Behind her, Rong Shang reappeared. This time, her figure was like a ghost. In less than a second, she had arrived in front of Tang Xin, scaring her out of her wits.
"You..." Tang Xin's face turned deathly pale as she frowned at the woman before her. "How could you..."
Why does she appear and disappear without a trace? Is she a ghost?
There was no response. What fell on Tang Xin's face was the woman's black shadow. As the shadow swayed, Rong Shang moved a little closer in her line of sight.
At a distance of less than half a meter, Tang Xin watched as the other person casually parted their red lips and chuckled. A chill ran down her spine; she suddenly smelled the scent of death.
The more Tang Xin knew that her fate wouldn't be good, the calmer she became.
Suddenly, she grabbed the dagger from the ground and raised it again, but this time, the sharp tip of the dagger was not aimed at Rong Shang, but at Tang Xin herself.
In that instant, Rong Shang raised an eyebrow slightly, a hint of interest appearing in her shimmering eyes.
"What, thinking of committing suicide?"
"Chi Yue, do you think the police will trace it back to you if I die?" Tang Xin slowly raised the corners of her mouth and gave a faint laugh. The hand holding the dagger moved, and the tip of the knife immediately cut a small gash on her neck.
Drops of blood oozed out, falling into Rong Chang's eyes, which inexplicably excited her.
"Tang Xin, you can give it a try."
Rong Shang hadn't expected that this was her plan.
At this moment, Tang Xin saw her calm and composed demeanor and thought she was saying it on purpose.
"Ha, you think I wouldn't dare?" He tightened his grip again, but didn't dare to cut too deeply.
Over the past few years, she has wanted to die, but she is also afraid of dying.
"Chi Yue, if I die, you won't be able to escape responsibility."
Regardless of whether she is the murderer or not, she will be linked to this murder case from now on.
That's how society is these days. Nobody cares about the truth of the matter; all they care about is the public opinion surrounding it and the unknown secrets that might be hidden behind it.
The current Chi Yue is not the same as before; she is both Madam Rong and the younger sister of Chi Xuan, a popular star in the entertainment industry.
Either of these identities would be enough to thrust her into the public eye and subject her to public criticism.
And this is Tang Xin's main objective.
But her problem is that she is fundamentally afraid to do it to herself.
Who is Rong Shang? Since Tang Xin spoke so confidently, she simply stepped forward and grabbed the knife handle.
Startled, Tang Xin struggled, "What are you doing?"
"Don't you want to die?" Rong Shang smiled coldly. "Then I'll help you."
She gripped the knife handle and pressed down hard on Tang Xin's hand.
With a hiss, Tang Xin felt a sharp pain as the cut on her neck deepened, and more and more blood stained the tip of the knife.
"Let go! Let go!"
Tang Xin seemed to be flustered as well. The woman's figure was reflected in her pupils, so crazy that it made Tang Xin tremble.
She thought, she thought she would die at Rong Shang's hands.
Fortunately, Rong Xun's voice suddenly came from the deck ahead. Rong Shang's eyes flashed, and her grip on the dagger loosened slightly.
Tang Xin breathed a sigh of relief as the knife tip moved a few inches away from her neck.
"Tsk."
Looking at her like this, Rong Chang felt extremely contemptuous.
"If you don't have the guts to commit suicide, don't try to take up a knife like others."
With a clang, the dagger fell onto the beach.
As Rong Xun descended from the deck behind her, Rong Shang turned and waved to him.
