Xu Lingling felt that the aromatherapy smell in the car today was especially nice, and she couldn’t help but fall asleep.
Xu Lingling had no idea how long she had slept. Just as she was having a sweet dream, she was suddenly slapped hard across the face.
Smack!
Xu Lingling screamed as she was awakened from her dreams. Suddenly, a strong light shone in her eyes and her vision turned black. She vaguely realized that she was no longer in the car.
She subconsciously wanted to stand, but she realized that she was tied to a sturdy stainless steel chair. Her hands were tied to the armrests, and her feet were tied to the legs of the chair. Other than her head and neck, she could not move any other part of her body.
“You’re finally awake. Did you have a good sleep?” A young lady’s unhurried voice echoed in the spacious warehouse.
Xu Lingling looked across at the voice and saw a chair not far from her. Sitting on it was a girl in a black down jacket.
This girl was very familiar. Xu Lingling had seen her not long ago.
“You’re… Zou Xingxing?” Xu Lingling raised her eyebrows in surprise.
Zou Xingxing smiled gently. “It’s rare that you still remember me.”
Xu Lingling looked around quickly. She was located in a particularly large warehouse. It was pitch-black around her, and the doors and windows were sealed shut.
Her heart instantly sank to the bottom. She turned to look at the girl sitting opposite her and said coldly, “Zou Xingxing, you dare to kidnap me? Do you know what my family does for a living? When my parents find me, they will definitely not let you off.”
Zou Xingxing sat on the chair and lazily crossed her legs. The smile on her face deepened.
She wasn’t considered pretty, and she had a pair of black-framed glasses on the bridge of her nose. She didn’t look like someone from the same world as an exquisite rich young miss like Xu Lingling. However, her smile was sinister, and her dark eyes were terrifyingly empty.
Xu Lingling looked at Zou Xingxing and found that she looked different. She couldn’t help but feel a chill run down her spine.
Zou Xingxing reached out with her thin hand and opened the school bag beside her, pulling out a sharp dagger.
Under the light, the dagger emitted a cold glint.
The moment Xu Lingling saw the dagger, her scalp exploded and her face turned pale. However, her pride made her unable to tolerate her own weakness. She pretended to be calm and asked, “Zou Xingxing, what exactly do you want?”
“Don’t panic. You’ll know what I want very soon.” Zou Xingxing put down her school bag and walked toward her with a sinister smile. She placed the cold knife against her face. “Xu Lingling, you sure are pretty. Your skin is so soft. I feel like I can destroy it easily without using any strength.”
Xu Lingling was so frightened by the coldness of the dagger that she started to inhale sharply. From the corner of her eye, she saw Zou Xingxing rubbing the dagger against her cheek bit by bit. “You, you… Don’t mess around! I will scream! I will really scream!!”
“This is a warehouse outside the suburbs. There’s not even a ghost in the vicinity. Even if you scream until your throat is hoarse, no one will come to save you.” Zou Xingxing moved the dagger in her hand to Xu Lingling’s neck and smiled as she tilted her head. “Do you not believe me? Come on, let’s try.”
Before Xu Lingling could react, Zou Xingxing had placed the dagger on her neck and easily slit a hair-like wound.
