This situation is pretty much as she expected, but when faced with it, she still felt anxious.
Xinghe sensed her emotions, and couldn't help but regret it.
If he had known earlier, he wouldn't have brought her along. If she got hurt, he'd regret it deeply.
He held Liu Mianmian tightly and glanced at the people who suddenly appeared in the courtyard, astonished: "You all are still alive, that's great! I thought I was the only one left! How did you manage to escape?"
Xie Fox responded with a question: "I should be asking how you escaped, and where did you find such a beautiful girl!"
With that, he grabbed a sword in one hand and reached to tug the veil on Liu Mianmian's face.
Liu Mianmian was so frightened that she recoiled her neck and turned her face away.
Xinghe laughed awkwardly: "She's not actually my sister; she's my beloved, and currently my wife... I was lucky to escape, all thanks to her!"
"As for using the alias 'sister,' it was to mislead others!"
