Processing Plant 5

After the man left, Su Man closed the door. She first administered an injection to Tingting, and then gave the remaining one to Huang Xin. "This will ease your pain."

This was the injection capable of removing negative effects. With Su Man's current financial means, purchasing two vials was effortless.

Huang Xin hesitated for a moment while holding the syringe, until the next second, she saw Tingting open her eyes in a daze.

Without a second thought, she plunged the needle directly into her own ankle.

Within moments, the pain in her ankle vanished, and she was so excited she was almost moved to tears.

Su Man had no time to deal with her and looked instead at Tingting. "Are you alright? I saved you."

She had no intention of letting anyone else take credit that was rightfully hers.

Tingting's expression was one of astonishment. After taking a couple of seconds to process what had happened, she suddenly burst into tears. "I actually didn't die. I actually survived. Heaven truly hasn't forsaken me."

"It's not heaven that hasn't forsaken you, it's me who saved you," Su Man repeated.

"Thank you." After the wave of excitement passed, Tingting reverted to her timid demeanor and expressed her gratitude in an extremely soft voice. "Thank you so much. I'll repay you in the future."

"No need to wait for the future, let's start with right now," Su Man said. "Explain to me what is going on here."

Tingting glanced at Huang Xin, who let out a cold snort and lowered her head, refusing to look back.

Tingting let out a soft sigh.

Su Man took note of the interaction between the two of them but said nothing.

"Actually, this place is just a breeding farm. As you saw, some of the food in the back is meant for the pigs in the pens, while another portion is used to lure and capture wild pigs."

Tingting also touched upon the matter of Su Man rescuing them. "We can consider ourselves lucky that you didn't touch anything you shouldn't have; otherwise, the three of us would have been the ones captured."

Tingting rambled on and on, but none of it was what Su Man wanted to hear.

Su Man stared straight at her, causing Tingting's voice to grow softer and softer until she finally fell silent.

Su Man said, "You know what I want to hear. For instance, why Brother Zhu beat you; for instance, the relationship between you and Huang Xin; and for another instance, whatever could possibly be in this breeding ground that frightened those pigs so much? And why, when I was merely standing there, did those pigs insist on attacking me?"

Pausing for a moment, she continued, "I feel like those pigs are abnormal. I saved your life, so surely I'm entitled to hear about these things."

Tingting was silent for a fleeting moment before speaking in a heavy tone, "I know all about the things you mentioned, but there is no way I can tell you."

Seeing Su Man frown, she anxiously explained, "It's not that I truly don't want to tell you, but if I speak of it, I will die."

After a second of silence, she added dejectedly, "Having died once, I don't want to die again."

Huang Xin let out a sneer.

Su Man's gaze shifted to her.

The smile on Huang Xin's face instantly froze. "I... I can't talk about it either. If I say it, I really will die."

Su Man tapped her fingers lightly on the table. "If you can't talk about this, and you can't talk about that, then there was no point in me wasting the effort to save you two."

The two of them fell silent together, their palms tightly clenched in guilt.

In the end, it was Tingting who spoke up as if having made a firm resolution, "If you really want to know what it is that frightened those pigs, just go over there tonight. You will see the truth you are looking for."

Her gaze was exceptionally earnest. Su Man pondered for two seconds. "Will I definitely see it if I go at night?"

Tingting nodded with absolute certainty. "You will definitely see it."

Huang Xin looked at Tingting in shock, as if believing she had lost her mind to reveal all this, and lowered her voice. "Have you lost your mind?"
