Peng Huijing couldn't quite tell if she'd heard wrong, but something about Su Xiaoxiao's words felt heavy with underlying threats. It made her heart race as though it might stop at any moment.
"It's good that they're caught. People like that should be exposed as soon as possible," Peng Huijing forced a sincere expression, trying to distance herself from her earlier slip-up.
But Su Xiaoxiao wasn't buying it, and the Zhang family was already well aware of what kind of person she was. None of them bothered to respond to her.
Grandpa Zhang and Granny Wang even took Su Xiaoxiao's hand and led her inside the yard.
Just as they entered, Su Xiaoxiao suddenly let out a small, "Ah," and her face shifted to one of nervousness and regret.
Even Jiang Yexun was startled.
"What's wrong?" He stepped forward, his voice gentle and concerned.
