Hu Yuting was blinded by the light in front of her. When she opened her eyes again, the spider demon was already gone. Only Lu Yao was standing alone, making her feel inexplicably safe.

Hu Yuting walked forward and asked softly, “Where’s the spider demon?”

“Cleaned up.” Lu Yao turned around and got into bed. She leaned against the pillow and closed her eyes to rest. Her voice was slightly tired.

Hu Yuting walked to the wall and turned on the lights. Under the light, she saw the traces of a fight in the room. The floor was in a mess, and the strong stench of spider demon lingered in the dormitory. She calmed herself down and walked up to Lu Yao. She probed, “Yaoyao, who are you? You can actually defeat such a huge monster. Did you learn from some expert? Or did you join an exorcism sect?”

Lu Yao relaxed on the bed and placed her hand on her abdomen, stroking it gently. Hearing this, she smiled. “Do you really not know who I am?”

As the daughter of one of the six great families, the Hu family would naturally investigate the background of anyone who appeared in her life.

Lu Yao grew up at the border and lived in a dangerous and evil mountain village. The people she interacted with were mostly evil people who licked the blood on the tip of their blades. She grew up at the border until she was 22 years old. Although there were occasional troubles, they were successfully resolved every time.

Lu Yao was a peerless beauty. In such a remote and backward place, there must be many men who coveted her body. Lu Yao relied on her fearless attitude and her fists to create a stable life for herself.

When she was twenty years old, a few men tried to bully her. She fought with that group of people alone. Even when she was knocked unconscious, she bit her lip and forced herself to stand up and continue fighting by relying on the pain in her body. Later, every one of those people had a leg broken by her.

It was at that time that Lu Yao gradually gained fame at the border. She did not tell everyone her real name and only called herself Lu Xiaoliu. At that time, almost everyone at the border knew that there was a young but ruthless and charming woman called Lu Xiaoliu.

Later, when the men who had coveted her and were ready to make a move heard that she was ruthless, they no longer dared to provoke her. No one knew what a soft and weak little girl had experienced to become the cold and ferocious person she was later on. She could even make those famous people at the border praise her.

Although the Lu Yao Hu Yuting knew was a quiet girl who didn’t like to talk, she still felt that the other party just didn’t want to expose her strength. She was still a very capable person. Hu Yuting was speechless when she heard what happened to Lu Yao at the border. She often thought that if she had been kidnapped and left in such a place, she might not have survived.

However, not only did Lu Yao survive in that place, but she also obtained the respect of those desperadoes who licked blood on the tip of their blades.

In the end, Lu Yao did not tell Hu Yuting what had happened to her. The fewer people who knew about some things, the better.

Some curiosity was better than none. The next day, Hu Yuting quit the paranormal club.

The world was huge, and there were many unknown things. Don’t think about challenging the unknown world with your mortal body, lest you die without knowing how.

Sunday was Lu Yao’s first day off since her rebirth. She had nothing to do, so she sat in the Capital Library and read popular science books on pregnancy and childbirth. In order to keep quiet, anyone who entered the library needed to turn their phone off or mute it.

Lu Yao looked down at the flickering screen of her phone. Song Qinglian had just sent her a message. Her originally warm and gentle expression quickly turned cold after seeing this message. Her eyes were as cold as ice.

She lifted her scarred but still white fingers and opened the message.

“Yaoyao, you haven’t been home for dinner in a long time. I’ll make a table of your favorite dishes tonight. Come back.”

Lu Yao sneered and looked at the seemingly considerate message on the screen sarcastically. She didn’t expect this woman to be so patient.

She believed that as soon as Song Miaomiao left the Crown Hotel that day, she would tell the other party what had happened. She had actually waited an entire week to find her.

Lu Yao sneered and replied, “Okay, I’ll be back tonight.”

She was really curious about how Song Qinglian and her daughter had arranged today’s banquet. No matter what the other party had planned, she would attend it. It had been a long time since she had seen the other party’s clumsy tricks, and she missed them.

Her good mood was disrupted by this sudden message. Lu Yao was no longer in the mood to read and turned to leave the library.
