Shen Jiayin's concern was that as the two of them exchanged words in hushed tones, dozens of seconds had already passed, inevitably arousing a series of suspicions from the other side.
Seeing the faces of the three people opposite gradually changing in the darkness, Leng Xianbiao shielded her, retreating step by step towards the gate post. At this critical moment, they could only be extra cautious to avoid suddenly provoking the other side, for if the gate guard did not arrive in time, both of them might lose their lives.
Despite all their calculations, just like the others, they didn't predict that suddenly, two figures would flash out from the doorway and head straight towards them. Jun Ye walked in front, and seeing a few people standing together for unknown reasons, he suspiciously called out, "Shen Jiayin?"
In the moment that immediately followed, Bai Lu, who was behind Jun Ye, let out a shrill scream as the gate sentry rushed out with a baton in hand.
