The Shu family fell silent instantly, afraid to utter a word.
The dungeon head glanced at them and said, "I told you, after being locked up for a month, you should have learned your lesson. There are only two more days left, so don't cause trouble for me. Otherwise, I'll hang all of you at the city gate for everyone to see."
The Shu family shuddered involuntarily, and the fourth miss even took a step back.
Shu Yu quietly retreated to a corner, hugging her knees, not daring to make a sound.
Only then did the dungeon head snort coldly and walk away.
The sound of his footsteps echoed clearly in the cell. The Shu family remained silent until the sound gradually faded, then they let out a sigh of relief.
However, this time they dared not cause any more trouble. The fourth miss was pulled closer to the eldest miss.
But all the members of the Shu family couldn't help but look at Shu Yu sitting in the corner, their gazes filled with complex emotions.
After a long while, the eldest miss sneered and looked at Shu Yu, saying, "Even if you managed to escape before, what does it matter? You're caught again now."
Shu Yu raised her head, her voice buzzing, "But I'm still alive."
"You think being alive is so great? The day after tomorrow, we'll all be exiled together. Many accidents can happen on the way, and you might die on the road. And the way you die will be even more disgraceful. Maybe it would have been better if you had been drowned like before."
Shu Yu twitched her lips, as if she was the only one being exiled.
Did she think these words would only scare her?
Shu Yu glanced around. The other timid young ladies in the cell wore expressions of misery.
The eldest miss noticed it too and felt somewhat annoyed.
But she quickly raised her chin and said, "Don't think I'm trying to scare you. Although we're also being exiled, we're a family. We'll naturally take care of each other. But you're different. You're alone now! The dungeon head is strict with us here, but on the road to exile, who knows what might happen?"
The fourth miss smirked maliciously from the side, "The eldest sister is right. This wretched person looks good. Maybe we can hand her over to the guards along the way to play with. Perhaps we'll suffer less then. In that case, this wretched person actually has some use."
Initially, she had been a little worried. After all, they had all heard that young ladies on the road to exile were most likely to encounter trouble. Losing their lives would still be considered lucky, but what they feared the most was losing their innocence and then losing their lives. That would be an even more restless existence.
Before, she had been jealous of Shu Yu's good looks, but now she thought that Shu Yu was actually quite useful. She could serve as their scapegoat.
It was just her alone, while the Shu family had more than a dozen members.
After hearing this, the other members of the Shu family felt somewhat relieved. Without Shu Yu, they might have suffered instead.
Shu Yu squinted her eyes. They sure knew how to dream.
She couldn't be bothered to argue with them. She just curled up tighter, nestling herself in the farthest corner, motionless.
The fourth miss wanted to say more, but the eldest miss pulled her back and whispered, "No rush. It's only one more day. She'll have a hard time."
Shu Yu glanced at them from the corner of her eye and couldn't help but feel a sigh deep inside—The Shu family, who had been numb and lifeless, suddenly came alive because of her presence.
She truly was important, indispensable.
Shu Yu huddled even tighter, appearing to outsiders as a timid and weak girl who didn't even dare to argue with her own family.
