"But you see, Nian Nian and I, though we're twins, we don't look exactly the same. If I go to see the Immortal Master looking like this, wouldn't he…" Si Yang gulped and deliberately paused for a moment. Her entire body started shaking as though she were about to faint.
"Wouldn't he glance at me, see this unsightly look, and just snap my neck in an instant? And, and then... then what if he... ends the entire family, just like that, for daring to cheat him—"
Curses!
"What, what do you mean 'end our family line'?!"
"Are you insane?"
The couple gasped in horror, their faces blank with shock, as they stared at their daughter like she had just predicted the apocalypse.
Were they being cursed?
Is this girl trying to jinx their entire family's existence?
Nonsense, when exactly did they lie? Sure, they had promised to marry off their daughter to that old man, but they did not specify which one!
Besides, they hadn't exactly told the Immortal Master they even had two daughters.
