Zheng Xin was actually hedging.
She was betting that Shi Man did not dare to really do anything to her, but when she met those cold eyes, she still could not help but feel afraid.
She had only seen such eyes on the faces of the mercenary seniors who killed people like flies.
But how was this possible?
Shi Man was just a spoiled young lady. Other than complementing the beauty of the protagonist, she was useless in the book.
Although she was only reading a Doujin novel, a Doujin novel was created on the basis of the original book’s settings. The character setup should be about the same. Shi Man should not have such a pair of eyes that made her fearful.
The blade in front of her neck came an inch closer and cut into her flesh again. The pain attacked her again, and Zheng Xin knew fear.
Shi Man’s hand holding the knife was very stable. She cut into her flesh inch by inch, but it would not hurt her life. It would only make her feel that her flesh was being cut bit by bit, but she could not even speak.
“Let go of me.” Zheng Xin tried her best to crane her neck back, but there was a wall behind her. She had been forced to the point of no return.
The blade was still ruthlessly cutting into her flesh. Zheng Xin felt that even breathing was gradually becoming difficult. The blood in her chest was sticky, and the smell of blood gradually dissipated in the air. The pain in her body made her grimace in terror.
“Don’t…” Zheng Xin could barely squeeze out this word in a hoarse voice. Her vision was already black from the pain.
The aura of death was still slowly approaching. She pushed Shi Man weakly with both hands, her heart beating so fast that she could not breathe. “Please, don’t kill me…”
Shi Man sneered and stopped what she was doing. She teased her playfully, “Did I hear wrongly? Does the female lead beg for mercy?”
Zheng Xin’s face turned red. She had always thought that she was fearless, but when she was really on the verge of death, she could not help but become afraid.
Seeing that Shi Man had no intention of retracting the knife in her hand, Zheng Xin could not care less about her pride and hurriedly apologized to her.
In order to survive, the arrogant girl was willing to bow down to Shi Man. However, Shi Man knew that she had no intention of really being obedient. This was just a temporary method to make Shi Man lower her guard.
Shi Man did not have the patience to listen to Zheng Xin’s nonsense. She pulled out the knife in her hand and grabbed Zheng Xin’s hair, forcing her to raise her head in a sorry state. “I want to know who gave you the drugs.”
A trace of hesitation flashed across Zheng Xin’s eyes, but this hesitation quickly disappeared in Shi Man’s cold gaze. Just as she was about to speak, the door to the rooftop was suddenly kicked open from the outside.
Su Tang ran in anxiously to block the view of the people behind her. She hurriedly said, “Manman, bad news. Chief Zheng is here with the police!”
Shi Man frowned and put away the dagger. She retracted her hand that was holding Zheng Xin’s hair and said coldly, “Who called the police?”
Tang Zhe lowered his voice and reminded her, “The guests in the lobby are already waking up one after another. One of them must have called the police.”
As soon as she finished speaking, a few sirens warning ambulances stopped downstairs of the hotel at the same time. When Shi Man heard this sound, her cold face turned cold again.
Zheng Xin finally regained her freedom as she wished. At this moment, she couldn’t care less about the pain of her wound. She laughed and mocked Shi Man. “I said that I’m the female lead. My protagonist halo has finally taken effect! The police are here. 1 want to tell the police everything about you threatening me with a knife!”
“Explain the drugs in your hand first.” Shi Man looked away indifferently and heard the messy footsteps at the rooftop door. Her heart sank slightly.
With Madam Zheng’s help, Shen Xian staggered over. Chief Zheng stood at the front with a cold expression, staring straight at his daughter, who was supposed to be locked in the room. “How did you come out?”
The moment he received Shen Xian’s call, Chief Zheng’s first reaction was disbelief. He quickly rushed to the door of Zheng Xin’s room. There were no signs of the door being pried open, but at this moment, she was really standing on the rooftop of the hotel. Her chest was covered in blood, and she was holding it in her hand…
When Chief Zheng saw the thing clearly, his pupils suddenly dilated. He pointed at her nose angrily and scolded, “Unfilial daughter! Where did you get this?”
Zheng Xin survived and thought that her protagonist halo had worked. She looked at the bag that had appeared in her hand again and mocked unscrupulously, “Why should I tell you?”
“Because I’m your father and I’m a police officer for the people!” Chief Zheng glared at her. Other than the anger that was about to explode, there was also an imperceptible begging in his eyes.
However, Zheng Xin did not take him seriously at all and continued to confront him unrepentantly.
“Xinxin.” Madam Zheng still had a trace of hope, thinking that as long as she treated her well, she could slowly return to normal.
However, Chief Zheng no longer had any hope. Touching drugs was a crime. He lowered his head and waved tiredly behind him. Two narcotics police officers passed by him on both sides and arrested Zheng Xin..
