Thud!
The balcony suddenly emitted the sound of a hard object striking the window.
The sound wasn't loud, but in the quiet bedroom, it was somewhat jarring.
Ruan Qi immediately sat up from the bed, but before she could get up, there was another 'thud' from the balcony.
This time, Ruan Qi heard clearly that the sound must be someone throwing pebbles at the window.
It was already past ten o'clock at night, and security at Yu Garden was tight. It was unlikely for a thief to enter, and among the few households in the King's Building Area, none had children. So, the person throwing pebbles at the window shouldn't be a child.
Now, only one possibility remained.
To confirm her suspicion, Ruan Qi quickly jumped out of bed and rushed to the window like a gust of wind.
She opened the window in one swift motion—
In the inky night, a tall figure stood silently under the dim yellow streetlight.
