After Xiao Lingyu dropped the tomatoes and cucumbers off with her brother, she returned to her rental home.

As she leaned on the bed to rest, she could not help but feel a sense of fear and uneasiness.

She should thank the video in the alley for clearing her name. She should also thank the heavens that the other cameras were broken. Otherwise, she would have a lot of explaining to do. She was thankful that most people didn’t have cellphones yet, or else she would be internet famous already. It would bring her family a lot of trouble.

As Xiao Lingyu lay there, she remembered that the last time this happened was when she was helping the police with the human trafficking gang. She was way too fast for a normal human. She remembered the shocked and confused gaze of the officer who saw her.

She remembered how hesitant Jiang Tao was when they were together that morning. He must have been meaning to ask her about her superhuman speed.

Xiao Lingyu wanted to know too. She thought about it, and the only reason she could think of was the spring water. That had to be it.

Drinking and bathing in the spring helped cleanse her body. Her body achieved higher innate potential. It was light and lithe. It explained why she was running and moving so fast.

She had to be careful of this in the future. She escaped being noticed this time, but it didn’t mean she’d be safe forever.

Xiao Lingyu knew as more strange things happened around her, people would get more suspicious. Therefore, she had to be more careful. If the farming space were exposed, at worst, she would hand over the jade pendant. However, if the government wanted to capture her for research, then it would be an irrevocable tragedy.

Xiao Lingyu breathed out heavily, swearing to be more cautious. Wrapped in concern, she slowly lowered into sleep.

Early the following day, Xiao Lingyu woke up to welcome the new day. She glanced at the time. It was 5.30 am. After some cleaning up, she materialized the crops from the farming space.

According to her estimation, Grandma Song and Grandma Li would be coming over soon.

Sure enough, Grandma Song and Grandma Li arrived a little after 6 am.

“Yu ‘Er, Yu ‘Er!” The two grandmothers stopped outside the gate and shouted for Xiao Lingyu. Xiao Lingyu opened the gate with a smile and greeted them, “Good morning, Grandma Song, Grandma Li!”

“Good morning!” The two grandmothers replied with a smile.

Xiao Lingyu asked with a smile, “What would you be getting today?”

Grandma Song praised, “All your produce is delicious. I only boiled them, but my kids and grandkids were fighting over them!”

“Yes. After my eldest grandson had your vegetables, he became more energetic!” Grandma Li concurred. The two grannies grabbed the stuff they needed, paid, and left. They didn’t want to delay Xiao Lingyu. Just as the two grannies left, they ran into a young woman at the gate.

Yang Yan thought she was already very early, but someone was earlier than her.

“Grandmothers, you’re early! Are you here to buy vegetables too?” Yang Yan greeted them politely.

Grandma Song smiled, “Miss, are you also here to buy vegetables from Miss Xiao?”

“Yes, Grandma!” Yang Yan said with a smile, “My family loves her product so much.”

“Okay. You better go in then. We’ll be leaving!” Grandma Song nodded.

Yang Yan nodded in return. She walked through the gate and looked around, “Miss Xiao, this place is very nice, but it’s quite remote!”
