Chapter 241 - That Shameless Hussy! (1/2)
Chapter 241 That Shameless Hussy!Ling Er’s expression suddenly changed. Her beautiful face instantly twisted in fury.
“How dare you!” She stared viciously at Tangxia and screamed.
“Ha,” Tang Xia snorted. “There isn’t anything that I don’t dare to do. Aren’t I a used rag like what a certain someone just said?”
Ling Er knew that Tang Xia was threatening her, and she was so angry that her chest heaved continuously, while her tiny face flushed red from the suppression.
“Tsk tsk tsk.” Tang Xia shook her head and a strange smile appeared on her face. When Ling Er saw that, she could feel a cold, chilly sensation crawling up from her soles.
“Ling Er, say, did you have this same expression when you were rolling on the bed with that man who snuck into the mansion?”
That chilling sensation surged straight to her brain!
Ling Er’s face, which was originally red, because of her deep intakes of breath, instantly darkened. She widened her eyes and looked at Tang Xia incredulously.
“What did you say?” she asked. “I don’t know what you are talking about!” Ling Er continued to force herself to put on a strong front, although she was feeling faint inside. She glared at Tang Xia.
“What am I talking about? Madam Ling, are you sure you don’t know?”
Tang Xia continued to smile as she spoke. However, in the eyes of Ling Er, Tang Xia’s smile was not simply an eyesore. It was like a sharp blade that pierced her heart. Her hands clutched tightly at the corner of her clothes, and cold sweat broke out on her palms, and even drenched the corners of her clothes.
“Madam Ling, if you do not want anyone to know about it, then don’t do it. This time, I was the one who caught the man. But next time, if he continues to behave out of place like this and sneak into the mansion, who do you think he will be caught by?”
Tang Xia took a step forward and patted Ling Er’s face pitifully, with a regretful look on her face.
Ling Er’s teeth bit hard into her lips. She was afraid that Tang Xia had hidden something sharp in her hands, in order to destroy the face that she had always been proud of.
“You… why are you helping me?” she asked in a shaky voice.
“Help you?” Tang Xia felt as if she heard the greatest joke in the world. “Oh my god. Little girl, you’ve just contracted the punch lines for my entire year.”
Ling Er did not know what the words “contract” and “punch lines” meant, and she looked at Tangxia quizzically.
“Ling Er, Ling Er. You should know that Zhong Ze has never doted on me. Will he believe me if I were to tell him directly that I caught your lover?”
Tang Xia gnashed her teeth as she said this. She felt her frustration building up when she thought about being beaten up by that bastard, as well as how that mentally retarded Zhong Ze chose not believe her.
Since Zhong Ze did not believe her, she would use this incident to scare Lin Er. Perhaps there could be some unexpected gains!
On the other hand, Ling Er also meticulously spelt out what Tang Xia meant.
Tang Xia meant that if she did not mention that cursed man this time round, but if he disregards his own life and flips over the wall again the next time, there would be a high chance that he would be discovered by the master.
If the master found out about him and Tang Xia were to tell the master that she had caught the man previously, she, Ling Er, would be doomed beyond redemption.
She could not allow this to happen!
“Ling Er, the heavens are watching everything that you do. I am kind enough to help you to cover up your unfaithfulness this time round. You might not be so lucky the next time round!”
“God is fair. You’ve messed up big time this time round. Next time, maybe God will also want to mess up big time on you to regain some dignity!”
Ling Er instantly turned deathly pale from fear.
Tang Xia seemed to anticipate the everchanging expressions on Ling Er’s face. She was finally able to release the pent up anger in her heart. Before Tang Xia left, she did not forget to remark sarcastically, “Look out for yourself, the most favorited mistress madam of the master of the Zhong Mansion!”
Right after Tang Xia stepped out of the door, she heard the sound of a resounding crash behind her.
Even without looking, Tang Xia already knew that Ling Er must have smashed all the things that could be destroyed in her house, in order to produce such a loud sound that would startle the universe and move the gods.
Tang Xia returned to her courtyard in high spirits. She sat in a chair and pretended to taste the tea. “By the way, Bi Luo, where is the man whom we caught yesterday? Bring him over. I want to interrogate him!”
Bi Luo shrugged and began to stutter.
Tang Xia frowned and instantly sensed that something was not quite right. She slammed the table. “Bi Luo, I said to bring that man over. I want to interrogate him!”
Unexpectedly, Bi Luo suddenly fell to her knees and knelt on the ground. Her teary eyes looked down slightly and she said in an aggrieved tone, “Madam, that man is no longer in our courtyard!”
“Where did he go!” Tang Xia cursed silently. “A big, living person could not just have evaporated into thin air!”
“He… he…”
“Speak up!” Tang Xia slammed the table again. She already had a vague answer in her heart.
“He was taken away by the master!” Bi Luo was now on all fours, and she kowtowed repeatedly.
As expected!
Tang Xia cursed Zhong Ze’s generation of ancestors in her heart, and she commiserated with herself for having the greatest misfortune to have such an incompetent pig of a teammate.
Tang Xia’s heart felt doubly tired. She stood up and went back inside to take a short rest. However, the moment she laid down, she felt that there was something about the position of her pillow, that did not seem right. She quickly pulled the pillow away and discovered that the letter of divorce, which she had hidden under the pillow, was gone!
She did not give up and continued to feel about under her pillow.
Nothing!
Zhong Ze had taken back her letter of divorce!
Tang Xia felt a silent glee in her heart. Fortunately, Zhong Ze was a mummy’s boy and she had the backing of the Old Madam, who was the best person in the entire Zhong Mansion who could control Zhong Ze. She was very lucky indeed.
She laid limply on the bed and felt very gleeful! Subsequently, she heard another sound and in one flip, she rolled from the ground to the bed.
That was the scene which Bi Luo saw when she came in. Madam lying flat on the bed with a pillow in her arms, and a look that seemed to indicate that there was no meaning left in anything.
“My Madam!” She rushed over straight away. “Don’t take things too hard!”
Tang Xia turned her head stiffly to one side, with a vacant look in her eyes and she looked so pitiful.
