Shocking! A master of metaphysics has been mind-reading!
Chapter 75 is crammed into one of our group chats.
Currently, Cao Niannian and Zhou Xingwang spend most of their time at Xia Wange's shop. Perhaps because there are too many words on her sign, not many people come to the shop to inquire. At most, some idle old ladies and gentlemen pass by and peek through the door to see what is sold inside.
Normally, when this happens, Zhou Xingwang would float down to take a look, then float back up to tell Cao Niannian, since he is faster.
They are also discussing renting the second floor next door.
Currently, there are about four million singers in the summer gala. In the past, she would definitely have gone to various places to find jade with spiritual energy to collect and use. But now that she has Lu Qiu, it seems that she suddenly has not many places to spend money.
Besides, she's still Lu Qiu's assistant. Although she spends all day lounging on the sofa in his office playing on her phone in various comfortable positions, he still tops up her meal card and pays her salary. But most importantly, she's been getting free lunches from Lu Qiu lately, and when she goes to the bridge in the evening, Lu Qiu is in charge of preparing the car and gathering information. She doesn't have to worry about anything except being there.
After thinking it over, she felt she should give back.
"Boss, what would you like to eat? The persimmons are quite sweet lately, and there are also crabs; crabs are plentiful this year. Would you like some?"
May all your wishes come true.
Crabs are given as gifts.
They all seem like good choices.
Lu Qiu looked up from his documents and stared at her for a moment. "What, trying to poison me?"
"Poison you?" Xia Wange asked, puzzled.
Lu Qiu stared at her expression for a while, then said, "Look it up yourself."
Xia Wange looked it up for a while and then belatedly realized that crabs and persimmons cannot be eaten together.
She scanned a few more related food items and suddenly exclaimed, "I never imagined that so many things can't be eaten together, and I've actually eaten them all!"
Lu Qiu casually asked, "So how did you manage to survive this long?"
"By doing good deeds." Xia Wange shrank back onto the sofa.
Feeling that delivering food wasn't the right path for her, she decided to hire someone to monitor and report the account that was lighting the lamp. She refused to believe that with external disturbances and her constant high-priced temptations, Master Bai wouldn't take the bait.
Hearing Xia Wange's words, Lu Qiu finally realized that the other party did indeed survive by accumulating merit. Feeling guilty and hesitant about how to change the subject, Du Yun pushed open the door and entered, looking expectantly at Xia Wange, saying, "Sister Xia, are you ready? This case is so big, is there anything you need to bring? I can help you carry things."
"I'm all ready." Xia Wange pointed to her backpack, which looked like it contained almost nothing.
"That's all?" Du Yun was taken aback. "Is there anything else large that you need to bring?"
"And this too." Xia Wange pointed to Lu Qiu again, "A bag and Lu Qiu, that should solve about 90% of the problems."
Du Yun: "..."
Seeing that Xia Wange was still in the mood to listen to music and browse her phone, Du Yun began to get anxious. He started preparing lunch, saying that it should be light, otherwise she might get an upset stomach and have to find a toilet when she went to the bridge, which would be unbecoming of a master. He also reminded her to drink less water after dinner, otherwise she would be unable to hold it in and it would affect her performance.
Xia Wange felt like she wasn't going to do any business, but to participate in the Luo Tian Grand Ceremony, or rather, to take the college entrance examination.
However, after looking at Du Yun's face, she knew that he had encountered difficulties in his college entrance examination. It seemed that he had a serious stomachache during the exam.
The appointment was scheduled for midnight, but to be on the safe side, she, Lu Qiu, and Du Yun went across the guard post to the bridge at 11:30.
Seeing the dozens of people swarming onto the bridge, Xia Wange finally understood what a "hero's invitation" meant, and why Du Yun was so nervous. It seemed that people with connections and knowledge of feng shui from several surrounding cities had come—not just feng shui masters, but also sorcerers, shamans, monks, and Taoist priests...
Xia Wange belatedly realized that Master Li, who had gotten into trouble, had some prestige and reputation in the industry.
With so many people coming here now, if any of them can resolve this matter, they will be able to reap the prestige that Master Li had previously built up in this circle and quickly become famous.
In their circle, fame is very important.
Typically, a gentleman would bring one or two assistants. They would walk around the bridge in twos and threes to investigate, and some would greet each other when they encountered acquaintances, while others would directly approach them to chat and build relationships.
"It seems that Master Li, who had the accident, is quite prestigious," Lu Qiu said casually, glancing at the people on the bridge.
Xia Wange glanced at him, feeling a sense of satisfaction that they shared the same view. She stroked her chin and sighed, "My junior apprentice, Fang Qingzi, is really quite remarkable. To be able to be friends with someone of such reputation and prestige."
Lu Qiu glanced at her, his lips moved, but he didn't say anything in the end.
He wanted to remind Xia Wange that it was possible that Fang Qingzi and Master Li were actually on the same level, people with similar prestige, which was why they became friends.
He was afraid that if he reminded her, Xia Wange would become arrogant.
Xia Wange didn't focus too much on people. Instead, she walked to the bridge, leaned on the railing, and looked down. During the day, this bridge was only for vehicles and not for people, so she could only observe it closely now.
She glanced at it and found that there was nothing wrong with the water below, and the bridge itself also seemed fine.
Even after eliminating everything else, a problem still arose: it would require waiting for a specific time.
Just then, someone in charge used a megaphone to invite them to gather together.
The person in charge first thanked everyone for coming and told them that Master Li's family would bring him over later, hoping that he could receive treatment from the masters. Then, they invited them to create a group chat in person so that the notification would be faster, in order to avoid the situation where the message could not be delivered properly due to the large number of people and the size of the bridge.
Some older people don't quite understand how to create a group chat face-to-face and rely on assistants to do it. But surfing experts like Xia Wange can join groups incredibly fast.
"Joining the group is fine, but could the person in charge please vet them? Check the invitations? Most of the people here are important figures; it's beneath our dignity to have just some nobody crammed into the same group!"
As Xia Wange changed her name in the group, she frowned and thought to herself: What, you got a special WeChat membership? Can't your VIP WeChat membership be in the same group as us regular WeChat users? Is your WeChat account gilded?
"Ha, some people just don't know any better. They sneak in here hoping to ride on someone else's coattails, no matter where they got the information. Young man, let me tell you, riding on someone else's fame comes at a price!"
