Teleportations — I Wanna Be An Online Celebrity

Chapter 238 Catching The Secret Lover

Upon looking at the furious Zhong Ze, Tang Xia was a little shocked by his gaze. Her heart could not help but sink a little. However, since she was already caught, she could not become a scaredy-cat now. “I already said that I’m just going to keep it for two days. Why are you so serious?”

When she saw that Zhong Ze was about to hit her, Tang Xia quickly dodged. Although she might have dodged his attack, his hand was still squeezing her wrist tightly. He was exerting so much strength that it seemed as if he was going to crush her bones.

Hua Zheng frowned tightly instantly. Is this dude even a man? It’s just a jade pendant!

“I asked you to let go! Can’t you hear?” Zhong Ze practically squeezed these words through his teeth.

She felt the strength exerted on her hand becoming stronger. Her hand was undergoing immense pain. She seemingly heard a crack, as if her bone had been cracked open.

In that split second, Tang Xia wanted to push him away, but he was too strong. He was also prepared this time around. No matter how hard she pushed, it was to no avail. He stood there motionlessly, glaring at her.

Helpless, she could only soften her attitude and shout quickly, “I’ll give it back to you! I’ll let it go! Is that enough?” As she spoke, she passed the jade pendant to him. Zhong Ze then let go of her hand. After taking the jade pendant from her, he flung her hand away.

Tang Xia stumbled two steps back and quickly checked her wrist. She realized that there was a blue-purple spot on her wrist and a few clearly-defined fingerprints. She was pissed immediately. This should be considered domestic violence!

Bi Luo, who had been standing beside her, quickly went over to check her hand. Upon seeing her wrist, she became dumbfounded instantly and gasped in shock. “Madam! Your wrist! Does it hurt?”

Tang Xia did not know what to say. Could she say that it was already numb, so she felt no pain?

Zhong Ze put the jade pendant back at his waist area, turned around and looked at Tang Xia in disgust. “Get lost!” he said with extreme annoyance.

Tang Xia knew that she had failed. Upon seeing how delighted Ling Er was as she sat on the couch, Tang Xia said nothing and remained expressionless. She cared only about her mission. She was not interested in how the people here viewed her. Bi Luo quickly followed her.

Along the way, Tang Xia said nothing. She just walked very fast. Bi Luo did not know what else to do. She could only trot behind while panting, running and shouting at the same time, “Madam! Wait for me! Wait for me, Madam!”

However, Tang Xia had no intention of waiting for her at all. As if she had not heard anything, she ran back to her room without stopping. Tang Xia sat down on the chair as soon as she entered her room in a daze without saying anything.

When Bi Luo finally made it, she leaned against the door and panted heavily. “Madam… What happened to you today? Why are you so different?”

Tang Xia, who was in a daze, was brought back to reality by her words and frowned. “What’s different about me?” Bi Luo regained her breath and said carefully and respectfully, “Madam was more willing to cause trouble for Sir than usual…”

Tang Xia raised her brow. By right, Tang Ning should not have been bullied easily in the past. Why had she become a coward only in front of Zhong Ze?

Tang Xia suddenly turned around and glared at Bi Luo. “What’s with Zhong Ze? Does the jade pendant hold any significance for him?” Tang Xia thought that Zhong Ze did not seem like someone who would flare up at others often.

Bi Luo froze. She felt that Tang Xia had crossed the line earlier. “The jade pendant that you tried to snatch away just now… had been given to him by the late First Madam…”

Tang Xia was shocked. There was still a First Madam? She finally realized what was going on. So that was the case… She understood suddenly. If the pedant had been given to him by his previous lover, it was no wonder that he treasured it so much.

She became happier instantly. It seemed like she had to form a long-term plan in order to get the jade pendant. While thinking about this, Tang Xia stood up slowly. “Bi Luo, find me some ointment for my bruises and help me apply it on my wrist.”

Bi Luo, who had also been staring at her wrist for a very long time, responded immediately and turned to find some ointment.

Tang Xia was getting bored of staying in the house alone. Thus, she stood up right away. Perhaps she should go to the courtyard to take a stroll. Since she had nothing to do anyway, perhaps a change of mood would help her think of an idea to get the jade pendant.

As she spoke, she turned around and left the room. Tang Xia looked around, rubbing her wrist every now and then. By now, the sky had gradually darkened. The whole mansion seemed to be enveloped in the quiet moonlight.

Tang Xia could not help but sigh. The night view of this ancient place was indeed beautiful. Just as she was immersed in this night view, she suddenly heard a sound behind her and quickly turned around.

She saw that there seemed to be something in the bush that was shaking. Feeling confused, Tang Xia walked towards it and gently spread open the bush. She was greeted by the back view of a man who was looking around sneakily.

This was strange. A man was looking around the mansion sneakily at night. No matter how hard she thought, she did not think that he was doing anything good. She suddenly had the urge to play a trick on him. She walked up to him directly and tapped her index finger on his shoulder.

The man was so shocked that his whole body shook and he almost landed on his behind. He looked at Tang Xia almost speechlessly and pointed at her. “You… you… you… you…”

Tang Xia raised her brow and pointed at herself. “Me? I’m fine, but why are you hiding in the bushes sneakily at night?”

The man, who did not know how to answer her, wanted to escape. Tang Xia’s lips curled into a faint smile. “And yet you’re trying to escape?” As she spoke, she went up to him and pressed him against the ground.

Tang Xia then realized that the man was holding a lunch box in his hand. She froze momentarily and pressed his neck. “Who are you? What are you doing here at night?”

The man had not expected to be suppressed by a woman to this extent. Although he struggled to break free, he was helplessly restrained by her. He had no chance to turn over.

Tang Xia smiled coldly. Had her training in the Garden of Eden been a joke? The man gave up helplessly and lay on the ground, crying miserably, “I’m just taking Second Madam some food!”

Tang Xia raised her brow. He had been hiding in the bushes sneakily at night just to bring Ling Er some food? Why did she not believe him? “Are you trying to bluff?” The man started to defend himself anxiously. “It’s true! Look at the lunch box! These are Second Lady’s favorite dishes!” Tang Xia could not help but laugh coldly. She could not believe that things were so simple!

As she thought so, she pulled him up forcefully. The man, who was shocked, had not expected her to have such great strength. He could not even escape from this woman.

Tang Xia held the lunch box in one hand and the man in another while taking him to her room directly. Actually, she was not very strong. On the contrary, this man was too weak. That was why he could not be compared to Zhong Ze.

Bi Luo came running back after searching for the ointment. However, when she entered, she realized that Tang Xia was missing and started to search around anxiously. Unfortunately, no matter what, she could not find her. Feeling helpless, she could only return to the room and wait.

When Tang Xia returned, this was what she saw. Bi Luo was holding onto a bottle of ointment while pacing back and forth anxiously.

Upon hearing footsteps at the door, she immediately looked up towards it. When she saw Tang Xia’s face, she was really happy.

However, when she saw that she had brought a man back, she froze there instantly. Her mouth widened but she said nothing for a very long time. Tang Xia, who was a little confused about what had happened to her, approached her and waved her hand in front of her.

Bi Luo snapped back to reality instantly and grabbed Tang Xia’s hand. “Madam! Are you crazy? How can you bring back a young man? Master already did not want to see you! How could you bring another man back?”

Crazy, crazy, crazy. Ever since Madam and Sir had come back from their boat ride, they had been acting abnormally.

Tang Xia sucked in a cold breath due to Bi Luo’s tight grip. She had coincidentally grabbed onto her bruised wrist. Bi Luo got a shock and quickly let go of her wrist before taking the lunch box in her hand.

Tang Xia could not help but smile. The young man… She also thought that he was a young man. “Bi Luo, go close the door and lock it.” Bi Luo was a little confused, yet she still did so anyway.

Actually, she was afraid that this man would run away. “And find me a rope to tie him up.” Bi Luo, who was startled, nodded. She then turned around to find a rope to tie him up.

After making sure that it was a tight knot, she turned around to inspect the lunch box and opened the lid slowly. At the same time, she studied the man’s expression. She saw that he became increasingly nervous and could not sit still anymore.

Tang Xia emptied out all the food in the lunch box and knocked it gently. Indeed, it was empty inside. However, it was still very off.

As she thought so and was about to dismantle the lunch box, the man who was tied up and kneeling on the ground ran towards her suddenly to snatch it away.

Tang Xia responded immediately. She dodged away and picked up the fruit knife beside her, swinging it in front of him. “If you move one more time, I’ll find someone to kill you!”

The young man fell silent immediately. Even though he was not completely reconciled, he did not continue to cause trouble.

She just turned around and continued to study the lunch box. She touched it everywhere. What exactly was different about this box? As she thought about it, she suddenly heard a crack. She froze instantly as Bi Luo stepped forward curiously.

Meanwhile, that man panicked immediately but dared not move. He could only watch the lunch box with his eyes. He had probably succumbed to her threat.

A box popped up suddenly. Tang Xia focused and saw that there was a hairpin and a note inside. She picked up the hairpin in confusion and shook it. There was nothing different about it, except that it was a little plain and elegant.

Tang Xia set the hairpin aside and opened the note. In an instant, her eyes opened wide. The note specified the time and place of a lovers’ rendezvous.
