So where is there a dog? She could clearly understand human speech.
Jiang Nanshu knocked again, "Who are you?"
There was no response inside.
Jiang Nanshu waited a moment, but the person inside still did not speak.
Jiang Nanshu asked another question, "Can you speak? Answer me."
She waited about a minute, but still there was no movement inside.
Jiang Nanshu looked at the lock; without the key, there was simply no way to open it.
Calls of anxious servants came from outside.
Jiang Nanshu frowned and dropped a sentence, "Wait here while I go find the key to let you out."
She didn't know which word had struck a nerve in the person inside.
The chains were smashed loudly.
Jiang Nanshu walked out, pretending to admire the scenery in the estate's park.
The servants found her and finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"Madam, the master is calling you for dinner."
Jiang Nanshu asked what time it was; it turned out to be six o'clock in the evening.
