An Accident on the Lake (3)
Chapter 251: An Accident on the Lake (3)
"Nothing," Cang Ying retorted in a huff. Pointing at the man on the big boat, she added arrogantly, "Those vicious men kidnapped an affectionate couple and tied them to the pillar. I couldn’t just stand by, so I let go of them, which is the only reason why they came after me…"
"Bullshit," the man rebuked and glowered at her. "That woman is my wife. She’s having an affair with that man behind my back. I bumped into them shagging in the lotus clump, so I tied them up on just to teach them a lesson. Unexpectedly, you showed up, got in the middle of it and let go of those love rats…"
"That’s… That’s just impossible…" Cang Ying said in surprise, widening her eyes. "It seemed they loved each other so much…"
"Damn right they did because they just hooked up with each other." The man glowered at Cang Ying, looking as if he could devour her alive.
Cang Ying knitted her eyebrows and retorted, "You don’t even have any proof. I suppose you fancied her beauty, so you robbed her from her husband. But they resisted, so you got angry and abused them!"
"All due respect, just look at your face, even an old granny would refuse to marry you, let alone that pretty girl…"
Cang Ying cast a glance at the man’s tanned face, with a flicker of undisguised disdain in her eyes. At the sight of that, the man’s face turned grim. He whipped out a red brochure and smashed it on Cang Ying’s face before he shouted, "You twat, take a good look at our marriage certificate…"
Cang Ying curled herself up before the brochure swept past her hair and fell into the water. On the saturated red paper, two eye-catching names glittered under the sun…
Cang Ying avoided the sight of the brochure unnaturally, and said in an unconvinced tone, "Who knows if it’s truly yours…"
"Shut up, you bag of hair…" the man interrupted angrily. He reached out for a long sword, whose sharp blade shone with coldness under the sunlight.
It gave Cang Ying a start, so she asked in panic, "What are you gonna do?"
"You let go of my wife, so I need a new one now…" the man said fiercely, with coldness glittering in his eyes.
"How dare you! Do you know who I am? I am… Way out of your league…" Cang Ying scolded in panic, glowering at the man with burning eyes.
"Look at your ugly face. I wouldn’t marry you even if I could without any cost…" The man cast a glance at her with contempt and added,
Cang Ying was rendered speechless.
In front of her stood Murong Xue, whom the man had a crush on and wanted as the compensation for Cang Ying’s fault. Cang Ying was pleased to know she was safe for the moment…
When a touch of happiness surged up, Cang Ying also felt somewhat frustrated. Did he just imply that Murong Xue was prettier?
Cang Ying looked up slowly at Murong Xue when Murong said to the man with coldness on her pretty face and dark eyes, "She was to blame because she was the one who let go of your wife. Go get even with her, not me…"
All Murong Xue did in the clump was pick up a few lotus flowers and seeds. Who could she possibly provoke by doing that? Why did she get into trouble without any reason? It was just not her day…
"I don’t like her, I like you…" the man said arrogantly as he abruptly waved his big hand. "Get her, and you’ll all be rewarded!"
"Yes!" the villains replied in deep voices as they ran towards Murong Xue, smiling viciously with long whips and swords in their hands…
Murong Xue’s gaze turned sharp as she whipped out the paddle abruptly, and mercilessly hit the villains so hard that they had to plunge into the water…
The grim man said viciously, "You losers! Go get her…"
"Yes!" the villains replied successively. They swam to Murong Xue’s canoe and reached out for its edge…
With a cold smile on her face, Murong Xue’s beat the villains fiercely with all her strength.
"Ouch…" the villains yelled in pain and fell back in the water successively…
What a bunch of losers!
With a grim look, the man reached out for the table on the boat. The moment he threw it fiercely towards Murong Xue’s canoe, Murong narrowed her eyes and thumped it with the paddle. Consequently, both the table and the paddle were snapped and dropped into the lake in pieces…
The thump also gave Murong Xue a jolt, so she had to struggle to keep her feet. But the canoe started to shake as the surfacing men held onto the edge and struggled to climb onto it…
Murong Xue narrowed her cold eyes slightly, and was about to give them a kick. At this moment, a clear voice suddenly rang from behind, "Murong Xue, hang in there. I’ll go get help…"
Upon finishing her words, Cang Ying gave Murong Xue a fierce push towards the villains who then surrounded their canoe to prevent them from getting away.
Since the man liked Murong Xue, she should be the one to draw the villains’ attention and buy Cang Ying some time to escape and send her cousin to save Murong Xue. In this way, no one would get hurt…
Murong Xue threw Cang Ying a faint smile, and stretched her hand out to grab Cang by the shoulder while staring at her, "It was you who started it, so you should also be the one to draw their attention…"
On finishing her words, Murong Xue pulled Cang Ying abruptly and threw her slender body fiercely at the villains…
The villains avoided rapidly with a frown.
Murong Xue grabbed another paddle from the canoe, and rowed so quickly that it dashed forward like an arrow. Her casual warning spread as the wind blew, "Cang Ying, don’t worry. I’ll come back for you soon…"
Cang Ying was supposed to know that Murong Xue was completely capable to defeat the man and a dozen of incapable villains without any help. But Cang Ying lied that she would get help before pushing Murong Xue to the front so that she could get away. How evil of her to have done that!
Murong Xue saw no point in cleaning up the mess for such a merciless moron, so she left Cang Ying with the man so that they could settle the problem themselves…
Cang Ying fell onto the deck, which gave her immediate dizziness and tinnitus. She flamed with fury in her eyes, and felt the bone-contusion-like pain all over.
As she watched Murong Xue’s receding figure, she let out a cry with anguish, "Murong Xue…"
