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

"I have another meeting this afternoon, and a few projects still need to be approved," Lu Qiu said wearily.

This time, for some reason, it didn't hurt as much as before, but I was extremely tired, and my throat was itchy and a little dry.

Xia Wange paused in her beer-opening gesture. "Tsk, so dedicated, if your legs don't hurt, who will?"

As she spoke, she put the iced beer aside and replaced it with a glass of water.

"I have to take responsibility for what I should take. I can't start a company and then just sit back and do nothing." Lu Qiu took a few sips of water and closed his eyes, trying to get used to the discomfort in his legs. Actually, the pain was much less now, less than a tenth of what it used to be.

Overall, even at its worst, the pain this time was much less than before. Of course, it's also possible that Xia Wange came to help him before the pain reached its peak.

Xia Wange glanced at the time. "Work is never-ending. I'll have Assistant Xu give you the meeting minutes for the first meeting this afternoon. At least you can get two and a half hours of sleep."

"How did you know?" Lu Qiu asked softly.

"I'm still your assistant, so I'll still get a copy of your schedule."

Although she doesn't need it most of the time, she is still one of the people who has mastered the destiny of the chosen one...

Xia Wange sent a message to Assistant Xu. This time, the clash between the purple aura and the evil aura on the Gapala consumed not only the purple aura but also a lot of the opponent's stamina. It was probably because Lu Qiu himself had good endurance; otherwise, someone else might have already fallen asleep, unlike him who was still thinking about going to the meeting. "Alright, go to sleep. Aren't you just worried about it happening again while you're half asleep?"

After saying that, Xia Wange pointed to the sofa next to her, "I'll be watching you right here, and I guarantee that your legs won't hurt any more in the next two and a half hours than they do now."

Lu Qiu, who had been struggling to get up, suddenly relaxed her grip and lay back down. Her pale lips were slightly pursed as she whispered, "Remember to call me."

"Okay, okay, I'll definitely call you." Xia Wange pulled the white blanket next to her over him. "Even someone who earns 8.05 million in one night doesn't work as hard as you."

"Um..." Du Yun, who had been standing to the side without being able to interject, spoke up weakly, "Although Sister Xia, you do earn quite a lot, Lu Qiu should earn more than you in one night."

Xia Wange turned to look at him, "Then he definitely didn't donate as much as I did."

"You don't have as much as him. Qiu Ye has his own charitable foundation." Du Yun walked over, opened the door and went out, then poked his head back in and continued, "And he's more stable than you."

Xia Wange: "..."

I really wanted to give this kapok in my hand to Du Yun, so he would know what it felt like to be talkative.

Lu Qiu was indeed exhausted. Seeing Xia Wange nestled on the sofa next to him with her eyelids heavily closed, he was worried that his legs would start hurting again after he fell asleep, and he would be woken up by the pain. That was the most uncomfortable time. But that wasn't the main thing. The main thing was that he inexplicably hoped that Xia Wange could stay with him alone.

Unfortunately, he simply didn't have the energy to talk to her.

Seeing that Lu Qiu was asleep, Xia Wange took out a talisman and wrapped the gabala in it, preparing to bury it in a place with heavy evil energy. If she had the chance, she would definitely show it to Jiao Xiaolian's boyfriend, showing him the correct way to accumulate yin energy.

After playing on her phone for a while, Xia Wange suddenly sensed the aura around Lu Qiu starting to surge. She opened her Heavenly Eye and saw that some more purple energy was rushing in from all directions, trying to merge into his body. Fortunately, there wasn't much of this purple energy, but if it were absorbed, his legs would hurt even more.

Xia Wange looked at the purple aura with nothing but envy, jealousy, and hatred.

Some are dying of drought while others are drowning in floods; it's incredibly difficult for ordinary people to even get a little bit, let alone for Lu Qiu to get rid of even a little bit.

I wonder how much money they've made and how many good deeds they've done to earn this.

Carefully place a talisman on Lu Qiu's quilt. It's difficult to remove the energy that has already entered his body, but it's possible to prevent the wandering purple energy from entering.

When it was all over, Xia Wange looked at the swirling purple aura with immense heartache. After a moment's thought, she opened her backpack.

Lu Qiu slept exceptionally soundly this time, without suddenly waking up as usual, and without any inexplicable pain, except...

He always felt a heaviness in his chest.

Lu Qiu groggily opened his eyes and looked first at the sofa where Xia Wange was sitting. He found that the other person was curled up there with headphones in her ears and had not noticed that he had woken up.

After a moment, Lu Qiu still felt a pressure on his chest. He raised his neck slightly to look down and took a deep breath.

He found a talisman placed squarely on his chest, with a large, pure white jade fox carving pressed on top of it.

As he lay back down, Lu Qiu felt as if there were some things placed around his head. He turned his head and saw that his bed was surrounded by various jade stones, including three jade flower carvings that were exceptionally beautiful and solemn, as if they should be placed in a mourning hall or buried in the ground.

"Xia Wange!" Lu Qiu gritted his teeth and said.

"Huh? What's wrong?" Xia Wange only then realized that Lu Qiu had woken up. She hurriedly looked at him and accidentally turned on Bluetooth. Immediately, the phone's music player started playing the funeral music that Xia Wange had just been listening to.

The white quilt, the talisman, and the circle of jade stones, along with the distinctly mournful music and Lu Qiuqing's pale face.

Xia Wange belatedly realized that it would be a disservice to this scene of a resurrected corpse if she didn't stick a talisman on Lu Qiu's head.

"Xia! Wan! Ge!" Lu Qiu said in a deep voice, "I'm asleep, not dead!"

"Well, boss, I can explain it all." Xia Wange coughed lightly, took a deep breath, "It's like this, after you fell asleep, purple energy gathered around you again. I put a talisman on you to block that energy, but since we're already here, I decided not to waste it, so I put some small jade stones around you. Although I arranged them in a circle, I chose three of the most beautiful jade carvings to put on your head. This is also a new type of funeral music that was mentioned in the group, so everyone can listen to it."

Although it does resemble a funeral parlor somewhat, please don't think I'm trying to harm you and bring bad luck upon you.

After listening to what the other person said in one breath, Lu Qiu reacted for a moment, then exhaled and said, "Don't do that next time. If you want to gather your energy, just tell me, and I'll help you."

Xia Wange was stunned by the other person's words, unable to utter a single explanation. After a moment, she nodded, "Okay, I'll give it to you directly next time..."

"Sister Xia, Sister Xia, I'm coming in." Du Yun knocked on the door and then pushed it open to enter. "I received news that the engineering team that built the bridge has commissioned a master craftsman to take over the matter you were investigating. I heard that there was a problem when the bridge was being joined together, which is why someone inexplicably went up on the bridge to commit suicide."
