Chapter 96: Chapter 097: I’m Afraid (1)
Rong Zhi’s unexpected kiss left Lou Xi feeling a bit bewildered. After leaving the hospital, she went straight home, completely forgetting to check on Qin Mobai.
Once home, she took a shower and lay in bed, hoping that a good night’s sleep would make everything disappear.
Outside, only the lights were on, but she saw no one.
Lou Xi’s hands trembled as she dialed Qin Mobai’s number; it connected, but no one answered.
She clutched her phone tightly, tears streaming down her face in fear.
Does she actually like Qin Mobai instead of Rong Zhi?
"Officer, I’m alone in my apartment, someone is trying to break in. I’m so scared..." Being a girl, facing such a situation made her legs weak with fear.
Lou Xi quickly reported her address, "Officer, please don’t hang up, I’m scared... The noise outside is still there..."
But just now, she definitely heard knocking!
Lou Xi furrowed her brow and turned back into the room, dialing Qin Mobai’s number as she walked.
At that moment, Lou Xi felt her legs weaken, helplessly sliding down the door to the floor.
Could it be Qin Mobai?
Realizing this, Lou Xi suddenly felt an urge to call Qin Mobai and tell him her most genuine inner thoughts.
Just as she picked up her phone, she suddenly heard a knocking at the door.
Thinking about those girls who lived alone and were targeted by criminals, as she’d seen on Weibo...
"Miss, don’t be afraid. Please tell us your address, we’ll immediately send officers over!"
What should she do now?
Lou Xi shouted, "You bastard outside, you better leave! I’ve called the police, if you don’t go, they’ll come and arrest you!"
For some reason, a bad premonition arose in her heart.
The call went through, but no one answered.
The sound of someone pressing the password was gone, but she heard the sound of metal clashing—was the apartment door about to be pried open?
So...
Lou Xi sent Qin Mobai a message and immediately called the police.
Was it a mistake?
She quickly jumped out of bed and ran to the door, habitually looking through the peephole.
Her apartment had a password lock!
Tomorrow would be a brand new start.
Qin Mobai was different from Zhou Zichen. When Lou Xi was with Qin Mobai, she truly felt her heart flutter. When he asked her to stay by his side, she already envisioned spending her lifetime with him.
This was something she had never imagined before, yet it was happening right between her and Qin Mobai.
Apart from Bai Lu, only Qin Mobai knew she lived here. Bai Lu definitely wouldn’t come to find her at this hour, so it must be Qin Mobai!
"Who is it?" Lou Xi turned, looking at the door, and asked.
"Knock knock knock—" This time, Lou Xi really heard someone knocking.
But she couldn’t fall asleep at all; the faces of Rong Zhi and Qin Mobai alternated in her mind, no matter how hard she tried to shake them away.
She was a girl living alone in an apartment, and now it was ten o’clock at night; someone outside was knocking on the door.
Call Young Master Qin!
She felt so annoying like this. She was clearly already with Qin Mobai earlier, so why was she still thinking about Rong Zhi?
Moreover, there was no response from outside, only the sound of someone pressing buttons as if trying a password!
She was instantly frightened, immediately ran to the door, and locked it!
"I won’t hang up. Is your apartment door opening inward or outward? If it’s inward, push the table against it. Our officers are on their way."
