Bab 141: Chapter 144: Uncle, I'll Behave Myself 14_1

Baili Xia has no idea what's going through her chaotic mind at this moment.

She just felt lost and helpless, sitting on the ground for quite a while.

It was only after her consciousness slowly returned that she abruptly stood up, rushing towards the door to bolt it shut from the inside.

What in the world had she done wrong? Why had she come across such a terrifying individual?

However, she didn't turn off the light that night because she was genuinely scared.

She was afraid that the madman would barge in again, doing something even more terrifying to her.

The entire scene of him strangling her was replaying in her mind.

For the first time, she felt the lightheadedness and near suffocation due to the lack of oxygen.
