Aunt Hua was frightened while Yang Fan, who had not achieved his goal, left sadly.

After the two left, He Xiyan calmed down a little. In this remote area, there were also many barbaric acts. This time, she got to know that they could buy and sell people at will.

Even marriage was a business. The man’s family gave the bride’s family a sum of bride-price worth 100,000 to 200,000 yuan and the bride’s family did not need to give dowry. Thus, to the bride’s family, the direct confiscation of the bride-price seemed to be the gains by selling their daughter.

Many families managed to help their sons get married by selling their daughters. Some families, with several daughters, even earned hundreds of thousands yuan by selling their daughters and went to live in the downtown area.

At this time, Chen Jiahang came over. He frowned slightly, anger still remaining on his face. He went to He Xiyan and suddenly grabbed her shoulder. There was an elusive feeling in his eyes which He Xiyan could not understand.

He Xiyan opened her eyes wide and looked at him in great surprise. “Jiahang, you…”

However, before she finished her words, her whole body was suddenly pulled by him, and then she uncontrollably crashed into his broad embrace.

Chen Jiahang wrapped his hands around her waist and his strong chin rested on her head. Because of emotional fluctuation, he breathed hastily and his chest fluctuated fast.

He Xiyan became stiff and her body suddenly trembled a little. She bit her lip tightly, unable to react for a time.

She could feel the heat passed through his body and hear the sound of his breathing. Such feelings made her feel embarrassed and lost beyond words.

“It’s time for us to cook dinner.” She said, her face turning slightly red because of embarrassment.

She pushed him a little with her hand but could not push him away.

“Chen Jiahang, let go of me.” She said somewhat eagerly, feeling quite awkward towards his sudden acts. He had always respected her before and would not get so close to her.

What on earth was he going to do?
