Her lips were moving as she tried to speak. Her throat must have been sore from screaming so much, which was why she hadn't spoken earlier. Besides being unfamiliar with the people at her second brother's house, she didn't know what to say. Now, with both her internal organs and throat in pain, she finally managed to open her mouth, but her voice was so hoarse that no one could hear her.
"Wife, are you feeling unwell? I'll take you back..." Xiao Yishan wanted to help Su Qingyue to leave.
"Let go of me...!" She screamed again, her voice hoarse like a male goose honking. She managed to utter only a few words, each accompanied by choking.
Since his wife seemed a bit agitated, Xiao Yishan thought she was planning to commit suicide and tried to pull her to a shallower part of the river.
