Chapter 1: The Strange Occurrence on Guardian Spirit Night

  I was startled and took a step back, grabbing the towel beside me to cover my private parts, but after blinking, that black shadow disappeared!

  At the same time as I let out a sigh of relief, I couldn't help but wonder if I had misseen things.

  It's okay if I'm wrong, but if I'm not, who would be sneaking a peek at me taking a bath behind my house toilet?

  As soon as I thought of that outsider being at home, I hastily put on my clothes and rushed to the main hall of our house with my hair dripping wet.

  I stood in the courtyard, only seeing that the door of the main house was tightly closed. Listening carefully to both sides, I could still hear Aunt Zhang standing at the gate talking to some aunt from another family.

  But the main house was quiet, I tiptoed over and stood by the door, listening carefully. What were my dad and Shu An discussing in hushed tones that was so secretive?

  "I don't have many requirements, I just want my daughter to be safe and sound. And she's only three years old this year, I hope she can finish this year of school well." A muffled voice came from inside, and after listening, I was suddenly confused.

  Why did my dad have to say these things to an outsider like that, but what I heard next really shocked me!

  "Uncle, don't worry, I'll take good care of Little Fairy!" This was indeed Shu An's voice, but how could he say such a thing? And to my dad, no less!

  It's as if he will be mine, no, it's like he already is mine.

  I hid outside the door, getting more and more anxious, with my head against the door. The door was only slightly ajar, but I just wanted to hear clearly. Without grasping the right force, the door suddenly opened!

  I suddenly lost my balance, and in the midst of Shi An's and my dad's astonished gazes, with a head full of wet hair, I fell like an outsider from heaven, landing on all fours.

  "What are you doing, little fairy?"

  When I lifted my head with a painful and awkward expression, my dad had a worried and tense face, while the person sitting upright next to him had an expression of utter disgust, and even when my gaze passed by, he turned his head to the other side with an air of superiority.

  I bit my teeth, stood up and explained nonchalantly: "I was passing by and got tripped by the doorstep."

  My dad clearly knew I was being evasive and he helplessly waved his hand. "Go dry your hair quickly!"

  "Oh!" I had to walk away, back to the house where I lived, and blow-dry my hair until it was half dry. During this time, I kept feeling that something important had been neglected by me, maybe because I had thought about too many things in these days and didn't notice what was wrong.

  When I came out again, Bao An happened to get up and bid farewell to my dad.

  "Uncle, I'll take my leave first!"

  This guy suddenly became polite in front of his elders, which really makes people feel uneasy!

  It's okay now, finally going!

  Who would have thought, my dad stood up enthusiastically to persuade me to stay. "Don't be in such a hurry to leave, stay for dinner, our little fairy is great at cooking, let her take charge of the kitchen."

  My whole face is burning, normally my dad has never promoted his daughter like this to others before, now no matter how I listen to these words, they all have a taste of an ugly girl's distress in marriage.

  "This time I won't be able to make it, my friend is still waiting for me in the guest room!" Fortunately, he understood and politely declined!

  I stood behind my dad and casually reached out to touch his still damp hair, suddenly feeling something was off.

  I originally had hair down to my neck, how did it grow to shoulder length? Women are usually very sensitive about their hair, and I didn't pay much attention when I washed it earlier. By rough estimate, it's grown at least 2-3 cm. No matter how fast a person's hair grows, it can't possibly grow this much in just three or four days, right?
