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

The leg pain came suddenly this time, but it wasn't as painful as before, so Lu Qiu didn't tell Xia Wange. Firstly, he didn't want her to be overworked, but more importantly, he didn't want to show her such a vulnerable side.

But she still found out.

The stalemate continued. Under Xia Wange's manipulation, Lu Qiu clearly felt the ants-like pain in his legs gradually disappear, and he gradually regained some strength. He opened his eyes slightly, looked up at Xia Wange who was clasping her hands together and pressing something against his chest, and whispered, "What is this?"

"Kapala." Xia Wange felt much better when she realized that the purple aura of the other party was only clashing with the evil aura on the kapala and had not harmed her, the one who was holding it. "Actually, it can't really be called a kapala. A kapala is a product of high monks. This is more like a skull bracelet."

Lu Qiu: "..."

I suddenly regretted asking.

"Don't look down on it. This thing can relieve your pain several times."

Lu Qiu slightly raised his neck and glanced at his half-open upper body. "Will this be the procedure for all future relief efforts?"

"Not really." Xia Wange maintained her posture. "Next time, take it off yourself and show your chest, so I don't tear your shirt."

Thinking of that bizarre scene, Lu Qiu told Xia Wange that his legs were starting to hurt, and then he voluntarily took off his clothes and lay down on the bed...

He pursed his lips, unsure of what to say.

"Don't let your heart race!" Xia Wange was so shocked by the purple energy that her bowed posture was lifted up quite a bit. "I'm about to be blown away."

Lu Qiu glanced at Xia Wange, then simply closed his eyes and turned to the side. "Sorry, I can't control this. I've been worried that you might do something to that acupoint on the right that you've been looking for for so long."

"Then let's chat." Xia Wange blushed and quickly changed the subject. "By the way, what's going on with this purple aura? It shouldn't be flaring up so frequently."

"A major project from our subsidiary has landed, and they've given out a lot of bonuses and even given us time off," Lu Qiu said. "Before, whenever one of our subsidiaries made a lot of money, my legs would ache."

"The purple aura feeds back, no wonder." Xia Wange exhaled. "For a normal person to obtain purple aura, they need to be loved and respected by others. The more people who are grateful and respectful to them, the more noble they will become. It's a virtuous cycle, but it's not the case for you."

Lu Qiu chuckled, unsure of what to say for a moment.

The better he does, the better his followers become, but the worse he becomes for himself. This strange thing can only happen to him.

No wonder, no wonder his leg problems started after he started his company.

"Should I exploit them ruthlessly?" Lu Qiu quipped in a low voice after a moment.

"Then your leg might get even worse, and your body will break down even faster," Xia Wange said. "With your physique, you'll make money no matter what, and you'll make even more money. At that time, wealth and status will make your body hurt even more, so everything is predetermined."

"Was that all preordained, that you were meant to save me?" Lu Qiu turned to look at her.

Xia Wange was taken aback, then forced a smile, "Whoever saves you pays the price..."

Before she could finish speaking, Xia Wange lost her balance, her hand slipped, and half of her body fell onto Lu Qiu. She quickly turned her face, and her cheek made direct contact with Lu Qiu's chest.

Feeling the touch of the other person's skin on her cheek, Xia Wange was so embarrassed that she scratched her shoes with her toes.

It has to be on the right side; otherwise, what's stuck together won't be a face but a mouth!

The evil energy on the skull bracelet was actually completely consumed by the purple energy!

This is outrageous! Jiao Xiaolian, is your boyfriend any good?! All that accumulated evil energy disappeared so quickly?! Did he even bother accumulating evil energy all these years? Were he slacking off?! How come he's so useless?!

Before Xia Wange could even get off him, the door to the lounge was pushed open, and Du Yun's voice came through, "Lu Qiu! I bought you some ice packs, although it's only a temporary fix..."

Du Yun stared at the scene before him, completely stunned. His eyes widened in astonishment as he asked, "Sister Xia, what are you doing lying on top of Lu Qiu? Are you trying to relieve his pain? Would applying something or sucking on it help?"

Xia Wange: "..."

Thank you so much.

Perhaps it was because her usual sophisticated image had penetrated so deeply into Du Yun's mind that even with her and Lu Qiu's ambiguous posture, he didn't think anything of it!

This child is teachable!

All her thoughts were processed in the blink of an eye. Xia Wange stood up, pretending to be calm, and tidied the stray hairs on her forehead. She coughed awkwardly and said, "I just obtained an evil artifact that can help suppress Lu Qiu's leg pain. It should be almost over."

After saying that, Xia Wange eagerly flipped her hand over and raised it so that Du Yun could clearly see what she was holding.

Lu Qiu, who had clearly heard all of Xia Wange's inner thoughts, looked at her extremely embarrassed appearance, gently curled his lips, and raised his hand to pull his shirt up.

"Sister Xia, what is this?" Du Yun was immediately attracted and leaned closer to ask.

"A human skull bracelet."

"Ew~~~~" Du Yun took several steps back in disgust in an instant. "It really is an evil thing."

As he put the things down, he said, "Sister Xia, you don't know, when I pushed the door open, the way you were standing there really startled me. I thought I had interrupted something and immediately wanted to close the door and leave, but reason prevailed. Lu Qiu can hardly speak when he's in pain, so he can't do such a difficult thing. Later, I guessed right. You were treating his leg."

After saying that, Du Yun handed the item to Lu Qiu, "Here, this is for ice packs."

Lu Qiu glanced at the ice-cold beer in his hand, his lips twitching slightly. "Thanks."

"You're welcome." Du Yun opened a bottle and took a big gulp.

Lu Qiu immediately said, "Drinking at work will result in a deduction of half a day's pay."

Du Yun: "..."

He glanced at the beer, then at Lu Qiu, snorted, and downed half of it. "Deduct it if you want. I don't live on a salary. I'm magnanimous and won't argue with a psychopath like you."

Lu Qiu happened to be looking at him and saw him exaggerate the words "old virgin" with his mouth. He raised his hand and threw the beer in his hand at him.

Du Yun caught it, took a few steps back, and gave him a provocative look.

"You should have some too. You should still feel a bit numb, right?" Xia Wange brought back another can of beer. "The alcohol will help relieve the numbness a little."
