After hearing his sister's account, Shen Xiaochuan turned pale with anger, clenched his fists, and roared through gritted teeth, "That bastard surnamed Xu dares to treat my sister like this! I'm going to find him and settle this score with him!"
He was about to get up and rush out the door when he said that.
Before Shen Xiaochuan could take a step, Shen Xiaoxiao quickly grabbed him and urged him on.
“Brother, these things haven’t actually happened yet. Even if you rush to his door to argue with him right now, it won’t do any good! He’ll just think you’re crazy.”
Standing to the side, Ma Aning frowned, looking ahead with a worried expression. She nodded frequently in agreement with her daughter's words and said with concern, "Yes, my daughter is absolutely right."
"Now that we know in advance what is likely to happen in the future, you should try to stay as far away from their house as possible."
As Ma Aning spoke, she gently patted her daughter's shoulder, seemingly trying to convey some comfort and strength.
"Don't worry, Mom. Whether what Jun Yanluo said is true or false is still hard to judge. But if all of this is true, I will definitely not let them off easily!"
Shen Xiaoxiao's tone was unusually firm, as if she had made up her mind. Her bright eyes were flashing with a cold light that sent chills down one's spine.
"Hmm, not bad. We can't be sure of its authenticity right now, but if what Lord Yama says is true, we certainly won't let them get away with it."
Shen Zishan, who had been silent all along, finally spoke.
When he heard about his daughter's tragic end, his heart ached as if it had been struck by a heavy hammer.
"Hmph! How dare you say that! Our daughter is only sixteen years old this year, and you almost arranged a marriage for her!"
Listen to what our daughter is saying! She's ruined her life so badly!
The more Ma Aning thought about it, the angrier she became. Her anger surged, and eventually, her voice involuntarily became tinged with a sob, and she even began to tremble slightly.
"Honey, don't cry! I already cancelled it, didn't I?! I really didn't expect things to turn out like this."
"Just relax, this marriage is definitely not going to happen."
"Let me prepare myself briefly, then I'll go find them and make this perfectly clear: my daughter will not marry."
Seeing his wife so grief-stricken, Shen Zishan panicked and rushed over to comfort her, gently patting her back to make sure she didn't hurt herself from being too upset.
At this moment, Shen Xiaoxiao watched her parents' little argument and thought to herself: Anyway, it seems that there's nothing for me to do here.
She quietly tugged at her brother Shen Xiaochuan's sleeve, who also looked helpless, and while their parents weren't looking, the two of them tiptoed out of the house without making a sound.
Once they were out of the room, Shen Xiaoxiao let out a long sigh of relief, turned to Shen Xiaochuan beside her, and asked in a low voice, "Brother, should we leave this matter for now?"
"Because I only heard it from King Yama, and I haven't personally experienced those things, I don't want to have any involvement with his family at the moment."
"If that despicable woman dares to come up to me again and try to harm me, humph, I will never forgive her easily!" Shen Xiaoxiao said, patting her chest reassuringly.
At this moment, Shen Xiaochuan's brows furrowed tightly, like two earthworms twisted together.
He said with a serious expression, "Sister, we can't always be in a passive state like this. We can't just sit here and wait for others to come to us and cause us a lot of trouble before we think about fighting back."
Upon hearing her brother's words, Shen Xiaoxiao immediately tilted her head to one side, blinked her big, bright eyes, and asked very seriously, "Brother, do you have any brilliant ideas? Tell me quickly!"
After pondering for a moment, Shen Xiaochuan replied, "Hmm... I plan to investigate secretly first to see if the woman you mentioned actually exists. However, in my opinion, there's a high chance this will actually happen."
After hearing her brother's words, Shen Xiaoxiao looked puzzled and quickly asked, "Brother, why is that?"
“Jun Yanluo is one of the Ten Kings of Hell, he would never joke about something so trivial with us mere mortals.” Shen Xiaochuan frowned.
