Primordial Wilderness: I Am Hong Yun, Trading My Saint Position for a Wife at the Start, Section 632

How could I not know what each of you was thinking?

Yet not one of you would say it.

Fine. If none of you will speak, then I, Yuan Shi, will!

I'll be the villain.

With a trace of indignation in his eyes, Yuan Shi spoke at once:
