"Miss, you've been on the road for many days. Take a warm bath." Nanny Zhang poured a large bucket of warm water into the wooden bathtub. She turned around and looked disgustingly at the girl standing timidly behind her.
Chu Yunyao did not know what Nanny Zhang was thinking.
However, she did not dare to resist. She obediently removed her dirty, patched clothes that had not changed for many days.
With one hand on the bathtub's edge, Chu Yunyao carefully stepped into it.
The temperature of the water was suitable. She lowered her head, untied her braided hair, and carefully washed her tangled hair with both hands.
A pair of large hands grabbed her hair and pressed her head into the water.
Nanny Zhang's expression turned ferocious as she watched the little girl in the bathtub slowly stop struggling and sink into the bottom.
Nanny Zhang twisted her fat waist and propped her hands on the bathtub's edge. She grumbled, "You little slut, look at your ugly face. You don't deserve my service."
"Coming back to the Chu family will only bring disgrace upon them. Do you think this is a place for an ugly freak like you to marry into?"
Nanny Zhang stopped for a moment. After confirming the girl was dead, she turned around to get the sack.
A small hand stretched out of the water and grabbed Nanny Zhang's wrist.
Chu Yunyao's drenched long hair covered her face as she stood up from the bathtub.
Nanny Zhang was so scared that her legs went weak. She screamed, "Ghost."
The girl turned her wrist and pulled hard, pressing the frightened nanny into the bathwater.
The strength of a dying person was too great. Nanny Zhang's hands clawed in the air, and her sharp nails scratched the girl's neck, leaving a few deep bloody marks.
The girl freed her other hand and patted the acupuncture points on the back of the nanny's neck twice. The old woman fell into the bathtub unconsciously.
Chu Yunyao covered her aching chest and took deep breaths. With the help of the white moonlight, she looked around the shabby thatched cottage.
What the hell was this place?
She lived in the year 2108, a highly intelligent era, and was the beloved daughter of the Dark Sect's leader.
Memories flooded her mind like a black hole. There was a traitor in the Dark Sect, and she was under firepower. Her brother and father pushed her into the newly developed time machine to protect her.
She did not know what went wrong, but her soul possessed the body that had just died.
Chu Yunyao adjusted her breathing to dispel the suffocating pain in her chest and refreshed the memories in her mind.
Just like her, this girl was also called Chu Yunyao. She was the only daughter born of the legal wife of the wealthy Chu family.
Unfortunately, her mother died when she was young. Since she was born, she was ugly and stupid. Her father despised her and sent her to her nanny's hometown. She grew up in the poor countryside.
When she was sixteen, her father sent someone to bring her back to Jin City. It was said that she would be married to the Young Marshal of Jin City, Mo Lingyuan.
When she heard the news, Chu Yunyao was so scared that she fainted once. Nanny Zhang, who brought her back, splashed a bucket of cold water on her.
Nanny Zhang threatened her, "If you don't obey, I'll cut your nanny into pieces."
Chu Yunyao cried and bid farewell to the heartbroken nanny before returning to the city with Nanny Zhang.
Along the way, Nanny Zhang treated her as a servant girl, providing her with little food and subjecting her to constant threats and intimidation. However, in the end, this old evil woman went crazy and killed her.
Just as Chu Yunyao was lost, the window opened and closed, and a black shadow pounced on her.
Chu Yunyao was about to dodge, but the man had already crushed her and rolled over with her.
He covered her mouth and nose with one hand, and his other hand coincidentally touched her butt.
Chu Yunyao belatedly realized that she had just climbed out of the bathtub and had no time to put on her clothes.
At the same time, an earth-shattering gunshot sounded, leaving behind a row of bullet holes where she had been standing just now.
