Xiao Lansi, who was inside the room, naturally heard the commotion outside.
She instinctively backed away, wanting to turn and run. But a glance around confirmed the room was sealed shut. 'How can I possibly escape?'
Just as anxiety consumed her, the door behind her was violently kicked open!
A gust of wind and rain swept in, spattering silently across the floor.
Xiao Lansi's first reaction was to cover her face.
Even after all the torment she had endured, one fact was seared into her mind—'I'm already a dead woman!'
If anyone saw that she was still alive... what awaited her would be a true death.
Lian Zhou recognized Xiao Lansi in a single glance.
She was much thinner and more haggard, but her eyes were so distinctive it would be hard not to recognize her.
Lian Zhou grinned.
"Princess Yuhe, I trust you've been well?"
A jolt went through Xiao Lansi. 'So, I have been recognized… Wait a minute!'
She suddenly realized something and looked up in astonishment.
