She had never suffered such humiliation in all her life, so ashamed she wished for death but could not manage it. Tears streamed down her face.
She struggled repeatedly, trying to escape, only to be casually dragged back by Zhao Shanqi, who continued to toy with her.
"Alas, the daughter of the Sect Master, our Sect Master has a daughter too, not nearly as pretty as you, but oh so haughty. Wretched girl, what are you crying for? It's me who should be weeping. If it weren't for you, how could I have been dragged to this place? If I'm not venting on you, then on whom? Stop crying, it hasn't even started yet. Quickly, assume the noble demeanor you're used to, or I'll have to punish you..."
Amid Zhao Shanqi's mockery and teasing, there was a buzzing outside, as though someone was yelling and shouting.
The ice in the cave was too thick, soundproofing it well, and with the entrance twisted and descending, it was hard to make out who was shouting.
