Gao Kai agreed loudly, a mischievous grin on his face, and immediately called his brothers to carry the buckets over.
They looked so enthusiastic; anyone who didn't know better would think they were going to receive an award.
As Bai Wei watched them approach, a sense of foreboding rose in her heart.
Sure enough, this time, Gao Kai and his group were far less "gentle" than when they rescued Zhang Kui earlier.
Oops, my hand slipped!
Whether intentionally or unintentionally, Gao Kai stumbled, and with a "splash," most of the full bucket of water splashed directly onto Bai Wei's face!
The icy muddy water, mixed with grass roots and unknown insects, poured over Bai Wei, giving her a thorough chill.
"Cough! Cough cough cough!"
Bai Wei was choked so badly that it felt like mud had filled her nose, and the burning sensation made her tears stream down her face.
She was about to unleash a torrent of abuse when she heard Gao Kai apologize with an "innocent" expression: "Oh dear, Comrade Bai Wei, I'm so sorry! The mud was so slippery, I lost my footing. Are you alright?"
You call this nothing?!
Bai Wei was so angry she felt like her lungs were about to explode, but what could she say? The other party had already "apologized." She could only swallow her anger and squeeze out a few words through gritted teeth: "...It's...okay."
However, this is just the beginning.
"Oops, my foot slipped too!"
"My goodness, this bucket is too heavy!"
Next, the male soldiers who came over to pour water seemed to have made a pact to "slip their hands" one by one.
"Splash—"
"Splash—"
Bucket after bucket of muddy water came from all directions, precisely covering Bai Wei's head.
In the end, Bai Wei had completely given up resisting, her whole body stuck in the mud like a wooden stake, letting the dirty water wash her from head to toe again and again.
She could no longer distinguish whether the water flowing down her face was mud or tears of humiliation.
The trainees on the shore watched this scene, wanting to laugh but not daring to laugh too loudly, their shoulders shaking as they tried to hold it in.
Qin Ye, standing on the high platform, witnessed everything. He could tell, of course, that Gao Kai and his group were deliberately setting a trap for them, but he said nothing.
For someone who tried to hurt his wife, this little lesson was too lenient for her.
After several buckets of water were poured in, the mud around Baiwei became mushy.
Su Tang had watched the show long enough before she spoke up: "Alright, you can pull now."
Xu Gaogui handed the bamboo pole over again.
Bai Wei had no strength left at this moment. She numbly gripped the bamboo pole like a puppet on a string.
The trainees on the shore exerted force, and a "pop" was heard, even louder than Zhang Kui's earlier sound.
Bai Wei was also "pulled out".
However, the way she was dragged ashore was much more pathetic than Zhang Kui's.
She lay sprawled on the ground, like a dead fish thrown ashore, covered in mud, motionless.
Every part of her body was clean. Dark brown mud covered her features, her hair was tangled in mud, and her training uniform clung tightly to her body, dripping with dark, dirty water.
Where is there even a trace of the aloof, proud, and meticulously groomed "goddess" of Battalion No. 3 in her appearance?
They're even worse off than beggars on the street!
She wanted to faint, but her mind was clearer than ever before. Every mocking word, every glance, was like a branding iron, deeply etched into her heart.
She closed her eyes, letting the tears of humiliation mingle with the mud and water and slide down her cheeks.
Su An, you wait.
I, Bai Wei, will remember the humiliation you inflicted upon me today. One day, I will make you pay a thousandfold!
