Chapter 85: She Actually Dared to Die
Being forcefully kissed by a big star was a subtle feeling, but Tang Ze still pushed Li Linger away. “Are you sick? I don’t need you to be my woman.”
“No, you responded to me just now.”
Li Linger retorted.
“That was a man’s physiological reaction. Don’t be unreasonable. If I get angry, you won’t like it.”
Tang Ze’s face turned cold. Xi Meng quickly pulled Li Linger away. Acting like this will only make him unhappy.
Li Linger, startled by Tang Ze’s attitude, her tears falling uncontrollably. She had shamelessly kissed a man, her first kiss no less, begging him to take her with him, only to be ruthlessly rejected. Was her body worthless?
He had given her hope, only to crush it. It would have been better to let her wait for death…
She suddenly ran towards the door, flung it open, and rushed out, clearly intending to commit suicide.
“She’s probably like you.”
Tang Ze said, looking at Xi Meng.
His words made Xi Meng feel ashamed. Dying with dignity versus living in disgrace, she had chosen the latter, yet she had pretended to want to die. Thinking back, it was quite embarrassing.
Ye Qingyi and Sun Ting thought the same. They had all considered death, but when it came to it, they hadn’t dared.
Just as they thought Li Linger would stop, she jumped into the rain.
The people inside watched in disbelief. She actually jumped!
She had done what they hadn’t dared to do!
She would rather die than be Tang Ze’s woman.
Wow! The damn charm.
Li Linger, closing her eyes as she jumped, didn’t feel any pain, didn’t even feel the rain.
She slowly opened her eyes. Why was she still under the eaves? Hadn’t she jumped?
“Do you want to die that badly? Isn’t it better to wait for rescue here?”
Tang Ze said, smoking, standing behind her. I’m not a good person. A good girl like you shouldn’t fall so low.
Li Linger bit her lip and murmured, “Have you ever lost your parents?”
Exhaling a puff of smoke, Tang Ze said calmly, “I’m an orphan.”
Li Linger was taken aback and said softly, “I’ve lost my parents. As a daughter, I can only hide here and survive, unable to avenge them. It’s better to be reunited with them.”
“Heh, then why did you wait until now? Why didn’t you die earlier?”
Li Linger looked at the modified Maybach in the garage. “Because of you. You gave me hope for revenge. You can escape with those sisters, you must have your own means. And so many supplies, that car definitely can’t hold it all. And ordinary people wouldn’t have your hazmat suits.”
“You’re smart. I thought you were a silly, sweet girl like Bai.”
Li Linger turned to look at him and said seriously, “I can be a silly, sweet girl, as long as I can get my revenge.”
“Are you negotiating with me?”
Tang Ze frowned. He had thought Li Linger was helping them without any ulterior motives. It seemed she had her own agenda.
“Yes.”
He lifted her chin and sighed. “To be honest, you’ve disappointed me a little.”
“I’m not a big star anymore. I have no backing. The only thing I have is this body. What those sisters can do, I can do too.”
“You figured it out?”
“Those sisters have to nod at you before they can even eat. It doesn’t feel like a normal relationship between a man and his girlfriends, more like a relationship between a superior and his subordinates.”
Tang Ze smiled. He had underestimated her powers of observation. She had guessed most of it correctly.
“Are you so sure you can avenge your parents? What if you can’t? Won’t you have wasted your body?”
“It’s better than waiting to die. Besides, business always has its risks and rewards.”
“Heh, you have a point.”
Li Linger’s nails dug into her flesh. She whispered, “So, have we reached a deal?”
“We haven’t inspected the goods yet. How can we have a deal?”
“I’m clean. No one has touched me.”
Li Linger gritted her teeth, surprised she could say such shy, embarrassing words.
Tang Ze chuckled. Everyone here claims it’s their first time. He leaned closer and sniffed. “A bit of an odor. I like women who smell good. If I inspect the goods like this, I’ll have to return them.”
“I… I… I wanted to take a shower, but there’s no water…”
As she spoke, her neck flushed. Who didn’t want to be a fragrant girl?
“There’s water now. You can go and wash yourself.”
“Okay, I’ll go now. I’ll wait for you in the master bedroom on the third floor.”
With that, she ran inside, her head bowed. She had just said the most shameful words of her life. But for revenge, what was that?
Watching her run inside, Tang Ze flicked his cigarette butt. So from the moment he entered, she had been plotting.
As he had thought, there were no simple-minded people in this world anymore, and no one helped for no reason. Everyone had their own agenda, even Li Linger.
He was happy to have a big star like her, but also unhappy.
Sigh, I’ll inspect the goods first.
He walked inside, and Sun Ting immediately gave him a ninety-degree bow. “Congratulations, Master.”
Ye Qingyi, An Bai, and Xi Meng also bowed and said sweetly, “Congratulations, Master.”
“I really suspect you’re the ones corrupting others.”
Tang Ze felt Li Linger had changed too quickly. There had been no signs before.
“We didn’t! Absolutely not!”
“We’re just purely congratulating Master on acquiring another beauty.”
“Another one to share the burden.”
“…”
Half an hour later, Tang Ze went to the master bedroom and saw Li Linger on the bed, shivering.
“Don’t you know how to turn on the air conditioner?”
He picked up the remote and turned it on, setting the heat to maximum. He also turned on the lights.
“The power is on?”
Li Linger exclaimed.
Tang Ze shook his head and sat on the edge of the bed. “I just got the generator working. I didn’t want to at first, because if the lights in your villa came on, the people around would definitely come and cause trouble.”
Hearing his concern, she felt a warmth in her heart, but she also smiled wryly. “Your car is parked there, it’s already a problem. After you leave, I probably won’t survive for long.”
“Are you blaming me?”
Li Linger slowly lowered her head.
“Look up.”
She slowly raised her head and looked at his aggressive eyes, her cheeks flushing.
“It’s indeed a beautiful face. I can barely accept the goods.”
His fingers touched her soft lips.
Hearing this, Li Linger breathed a sigh of relief. But was it really so “barely”? Although she wasn’t a big star anymore, she was still proud of her face.
“Now you can kiss me.”
“Huh?”
She exclaimed. Shouldn’t the man be the one to initiate?
