"I...I..."
Daya's mother's words were stuck in her throat; she couldn't say a word.
Could she really say that she wanted to throw herself into the Clan Leader's arms to complain, but failed and instead fell and chipped her front tooth?
Not to mention saying it in front of Aunt Kang, she didn't dare say it in front of anyone else either.
"I didn't..."
With her mouth full of blood, she could only stand up on her own, using her sleeve to wipe the blood from her mouth, pretending that what just happened never did.
All the pain, all the suffering, she could only swallow them by herself. What else could she do?
Especially with the Clan Leader's chilling gaze upon her, if she said anything else, she feared that she wouldn't need An Jiuyue to deal with her; the Clan Leader himself would eat her alive.
"Nothing happened, I just lost my footing for a moment, just lost my footing and fell."
