14 Love or Life? 14 (1/2)

”I've decided.”

008:”Decided what?”

You're not thinking of something crazy, right?

Xi Sheng tapped the table multiple times, as if in a deep thought. Her eyes lingering in the so-called 'food.'

”If I don't do anything, the chances of me getting alive is getting slimmer and slimmer. If I do something, even 0.01 percent might add to my chances of winning.”

008's eyes widen in surprise.

”I didn't know that the pit in your brain was quite big...”

I mean, your realization is pretty obvious...

Xi Sheng:”...”

That's quite mean, you know? I'm just asking for a mental support okay?

008:”Do you have a particular plan in mind?”

Xi Sheng grins:”I have. And it's gonna be quite gruesome and bloody...”

008 watches as Xi Sheng took a spoon and fork and scoop out a white, plump and squirming worm. It's antenna vibrating randomly. You can even see how it's body move back and forth.

008's eyes flinched:”You're not telling me that---”

Xi Sheng grabs the worm by its head and bite off its squirming body.

Xi Sheng licks her lips in amusement:”It tastes good. Its creamy like soft melted toffee.”

Xi Sheng scoop more bite the worms' head one by one.

008:”Y..You're crazy! You might catch diarrhea or bacterial poisoning!”

Why are you eating that worm! Are you crazy?!

Seeing 008's petrified state, the mechanical voice states:[That's a sago worm[1] , you imbecile. It's edible.]

Xi Sheng messed up other dishes but didn't dare to put them in her belly. She just makes it seems that she tries eating it.

”Now that we're done the first step, it's time to do the second one.”

Xi Sheng clenches her teeth in preparation. The fork in her right hand aimed at the back of her ring finger.

Swish!

The fork itself isn't sharp to even graze the skin.

Xi Sheng smile in agony:”You know what torture is? It's this.”

008 snorted:”Why don't you just bite it?”

You'll have a higher chance of precision rate.

Xi Sheng:”Yes, but my brain won't let my teeth bite it[2]. The force of the teeth will be lessened. So we need an external factor. The fork will definitely penetrate the skin.”

008 scratch his head:”You really sound like a masochistic pervert there.”

She once again pierces the back of her ring finger, but this time red blood fluid is oozing nonstop.

The finger was feeling numb, Xi Sheng pinched it until enough blood is overflowing.

Xi Sheng stood up and let the blood trickled in the spot she was sitting before.

After the 'blood-ritual,' Xi Sheng grins and mutters:”System, watch slowly. You will spectate the art of acting.”

Xi Sheng licks her bloody finger while dialing a certain 'home-service.'

”Can someone...Someone visits me... Hisss.. My stomach... Hurts...”

The person on the other line gasps in surprise:”I'll be there quickly!”

Xi 'in pain' Sheng sat down while her body shakes in--

”This will be fun... I think?”

--excitement.

Not long after the call, a maid knock in the door. Xi Sheng painfully gave her permission.

It's the maid who called herself Khan.

Khan looks at the 'pale' and 'weakened' Miss Xi.

She closes the door and asks worriedly:”What's wrong Miss Xi? Do you have any allergies to the food we served?”

Xi Sheng's face started to sweat and her breathing became even more deep.

Xi Sheng:”System, it hurts! I think it will leave a mark with black and blue color in it!”

Her hands pinch her thigh fiercer. Tears also start to form in her eyes.

008 smiles:”Your sacrifice will greatly contribute to the art of acting.”

Xi Sheng staggered in standing up.

The faint crimson color on the surface of the sofa didn't escape the maid's eyes.

Khan asks hesitantly:”Miss Xi, this might sound personal.. But, is aunt[3] visiting you today?”

Xi Sheng's eyes became unfocused, and helplessness can be seen.

As if realizing what's going on, Khan gently smiles at her:”I understand. I will be back quickly.”

After a few minutes of waiting, Khan handed a plastic of disposable pads and clothes.

Xi Sheng:”T.. Thank you. The sofa...”

Khan:”I will clean it now.”

Xi Sheng staggers upon standing up.
