Chapter 53: The Cruel Zhao Shuanger
Tang Xiaoruan and Zhao Shuanger walked on the road, talking and laughing.
The two were reconciled last night.
Last night, Zhao Shuanger made a phone call to Tang Xiaorou.
On the phone, Zhao Shuanger cried bitterly, saying that she had liked the wrong person in the past, and that what she had said that day at the Deep Orchid Club was just angry words.
She apologized to Tang Xiaorou and asked for forgiveness.
After all, she was a good friend of high school for more than two years, Tang Xiaorou’s heart still softened and accepted Zhao Shuanger’s apology, and the two made up.
This morning, Zhao Shuanger sent a text message to Tang Xiaorou, asking her to come out at noon to go shopping and eat together, just like before.
Of course, Tang Xiaorou wouldn’t refuse, so the two of them walked together.
“Shuanger, you’ve been on leave for a few days, when are you coming back to class? Now that it’s close to the entrance exam, it’ll be hard for you to keep up with the progress if you keep taking time off.” Tang Xiaorou looked at Zhao Shuanger worriedly and said.
Zhao Shuanger smiled and said, “I’ll go back to class tomorrow, so taking time off for the next few days will be used as a way to relax and relieve stress.”
“That’s great.” Tang Xiaorou smiled.
The two of them kept talking and walking, and before they knew it, they reached an old pedestrian bridge, and underneath it was the famous Lijiang in Jianghai City.
This pedestrian bridge was built at the narrowest corner of the Lijiang River, and the river flowed rapidly.
The bridge is about fifteen meters above the river and offers a good view of the river.
Many tourists come to the city of Jianghai and choose to come to this pedestrian bridge to take pictures.
However, this pedestrian bridge has been built almost a hundred years ago, is relatively old, the safety factor is relatively low.
The handrail on the side of the bridge is very short, only up to the waist position.
That’s why the bridge has a yellow warning posted on the handrail: “Do not lean on the handrail!”
Zhao Shuanger and Tang Xiaorou walked to the middle of the pedestrian bridge and stopped.
It was Wednesday, there weren’t many pedestrians on this pedestrian bridge, and the surrounding area was quiet, only the sound of water passing by the river could be heard.
“Remember when we first met in high school, we would often come here to see the scenery.” Zhao Shuanger smiled and said to Tang Xiaorou.
“Yeah, time flies so fast, two years have passed in no time.” Tang Xiaorou’s beautiful eyes were filled with reminiscence.
“When we graduate in the future, there will be fewer and fewer opportunities to come here together to see the scenery.” Zhao Shuanger said.
“No, even if we graduate, we’ll still be good friends and we can see each other anytime.” Tang Xiaorou looked at Zhao Shuanger and said gently.
Zhao Shuanger’s eyes moved slightly, flickering a bit, but quickly became determined.
At this time, there were no pedestrians on the pedestrian bridge.
This was a perfect opportunity.
“Xiaorou, look at the bottom of the bridge, there seems to be a lot of fish popping up.” Zhao Shuanger said.
“Yes?” Tang Xiaorou took a step forward, braced her hands on the handrail, and looked at the bottom of the bridge.
Zhao Shuanger’s eyes flashed with a hint of malice and went around behind Tang Xiaorou’s back.
“How come I can’t see………..” Tang Xiaorou poked her head out and looked at the bottom of the bridge, looking for the fish that Zhao Shuaner was talking about.
Right at this moment, Zhao Shuanger was behind Tang Xiaorou, pushing hard!
Tang Xiaorou screamed, lost her centre of gravity and fell right into the turbulent river current!
“Tang Xiaorou, don’t blame me.”

“You’re the one who ruined my dream first, don’t blame me for being too cruel.”
Zhao Shuanger’s eyes were malevolent, but her face showed a quick smile after revenge, and her look was fierce and twisted.
“Seriously, on the point of being ruthless, you’ve really exceeded my expectations.”
At this time, a voice suddenly came from behind Zhao Shuanger’s back.
Zhao Shuanger’s face changed slightly.
Fang Yu? Why is he here?
As soon as she saw Fang Yu, Zhao Shuanger recalled the scene of Yang Xu being severely smashed by him with an iron rod at the Profound Orchid Club, and immediately felt some fear in her heart.
But perhaps because of her great revenge, she suddenly felt no fear again.
What could Fang Yu do? He couldn’t have seen what just happened!
Zhao Shuanger had observed the surroundings before making her move, confirming that no one was nearby.
Only then did she make a decisive move.
While pondering, Zhao Shuanger’s expression had become panicked and anxious.
“Fang Yu, you’re just in time, Xiaorou has accidentally fallen, what should we do? Hurry up and call the police…” Zhao Shuanger acted so realistically that her eyes reddened.
Fang Yu looked at Zhao Shuanger, who was performing, and his brows furrowed slightly.
“It’s just the two of us here, so don’t pretend.” Fang Yu said.
Zhao Shuanger’s expression was stagnant.
She didn’t expect Fang Yu to actually see it!
She’d noticed before she did it that there was no one around!
“I, I don’t know what you mean…” Zhao Shuanger said, her face changing slightly.
“Human hearts are indeed terrifying, I’ve seen quite a few psychologically twisted people like you, but among them, you’re considered to be relatively young.” Fang Yu said indifferently.
The panic disguised on Zhao Shuanger’s face slowly disappeared, replaced by a smile.
“Even if you saw it, so what? There are no cameras or other pedestrians around here, so what you say by yourself can’t be used as evidence.” Zhao Shuanger laughed unrestrainedly, “Of course, I know you’re good at fighting, you could kill me. It’s just that Tang Xiaorou can’t be saved no matter what, hahaha…”
This position was carefully chosen by her, so she could do it without being noticed by anyone.
In order to get back at Tang Xiaorou, she had thought of several options before.
Slash her face with a knife, take her to an alley, and give it to the gangster…
But if Zhao Shuanger made these plans, she herself would have to get involved and couldn’t get out.
With the Tang family’s strength, Zhao Shuanger would end up in a miserable situation.
So, she chose the most desperate method.
Bring Tang Xiaorou to this pedestrian bridge, and then push her into the river.
This way, she could get back at Tang Xiaorou and disguise it as an accident, so she didn’t have to take any responsibility.
“No other evidence is needed, I saw it, it’s evidence.” Fang Yu said.
“Hahaha…” Zhao Shuanger laughed indiscriminately and said: “Fang Yu, it’s useless for you to say anything more here, Tang Xiaorou is already dead, there’s nothing you can do to me…”
“Pop!”
Fang Yu took a step forward and slapped Zhao Shuanger’s face.
Zhao Shuanger screamed as several of her teeth flew out and fell to the ground, only feeling dizzy.
“Tang Xiaorou can still be saved. You, on the other hand, are already hopeless.” After saying that, Fang Yu leapt from the bridge, towards the river flow.
A few seconds later, he jumped out from the river current and placed the Tang Xiaorou in his hand on the ground by the shore.
Tang Xiaorou didn’t have any major problems, at most, she just drank a few more mouthfuls of the river water.
Fang Yu could have stopped Zhao Shuanger before she did so, but he didn’t.
Because Tang Xiaorou was indeed too stupid and needed to be taught a lesson.
If she didn’t have this lesson, she would still easily trust Zhao Shuanger next time.
Tang Xiaorou was drenched, her face was pale, and her body was trembling.
Compared to the blow her body received, the blow to her heart was even greater.
Zhao Shuanger… actually wanted to kill her.
This friend who had gotten along with her for more than two years, actually wanted to kill her.
Thinking about that phone call last night, and what Zhao Shuanger said just now on the bridge, and those disguised expressions….
Tang Xiaorou only felt a creepy feeling.
“I suggest that this person be handled by Tang Si.” Fang Yu said.
“Is she still on the bridge? I want to go meet her.” Tang Xiaorou said softly.
“Currently she shouldn’t be able to walk around.” Fang Yu said.
…………….
A few minutes later, Fang Yu and Tang Xiaorou returned to the pedestrian bridge.
Zhao Shuanger was still on the ground, covering her red and swollen cheeks.
Seeing Tang Xiaorou come back unharmed, her eyes were filled with horror, followed by endless hatred.
“Zhao Shuanger, I only came back to know one thing, why do you hate me so much?” Tang Xiaorou’s gaze towards Zhao Shuanger became cold.
“Hahaha… why do I hate you? Don’t you understand? In the two years I’ve been ‘best friends’ with you, I’ve been the green leaf beside you, setting off your flower even more beautifully!”
“I’ve had a crush on Yang Xu for more than two years, but Yang Xu’s eyes are always on you! Before when Yang Xu said he liked me, I thought it was true…that time…was the happiest time for me…if only it could go on forever…but it’s because of you again!”
“You’ve ruined my dreams! You’ve ruined everything for me! Every time I see that smile on your face, I get sick, you know!”
Zhao Shuanger roared hysterically, her eyes blood red and filled with hatred.
Although she was mentally prepared, but seeing the hatred in Zhao Shuanger’s eyes with her own eyes, Tang Xiaorou still felt incomparably uncomfortable, her whole body weak and unable to speak.
What is this?
She thought of Zhao Shuanger as her best friend in her heart, but Zhao Shuanger treated her as an enemy.
She thought that Zhao Shuanger sincerely wanted to reconcile with her, but the truth was that Zhao Shuanger wanted to kill her.
