Ruan Qi and Bai Li, who were chatting, both jumped in surprise.
Ruan Qi quickly sat up from the bed, ready to go down and take a look when the sound of a window being pulled open came from the balcony.
It's the end of August, the hottest time of summer, so the room only had screen windows. But screens are normally locked, it shouldn't be possible to open them.
Unless... it's a thief.
Ruan Qi immediately became alert. She quietly got out of bed, reached into the gap in her bedside table, and fished out a baseball bat, holding it in her hand as she stepped towards the balcony.
The thief who had pried open the window had already pulled the screen completely open, and through the curtain, she could vaguely see the figure of someone climbing in.
Ruan Qi's little eyebrows couldn't help but twist together.
This little thief is too bold.
With the bedroom light still on, he dares to swagger in and pick locks.
Simply not taking her seriously!
