“Young mistress, it has been a tiring day. Go to bed.”

She finally finished her work for the day. Yu Niang was so tired that she could barely keep her eyes open. But Yu Shuya sat by the window thinking about Master Yuzhi she met today.

She did not see Master Yuzhi again after they prepared lunch.

Despite that, she felt that Master Yuzhi would not let her off just like that.

What she was concerned about was the reason Master Yuzhi had such strong murderous intent towards her. And this problem was enough to keep her busy to wonder about the other thought she had about Master Yuzhi. Why was an assassin hiding in a nunnery for six years?

What was the secret concealed in this nunnery, having extraordinary figures like Master Yuyan and Master Yuzhi hiding in this place for years?

“Yu Niang, you can sleep first. I’m not tired.”

Yu Shuya held on to the hand of her wet nurse coquettishly and gave her a big smile, asking Yu Niang to go to bed first.

“It is very late, young mistress. You should really go to bed now.”

It was unexpected to Yu Shuya that a skinny, weak person like Yu Niang could carry her to bed and snuck her under the cover.

Yu Shuya examined her frail, skinny body. Perhaps there was not much meat under her skin on a child-like body like hers.

“Young mistress, you can tell me if you have anything in your mind. See how tightly knitted your eyebrows are.”

Yu Niang stroked the space between her eyebrows, attempting to smoothen them as she asked her about the matter that was bothering her.

“Yu Niang, can you tell me more about the nunnery? I want to hear them.”

Since Yu Niang was the one to bring up the matter that bothered her, she would seize the opportunity to ask. But when she saw the tired eyes of Yu Niang, she gave up.

“Yu Niang, I’ll listen to them tomorrow.”

Yu Niang knew that Yu Shuya was considerate towards her and did not press on about the stories. She stroked Yu Shuya’s back and gazed at her with smiling eyes. She spoke.

When Yu Shuya saw Yu Niang’s effort to open her eyes to tell her stories, she quickly said, “I know.” Then she snuck under the cover, with her head hidden in it as well.

“Yu Niang, I’m sleeping. I’m sleeping now. Let’s talk tomorrow.”

Yu Niang smiled at the child’s action and continued to speak.

“Young mistress, Master Miao Jun was not the scariest one in this nunnery. The worst one is…”

That was what Yu Shuya was trying to find out. Who was the most powerful one in the nunnery? But Yu Niang stopped talking. When Yu Shuya took off the cover to look at Yu Niang, she found Yu Niang to have fallen asleep.

Although she wanted Yu Niang to rest, it annoyed her when Yu Niang fell asleep when she was about to tell her the main content of the story.

Yu Shuya couldn’t help scratching her head, thinking about the most powerful nun in the nunnery. How was she, as a person, to be even worse than Master Miao Jun?

Just as she was racking her brain, Yu Shuya heard some movement from the outside.

She listened attentively, feeling that the movement was right beside her.

And she was sleeping by the window.

She turned to look outside through the half-opened window to see a long-haired woman clad in red with her back facing the window.

Yu Shuya’s heart constricted when she glimpsed the woman before her eyes. Her heart throbbed violently.

She controlled her breathing so that her breathing would not alarm the woman outside the window.

She kept chanting the core socialist values to herself in her heart to calm herself down.

In her past life, she wouldn’t even be afraid to stand in the graveyard, as she was an atheist and did not believe in the existence of ghosts.

But after she went through the time-traveling, it was hard for her not to believe in supernatural powers.

But the sound of her breathing was still audible in the silence of the night despite her effort to keep them down.

The woman in red moved a little and slowly turned around.

Yu Shuya screamed through her muffled mouth and shuddered uncontrollably under the cover.

The woman turned her head around. But her messy hair had fully covered her face. Since she had waist-length hair and was covering both front and back, Yu Shuya couldn’t tell the location of her head.
