"No wonder the moment I stepped into the Miao Village, everyone's stares at me were so odd!"
"No wonder Shanwa looked at me and said I was the new bride!"
The thought that Zhang Feng actually deceived her into coming here to be the bride sacrificed to the Cave God filled Xia Ziyu with a wave of panic.
"Why?"
"Why does Zhang Feng want to harm me like this?"
Just then, Xia Ziyu suddenly heard voices speaking outside.
Startled, she hastily turned off the light.
And lay down on the bed.
Moments later, whispers and hushed discussions faintly came from outside the window.
"You, his father... make sure to keep a close eye out!"
"I know, don't worry. This is a matter of life and death for Afeng, I'll certainly keep watch!"
"Mhm, good that you know!"
"Afeng finally managed to find someone to bring back. If you lose her, I won't have time to find another scapegoat!"
"It's a pity, if it weren't for Afeng, I would've liked to keep her as a daughter-in-law!"
