Falling for the Contract Bride

Chapter 267 Scram if You Are Not Going To Wear It

Mu Zhi cowered and took a few steps back.

She was covered in goosebumps after hearing the explanation.

She looked at the person dumbfoundedly and asked with anxiety, “What about now? What day is it?”

She had been locked up for too long and was in fear all the time that she lost track of the day and time.

The woman’s voice rang clearly in the silence, adding terror to whoever was listening.

She said, “Today is the lucky day, Friday.”

At the same time, a glimpse of light shone from outside. A man strode in slowly through the door.

Mu Zhi stared blankly at the big men who walked in, then hurriedly hid at the back.

The endless traumatisms she experienced for the last few days had made her forget what terror was. Other than retreating or trying to escape, she was clueless about what else she could do.

“Alright, time to collect your photos!”

The man on the lead bellowed impatiently as he hit the steel cages with a stick. Almost immediately, a few women beside Mu Zhi stood up and slowly walked towards the man.

One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine…

Mu Zhi stared blankly at those women while she counted nine of them!

Why were these women so submissive?

Their faces carried no signs or any will to escape. Fear was even absent from their faces. There was only… despair!

Mu Zhi was even more terrified.

The woman earlier on had asked her if it was the first time she was sold. So what if it was?

Were all first-timers like this?
