Chapter 385 Please Save Me "I..."
A faint, hoarse syllable was squeezed out from Bai Wei's chapped lips.
Her voice was too soft and was instantly drowned out by the sound of the wind and the footsteps of the trainees marching in formation.
Nobody paid any attention to her.
Bai Wei panicked completely.
She used all her strength, her face flushed, and almost tore the words out of her throat:
"……Wait a moment!"
This time, the sound was loud enough.
The group that was about to leave stopped, and everyone's eyes were once again focused on her.
Facing hundreds of onlookers, Bai Wei felt as if her face was being scraped off layer by layer with a knife.
She bit her lower lip hard, her mouth filled with the metallic taste of blood and the stench of mud. She stared at the calm, collected figure on the shore, each word seeming to be squeezed out from between her teeth.
"...Comrade Su An..."
She had never used such a humiliating tone to call anyone's name in her entire life.
Su Tang seemed to only just notice her, turning her head leisurely, raising an eyebrow slightly, and asking with feigned surprise, "Comrade Bai Wei, did you call me? Is there something you need?"
This completely innocent look almost made Bai Wei spit out a mouthful of blood.
Is something wrong? I'm fucking drowning, do you think I'm okay?!
Bai Wei was trembling with anger, but she dared not retaliate. She knew that her life was now in this woman's hands.
She took a deep breath, closed her eyes, and suppressed all her resentment and bitterness. When she opened her eyes again, they were filled with tears, making her look pitiful.
"Comrade Su An... I... I was wrong..." Her voice trembled with tears, sounding aggrieved and helpless. "I was wrong just now, I misunderstood you... Please, please, you're so magnanimous, don't hold it against me... Please, help me... take me out..."
After saying these words, Bai Wei felt as if all her strength had been drained away.
She had never been so humble in her entire life.
The surroundings were deathly silent.
Everyone was stunned by Bai Wei's 180-degree change in attitude.
One second she was cursing like a madwoman, the next she was crying and begging for mercy.
That's an incredibly fast change of expression!
Gao Kai spat out in disdain and muttered under his breath, "What a damn shameless guy, always so flexible and unyielding."
Watching her superb acting, Su Tang knew, of course, that Bai Wei wasn't genuinely remorseful. Behind those tears lay a poisoned scheme and resentment.
However, that's not important.
This is the result she wanted.
What I wanted was for her to lower her proud head in front of everyone.
Su Tang showed a perfectly measured look of embarrassment and hesitation. She glanced at Instructor Lei Kuan, whose expression was unfriendly, and then at Bai Wei, who was pitifully lying in the mud. She sighed.
"Sigh, alright." She nodded reluctantly, feigning a soft heart. "After all, they are revolutionary comrades; we can't just stand by and watch them die. Don't you all agree?"
"Yes—!" Gao Kai led the cheers, drawing a chorus of laughter in agreement.
Bai Wei was so angry at the sound of laughter that she almost ground her teeth to powder.
She knew Su An was doing it on purpose. She wanted to use this method to trample on her last shred of dignity.
"Since Comrade Bai Wei has taken the initiative to admit her mistake, we can't just stand by and do nothing."
Su Tang, displaying a magnanimous attitude of "repaying evil with kindness," turned and waved to Gao Kai and the others.
"Everyone, please take this opportunity to do it in the same way."
"Alright! Just you wait and see, Teacher Su!"
