Chapter 213 - Im The One Behind All This (1/2)

Chapter 213 I’m The One Behind All This“What’s wrong? Did anything happen?” Tang Xia asked, when she saw that Haidala was acting abnormally.

Haidala did not even glance at Tang Xia, as she replied in an extremely cold voice, “You guys should go. My agreement with you is already nullified.” After which, she opened the door, and her attitude was as if she was chasing them away.

La Chapelle looked at Tang Xia, and her whole face was filled with confusion. Meanwhile, Tang Xia was even more shocked. “Why?”

She had put in a lot of effort to persuade Haidala to join her. Now that their chance was near, she did not expect that Haidala would want out. Tang Xia could not stop her expression from changing, and she quickly asked in a different tone.

However, as if she had turned into a different person, Haidala was extremely cold towards Tang Xia. No matter how Tang Xia asked, she would not say anything. Later on, she felt so stressed from the questioning that her facial expression changed completely, and she pushed Tang Xia outside.

“I already said that our agreement has been nullified, you guys are not welcome here anymore.” Haidala’s face was dark, and she even picked up her mace. Her intention was clear; if Tang Xia and La Chapelle did not leave any sooner, she would take action.

Tang Xia and La Chapelle looked into each others’ eyes. Their gazes was filled with helplessness. In such a situation, no matter how unwilling they were, they could only leave.

“Okay, I will leave immediately, as long as you answer my question. And I promise that I will never come back to bother you,” Tang Xia said to Haidala, as she gritted her teeth.

Haidala’s facial expression relaxed a little, maybe because she saw that Tang Xia was about to leave. However, she did not say anything.

Tang Xia saw it and knew that Haidala was wavering. Her voice became softer as she continued, “Even if you change your mind, you have to give me an explanation. Otherwise, I really can’t accept it.”

Tang Xia was extremely sincere, and she did make sense.

Seeing Tang Xia’s sincere gaze, Haidala’s gaze finally softened a little. She said to her hesitantly, “Fine, I’ll tell you. But you have to promise that you’ll leave immediately after, and you won’t tell anyone else.”

Haidala said, as she threw the mace aside. Tang Xia quickly nodded and said, “I promise.” As long as Haidala was willing to open up, there was still a chance for things to turn around.

Seeing that Tang Xia had made a promise, Haidala then started to explain.

“That day, after you left, I tried to convey your idea to the other girls in hell. One of them quickly tried it. They’ve already had enough of staying here and could not tolerate it any longer.”

“Elsa was one of them, and she was the most excited. Sigh, I should have noticed it sooner.”

Speaking of which, Haidala sighed and she began to look sad. She muttered, “If I had discovered it sooner and talked her out of it, perhaps it would not be like this right now.”

Her depressed tone caused Tang Xia and La Chapelle to have a bad feeling. “What happened afterward?” Seeing that Haidala was not saying anything, Tang Xia could not help prompting her.

Haidala looked up and glanced at her, before quickly looking down again. Her voice was a little low and hoarse, as if she was swallowing a lump in her throat. “Elsa could not hold back and she was caught escaping. She will be publicly caned today.”

Caning! Tang Xia and La Chapelle both knew what it meant. Hearing this, their gazes lost focus for a moment, and both were struck dumb. No one would have expected this to happen.

No wonder Haidala had such a big change in her attitude. Anyone who faced this would waver. After listening to her explanation, Tang Xia finally understood why Haidala wanted to call it off.

After Haidala was done, her eyes also darkened by a few shades. She then told Tang Xia and La Chapelle, “Okay, this is the story. You can go now.”

Tang Xia and La Chapelle stood up and took a few steps towards the door. Just as they reached the door, Tang Xiacould not help turning back. She held onto Haidala’s hand and tried to persuade her again, “That was just an accident. Nothing would happen to us as long as we stick to my plan.”

Haidala glanced at her absent-mindedly, and did not say a word.

“You don’t believe me? Haidala, the chance is right in front of our eyes, don’t you want to escape?” Tang Xia looked at her and asked anxiously. She really could not bear to see Haidala give up just like that.

That girl had failed because she was too rash. She had not planned out the route and direction properly. However, Tang Xia was different. As long as Haidala cooperated with her, she was confident that she could help them to escape safely.

After she continued to persuade her for a while, Haidala finally sighed. She shook off Tang Xia’s hand, and said, “It’s not that I don’t believe you, but it’s that it’s useless when only I believe in you.”

After the news of Elsa being caught and that she would be caned spread to hell, all the other girls lost the courage to escape. Other than Haidala, no other girl believed in Tang Xia.

When she heard what Haidala said, Tang Xia’s brows furrowed, and she was also a little discouraged. Elsa’s accident was a huge blow to the girls in hell. Even with Haidala’s help, it would be very difficult to restore their confidence.
