Chu Jing looked at his appearance and sighed softly.
"I wasn't planning on bullying her… I just wanted to teach her a lesson."
"From the very beginning, I only wanted to kill you."
Faced with Chu Jing's icy gaze, Yingmu felt a chill creep into his heart.
This wasn't a threat, nor was it a test.
It was a genuine, heartfelt desire to end his life.
Just as he hesitated, wondering whether to speak, Chu Jing spoke again.
"Du Nan. Today, only one of you and Yingmu will live."
Her voice held not a shred of hesitation or sympathy.
"I'll give you ten seconds to decide. When I count to ten, neither of you should expect to leave here alive."
After saying this, Chu Jing casually leaned against a nearby surface and stood still.
Then, she slowly opened her mouth.
"One… two… three…"
As Chu Jing reached the number nine…
A sudden, bloodcurdling scream tore through the dead silence.
For a moment, everyone froze.
