At this moment, my heart tightened, my nails dug deeply into my palm, and I forced myself to calm down.

A flash of inspiration came to my mind, and I suddenly swayed my body, murmuring in pain, "It hurts, what's going on..."

I slightly turned my body toward the window and suddenly spat out a mouthful of water, mixed with blood.

"Teng Yu" pressed against the window, staring at my actions without moving.

I bit my teeth hard, just tearing the membrane inside my mouth, the taste of blood thick in my mouth.

Raising my hand, I struck my head fiercely, my eyes slightly closed, and finally, I couldn't bear it any longer, my body went limp and collapsed to the ground.

After a long time, I felt the eerie gaze of "Teng Yu" disappear from the window, and I seemed to hear his faint footsteps.

As the door was pushed open, I hurriedly closed my eyes tightly and held my breath.

"Teng Yu" walked over and leaned in front of me, raising that kitchen knife and chopping down fiercely toward my neck.

Death was only a step away from me. In this life-and-death crisis, I chose to fake unconsciousness as a gamble.

At this moment, my heart seemed to be pounding in my throat, and I could hear my own unnatural heartbeat.

"Bang"—the sound of something hitting the ground.

I was picked up and placed back on the bed, the movements were not gentle.

He leaned down, pressing upon me, and his fingers slowly moved down from my forehead. Those few fingers were icy cold, with a weird sticky feeling.

Goosebumps rose all over my body.

The hand that was already touching my neck suddenly stopped, and I heard the man's ghostly, cold voice.

"Han Han, are you pretending to be unconscious?"

I was terrified inside, but my eyes remained tightly shut.

Time seemed to stop. "Teng Yu" still pressed against me, although he made no further actions.

But I could feel that cold gaze, like a venomous snake, staring at me intently.

Finally, he got up from me, seemingly walking towards the door, his footsteps a bit odd, as if walking tiptoed.

"Creak, bang!"

The door closed, and a moment later, I couldn't feel any other movement in the room.

However, after the terrifying scene just now, I didn't dare to open my eyes rashly, even though my forehead and palms were already covered in sweat.

Time ticked by, and I couldn't bear the urgent need to pee any longer.

I couldn't help but open my eyes, a sharp pain in my neck, and at that moment, my heart stopped.

"Teng Yu" was holding the knife, his scarlet tongue stretched long, just like a snake's tongue.

He licked the blood on his cheek, smiling evilly.

The knife fell again, my head rolled to the ground.

I stood aside, watching this scene, unable to believe it.

Am I dead?

"Teng Yu" grabbed my long hair and lifted my head, then suddenly turned and stared coldly in the direction where I was standing...
