Chapter 299: Marriage Exchange
When Li Daniu questioned her, the fake bride panicked instantly.

Suddenly, a man stepped forward from the few female relatives in the courtyard.

"Da Niu, this is Guihua. Guihong regretted running away. Guihua is even younger than Guihong. You won't regret marrying her. Our Guihua can do everything and is very virtuous!"

"Yes, yes, yes, Guihong didn't want to marry you, why didn't she say so earlier? We came to check on her this morning, only to find that she was gone."

"Guihua means well and doesn't want to embarrass you. She also genuinely wants to spend her life with you. Let's leave it at that."

The person speaking gave Guihua a look, and the fake bride Guihua put on a high-pitched voice.

"Brother Da Niu, I'm no worse than Gui Hong. I'll definitely give you a son in the future, and we'll live a good life together, okay?"

Li Erniu was speechless.

"Are you all crazy?!"

Shi Xia nodded in agreement; he was indeed quite ill.

Li Erniu directly plucked the big red flower from his clothes and threw it on the ground.

"My girlfriend is Guihong, and I don't believe she's gone! Get out of my way, I need to go in and see!"

Li Daniu tried to force his way in, but the other party wouldn't let him.

The fake bride even started crying, looking aggrieved.

"Brother Da Niu, why are you making me feel awkward? I'm a virgin, marrying you is a win-win situation for you."

Shi Xia couldn't listen anymore.

"Do you think this is a farmers market, picking out vegetables? You think you can just change to another one if you don't like this one?"

"Leave far away!"

Shi Xia cursed, Li Daniu barged in, and an old lady from the other side suddenly sat down on the ground.

"Help! A soldier broke off his engagement and assaulted someone!"

"I can't live this life!"

Li Daniu stopped what he was doing; he was wearing his military uniform today.

Grass!
This feeling of frustration.

"Gui Hong!"

"Gui Hong!"

Li Daniu started calling out, but there was no response.

Li Daniu's face still showed disbelief. He couldn't believe that the girl he had his eye on would suddenly decide not to marry him at this time.

Even if he really regretted it, he felt that Gui Hong would have told him in advance.

"Gui Hong!"

"Brother Da Niu, Gui Hong is really gone! I'm willing to marry you, so please take me."

The courtyard became chaotic in the blink of an eye.

Shi Xia couldn't stand it anymore and pulled Li Dani away.

"Get back in line! You're a soldier, but I'm not, and neither are the villagers behind us!"

"Push him in!"

Shi Xia raised her arms and shouted, and the people behind her had long been unable to stand it any longer and were just waiting for her instructions.

The group of people on the fake bride's side were no match for the fishermen who were out at sea year-round pulling in fishing nets.

Li Daniu cleverly stood behind everyone, but he didn't make a move.

In less than half a minute, Shi Xia and her group were all inside.

Find someone!

I searched and searched, but it wasn't there.

The fake bride's family members have reappeared.

"I told you Guihong ran away, why didn't you believe me!"

“That girl took the betrothal gifts you gave her and ran away; she was just lying to you.”

"My osmanthus is truly devoted to you, why can't you see that?"

Again.

Li Daniu was still unwilling to give up.

"Boss, I want to look for her. Gui Hong wouldn't just leave without a word. Even if she doesn't like me, she wouldn't do something like this."

"Then let's find it!"

Shi Xia stepped onto the chair and began to give instructions.

"Hu Laosan, circle up all the family members of the fake bride."

"Uncle Xu went to the scrap yard to find a bald guy and told Shi Xia to ask him to help find someone."

After making the arrangements, Shi Xia walked towards the fake bride and her companions. "I'll give you one chance. Where did Gui Hong go?"

Shi Xia learned from Li Daniu that Gui Hong lived alone.

The daughter, who has a job and a house, is a prime target for the group of relatives who are considering a marriage exchange. They feel there's a high chance she'll be harmed.

Li Daniu once said that Guihong wanted to get married as soon as possible because her second uncle and grandmother's family always came to her workplace to make trouble, demanding that she move into her house and give her job to her second uncle's son.

Gui Hong is a strong-willed girl who has fought her second uncle and grandmother's family several times with a kitchen knife.

She earned a reputation for being domineering, and no one in the neighborhood dared to marry her. Even those who did were after her house.

Until a social gathering, she met Li Daniu, a simple-minded and honest man.

In the courtyard, Guihua and her family were surrounded by people from Hai Sandao.

"What are you trying to do? I'm telling you, soldiers can't beat civilians!"

Shi Xia scoffed and kicked out, striking Guihua's father in the face.

"You old codger, I'm not a soldier. Let me tell you, if I want to do something in this county, no one can stop me."

"It's okay if you don't tell me. I'm looking for someone, and I'll definitely find them. I need to see them alive or dead."

The fake bride's family was stubborn and refused to say anything, insisting that Guihong had left on her own.

Shi Xia didn't waste time with them; she used her supernatural abilities to search for them first.

However, searching like this was a waste of time, so she looked at Li Daniu and said, "Daniu, you go out."

Li Daniu immediately realized that Shi Xia was about to resort to drastic measures, and it was not good for him to be here.

"I'll go out and look for it."

Li Daniu went out.

The villagers cooperated very well with Shi Xia, surrounding her with their backs to her, so they didn't see anything.

"what are you doing!"

"I'm telling you, I'm going to report you to the military!"

Shi Xia walked towards the fake bride's younger brother.

"casual."

"Is this your only son?"

If you're going to attack, target the weakest point.

Five minutes later, Shi Xia rushed out of the yard, calling out to Li Daniu.

"The well in the west of the county!"

Li Daniu's head buzzed. He followed behind Shi Xia, his eyes bloodshot. How dare they?
Shi Xia, with her supernatural abilities, arrived earlier and discovered the girl in the well.

The girl stuck her ten fingers into the cracks of the well, and they were covered in blood, but she still refused to give up.

The rope had been taken away, and the moss-covered well was too slippery for Miao Guihong to climb up.

"I want to go up! I want to go up!"

"Li Daniu, you mustn't marry Guihua, you mustn't!"

"Don't marry her, no matter who you marry."

"Help! Help!"

Gui Hong screamed, but this was an abandoned well because many houses here had been destroyed during the previous tidal disaster.

The residents here were relocated to the other side of the county town and rebuilt their houses because the terrain here was too low.

Gui Hong could only hear her own echo, filled with despair and resentment.

Why!
She just wants to live, why is it so hard?

Why do some people always covet things that don't belong to them? Why is fate so unfair?

She really thought everything would be alright once she got married. Why, why!
Unwilling to give up, Gui Hong's strength in her arms was truly exhausted at this moment.

"Li Daniu, we are destined to meet but not to be together."

Her fingers loosened, and with a splash, Guihong fell into the well.

Her instinct was still to struggle, not wanting to give up, but she truly had no strength left.

Water overflowed her mouth, ears, and head.

The last glimmer of light disappeared.

Gui Hong wanted to close her eyes.

With a splash, the water parted.

Gui Hong blinked. How did she float out like that?

Could this be my soul?
