Chapter 3, The Command of Shame

At this point, everyone was left speechless, each turning their head away. Lu Man shot her an angry glance, then sat down in her seat and silently began to cry

Throughout the journey, Zi Ruoling remained silent, simply walking at the front.

This has nothing to do with me; I simply cannot bear to stand by and do nothing in the face of death. I said to her calmly as I looked at her

I gazed at her, my voice stammering as I said: "Thank you"

When class was over, Zi Ruoling glanced at me and then said in a very soft voice, "Come with me."

At this moment, I stood up and said helplessly, "I understand everyone's thoughts; each person is selfish. However, Lu Man is, after all, a girl and cannot do such things. I hope everyone can lend a hand."

Her complexion grew increasingly pale, and her gaze became more and more desperate. Yet at that moment, no one spoke.

Upon seeing this, everyone was astonished, unable to believe that the commands of the Huangquan Loan had become increasingly audacious

At that moment, my whole body trembled, and my palm landed on Ziruoling's hip, giving it a direct slap. The sensation I felt left me speechless, and I felt completely dizzy.

Lu Man looked at me with gratitude, but her gaze remained fixed on her phone, still filled with a sense of melancholy.

Time quickly passed, and only a few minutes remained. At this moment, Lu Man walked up to the podium. Upon seeing this, many boys secretly swallowed their saliva, feeling a bit excited inside

I took a step back, my voice trembling with fear: "Could it be the work of Huangquan Dai? He does not want us to escape his control"

Then she turned around and walked straight out

As I held my head, looking at my phone, I painfully exclaimed, "In one hour, my arm will be gone"

Although I felt a bit embarrassed, this was a matter of my own life. Therefore, I gritted my teeth and walked over.

At that moment, I stood up and handed Lu Man three hundred yuan. This was all my savings.

"How could this happen?" Zi Ruoling said with a pale face

I pushed through the crowd to look ahead, only to see the principal's body heavily collapsed at the bottom of the stairs, and on his head, there was a shocking wound.

Zi Ruoling nodded, then turned her head and slightly closed her eyes

As time passed, Lu Man was searching everywhere for someone to borrow money from, even approaching her homeroom teacher. However, in the end, she returned to the classroom feeling dejected

"Tang Qi, what does this matter have to do with you?" A girl stepped forward; her name was Su Meixian, and she had a grudge against Lu Man.

What? At this moment, we were all shocked, each of us unable to believe that such a thing could happen

"But this should be an accident, what exactly happened?" Behind him, Xiang Lengxue began to cry.

I do not know how much painful struggle she endured during that time, and I was powerless to help her. I could only sit silently in the chair

I cast a glance at her, too indifferent to argue with her. The people around also glared at her with anger

I also became bold, then reached out my hand and gently patted. At that moment, I felt as if I had transcended, my whole being was in a daze, and I couldn't react for quite a while.

How long will it take? "Xiang Lengxue asked.

The homeroom teacher approached, her gaze directed at us, and then she said: "Students, do not worry, the vice principal is already aware of this news, and your money will definitely be resolved."

The surrounding students were discussing animatedly, as it turned out that the principal had accidentally fallen down the stairs and was now in a state of unconsciousness.

I understand

"It is truly insulting to let Lu Man do such things," a girl scolded.

The principal was taken away by an ambulance, and it is feared that he will not regain consciousness in the short term. The entire school fell into chaos. Several teachers came out to quell the turmoil.

I stood there foolishly, taking a long time to react. Then I walked out.

The homeroom teacher shook his head, indicating that he did not know either

After arriving at a secluded corner, Ziruoling turned her head, blushing as she looked at me, and then said: "Don't get me wrong, I only did it to save you"

Tang Qi completed the task, and the debt was reduced by 1,000 yuan. The next command is that Lu Man must perform a striptease lasting no less than 20 minutes in front of the entire class within three hours. Otherwise, she will lose her legs

Zi Ruoling turned her head, her eyes filled with a mix of shyness and annoyance as she looked at me: "You, be... a little gentler."

As soon as these words were spoken, a profound silence enveloped the surroundings. Those who were originally filled with righteous indignation also fell silent at that moment

However, there is another way to save Lu Man. All of you have money in your hands. If all this money is given to her, it will be enough to repay her debts. In this way, once she clears her debts, she will no longer be subject to my orders

In an instant, everyone began to curse, saying that this Huangquan Loan is truly a demon. He treats us as if we are mere playthings.

"Hmph, I see you have taken a liking to her, haven't you? Unfortunately, your meager funds are utterly insufficient to save her," Su Meixian said with a cold laugh.

It was only when Ziruoling pushed me that I realized we had already completed ten rounds

In an instant, Su Meixian seemed to have become the public enemy of the entire class, and such gazes made her feel quite uncomfortable. She let out a cold laugh and then said, "Since you all want to help him so much, why not offer some money instead?"

"Yes, alert!" others also said

Zi Ruoling shot me a glance filled with spirit and then said, "You have taken advantage of the situation."

I looked at Zi Ruoling and pleaded, "I beg you, otherwise I will..."

Upon seeing this, Lu Man immediately burst into tears, her voice filled with grief and indignation as she said, "No, I would rather die than jump."

Lu Man looked at us with hopeful eyes, but at that moment, no one responded to him

Her gaze lifted once more, but this time, there was no response

I understand. Zi Ruoling lowered her head, a hint of helplessness on her exquisite face

There can't be that many accidents; it must definitely be the work of Huangquan Loan

At this point, she collapsed onto the table and began to cry uncontrollably

However, one by one, they expressed their inability to help. Lu Man bit her lower lip, her delicate face pale.

I have never been moved by her, only out of sympathy. However, my sympathy cannot help her

At this moment, there is little time left

"Indeed, he treats us as if we are not human!" another boy scolded.

I nodded slightly and followed along with trembling legs. At that moment, the classmates in the class began to jeer, which made Ziruoling feel very embarrassed. She covered her face and walked out like that

When I arrived at the class, Huangquan Loan appeared once again

I have done my utmost to help her, but what more can I do? My family is not wealthy either

Lu Man hurriedly asked a few girls to lend her money. These girls were all her best friends

This amount of money is far from sufficient

I know, I thank you. I said to her sincerely as I looked at her

At that moment, someone shouted: "Call the police, we must catch him!"

When we rushed out, we found that the stairway was already crowded with people, and a group of nurses was performing emergency rescue.

The Underworld Loan has spoken again: "All of you owe me money. Whatever I want you to do, you must comply. If you dare to call the police, I will kill all of you!"

Especially some of the boys, at this moment, have very strange expressions. After all, Lu Man has a good figure and her appearance can be considered sweet. If she were to perform a striptease, it would probably be a feast for the eyes.

At this moment, others were also filled with righteous indignation, each one seething with anger

I glanced at Lu Man and also sat down on the chair, completely unsure of what to do

"Tang Qi, do not worry, Zi Ruoling has already agreed," Chang Yongjie advised.

It is no wonder, although they are all classmates, they should help each other in times of trouble. However, it is not only Lu Man who is in debt; the money everyone has is also intended for repaying debts

Upon seeing this, Lu Man immediately stood up and excitedly said: "Everyone, please help me. If you all give me the money in your hands, I will be able to repay my debts"

"What does this underworld loan take us for? Slaves? Whatever he wants us to do, we must do it!" Wang Kaize shouted angrily
