Chapter 350: Chapter 350: Play Hard (2) _1

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?"

Quite soon, footsteps approached the balcony - step by step, growing closer to Xia Wan’an’s hiding spot.

Her nervous breathing stopped and her palms sweaty from gripping the heels, preparing at any moment to attack the intruder as soon as he entered.

The footsteps were extremely close now. Xia Wan’an bit the bullet and raised her hand, but the moment she expected the intruder to enter, a doorbell suddenly rang downstairs.

All sounds in the room were extinguished instantly.

The doorbell didn’t stop ringing, its startling sound breaking the silence of the dark night.

"Who would come at this hour? Did she secretly find help?" The voice of the man close to the balcony was so close that Xia Wan’an couldn’t help but swallow in fear.

"I’m not sure, I’ll go down and check. You continue searching for her in the room, if you find her, handle the business at hand..."

With that, the man left, and as his footsteps faded away at the bedroom door, the other man standing in the room pushed open the balcony door...

...

The doorbell kept ringing, growing more urgent with time.

The man who went downstairs had a buzz cut and dark skin. He came to the door and first glanced at the display of the security camera outside, finding a delivery man waiting just outside the door.

Did that woman order a takeout in the middle of the night?

The buzz-cut man didn’t give it a second thought and directly opened the door. He harshly stretched out his hand to the delivery man, "Give me the food."

The delivery guy asked while casually taking off his box pack, "Is this Miss Xia’s place?"

The buzz-cut man impatiently replied, "Yes."

"Could you please have Miss Xia come and tell me her verification code?"

"What verification code? Why does a simple delivery have to be so complicated? Are you going to hand it over, or get out!" The buzz-cut man, completely out of patience, spoke crassly. While it wasn’t possible to see the face of the delivery man clearly due to his cap, one could sense a coldness emanating from his smirk. However, his voice remained steady, "We have such a procedure for night-time deliveries. You need to tell me the verification code..."

The buzz-cut man had completely lost his patience. He didn’t even bother to reply to the delivery guy and just tried to close the door.

However, just as the door was half shut, a sharp scream of a girl echoed from upstairs.
