Chapter 179: Chapter 180 You Don’t Stand a Chance
At that moment, a piercing voice rang out, “Because he’s finally gotten rid of us pests, he’s happy.”
Everyone turned toward the source of the voice, wondering who could be so tactless? Even if the instructor really felt that way, one shouldn’t just bluntly say it!
It was so embarrassing for them!
The speaker was none other than Chen Huaying, who had just been released from the solitary cell, with a timid Zhou Xuelian and Qin Cuifen standing beside her.
Everyone gaped at them, unable to believe that these three could have been confined together in a solitary cell.
What could have happened when the three of them were shut in there together?
Sheng Ning, with her backpack slung over her shoulder, arrived last from the dormitory area and walked past the trio. She immediately rushed forward, intending to hug Chen Huaying, but as soon as she got close, she leaped back.
“To think you could stink so badly even in the winter…” Sheng Ning had to admit she was impressed; surely two days in a solitary cell couldn’t result in one’s whole body reeking so badly?
In fact, Chen Huaying and the others were not supposed to be confined together, but since there were too many fools in the War Wolf Rescue Team, there weren’t enough solitary cells. So, the three were locked up together, which was intended to be a kind gesture as company could alleviate the oppressive atmosphere of the cell.
However, when they went to release them the next day, they found the three brawling wildly inside.
Enraged, Dai Bin kept them confined until now before finally setting them free.
Chen Huaying, fighting one against two, thoroughly defeated the other two. She herself was exhausted to death and drenched in sweat without a shower, it’d be strange if there was no stench coming from her.
The others smelled it too and kept their distance, covering their noses.
“Is it really that exaggerated?” Chen Huaying sniffed herself, feeling extremely good.
Of course, it wasn’t that bad; the atmosphere was just relaxed, and everyone joined in the mockery.
Liu Yilan had already boarded the truck, and hearing the commotion below, she stuck her head out and shouted, “Good heavens! Where did this little beggar come from? I can smell the stench from all the way up here.”
“Are you a dog, Liu Yilan?”
“Exactly! You guessed right; I am born in the year of the dog and I’m a year older than you,” Liu Yilan laughed heartily on the truck.
Yang Xiaoman tugged at her backpack, whispering, “Don’t provoke that tigress, careful she bites.”
Her voice was low, but everyone heard and burst into laughter.
Chen Huaying’s face changed colors, wishing she could drag Yang Xiaoman down and give her a sound beating. Qin Cuifen and Zhou Xuelian, standing with her, turned pale with fear.
During the two days of solitary confinement, apart from dealing with psychological stress and the worry of punishment, there was the humiliation brought by Chen Huaying, a mixture of fear and hate in the eyes of those who looked at her.
Sheng Ning clearly saw the venom in Qin Cuifen’s eyes and moved closer, standing in front of her.
“What do you think you’re doing?” Qin Cuifen instinctively backed away.
“You no longer have a chance, you’ll never be able to turn the tables,” Sheng Ning said with icy eyes, her tone resolute and confident.
“Impossible!” Qin Cuifen exclaimed in a panic yet defiantly, her expression contradicting herself.
Sheng Ning looked at her, a hint of mockery in her eyes. In her previous life, this was the time when Qin Cuifen shone brightest, similarly at the end of training camp, surrounded by countless people reluctant to say goodbye.
Scenes from her previous life passed before her eyes like frames from a black and white film, then slowly overlapped with the present. Seeing Qin Cuifen’s crestfallen demeanor now, Sheng Ning felt truly relieved for the first time since her rebirth.
The weight of Dashan that had been oppressing her heart for two lifetimes was finally lifted. Boiling a frog in warm water, making gradual progress, she believed that with her efforts, she would forever leave Qin Cuifen far behind.
