“Ah Guoguo, don’t you think it would actually be quite good if Ning Luo really never came back?” Ai Yi continued to whisper. “That way, no one would steal your spotlight anymore, and you would be the smartest female in the tribe.”
“Ai Yi, how can you say something like that?”
Ai Yi did not expect Tang Guo to suddenly stand up, nor did she expect her to look so furious.
“Ai Yi, Ning Luo might be facing unknown dangers right now. She has brought so many changes to our tribe. How can you say it would be better if she never came back?”
“Ai Yi, even if you like Gaien and want to become his mate, you should not use such vicious words to curse Ning Luo.”
Tang Guo looked genuinely angry. Her expression was so convincing that none of the tribe members doubted her words. They all began to look at Ai Yi with anger. Had Ai Yi really cursed Ning Luo, hoping she would never return?
“I… Ah Guoguo, you…” Ai Yi panicked and tried to say something to salvage the situation, but Tang Guo did not give her any chance.
“Did you just say that Ning Luo should not come back or not?”
Ai Yi felt all the tribe members staring at her. Her face grew increasingly flustered, and her reaction clearly showed that she had indeed said those words.
She truly had not expected Ah Guoguo to react so strongly. This Ah Guoguo was really foolish, speaking so loudly, as if afraid others would not hear.
“Ning Luo taught you how to make shoes. She also taught the tribe members how to recognize different spices and edible wild vegetables. Ai Yi, how can you be so ungrateful and curse her at a time like this?”
Tang Guo looked around at everyone present and raised her voice.
“I believe that the members of our Lado Tribe are grateful people. When we receive kindness, we do not forget it, and we would never give rise to such vicious thoughts.”
The crowd nodded one after another and began discussing among themselves. They were the most grateful people. They would always remember Ning Luo’s kindness and would never harbor such malicious thoughts.
“I have heard that once someone does something ungrateful, the gods will bring down severe punishment,” Tang Guo said solemnly, her expression almost sacred. This made the members present grow even more respectful.
“Ai Yi, I believe you were only being blunt for a moment and did not have truly evil intentions. In the future, do not say such vicious things again. Ning Luo has shown you kindness. To avoid divine punishment, I hope you can correct yourself and not harbor such selfish thoughts.”
“Even if you like Gaien, you cannot hate Ning Luo because of it.”
The members immediately echoed her words.
“That’s right, Ai Yi. We hope you can be a kind female and stop using vicious words to curse Ning Luo. Otherwise, the gods will punish you.”
“Yes. Ning Luo has brought us countless benefits and changed the way we live. We can drink delicious meat soup every day now. Ai Yi, what you did this time was truly wrong.”
Ai Yi stood in the middle, subjected to the gaze and condemnation of the entire tribe. Her face burned red.
She bit her lip and looked at them. She could not even explain herself. The problem was that those words really had come from her mouth.
This Ah Guoguo was truly foolish.
Really, she should never have said those things to her.
She could not even compare to an outsider like Ning Luo. Truly foolish.
Tang Guo did not care what resentment Ai Yi harbored in her heart. Seeing everyone look at Ai Yi with condemnation made her feel exceptionally good.
From now on, Ai Yi would not dare come bother her again. If she dared, Tang Guo would repeat her words loudly just like she had today.
So satisfying.
