"Do you have any extra pillows?"
Wei Wenjie was about to get her a padded sheet to cover her bed when he heard her request and agreed with a smile, "Yes, I'll bring it to you later."
He climbed up the stairs a few steps and looked for the cushion underneath. The bench was too hard and she would definitely not be used to it. He originally slept with his father and had never expected that Tian Xiaolan would come to his house to sleep.
Find the pillows and cushions, roll them up and carry them down, then lay them out on the stool below.
Tian Xiaolan lay down without hesitation, covered herself with the thin blanket he brought and closed her eyes.
Wei Wenjie saw that she was asleep and thought that she must be very tired after walking for so long today, so he turned off the lights first, then slowly climbed onto the bed, closed his eyes and went to sleep.
After a while, Wei Wenjie didn't hear any sound and fell asleep peacefully.
Tian Xiaolan waited until she heard Wei Wenjie snoring before she slowly got up, trying not to make any noise. She took a few steps and looked to see if Wei Wenjie reacted. Only when she saw that he had no reaction did she dare to continue walking.
It’s not that she didn’t want to bring Wei Wenjie with her, but it was really too dangerous. If he was used to threaten her, wouldn’t she lose everything?
So it was best to leave him here. She held her breath and closed the door gently, making only a slight sound to avoid him getting anxious. She also took the time to leave him a note saying that she was going to the bathroom. She hoped that after reading the note, he would not be so anxious.
After doing all this, it was still dark outside, so she found a stick, wrapped it in some oil, lit a match and illuminated the road around her.
So she held the torch and went to the edge of the town that Wei Wenjie mentioned.
It was still hot and humid even after leaving the town. Even if you did nothing, you would still sweat on your forehead. Tian Xiaolan wiped it off and continued walking.
Wei Wenjie didn't tell her which side of the city they were on, so she relied on her sixth sense to go to the left, because there was a brick factory on the right. Most of the hooligans had a sense of territory, and since they couldn't rob them, they would go to other places.
If she guessed correctly, they should still be discussing how to rob them in the middle of the night.
Not long after she walked, she heard a sound not far away. She immediately extinguished the torch in her hand and sneaked over quietly, avoiding the big shadows based on her memory.
The sound of several people talking was heard under a tree not far away. Tian Xiaolan was not in a hurry to go up, but first listened to their next plans.
Tian Xiaolan squatted there and listened to them talking as if no one was around. The reason she was so sure that they didn't go back was because Wei Wenjie's words made her understand everything at once.
An impatient voice came: "Boss, aren't we going to get those two Rilong bags?"
"Why are you in such a hurry? Let's wait until they fall asleep, then we'll go over and cover their heads and beat them up. You must first pin that woman's hands up and gag her."
Tian Xiaolan heard that the person who just spoke should be the boss. She didn't expect that he had a plan and made a good layout. Unfortunately, he was destined to fail today.
"Okay, Boss, what are you going to do with that woman?"
The young man gritted his teeth. He pressed his hand and it still hurt. Needless to say, it was bruised now. And they had brought this upon themselves. "Just give me a beating, what else do you want to do?"
"Boss, don't you want us to play for a bit?"
"Yeah, hehehe~"
"Whatever you want! Don't cause any trouble, I won't help you clean it up!"
Tian Xiaolan listened to them talking about herself and found it amusing. She didn't know what expressions would appear on their faces when they saw her, and she couldn't wait to see it.
After a while, someone couldn't wait and asked when we could go.
Their boss just said that they could leave.
While they were getting up from the ground, Tian Xiaolan was silently moving her legs and feet. They were numb from squatting for too long.
"Which one is there?!" Someone heard the sound and looked over here.
Tian Xiaolan wasn't afraid. She stepped forward and said, "Hello, you guys are looking for me! Why don't you seem happy to see me?"
The leading young man recognized her as the woman who had held him down. She had actually chased him here. But it was just right. He could catch her now and then go and catch Wei Wenjie directly.
She was quite brave, daring to come out alone. It was her bad luck to meet him. He didn't even think about how she accidentally couldn't sleep, walked here, and accidentally ran into them. Now all he wanted in his mind was to catch her and the money would be theirs.
Seeing that she didn't run away, she was just waiting to be caught by them.
The night was like a huge black curtain, hanging heavily on the woods. There was no moonlight, and the sky was as dark and deep as ink, with only a few faint stars.
In the darkness, Tian Xiaolan moved frantically to avoid being chased.
The boss was giving orders anxiously, his voice sounding particularly harsh in the darkness.
"Over there, go!"
Some people were confused by her and asked, "Which way?"
When someone approached Tian Xiaolan, she acted as quickly as lightning and kicked them away.
The person who was kicked groaned, fell heavily to the ground, and couldn't get up for a long time.
Seeing this, the boss looked at the fallen people with a look of disappointment, his heart filled with anger. He thought they were so shameful that they couldn't even deal with a woman.
Deep in the woods, the darkness grew thicker, as if hiding countless unknown dangers.
The leading young man frowned slightly and sighed. He had just carefully observed Tian Xiaolan's movements and noticed her habit of using her feet, so he had a plan in his mind.
He moved his wrist and walked steadily towards Tian Xiaolan.
At this time in the woods, the only sound was the occasional rustling of leaves mixed with some people's wailing.
Those who tried to capture her were so exhausted that they were out of breath and fell to the ground groaning, unable to get up for a long time.
