It had been twelve minutes since she hung up Han Jingnian's call. She had only eighteen more minutes before Jingnian would arrive...
As a woman, it was unrealistic for her to face off with two men, but no matter how unrealistic, she had to prolong this for eighteen minutes...
With this thought, Xia Wan'an grabbed a pair of high heels from the dressing room. Holding one in each hand, she held her breath and hid behind the balcony wall.
Just as she steadied herself, the bedroom door was kicked open with a deafening "bang".
Xia Wan'an's heart leaped to her throat. Clutching the high heels tightly, she tried to steady herself, keeping her nerves taut and observing the two men who had entered the room.
"No one's on the bed... not in the dressing room either..."
"Not in the bathroom either, let's check the wardrobes..."
As they spoke, the room filled with the sound of them rummaging through the wardrobes.
"Strange, where is she hiding?"
"Did you check the balcony?"
