1297 I Want to Make You Stay 175 (2/2)

Old Mrs. Donggong uttered in a mocking tone, ”She emits a seductive air, just like a vixen.”

”Are you jealous just because she's young and pretty?”

”I'm not someone like that. How many years could she possibly be younger than me? When she grows as old as me, she'll probably look worse than I do.”

”…”

An Xiaoning, who was on the roof, was seriously dumbfounded from hearing what the old lady said. Seeing how the eldery couple were about to sleep and were no longer chatting, she got ready for her next plan of action. The only piece of useful information she had gained was what Old Mr. Donggong had said earlier about them suffering the sins their ancestors had committed.

But it did not matter to An Xiaoning.

They would hardly say anything she wanted to know when they're awake, but when they were asleep, An Xiaoning would definitely make them spill out everything.

She gently covered the tile on the roof and took light steps to leave with Donggong Lianzhi.

The tiles on an old roof were definitely not as solid as those on a new house. Moreover, with two adults standing on it, it was difficult to not make a sound.

When Donggong Lianzhi almost slipped, An Xiaoning instantly grabbed onto his arm to support him. He was evidently shocked but tried to balance his body and bent down, slowly heading forward.

The two both did not know if the sound created earlier alarmed the people in the house, but they increased the speed at which they went across the roof and got down from it.

Almost immediately after they had gone down, someone appeared to check on the roof. It seemed that they had really alerted the people in the house.

Coincidentally, at this moment, a cat started climbing onto the roof, making it a close shave for them.

Following this, An Xiaoning had wanted to stop him from going along with her. After all, with one more person around, it was easier for them to be exposed and there would not be as much freedom as a single person would have.

However, after much careful thought, she still allowed him to go along with her.

There was a maid guarding outside the Old Master and Old Madam's bedroom. But luckily, all the bodyguards were outside the main door. As long as they did not alarm the people outside the main door, getting in wasn't a difficult task under the premise that they did not alert the elderly couple inside the room.

An Xiaoning took out her killer's weapon from her bag and swiftly poured the liquid in the bottle onto a handkerchief, which left her skin wet as well.

She took the handkerchief and made her way to a corner quietly before heading toward the girl who was sitting there alone to guard the room.

Although the girl was on night duty because no one was around and the night was long, she had her head lowered as she played games on her phone. After all, it was quite unlikely for her to be caught. There were many rules in the Donggong family, but as long as one was not caught, it was fine.

She had been doing this almost every night.

An Xiaoning went forward and accurately covered her nose and mouth area with the handkerchief. Within two seconds, the girl passed out.

She allowed the girl to rest against a huge pillar and took the phone in her hand, which was about to fall to the ground, before placing it back in her hand properly. From afar, it looked like she had just fallen asleep.

An Xiaoning made a gesture from around the corner, and Donggong Lianzhi came walking over briskly. As he walked, he did not forget to take light footsteps.

Donggong Lianzhi led her and pushed open the door gently. Having lived in the Donggong residence for so many years, he was more than familiar about how to make the wooden doors not make a sound as he opened them.

The two went in and closed the door behind them.

An Xiaoning made Donggong Lianzhi stand there by himself while she went in. She intended to call him in only when she had the situation under control.

While he was standing right at the door, he was extremely nervous as he watched her enter the bedroom slowly.

An Xiaoning speedily covered the old lady's nose and mouth with the handkerchief, making her pass out almost instantly.

This was because she intended to hypnotize only the old patriarch.
