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

The wind blew Xia Wange's clothes.

Her stomach rumbled at just the right moment, and Xia Wange readily pulled her leg back from the window. "Okay."

Lu Qiu, who breathed a huge sigh of relief, quickly placed the bone spur on the bed and hurriedly went out. "Wait a moment. If you're really tired, just rest on the bed. If you want to change the sheets and blankets, there are some in the dressing room. It's too late to call the auntie. Just do it yourself."

After Lu Qiu went out, he breathed a slight sigh of relief. As soon as the wheelchair reached the elevator, he saw the elevator numbers jump up. When the door opened, Brother Lu was also stunned to see Lu Qiu.

Lu Qiu glanced at his older brother, then calmly entered the elevator, pressed the button for the first floor, and said, "Big brother, why aren't you asleep so late?"

"I think I heard a woman scream just now. I checked downstairs but didn't find anything, so I came up to check."

"Oh." Lu Qiu withdrew her hand. "Then go look on other floors. I didn't hear anything."

"Didn't you hear that?" Brother Lu asked, puzzled. "It was so loud..."

"It's probably some stray cat. I vaguely heard it meowing too." When the elevator reached the first floor, Lu Qiu casually pressed the second button for his older brother. "Brother, get some rest."

"Hey, no," Brother Lu quickly said, "What are you doing? In the middle of the night..."

"Feed the stray cats." Lu Qiu raised his hand and pressed the close button, directly sending Brother Lu back to his room.

Brother Lu in the elevator looked completely bewildered.

Do stray cats all meow like that now? And they even pound the bed? Their house is so soundproofed, how could he hear them pounding the bed?

Could it be that Lu Qiu let the stray cat in but was too embarrassed to tell him?

Lu Qiu found a few egg tarts in the refrigerator. While heating them in the oven, he also took a bottle of milk and put it in the microwave. Thinking that Xia Wange usually had a big appetite, he rummaged through the drawers and found some frozen chicken wings in the freezer and put them in the air fryer.

While he was at it, he went to the car to get the clothes that Xia Wange had prepared for emergencies. In less than twenty minutes, Lu Qiu came upstairs with egg tarts, chicken wings and milk. When he entered the room, he found that Xia Wange had already fallen asleep on his bed.

Lu Qiu sighed softly, put the things on the bedside table, turned around and went to the dressing room to get a quilt, preparing to sleep on the sofa.

As soon as Lu Qiu lay down, he turned his head and saw Xia Wange sitting up and eating in a daze.

"I thought you were asleep," Lu Qiu said softly.

"She was asleep, but woke up when she smelled it." Xia Wange never cared about her image when eating in front of Lu Qiu. She finished her food in no time and started drinking milk from her cup.

"Your own change of clothes were placed by the bed, and there were disposable toiletries under the cabinet by the bathroom sink. There was also mouthwash if you were feeling really lazy."

Xia Wange gulped down the milk in one go, then got out of bed. "I'd better go wash up; I've been running around for days."

Xia Wange was quick; when she came out, she saw that Lu Qiu had already closed his eyes.

Lying in bed, Xia Wange couldn't resist opening her third eye to take a look.

Wow, the sky and the ground are filled with purple mist, and beneath the purple mist is a rich spiritual energy emanating from the jade.

She never dared to imagine such a scene before; she had never been so wealthy in her entire life.

Thinking back to how pathetic I was a little over a month ago, almost resorting to violence to snatch a wheelchair, I can't help but sigh. It's true what they say, fortunes change. Back then, when I tried to take your wheelchair, you gave me a bad luck buff, but now that I'm in your bed, you're sleeping on the sofa.

She turned her gaze to Lu Qiu's direction, pursed her lips, and whispered, "Lu Qiu—"

After a long pause, a muffled voice came from the other end, "Hmm?"

He hadn't rested well for the past few days, and unexpectedly, sleeping on the sofa made him feel sleepy, almost unable to keep his eyes open.

"Thanks."

Upon hearing the thank you, Lu Qiu's lips curled up slightly. "You're welcome."

Sure enough, they only say thank you after being fed.

Xia Wange closed her eyes, deeply grateful to Lu Qiu.

Actually, she said that she lost this time not for any other reason, but because of that evil aura. When she was fighting with them, someone lacked sportsmanship and came up with a shovel to hit her. At the same time, her arm was hit and she was also affected by the evil aura of the group of wizards. If it weren't for Lu Qiu, if she had to withstand this evil aura on her own, she would have had to lose at least ten months of merit.

Therefore, her long journey was truly an escape for her life.

However, because of Lu Qiu's existence, not only did her merits not decrease, but she also gained merits by seizing the evil cult's magical artifacts and consuming a portion of their malevolent energy.

If you do the math, the price has actually increased for over a month!

Moreover, Lu Qiu's leg has improved a lot.

Before falling completely asleep, Xia Wange went through the gains and losses in her mind and made a brief summary.

It's worth it.

They'll do it again next time.

As night deepened and time passed, the first light of dawn gradually appeared.

Lu Qiu slept very well. When he woke up, he found that Xia Wange had already left, and he felt a strange sense of loss.

He went to the bathroom and found that everything was clean and tidy. If it weren't for the plate and milk cup still being there, Lu Qiu would have thought he was hallucinating last night.

Downstairs, Mr. and Mrs. Lu got up and ate breakfast feeling refreshed. They saw their eldest son looking at them excitedly. "Mom and Dad, don't you always say I don't care about Lu Qiu? Let me tell you, Lu Qiu likes cats."

"A cat?" Lu's mother asked, puzzled.

"I heard a cat meowing yesterday, and Lu Qiu came down to get snacks in the middle of the night, so he must have let the cat in to feed it," Brother Lu said confidently. "So let's give him a cat for his birthday."

"You're not feeding him the frozen cod over there? Your cat likes egg tarts and chicken wings, doesn't he?" Mrs. Lu glanced at the refrigerator and knew what Lu Qiu had taken. "That shouldn't be the case; he never likes to eat these things."

"Change is always a good thing," said Mr. Lu. "Don't worry too much."

Brother Lu happened to see Lu Qiu coming to eat breakfast, so he said directly, "Qiu, it's your birthday, how about I give you a cat?"

"A cat?" Lu Qiu raised an eyebrow, then shook his head in confusion. "I don't plan to get a cat for the time being."

"Your older brother said you like it," said Lu's mother. "If you like it, then raise it. You don't need to take care of it. Your father and I will come over, and you can come back anytime to play with it."

Lu Qiu glanced at the milk on the table, took a small sip, and smiled lightly, "No need. I only like stray cats that scratch the glass in the middle of the night, never learn their lesson, and will show their claws when they're angry. They're the kind that's quite capable."

Lu's mother and father exchanged a glance, then looked at Lu's eldest brother, and the group silently took a sip of milk together.

Ouch... What's going on? Why do my teeth feel sore for no reason?
