Yu Yuan put the bag of venomous snakes into the boiling water. Mr. Zhou widened his eyes, worried the snakes might get cooked, but seeing Mr. Sun stayed silent, he shut his mouth.

"The snakes are still active." Yu Yuan rolled up her sleeves and stirred the potion, then casually scooped out a snake that flicked its tongue.

"Now bring Sun Han over to soak. At least nine hours. He stays in until all the human-face marks on him disappear."

"Also," she looked at the flustered Mrs. Sun eyeing the big tub of potion, "during his soak, you need to keep adding boiling mugwort water to keep the temperature up. If this water isn't enough, keep boiling more in the kitchen non-stop."

"All right, all right, we got it, Master Yu." Mr. Sun wrapped his arm around Mrs. Sun's shoulder and nodded. But watching the snakes slither in the dark water, he pressed his lips and finally asked, "Master, these are venomous snakes. Will Sun Han be all right in there?"

"He will be fine," Yu Yuan lowered her eyes to the snakes flicking their tongues at the water's surface. "They're not as poisonous as your son."

Mr. and Mrs. Sun carefully helped the tightly wrapped Sun Han over to soak, and Yu Yuan slipped away downstairs.

Before leaving, Yu Yuan reminded Sun Qian, "Go find a big bucket. Your brother will probably throw up a lot. After he vomits several times, the human-face marks on him should disappear."

"All right, I'll go get one now."

At the entrance of the wealthy villa district in Shancheng, Lu Jingming helped his grandmother out of the car.

Not far away, an elderly lady with a head full of white hair was also being supported by her grandson. Seeing Lu's grandmother get out of the car, Tang's grandmother waved her cane.

"Over here! This way!"

Lu's grandmother dragged her weary body over anxiously. "Big sister, has Master Yu left yet?"

"No, no," Tang's grandmother waved her cane toward a direction, "That's the old Sun family's place. I'm familiar with them. If you had come any later, Master Yu might really have left already!"

Lu's grandmother sighed in relief. "Good, good she's still here!"

She turned to Lu You, who reluctantly followed, and advised, "When you see Master Yu later, watch your words. Maybe she'll teach you something if you're sweet enough."

Lu Jingming, holding up his grandmother, twitched at the corner of his mouth.

Knowing Yu Yuan's petty personality, after being so looked down on by the Lu family before, it would be weird if she actually saved anyone now.

But since his grandmother insisted on coming, there was no stopping her.

At the same time, he was curious how Yu Yuan, who had seemed like a useless person before, suddenly became such a sought-after metaphysics master in such a short time.

The Sun family's gate was wide open. Yu Yuan was outside in the yard sunbathing and napping, while Liangliang sat on a small stool playing with the fishing toy Sun Qian had bought.

His little ears twitched when he heard people approaching and looked up curiously.

A group of people marched in, with two elderly ladies leading the way.

"Who are you looking for?" Liangliang stood up, holding his little fishing rod, his voice small and cute, making Lu's grandmother pause in surprise.

Yu Liang looked a lot like Yu Yuan, especially from the nose down — almost like they were cast from the same mold.

And the part Yu Yuan most resembled Lu He was from the nose down. The elderly lady, seeing this kid who looked a bit like Lu He, didn't notice anything strange and smiled, "What a coincidence! This little one really looks a lot like our Xiao He!"

Lu Jingming was even more stunned, especially when the child called the napping Yu Yuan "mom." His usually steady and reliable image almost cracked.

"Mom!" Yu Liang poked the woman lying in the lounge chair, "Someone's here!"

Yu Yuan sat up and met the gaze of Lu's grandmother at the front. Reflected in her pupils was the woman's shocked expression.

"Master... Master Yu?" The elderly lady's smile froze, staring blankly at the woman before her, uncertain as she spoke.

Earlier, in livestreams, the beautifying filters had hidden how familiar Master Yu's face really was.

Now seeing her in person, she realized the resemblance between Master Yu and the Lu He on the stretcher behind was about eighty percent.

Yu Yuan gently patted Yu Liang's little head, then raised an eyebrow as she looked through the crowd and spotted Lu He being carried on a stretcher behind.

Lu He lay on the stretcher, eyes tightly shut, a streak of dark energy between his brows.

Where others couldn't see, the female ghost who had been chasing last night stood trembling beside the stretcher, cautiously watching Yu Yuan.

In broad daylight, a spirit that normally only appeared at night was now freely roaming under the sun.

Yu Yuan pulled her gaze away from the shrinking ghost and patted the head of the little chubby Yu Liang beside her. "Gua Gua, Xiao Hei, take Liangliang inside to play."

Gua Gua barked once, wagging its fluffy big tail as it went back inside. The little fat cat's mismatched eyes glanced at Yu Yuan, sensing the not-so-pleasant aura on her, and wisely wagged its tail before following inside.

Yu Liang looked at those people, then at his mom's gentle profile, nodded obediently, and carried his little fishing rod back to his room.

Lu You glanced at his eldest brother whose face had darkened, then loosened his hold on Old Lady Lu's hand and cupped his hands toward Yu Yuan.

"Senior."

The spiritual energy on Yu Yuan was much stronger than his.

They weren't even from the same sect, and in the metaphysical world, strength was all that mattered. Calling Yu Yuan "senior" was only natural.

"You are... the second son of the Lu family?" Yu Yuan sized him up with a glance, then yawned lightly, her tone cool and indifferent.

Lu You nodded and answered softly, "Yes, I'm the second son of the third branch of the Lu family, Lu You."

"Lu You..." Yu Yuan looked at the unconscious Lu He lying behind, curling her lips. "Lu He said you were sent by your Celestial Master Hall to catch me?"

"!!!"

Not only were the Lu family members there stunned, even the Tang family—who were just hoping to make a friendly connection—were shocked.

Both families turned their heads in unison to look at Lu He lying at the back.

Lu You stared at Lu He's pale face, lips moving slightly before realizing the big trouble his brother had caused him.
