116 Sneaky Fiance (1/2)

”Wait,” Li Yaun shouted and as the woman pass by him. The pair of eyes were oddly familiar.

The woman didn't stop, fueling his suspicion. he indicated his men to bring him the girl.

Lei Xinyi ran toward the door only to see it blocked and men guarding it. The heavy footsteps were following her.

She hissed, she was surrounded and there was no way out for her.

Frantically her eyes searched the surrounding when her eyes landed on the staircase leading to the roof, she ran toward it and climbed the stairs.

The door to the roof was locked and she could hear the footsteps prancing the stairs.

The lock unlike the other locks here wasn't a complex combination to her relief.

She took out the pin from her hair and started working on the lock.

The footsteps were nearing. Lei Xinyi bit her lip. Her hands were shaking.

She was almost done when the pin stuck in the rusty lock and broke. Her breath hitched in her throat.

The men were at the end of the stairs and she could very well see them now.

She froze for a moment then took out the sharp pin from her hair of the size of a dagger and like a madwoman attacked the locks consecutively.

She ignored the nearing footsteps behind her and continued hitting the locks with rapid speed and force, making loud clanking noises.

'CLANK!'

With a loud noise the lock was broken. Lei Xinyi opened the door immediately and closed it after her.

She knew they would open the door in a while but it will keep them till she could get off their radar.

Lei Xinyi saw the edge of the building where another building was connected to it but the distance was too much.

While she was pondering on her next move the lock broke. Lei Xinyi looked at the men nearing her.

She took plenty of steps back then jumped.

She fell but instead of the cold hard floor she felt the shop-shelter beneath her.

She took out the pocket knife from her pocket and tore it and landed on the floor rather ungracefully.

Li Yaun's men had jumped too and were hot on her heels. Lei Xinyi was about to run in the opposite direction when A red car parked stopped and the car's door slid open.

Lei Xinyi immediately ran inside it and shut the door and the car drove away instantly.

Lei Xinyi took deep calming breaths.

”Close call?”
