Mr. Zhan, Your Wife Is Looking For You

In her past life, Lu Yao was caught in a bloody war between two families, but was tricked into sleeping with a stranger, getting pregnant and killed with her child still in her belly. Returning from the dead, she took her pregnancy report and strutted to the Zhan family's mansion, yelling, ""Zhan Jinghong!"" Zhan Jinghong was the eldest son of the Zhan family, a super-rich family in the capital. He was known to be ruthless, handsome, volatile, and detached. However, no matter how callous he was, surely, he would admit his own mistakes...? Slamming the pregnancy report on the table, Lu Yao snapped: Take responsibility! Zhan Jinghong: Who are you? Lu Yao: A month ago, in room 1301 of Hotel Million Peaks, we did it on the bed, on the balcony, by the window, and in the bathroom. Don't tell me you don't remember. Zhan Jinghong: ...?! Later on, news that Zhan Jinghong was getting married spread throughout the capital, and his bride was alleged to be the illegitimate daughter of the Lu family, recently recognized. The capital was certainly left in shock by the news, but they were all waiting for a quick divorce and for Lu Yao to make herself a laughing stock, since no one believed she could hold the throne as a matriarch. Regarding that, Lu Yao had this to say, “Sorry, but I am going to keep you waiting.” With the superpowers she gained following her reincarnation, she reshuffled the power balance in the capital, and people soon spoke about her as if she would soon surpass Zhan Jinghong. The public: So what if she is somewhat impressive? Her marriage won't be a happy one! Lu Yao, giving Zhan Jinghong a nudge with her foot while she nursed her son: Hear that? Someone said that my marriage won't be a happy one... Zhan Jinghong: Who said that? I'll tear his mouth off!

This Is Something That Can Kill

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

When Old Wang saw that Lu Yao wasn't spouting nonsense and that she had accurately described his family's recent situation, he let down his guard and took out the jade pendant on his chest and placed it on the table in front of him.

"I had a hard time snatching this thing. In a few years, its value will definitely increase by a dozen times! Or even more!" He caressed the jade pendant in front of him, his eyes filled with yearning.

Lu Yao watched as the baleful aura in the jade pendant entered his body bit by bit as he stroked it.

The baleful aura was black and extremely dark. Fortunately, the black baleful aura had not turned red yet, so it would not kill anyone for the time being.

Lu Yao looked at the other party's yearning gaze and said calmly, "I'm afraid you'll lose your life before this thing's value increases by more than ten times."

"Since you said this thing is extremely murderous and is something that can kill people, why do you still want it? Aren't you afraid?" the old man retorted.

Lu Yao shook her head. "I already said that I'm not interested in it. I don't want to possess it, let alone be afraid. Since you've been in the industry for many years, you should know that Yin energy is produced underground. As time passes, Yin energy will give birth to a baleful aura. Once a person carries a baleful aura, not only will they be unlucky, but even the people around them won't be able to escape."

Before Old Wang could speak, Lu Yao reached out and touched the jade pendant on the table. "The baleful aura in your jade pendant is already very heavy. If you don't resolve it as soon as possible, you will at most have a month to live. I can help you cleanse the baleful aura in this jade pendant. After that, you can wear it in peace."

"Okay… okay…" Old Wang looked terrified as he pushed the jade pendant towards Lu Yao.

He had studied metaphysics for many years, but he had never seen such a young person understand this aspect so well. This was the first time the two of them had met, and his rationality told him that he shouldn't trust the other party. However, ever since Lu Yao said that this thing had a baleful aura, he immediately felt his head start to turn numb and cold, as if there was really a baleful aura drilling into his body from the jade pendant.

Even though he had already taken off the jade pendant and placed it on the table, he was still trembling.

Lu Yao took the jade pendant and a cold wind came from her hand. The baleful aura was being absorbed by her body. She gently held the jade pendant in her hand and felt the changes in her body. She was gradually satisfied.

When ordinary people were invaded by the baleful aura, their bodies would be damaged and they would feel extremely uncomfortable. However, Lu Yao felt that her entire body had suddenly become clearer and comfortable.

The baleful aura was completely absorbed by Lu Yao, and the originally cool touch became a little warm, and the color was much better.

Old Wang watched as the jade pendant became more and more gentle and clear. Even if he couldn't see the baleful aura, he understood at this moment that Lu Yao was really capable. Although this jade pendant was beautiful before, it always had a grayish feeling. With the naked eye, it didn't look like a priceless treasure. But after Lu Yao's touch, the jade pendant had already revealed its original color, making it obvious that it was expensive.

Lu Yao stroked the jade pendant in her hand and returned it to the other party. "It's fine now. You can continue wearing it." With that, she turned around and left, leaving the other party with her back.

Old Wang picked up the jade pendant and hurriedly chased after the other party. "Please wait a moment!"

Lu Yao stood still and turned around in confusion, asking the other party's intentions with her eyes.

"My surname is Wang, and I've been setting up a stall in this alley for half my life. The people around me call me Old Wang. Can you give me your phone number?" Old Wang didn't know who Lu Yao was, and he knew that there were many capable people in the world, but he had never seen anyone who could use their mortal body to identify baleful auras and cleanse them up like this girl in front of him!

When Lu Yao turned around and left just now, he asked her to stay without thinking. His intuition told him that he would only encounter such an expert once in his life!

Lu Yao looked around the alley and her expression gradually softened. She smiled and told the other party her contact information. "I believe we'll meet again soon."

...

Qingbei University was located in the inner ring of the Capital. The surrounding trees were lush and the scenery was excellent.

The entire city had just woken up in the morning. The students of Qingbei University were already walking around the campus in groups of two or three. Most of them were going to the library to study. There were also a few people running in the field to exercise.

Lu Yao walked into the gate of Qingbei and looked at the familiar scene in front of her in a daze. In her previous life, after she returned, the Lu family had invested a lot of money to arrange for her to enter this famous high-end school. The students here were not just rich, but all of them had extraordinary backgrounds.
