A 21st-century modern person, due to one night of indulgence, had mysteriously arrived in an unknown ancient time and become a prisoner. Heaven was playing a huge joke on her…
Chapter 028
Self-pity was not Shan Xiaoya’s style. She gathered her spirits and looked around. This was a well-equipped small courtyard. Except for the locked main gate, there were rooms, a kitchen, and a large yard. There was nearly half a bucket of rice in the kitchen’s wooden bucket, and a well in the corner of the yard. Surprisingly, water could still be drawn from the well – there was hope after all! The bedding on the room’s bed was moldy and gave off a faint unpleasant smell…
Shan Xiaoya knew she would be staying in this courtyard for a while. Her left arm was completely useless, like a disability.

Do you know your love is like a flame burning my heart, burning my pride until it has nowhere to escape? Your love is like a flame, I simmer in longing, the entire grassland drifting with the scent of love.”
Hu Yannan walked forward, vaguely hearing the song ahead. Some nerve endings in his heart were stirred by the song, creating ripples… Unconsciously, he followed the song, curious to know who was singing so beautifully and passionately in his residence…
