Butler Wang had never seen Su Hua torment someone for so long before, and he couldn't help but shake his head.
This time, Su Hai had truly crossed the line with the young lady.
On top of that, since Young Master Lin Xuan wasn’t coming back for dinner, the young lady was in a bad mood. The combination of these two factors was like a double buff.
The fact that Su Hai was still alive was likely because Su Hua was keeping him to feed Aoli. He would be tortured before his death, forced to watch as Aoli tore him apart until he took his last breath.
Cruel, truly cruel!
Even Butler Wang couldn’t help but feel a twinge of sympathy for Su Hai.
Su Hua tapped Su Hai’s face with the blood-stained knife in her hand.
"My dear uncle, at least before you die, you’ll serve as a meal for Aoli. Consider it your last bit of usefulness," Su Hua said, her lips curling into a gentle smile.
"Su Hua," Su Hai pointed at her, his eyes filled with venom. "I curse you! May you never find love, may everyone you care about betray you, and may you live a life of loneliness and misery!"
Betrayal…
Su Hua seemed to recall some painful memory, her knuckles turning white as she gripped the knife.
But soon, her expression turned icy once more.
Everyone who had betrayed her was already dead…
As for loneliness, A Xuan would always be by her side. Even if A Xuan died, he would still stay with her…
Lin Xuan walked into the living room carrying a cake, a bouquet of roses, and a ring.
"Su Hua."
As soon as he entered, Lin Xuan saw Su Hua plunging the knife into Su Hai.
Hearing Lin Xuan’s voice, Su Hua froze, her hand stopping mid-motion.
She turned stiffly to look at the gentle young man in white casual clothes.
A Xuan was back.
And he had just witnessed her violent side. Would he be afraid of her now? Would he find her disgusting, or even despise her?
"Clang—" The knife in her hand fell to the floor.
"A Xuan," Su Hua whispered, her eyes red and her hands trembling, looking like a child caught doing something wrong.
"A Xuan, I’m sorry. If you think I’m terrifying, I’ll change. I won’t kill anyone again."
Everyone in the living room stared at Su Hua in stunned silence, their eyes filled with disbelief.
The ruthless, cold-blooded demoness had transformed into a soft, vulnerable girl in an instant.
Holy crap!
This was too surreal. Was this really their mistress?
Butler Wang’s palms were sweating.
He shared Su Hua’s fear, worried that Lin Xuan might not be able to accept this side of her.
Young Master Lin couldn’t revert to how he used to be—afraid of the young lady, always trying to escape her. If that happened, the young lady would surely go mad.
Su Hai wasn’t dead yet. Clutching his chest, he watched Su Hua’s panicked state with a glimmer of hope in his eyes.
Su Hua didn’t want this man to see her kill!
This meant that Su Hua had never revealed her true nature to him!
"Hahaha," Su Hai burst into laughter.
"Lin Xuan, did you see how terrifying this woman is? She’s a devil, a heartless monster! She enjoys torturing people, enjoys killing. Once she grows tired of you, you’ll end up just like me—dead and with no place to rest!"
"I’m Su Hua’s blood-related uncle, yet she showed no mercy, tormenting me to this state. You’re just an outsider. Do you think you’ll fare any better?"
"You better not fall for her. Run, as far away as you can!"
"Hahaha—"
Su Hai couldn’t stop laughing. At least before he died, he got to see Su Hua heartbroken and in pain because of her lover. It was worth it!
"Young Master Lin," Butler Wang quickly stepped forward to explain. "Although he’s the young lady’s uncle, he’s repeatedly tried to take her life for the sake of the Su Family’s wealth and power. The young lady’s treatment of him is well-deserved."
"Young Master Lin, you’re different. The young lady loves you. Even if she hurts herself, she would never harm you. The reason she’s tormenting Su Hai like this is because he sent people to attack you…"
"I know," Lin Xuan smiled.
He set down the items he was carrying and walked over to Su Hua.
Su Hua’s hands and feet were cold, and she kept her head down, too afraid to look at Lin Xuan. She dreaded seeing fear or disgust in his eyes.
Su Hua clenched her fists at her sides.
If A Xuan really was afraid of her, if he tried to escape from her like he used to, she would never let him go…
The tenderness he had shown her these past few days—how could he take it back?
If he dared to run this time, she would lock him up, forever and ever…
Darkness swirled in Su Hua’s heart, and her beautiful eyes slowly turned blood-red.
She desperately suppressed the urge rising within her.
Butler Wang noticed the trembling in Su Hua’s hands, and his heart sank.
Oh no, the young lady was about to have another episode!
There had been several times before when Lin Xuan’s actions had triggered her…
Lin Xuan sighed as he saw Su Hua’s unease. He picked up a tissue from the coffee table and gently wiped the blood from Su Hua’s face.
Su Hua looked at him in shock.
Why was he still so gentle with her? Wasn’t he afraid of her?
Was he just pretending?
Su Hua searched Lin Xuan’s face and eyes for any trace of pretense.
There was none!
His eyes were as tender as ever, without a hint of fear or disgust…
Lin Xuan wiped away all the blood from Su Hua’s face and body.
"Hua Bao, I know who you are. If you want to kill someone, go ahead. I won’t be afraid of you," Lin Xuan reassured her.
Su Hua stared at him blankly, the redness in her eyes slowly fading.
He wasn’t afraid of her… He said it himself, he wasn’t afraid of her…
Lin Xuan gently patted Su Hua’s head. "But this person’s blood is too dirty. You don’t need to do it yourself and dirty your hands."
Butler Wang let out a sigh of relief.
Thank goodness. Young Master Lin could accept the young lady as she was.
Su Hua bit her lip, her mind still replaying those words—A Xuan wasn’t afraid of her, he truly wasn’t afraid…
Lin Xuan led Su Hua to the sofa and helped her sit down.
"Stay here and be good. Leave him to me, okay?"
Lin Xuan turned around, and the tenderness in his eyes vanished, replaced by a cold, dark gaze.
He walked over to the blood-stained knife, picked it up, and crouched down in front of Su Hai.
"I know you were trying to drive a wedge between Hua Bao and me. Unfortunately, your plan failed."
"I’ll never be afraid of her. Never."
He could never be afraid of Su Hua for killing someone. After all, he had already witnessed it in his previous life.
He also knew that even if Su Hua killed everyone in the world, including herself, she would never harm him.
Often, Su Hua would threaten to turn him into a vegetable or make him a corpse to keep her company, but in reality, she would never do such a thing.
If she had, she wouldn’t have allowed him to marry Qin Ruoyao in their previous life.
