"Release Miss Gu."
The big-headed, burly figure stood at the doorway like a gatekeeper, firmly blocking the exit, displaying an imposing presence that seemed to hold off ten thousand men.
Shen Xuan merely glanced up at him, his voice indifferent, revealing no anger or displeasure: "Instead of worrying about others, you should worry about yourself first."
As soon as he finished speaking, Big Head heard a hissing sound in his ear, which sounded like a snake.
He looked down in horror and saw a snake as thick as a wrist that had appeared under his feet.
The snake was entirely black, covered with strangely shaped dark patterns. It had coiled itself around his ankle at some point, hissing and flicking its bright red tongue at him, posing a strong threat.
Big Head immediately froze; the thing he feared most in his life was snakes.
Shen Xuan smiled as he looked at him, seemingly in a very good mood, and reminded him, "Oh, right, I'm sorry, I forgot to tell you, this snake was raised on poisonous food and is highly venomous. You'd better be careful."
Big Head: "..." He was quite polite, but not much.
After Shen Xuan finished speaking, he continued to lead Gu Baiwei outside.
Gu Baiwei originally wanted to find a chance to break free, but now that she saw that everyone was under his control, she suddenly lost her confidence.
At that moment, she became even more certain that the person in front of her could not possibly be Shen Xuan.
Although Shen Xuan is unreliable, he would never kill someone without careful consideration. On the contrary, he is tactful and easy to get along with.
Ignoring her strange gaze, Shen Xuan led her slowly down the corridor, his slender, cold fingers tightly intertwined with hers.
They walked side by side, almost touching, so much so that she could clearly feel his unusually high body temperature.
It was like a block of ice, cold and lifeless, not at all like a living person.
Shen Xuan slowly led her into the private room next door.
The people in the private room were stunned for a moment when they saw the two of them.
The young man sitting in the middle frowned and looked over: "Who are you? Who let you in? This is our private room, get out right now."
As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly noticed Gu Baiwei, who was forced to interlock her fingers with Shen Xuan.
With a small, delicate face, a pointed chin, and a graceful, slender swan neck, even with just a simple bun hairstyle, she looks stunning and captivating thanks to her beautiful face.
The young man stared intently, his tone instantly softening into gentle tenderness: "Have we come to the right place? Meeting is fate, if you don't mind, we can sit together."
Shen Xuan's eyes turned to the young man with a deep gaze. The moment the young man met those cold eyes, he felt a chill run down his spine. Suddenly, something fell on his head with a soft thud.
The young man subconsciously reached up to scratch his hair, and then noticed that the expressions of the people around him had suddenly changed.
Suddenly his hand grabbed something, and it seemed to be alive.
His face turned pale, and he grabbed the wriggling object from his hand. He only glanced at it before all the color drained from his face.
What he was holding in his hand was a spider the size of a fist.
The spider was entirely black, but its eyes were a strangely red.
At this moment, those sinister and eerie eyes were staring intently at him like a wild beast eyeing its prey.
The young man immediately felt a chill run down his spine, screamed, and threw the spider to the ground.
Just as she shook off the creepy thing and hadn't even had a chance to breathe a sigh of relief, she heard Shen Xuan speak softly, "Sorry, I forgot to tell you, this spider will poison you if you touch it. Are you alright?"
It's alright? How could it be alright?
The young man's face darkened, and just as he was about to say something, his legs suddenly went weak, and his whole body convulsed as if out of control, causing him to fall to the ground and quickly lose consciousness.
Shen Xuan looked up at the various expressions on the faces of the people in the room and smiled, "This room is ours now. Would you all like to leave for a moment?"
He spoke in a very gentle tone, as if he were patiently discussing things with them, but...
Everyone looked at the man lying on the ground foaming at the mouth, and silently took a step back, saying in unison, "Y-yes, it's okay."
Everyone present was now looking at Shen Xuan as if he were a monster.
"Thank you very much."
He smiled and waved to everyone, then took Gu Baiwei's hand and sat down on the sofa next to them without giving her a chance to refuse.
The moment the door was closed again, the room fell into a deathly silence.
Shen Xuan frowned and kicked the corpse on the ground, his face full of disgust: "They didn't even bother to take their trash with them, how rude."
As he spoke, he looked at Gu Baiwei with a smile and said, "Don't worry, sister, I'll handle this little thing quickly."
The moment he finished speaking, he gently raised his hand and clapped three times in succession, and the rustling sound came from all directions again.
The next moment, countless snakes, insects, and rodents crawled in from the cracks and swarmed around the corpse.
Soon, those things began to crawl up the corpse, a dark mass that covered the entire body in the blink of an eye.
The crunching and chewing sounds echoed throughout the room, sending chills down one's spine.
Gu Baiwei witnessed this rather horrifying scene and felt a chill run down her spine.
Noticing her unusual behavior, Shen Xuan wrapped his arms around her waist and pulled her into his embrace, his tone gentler than ever before: "Sister, if you're scared, just close your eyes. Don't worry, I'm here for you."
He forcibly half-held her in his arms, and Gu Baiwei felt a chill run through her body. This man was simply a complete madman and a pervert.
As if hearing her thoughts, Shen Xuan extended a finger and gently lifted her chin, a chilling smile playing on his lips: "Sister, you still haven't recognized me? I'll be heartbroken."
Even if Gu Baiwei were slow to realize, she would have already figured out the true identity of the person in front of her.
Those unseeing eyes, those countless poisonous insects, and that unpredictable personality—who else could it be but Qi Yu?
But why did he turn into Shen Xuan's appearance?
Seemingly noticing her confusion, Qi Yu smiled and picked up the water glass on the table, gently tapping the rim of the glass twice with her slender, fair fingers, before handing it to her: "Sister, you'll know the answer after you drink this water."
Gu Baiwei hesitated for a moment, but still took the water glass.
She was now like a fish on a chopping board; even if she didn't want to drink it, Qi Yu had plenty of ways to make her drink it.
She took a deep breath, picked up the water glass, and drank it all in one gulp.
Soon, she felt dizzy and her eyelids were so heavy that she could hardly open them.
Holding her dizzy head, she managed to ask, "What...did you give me to drink?"
