Chapter 227 The Situation is Complicated
"He really dotes on you. As long as you ask, he will definitely not stand idly by."
"You can't ignore me now. Even if you don't want to help me, you have to help!"
Hu Xinxin regretted it so much at this moment that her intestines turned green with regret.
She was really blind. Why did she choose a fool like Cheng Yingzi to do the job?
If she had simply hired some street thugs to attack Shen Yan earlier, she wouldn't be in such an embarrassing and uncomfortable situation today.
No matter who you look for, you shouldn't look for a loser like Cheng Yingzi who is stupid and has no background!
Now that she has made things so serious, she has to bear all the consequences in the end!
Hu Xinxin raised the corner of her mouth and sneered sarcastically: "Why should I help you?"
Cheng Yingzi had already anticipated this moment.
Ever since they decided not to associate with her anymore, she knew that she had become the abandoned person, someone who no longer needed even superficial contact.
But even though she had prepared for the worst, when she exposed this thin relationship with her own mouth and heard Hu Xinxin's rejection so confidently, the emotions that surged in her heart were still uncontrollable - it was a resentment that went deep into her bones, a surging wave of anger, grievance and a feeling of betrayal.
She snorted coldly and threatened in a cold tone: "You won't help me? Do you think you still have a choice now?"
"You have to help me!"
She emphasized each word, "If I'm caught, I'll tell the police immediately that this was all your idea—you were the one who ordered me to kill Chen Yan!"
"Do you remember the evidence? I've kept a lot of the money you gave me."
"I kept the money carefully and even wrote on the envelope - this is the money I took from you, specifically to use against Chen Yan."
"If you don't help me, even if I go to jail, I will make you go in with me!"
She approached step by step, her voice full of cruelty: "How dare you say you won't help!"
Hu Xinxin flew into a rage upon hearing this. She suddenly stood up from her chair and pointed at Cheng Yingzi, her fingers trembling with anger. "You——"
This time, Cheng Yingzi completely shed her hypocritical mask, sneered, and met her angry gaze without showing any weakness: "Besides, do you really think you still have the confidence to not help me?"
She continued in a sharp tone, "Huang Yide dotes on you so much, he probably has no idea that you're secretly supporting Rong Xiaoyong, that pretty boy, behind your back, right?"
"If you don't help me, I'll tell him—you're having an affair right under his nose, turning him, the eldest son of the Huang family, into a cuckolded bastard!"
"Let's see if he can still accept you willingly and tolerate the fact that you and Rong Xiaoyong have slept in this bed before!"
“Bang!”
With a crisp slap, Hu Xinxin suddenly raised her hand and slapped him hard!
The blow was so powerful, even with uncontrolled anger, that Cheng Yingzi's cheek twisted and she fell heavily to the ground, unable to recover for a long time.
Cheng Yingzi lowered her head and remained silent for a moment, but her mind flashed through everything she had experienced in the past few days like a movie - the job she had lost as the manor housekeeper, the days when she had suffered Chen Yan's cold eyes and humiliation, and the horrific scene of her willingly committing a crime and setting fire to cooperate with Hu Xinxin...
All this has completely torn her life into pieces, and now Hu Xinxin even dared to slap her, as if she were a slave to be trampled on and a chess piece to be discarded at will!
Cheng Yingzi slowly raised her head, her eyes burning with unwillingness and resentment.
She had long been tortured beyond recognition by this group of so-called "companions", and the most ironic thing was that they had the nerve to touch her.
She immediately stood up and slapped Hu Xinxin hard!
With a crisp "pa" sound, Hu Xinxin was slapped and staggered back onto the sofa.
Her head buzzed as if hit by a hammer, and she felt extremely dizzy. Stars appeared in front of her eyes and she couldn't tell the directions for a moment.
Cheng Yingzi grabbed her hair fiercely, her fingers entwined with the roots, and violently pulled her head towards her, her face ferocious, "Why did you hit me?"
"I gave you face, didn't I? Do you think I'm afraid of you?"
"Just understand, I've completely given up everything now, and you still want to save yourself? Dream on!"
"The worst that can happen to me is that I'll go to jail, but I'm telling you, once I'm caught, you won't be able to live a peaceful life either. No one of you will be able to escape!"
After Cheng Yingzi gave a warning with gritted teeth, she suddenly pushed Hu Xinxin away. The latter fell onto the sofa without any resistance, almost sinking into the cushions.
Hu Xinxin covered her visibly swollen cheek, her face full of shock and anger. She glared at the woman in front of her fiercely, her eyes seeming to spit fire.
Cheng Yingzi stood up, walked to her side with a sneer, then grabbed Hu Xinxin's bag and took out a stack of banknotes from it.
She took a quick look and found that there was only more than 2,000 yuan in cash, not even enough for 5,000 yuan.
He was immediately furious, his teeth itching with anger, "The money is not enough, give me another three thousand!"
Hu Xinxin hadn't recovered from the shock of the slap. The pain on her face hadn't subsided yet, and her eyes were still filled with fear and panic. She spoke with difficulty, "Where did I get so much money? I really don't have..."
Upon hearing this, Cheng Yingzi snorted coldly and stared at her fiercely, "No money? Then go earn it! I'll come back to you tonight, and you must pay me the full three thousand yuan."
She narrowed her eyes, a sinister sneer curling up the corners of her mouth. "Hu Xinxin, don't have any bad ideas. As long as I leave this door, I've already left myself a lot of ways to escape."
"If you dare to touch me, no one will be able to escape, even if something happens to me. Just wait to go in and be my cellmate."
"Instead of sitting here and trying to be clever with me, why don't you quickly think of a way to get your Huang Yide to help me solve this problem."
"By the way, let's take care of the three thousand yuan issue."
She slowly stood up, looked down at Hu Xinxin, and said coldly, "I'm telling you, let him help me settle this matter, or you can raise the three thousand yuan. These two options are much more difficult for you than for me."
After saying that, Cheng Yingzi slowly stood up, without a trace of unnecessary expression on her face.
She gently opened the heavy wooden door of the box, making a slight creaking sound.
Then she took a firm step and strode out without hesitation, without looking back.
In the box, shortly after she left, the atmosphere suddenly became depressing.
Hu Xinxin slammed her fist on the wooden square table in the box, causing the unfinished tea on the table to sway slightly.
Her expression was gloomy, and her eyes were filled with anger and disbelief.
