Shocking! A master of metaphysics has been mind-reading!

Upon hearing this, Liu Mei's eyes widened instantly, her fingertips trembling slightly. Then, she lowered her eyes, clasped her hands together, and suppressed the shock brought on by her wildly beating heart.

"When we were registering the household registration, a policewoman couldn't stand it and changed the character '没' to '梅,' which means perseverance."

Liu Mei's eyelashes trembled slightly as she tried to stand up, but Xia Wange pressed her legs down, making her sit down again.

"Of course, this girl from the remote mountain village did not disappoint. No matter how much her family suppressed her, she did not give up on going to school. But after finishing junior high school, the girl encountered a hurdle. Her family would not let her continue her studies and wanted her to get married. But this girl did not give up. She went on a hunger strike and even considered self-harm to disfigure her face in exchange for the opportunity not to get married and to continue her studies. Her parents were afraid that if she became disabled and ugly, she would not be able to get a good dowry. They also happened to hear that high school graduates could earn much more money than junior high school graduates."

"So the girl's parents let her go to school, but they didn't provide tuition."

"Fortunately, there was a teacher who had been paying special attention to her at that time. After discussing it with the girl, they chose a slightly lower-ranked high school where tuition was waived for the girl's grades. The teacher also provided the girl with living expenses. Throughout high school, her parents regretted bringing her home countless times, but with the help of her classmates and teachers, she always managed to stay in school and continue her studies."

"During winter and summer vacations, the girl didn't dare to go home. The teacher took her in. The girl didn't want to be a freeloader, so she went out to work every day, doing manual labor. The teacher felt sorry for her and knew she was strong-willed, so he arranged for her to tutor elementary and middle school students. The girl divided her wages into three parts: one part to keep her parents from coming to arrest her again, one part to pay back the teacher, and one part as her living expenses."

"Later, the girl graduated. She knew what kind of family she had, so she applied to a police academy and went straight to the army. With her excellent physical fitness, she was successfully enlisted. Her parents could only watch her leave. Later, because she longed for the police profession, she was discharged and returned to continue her studies. Then she successfully wore that hat. But besides that hat, the girl's favorite thing was that pen, because it was given to her by the teacher who had always encouraged and sponsored her. The teacher hoped that the pen could be useful, so the girl kept using it and used it very carefully."

"The girl is a very kind girl. She is determined, hardworking, upright, and thoughtful. She will definitely be able to fulfill all her wishes."

At this point, Liu Mei was already in tears. Thinking of her own past, she choked out, "How could someone really know so much about a girl's past?"

Xia Wange handed over a pack of tissues. "Considering facial features, family background, major life milestones, personality, and solid basic skills, the past is easy to predict, but the future is hard to foresee. Do you want to know about the girl's future?"

Liu Mei paused for a moment, then shook her head. "Knowing too much makes me worried... that the girl might become hesitant and indecisive in the future."

"Alright then." Xia Wange nodded. "Let me tell you about the girl's shortcomings."

Liu Mei looked at her.

"Not decisive enough, not ruthless enough," Xia Wange said. "I think that little girl is still a bit naive. She tried to use half of her demobilization pay to stop her parents from coming to find her, but she didn't know that human greed is limitless."

At this point, Xia Wange stood up and carefully picked up her suitcase. "Only by making a clean break can you embrace a new life. If you are indecisive, it's like being stuck in a swamp your whole life. You may seem to be alive, but you're always sinking. That girl has a bright future and can save many people. Since her family of origin is a swamp, she should find a way to escape it and dry it out."

After saying that, Xia Wange waved her hand and left.

As she reached the front door, she scratched her head. She was more than an hour late on her first day of work. Should she come up with an excuse?

The security guard spotted her from afar and quickly opened the gate for her, even asking Xia Wange if she needed help pushing her suitcase.

Upstairs, Lu Qiu, who was sitting by the window drinking water, noticed the half-person-high box in Xia Wange's bag, raised an eyebrow, and turned to ask Assistant Xu, "Xia Wange applied for a dormitory?"

Assistant Xu also peeked outside, puzzled, and said, "No, there isn't anything there."

Thinking about what he had discussed with Xia Wange yesterday, Lu Qiu put down his cup and asked calmly, "Have you taken care of your parents' affairs? Do you need to take another day off to handle them further?"

Assistant Xu was taken aback and quickly said, "No need, no need, Mr. Lu. I met a girl yesterday whose parents were also scammed like mine and are trying to get their money back. We even called the police yesterday. Today, she said she would help me handle some things. She said that one set of documents is required, and two sets are required, so she told me to just send the documents to her directly."

"Really?" Lu Qiu smiled. "Then you'll have to treat her to a nice meal."

"Of course, of course," Assistant Xu said with a smile. "I've already decided what to treat her to. I've seen her post a lot of hot pot pictures on her WeChat Moments, so I've decided to treat her to hot pot."

Lu Qiu subtly rubbed the rim of his cup with his fingertips. Assistant Xu rarely discussed personal matters in front of him, so his sudden outpouring of information indicated that the girl was truly compatible with him. Although Assistant Xu was only expressing gratitude, the smile that reached his eyes was impossible to conceal.

He lowered his head and took a sip of tea.

True love...

dong dong dong.

A knock came at the door.

Lu Qiu estimated that it should be Xia Wange by now.

Assistant Xu went to open the door, and Lu Qiu saw Xia Wange pulling in a large suitcase. Before they could ask anything, Xia Wange flashed a big smile, "Boss, I've brought you some warmth!"

Lu Qiu and Assistant Xu were both taken aback.

They exchanged a blank glance, and then Xia Wange opened her large suitcase, revealing a box full of white and green stones—no, it should be called jade.

"Boss, here, a Hetian jade cabbage ring, please put it on." Xia Wange slipped the cabbage ring onto Lu Qiu's finger without further ado. "And a jade thumb ring, please."

"What are these for?"

"I'll borrow it, no, I'll give it to you. After you wear it, I'll borrow it from time to time."

Lu Qiu: "??? What do you mean?"

"The literal meaning," Xia Wange said with a smile, "and this jade headband..."

"Do we have to wear them all?" Lu Qiu refused. "Let's skip this one."

"Okay, you can wear it on your wrist, and this string of prayer beads too." Xia Wange asked as she put it on, "Boss, do you feel any better in your legs today?"

Lu Qiu shook his head. "Same as yesterday."

Xia Wange nodded. It seemed that the purple energy she had absorbed from the jade stone could not help Lu Qiu relieve his pain. To help him relieve his leg pain, she would need to use the energy she had absorbed on the spot.

The thought that she would not only be able to store a lot of purple energy immediately, but also have a large mobile purple energy warehouse made Xia Wange feel even better.
