HappyNovelChapter 140: Chapter 140: Better Killwith One Strike
Outside, thunder and lightning raged, and An Ruo couldn't sleep, her eyes fixed on the scene outside the
window.
Having not eaten enough for several days, her stomach was very hungry, and she was enduring severe
discomfort. Today, Tang Yuchen hadn't returned, so she decided to go downstairs to find something to eat.
Because of the thunder and lightning, she could see things clearly even without turning on the lights.
Groping her way to the kitchen, An Ruo took two apples from the refrigerator and planned to head upstairs.
Just as she entered the living room, suddenly a tall shadow cast from behind her appeared in front of her. An Ruo
sharply turned around and saw a dark figure standing behind her. Fearfully and without thinking, she raised her
hand and viciously threw an apple at it.
The apple struck the person's face, and he immediately clutched his nose, emitting a pained grunt.

Hearing his voice, An Ruo, not knowing what she was thinking, raised the second apple and threw it even harder
at his forehead.
"An Ruo!" the shadow bellowed in anger. He quickly grabbed her wrist, holding it tightly, and gritted his teeth as
he demanded, "You did that on purpose, didn’t you?"
An Ruo blinked and shook off his hand, "Do you not know that scaring people can scare them to death? What are
you doing standing behindfor no reason? Besides, it's dark and | cannot see anything. How was | supposed
to know it was you?"
"You..." Tang Yuchen, infuriated, strode to turn on the lights, and the whole living room instantly becas
bright as daylight.
The man turned around and glared at her fiercely. Seeing him, An Ruo couldn’t help but burst into laughter.
"What are you laughing at!" Tang Yuchen beceven angrier. Suddenly, he felt something drop on the floor,
and upon looking down, he saw it was a drop of blood.
Damn, his nose was bleeding!
Hastily retrieving a tissue to wipe off the blood, he looked sinisterly towards An Ruo, catching the schadenfreude
in her eyes.
If she hadn't hit him with the apple, would he be losing face by bleeding?
The more he thought about it, the angrier he became, and the more embarrassed he felt.
Glancing at the apple on the floor, he said with a cold and sinister smile, "Didn't | say you are not allowed to eat?
Yet you dare sneak apples to eat secretly! No wonder you're not hungry. It turns out you've been playing the
thief at night."
Unabashed, An Ruo retorted, "You only said | wasn’t allowed to have meals, not that | couldn't have fruit. Tang
Yuchen, don’t be so petty. If you're unwilling to feed me, then letgo. | can find my own food and won't use a
penny of yours."
The man smirked nastily, "Let you go? Wishful thinking! You are my possession, and | will deal with you however
| want!"

An Ruo coldly laughed, "If your ultimate goal is to starveto death, | think you might as well killwith one
strike and be done with it."
Seeing the fruit knife on the table, she walked over, picked it up, and thrust it into his hand, "Go on, killnow.
I'd rather you killedthan letstarve to death. By the way, I'm going to the kitchen now to prepare
something to eat. If you truly won't leteat, then plunge the knife into my body."
Having said that, she turned around and walked calmly toward the kitchen, not at all worried that he might
actually kill her.
Tang Yuchen watched her retreating figure, his lips curling into a slight smile, his gaze deep and complex.
"Woman, if you agree to makesomething to eat, I'll allow you to eat. If you don’t agree, I'll feed you fruit
every day!"
An Ruo stopped in her tracks, but she didn’t turn around, "Fine."
It was just about making an extra dish, nothing too significant.
She wouldn't make things difficult for her own stomach. She intended to live well and treat herself even better.
