Chapter 0 Extra 6 Lai Xiang: "I won't seek death!"
Tang Jianye was still not satisfied, so he kicked the man a few more times before running over to support Lai Xiang. "Xiangxiang, are you okay? Are you hurt anywhere?"
Lai Xiang was trembling all over at this time. She shook her head and said, "I'm fine, but my legs are weak."
Tang Jianye simply picked up the man horizontally. When he reached the man, Tang Jianye put Lai Xiang down, tied him up with the rope he had just used to tie Lai Xiang, picked up Lai Xiang and hurried home.
Lying in Tang Jianye's arms, listening to his heartbeat, Lai Xiang gradually came back to her senses. Inexplicably, she felt much more at ease.
Liu Ting was still waiting at the door. She was very nervous and afraid that if she went out she would miss Lai Xiang again, so she didn't dare to leave. She didn't know how long she had been waiting when she saw Tang Jianye come back with Lai Xiang in his arms.
Liu Ting was horrified. She quickly opened the door and went out. "What's going on?"
"Grandma, let's go inside and talk." Tang Jianye carried Lai Xiang into the house first.
By the light of the kerosene lamp in the room, Tang Jianye could see Lai Xiang's appearance clearly. Her hair was disheveled, her face was bruised, and the corner of her mouth was bleeding. Tang Jianye felt the blood rushing to his body. He turned to leave but was grabbed by Lai Xiang.
"Tang Jianye, don't go!"
Liu Ting stood at the door, not knowing whether to go in or out. She turned and went to the outer room to boil some water.
Inside the room, Lai Xiang looked up at Tang Jianye, a look of suppressed pleading in her eyes. Tang Jianye felt as if his heart was being clenched, throbbing with pain. He couldn't help but step forward and hugged Lai Xiang tightly.
"Don't be afraid, I'm here."
Lai Xiang lay in Tang Jianye's arms, tears streaming down her face. She was terrified at the time; she had never imagined that someone like Er Laizi would stop her on the road.
He must have known her identity for a long time and had been eyeing her for a while. Lai Xiang delivered the pancake to the cowshed and walked back directly.
"Mom and Dad, it's too cold tonight. I won't stay any longer. Grandma is waiting for me at home."
"Hey, Xiangxiang, be careful." Wu Jinghua warned.
Lai Xiang smiled at her parents and said, "Don't worry, Mom. I can walk back this way with my eyes closed."
Lai Xiang walked back quickly, the cold wind blowing on her face no more gentle than in the cold winter. She wanted to go back and eat and get into bed quickly, it was really too cold these days.
Because she was familiar with the road, she didn't look around, so when a dark figure suddenly appeared from the side, she didn't see it. The figure came up quickly, hugged Lai Xiang's neck from behind, and covered Lai Xiang's mouth with his other hand. Then he pushed her into a snow pit on the side.
Lai Xiang was terrified. She struggled hard, but the difference in strength between men and women made it impossible for her to escape the man's shackles. When the man pushed her into the snow pit and tried to strip her clothes, Lai Xiang finally found the opportunity to use her knee to drive hard between the man's legs.
The man wanted to scream, but was afraid of attracting others, so he held his breath and slapped Lai Xiang twice. Lai Xiang wanted to open her mouth to beg for help, but the man had already prepared a rag and grabbed Lai Xiang's neck and blocked her mouth.
Lai Xiang scratched the man's face with both hands, leaving several burning bloody marks on his face. He was so angry that he hit Lai Xiang even harder. Lai Xiang felt her head buzzing, but she did not give up resisting.
Nothing could happen to her. She absolutely couldn't. She still had to take care of her parents, and she still wanted to have a future with that man. She couldn't give in. Absolutely not.
So, even though she was dizzy, she instinctively used her hands and feet to resist. The man tried to take off her pants several times but failed, and the angry man kept hitting Lai Xiang.
In winter, they all wore a lot of clothes, and Lai Xiang's cotton-padded jacket was thick. Although the man was very strong, Lai Xiang could still endure it. The man seemed to notice it, and he hit Lai Xiang's head and face more often.
"Damn, girl, you're really strong. Haha, I just want your strength. Come on, resist. It's pitch black here, and this place is remote. Sooner or later, I will get you."
Lai Xiang knew who the man was the moment he opened his mouth. He was a well-known bad boy in the village. Lai Xiang had never expected to be targeted by him. But admitting it was impossible.
"I'm telling you, just let me sleep with you. I'll marry you when I'm in a good mood. And from now on, you have to live a good life with me and give me more kids. Otherwise, I'll beat you every day!"
Lai Xiang slapped the man's face with his hands. Perhaps he was tired of struggling, so he took out a rope from his pocket and tied Lai Xiang's hands behind his back. If Tang Jianye had come a little later, Lai Xiang's pants might have been pulled down.
Tang Jianye patted Lai Xiang's back gently. The little girl in his arms twitched her shoulders. He knew she must be terrified. Tang Jianye's eyes were filled with coldness. Damn that man!
Lai Xiang cried enough and pulled out of Tang Jianye's arms. Facing Tang Jianye's concerned eyes, Lai Xiang realized belatedly that she felt a little embarrassed. "I'm sorry."
"Don't say sorry. If anyone should say anything, it should be me. I'm late." Tang Jianye said seriously.
Lai Xiang shook his head, "No, you came at the right time. If it weren't for you tonight, I might..."
Tang Jianye interrupted, "No, it's okay, it definitely won't happen."
Tang Jianye was terrified. He knew that if he hadn't come today, Grandma Liu might have rushed out to look for her, but he didn't dare to think about what would happen then.
Tang Jianye pulled Lai Xianglou into his arms again. "Lai Xiang, I'm sorry, I should have come earlier."
Lai Xiang shook his head, his voice muffled, "He must have been secretly watching me for a while. He knew when I was going to the bullpen, and only then did he take action because he had a clear route."
Tang Jianye's eyes grew even colder. Feeling that the little girl was no longer so cold, Tang Jianye half-knelt down and looked at Lai Xiang at eye level, "Are you still afraid?"
Lai Xiang's face flushed slightly, but of course, she had to ignore the bruises. "I'm not afraid anymore."
Tang Jianye nodded, "Grandma is boiling water. Drink some to warm yourself up. I'll be out for a while."
Lai Xiang grabbed Tang Jianye's arm and said, "Tang Jianye, don't break the law."
Tang Jianye's body stiffened for a moment, and Lai Xiang knew she was right. But Lai Xiang didn't want that to happen. She insisted, "Tang Jianye, let's take him to the police station tomorrow. If he tries to rape me, he'll be shot."
Tang Jianye couldn't bear it. The girl was so nice. Even if the mistakes were made by that man, there would still be many people saying all kinds of nonsense. He didn't want the girl to be criticized.
Lai Xiang seemed to know what Tang Jianye was thinking. She looked directly at him and asked, "Tang Jianye, do you dislike me?"
Tang Jianye's face turned cold, "Nonsense, I can't possibly dislike you."
Lai Xiang smiled, "Tang Jianye, I had thought it through at the time. Even if he succeeded, I would not give in. I would go to the Public Security Bureau to report him, and even if I never get married in this life, I would not commit suicide.
Because I still have my parents, they love me and I love them too. If I die, they will definitely be very sad. So, I am not afraid.
Tang Jianye was heartbroken. How could the little girl be so strong?
