“I heard everything you said.”
Su Qingzhi spoke frankly.
The wind blew a stray hair across her forehead, and she raised her hand to brush it away, but her gaze never left Zhu Xiuqin's face.
"So what if you hear it?"
Zhu Xiuqin sneered.
"You think you can go and file a complaint? Or go to the village chief for justice? Do you think anyone would believe the words of an outsider like you who's been sent down to the countryside?"
She spoke with a tone full of disdain.
Su Qingzhi glanced at her stubbornness and looked out of the cave dwelling.
