Doting on his wife: Husband, beg for a kiss

Chapter 212 Am I Scarier Than Criminals?

She quickly took out a kitchen knife from the knife holder, turned around and walked towards the entrance.

Due to the power outage, the images of people outside the door could not be displayed on the monitor.

She stood in front of the door, trying to peek at the people outside the door through the cat's eyes, but it was pitch black and she couldn't see anything clearly.

Knock knock knock.The sudden knock on the door continued.

Zhuang Yiman only felt her heart beating faster, she held the kitchen knife tightly, and after taking a few deep breaths, she mustered up the courage to ask the person outside the door: "Who is it?"

The knock on the door finally stopped, and then a deep and magnetic voice came to her ears through the heavy door: "Yiman, it's me."

When hearing the familiar voice, Zhuang Yiman felt a sense of relief, and at this moment the tense nerves finally relaxed slowly.

She unlocked the door and turned the handle to open it.

She pointed the flashlight at Xiao Jinxuan.

The sudden light made Xiao Jinxuan close his eyes subconsciously, and after a few seconds of pause, he opened his eyelids little by little, adapting to the light.

Zhuang Yiman adjusted the direction of the flashlight to avoid the light from shining directly into his eyes.

Only then did Xiao Jinxuan fully open his eyelids, but his attention was suddenly startled by the kitchen knife held in Zhuang Yiman's right hand.

Under the illumination of the flashlight, the sharp kitchen knife seemed to have a compelling edge.

He asked, "What are you doing with a kitchen knife at night?"

"I thought it was an outlaw, so just in case." After finishing speaking, she turned around and walked back into the room.

Xiao Jinxuan couldn't help laughing, he followed her into the house, and did not forget to lock the door after closing it.

Before he could speak, Zhuang Yiman asked again, "What are you doing here so late at night?"

"There will be thunderstorms tonight, and I'm worried that you will be alone, so I'll come and see you."

Zhuang Yiman glanced sideways at Xiao Jinxuan who was beside him. There was a light smile on his handsome face, and those delicate phoenix eyes were as warm as jade, flowing with reassuring power.

Looking away, she asked, "Why don't you make a phone call?"

"The phone is dead."

Zhuang Yiman walked into the kitchen and put the kitchen knife back into the knife holder.

As soon as he turned around, he fell into Xiao Jinxuan's arms unexpectedly.

Xiao Jinxuan held her in his arms gently, and said in a low voice: "Is the community out of power? When I came here just now, the whole community was dark. I have been ringing the doorbell at your door for so long, and I am very worried that something will happen to you gone."

Zhuang Yiman's side face was pressed against Xiao Jinxuan's chest, and he could feel his steady and strong heartbeat through the shirt.

She replied helplessly: "When I came back in the afternoon, I heard from the aunts in the community that there were two burglaries in the community this month, both of which targeted women living alone. Therefore, I thought you were a criminal and didn't open the door for you. "

Xiao Jinxuan finally understood at this moment why Zhuang Yiman was clearly at home, but it took him a long time to come to open the door for him.

He said in a worried tone: "That's quite dangerous. The community is old and the security system is probably not perfect."

After a pause, he continued, "Why don't you move back in?"

"No."

Xiao Jinxuan asked her amusedly: "Am I scarier than criminals? So much so that you would rather take the risk of being targeted than live with me."

Zhuang Yiman heard the childish complaint in his tone, and couldn't laugh or cry for a while.

She replied: "Well, it is indeed scarier than criminals."

Because criminals can only steal her belongings, but he... can easily steal her heart.
