Chapter 1302 - 1301: How Does It Feel to Be Betrayed by Your Own People
Chapter 1301 How does it feel to be sold out by your own people
Pi Yuhua hurriedly shook her head. "I didn’t know her before. We’re not from the same place. We were just both sold into Tiger Valley, so we happened to end up on the same road.
Originally I didn’t know she was Commander Gu’s fiancée. Didn’t that Commander Gu come here last year to rescue people? That Commander Gu specifically asked if I and another woman who was sold in with me had been rescued, and he even met with us. At the time, to make his fiancée look good, he said he was saving us because of his fiancée.
Jiang Haiyan and I asked him who his fiancée was. He told us his fiancée was that Jiang Mengyu who was sold into Tiger Valley with us and jumped off a cliff halfway along the way."
She pointed at Mengyu. "She is Jiang Mengyu."
You Laoer looked at Mengyu, his eyes full of mockery. "How does it feel to be sold out by the very person you came to save? If you’re willing to be my village chief’s wife, I’ll avenge you."
As soon as he said that, Pi Yuhua was shocked. If Mengyu agreed to You Laoer and became the village chief’s wife, what would happen to her? What would happen to her younger brother?
Mengyu rolled her eyes hard. "Not much of a feeling." She looked at Pi Yuhua and gave a bitter smile. "That saying, ’pitiful people must have something hateful about them,’ really isn’t wrong.
You actually sold me out right in front of my face. Did it never occur to you that if I didn’t have some skills, how would I dare to come alone to save someone? Do I look like an idiot to you?"
As Mengyu spoke, she pointed at You Laoer and Tie Laosan and the others. "Look at them. They’re all talk, but they’ve never dared to actually lay a hand on me. Yet with you, the moment they say they’ll act, they act. Do you think they look like idiots?"
You Laoer, who had originally thought he’d already figured out Mengyu’s details and could make a move, froze again and didn’t dare do anything for the moment.
Yeah. They hadn’t rushed to act. First, because they wanted to play cat and mouse and enjoy the game;
Second, because Mengyu was too calm, which made them wary of acting rashly, so they wanted to probe her again and again;
Third, because this was their turf and Mengyu had come alone. Everything was in their control; they weren’t afraid she’d just fly away.
But now, hearing what Mengyu said, it sounded like they still hadn’t really figured her out?
They couldn’t help but all grow more vigilant inside.
Pi Yuhua was stunned. Yeah, why had You Laoer and the others been talking big with Mengyu all this time but never actually moved on her?
Were they wary of her?
If they were wary of her, naturally it was because she had something that made them wary.
Right. Since she dared to come alone to save her, she must have the ability to back it up; otherwise, she didn’t look like a fool, and unlike Pi Yuhua, she didn’t have a younger brother being used as leverage, so why would she walk herself into Tiger Valley?
Could it be that she’d bet on the wrong person?
She wanted to speak. Her mouth opened and closed, then closed and opened again, but she didn’t know what to say, so she just shut her mouth.
Mengyu sighed, raised her hand, and summoned the Amulet off her body into her own hand. "Since you don’t believe me, I’ll take this thing back."
Pi Yuhua panicked. "What did you take off me? That’s mine, hurry up and give it back."
"Heh." Mengyu let out a cold laugh. "What I took isn’t something that belongs to you. It’s just the Amulet I put on you earlier when I wanted to save you.
With this Amulet on you, no one could have done anything to you. Forget making you into a Shared Wife, they wouldn’t even have been able to land a hit on you. Even bullets wouldn’t have been able to kill you. But—"
