—Inside a secret underground chamber.
Su Xiaoning, who had fainted, quickly regained consciousness. She opened her eyes groggily and saw Gu's father holding her wrist with a sharp dagger in his hand, about to cut her.
"Get out of my way!"
Su Xiaoning screamed and instantly woke up. She kicked Gu's father away and rolled to a corner, hugging her shoulders and staring at him defensively.
Father Gu sneered and approached Su Xiaoning step by step with the dagger in his hand. "Do you think you can dodge? If you obediently let me take your blood, I might let you die a little more quickly."
