As Lin Xiaochu spoke, she purposely turned to glance at Yun Jian, looking exactly like she was saying, “We know Taekwondo. What about you? You know nothing! Hope you meet the bandit and cry for help!”
“Xiaochu, don’t say that. What I know now is barely adequate for campus. It’s still useless when it comes to being in the outside world.” Hu Qirui had a good sense of self-awareness and was able to see where he stood.
However, Lin Xiaochu retorted right after he spoke, “Senior Rui, you’re just being humble!”
The girl had spoken with her gaze on Yun Jian, her eyes oozing with a strong hint of provocation. After a two-second silence, she continued to scoff, “Humph, don’t come begging Senior Rui or us to save you if anything happens later!”
Yun Jian threw Lin Xiaochu a fleeting glimpse before turning to head upstairs. She usually ignored people like this.
“Pft, please, what’s she being so c.o.c.ky about?” Lin Xiaochu began to gripe when she saw it.
Just as she said that, however, Hu Qirui chided, “Xiaochu, don’t be rude!”
Lin Xiaochu listened well to Hu Qirui since she felt differently for him.
The group gradually fell into silence.
Yun Jian had already gone up to the second floor during then. While the inn was quite tattered, it had plenty of rooms. Yun Jian shared a room with Lan Su while Ya Dang had a room to himself.
Not too long after Yun Jian went back to his room, Hu Qirui and his friends carried their luggage upstairs noisily, staying not too far away from Yun Jian’s room.
The night descended upon them soon. There was no fluorescent light in the inn and candles were usually used for illumination.
Right now, Yun Jian was lying on the bed and gazing at the stars and moon in the sky through the broken window that could not even block the chilly wind from the outside. There was no connection in Country A, so cellphones were unable to make calls.
“Yun Jian, you haven’t slept?” Lan Su turned and went closer to Yun Jian to ask.
“Mn,” Yun Jian replied with a soft hum and stayed silent.
When Lan Su thought that Yun Jian would not be speaking more, the latter said faintly, “I’m going to sleep now.”
She was about to shut her pretty eyes after speaking when she suddenly seemed to have heard something. Her long eyelashes fluttered open before they could close.
“Yun Jian, there’s a noise.” Lan Su opened her eyes as well.
Sleep slipped away from both of them instantly.
“Mn.” Yun Jian nodded first before telling Lan Su softly, “Sleep.”
What she meant by the word was naturally for them to fake sleeping. After spending so much time with Yun Jian, Lan Su understood it right away.
Both Yun Jian and Lan Su closed their eyes.
In the dark, the shaky door without a lock was opened and someone sneaked in making as little noise as possible. A while later, Yun Jian could feel the silhouette watching her and gulping hungrily.
From the moonlight, it could be seen that the shadow was stretching a hand toward Yun Jian. Three seconds before the hand could touch Yun Jian’s cheek, her leg that had been laying limp on the bed raised up and turned 90 degrees to kick the shadow who wanted to furtively touch her face.
“Argh!” The person cried in pain and was flung several meters away by the kick.
The person was not expecting the girl to wake up or the level of her dexterity!
