The person outside stood hesitantly outside the door.
Shen Qingran closed her mouth and nose slightly. Although it was dark, she could still see everything in sight thanks to the moonlight.
The person outside seems to be spinning in circles.
Then, the person seemed to come down the stairs, and there was no more sound.
After about ten minutes, everything returned to calm.
Shen Qingran lowered her guard and looked out through the peephole of the door.
There was no one outside the door.
That's not right!
Shen Qingran pondered to himself.
There must have been someone outside just now!
But who could this person be? Is it Shen Yulian or Zheng Xiuyu?
After all, only these two people saw me holding the box when I first came back.
If it were Zheng Xiuyu, Shen Qingran would indeed be on high alert. Thinking this, Shen Qingran took out a bottle of medicine from her spatial storage.
Zheng Xiuyu must have had extraordinary abilities to escape from the Military Intelligence Bureau and still look quite young.
If it's Shen Yulian, then...
Seeing that there was no more movement outside, Shen Qingran dared not let her guard down.
Shen Qingran placed a dagger and medicine under her pillow.
At that moment, the moonlight outside shone through the window and fell onto the ground.
In her past life, Shen Qingran appreciated this moonlight only because she had been locked up in a cowshed for being disobedient.
Shen Qingran still remembers the ferocious face of the village chief's son from her previous life.
It was under such moonlight.
But at that time, I felt so helpless, so desperately pleading with God to save me.
But refusing to submit, even at the cost of death, resulted in a miserable death in her previous life.
This lifetime!
As Shen Qingran thought about her mother, her eyes welled up with tears.
After an unknown amount of time, Shen Qingran became somewhat dazed.
In my dream, it seemed to be my mother smiling as she coaxed me to sleep, calling my nickname.
"Creak!"
Shen Qingran immediately snapped out of her daze and looked at the clock on the wall.
Two o'clock in the morning.
These people certainly know how to pick their time!
This is precisely the time when people are most tired and sleepy.
It seems that person was planning to make their move after I fell asleep.
Shen Qingran pretended to be asleep, lying half-reclined on the bed in a defensive posture.
"Click!" With a soft sound, the door opened.
Shen Qingran gripped the dagger and medicine bottle tightly in her hand.
"Oh no, the form! Let's find something first!"
"Don't worry, once we find the item, it's mine, and the person is yours!"
"Don't worry, I, Shen Yulian, always keep my word!"
Under the moonlight, the two men sneaked into the house.
Shen Qingran narrowed her eyes as the two people, one tall and one short, entered the house.
Without a doubt, the tall one must be Shen Yulian's silly cousin.
The other one must be her good younger sister, Shen Yulian.
Those two really have a clever plan!
Shen Yulian tiptoed around searching for the box, while Bian Shi went to the bedside first. Looking at Shen Qingran, who was pretending to be asleep, she unconsciously swallowed.
"So beautiful!"
"Sigh, if I could marry a wife like this in this life, my life would have been worthwhile!"
Cousin Zheng Lin kept inhaling the faint fragrance.
Zheng Linsheng was tall, but clumsy and fat, with a crooked face and triangular eyes just like Shen Yulian's.
Shen Qingran felt nauseous, but she couldn't act immediately; she had to wait for the right opportunity.
Zheng Lin reluctantly left Shen Qingran and followed Shen Yulian to find the so-called box.
Inside Shen Qingran's room, there was a wardrobe, a dressing table, and a few simple corner cabinets, which was basically all there was to see.
