A woman was bound hand and foot on the floor, her hair disheveled and covered in blood.
Despite having mentally prepared herself countless times, Gu Baiwei was still terrified and turned pale when she suddenly saw this scene.
The woman's face was completely obscured by her long hair, making it impossible to see her features.
Sensing the light coming from them, the woman seemed startled, wriggling frantically as she looked up in terror.
The moment she met those familiar eyes, a look of surprise appeared on Gu Baiwei's face. She never expected to see Su Peipei here.
She gestured for Su Peipei to be quiet, glanced cautiously downstairs to make sure Qi Yu hadn't come out yet, then immediately closed the door and tiptoed into the room.
Seeing her like this, Su Peipei shook her head frantically in terror, and soon a pool of foul-smelling, yellowish-brown liquid appeared beneath her.
Her mouth was tightly sealed with black tape, preventing her from making a sound. Her hands and feet were bound with hemp rope in an extremely awkward position, wriggling desperately like an insect, trying to get away from Gu Baiwei.
Seeing her like this, Gu Baiwei felt a pang of pity. She squatted down in front of Su Peipei and said softly, "Don't worry, I'm not with him."
However, Su Peipei clearly did not believe it. Her eyes were filled with fear and anger as she stared at Gu Baiwei, and she desperately moved her body backward.
Gu Baiwei was speechless, so she decided to stop arguing with her: "Whether you believe it or not, I'm really not on his side. If you want to live, be quiet and don't make a sound."
Su Peipei seemed startled by her, hesitated for a moment, and nodded frantically.
Gu Baiwei scanned her surroundings and finally spotted a blood-stained dagger on the table next to her.
She walked over, gripped the dagger in her hand, and approached Su Peipei, whose eyes instantly filled with terror.
Seeing her like this, Gu Baiwei couldn't help but sigh: "If I wanted to kill you, I could stab you to death right now. There's no need to let you go."
Seemingly agreeing with Gu Baiwei's statement, Su Peipei quietly allowed Gu Baiwei to help her untie the restraints on her body.
"After I release you, hide and wait quietly for your chance to leave. Don't make a sound."
Gu Baiwei gave her instructions with concern, while quickly cutting the ropes binding Su Peipei.
Unexpectedly, as soon as Su Peipei regained her freedom, she suddenly got up, pushed Gu Baiwei to the ground, and ran outside without a care.
He ran while shouting, "Help! Help! Someone is trying to kill me!"
Gu Baiwei's heart skipped a beat. What an idiot!
Sure enough, within two minutes Su Peipei darted back to her room in terror, scurried under the table, and curled up into a ball, trembling with fear.
Gu Baiwei immediately had a bad feeling. She looked up as if she had noticed something and saw Qi Yu standing at the door with a gloomy expression, holding an exquisite gift box in one hand and a glass of milk in the other.
His pale, handsome face looked particularly sinister in the flickering light from outside.
If the situation hadn't prevented it, Gu Baiwei would have almost screamed on the spot. This was just too terrifying; it was even scarier than the ghost movies in TV dramas.
Qi Yu's dark eyes shifted from Su Peipei to Gu Baiwei, then she stiffly forced a smile: "Sister, what are you doing?"
Before Gu Baiwei could answer, Su Peipei, hiding under the table, pointed at Gu Baiwei in terror and screamed, "I didn't try to run away! It was her, it was her who forced me to let go! Don't kill me! Don't kill me..."
The atmosphere froze instantly. Gu Baiwei felt a chill run down her spine as Qi Yu stared at her with those sinister eyes. She could only grit her teeth and say, "Qi Yu, you promised me you wouldn't do anything wrong again."
Qi Yu's lips curled into a cold smile: "Sister, you promised me you'd be with me forever, but you abandoned me..."
"She betrayed you, it has nothing to do with me. Kill her, kill her and let me go, okay?"
Su Peipei's voice, filled with a mixture of fear and excitement, rang in my ears. Her voice was exceptionally sharp, sounding both shrill and menacing.
"Shut up!"
Qi Yu spoke coldly, her dark, unbright eyes fixed on Gu Baiwei, as if waiting for her answer.
Gu Baiwei had no recollection of when she had said those words, but facing Qi Yu's increasingly cold eyes, she could only steel herself and say, "I was wrong before. How about you let her go, and I'll stay here with you?"
Qi Yu was silent for a moment, then gently shook her head: "This woman hurt my sister, I can't let her get away with it."
Hiding under the table, Su Peipei's face turned deathly pale instantly. Sure enough, this woman was in cahoots with this pervert. She had just pretended to let her go, but she must have been trying to provoke him so that he would kill her.
"I've already forgiven her, please let her go."
Gu Baiwei tried again to persuade Qi Yu, but Qi Yu's expression became even more gloomy.
Just when Gu Baiwei thought he wouldn't agree, Qi Yu stared at her for a long time before slowly nodding: "Okay, I'll trust you one last time, sister."
Gu Baiwei nodded without hesitation: "This time I will definitely keep my word."
Upon hearing this, Qi Yu's smile grew even more sinister: "It's alright, after today, even if I wanted to back out, I wouldn't have the chance."
What does it mean that there's no chance to back out now?
Before Gu Baiwei could figure it out, Qi Yu had already walked up to her and handed her the milk in her hand: "Sweetie, if I finish this, we can be together forever."
Looking at his smile, Gu Baiwei felt a chill run down her spine, as if she were prey being watched by a wild beast.
She forced a smile: "Okay, I'll drink it, you can let her go first."
Qi Yu didn't move when she heard this. She held her cup and looked at Gu Baiwei with a gentle smile: "I will let her go after you finish drinking, sister."
Gu Baiwei gritted her teeth and said, "Fine, I'll drink it."
She calmly took the cup from Qi Yu's hand, but she knew perfectly well that something had been added to the milk and it was absolutely not safe to drink.
But Qi Yu kept her eyes on her, so it was impossible for her to secretly pour it out.
Just then, out of the corner of her eye, she caught sight of two empty wine bottles on a table not far away.
"Qi Yu, what is that?"
Suddenly, Gu Baiwei pointed behind Qi Yu, and while Qi Yu turned her head, she quickly grabbed a wine bottle from the table and smashed it down on Qi Yu's head.
However, when Qi Yu was hit on the head, his body only swayed slightly, and bright red blood instantly flowed down his forehead, spreading from his temple to his chin.
However, he was not knocked unconscious. Instead, he calmly opened his eyes and looked at her tenderly: "Sister, you don't mean to kill me, do you? I'm so sad."
