Chapter 55: Ah, It Hurts!
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Zhang Peng staggered back to his own home from Ye Xingchen’s house.
Sun Min had already cooked the meat that Zhang Yi had given her. The soup and meat was barely enough for a few people to share. At least the light yellow fat in the meat had replenished their meager diet over the past few days.
“You’re back, All Peng. I just cooked. Come and eat.”
Ma Chaowen and Liang Zhichao were already surrounding the pot with lifeless eyes. Among everyone, Chu Yao was the most excited.
Finally, there was meat to eat! Chu Yao’s eyes lit up as she stared at the few large pieces of meat that had sunk to the bottom of the pot.
Zhang Peng ignored Sun Min. He entered the villa and went straight to the second floor, rushing to the room where Chen Rou’er was locked.
“All! Get lost! Get lost!”
Chen Rou’er’s hands were chained up and she was curled up in the corner of the bed.
Zhang Peng’s eyes were bloodshot as he leaned on the bed with one knee and stared at Chen Rou’er as he spoke sinisterly.
“Rou’er, will you marry me?”
Chen Rou’er’s eyes were filled with disgust. A rancid smell was already seeping out from Zhang Peng’s bandages.
“Ugh…Zhang Peng, get lost! Why is your body so smelly?”
Chen Rou’er was just short of showing her disdain on her face. Looking at Zhang Peng’s face that was leaning closer, Chen Rou’ er frowned, pinched her nose, and stepped on Zhang Peng’s face.
“Go away! Go away! 1 don’t like this!”
Zhang Peng looked at Chen Rou’er’s resistance and felt an indescribable feeling in his heart.
One had to know that if it wasn’t for Chen Rou’er, he wouldn’t have become like this.
Zhang Peng gave all his supplies to Chen Rou’er, including food and clothes. He was wrapped in a tattered and old quilt in the house, shivering with hunger while wearing old clothes. However, he gave all the best food and a few sets of warm new clothes to Chen Rou’er.
He was now covered in injuries, and it was all because of Chen Rou’er that he became like this.
But what about Chen Rou’er?
She even resisted his approach. Just because he asked her if she was willing to marry him, she began to beat him up.
Zhang Peng grabbed Chen Rou’er’s kicking foot and pressed it down.
Since he couldn’t get her even after giving so much, he might as well destroy her!
Everyone downstairs had heard the commotion, but they were all focused on eating meat. No one cared about what was happening here.
“All! Help! You stink! Help! Zhang Peng, get lost! B*tch!”
“Get lost! Don’t come over, you cheap dog! Go to hell! Go to hell! Don’t come over!”
“You… You actually called me a cheap dog?”
Zhang Peng’s face was filled with heartbreak and disbelief, followed by anger. He was flustered and exasperated. He rolled up his sleeve and pulled off the gauze that had been loosely wrapped around his arm.
“Stinky, right? Haha, a cheap dog, right?”
Zhang Peng laughed sinisterly. He stretched out his hand and grabbed the wound on his arm. He grabbed the rotten flesh and smeared it all over Chen Rou’er’s face!
“Haha, cheap dog, cheap dog, I am a cheap dog!”
Chen Rou’er was so choked up that her face was covered in tears. She shook her head in panic, her face smeared with rotten flesh.
“Pfft! Pfft!”
She didn’t know if it was an illusion, but she felt some of it at the corner of her mouth. Chen Rou’er kept opening her mouth to vomit, but when she took a breath, she only felt that her entire mouth and nose were filled with that thick stench. It was extremely disgusting, and it even made her gradually lose strength.
“I made you despise me for being a cheap dog. Now, I’ll smear the rotten meat of a cheap dog on your face. I’ll make you feel like your face is covered in the rotten meat of a cheap dog. Hahaha–”
Chen Rou’er’s eyes instantly turned lifeless, and she felt like she was better off dead than alive.
Zhang Peng’s side was a mess, and Zhang Yi’s side was not any better.
Zhang Yi had medicine on him, but not much. Before he recovered, he did not dare to go out at all, afraid that someone would hide in the dark and stab him again.
Ye Xingchen bit his spoon and replied to Lin Sijia’s message. “Okay, send me a message after it’s done.”
Lin Sijia gritted her teeth and replied with an “okay” before clearing all the chat records.
She knew that this was the chance Ye Xingchen had given her.
Two days passed quickly. Lin Sijia had already stayed in Zhang Yi’s villa for two days. She held her phone tightly and replayed what Ye Xingchen had said to her in her mind. Then, she carefully put her phone in her pocket and walked out of the room.
“I’m hungry. When are we eating today?”
Zhang Yi, who was sitting in the living room, looked up at her.
“Why? 1 thought Doctor Lin was a fairy princess from the heavens who only drinks dew and doesn’t eat. So Doctor Lin is hungry too?”
Zhang Yi sneered and pointed to the kitchen. He still had a use for Lin Sijia, and he didn’t really want her to starve to death.
“Go and see for yourself. I think it’s almost done.”
Lin Sijia nodded, took a deep breath, and turned to go into the kitchen.
The kitchen was covered in blood.
The stench was mixed, and even in the extremely cold weather, it still emitted waves of stench.
Lin Sijia frowned and gritted her teeth as she endured the discomfort in her heart and ran to the hot pot.
“Can we eat now? Can 1 have a taste first?”
Lin Sijia’s face was full of eagerness. She really looked like a starving person.
The people behind her ignored her as if they had acquiesced to her actions.
Lin Sijia scooped up a spoonful and was about to put it into her mouth when she stared at the kitchen door and the person behind her from the corner of her eye.
“It’s so hot. Why is there no taste? Did you forget to add salt?” Lin Sijia shook out some powder from her sleeve and sprinkled it into the soup. She stirred the soup with a spoon, pretending to scoop out a piece of meat to eat.
“Doctor Lin, why are you so spoiled? We haven’t even added salt. It’s already good that we have some meat to eat.”
Zhang Yi’s voice came from the kitchen door. Lin Sijia was so frightened that her hands trembled and even the spoon almost fell into the pot.
“Forget it, this meat doesn’t seem to be cooked yet. Call me when you’re done.”
Lin Sijia’s palms were sweaty. Seeing that the powder had melted into the soup the moment Zhang Yi stepped into the kitchen, she heaved a sigh of relief and replaced the lid.
“How much longer? Can you hurry up? I’m so hungry.”
Lin Sijia pretended to be slightly annoyed and smacked her lips. She brushed past Zhang Yi and left the kitchen. She was so nervous that her legs were trembling.
This was the first time Lin Sijia had drugged someone. Although it wasn’t poison, the thrill still made her scalp tingle.
Of course, Zhang Yi wasn’t completely unguarded against Lin Sijia. It was just that he didn’t expect Lin Sijia to actually drug the precious food at this time..
