Bai Yihe got up, picked up the blind cane at the bedside, and walked to a cabinet. He skillfully took out a small box from inside and slowly returned to the bed.
“What’s this?”
Bai Yihe took out a key from inside and placed it in Qu Yao’s palm.
“This is the key to the study room. There are many precious books inside, so I’ve been holding it all along. The other keys are in An Er’s hands. I’ll instruct him to get you a set later.”
He held Qu Yao’s hand tightly. “From now on, this will be your home. Wherever you want to go, whether it’s the study room or the clinic, you can go.”
From now on, this would be your home..
This sentence kept circling in her mind, and it didn’t go away for a long time.
Home? She only had one home in the demon world. As for this human world..
Could I really have a home that belonged to me? Qu Yao didn’t dare to think about it.
After that day, Bai Yihe always brought back gifts for Qu Yao from outside. Sometimes it was jewelry, sometimes it was food.
Qu Yao was intoxicated by Bai Yihe’s attentive care, but she didn’t forget about her own matters. She went to the Black Lake to investigate. The lake water there was as black as ink, and it was surrounded by weeds. It was very desolate.
The village next to it seemed to have been uninhabited for a long time. This was actually beneficial to Qu Yao’s operation, so that she wouldn’t be discovered.
She transformed into a snake tail and dived into the water along the shore.
The bottom of the water was very muddy, and the visibility was less than half a meter. There were many rotten corpses and weeds floating inside. Qu Yao regretted jumping in.
How was this a water ghost? It was clearly a sloppy ghost! The deep lake was very quiet. Jing Yao shot out a beam of red light and finally saw the road ahead. As she continued to go deeper, she felt a surge of power not far away.
The power surged for a while, then suddenly rushed over. Qu Yao struck out with her palm, and the other party quickly fled.
After that, no matter how hard she tried, she could not find the figure of the water ghost.

Qu Yao sat on a rock by the shore. As she plucked the seaweed on her head, she cursed, “What Water Ghost? I think it’s a sloppy ghost! A fleeing ghost! A coward!!”
The Faceless Ghost quickly went forward to help her wipe the water, “My little ancestor, why did you go down by yourself? I thought you were just here for a stroll. If I had said that you were going down, I would have helped you take a look. How could I let you do such a dirty and tiring job in person?”
“…” Then what did you do earlier?
“Alright, I’m going back to change my clothes.” She pointed at the Faceless Ghost’s nose. “You! You have to think of a way to lure that water ghost out for me!”
Everyone said that her sister had been killed by the water ghost. Even if she was really dead, she would still want to see her sister’s body. If she was eaten by the water ghost, she would rip open the water ghost’s stomach and dig out her sister’s body from the water ghost’s stomach and grind it into powder! “Okay, okay, okay!” Faceless Ghost answered enthusiastically with a face that was different from the one on their wedding day. Qu Yao stopped in her tracks, preparing to leave. “Why did you change into another human skin? Did you start killing people again?!”
Her expression scared the Faceless Ghost to his knees. “I am innocent, little ancestor! I’m using the skin of a dead person.”
The demon ancestor was worried that he would scare people when he went out, so he specifically told him to wear a human skin. However, he was afraid that using the skin of a living person would upset Qu Yao, so he had to dig a grave and get some skin of someone who had just died.
Due to it being a dead person, the skin could only be used for a few days. Even if he used his magic power, it could only last for a month at most. The Faceless Ghost had just come to the human world, so in order to keep it fresh, he would change his skin every two days if he felt that it was not useful.
“It’s not for the best. If I find out that you’re causing trouble for the demon world, I’ll tear off this skin, which is without any facial features!”
When Qu Yao returned home, she did not see Bai Yihe. When the surrounding maids saw her return in a sorry state, they all asked her what had happened with concern. The others took the initiative to boil water for her, preparing to change her clothes.
Initially, these people did not have a good attitude towards Qu Yao who had suddenly appeared. In addition, Qu Yao had an unrestrained personality and was unruly and unbridled. Everyone hated her even more. However, after they got married, Bai Yihe took the opportunity when she was not around to make things clear to everyone.
From now on, Qu Yao was the mistress of this family. No matter what attitude they had in the past, everyone had to be respectful towards her in the future.

Qu Yao sat in front of the mirror and laboriously dismantled the headdress that was tangled with her hair. It took her a long time to remove two of them. There was still one that was the most complicated.
A crisp sound came from the door. It was the sound of a blind cane hitting the ground.
“Yao Yao? You’re back?”
Bai Yihe came in holding the door frame. Qu Yao was about to go over to pick him up when he suddenly saw her sloppy clothes. “Stand still!”
“What’s wrong?” Bai Yihe stopped. “Why is there a stench?”
