The Female Cannon Fodder With Boundless Merits-Chapter 1284 - 1288: Queen of the Entertainment Industry (8)
Su Li kept a stern face, turned around, and walked into the room. As she turned her head, she cast a deep glance upward in a certain direction.
Wu Xiaogang followed behind Su Li, moving mechanically and blankly as if he had lost his soul, step by step, entering the room with her.
With a "bang", the door closed by itself without any wind, cutting everything off from the outside, as if dividing into two separate spaces.
When Wu Xiaogang regained consciousness, he was still dumbfounded.
But quickly, he remembered the fantastical scene he had witnessed earlier and began to scream instinctively.
However, though he opened his mouth again and again, only the slightest hissing sound emerged, and he couldn’t hear his own familiar voice.
Had he gone mute?
That’s it, it must be because he saw those supernatural things that he ended up like this.
If it were up to him, he would do something even more drastic.
What mute? Only a dead man’s mouth is truly closed.
Wu Xiaogang’s legs trembled from the thoughts and fears he conjured, as if he might lose control at any moment.
Terrifying, how utterly terrifying... How did he get so unlucky?
Along with this, he harbored a bit of resentment towards his beloved Goddess Xu.
If it weren’t for her veiled hints on a talk show, he wouldn’t have acted so impulsively.
Anyway, there’s no point in regretting it now.
Wu Xiaogang was overwhelmed with terror, which only slightly subsided after some time.
As he calmed down a bit, he realized something was wrong with himself.
The world seemed to have become enormously large in his eyes.
The rosebuds hanging on the nearby branches were as big as two or three of his heads.
Wu Xiaogang wondered, are there really such big roses in the world?
Looking closely, he found himself as if he had entered a gigantic primitive forest.
Not only were the roses that large, but all the surrounding plants were colossal, making him seem very small in comparison.
The fear Wu Xiaogang had just managed to calm down suddenly skyrocketed again.
How did he end up here? And how was it possible?
But soon, he faced a new problem. He wanted to run, but found that though his brain issued the command, his body refused to obey.
In other words, his whole body was stiff as if paralyzed.
Using all his strength, he twisted a few times, but apart from moving his neck a little and some subtle swaying of his body, his feet seemed rooted, immobile.
That’s right, his feeling was accurate; his feet had indeed taken root.
Because... he had turned into a plant.
It was only when Wu Xiaogang saw Su Xiaohua, now as towering as a giant, swaying with a watering can as she approached, that he realized.
He wasn’t in a gigantic primitive forest but was on the balcony of Su Xiaohua’s house.
Straining to look up, through the clusters of branches and leaves, he could vaguely see the sunlight streaming in from the ceiling above.
Wu Xiaogang shouted at Su Li, "You demon, what have you done to me?"
"Let me go quickly, or I’ll make you regret it. I’m telling you, people will soon notice I’m missing and will trace it back to you. You’ll be exposed....."
"After the founding of the nation, demons are not allowed; you’ll definitely be captured and then...."
Wu Xiaogang grimaced, speaking viciously, as if he could already see the impending fate of Su Li, chuckling gleefully.
But as he laughed, he suddenly broke down sobbing, apologizing with tears and snot streaming down his face.
"I’m sorry, please, let me go."
"Money, yes, I have lots of money. I can give it to you if you’ll just let me go... Maybe you want to get back in the limelight, that’s okay, my father has many connections; as long as I say the word, I can make sure you reach the same level as Xu Jinzhi."
"Xu Jinzhi was so smooth going up because of my help.... I can help you too."
"What’s a Luo Jian compared to what I can do? With my help, he’d be on his knees begging you."
Wu Xiaogang rambled on, crying and shouting, but in his ears, there was only the rustling sound of shaking leaves.
He couldn’t tell if the other party heard him or not.
Su Li: "Stop howling, if you keep it up, I’ll turn you into flower fertilizer."
Wu Xiaogang instinctively shut his mouth tight.
"You, can hear me?"
Seeing Su Li look directly at him, Wu Xiaogang’s arrogance rose again, snarling and baring his teeth at her.
A moment ago, he remembered that the security guards saw him entering this community; it wouldn’t be long before they noticed his disappearance.
This realization made him shake again.
Laughing maniacally, he said: "Let me go now, or... you won’t know what it’s like to incur my wrath."
Su Li snorted coldly, reaching out to pull Wu Xiaogang up.
"You’ll make my roses great flower fertilizer."
Wu Xiaogang was thrown into a flower pot as big as a stadium.
Then he experienced the simple life of roses.
"The soil is a bit dry today; it’s time to water."
Wu Xiaogang didn’t have time to react before he was drenched painfully by a torrent of water from above.
Soon, the intense sunlight outside scorched him painfully.
He wasn’t sure how long it took, but he suddenly spotted a grotesque bug half his height crawling around him.
He was almost frightened out of his wits; it was terrifying...
And they came in droves, swarming towards him.
"Eh, aphids, huh?"
As soon as Su Xiaohua’s malicious voice fell, Wu Xiaogang was covered in a sticky, smelly, green liquid.
Su Li actually crushed those bugs bare-handed.
To Wu Xiaogang, those large insect corpses hung deflated on the branches next to him, utterly horrifying.
Before he finished catching his breath, he noticed more red spiders appearing out of nowhere, starting to weave webs above his head.
Soon, a slightly corrosive smell of medicine came down like gentle rain, and the red spiders disappeared, leaving Wu Xiaogang pitted and scarred by corrosion.
"Oh dear, the dilution of the medicine wasn’t enough, the concentration was a bit too high."
Wu Xiaogang began to feel dazed, losing track of what day it was.
Time seemed meaningless to him; he even began to lose grasp of whether he was human or a plant, or something else entirely.
But a wretchedly foul odor jolted his senses back a bit.
As he regained clarity, he was suddenly buried under a pile of black stuff, leaving just his head poking out in the wind.
