Lu Yanqing frowned and looked in the direction Zhang Ruyu had been looking. Outside, the wind was howling and the world was a blinding white.

Forget about people, you can't even see a shadow...

Panting heavily, Zhang Ruyu ran a long way in one breath, and the servant behind him tried his best to catch up but could not keep up with Zhang Ruyu's pace.

Zhang Ruyu muttered to herself, "It's a ghost, it's a ghost..."

"Have you seen that woman?" Zhang Ruyu's face grew even paler, and he suddenly reached out and grabbed the collar of the person next to him.

The people nearby looked at each other in bewilderment.

"Which woman? I didn't see her..." came the unanimous reply.

Zhang Ruyu was bewildered in the snow.

Zhang Ruyu's face was pale, and his head was buzzing. The servant next to him didn't dare to utter a sound.

He reached out and touched his beautiful face, which was now bandaged.

The Zhang family is extremely wealthy, and he is always surrounded by so many people.

That woman... she can hit him whenever she wants, threaten him whenever she wants, and yet no one can see her.

Only you can see it.

Zhang Ruyu became increasingly frightened and terrified as she thought about it.

"Quickly go and invite a master to come and perform a ritual to exorcise the evil spirits for me!" Zhang Ruyu got goosebumps all over his body, and his teeth chattered.

I don't know if it was the cold wind that scared me, or if I was frightened by my own vivid imagination.

Zhang Ruyu went back and performed a Buddhist ritual, inviting a monk from a temple and a Taoist priest from a Taoist temple.

The monks chanted sutras and beat drums, while the Taoist priests pasted talismans everywhere.

The Zhang residence has become a chaotic mess.

Master Zhang was furious and reprimanded Zhang Ruyu that very night.

Zhang Ruyu mysteriously said that she was being haunted by a female ghost.

Master Zhang was even angrier and scolded Zhang Ruyu, saying that if Zhang Ruyu failed to get into the top class in the academy exam in a few days, Master Zhang would cut off the money he gave Zhang Ruyu.

Zhang Ruyu was a poor student, and with the academy's rigorous exams, she was always at the bottom of the class.

Zhang Ruyu's already stressful life was further burdened by poverty.

Night fell; it was the twelfth lunar month.

The weather in Jiangnan was getting colder and colder. After class, Lu Yanqing was packing up her books in the classroom.

He was always the last one to come out.

But nowadays, Lu Yanqing is always the first to leave.

He glanced at the heavy snow falling outside and thought about the words Wen Nan always had on his lips.

She would take him to and from school.

It's not good to make her wait any longer.

As usual, Lu Yanqing went out and, sure enough, saw Wen Nan at the door. Wen Nan was still wearing the same yellow clothes.

The hood of the cloak covered half of the woman's face, revealing only her pert nose and pink lips.

Upon seeing the person emerge, Wen Nan reached out and lifted the hood of her cloak, revealing a pair of almond-shaped eyes that were large and bright. Wen Nan walked over slowly.

With her eyes curving into crescents, Wen Nan tilted her head slightly and stood still in front of Lu Yanqing.

"Husband, I've come to pick you up from school." The woman's voice was soft and sweet.

However, Lu Yanqing looked at Wen Nan and said that while Wen Nan was indeed gentle and weak, she couldn't really be described as such.

Wen Nan was able to carry him, a grown man, steadily on his back.

Although the two were husband and wife, they didn't know each other very well.

Was she always this strong?

Lu Yanqing was unaware.

But one can only conclude that... Wen Nan is exceptionally gifted and possesses immense strength.

He nodded slightly. The two walked towards the oxcart.

The oxcart didn't stop at the elegant academy, but at the city gate.

Wen Nan lowered her head slightly, reached into her clothes and took something out, then suddenly stuffed it into Lu Yanqing's hand.
