Chapter 125: In the Next Life
Xu Jingyun’s anger surged, and just as she was about to lash out, she caught Master Tang leering at Xia Chenge, his gaze so intense it seemed he wanted to devour her whole.
Xu Jingyun suddenly calmed down, a wicked thought forming: if Xia Chenge were violated, even if she survived, she would be trapped in an abyss of suffering forever!
What method of torment could be crueler than a life worse than death? Xu Jingyun curled her lips into a sinister smile.
“You’re so mean, yesterday you called me your sweetie, and today you’re looking at another woman,” Xu Jingyun playfully hit him, her voice sweet. “Hmph, men are all big liars.”
Master Tang knew this was a game and quickly embraced Xu Jingyun, coaxing her, “How could she compare to you? You’re my darling. I still prefer rolling around in bed with you. Don’t worry, you’re the only one in my eyes.”
“You can only play around, don’t take it seriously,” Xu Jingyun deliberately warned.
“Okay, okay, I promise!” Master Tang kissed her with a smack, his breath so foul it almost made Xu Jingyun want to vomit.
“After you’re done playing, give her to your brothers! Otherwise, I won’t be happy,” Xu Jingyun pouted, pressing herself against Master Tang.
Master Tang understood. Xia Chenge had come to the bar on her own, and if anything happened, he had ways to deal with it. Moreover, someone from the Ling family also wanted Xia Chenge dead…
“Yes, I promise you everything!”
“Then can I stay? I want to see her beg you for mercy under you.”
“Darling, you’re so wicked!”
“Master Tang, it’s not like I haven’t seen your treasure.”
“Hahaha… then you can stay. Just don’t beg me to pamper you later.”
“You’re so mean!”
…
Xia Chenge almost threw up listening to their conversation.
She never expected Xu Jingyun to stoop so low to get revenge on her, willing to debase herself for an old man from the underworld.
Although this Master Tang had some influence in Haicheng, confronting the Ling family was like a mantis trying to stop a chariot. Was he brainless, or was there some secret behind this? She didn’t believe someone like him would be so easily swayed by a high school student.
“Bring some wine,” Xu Jingyun said again.
Master Tang asked, “What’s this for?”
“To spice things up for you, Master Tang. This is good stuff. After she drinks it, I guarantee you’ll have a great time,” Xu Jingyun said coyly.
“You little vixen, you have so many wicked ideas, you’re just my type!” Master Tang laughed heartily.
Xu Jingyun snorted, “Then you’re not allowed to play with other women anymore. This is the first and last time.”
“Whatever you say, little vixen. I really want to have you.”
“If you have me, how will you play with her?”
“What, you doubt my ability?”
“Not at all…”
Xu Jingyun’s subsequent words were swallowed by strange sounds.
Xia Chenge quietly opened her eyes and saw the two entangled, a truly eye-burning sight. She quickly closed her eyes: good children shouldn’t look at things that will give them a sty.
Only when the person returned with the wine did the two separate, panting.
Xu Jingyun took the wine, poured a packet of something into it, and shook it until it was mixed. Then she walked over to Xia Chenge, ordered someone to pry open Xia Chenge’s mouth, and prepared to force-feed her.
Just as they were about to touch Xia Chenge, she suddenly opened her eyes. Her sharp gaze startled them, nearly making them fall to the ground.
Xu Jingyun’s breathing hitched, and she suddenly felt as if her blood had frozen. Her movements became sluggish.
“What are you trying to do, my dear sister?” Xia Chenge asked with a half-smile.
These words sent a bone-chilling fear through Xu Jingyun, as if she had fallen into an ice cellar, her limbs stiff.
“You’re awake?” Master Tang stepped forward upon hearing the voice. Seeing Xia Chenge with her eyes open, he was even more stunned into speechlessness, captivated. His voice softened unconsciously, “Are you… alright?”
Xu Jingyun finally came to her senses, forcing herself to suppress the fear Xia Chenge brought. This was Master Tang’s territory; no matter how capable she was, could she fight so many men?
Xia Chenge, you’re dead today!
“Drink this,” Xu Jingyun said coldly. “Cooperate obediently, and I might spare your life. If you resist, don’t blame us for being impolite.”
“What do you want to do to me?” Xia Chenge asked, her gaze fixed on Master Tang. Her faint smile made Master Tang’s heart flutter.
“What do you want?” Master Tang retorted.
“This is your territory, you have the final say,” Xia Chenge said, appearing fragile.
“Hahaha, my woman says you offended her. But today, I’ll make the decision. As long as you bow your head and apologize, I can let it slide.” Master Tang found Xia Chenge much smarter than Xu Jingyun, and also more beautiful.
He naturally preferred smarter and more beautiful women, recognizing that knowing when to yield was a sign of wisdom.
Upon hearing this, Xu Jingyun’s face changed drastically. “Master Tang, you promised me just now. How can you let it slide? You’re not keeping your word?”
Master Tang’s expression immediately soured. “Jingyun, I have the final say here.”
“Master Tang, I respect you as a man,” Xia Chenge said meaningfully.
“What do you mean by that?” Facing Xia Chenge, Master Tang’s expression softened, and he asked with interest.
“You dare to want a woman like Xu Jingyun? Don’t forget she was thrown out of Ling Hanmu’s birthday banquet by the Ling family. Have you really considered the consequences of associating with someone the Ling family dislikes?”
“What consequences?”
“Perhaps you won’t be able to survive in Haicheng, or perhaps you’ll go to hell with Xu Jingyun!” Xia Chenge sat up and said with a smile.
“Bitch, how dare you sow discord!” Xu Jingyun was furious and immediately stepped forward, trying to force the drugged wine into Xia Chenge’s mouth. “Master Tang, this woman is insidious, cunning, and full of tricks. Don’t fall for her trap. Don’t forget how badly the Zhou family was schemed against by her. Do you want to end up in the same situation?”
At Xu Jingyun’s reminder, Master Tang regained his composure. This brat was indeed good at seducing people; she almost caused trouble.
Master Tang gave his subordinates a look, and they immediately stepped forward to hold Xia Chenge down, preventing her from moving.
Xu Jingyun sneered, finally venting her inner malice. Xia Chenge, you have a day like this too!
“Let me go!” Xia Chenge struggled frantically, but her calm eyes showed no fear.
“Drink this obediently, and then dream your daydreams! Wanting to marry into the Ling family, marry Ling Hanmu, that’s for the next life! What I can’t have, you, Xia Chenge, will never touch.” Xu Jingyun’s face contorted as she forced the wine into Xia Chenge’s mouth.
“Mmmph mmmph mmmph…” Xia Chenge desperately tried to dodge, but she couldn’t escape. In the end, Xu Jingyun poured the wine into her mouth, choking her into a fit of coughing, tears streaming down her face.
“Go to hell, bitch, hahaha…” Xu Jingyun laughed wildly as the cup became empty.
However, in an instant, a change occurred.
