124 Biting the tongue to self-harm
Lu Qiheng smiled bitterly.
"Liar, do you want to deceive me too?"
His eyes were red.
"You all want to deceive me. My biological mother lied to me, saying that if I behaved well, I wouldn't be beaten or go hungry. What a pity, you are such a liar..."
"My adoptive parents said they would take me to the amusement park, but they sold me to a human trafficker..."
“Now you want to lie to me too…”
Su Tang's facial features wrinkled together in discomfort.
"I didn't lie to you. If you don't believe me, go ask Jiang Hancheng yourself."
Lu Qiheng had a smile on his face.
"It's okay, I've already asked someone to invite him, he'll be here soon."
After Lu Qiheng left, Su Tang tried hard to wake herself up, but she couldn't resist the effects of the drug.
My whole body felt like it was on fire, and my consciousness was floating on the scalding sea, like countless ants gnawing at my sanity.
She wanted to scream, but could only let out broken sobs.
In the darkness, I heard the door being pushed open again.
"Su Tang?"
Footsteps approached quickly, and the flashlight swept across her curled up body.
When the light fell on her flushed face and her torn collar, Jiang Hancheng took a breath.
"Su Tang, what's wrong with you?"
He squatted down and wanted to touch her, but was shocked by her hot skin and retracted his hand.
"Fever?"
Su Tang shook his head and bit his lower lip tightly.
"Go away! Leave me alone..."
Her voice was so soft that Jiang Hancheng didn't hear it clearly and obviously misunderstood her struggle.
Trying to help her up, the moment his palm touched her waist, Su Tang pounced on her.
Su Tang bit his neck,
"I... was drugged,"
Jiang Hancheng heard it clearly this time.
"Su Tang, listen to me, I can't take advantage of someone's misfortune."
Su Tang nodded and panted,
"Send me to the medical team,"
Jiang Hancheng paused, wanting to pick her up, when he suddenly remembered something.
"No, going to the infirmary will expose you as a woman disguised as a man..."
It's exactly the same as the system said.
Despair poured down like ice water over her head. Looking at Jiang Hancheng's worried face so close to her, and seeing his life about to be ruined, she bit down cruelly.
A sharp pain came from the tip of the tongue, and blood instantly filled the mouth.
The smell of rust choked her throat, and she started coughing violently, with a trace of blood flowing from the corner of her mouth.
"Su Tang!"
Jiang Hancheng held her shoulders in fear.
"What are you doing?"
Su Tang pushed him away with force, and more blood flowed out from the corner of his mouth.
The pain briefly cleared her consciousness, and she uttered two words hoarsely:
"Let's go."
Jiang Hancheng froze in place.
Under the flashlight, he looked at Su Tang's bloody lips and her torn collar, and instantly understood something.
His face lost all color, and there was a storm in his black eyes.
Not anger, not fear, but something deeper and more painful.
The door of the equipment room was suddenly pushed open at this moment, and Lu Qiheng rushed in holding a live camera, but he froze completely when he saw Su Tang with blood all over his mouth.
The live camera fell to the ground.
The live broadcast room exploded.
【Isn’t it a good show? 】
[Is this a secret meeting between Jiang Hancheng and Su Tang? ]
What are these two doing?
[Oh my god, it seems like...]
[Something's wrong, Su Tang is bleeding from his mouth.]
【Oh my god, what happened? 】
Jiang Hancheng stood up slowly, his back to Su Tang, and spoke word by word in a voice so cold it could break ice:
"You did it."
Not a question.
Lu Qiheng stumbled back, his forehead dripping with sweat, and he suddenly understood something.
Su Tang bit his tongue to restrain himself from hurting himself? He rushed over in a hurry,
"Su Tang, how are you?"
Jiang Hancheng stopped him.
"You want to destroy me in this way? But why drag Su Tang into it?"
"You forced me to do this!" Lu Qiheng suddenly collapsed and yelled, his trembling fingers pointing at Su Tang.
"I just want you to break up. We have the same life, why should you be with her..."
Jiang Hancheng's fist smashed hard into Lu Qiheng's face, and the dull sound of flesh hitting flesh echoed in the empty room.
Lu Qiheng bumped into the equipment rack, and dust fell down.
"Just because of this?"
Jiang Hancheng grabbed his collar and said in a voice of suppressed anger,
"You drugged her? Used her as a pawn?"
Lu Qiheng coughed up blood foam and laughed, his eyes were crazy,
"The fans have seen it, you two can't be together anymore,"
"What did you take pictures of?" Jiang Hancheng sneered.
"How did you commit a crime when you were filmed? How did you film her biting her tongue rather than implicate me?"
This sentence woke Lu Qiheng up like a basin of cold water.
He turned his head blankly and looked at Su Tang, who was curled up on the mat and coughing up blood. The madness in his eyes was gradually replaced by horror.
"I... didn't know she would do that."
His lips trembled. "I didn't mean to hurt her... I just..."
Jiang Hancheng let go of him, as if throwing away something dirty.
He turned around and rushed towards Su Tang, took off his coat and wrapped her shivering body.
"Hold on, I'll take you to the medical team."
Su Tang finally felt relieved.
Lu Qiheng sat on the ground, choking with sobs.
"sorry······"
The door of the equipment room slammed shut behind him, blocking out Lu Qiheng's broken sobs.
When Su Tang woke up, the first thing he smelled was disinfectant.
The tip of my tongue was properly bandaged, but it still hurt.
The only sound in the ward was the ticking of instruments.
The sky outside the window is getting brighter,
Su Tang turned her head and saw Jiang Hancheng sleeping on the edge of the bed with a frown on his face and his hand still tightly holding hers.
The morning light fell on his eyelashes, casting a tired shadow.
The door was gently pushed open, and Yuan Chiye and Song Hanjun stood at the door. Both of them had red eyes, especially Yuan Chiye.
"Su Tang, Jiang Hancheng couldn't even protect you, this loser..."
He walked in, sobbing a little.
"Why didn't you tell me that you were a girl? They all knew it, why did you hide it from me?"
God knows how shocked Yuan Chiye was when he heard the news. He once thought he was gay.
The person he was thinking about was actually a girl, which was originally a very happy thing.
But when he thought about it, the sky was falling. They all knew about it, but he was the only one who was stupid and didn't know anything.
Su Tang doesn't care about him, woohoo, he's going to cry to death.
Su Tang opened her mouth, only to find that her tongue was injured and she couldn't speak at all. She had no choice but to take a pen and paper and write three words:
'sorry,'
Yuan Chiye pouted and wanted to say something, but Song Hanjun came with a thermos in his hand.
"Okay, the patient needs to rest, what are you arguing about?"
As he said this, he placed the thermos on the bedside table.
"I bought some yam porridge. It's good for the wound. No matter what, it needs to heal."
Su Tang nodded gratefully.
The scene was quite warm. Su Tang had already prepared for the worst. The system was silent, probably because it had given up hope.
Things are done, just give up completely. It's not like I haven't tried before. I don't have to dress up as a man, disguise myself, and fight desperately for a debut position. I don't have to work hard for fan points and to become popular all over the Internet. It feels good too.
