Chapter 300 - He came
Xiong Zhi was not a fool. She knew from their words what they were going to do.
In her previous life, she had gotten scarred by this familiar incident.
After rebirth, she had sworn to herself that she would not let herself be wounded so deeply again.
In this lifetime, Linfeng always considered her as an innocent pearl that must be protected. Unbeknownst to him, she hid a darkness so deep that when unleashed, it would definitely transform her into a monster. Her hatred ran too deep into her soul.
She would kill everyone who dared to harm her again!
Everyone had their own bright and dark sides. This dark side of Xiong Zhi was what was driving her for revenge. It was her Pandora's Box.
Now, the forbidden box was being forcefully opened.
Xiong Zhi tried to control the psychotic madness brewing inside of her.
She heard footstep approach her. Faintly, she felt a shadow loom over her.
She could feel the disgusting presence of the man. Chills ran down her back.
"Oooh, she is truly beautiful. That skin..." the voice said lecherously. The man's scent was sickening.
Goosebumps started to rise all over her body.
"Hey, make it fast. I want to taste her too. "
"Such a pervert."
"Duh, whoever paid us for this was the most perverted one, ah. They even want to watch the video of a high school girl being r.a.p.ed."
"Isn't that what we all loved to do anyways?"
"Make it fast. We only have an hour left." The other man who was holding the camera impatiently urged the man who was looming over the high school girl.
"Yes, yes. Hehe, here I come, baby~"
Xiong Zhi heard the sound of belt being unbuckled.
This situation made her remember a memory she had already forgotten. Or rather, a memory she had buried deeply at the depths of her darkness, so as to never see it ever again.
Killing intent surged from within her, and her mind became chillingly calm.
She felt him untie her feet.
Then, she felt a heavy weight press over her. She could hear the man's excited and disordered breathing.
It was as if she could 'see' a revolting man hovering on top of her, his face right above her.
The moment the man touched her clothes, Xiong Zhi instantaneously moved and rammed her forehead up towards the direction where she detected should be his face.
Luckily, her head hit his face hard.
"Aargh!" The man exclaimed in pain. He distanced himself from the girl below him and held his chin. Due to the unexpected head butt, he ended up biting his tongue hard. He tasted blood and pain overwhelmed his senses for a moment.
"What the f%$#! She's awake!"
Even if she could not see anything, she ran away from their direction towards the area where she felt the air seemed to come from and shouted with all her might.
"Help! Linfeng, Help!"
"Stop her!"
"Linfeng! Linfeng!"
A hand caught her waist and dragged her back into hell.
Amidst her screams, the voice said with suppressed anger, "Little lady, although I don't care for your life, but you might want to know that you are just about to kill yourself."
The direction Xiong Zhi ran into was the partially opened window. They were in an abandoned house in a very isolated place at the outskirts of the town. This was a two-floor old wooden house. They were at the upper floor as the first floor was just too dirty and full of trash and mice. Since they were supposed to do the 'deed', they naturally chose the much cleaner second floor, although it was still dirty.
If this missy fell from the window which seemed like it would break with a bit of force, she would surely die of the impact as the ground was covered with sharp rocks and moss.
Xiong Zhi desperately struggled out of the hold. She blindly stomped at the captor's feet hard. When she felt the hands on her waist loosen up, she ran again to another direction while screaming on the top of her lungs.
"Help! Help! Linfeng!" Xiong Zhi kept shouting. "Linfeng!!!"
"It's useless!" A pair of hands caught her once more, tighter.
Then the man caught her face and slapped her hard.
That slap was too hard that it made her ears ring for a long time.
Another memory resurfaced.
If these men could see her eyes, they would be scared off by the madness within them.
Xiong Zhi tasted the familiar metallic taste of blood in her mouth. She spat it out at the direction of the man, and it happened to land directly on his face. Even if she could not see past the blindfold, she could feel them with her heightened senses.
The man wiped the spit on his face. He finally was really angered.
"You've done it," he said menacingly. He was about to slap her again when Xiong Zhi spoke.
"Heh~ Come on, slap me. Slap me so hard like you wish I was dead," she said scathingly. "If I come out alive from here, I am not going to stop until I find you. I will make you suffer a humiliation a hundred times worse than what you gave me. Try me. You just offended the heir of the Xiong family."
Xiong Zhi was not only talking about this man but also of the people behind them.
She said it with firm confidence and conviction that it made the man in front of her halt.
...In a way, she was right. They still planned to return her alive, because she could not be killed given her current status, or else, more trouble would come later.
The only order was to play with her and humiliate her with evidence. Not to mention, the Xiong member who had called them assured that he would help them avoid pursuit.
But once this Young Miss recovered, she might really just do what she had sworn and hunt them down.
The hell, weren't women from the upper circle supposed to hide this from prying eyes and not make it any bigger? She should be worried about her reputation and try her best to hide it as much as possible.
But from the girl's words...
The man hesitated for a moment, but they had already accepted the request. With the added fact that it was a rather powerful Xiong family member who stood behind them, and that this girl could not see their faces at all, he finally calmed down.
She was just bluffing, he thought.
He snorted.
"Min Dao, do it now. Just tie her four limbs down and be done with it."
The man who got hit on the chin earlier came towards Xiong Zhi.
In the darkness, she could hear his footsteps. Her heart raced wildly. Although she had threatened them confidently, she was still afraid.
She did not want to have the same scar as in the past. The feeling of wanting to die but could not was a nightmare for her.
She knew that unless someone came to her rescue, she would be a goner. Her madness, rage, and unwillingness intertwined with her rising fear.
No, no more! Not anymore!
But she did not beg them, because it was useless. It was something she learned from experience. She viciously promised to herself that whoever was behind this would not go unscathed.
Someone who hated her so much that they wanted to ruin her in this way...
There were only two people she knew.
She was unwilling to resign to this fate!
As the man held her arm, she struggled and kicked.
She shouted once again. Desperation was evident in her voice.
"Help!!! Linfeng!!! Linfeng!!!"
"No one can hear you! Save your voice!" The man was having difficulty in restraining her.
"Linfeng!!! Linfeng!!!!"
She did not stop shouting. He would come. She knew he would come. He had said before that he would never be late again. He had promised...
"I don't care who that is, but no one is going to help you! Stay still!"
Xiong Zhi felt herself pushed down. She gritted her teeth and changed her tactics. "Change your mind and I will let it pass. Tell me who ordered you! "
The men did not buy it. "Too late for that, missy. We know how great your family is. That's why we are not going to tell you a thing," the other man said.
"If you don't want to make it painful, you better be more obedient!"
…Beasts! I'll kill you all!!!
"You just lost your chance," Xiong Zhi said with a trembling voice. Hopelessness began to envelop her as she felt their disgusting hands tore at her clothes.
Her tears fell from her eyes.
The blindfold covering her eyes was wet. Yes, she was crying silently even as she tried to push her fear down.
She felt unwilling! Anger, disgust, fear, madness... She was slowly being consumed by the emotions she had long locked in her Pandora's Box. The memories she wanted to forget overlapped with this very moment.
No! No! No!
She did not want to repeat her doomed fate!
Linfeng... Linfeng...
Like how the previously weak Xiong Zhi prayed for Linfeng to come to her rescue in her past life as the beast ravaged her...
Xiong Zhi still wished for him to save her.
He will come... This time, he would come...
He had promised...
She whimpered and struggled against the revolting touches of the man.
Bang! Crash!
There was a loud ramming sound at the door, followed by a loud crash.
"Zhi'er!"
Linfeng's worried shout echoed within the dilapidated house.
It rang clearly in her ears.
Her tears poured out, soaking the blindfold, overflowing down to her cheeks and ears.
He came!
This time, he really came.
