Chapter 207 - Back to Hell

Chapter 207 Back to Hell

Tang Xia instantly pretended to be very shocked. The bunch of girls who had failed because of Li Xianxian’s distraction all turned and waited to see Tang Xia’s bad outcome.

Li Xianxian did not expect her to make a mistake at this moment either. She did not even respond to her various attempts to distract her.

She had done everything she could, but Tang Xia would not budge at all. She was like a statue. Although Li Xianxian had been really frustrated earlier, now…

Upon seeing Tang Xia bump into the bell so easily, Li Xianxian felt as happy as if she had won the lottery. She really wanted to run over and cheer. She looked at Chu Tianjiao subconsciously.

Chu Tianjiao was sitting in his room, drinking wine and watching Tang Xia’s performance with satisfaction. However, he suddenly frowned. This was obviously not the result he wanted to see. The maid beside him refilled his wine glass.

Chu Tianjiao glared at her slightly and placed his wine glass down. For some unknown reason, he was suddenly in a bad mood.

When Li Xianxian saw Chu Tianjiao’s current state, she did not dare do anything that would cross the line. She looked at Tang Xia sarcastically. “Huh? Wouldn’t it be better if you stayed in your room obediently? Why must you come and join in the fun?”

Tang Xia looked at Li Xianxian as she crossed her arms and laughed at her like a winner. Although she really wanted to dash forward and make her stop talking, everything was still going according to her plan. Thus, she could not act rashly.

La Chapelle, who stood aside, instantly did not know what to do. After all, she had only succeeded and escaped from this hell because of Tang Xia.

However, in order to help her, Tang Xia did not make it. La Chapelle really did not know what to do.

Upon seeing Li Xianxian ridicule Tang Xia, La Chapelle, who was instantly annoyed, fought back. “You didn’t even play the game. How would you know how difficult it was?”

Li Xianxian saw that La Chapelle was acting a little strange and walked towards her slowly. “I do want to play, but she insisted on joining. Huh? Are you speaking for her because she offered you help just now?”

La Chapelle was dumbfounded. She instantly felt embarrassed, as if her thoughts had been exposed.

Li Xianxian could tell that she was right just by looking at her expression. She suddenly smiled and got close to her ear slowly. “Have you forgotten? The person who forced Tang Xia to take off the gown…”

Hot air blew against her neck. La Chapelle instantly felt her pores tightening. She wanted to push her away but was so distracted by Li Xianxian’s presence that she did not dare to do anything.

“… was you.”

La Chapelle suddenly pushed her away. However, Li Xianxian’s words hit right where she was hurting.

La Chapelle admitted that she was not a good person. However, right now, she was indeed grateful to Tang Xia for helping her. She just wanted to repay her. This had nothing to do with profit or benefits.

Li Xianxian was pushed two steps back. She suddenly let out a peal of cold laughter. She stood still as she said, “Why? Was I right? Are you angry?”

Tang Xia watched the scene unfold with a cold gaze. She really admired Li Xianxian’s ability to turn and twist facts. Tang Xia had learned a lesson before. Upon seeing La Chapelle being controlled by her, there was indeed no doubt anymore.

Tang Xia turned around to look at Chu Tianjiao. When she saw his sullen expression, Tang Xia smiled internally. It seemed like everything was going according to plan.

As everyone was bickering back and forth, Chu Tianjiao suddenly pushed open the door with a loud bang. The whole room fell silent immediately.

Tang Xia also remained silent as she watched Chu Tianjiao walk towards her slowly with a cold expression. However, she did not show her emotions on her face. She only lowered her head and trembled slightly, pretending that she was afraid, as if she was waiting for Chu Tianjiao to punish her.

Li Xianxian scoffed at Tang Xia’s terrified look and instantly found it very stress-relieving. “You can’t blame me for this.”

The bunch of girls behind her who had failed had the urge to go up to Li Xianxian and drag her to hell with them. If it had not been for her, they might not have lost!

However, they could not possibly do that. They could only glare at her angrily. So what if she noticed? Those who belonged in hell could not run away. Ha ha…

Clap, clap, clap!

As everyone was focused on their thoughts, Chu Tianjiao suddenly clapped while he walked. Everyone was instantly awakened by his claps. They all turned to look at him uniformly.

They saw him standing in front of Tang Xia, suddenly giving her an extremely sinister smirk. His eyes were semi-closed, like the Cheshire Cat in Alice in Wonderland. He was mysterious, strange, and scary.

“You’re interesting.”

Tang Xia raised her brow. What did that mean? She turned around and looked at him. Both of them were looking each other in the eye. Chu Tianjiao raised his brow and smiled suddenly.

Indeed, Tang Xia was different from everyone else here. She was calm and silent. On the outside, she was like a quiet white Lycoris Radiata. However, on the inside, she was like the vast universe. One had the desire to guess, imagine, and get closer and closer to her.

One would then discover more about her and find her even more interesting.

“But you lost.”

Tang Xia suddenly lowered her head in silence and went back to her previous state. Chu Tianjiao looked at her, his expression slowly fading.

He cried out loudly, “Come and take them to hell!”

As he spoke, a bunch of maids came running over. The girls who had failed instantly acted like ducks who were being chased away. They ran around terrified and kept shouting.

“I don’t want to! I don’t want to!”

Tang Xia could not help but roll her eyes. The scene before her was chaotic. Suddenly, a maid stood in front of her and pulled her away directly. Tang Xia did not object. She allowed herself to get pulled away.

Chu Tianjiao’s gaze deepened as he watched her get pulled away. He turned around decisively and walked out of the room.

Li Xianxian was just about to approach him and tell him something, yet things became awkward when he left. After taking a step forward, she did not know if she should continue moving forward or take a step back.

Tang Xia passed by Li Xianxian and suddenly smiled at her. Li Xianxian was startled by Tang Xia. Had she gone dumb because she was scared of hell?

Tang Xia grabbed onto Li Xianxian’s arm suddenly. The maid was taken aback when she could not pull Tang Xia any longer. “Li Xianxian, remember this. Your turn will come.”

Then, she let go of her arm and let the maid pull her away.

To this day, Li Xianxian had yet to recover from Tang Xia’s gaze and the words she’d said before leaving. That gaze had been like God’s gaze when he looked down on all living things.

Her words had been like a warning from God. She did not know where Tang Xia’s confidence had come from, but for some reason, she got scared and believed her…

In the blink of an eye, she was sent to the door of hell. The corners of Tang Xia’s lips curled up slightly. When she turned around and observed her surroundings, she noticed that there was a camera in the room. It was still in that position, just like she had thought.

Although the maid pushed Tang Xia gently, her push was too forceful. Tang Xia tripped and almost fell.

She saw that Haidala was still at the corner. She suddenly smiled at her and waved her hand. Haidala obviously did not reciprocate the friendliness. She dashed forward and attacked her. “Cut the nonsense!”

She pressed Tang Xia on the floor and started to beat her up. Haidala’s stick hit Tang Xia and forced her to kneel on the ground.

Tang Xia covered her head. After all, she could not get hit in the most important area. She was going for the most physically painful plan, but she could not become handicapped.

Even though the other areas that Haidala hit hurt a lot, Tang Xia still smiled to herself. She glanced at Haidala, who was inexplicably shocked by her gaze. She thought that Tang Xia was provoking her, so she hit her even harder.

Tang Xia rolled her eyes. Why was this person behaving like this? She only glanced at her, yet she kept hitting her abdomen. The abdomen was the softest part of the body. Thus, her organs were in great pain after being hit.

All of a sudden, when Haidala’s stick landed on her abdomen again, Tang Xia passed out.

Haidala was so shocked that her hand froze. The stick was less than a centimeter away from Tang Xia’s abdomen.

Haidala quickly knelt down to check on her and her body coincidentally covered the camera. Just as Haidala got closer to Tang Xia’s face…

Suddenly, Tang Xia opened her eyes. Haidala got scared and fell backward. Tang Xia grabbed onto her directly at an angle that was naturally not captured by the camera.

Haidala was just about to say something, but Tang Xia spoke first. “Do you want to get out of here?”

Haidala was obviously shocked by her words. She stared at her with her eyes open wide. Her body froze completely, but she reacted very quickly.

“Huh, what are you talking about? How is that possible? Chu Tianjiao guards this place very strictly. Besides, based on this place’s geographical features, escaping would be as hard as flying into the sky!”

However, Tang Xia suddenly smiled. “I only need you to listen to me.”

Haidala fell silent. Tang Xia knew that she was hesitant. Haidala did not know if she should listen to the woman before her. However, she did not want to stay here.

Besides, she was a girl. Why was she doing a hangman’s work in a place called hell? She was really like an object that had been placed here. She was sick of it already!

Could she trust this woman before her, though? As she looked at Tang Xia’s determined gaze, for some reason, she felt like she was trustworthy.

Haidala stood up suddenly. Tang Xia was a little nervous. She was unsure if this bad-tempered person wanted to form an alliance with her or not. She had done everything she could to come here just to find Haidala.

While Tang Xia was still speculating, Haidala kicked her in the abdomen. Tang Xia, who was shocked by the sudden attack, almost opened her eyes. Luckily, her reaction was fast, so she kept her eyes shut tight.
