You Choose an Adopted Son, I Choose Madness - Chapter 72:

Chapter 72: Building a Relationship with Wang Yiyi:

The blade in Su Chen’s hand gleamed coldly, reflecting the excitement in his shining eyes.

The effect was chillingly perfect.

Wang Hai and Wang Yiyi were frozen in terror.

But Su Chen was completely at ease.

He grinned from ear to ear, lowering the blade and gently placing it against Wang Yiyi’s delicate, fair thigh, which was exposed beneath her skirt.

His eyes gleamed with fascination as he stared at the sharp glint of the blade against her snowy white skin, his smile turning almost entranced.

The knife in his hand slowly traced an invisible white mark on her leg as he lightly slid it upward.

Wang Yiyi’s leg began trembling uncontrollably.

Soon, the knife reached the edge of her short skirt.

It was blocked.

Su Chen was displeased.

He frowned and let the knife rest against the fabric at the top of her thigh, then lifted his gaze to Wang Yiyi, who looked pale as a ghost.

“Yiyi, your skirt is in the way.”

He let out a long sigh.

“Forget it for today… But from now on, when we’re alone, Yiyi, you mustn’t let your skirt get in the way.”

“How disappointing that would be!”

Finally snapping out of her shock, Wang Yiyi let out a piercing scream, staring at Su Chen in terror.

But she didn’t dare to move.

The knife was still pressed against her leg.

If she made even the slightest wrong move, who knew if Su Chen would actually cut into her flesh?

“Dad! Dad! Save me!”

“Dad, please save me!”

Her voice turned desperate, on the verge of sobbing.

Wang Hai, both furious and terrified, held onto his daughter’s shoulders but didn’t dare move.

His daughter’s leg was still under Su Chen’s blade.

If he provoked Su Chen, who knew what the madman might do?!

“Su Chen, what do you think you’re doing?!”

“Put that knife down right now!”

“If you so much as scratch my daughter, I swear I won’t let you off!”

But Su Chen acted as if he hadn’t heard him at all.

His expression remained entranced, as if he were completely immersed in his own world.

He continued twirling the knife in slow, circular motions against the fabric of Wang Yiyi’s skirt.

As if he were measuring exactly where he wanted to cut.

Wang Yiyi was so terrified that she completely broke down.

Tears streamed uncontrollably from her eyes.

“Dad! Dad, save me!”

“Su Chen is going to chop my leg off!”

“Dad!”

Wang Hai, seeing that Su Chen wasn’t responding, turned and glared at Chairman Su.

“Chairman Su, look at what your son is doing!”

“He’s holding a knife to my daughter!”

“Tell him to stop right now!”

“If you don’t, our Wang family will never forgive the Su family!”

At first, the Su family had not realized what was happening.

Since Su Chen’s back was facing them, they hadn’t noticed the blade pressed against Wang Yiyi’s thigh.

But when Wang Yiyi and Wang Hai started shouting in panic, they immediately stood up in shock and rushed over.

What they saw left them stunned.

The knife in Su Chen’s hand gleamed under the lights as it traced delicate patterns over Wang Yiyi’s trembling white skin.

The Su family was completely frozen in fear.

Yes, Su Chen had played with knives before.

But that was a while ago.

They had almost forgotten that when he lost control, he would resort to using blades.

But was this really necessary over a marriage arrangement?

Did he really need to pull out a knife again?!

Did he have to go this far?!

Chairman Su, jolted back to his senses by Wang Hai’s furious shouting, let out a bitter laugh.

If Su Chen didn’t want to marry Wang Yiyi, he could have just said so!

Why the hell did he have to pull out a knife?!

Even though he was deeply displeased with Su Chen’s behavior, Chairman Su didn’t dare to approach him and snatch the knife away.

Who knew if Su Chen would suddenly turn the blade on him instead?

After all, last time, he had even forced Chairman Su to stab him in the throat!

Chairman Su forced a stiff smile and cautiously said,

“Su Chen, let’s talk about this calmly, alright?”

“There’s no need for violence.”

“Just put the knife down, okay?”

“No need to scare anyone.”

Then, Chairman Su turned and shot a fierce glare at Liu Yanan.

After all, it was Liu Yanan who had insisted on this marriage alliance!

Now that things had gone south, she had better not try to weasel her way out of it!

Liu Yanan understood his meaning immediately.

She was furious inside.

What the hell was Su Chen’s problem?!

A marriage with Wang Yiyi was a damn good deal!

The Wang family was rich, Wang Yiyi was beautiful and fair-skinned.

Was Su Chen seriously acting like he was being wronged?

What was there to be unhappy about?!

Still, no matter how frustrated she was, Liu Yanan didn’t dare say it outright.

Because Su Chen’s knife was real.

With a gentle, coaxing voice, she said,

“That’s right, Su Chen.”

“Listen to your father. Let’s talk things over properly.”

“Put the knife down first, and then we can discuss things calmly.”

Su Chen wasn’t interested in responding to either of them.

The knife in his hand, and Wang Yiyi’s soft, trembling thigh, were far more interesting.

Who had the patience to listen to their chatter?

But Chairman Su and Liu Yanan just wouldn’t shut up.

They kept nagging like a pair of old monks chanting scriptures.

Su Chen got irritated.

With the knife still pressed against Wang Yiyi’s leg, he turned his impatient gaze toward them.

“What the hell are you yelling about?!”

“Didn’t you say that Yiyi was my future wife?”

“I’m just trying to bond with my future wife!”

“You should be happy for us!”

“So why the hell are you interrupting?!”

“Right, Yiyi?”

After snapping at Chairman Su and Liu Yanan, Su Chen turned his smiling face toward Wang Yiyi.

Then, his expression darkened.

Wang Yiyi was no longer on the couch.

The knife in his hand was now pointing at thin air.

His brows furrowed as he slowly turned his gaze toward Wang Yiyi, who was now hiding behind the Su family, clinging to Wang Hai.

His voice turned dangerously low.

“Yiyi, what are you doing?”

“Aren’t we future husband and wife?”

“I like you so much.”

“Why are you standing so far away from me?”

“Yiyi, come back here right now, so we can continue bonding.”

“I believe we will make a loving, enviable couple in the future.”

As he spoke, the knife in his hand twirled gracefully, its sharp edge flashing in the light, its point aimed directly at Wang Yiyi.

Seeing the cold blade reflecting that insane glint in Su Chen’s eyes, remembering the feeling of the knife gliding against her skin, Wang Yiyi shuddered violently.

Then she screamed.

“Bullshit!”

“Who the hell is your future wife?!”

“Who the hell agreed to marry you?!”

“I was supposed to marry Su Mu!”

“Su Mu is my real fiancé!”

At that moment, Wang Yiyi had made up her mind.

Marrying Su Mu would be humiliating.

Marrying Su Chen… would be the death of her!
