In the following days, Niu Xiaoli lived in constant anxiety, feeling terrified at the slightest disturbance at home. Especially when someone rang the doorbell, her face would turn pale, her heart racing, scared that the police might come looking for her.
Several days had passed since the incident, and no police had come to find her, which gradually put her mind at ease. It seemed that Niu Hui's matter had blown over.
Her mental burden suddenly lessened, and that constant feeling of anxiety slowly dissipated. Everything was turning for the better, and she no longer had to worry about Niu Hui's threats.

In the morning, Niu Xiaoli rubbed her sleepy eyes and went downstairs, hearing Yan Ruoxi on a phone call there. She didn't care at first, but as soon as she heard Xue Yirong's name, she immediately perked her ears to listen.
In her heart, she definitely did not want to see Lin Runjie again, nor did she want Lin Runjie to have the chance to meet Su Liuying at the Lu family.
