Ye Qiao only remembered to turn on her phone after changing her clothes. She had turned it off before because she did not want to be disturbed.
"Lu Xiaogun, you weren't watching me, were you?" Was it not too late to ask?
"Stupid!" Lu Xiaogun cursed.
"Xiaogun! Xiaogun, you are here! Quickly! Tell mummy... will your daddy be in danger at the Hunter School in the free state?!" This was what she cared about the most. She was afraid that the tragedy of her previous life would be brought forward.
"Daddy would be safe!" Lu Xiaogun said assuredly. Nevertheless, daddy would have to suffer a lot... but he could not bear to tell mummy.
Ye Qiao heaved a sigh of relief; she was finally reassured.

Next door, Lu Beixiao's grandparents saw their grandson return in his formal uniform... They were so happy!
The old lady wanted to make birthday noodles for her grandson, but Beixiao said he just wanted to have chicken soup; he stared at the chicken cage under the tree. "Chi! Go catch that chicken! The black one!"
As Beixiao instructed, Lu Beichi, who admired him so much, went to execute his order immediately.
"Xiao Xiao, was the food at the military camp bad? I thought you used to hate drinking soup?" The old lady asked. She was feeling rather distressed.
"Grandma, the meals there were all red meat. We never had any soup to drink!" Lu Beixiao said with a smile.
"That's true! You all have to eat meat to be stronger. You must be lacking in nourishment without soup!" Then, the old lady said hurriedly, "Xiao Zhang, quickly boil some water! Take the pressure cooker out and simmer the soup. That way, it would take a shorter time to cook!"
Beixiao's grandpa, who was watering the plants on the side, heard what Beixiao said. He glanced and said nothing, but he knew exactly what Beixiao was thinking! Only the stupid old lady would have believed what Beixiao said!
Lu Beichi caught the black chicken that they had been raising for some time, but the nanny did not dare to kill it.
With his own hands, Beixiao pulled out a bunch of hair from the chicken's neck, grabbed a knife, and then cut through its throat and let it bleed.
'Dear chicken, I am doing this for my wifey. I'm sorry... but you should feel proud.'
By now, Beixiao could already start to smell the scent of the chicken soup, but there was still no movement from Ye Qiao's side.
Perhaps, she must be feeling slightly embarrassed to come over.
After waiting a while, Beixiao took two books and went next door.
Ye Qiao and her grandpa were eating watermelon in the yard while talking about Ye Cheng. Then, they saw Lu Beixiao, who had taken off his uniform and was only in his shirt and trousers.
Ye Qiao quickly went over to greet him.
"Qiao Qiao! These were the revision books you talked about for your senior year. I brought them over for you. Have a look and see if there is anything else missing, okay? I still have a lot more books in my place!"
"Xiao, I sill need the book titled - High School Mathematics Questions and Tactics. Do you have that at your place?"
"You should come over and have a look!" He said.
"Grandpa, I will follow Xiao to his place to look for my revision material!" Ye Qiao looked at her grandfather and said. Of course, the old man was happy and quickly asked her to go.
This little girl did not get along well with anyone before. Naturally, he hoped that she could have more friends.
As they left the yard, Lu Beixiao held her hands tightly and kissed her cheek. "Little girl, thank goodness you are smart!"
She just had a shower not long ago. Her hair was down and she was in a set of clean clothes. Also, a faint fragrance covered her body.
As they reached the house, Ye Qiao quickly let go of her hand. The Lu family already had all the dishes served on the table.
"Qiao Qiao, you are here! Quickly, grab a seat and eat with us!" Beixiao's grandma greeted her warmly.
"Grandma, it's fine, I am here to borrow some revision materials from Xiao. My family has already prepared food for me!" Ye Qiao quickly replied politely.
"Qiao Qiao, with your bad grades, is there even a point to revise?" Lu Beichi, who was coming down from the stairs, said sarcastically after catching wind of what Ye Qiao had said.
Then, he noticed Beixiao glaring at him!
