Hua Jinyue leaned forward, her long pink hair falling to cover half of her face. The one eye that was revealed gleamed in the shadows with pure, cold, inhuman murderous intent.
Her other hand gently stroked Su Xinghui's cheek, which was twisted in pain. Her movements were as gentle as if she were caressing a lover, but the words she spoke were as if she was falling into an icy cave:
"Jinyue originally wanted to play slowly..." Her voice was as soft as a whisper, and the butterfly knife had mysteriously returned to her hand at some point.
The cold tip of the knife, like a lover's fingertips, gently scratched Su Xinghui's tear-stained and blood-stained cheek, leaving a cold wet mark.
"...destroy everything you care about most, one by one, and watch you collapse bit by bit...but brother said," her voice paused, and a very brief trace of confusion flashed in her eyes, which was then replaced by deeper madness.
"...Killing people is not good...it will dirty your hands...so, Jinyue will only let you..."
The tip of the knife slowly moved down, with unquestionable force, firmly pressing against Su Xinghui's fragile throat, which was heaving violently with fear.
"Life is worse than death." He spoke each word with such emphasis, as if it was the verdict of the god of death.
Su Xinghui closed her eyes in despair, waiting for the final judgment.
"Stop! Hua Jinyue!"
A deep and penetrating roar exploded at the door like thunder.
Hua Jinyue paused slightly with the tip of the knife against Su Xinghui's throat, but she didn't even look back. Her eyes were still fixed on Su Xinghui's desperate face, and her murderous intent had not diminished in the slightest.
At the door, Chao Youye's figure stood like a javelin.
He had obviously rushed there, and was even wearing the dark patterned black suit he wore to the dinner.
Only the sleeve of his left arm was roughly torn open, revealing the blood-soaked bandage underneath. The bright red blood spread across a large dark area on his dark suit.
His face was pale, with fine beads of cold sweat on his forehead, and it was obvious that he was seriously injured, but his deep eyes were burning with cold anger, and his aura was powerful, fixed on Hua Jinyue on the stairs.
"Hua Jinyue! Let her go! This is the Su family! Not a place for you to act wildly!" Chao Youye shouted sternly, his voice filled with unquestionable majesty, trying to suppress this out-of-control madman with his momentum.
As he spoke, he endured the severe pain in his left arm and walked quickly towards the stairs.
Hua Jinyue finally turned her head slowly, extremely slowly.
There was no warmth in her eyes when she looked at Chao Youye.
There was no fluctuation of any "acquaintances", only a pure, cold indifference as if looking at a stone on the roadside, and a strong impatience and violence for having the "game" forcibly interrupted.
That look made Chao Youye, who had seen many ups and downs, feel a sudden chill in his heart.
"Chao, You, Ye." Hua Jinyue's voice was flat, like she was reading a dead person's name. "Go away."
"Calm down!" Chao Youye had already stepped onto the stairs and tried to get closer.
"Su Xinghui's crime doesn't deserve the death penalty! Hand her over to the police! Or let me handle it! You'll only make things worse! Your brother doesn't want you to..."
"Shut up!" Hua Jinyue screamed fiercely! Her voice was filled with the fury of being referred to as "brother" and the extreme rage of having her territory invaded!
"Who do you think you are?! Are you worthy enough to mention my brother?!"
Before he finished speaking!
Hua Jinyue moved, and her wrist holding the butterfly knife shook violently at a speed that was difficult to see with the naked eye.
"call out--!"
The deadly butterfly knife was no longer a prop to scare people, but turned into a truly deadly silver thread, tearing through the air and shooting straight towards Youye's throat with a sharp sound.
Fast! Accurate! Ruthless! Without a single hesitation! He was completely determined to take someone's life!
Chao Youye's pupils suddenly shrank. In this life-or-death situation, he displayed incredible reflexes. He twisted his severely injured body to the right to dodge.
“Swish!”
The sharp blade almost scratched his left carotid artery, and the cold touch made the hairs on the back of his neck stand on end.
The blade cut through the expensive collar of his suit, even leaving a thin line of blood on the side of his neck, and finally with a "snap" sound, it was deeply nailed into the wall behind him.
Chao Youye was still in shock, and a chill instantly ran through his body.
She had gone completely crazy! She was completely different from the girl who had fed him strawberry cake.
This lunatic! She really dares! And she has no scruples!
Just when he was distracted by this fatal blow, Hua Jinyue pounced down the stairs like a ghost.
Her target was not Chao Youye at all, but Su Xinghui who was still lying limp on the ground.
The five fingers of her left hand formed into claws, and with a fierce gust of wind, she grabbed Su Xinghui's head fiercely.
This claw is enough to crush the skull!
"Dip the moon!"
A weak voice that seemed to disappear at any moment, yet extremely familiar, suddenly rang out at the door, like an ice cube thrown into boiling water.
This voice was like an invisible shackle, instantly restraining all of Hua Jinyue's violent actions.
Her sharp claws that were grabbing Su Xinghui's head suddenly froze in mid-air, and her whole body seemed to be paused, and her violent aura solidified in an instant.
Hua Jinyue's whole body trembled violently, and he turned around at a speed that almost broke his neck.
At the door, Ye Qingliu leaned weakly against the door frame. His face was pale and almost transparent, like fragile porcelain, without a trace of blood.
He was still wearing a blue and white striped hospital gown. The thick bandage on his chest had been completely soaked with the blood that kept seeping out, leaving a large, glaring crimson stain.
A loose black suit jacket casually draped over his shoulders made his figure look even thinner and more shaky.
