What does "Don't look at me like that" mean?
I am not sure if I should take it literally, because I think it's more like "Don't think of me like that/ that way". Please correct me if I am wrong. Thank you so much

Yes, you are correct. Generally when we use this expression the point is "don't think of me like that." Although usually there is a look involved first, which leads to a person thinking that they know what you feel towards them.

Thank you, Rich. If someone judges me for something I've just done, I say "Don't look at me like that". In this case, is it equal to "Don't think of me like that/that way"?

It’s an aggressive defensive question as the person thinks you’re staring at them or looking disappointed or judging for something they’ve just done
