“Ah!!”
Chen Shuping frantically clawed at her own hair, “Impossible, this is absolutely impossible!!”
She stood up abruptly, tearing violently at Jiang Zui’s clothes, “Zui Zui, don’t scare your aunt. Tell me the truth quickly, what happened to Boss Liu? Did you serve him well?”
Jiang Zui looked at the distraught Chen Shuping before her, a faint smile curling at the corners of her lips, her voice as calm as still water, “Aunt, he’s blind. He’s furious, says he wants to kill me, and… all of you.”
Smack!
Chen Shuping shoved Jiang Zui to the ground with all her might, kicking and hitting her like a madwoman,
“Damn it, you little bitch, you deserve to die! Why don’t you just die? You ruined everything for us! Why couldn’t you just obey? Why?!”
“I’ve worked so hard to raise you, made sure you studied well, kept you safe from bad men—why don’t you know how to be grateful?!”
“Come on, we still have a chance. Go back and apologize to Boss Liu right now. Tell him it was all your idea, that you’ll take full responsibility, whether he wants to kill you or cut you to pieces. Just don’t drag our family down with you!!”
Jiang Zui grabbed Chen Shuping’s fist and sneered, “Did you raise me for my sake? Chen Shuping, from start to finish, I was just your tool. You raised me so that one day you could sell me for a good price.”
“What? Scared now?”
She pointed at Jiang Jiaguang and shouted sharply, “He lost money, so why should I be the one to pay for it?!”
“Because you’re trash! That’s just your fate!”
Jiang Jiaguang roared as he charged over, grabbing Jiang Zui by the throat.
His eyes bulged to their limits, his yellowed teeth gnashing, “Do you know why you’re named Jiang Zui? You’re a fucking sinner! Damn it, you’ve eaten and lived in my house for so many years—did you think I raised you for free? Isn’t it just selling your body? Why couldn’t you just go along with it?! You’re nothing but a little whore, you deserve to die!”
Pfft!
Jiang Zui spat right in Jiang Jiaguang’s face.
Jiang Jiaguang flew into a rage.
He grabbed the girl by the shoulders and flung her away with all his strength.
Thud!
Jiang Zui was slammed hard onto the ground.
Already injured from her earlier struggle with Liu Ruifeng, she was now thrown down violently by Jiang Jiaguang.
Every bone in her body felt shattered, a suffocating pain spreading from her chest. She coughed violently a few times, spitting out bloody foam.
“Fuck your mother, you’re nothing but a cheap slut! How dare you cut off my money?!”
Jiang Jiaguang glared with bloodshot eyes, swinging his fists as he charged forward. “Damn it, I’ll beat you to death!”
“Don’t hit her face, beat the rest of her to death!” Chen Shuping shrieked from the side, her eyes venomous, “Her face is still useful! Even if we can’t sell her to Boss Liu now, we can sell her to a few more people and still make our money back!”
Jiang Jiaguang kicked and beat Jiang Zui like a madman,
“Fuck your mother! You whore who’s been ridden by thousands, you owe me money! Go die, just die right now!!”
“Ungrateful wretch! We fed you well and raised you for so many years, and it’s all because of your disobedience that you’ve ruined our family, even messed up Xi Xi’s job! You jinx, you bitch!!”
Chen Shuping pointed at Jiang Zui and cursed.
Jiang Zui curled into a ball, desperately protecting her head.
Jiang Jiaguang was too drunk after all, unsteady on his feet. After a few kicks, he stood there panting heavily.
“Damn it, you go find Boss Liu right now and apologize to him. Don’t drag us into this!” Jiang Jiaguang roared hoarsely.
“Ad… admission letter.”
A faint voice reached Jiang Jiaguang’s ears.
“What?” Jiang Jiaguang didn’t catch it clearly.
Jiang Zui raised her head, her face deathly pale.
“Give me back my admission letter.”
“Fuck!” Jiang Jiaguang laughed in anger. “At a time like this, you still have the nerve to ask for your admission letter?”
He crouched down and mockingly patted Jiang Zui’s cheek. “Let me tell you, you’ll never go to college in this lifetime! You’ve cut off our source of income, Jiang Zui, and I won’t let you off easy either! I’ll give you to countless men. Your final fate will be to rot and stink, becoming a disgusting, filthy whore that everyone can ride… Ah!!”
Jiang Jiaguang clutched his shoulder, staring at his blood-stained palm in disbelief as he glared at Jiang Zui. “You… you actually…”
“Murder!!”
Chen Shuping screamed like a madwoman. “You… you damn bitch! Have you lost your mind?!”
Jiang Zui trembled as she tightened her grip on the knife handle, pointing the blade at the two of them. “You forced me into this!”
She stretched out her hand, shouting with all her might, “Give me back my admission letter and all my documents!”
“You… you damn…”
Although Jiang Jiaguang had a fiery temper, he was a coward at heart. Jiang Zui’s stab wasn’t deep, but seeing the blood gush from his shoulder, his vision went dark, and he collapsed to the ground with a thud.
“Murder! You crazy bitch! Murder!!”
Chen Shuping was so terrified her hair stood on end.
Jiang Zui advanced step by step with the knife raised. “Give me back my things!”
Chen Shuping was completely paralyzed with fear. “Zui Zui, you… calm down first. I… I’ll give them to you… I’ll get them for you.”
She stumbled into the house and returned shortly, holding a box.
“All your things are inside.”
“Hurry up and give it to me!”
Jiang Zui’s eyes reddened.
Chen Shuping threw the box out the door.
Jiang Zui could no longer care about anything else and lunged forward.
With a bang, the door slammed shut and locked behind her.
Jiang Zui carefully opened the box.
She froze.
The golden admission letter and all her various documents had been cut into pieces.
Chen Shuping’s voice came from behind the door. “Bitch, I’ll tell you the truth. I never intended to let you go to college. You’re born lowly, you deserve to die! I’ve already told Boss Liu you’re right outside the door. He can do whatever he wants to you! Bitch, don’t drag us down when you go to hell…”
There was no time for grief; she had to survive.
She had to escape.
Jiang Zui grabbed the box and rushed out.
The rain poured down.
“Fuck, this is it. This is that bitch’s house!” Seven or eight men charged over, led by a stout, burly man with a bandage over his left eye.
He bared his teeth, gripping a club in his hand. “Damn it, we have to kill her today. How dare she hurt me!”
It was none other than Liu Rui Feng.
Right now, nothing was more important than staying alive.
The desire to survive drove her to run.
Jiang Zui wanted to live.
“Boss, I see her! That bitch is over there!” one of the lackeys spotted Jiang Zui.
She trembled with fear.
The physical disparity between men and women was ultimately too great. It was only a matter of time before they caught up with her.
The rain grew heavier, and Jiang Zui lost her way.
Thud.
She was knocked to the ground by a black car speeding toward her.
“Miss, are you alright?” A middle-aged man in uniform stepped out of the car, asking with a concerned expression.
Jiang Zui couldn’t care about anything else. She flipped herself upright, drew her short knife, and pressed it against the man’s chest.
“Let me get in the car, take me away!”
The middle-aged man’s face clearly showed a flicker of surprise, but he wasn’t panicked. “Miss, what are you…”
Jiang Zui couldn’t care about anything at all. She shouted loudly, “I’ll say it again, take me away! Otherwise, I’ll kill you!”
“Let her get in the car.”
A low, magnetic, and pleasant male voice came from inside the car.
