The way Zhao Yu spoke, frightened Yu Chu Xue, her struggles began much more intensifying.
The back of her head was already pressed against the chair, and she constantly tried to shrink back.
“Umm umm umm—!” Her pitch rose, seemingly wanting to say something.
Just as he was about to make a move, Zhao Yu stopped, saying, “Since I’m already here, there’s no rush. 1’11 make sure you understand why you’re dying…”
Zhao Yu pulled over a chair and sat down.
“You are quite ruthless!”
“I risked my own life, strategized and used the Su family to get ten million from the Huang family as a price on my head…”
“You casually tossed a bracelet, take away my money. Did you consider the consequences at the time?!”
The cold glint in Zhao Yu’s eyes grew even sharper, simply killing Yu Chu Xue was letting her off too easily.
“Money is my life. If you take my money, 1’11 take your life. Is a fair trade?”
“Umm umm umm—!”
Zhao Yu reached out and wiped away the tears on Yu Chu Xue’s face “1 don’t like how you look now…”
“Where’s that disdain you used to show?”
“The way you looked at me, full of contempt. I want to see it again!”
“Woo woo—!”
Yu Chu Xue couldn’t hold back anymore. Tears streamed down her face, and her eyes were filled with fear and terror. Her body also began to tremble uncontrollably.
She was scared!
She regretted it!
She had never expected that Zhao Yu would be so insane.
As Zhao Yu explained, she gradually understood that what he did was quite normal.
The one who was abnormal was her!
It’s like when people see a madman; they usually steer clear because they fear the unpredictability, madman might suddenly strike them.
But she had done the opposite, directly provoking a man on the brink of death. Wasn’t she pushing him to kill her?
“Can you stop crying?!”
For a rare moment, Zhao Yu showed a hint of disgust, saying coldly, “You’ve ruined my good mood…”
“I want to see that look in your eyes, full of disdain, as if you’re looking at a clown!”
Yu Chu Xue had probably gone too far this morning. That disdain had infuriated Zhao Yu, and with his life hanging by a thread for a month, he came looking for her.
“How boring…”
Zhao Yu shook his head, seemingly disinterested. His gaze returned to the knives.
This small movement was enough to make Yu Chu Xue shiver all over again.
“Splash—!”
The sound of flowing water echoed.
Zhao Yu realized that Yu Chu Xue had wet herself from fear.
“Heh heh!”
“Aren’t you a high-class person? How can you do such a thing?”
His interest seemed renewed. Setting down the knife, he approached Yu Chu Xue, removing the gag from her mouth, and said, “Go on, say your last words…”
At this moment, Yu Chu Xue suddenly became calm.
Her pleas for mercy were suppressed.
She knew begging was futile. The only thing to do was to save herself.
“It’s fake!”
“The bracelet 1 dropped is fake! The real one is at home…”
“I don’t need compensation or your money…”
Yu Chu Xue quickly revealed the truth.
The real bracelet was worth eighteen million. How could she bear to drop it?
The one she dropped was taken from another girl who was trying to flatter her.
Zhao Yu’s immediately felt angry about it.
He rushed towards her, grasping her throat. His eyes reddened with fury, he shouted, “Are you playing game with me?!”
“Cough— I- was wrong- I don’t need your money…” Yu Chu Xue emphasized while struggling.
“Money…”
Zhao Yu hesitated momentarily, but his rage intensified. Holding her neck tightly, he yelled, “Do you think there’s still a chance for redemption?!” “I’ve tied you up here. Do I have any choices other than killing you?”
A feeling of suffocation overwhelmed her. Yu Chu Xue never realized how close she was to death.
“Yes,” she barely gasped out.
“Slap-”
Zhao Yu released her neck, but slapped her hard across the face.
“You won’t retaliate?”
He sneered, “Do you take me for a fool after all this?”
“Cough, cough—!”
Yu Chu Xue coughed a few times, taking deep breaths. No, I have a way. You won’t have to pay, and you won’t have to kill me. Everything can still be fixed…” she hurriedly said.
Zhao Yu shook his head, turning to adjust a video camera, coldly remarking, “So naive. From the moment 1 entered your house, there was no turning back…”
“But rest assured, your death won’t be unnoticed. In five minutes, you’ll become famous in Bing City, and so will the Yu family…”
Only now did Yu Chu Xue understand the purpose of Zhao Yu fiddling with the camera. She quickly said, “Leverage! As long as you have something over me, I won’t dare retaliate. Everything can still be fixed…”
Zhao Yu was trying to judge if she was merely stalling for time or attempting to deceive him.
At this critical juncture, Yu Chu Xue knew that the man before her was like a ticking time bomb, ready to explode at the slightest provocation..
