Chapter 631 - If It Were Anyone Else, They Would Already Run Away At The Sight Of The Robber (1/2)

The moon was waxing and the ancient city of Wuyuan was accompanied only by dim street lights. The old residential area was completely dark. All the residents started to fall asleep.

Xian Guiying took out a small flashlight and walked down the corridor. As soon as she reached the second floor, the flashlight went out. She stopped, sighed, threw a flashlight into her bag, and walked up the stairs step by step in the darkness.

No matter what, Xian Guiying was still a woman and a human being. Although she did not believe in ghosts, the sound of footsteps echoing in the darkness was still quite frightening when it was almost midnight. She felt a chill run down her spine and hesitated for a moment. She didn't know if she should go back downstairs to buy a flashlight battery or not.

After considering it for a while, she felt that she was thinking too much about it. Gritting her teeth, she held the bag around her waist and quickly walked forward.

When Xian Guiying finally got to the front door, she immediately felt relieved and fumbled with the bag around her waist to get the key.

As soon as she took out the key, someone suddenly rushed from below. Xian Guiying instantly felt a chill on her neck. She was so shocked that her whole body froze. She did not dare to move recklessly.

She was not afraid of thieves or robbers. It didn't matter if they robbed the money from her bag, but with the key in her hands, she was afraid the bad guys would break into the house and hurt her daughter, who should be asleep by now.

Xian Guiying didn't dare move. She just heard the person behind her say, ”If you don't want to die, open the door and bring out the valuables inside the house!”

Just as Xian Guiying was about to lift the legs to avoid the knife at her neck, the person behind her warned coldly, ”Don't move!”

No matter how fast Xian Guiying was, she will never be faster than a knife. If something happened to her, then this person would definitely open the door and enter with her key. At that time, Qin Wenqian may… She couldn't finish that thought.

Xian Guiying wasn't sure how old this man was. He sounded like a man in his forties. She's a woman, and there's a four-year-old kid in the house.

Just as she was thinking about how to handle this, she heard footsteps from above. The man behind her seemed to freeze for a moment as he didn't think anyone would come down tonight. He did not hear the sound of the door opening.

Did the person come down from the roof?

”Why is someone taking a breath on the roof so late at night? Is there anything wrong with this person?!” The robber muttered in a low voice. When he saw Xian Guiying was about to move, he immediately pressed the knife to her neck again. ”In this world, even if someone came down, no one would intervene and save you! Open the door, or I will kill you!”

Xian Guiying lowered her head and looked at the key in her hand. She did not consider herself at all. She had to find another way, otherwise her daughter would be in danger.

Her gaze shifted to the open ventilation window across the corridor. Her grip on the key tightened. Suddenly, someone came walking down the stairs.

Hearing the unhurried footsteps, the robber immediately turned around. It was a man walking down the stairs. It was clear that the man had noticed the situation.

The robber swallowed his saliva and accidentally cut Xian Guiying's neck with a knife, causing a small wound to appear.

Xian Guiying frowned and took the opportunity to handle the robber. As she moved her arm to remove the bag, the sounds of footsteps were getting louder and louder.

The robber's hand trembled around Xian Guyiing's neck as he raised his voice, ”I ... I said, there's a knife in my hand!”

While he talked to Xian Guying, he also reminded the man to think about his own business.
