Mi Shen was awakened in the middle of the night by a bout of urgent knocking.
She suddenly opened her eyes, threw off the covers, and that sound continued; it wasn't a dream—someone really was pounding on the door!
In the dead of night, this knocking sounded especially jarring and frightening.
Mi Shen sat up in bed for a while, but couldn't resist anymore; she threw off the covers and got out of bed.
Li Fengchang clearly heard the noise too; as she left her room, he was coming down the stairs.
"Fengchang," Mi Shen instinctively moved closer to him, "Who is it this late at night?"
Li Fengchang grasped her fingertips, "I'll go take a look."
Shuiyue Restaurant area, in Tongcheng, is one of the top villa neighborhoods, and there had never been any security problems since its establishment.
But Mi Shen was still scared.
Seeing him let go of her hand and take a couple steps forward, she felt uneasy and quickly followed, staying close behind him, "I'll come with you."
