Chapter 173: Chapter 173: Suddenly, a hand stretched out from the darkness and grabbed her arm.

Ji Wei couldn’t figure it out, but the only thing she was certain of was that she had to find a way to escape!

She quickly walked to the window and lifted the curtain to look outside.

This was the second floor, and the window wasn’t very high off the ground. If she used tools to jump down, it wouldn’t be too difficult. But it seemed Nan Huiru had anticipated her move—two bodyguards were already stationed beneath the window.

Ji Wei stood at the window for a few seconds before the bodyguards noticed her.

She quickly stepped back, hiding her body behind the curtain.

Escape through the window was now impossible. What other method could she use to get out?

She bit her finger, furrowing her brows as she thought.

Suddenly, Ji Wei noticed the balcony of the bedroom on the other side. Her eyes lit up instantly.

Ji Wei walked quickly to the balcony. Beneath it was a vast swimming pool, and the bodyguards weren’t stationed directly below but were pacing back and forth along the poolside a short distance away.
