Chapter 1001 - 1000: Jumping Out the Window
Chapter 1001 - 1000: Jumping Out the Window
It was precisely because I understood Tangtang that I realized how difficult it was for him to make such a choice, and I was moved that Tangtang actually regarded me as so important.
But their choices seemed childish in front of Third Young Master Hu and Fourth Master Wu; the two of them completely disregarded Tangtang and Guoguo.
At this moment, they had completely regarded Tangtang and Guoguo as their possessions, teasing them like hunters taunting their prey before a capture.
They enjoyed and appreciated the frantic expressions of Tangtang and Guoguo when facing danger. Only when they showed such expressions did the two of them feel how remarkable and powerful they were.
The reaction of their mother and Guoguo perfectly fit their definition of the weak encountering the strong. Yes, at this time, they positioned themselves as the strong.
Bullying the old, the weak, the sick, and the poor is despised by real strongmen, but for Third Young Master Hu and Fourth Master Wu, this was the only way to prove their strength.
Their lives were originally a mess; without achievements in literature or martial arts, they had no survival skills other than petty theft.
Unlike Tangtang and Guoguo, this lawless land had no one like Third Young Master Hu and Fourth Master Wu, just two petty thieves.
Only Tangtang and Guoguo, who were completely unfamiliar with the lawless zone, would be deceived by the appearances of Third Young Master Hu and Fourth Master Wu.
But those who had lived here for a long time completely disregarded these two, as who would care about two rats?
But now it was these two rats that had completely cornered Tangtang and Guoguo onto a dead-end road.
"Run, keep running. I’ll tell you, tonight you are destined not to escape. If you cooperate, we might consider being gentle, but if you don’t, don’t blame us for being rough and hurting you." Fourth Master Wu said arrogantly.
"Face the reality; behind you is just a window. You only have two choices now: either stay here obediently and serve us, becoming our exclusive slaves in the future, or jump out of the window immediately. But I must remind you, you are on the fifth floor, though it doesn’t seem high, a healthy person can still break or die falling from here. If you are less fortunate and land on your neck, you might die instantly." Third Young Master Hu said as he glanced at their tense expressions.
Although his words contained intimidation, Third Young Master Hu wasn’t wrong.
Tangtang and Guoguo really only had these two paths to take, one appeared as a dead-end as Third Young Master Hu described.
The height of the fifth floor is neither high nor low; if fortunate, one might only suffer fractures; if not, one might truly die here.
And now Tangtang and Guoguo faced a choice: choose dignity or choose death?
Is dignity truly more important than life?
Third Young Master Hu and Fourth Master Wu had done the same to many others before forcing Tangtang and Guoguo, and the others chose to save their lives by temporarily submitting to them, becoming their playthings.
To prevent these women from retaliating, they even filmed them and sent the footage, warning them to keep silent.
This is precisely why Third Young Master Hu and Fourth Master Wu could roam freely, undetected and uncaught.
The lawless zone was a reason, but the biggest one was that these women had been mentally broken by them, accustomed to obeying their commands, incapable of resisting.
This is why, with good experience, Third Young Master Hu and Fourth Master Wu stood calmly in front of the sisters, not stopping them.
In their eyes, Tangtang and Guoguo were young and full of life; how could they truly be willing to jump?
Women who tried the same bluff had retreated, becoming their playthings without exception.
They couldn’t muster the courage to die, so Third Young Master Hu and Fourth Master Wu decided Tangtang and Guoguo based on this.
In their hearts, they looked down on women, not believing Tangtang and Guoguo would really jump.
But Third Young Master Hu and Fourth Master Wu’s words struck Tangtang and Guoguo hard like a blow to the head.
Their minds had been so tense earlier that they couldn’t think, only wanted to fight their way out.
But now Third Young Master Hu and Fourth Master Wu offered another path: jumping.
If they couldn’t win against the two men, why not jump?
At least jumping offered a slight chance of survival; who could guarantee they’d be unlucky enough to break their necks?
And if fate was so cruel that jumping meant breaking necks and death, they could accept that.
To some, dignity isn’t more important than life, but to Tangtang and Guoguo, if forced into intimacy with these men, they’d rather choose death.
At least in death, they’d be pure, not controlled or sullied in life.
At least they’d enter and leave this world with dignity.
That alone satisfied them.
The sisters looked at each other, seeing resolution in their eyes, and they smiled.
"If there’s a next life, I want to be sisters with you again, preferably twins, but this time let me be the elder sister, you take care of me." I looked into Tangtang’s eyes seriously.
Tangtang nodded earnestly, "Okay, next life, I’ll be the younger sister and protect you."
Watching their words and actions, Third Young Master Hu and Fourth Master Wu’s ease and ridicule faded; they sensed Tangtang and Guoguo were different from other women, looking willing to embrace death.
But their reaction was too slow; just as they realized this, Tangtang and Guoguo had jumped out the window.
Their movements showed no hesitation.
