"Yes, it's the same every year!" Ning An said, "Go and take a bath. After you finish, mommy will tell you a story."

"Okay." Little Candy agreed in a sweet voice, and happily went back to the house.

Sister-in-law Wu went home, and there were only mother and daughter on Christmas Eve.

Ning An decorates the Christmas tree alone, and every year she puts gifts in Christmas stockings, and she can receive small candies when she wakes up early in the morning.

Sometimes it’s a storybook, sometimes it’s a toy, sometimes it’s a little girl’s favorite hairpin…

The snow outside has stopped, and the sky and the earth are a vast expanse of white.

After the decoration was completed, Ning An tidied the house. She opened the refrigerator and found that there were no eggs and there were not many ingredients in the refrigerator.

"Little Candy, you can go to bed later, and mommy will go to the convenience store to buy some eggs and milk."

"I know!" Little Candy responded.

Ning An is very relieved about Little Candy. She is now five years old and is not as difficult to take care of as she was when she was a child.

Ning An put on his bag, changed his shoes, and took an umbrella.

It was very windy outside, but it was not snowing. Ning An wrapped herself in a scarf and a mask and walked on the road in the community against the strong wind.

There was thick snow everywhere, and the snow boots made a "squeaking" sound when stepping on it, and the oncoming wind was like a knife, cutting people's faces one after another.

Ning'an's hair was blown by the wind and it was very cold. Even wearing a scarf didn't help.

It was not far from the community to the convenience store, but because the road was not easy to walk, she walked very slowly for fear of slipping.

There was no one on the road on Christmas Eve, only the street lights were on as usual, and I couldn't see anyone even for a long distance.

On such an important holiday, everyone is reunited at home.

Ning'an just wanted to buy the ingredients as soon as possible so that he could make a hearty breakfast for Little Candy tomorrow.

She was thinking about what to buy in her mind, and didn't notice the black figure following behind her.

It was quiet all around, except for her footsteps and the whistling of the wind.

There was not a single person in sight in the whole street.

Turning a corner, Ning An entered a quieter and darker road. She knew that there was a convenience store not far ahead.

Suddenly, Heiye behind him quickened his pace and rushed up, grabbed her hand, and skillfully snatched the bag from her hand!

Ning An reacted quickly, and before the man could snatch the bag away, she came to her senses, turned her head, her pupils dilated, and held the bag firmly.

"Put down the bag!" the thief threatened.

Ning An held on and refused to let go.

This man was tall and powerful, and he looked like a habitual thief based on his tactics. He was wearing a black mask and was dragging Ning An's bag.

"I'm calling for help! Help!"

The thief took out a dagger!

The dagger shone with a white cold light.

He quickly dropped the dagger on Ning An's neck: "I'm warning you, let go!"

Ning An didn't dare to move, the knife was not meant to scare people, she could feel the coolness.

But her bag cannot be given to this person. It contains cash, bank cards, and many important documents...

"Let go!" The man brought the dagger closer, his eyes full of coldness and ferocity.

"If you want money, I'll give it to you, but you can't take my bag away," Ning An said.

"Stop talking nonsense! Let me go!"

Ning An's heart was beating "thumping" and "thumping" non-stop, and he couldn't calm down at all. His whole body was filled with tension, and his hands were even shaking uncontrollably.

She couldn't give him everything.

Ning An was very familiar with this place, so she half-nudging and half-said: "You move the knife away, and I'll give you the bag."
