She turned around, and suddenly, a black object flashed by in front of her eyes and landed on the door handle not far away.
When Ye Xi saw clearly what it was, she almost screamed in fright.
It was actually a black spider the size of a palm.
Wumei Town is located in the south, and although snakes, bugs, rats, and ants are common, Ye Xi had never seen such a large spider before.
Ye Xi had been afraid of creatures with many legs since she was young, and just one glance almost took her breath away.
In her panic, she dove into Lu Lingxiao's arms, trembling with fear.
Lu Lingxiao stared at the spider on the door handle, still struggling to climb up, and a curve formed at the corner of his mouth.
It had to be said, this little thing showed up just at the right moment.
Holding the trembling Ye Xi in his arms, Lu Lingxiao asked, "Are you afraid of spiders?"
Ye Xi lifted her head from his embrace, her small face already pale.
