Chapter 181 She Was Suspected to Be A Murderer?!

Everything seemed to make sense, if she thought of it this way.

After going through the incident in her mind, the conclusion was that Song Sisi had woken Tang Xia up by deliberately making a lot of noise when she got up. It was easy to set a trap for her because she was only half awake and feeling a bit groggy.

Song Sisi had encouraged her to wander around, while Fang Yan had followed Tang Xia.

He covered for Song Sisi, so that she could go back to her room through a shortcut, when he was talking with Tang Xia. Then Song Sisi pretended to be asleep, when Fang Yan incited her to check around. All this made sense!

But she failed to figure out why they would do such a thing. What was their purpose?

Was it because she had argued with Song Sisi, in the daytime? Or was it because that she had ignored Song Sisi’s warning and Song Sisi was angry and wanted to play a trick on her?

This was quite impossible because it was so childish. Then she recalled what Fang Yan said. Was it because… Song Sisi was trying to frame her, so as to increase the suspicion that she could possibly be the murderer?

Tang Xia was a little confused and shook her head. This seemed impossible. She scratched her head and thought, “Alright, I’ll go to sleep first. Now that I can’t figure it out, I will just wait for the result.”

The next day——

Tang Xia was awakened by the sound of heavy rain hitting against the window.

She opened her eyes hazily, but found that Song Sisi and the others were not awake yet. Recalling what had happened the night before, made her feel exhausted. Though she did not get enough sleep, she was in no mood to get more sleep.

This was because the rain kept falling, and it seemed that each of her fellow companions in the house, seemed to be hatching a plot. She dared not sleep, even though her body was yearning for more sleep.

All of them awoke, when she got up and started packing up everything. With some hesitation, she decided to lend a hand in the kitchen, only to find the housekeeper staring at the food, with some concern.

“What’s wrong?” Tang Xia asked.

Seeing it was Tang Xia, the housekeeper sighed. “I’m not sure how long this will keep us alive…”

Tang Xia fell silent too. They had been stuck here for several days, and the weather…

When everyone was awake, Tang Xia helped to serve the food. On seeing her serving him rice, Ye Yifan smiled abruptly.

Tang Xia was puzzled by Ye Yifan’s look. “What are you smiling at?”

Ye Yifan whispered in her ear, “I discovered that you have the gift to be an understanding wife and loving mother.”

Tang Xia blushed in shame. She didn’t expect this compliment from him, so early in the morning. She turned around and fled from him. She continued to serve rice to the others, and Ye Yifan gave a wider smile, when he saw this.

Song Sisi who had been standing aside, was thoroughly infuriated, as she watched their interactions. She slammed her chopsticks on the table, in fury. Beside her, Fang Yan immediately held her hand, out of concern.

“What’s wrong? Does your hand hurt?”

Song Sisi pushed Fang Yan away. “What would it be his turn? How could he hold her hand?” She looked at Fang Yan in disdain, and the latter felt as if he had done something wrong. Tang Xia had just served Song Sisi’s rice, and put it in front of her.

“Humph, this is really a bargain. Everything she does, corresponds to her identity.”

Tang Xia was stunned. No one could fail to read the taunt, that Tang Xia had gone after Ye Yifan, right after breaking up with Fang Yan. But anyway, such words should not have been so boldly spoken by a girl.

Who else would do this sort of thing, except an uneducated woman? Ye Yifan was instantly annoyed, but just as he was about to say something, Tang Xia took away the rice that she had placed in front of Song Sisi.

“I forgot. How could I ask a noble one to eat rice that was offered by a bargain? I just demeaned myself in vain.” Tang Xia smiled, and returned the rice back to the pot.

“You!” Song Sisi saw red at once. “Everyone is stuck here and worrying about the food tomorrow, and now you’re bantering with Ye Yifan!”

Tang Xia snorted. “So? Does it mean that I’m heartless if I don’t show any concern? Do you want me to cry in your presence?”

Song Sisi lost her tongue, while Fang Yan tried to mediate. “All right, Sisi. You have my share, and I’ll will get another one for myself.”

Song Sisi pushed him away. “Who cares about your share!”

Fang Yan was surprised but he didn’t lose his temper. Instead, he filled another bowl with rice for her, in silence.

Tang Xia suddenly realized that what Fang Yan felt for Song Sisi, was true love! He tolerated such a woman and her bad temper. But, previously, she did not have the impression that he was weak. That must be because he hadn’t found his true love yet, at that time.

“It appears that love is magical, for it can turn a scumbag into a sweet guy. Alas.”

She suddenly associated this with Ye Yifan and turned to look at him, and found him looking at her, too. All that came into his mind was that Tang Xia’s face, as she argued with Song Sisi, looked so lovely and playful. Tang Xia was embarrassed by his ardent gaze, so she carried on eating, with her head down.

All of them were silent, during breakfast. No one was talking. With this silence, all that could be heard was the sound of the rain pattering on the windows. They all had the same thought, that they wouldn’t survive a second day, thus the atmosphere became more and more solemn.

Unless the damage caused by the landslide could be settled, the few grains of rice they had, would not last long. Plus the fact that the villa was at such a desolate spot, they had to find a way out.

After breakfast, the five of them sat around in the living room.

“What’s the plan? Do we just stay here and wait for death?”

Dabing’s sudden words broke the silence, but they made the atmosphere even more somber.

“Waiting for death? I don’t want to die!”

On hearing the word “death”, Song Sisi jumped up at once. This must be a joke. She was so young. Will she die so soon, with such a pretty face, and in the bloom of her youth? Never!

Seeing Song Sisi so worked up, Fang Yan patted her on her back, and comforted her.

“It is alright. I won’t let you die!”

Song Sisi was somewhat relieved when she heard Fang Yan’s promise, but she eluded his hands and kept herself out of his reach.

Tang Xia felt they were a perfect match, when she saw them pushing each other.

As everyone kept silent, Ye Yifan looked at Tang Xia, and stood up slowly.

“We can’t just sit here and wait for our doom”

Tang Xia was stunned, gazing at him in confusion. Did he have any solution? The present weather, along with the landslide, made it difficult for them to leave, even if a helicopter came to rescue them. Moreover, they had been out of touch with the outside world. As she thought about the very limited food in the kitchen, and the chances of being killed at any time, she could not figure out any solution. They seemed to be at a dead end.

Ye Yifan noticed her gaze, so he nodded, to give her some relief. Tang Xia calmed down once she saw his eyes.

Song Sisi and Fang Yan noticed this, and the latter said impatiently,

“Stop exchanging flirty glances. Just tell us if you have anything to say!”

Ye Yifan frowned. Obviously, he was a little annoyed by his rudeness.

“The three of us will try to find a way out. The ladies will wait for us in the villa.”

Fang Yan pursed his lips in disdain, but said nothing. He couldn’t think of a better solution, after all.

They would do it, since no one had any objections. Dabing stood up and agreed,

“Ok, we’ll do that!”

Fang Yan got up too, and looked back at Song Sisi.

“Wait for me to come back.”

But Song Sisi sat there in silence, without any expression on her face.

The three males changed into relatively warm clothes, and went out as soon as they were ready. Now, there was only Tang Xia and Song Sisi in the house, and they sat at opposite sides of the living room.

Tang Xia was silent for she didn’t want to be in the same room as Song Sisi, so she stood up, planning to go back to her own room. Just as she was about to head for the stairs, Song Sisi suddenly asked her to stop.

“Stop!”

Tang Xia looked back, impatiently, holding on to the rail with one hand and the other, on her waist.

“Yes?”

Song Sisi folded her arms and walked slowly to her, holding her head high. The clicking sound from her high-heeled shoes echoed loudly in the living room, where there was no one, except for the two of them.

“What on earth did you do last night?”

Tang Xia suddenly laughed. “I should ask you about that. You got up on purpose at midnight, woke me up, and got me to walk around the house. Couldn’t you find something else to do?”

Song Sisi seemed to be avoiding Tang Xia’s eyes.

“What are you talking about? I heard from Fang Yan that you hung around at the corridor stealthily, at midnight, instead of going to bed! Tell me, what were you about to do, alone at such a late hour? Were you planning to murder another one?”

Tang Xia glared at her fiercely, “Murder?”

Song Sisi smiled in satisfaction, “So? Do you want to kill me after being provoked? You killed Zhang Yaoyao, didn’t you? Why are you glaring at me so fiercely?”

Her cold stare seemed to drip ice, and this forced Song Sisi to retreat, step by step.

Song Sisi was scared because Tang Xia’s expression was so terrifying, at the moment. But there was the couch behind her. Without any other way for her to move, she sat on the couch directly, after failing to notice it.

Tang Xia laughed suddenly. “Are you trying to frame me, as a murderer, by doing all this?”

Song Sisi felt ashamed instantly. She forced herself to argue back, “Did I frame you? It’s obvious that you did that”

Tang Xia reached out and raised Son Sisi’s jaw, smiling coldly at her. “If I were indeed a murderer, the first one to be killed by me, would not have been Zhang Yaoyao.”

Song Sisi’s eyes widened immediately. She saw Tang Xia bending down and approaching her ear, whispered, “But you.”

Song Sisi felt as if she had been thrown into hell, suddenly feeling cold, even though she had wrapped herself with a blanket.

As she lost her head, the housekeeper rushed over suddenly. “Stop arguing, please! I’m afraid that the three gentlemen will be in great danger!”

Both of them were startled. Did he know something? Why was he so certain, as if he knew what was going to happen? Tang Xia asked immediately, “What do you mean by that?”

The housekeeper, however, was unwilling to tell more, and looked bashful. But Tang Xia was determined to drag this out from him. “Tell us, housekeeper!”

Song Sisi also couldn’t wait anymore. She demanded, in a hurry, “Tell us now!”

It appeared that the housekeeper could not take their questioning, because he covered his head with his hands, as if he had a headache. He squatted and said, “There is a man… There is a man…”

Tang Xia asked hurriedly, “Who is he?”

But housekeeper kept repeating the same sentence, no matter how they hard they prodded him. “There is a man…”

Tang Xia was puzzled. “A man? Who was he? Did this mean… that a man was here, before their arrival?”

At this point, there were some noises at the door.

Tap-tap!

“Was that someone knocking at the door?”
