Chapter 190: Holding Ying Chengya Hostage

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

The entire banquet fell silent. No matter how hungry they were, they all put down their chopsticks.

Some of them already had some idea and were secretly looking forward to it, while others were confused and couldn’t help but look at Lu Yunxiang and the others’ reactions.

Only two people picked food for each other and ate slowly, as if no one else was around. They were even talking and laughing, which was particularly eye-catching, but they did not take Shi Shaochen seriously.

Shi Shaochen was speechless.

Tang Susu lost interest after two bites. Although it was also vegetables grown by a Wood-type superpower user, she didn’t know whether it was a difference in the level of ability or a difference in individual planting skills.

Lu Yunxiang had actually grown the vegetables like vegetables in a greenhouse. The taste and texture were much worse, far from the fresh and tender taste that her mother’s vegetables had, as if she grew them in the mountains of the gods.

However, in line with the principle that food was scarce in the apocalypse, the two of them still ate their fill without wasting anything.

Ying Chengya looked at them, who looked like they were reincarnated hungry ghosts. She almost had her disgust written on her face. However, it was easy to understand. This was the only time they could satisfy their cravings.

“Why are you looking at us? Eat! Don’t wait for the food to get cold. It’s difficult to eat something hot now!” Mrs. Tang ignored Shi Shaochen’s murderous stare and called out to everyone.

“Alright!” Lu Yunxiang was the first to pick up her chopsticks. She felt rather relieved. It was already an honor for these people to eat the vegetables that she had worked so hard to grow. She must not waste them!

Mr. Duan naturally followed her actions closely, and one after another, the people who were on Lu Yunxiang’s side also started to eat.

Lu Yunxiang also knew their intentions from her heart, but the thought of it was so heavy that she almost couldn’t breathe.

She was afraid that she could not keep her shelter!

Shi Shaochen looked at the people who didn’t move their chopsticks. Although they all looked like they didn’t care, they were probably more anxious than the others.

If he didn’t let them eat, it would be hard to guarantee that they wouldn’t complain later on.

He was a little upset that Mrs. Tang had insulted him like that, but he had no choice but to say, “You guys should eat too. We’ll talk after you’re done.”

Almost as soon as he finished speaking, those people instantly picked up their chopsticks.

Some of them couldn’t wait to stand up and pick up a large piece of chives and green pepper. These were all ordinary home-cooked recipes before the apocalypse, but at this moment, they were more attractive than crystal cores!

When the others saw this, they also quickly stood up and used their chopsticks to quickly scrape the remaining vegetables onto their plates.

The banquet was thrown into chaos.

While the others were still fighting for the food, Tang Susu and Mrs. Tang had already wiped the corners of their mouths after having their fill.

Not only did she taste all the dishes on the table, but she also managed to avoid the saliva on their chopsticks before those people did.

It was as if she had everything calculated.

On the other hand, Ying Chengya couldn’t eat at all, even if her stomach was growling because of the way those people ate.

Shi Shaochen noticed this, and his eyes darkened. The damned Tang family is getting more and more calculative!

However, he picked up a piece of vegetable with his chopsticks and spat it out after chewing it a few times.

“What’s this?!”

The others were shocked, but they only stopped for a few seconds. When they saw that the people from Qingzhou Shelter were still fighting for food, they did not even care about his mood and fought again.

“That is mine. How dare you eat it!”

“What do you mean by yours? I got it, so it’s mine!” As he spoke, he stuffed it into his mouth and began to eat it with relish.

“Holy crap! Does Chongzhou shelter not provide you with enough food? ”

Shi Shaochen’s face turned green and black as he heard this. He spat out the sand in his mouth and picked up the last dish on the plate next to him.

His face instantly darkened!

It wasn’t an illusion. There really was soil in these vegetables!

He couldn’t help but look at Mrs. Tang beside him. The beautiful middle-aged woman was whispering to her daughter. She couldn’t help but smile when she saw him looking at her.

“Is the food good?”

The simple sentence instantly ignited all the temper that Shi Shaochen had been suppressing.

He suddenly stood up and flipped the table over!

A scries of loud crackling sounds seemed to be a signal for the start of the battle. The other people were still angry from snatching food, and the people on both sides immediately started fighting.

At this moment…

Tang Susu, who had been quiet and kept a low profile all this time, almost made people forget about her existence, suddenly appeared behind Ying Chengya.

Ying Chengya sensed something and immediately turned around in shock. However, she was suddenly and accurately caught by the throat!

With an expressionless face, Tang Susu grabbed her hands and twisted them behind her back. She tightened her grip and twisted them at an incredible angle!

“Ah, it hurts!” The tender-looking Ying Chengya was in so much pain that her tears began to roll. “Ah! Shaochen, save me!”

Shi Shaochen was shocked, and his face darkened. A storm seemed to brew in his eyes. “What are you doing? I advise you to let her go immediately!”

Tang Susu glanced at the crowd. Lu Yunxiang was struggling to fight back, Mr. Duan was still fighting despite his injuries, and one of the two people who had insisted on following them was dead and the other was injured.

The people on Shi Shaochen’s side were like cats playing with mice, quickly taking control of the situation.

She smiled and said, “It’s time for you to suffer…”

Tang Susu picked up the machete that she always carried with her. With a flick of her wrist, she placed the blade on Ying Chengya’s beautiful face. Shi Shaochen’s breath stopped!

For a moment, everyone stopped what they were doing and looked at this scene in fear.

She was afraid that Tang Susu’s hand would slip and leave an ugly scar on her beautiful face!

The young man in the corner smiled with great interest. It was right to come today. He didn’t expect there to be such a wonderful show!

The girl tilted her head. The sharp blade scraped Ying Chengya’s carefully maintained skin like a venomous snake slowly moving away.

Every movement and expression revealed a sense of contempt and humiliation, but also had an indescribable charm!

Ying Chengya was so embarrassed that she wanted to die. “Shaochen!”

Shi Shaochen’s mind was in a mess. He took a deep breath and looked at Tang Susu. “Let her go, and I’ll agree to anything!”

Tang Susu chuckled indifferently. “Tell me, if I disfigured her face, would it be more serious than when you hurt my brother? Would it make your heart ache more?”

Shi Shaochen squinted his eyes. “I’ll apologize to you for what happened! I was the one that did it. It has nothing to do with Chengya. If you want to hurt someone, hurt me!”

“Oh? Why don’t you try to hurt yourself to show your determination?” Tang Susu remembered that there seemed to be such a classic and melodramatic scene in the game. She didn’t expect that the plot would somehow show up.

The corners of her lips curled up slightly. “Why don’t you use your

Thunder-type power to cripple your right hand?”

The people in the banquet hall gasped in disbelief.

Shi Shaochen didn’t hesitate and said, “Fine!”

Ying Chengya was thinking that if he was injured, she would be in even more danger. She pitifully cried out, “No, Shaochen!”

On the other hand, Lu Yunxiang and Mr. Duan heaved a sigh of relief. They couldn’t believe that the situation had been reversed so easily.

If Shi Shaochen’s right hand was crippled, his power would also be affected.

Shi Shaochen’s men hated Tang Susu to the core. Just as they were about to do the same thing to Mrs. Tang, they realized she had already disappeared.

Darn it, they had clearly planned it!

Shi Shaochen had also realized this, so he had no choice but to ‘show weakness’ to Tang Susu. He watched as his beloved woman cried until she was choking.

His eyes were filled with darkness and cruelty. He quickly gathered a bolt of purple lightning on his fingertip and aimed it at the back of his hand.

The energy in such a small flickering needle was already so astonishing.

Tang Susu’s body tensed up unconsciously, and she was almost going to use Ying Chengya as a shield.

Suddenly, her entire body went numb.

It was as if she had accidentally come into contact with static during the dry fall. She felt as if her entire body was wrapped in an invisible but weak electrical purse.

It was at this moment that she suddenly remembered the second-rank skill of the Thunder-type superpower… Lock-On!
