Chapter 35: Meeting an Assassin at Night (1)
In the middle of the night, there was silence in the inner room, today Shangguan Rou only let Zi Juan, the big maid beside her, keep watch outside, and fell asleep in the inner room alone.

Outside the house, the breeze was blowing gently, and the bamboo in the yard made a rustling sound, which made the courtyard in the middle of the night a little bit alive and weird.

Since her rebirth, Shangguanrou has never slept soundly, any movement can wake her up, even in the middle of the night when no one is around, her subconscious mind remains alert.

There was a slight sound from the window of the room, small and slight, but it really penetrated into Shangguan Rou's ears.Shangguanrou's eyes moved, but she didn't open them. She knew that opening her eyes was not a good choice now, and she might be murdered to silence her.

She didn't know why someone came to her house in the middle of the night, but she knew that the person who came was not kind, Shangguan Rou snorted in her heart, probably some brainless person invited someone to kill her.

The hand under the quilt moved forward slightly, and took out the dagger hidden under the pillow.The experience of the previous life told her that no one in this world can be relied on except herself, so after her rebirth, there was a dagger under her pillow, which gave her a sense of security, and she could only rest on this dagger. , she was able to fall asleep.

Shangguanrou remembered that when she asked Magpie to find a dagger, Magpie showed a look of shock on her face. She knew, she didn't understand why a rich lady wanted a dagger, and she wouldn't believe herself if she was in the previous life It will end up like this, and it will be so guarded against anyone and anything.

Shangguanrou could feel someone walking slowly towards the bed, with light and soundless footsteps, just like the cat she raised in her previous life, a cold light shone on Shangguanrou's eyes, she guessed that the person should be holding a dagger in his hand It seems that this person is very difficult to deal with, maybe she has to fight to the death.

Shangguanrou smiled helplessly in her heart, could it be that the purpose of her rebirth was to be killed by this person, then she might as well be reincarnated happily, she didn't want to die, she wanted to live, she wanted to live, to take revenge, to live with her aunt To live a good life, I want to live and trample the people of the Shangguan Mansion under my feet!
The hand holding the dagger tightly clenched under the quilt, she will not give up, as long as she can preemptively avoid this person's move, and then shout for help, it is very likely that she will be saved. Killing a person and losing her own life, as long as he is not a dead man, she has a glimmer of hope.

In the dark night, that person was getting closer and closer to Shangguanrou. Suddenly, a gust of wind hit Shangguanrou, a bloody hand tightly clutched Shangguanrou's neck, and Shangguanrou's hand holding the dagger stayed on the ground. In mid-air, the two looked at each other, and they were glued to each other, neither of them would take a step back.

A ray of moonlight came through the window, and Shangguanrou was able to observe the man in black carefully. The man in black didn't speak, but it could be seen from the figure and other aspects that it was a man.

The man in black wore a face scarf, revealing only a pair of obsidian-like eyes. Shangguan Rou had never seen such cold and deep eyes, like a pair of fine black gemstones, although with a hint of seductive brilliance, but It was so deep and cold that it made people feel chills, and looking into those eyes, it seemed that they would be sucked into them at any time, unable to extricate themselves.

A trace of surprise flashed in the eyes of the man in the night. He didn't expect this woman to be so bold. If ordinary women were hijacked, they would have started crying long ago, and their eyes were full of fear, but the woman in front of him was so different. Not only did she He dared to look directly at himself, and even dared to fight back with a dagger. If he hadn't maintained a high degree of vigilance and responded in time, I am afraid that the person who holds the initiative now is not him, but this seemingly weak woman in front of him .
