Chapter 214 - Caning (1/2)
Chapter 214 CaningEveryone turned to look at Tang Xia in shock. Even La Chapelle thought that Tang Xia was crazy. In situations like this, the one who admitted to it would definitely have to die! Yet she dared to admit directly!
Li Xianxian was also startled. She had never thought that Tang Xia would become so crazy as to walk up to death herself. Even though she was overjoyed in her heart, when she saw how righteous Tang Xia looked, she suppressed the joy in her heart and side-glanced at Chu Tianjiao.
Tang Xia, this time around I didn’t harm you, you’re the one who inflicted death upon yourself. You really can’t be stopped!
Subconsciously, La Chapelle secretly tugged at Tang Xia’s shirt. She leaned towards her and whispered to her.
“Are you crazy?!”
However, Tang Xia showed no fear on her face and only kept on staring at Chu Tianjiao. She ignored La Chapelle and the sea of shocked faces completely.
However, she felt uncomfortable from the gazes cast on her. For example, that tint of pity and that subtle sneer. At this instant, her emotions were complicated.
She had put in so much effort to help everyone escape together, but not all of those whom she offered her kindness would take it.
She only felt that these people were very cold towards her, yet she felt extremely helpless. So what if they were cold towards her? She should still save those whom she had to save.
La Chapelle saw that Tang Xia spoke not a word, as if she could not hear anything at all. She could not help but feel more anxious.
Seeing Chu Tianjiao’s face getting darker and darker, all hairs on La Chapelle’s body stood up. She really wanted to just pull Tang Xia away and run. But she was very clear that they would die faster if they were to escape.
Damn it, did this idiot leave the house without her brain?
Was it not best to deny something like this? They did not have any evidence against them, what was there to be afraid of? Why must she admit it? The one who was punishing this girl did not even check if it was Tang Xia.
She pulled Tang Xia over forcefully and glared at her while being mindful of their environment.
“Don’t anyhow admit! You can’t be a hero for everything!”
If she were to be a hero for this incident, it was very likely that she would lose her life! La Chapelle could only call such a daring move as stupidity!
However, Tang Xia had no response. One should be responsible for his own actions. She could not watch this girl be caned to death!
As a human with flesh and blood, she could not allow one’s life to be lost because of her. She took in a deep breath and glared into Chu Tianjiao’s eyes fearfully.
Seeing how stubborn she was, La Chapelle instantly felt like she was not angry anymore. She was so angry that she had no more temper. Why was she trying to be selfless at this moment! Her life was more important!
“If you were to die or get into an accident, then who’s going to bring them out of here?!”
Tang Xia froze a little and her heart wavered slightly. Just as she was still contemplating in her heart, Chu Tianjiao suddenly burst into laughter.
Tang Xia and La Chapelle were both shocked. They did not even have time to think about it. Tang Xia glared at Chu Tianjiao without taking her eyes off him. Her fist tightened.
She actually feared death terribly. Even though she was very clear that this was just a game world, she was still very afraid of death. However, she had no other choice. As compared to death, she was more intolerable of watching someone die because of her.
She did not want to owe anyone, nor did she wish to cause trouble to others. Hence, she had no choice but to lift up her head and look him in the eye stubbornly.
All who were present heard Chu Tianjiao’s loud laughter. Everyone did not even dare to breathe, even Li Xianxian, who stood at one side, also held her breath. She too did not know what was wrong with Chu Tianjiao. Was he triggered from being too angry?
However, she was very smart. She was very good at observing men. For an attractive man like Chu Tianjiao, she was very clear that at this moment, all she had to do was to stand by his side quietly and utter not a single word.
Who knows? You might suddenly say something wrong and you could fall from heaven to hell the next moment. The more you say, the more mistake you would make. This idiom was applicable anywhere.
Chu Tianjiao laughed out loud and the laughter stopped all of a sudden. The whole punishment area became extremely quiet. Tang Xia also stood motionless. She did not blink her eyes. She glared at him carefully, as if she was trying to figure out his thoughts.
But how would his thoughts be read so easily?
“You said…you want to replace her?”
His voice at this moment was like Satan’s. It was playful, yet one could clearly hear that tint of strange coldness in his voice.
Tang Xia was taken aback by his question but reacted quickly. She lifted her head and nodded solemnly, proving how determined she was about it.
