu frowned and looked bewildered as she said, “I didn’t.” She was an old woman, so why would she order takeaway?

The person outside knocked once more and this time, the stranger at the door knocked even louder, so the women inside the house were a little worried.

They couldn’t figure out who could be at the door since this stranger did not speak but merely continued to knock at the door.

Shu Man’s hands moved away from the door handle. They didn’t live in a luxurious neighborhood so the security here wasn’t that great.

“I’ll call the police if you keep that up!” Shu Man yelled and she could make out a blurry figure through the peephole but she couldn’t see this person’s face. She could only see that the stranger was in a black shirt that seemed to be masculine. The person standing outside was clearly a man and he stood very close to the door.
