This was the top floor. If Shen Xiaoxiao wanted to escape, she had to go downstairs. However, she did not even need to think to know that there were people gathered downstairs to search for her.
There were a total of 12 floors of high-cla.s.s residential buildings. Shen Xiaoxiao went straight down the stairs and stopped when she reached the ninth floor.
Earlier, she had also seen people moving. It was the ninth floor. The only thing she could use was to run out through the people who moved.
However, her plan had not changed. Just as she ran to the tenth floor, the sound of footsteps from downstairs rang out. Just from the sound alone, Shen Xiaoxiao knew that there were at least ten people, and they were not far away from her. She immediately changed her mind. She walked into the fire escape from the tenth floor.
There were two houses on the first floor. Shen Xiaoxiao naturally knew that there were only two houses on this floor. Now that she was going to run away, it seemed that she had to find someone to help her.
Shen Xiaoxiao was still wearing her black coat today, but because of the fight earlier, her face was a little red. She smoothed her messy hair and directly knocked on the innermost door.
The sound of the doorbell and the footsteps in the stairwell were very obvious. She was really afraid that those people would suddenly turn around and run into the stairwell.
Shen Xiaoxiao prayed that there was someone in this house. Otherwise, she would really have no way out.
The doorbell rang for a long time. Just as Shen Xiaoxiao was about to be disappointed, the footsteps suddenly stopped in the stairwell. Creak. The door opened and an exasperated voice sounded, “Who the f*ck is it? It’s so early in the morning.”
Shen Xiaoxiao did not care. Seeing that the people seemed to have noticed something, she immediately pushed the door open and entered. The gun in her hand had not been thrown away even though there were no bullets. However, it was too easy to deal with a man who was weak and had just woken up.
The moment she entered the door, she slammed it shut. The muzzle of the gun was aimed at the half-naked young man. The heat in the room made Shen Xiaoxiao’s heart relax for a moment.
She looked at the man and only said one sentence, “Shut up, or I’ll shoot you.”
The man saw that the gun was aimed at him and indeed, he shut his mouth. Shen Xiaoxiao looked outside through the peephole. Those people had indeed sensed something and had already walked to the door. She hurriedly squatted down and looked at the dumbfounded young man. The young man seemed to have noticed something and looked at the child on Shen Xiaoxiao’s back. He did not know what was wrong with his head, but he suddenly released his hand and said loudly:
“How many times have I told you? If you’re going to smash a walnut, do it carefully. Bang, bang, bang! The neighbor next door is going to complain again! I just worked all night last night. Can you spare me some trouble? She’s a nanny, and you’re also a nanny. Is this how you do things with so much money…”
The man talked for a few minutes until the footsteps at the door disappeared. He did not seem to have any intention of stopping.
Shen Xiaoxiao could not help but carefully size up this somewhat smart young man. When she looked at him, she felt that he looked familiar, as if she had seen him somewhere before. However, when she saw the way he was staring at her with his back half-naked… Shen Xiaoxiao frowned as she pointed the gun at him and said, “Go in.”
Although this apartment was not like Du Ze’s apartment, it was still extremely s.p.a.cious. One could even see it clearly at a glance. The living room was especially enlarged. There were only two rooms, one bedroom, one study room, and one kitchen… There was no one else in this apartment other than this young man.
Otherwise, Shen Xiaoxiao would not have knocked on the door for so long without any response. Not only that, the walls of the room were covered with photos and posters, almost all of them belonged to this man. Shen Xiaoxiao finally knew why she felt that he looked familiar. It turned out that this man was not someone else, but someone who was famous and powerful.
“Bullets don’t have eyes. Don’t worry, I won’t report you to the police or betray you. Look at how well I cooperated just now. Moreover, look at you with your two children. I’m not stupid. I know that those people outside are definitely not good people. You’re the good person, right? Right?”
This kid was not only young, but he was also very sharp-tongued and shrewd. At this time, not only was he not afraid, he even dared to get close to her.
Shen Xiaoxiao looked at him with a rare smile. As she put down the two children, she pretended to say unintentionally, “If you want to call the police or inform those people, you have to have this fate.”
After Shen Xiaoxiao finished her story, she looked at the sandbag that was used for exercise hanging by the side and punched it. The sandbag had a hole in it, and Ai Wei’s big mouth did not close for a long time. How much force was needed to break through this sandbag? What kind of great aunt did he meet?
“That, that, speak properly, speak properly. Whatever you want me to do, I will cooperate. I promise to cooperate. Look at these two children of yours. You can’t kill people in front of the children, right? Oh right, is this… is this your child? Why are those people chasing you?”
Shen Xiaoxiao looked at this person. He wasn’t even safe yet, and he started to care if this was her child.
“You like to meddle in other people’s business?”
Shen Xiaoxiao tidied up Da Bao and Little Treasure. Her movements were skilled and gentle. In fact, with one look, Ai Wei knew that she should be the children’s mother. But why were the three of them being hunted down?
As an outstanding actor, there were too many scenes like this in TV dramas. So, when he encountered these scenes in real life, he didn’t feel surprised. Instead, he accepted them very quickly.
Shen Xiaoxiao watched as the two children leaned against each other and played by themselves. Her little jacket was placed at the side. The room was well-heated, so she was not afraid of catching a cold. After settling the children down, she had the mood to look around carefully.
The first thing she did was to remove all the phone lines and internet cables. Then, she looked at Ai Wei. Needless to say, this kid was very smart. He took out his phone from his trouser pocket and put it on the table with both hands. Shen Xiaoxiao glanced at him, and she took the phone and put it into her pocket without any hesitation.
Then, she turned around and entered the kitchen, as if she was not afraid that her two children would be attacked by Ai Wei.
Ai Wei wanted to use this child as a threat, but just as he moved his feet a little, a fruit knife shot over and directly stabbed into his slippers. If it were not for his toes shrinking fast… He would definitely have been hit today.
Of course, he was so scared that he broke out in a cold sweat. This woman, this woman’s back was clearly facing him. How did she do it?
“If you keep moving, the place I’m going to shoot next time won’t be there.”
Ai Wei swallowed his saliva. He felt like he was in deep trouble.. Why did he have to run into this mess? If he had known, he wouldn’t have said anything and let those people take this woman away.
