Chapter 235: Missing the Mark
When she returned to the old building, Qin Xi picked up a stone and played with it in her hand. She looked at the window on the fourth floor.
Just as Lone Wolf was puzzled, Qin Xi took out the note she had written down and pulled off the rubber band that could tie half of her hair. She tied the note to the stone, aid at the window, and tossed it out.
With a whoosh, the stone shattered the glass on the fourth floor. Then, she hid in the next door. Seeing this, Lone Wolf followed suit.
Master Qi was in the middle of doing his business. At the sudden sound, he imdiately stopped.
He was so angry that his face turned green. He picked up the clothes beside him and walked to the window. He looked down, thinking that it was a prank by a naughty child. He shouted, “Damn it, who is it? Who dares to smash my window? Don’t let catch you, or I’ll skin you alive.”
“Damn it, how dare you smash my window? Do you want to die?”
The more he cursed, the fiercer he beca. At this mont, the woman on the bed was also dressed. She noticed a note tied to a rock and walked over to pick it up. She said calmly, “There’s a note here.”
Master Qi’s eyes narrowed and his heart skipped a beat. For so reason, he had a very bad feeling. He quickly took the note and unfolded it. There were only a few words written on it: “Your whereabouts have been exposed. Retreat quickly!”
He was shocked, his pupils constricted, and his grip on the note tightened. He quickly put on his clothes and warned the woman solemnly, “I have to get going. If anyone asks , you know what to say. Rember, no matter what, you can’t tell them our relationship. Otherwise, you can forget about seeing your daughter.”
Seeing that he was flustered and nervous, the woman had so guesses. However, she did not want to miss this opportunity. She bit her lower lip and said with a trembling voice, “I, I haven’t seen my daughter in a long ti. Can you…”
Master Qi was dressed neatly and interrupted her. “We’ll talk about it next ti. Be good. I promise I can reunite you with your daughter.”
With that, he left in a hurry.
As she watched him leave, the woman sat on the ground in despair. Tears stread down her face.
She looked at the glass shards on the ground with blurry eyes. Suddenly, a terrifying thought echoed in her mind. She reached out and picked up a sharp glass piece with trembling hands. She looked at her wrist in a daze.
Just as she made up her mind to cut her wrist, there was a sudden knock on the door.
The woman instantly ca back to her senses. Her eyes suddenly turned vicious. She threw down the glass in her hand and staggered to the kitchen. She picked up the kitchen knife and took a deep breath at the door. With the thought of perishing together, she quickly opened the door. With her eyes closed, I raised the kitchen knife above her head and slashed down.
Before Qin Xi could speak, she felt her hair stand on end and a strong sense of threat engulfed her.
She did not have ti to think and instinctively took a step back. A cold light brushed past the tip of her nose and she broke out in a cold sweat. When she saw what it was, she imdiately heaved a sigh of relief.
Realizing that she had missed the mark, the woman subconsciously opened her eyes and saw a beautiful girl opposite her. Her face was pale. With a bang, the kitchen knife fell from her hand and dropped to the ground. She asked in an extrely terrified voice, “Who, who are you?”
