"Lin Shan, if you really want to help me, please take me away! If I stay, sooner or later my parents will trade me for a dowry!" Shen Xiaoran mustered the courage to speak her mind, "To them, I'm only worth some dowry! If you don't take me away, I'm not saying I won't repay you, but sooner or later my parents will still trade me for a dowry! Don't worry! I won't cling to you! Just take me away from here! I'll work to repay the five hundred yuan!"
Lin Shan was a bit taken aback. He indeed helped her not to buy her, but what she said wasn't wrong. If he didn't take her away, her mother would definitely sell her again.
So, he nodded, "Alright, but don't get me wrong, I'm not buying you!" Lin Shan clarified his words.
Shen Xiaoran's eyes dimmed a bit; she originally thought she could marry him, but now, she could only take one step at a time.
"Got it! Don't worry! I won't be like my mom!" Shen Xiaoran assured, "I promise not to force you!"
