Are you stupid? I am the villain behind the scenes

Hua Xi subconsciously moved the knife away a little to prevent the other party from accidentally hurting her in a panic.

Then she said, "I'm sorry, my sister is in Li Qingchi's hands, I can only do this."

Hua Chaochao was so frightened that she dared not move. After hearing Hua Xi's words, she looked up at Li Qingchi and asked in surprise: "Chief Li, did you capture Miss Bai's sister?"

Li Qingchi looked at Hua Chaochao's frightened expression and couldn't help but sigh in his heart: What a good actress.

But he was not to be outdone, and continued, "Yes, she held you hostage and asked me to release her sister."

Hua Chaochao: "So you mean not to let it go?"

"I can't let her go." Li Qingchi frowned and said, "She already knows about the experiment. If we don't detain her, she will spread the news without any scruples. The consequences will be disastrous."

Hua Chaozhao lowered her eyes and whispered, "I know."

Then, she suddenly raised her head again, with a firm look, as if she had made some kind of resolution, "Miss Bai, I support Chief Li's approach. You can't let your sister go because of me. Just kill me."

As soon as she finished speaking, she closed her eyes tightly, then raised her head high, exposing her fair and slender neck without hesitation, as if she was ready to die bravely.

Li Qingchi: ...It's too shameful to watch.

Yi Mu was calm: I’m used to it.

In this performance, the only person who was immersed in the role was Hua Xi.

She looked at Hua Chaozhao for a long while and murmured, "Why must it be like this?"

What exactly is that experiment that you value so much that you are willing to sacrifice your life for it?

Hua Xi didn’t understand, and couldn’t understand.

Hua Chaochao waited for a long time with her eyes closed, but Hua Xi didn't make any move, so she slowly opened her eyes, looked straight at Hua Xi, and said softly: "Miss Bai, what are you still hesitating about? Go ahead."

Then he closed his eyes again, "Everyone has something they stick to, and I am no exception. The Hidden Web Master treats me like his own son and has been very kind to me, so I must protect him, even if it costs me my life."

Hua Xi clenched the knife in his hand, and the tip of the knife gradually approached Hua Chaochao's neck.

This is where the aorta is located. If you just scratch it with a little force, blood will gush out, and no matter how advanced the medical skills are, they will be powerless to save the patient.

There was a hint of unspeakable struggle in Hua Xi's eyes.

Ye Xiao helped Li Qingchi to kill several people and aided the tyrant. Logically, she deserved to be put to death, but why... couldn't she do it?

Is it because she helped me?

But this does not erase the sins she committed.

Just when Hua Xi was caught up in a fierce inner struggle, Hua Chaochao, who had been waiting for her to take action, became a little impatient: You're taking so long, it looks like I have to give her a push myself.

Hua Chaochao's delicate white hands suddenly grasped the cold blade and pulled it towards herself. Hua Xi was startled and quickly pulled back the knife, but it was too late.

The knife cut Hua Chaochao's palm, and blood gushed out all of a sudden, instantly dyeing her sleeves red.

Yi Mu saw this scene at the side and his face turned pale. He wanted to look over Hua Chaochao's hand, but found that he could not move at all. His feet seemed to be nailed to the ground.

[Control your expression, I'm fine. ]

Hua Chaochao's warning voice sounded in his mind.

How could he be okay after losing so much blood?

Yi Mu was extremely anxious, but he couldn't resist Hua Chaochao's words. He had no choice but to try to calm his expression, but his eyes were fixed on Hua Chaochao's injured hand, feeling very distressed.

Li Qingchi was a little confused and surprised. He didn't expect Ye Xiao to be serious about it.

The scene just now was so thrilling that Hua Xi is still frightened.

She threw away the knife stained with Hua Chao’s blood, and couldn’t help but said angrily: “Are you crazy?”

If she hadn't pulled the knife back in time, it would have gone straight into her neck and she would have died!

Hua Chaochao covered her injured palm with her other hand. She was in so much pain that her face turned pale, but she still managed to endure the pain and smiled: "I'm not crazy. I just don't want to embarrass you."

"What does my being in trouble have to do with you?" Hua Xi really didn't understand. They were obviously not related at all, but Ye Xiao seemed to always be thinking about her.
