Chapter 262 The Lifesaving Dowry

Jiang Yan was clearly moving around inside the consultation room while it was outside the door. As long as the door remained closed and he couldn't see anyone, he wouldn't attack.

She used the dowry chest to block Jiang Yan's view before cautiously continuing to press the keyboard.

She kept her body still, not even lowering her head, but glancing down with her eyes, and first placed her finger on the number 1.

The keyboard made a soft "click" sound.

To her, the sound was almost like a thunderclap.

If the Holy Land has such advanced technology, how come it can't even make a silent keyboard?

She listened intently towards the corridor, but heard nothing. So, she cautiously pressed 4 and 5 again.

Heavy breathing came from the other side of the box wall, growing louder and louder. Jiang Yan seemed to hear the noise and walked over.

She dared not press any further and remained standing there in the same position.

On the other side of the wall of the chest, Jiang Yan's breathing moved from one wall to the other, as if she were studying the wall. She could even hear Jiang Yan's fingers tracing across the dowry chest, as if she were testing it.

She slowly raised her arm and stuffed her sleeve into her mouth so that her teeth wouldn't make a sound.

What she most wanted to hear now was the sound of Jiang Yan's footsteps fading into the distance, and what she feared most was that the box would suddenly collapse and Jiang Yan's dark claws would reach in.

"Father, Mother, please bless your daughter to escape danger safely," Su Wan prayed in her heart. "I don't want to die here. I still want to save A Jin and grow old with him for the rest of my life."

The clinic had clearly cured Chu Yi, and she believed she could definitely cure Wei Jingzhuo as well.

Perhaps his prayers worked, or perhaps Jiang Yan, in his delirium, mistook the walls of the box for those heavy metal doors. He lingered for a while, his footsteps gradually disappearing into the depths of the corridor.

Su Wan dared not breathe. Only when the sound of wading through water echoed from the depths of the corridor did she gently press 6 again.

Jiang Yan must have gone to the disinfection room again. Under the cover of the sound of water, she could press the keyboard without being noticed by Jiang Yan.

The sound of wading in the water continued, and she quickly pressed 23, but it still wasn't right.

She tried a different combination and pressed it.

The moment the last number was pressed, a buzzing sound came from inside the wall, the gate shook, and slowly opened to both sides, revealing the courtyard wall covered with vines and the many roofs outside.

Once the door was wide enough, Su Wan pushed the cart and ran outside.

With such a loud noise from the door opening, Jiang Yan couldn't possibly miss it; escaping for his life was the priority.

Let's just leave it at that. With the door opening so slowly, Jiang Yan will probably catch up before it's even fully open.

Just as Su Wan reached the courtyard gate, a loud bang came from the rock wall, and several dowry chests flew out like cannonballs, filled with gold, silver, jewels, and fragments of the chests' mahogany. They shimmered with yellow, white, red, and green lights in the setting sun.

Among these valuables was Jiang Yan, who was leaping in the air, his entire body pitch black and resembling a demon.
