Chapter 11: What's the Matter, Scared?
He had actually never heard of someone so unguarded, sharing their murderous thoughts with their intended victim!
"I was driven to this by you, if you'd agree to a divorce, that would be too good!!" Su Xingyue gritted her teeth, raised her chin defiantly, and said to him purposely.
She thought, surely no man would like to live with a woman who wanted to kill him every day!
But who knew...
"You can try!" A cold laugh sounded, as the man suddenly rose from the couch and strode toward her.
Su Xingyue was stunned, involuntarily stepping back two steps... but her wrist was grasped by his large hand.
"What are you trying to do..." she asked in panic, looking at him.
"Give you the opportunity to murder!" A glint flashed in his cold eyes...
Following that, his hand swung, and a dagger was placed in her hand.
It was the same one he had used to slice open her shoulder strap...
Su Xingyue looked at the dagger in her hand, shocked, hardly believing it.
Give her the opportunity to murder?
Was this man insane?
...
While she was still stunned, he had already lifted his hand and taken off his black overcoat, tossing it carelessly aside.
Long fingers gently flicked, undoing two buttons on his shirt.
She was perplexed, looking at the man in front of her, whose unfathomable depth put her under great pressure.
Because, she couldn't see through him at all...
What on earth did he want...
Just then, he suddenly raised his hand, gripping the hand that held the dagger...
Following that, he placed the tip of the knife against his own body.
Su Xingyue gasped...
Could he be serious?
He held her hand, moving it to his chest.
Until, the tip of the knife was positioned over his heart.
"Do it!" His calm, low voice rang out. "Kill me, and you will be free!"
"..." Su Xingyue was frozen, scarcely able to believe her ears.
He was asking her to do it?
To kill him?
He really was mad!
Standing there rigid, Su Xingyue's hand holding the dagger began to go numb; she didn't even dare breathe, let alone make a move.
Although, she really did want to get a divorce...
But, their relationship hadn't reached a point where such extreme measures were needed to solve their problems!
Seeing her hesitation and failure to act, a trace of mockery appeared in his eyes...
"Didn't you say you wanted to do away with me, what's the matter, scared?" His ink-like eyes were full of scorn...
The person who had just confidently spoken about killing him, now trembled with fear.
Heh...
...
Observing the mockery in his eyes, Su Xingyue finally realized that she had been played!
He clearly knew that she was all talk and no action...
His gaze was too penetrating, as if it could easily see right through her thoughts.
This feeling of being completely seen through made her very uncomfortable.
Finally... She took a forceful step back, throwing the dagger from her hand, wanting nothing more to do with it!
"I won't fall for your tricks, I wouldn't be able to live if you died!" She bit her lip and said indignantly.
She had intended only to scare him, but the man in front of her was too crafty; she was no match for him!
Her small schemes must seem like kindergarten level in Nan Yuling's eyes!
"Forget about divorce!" His gaze swept over her, 'kindly' reminding her.
