Apocalypse: The Supporting Actress Made a Comeback novel Chapter 52

Chapter 52: 050 Up to here

A man walked out from behind the hulking figure. He was shorter and seemed frailer than the hulking man; although he had an ordinary look, his composed demeanor and bright eyes involuntarily generated a certain likability.

He firmly grasped the hulking man's wrist, preventing him from rashly taking action. He politely nodded towards the Fang Family and then asked Lin Feiyin and Tian Tian, "Feiyin, Tian Tian, can you tell us what happened? Why did you suddenly start fighting?"

Killing and fighting were strictly prohibited in the Safe Zone, a rule many were already aware of. However, there was a severe shortage of manpower currently, and the personnel in charge of the Safe Zone couldn't possibly deploy a large number of people to maintain public order. Therefore, if someone did start a fight, it would be a while before anyone could intervene.

There were supposed to be soldiers standing guard in this Task Hall, but the actions of Tian Tian and Fang Yuxin were too sudden. Additionally, since neither party continued the fight afterward, these personnel did not interfere.

The speaker maintained a polite attitude while several people stood behind him, looking towards the Fang Family with traces of hostility in their eyes. However, they were not as impulsive as the hulking man and were waiting for the responses of Lin Feiyin and Tian Tian.

Seeing that he was rather reasonable and did not attack indiscriminately, Fang Yuxin spoke before Lin Feiyin and Tian Tian could, "Perhaps I should explain. We were about to approach the task window to accept a task when this woman suddenly blocked our way. I asked her to step aside and she refused. Then, this young lady burst out and accused me of having a bad attitude.

I asked her what the matter was, and she said she wanted to thank my brother and me for saving her life last time and asked what task we planned to accept, inviting us to join her. This young lady thought we were a burden, so my brother declined. That's when she suddenly attacked my brother, and I retaliated. She felt my response was too harsh; that's essentially what happened. Everyone present saw it; if you don't believe it, you can ask them if I'm wrong."

As soon as she finished talking, Bai Qianqian added, "This aunt was so unreasonable, claiming the older sister was young and that my Mama shouldn't have retaliated. If she hadn't run out blocking our way and letting the older sister try to hit my uncle, Mama wouldn't have fought back."

Lin Feiyin, seeing the narrative spiraling, quickly said, "That's not how it was! I... I merely recognized them as the people who saved me before and wanted to express my gratitude. Moreover, I didn't anticipate that Tian Tian would impulsively hurt someone." She didn't think it was her fault. Upon reflection, if Tian Tian hadn't suddenly attacked, the situation wouldn't have escalated this way.

As soon as she expressed this, Tian Tian's expression changed instantly, disbelievingly staring at Lin Feiyin. How could she have attacked someone if not to defend Lin Feiyin? Now, Lin Feiyin was shifting all the blame onto her! Recalling the entire incident, Tian Tian began to harbor resentment towards Lin Feiyin.

Holding her slightly aching stomach, Tian Tian's expression shifted several times, and her gaze gradually hardened. Instead of arguing with Lin Feiyin about who was right, she pushed away the man supporting her and said to the young man who had just spoken, "Brother Lu, I'm sorry, I was too impulsive... Ah!" She screamed out suddenly at the end, her brows tightly furrowing, clearly in pain.
