Chapter 222: Shangguan Xiu is Covered in Blood_1

The two bodyguards, after hearing the noise from the basement, decided to leave only one person to guard the area.

The other hurried towards the front of the villa to find their young master and report the incident.

"Shangguan Xiu..." An Xiaomian knocked on the door, calling out Shangguan Xiu's name. She found it extremely difficult because her throat was in severe pain from shouting too long the night before.

Now, even breathing and swallowing made her throat feel as though it was on fire.

However, after calling out several times and receiving no response from outside, she could no longer support herself and had to sit down, leaning against the wall and gasping for air.

...

After leaving the villa last night, Shangguan Xiu aimlessly wandered the streets with no particular destination in mind.

He was acting like a madman, venting his frustrations.

He couldn't bring himself to kill the woman who had betrayed him, An Xiaomian.
