Sister Ruyi?

The nineteenth day of the seventh lunar month, the first day the city reopened.

Inside Rain Alley City, in an ordinary residence.

A middle-aged married couple was putting on their shoes by the front door. The woman kept reminding her, "Mom and dad are going to work. Be good at home by yourself."

"Mhm, mhm." A petite short-haired girl nodded obediently.

The middle-aged woman put on her high heels. Seeing her daughter's pretty and adorable appearance, her gaze turned loving. "Don't open the door for strangers, understand?"

"Stop nagging already." The man said with a chuckle, "Our Tian Tian is a Sword Lotus Believer. She's amazing, isn't she?"

Tian Tian flushed a little and protested, "Oh, Dad!"

"Haha." The man chuckled and walked out the door.

Tian Tian was clearly already a twenty-year-old young woman, and a powerful warrior who often entered Demon Lairs and defended the city on the Night of the Fifteenth!

Yet the married couple still treated their daughter like a child.

Perhaps it was related to Tian Tian's pretty, adorable appearance, or perhaps to her introverted personality.

Tian Tian saw her parents out. Only after they disappeared around the stairwell did she gently close the door.

"Kacha~"

Tian Tian locked the door from the inside and sighed.

Summer vacation was about to end, and she would have to go back to school. She wondered how Chang Ying was doing now.

How Manny was recovering after giving birth.

"Bzz~ Bzz~"

The sound of a phone vibrating came from the bedroom.

Tian Tian came back to herself, her little short legs pumping as she jogged back to the bedroom and picked up her phone from the computer desk.

The next moment, Tian Tian's apricot eyes widened slightly.

Someone she had not contacted in a very, very long time
