"What...what are you doing?! Guards..."
Before she could finish her cry for help, Miss Qiao's lips were suddenly covered.
Her eyes widened, and she struggled violently, trying to call for her maid, but then she remembered that she had secretly gone out alone today!
"Don't struggle," Xi Xingxue said slowly in her ear, "if you don't want to die."
Several bodyguards were guarding outside the door, but the madam had instructed them not to come in, and Xi Xingxue couldn't make too much of a commotion.
He tore off the madam's belt and tied Miss Qiao up, gagged her, and then looked at the money on the ground and Xie Yin, who was silently watching them from the soft couch.
"Your money, and him, are all mine now."
Xi Xingxue said shamelessly.
Miss Qiao: "......" Her heart ached with anger.
Xi Xingxue didn't rush to help Xie Yin; he planned to open the locked window and escape from there.
The second floor, not high.
While opening the window, Xi Xingxue kindly offered a few words of explanation.
“The madam’s actions are illegal. He was forcibly kidnapped by the madam. It’s not excessive for me to take him away like this, and it even saves you 170,000.”
As soon as she finished speaking, the window clicked open, and Xi Xingxue turned to hug Xie Yin, who was lying on the couch.
Xie Yin was shocked because he knew the truth.
If that's the case, then this "woman" came to save him to uphold justice?
In any case, it's better than buying him home as a husband. Xie Yin breathed a sigh of relief and let Xi Xingxue pick him up.
Xi Xingxue was preparing to jump out of the window with Xie Yin.
The next second.
A hand suddenly reached out from the window.
A tall figure flipped up, accompanied by the instant stench of blood filling the house.
Tick-tock, tick-tock.
The man held up a knife, and the blood on the knife formed droplets that dripped onto the ground.
Miss Qiao stared wide-eyed in horror.
Anyone would know that the person who suddenly climbed in through the window was most likely a desperate criminal who had just committed murder.
And at that moment, she was closest to this desperate man.
Xi Xingxue's heart raced as she watched the person who suddenly climbed in through the window.
What a coincidence!
Someone climbed over the window as soon as I opened it.
So, the rescue of Xie Yin wasn't as simple as it seemed?
The man glanced at Xi Xingxue, who was holding Xie Yin, and then looked at Miss Qiao. "Do you have money?"
Xi Xingxue pointed to the ground.
There are 30,000 silver notes in the box.
Since it's not my own money, I don't feel bad about losing it.
The man's eyes lit up when he heard about the large sum of money.
However, instead of taking the money immediately, he took the knife and walked towards Miss Qiao.
"Ugh! Ugh! Ugh!" Miss Qiao struggled violently.
The man raised his wrist, the blade about to strike down hard.
Miss Qiao's heart leaped into her throat, sending chills down her spine and leaving her in a state of extreme terror and paralysis.
"Wait, don't do it yet, don't you want the money?" Xi Xingxue's voice, which stopped her, was like heavenly music.
The man paused only for a moment before saying without turning his head, "Don't even think about wasting time."
Having said that, he was about to swing his knife again and kill Miss Qiao.
Is this man a repeat offender?
Xi Xingxue knew in her heart that something was wrong.
She swiftly threw Xie Yin back onto the bed and rushed over to kick the man in the buttocks.
The man's knife was about to fall, but fortunately it was kicked off course by the sudden kick, and the blade landed on the back of the chair, just missing Miss Qiao's shoulder.
"Ugh!" Tears streamed down Miss Qiao's face as she felt a surge of gratitude towards Xi Xingxue.
"You're really bold."
Enraged by Xi Xingxue, the man turned around and slashed at her with a knife.
In fact, Xi Xingxue did not have any martial arts skills. She had just spent a lot of time with Shen Yu and the others and had learned some skills from them.
But this man was clearly more skilled than him, and he also had a knife.
Xi Xingxue could only resist him by holding up the chair.
"Ping-pong-clang."
The chair was hacked with a long sword, leaving many cracks.
Xi Xingxue dodged left and right, but was not injured.
Hearing the commotion, the two bodyguards who were dozing outside the door finally realized what was happening inside and quickly pushed the door open and rushed in.
But once they entered, they were dumbfounded.
The madam lay unconscious on the ground, Miss Qiao was tied up, and a man with a knife chased a woman wearing a straw hat all over the room.
"Who are you?!"
The bodyguards rushed over to subdue him.
The next moment, he was kicked away by the man with the knife.
Another person lunged forward, but was also kicked away.
Xi Xingxue was shocked: How come these two bodyguards are weaker than him?
The two bodyguards fainted, and Xi Xingxue didn't get a chance to catch her breath. She only had time to change to a new chair as a shield.
The man with the knife was targeting Xi Xingxue, who was as cunning as a squid.
He continued charging forward.
The blade narrowly grazed Xi Xingxue's arm, splattering a drop of blood.
Xi Xingxue let out a muffled groan.
He was injured.
He desperately ran towards the window, intending to jump.
The door was blocked by two bodyguards lying on the ground.
As for the people in the room? Never mind, saving your own life is the most important thing.
Xie Yin has the protagonist's halo, but he doesn't.
But just before Xi Xingxue reached the window, another hand appeared on the window the next second.
One person appeared to be preparing to climb up.
Xi Xingxue's pupils contracted sharply. Did the man with the knife have accomplices?
He instantly calculated an escape plan in his mind.
If you run past those two bodyguards, you might have a chance.
So Xi Xingxue turned and ran towards the door.
The man with the knife chased after them relentlessly.
The next second, Xi Xingxue bumped into the person who suddenly appeared at the door.
Holy crap!
Xi Xingxue was not as tall as him and was knocked to the ground.
Ye Chenxing looked at the "woman" he had knocked to the ground, but didn't have time to help her up. Instead, he took his sword and stabbed at the man with the knife in the room.
When the man with the knife saw that Ye Chenxing had actually chased after him, he panicked and quickly ran towards the window.
But a member of the Imperial Guard had already climbed up through the window.
