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

After Lu Qiu used a lot of positive adjectives, he saw that Xia Wange was still covering her mouth with her hand, listening attentively.

Lu Qiu understood what she meant.

Not enough, we need more.

Having run out of words, Lu Qiu drank some tea and continued, "Possessing both literary and martial talents, omnipotent, eloquent, and with a virtuous appearance... never picking up lost items..."

"Alright, alright, that's enough." Xia Wange, having had her fill of listening, coughed lightly. "Why? Why can you hear my thoughts? And others' too?"

"I don't know." Lu Qiu shook his head and answered truthfully, "I can only hear about what others can't, and I only realized this after I met you."

"How strange." Xia Wange cautiously touched the desk that Lu Qiu was touching, her mind racing with questions. [Test! Test! (Test, test), knock knock knock, one two one two two one two, can you hear me? Can you hear me?]

Lu Qiu nodded and said, "I can hear you."

Xia Wange looked surprised. After releasing her grip, she secretly braced herself against the desk with her feet and knees. [Test! Can you hear me?]

Lu Qiu continued, "I can hear you."

"[Can you hear me? I don't believe it.]" Xia Wange continued to think to herself. "[Repeat what I said—give Xia Wange a raise.]"

Lu Qiu pursed his lips, looked at Xia Wange's bright eyes, and laughed speechlessly. She clearly earned quite a bit herself, but she was being stingy with him. "Give Xia Wange a raise."

Xia Wange immediately laughed and said, "Oh dear, boss, this is so sudden! Why are you suddenly giving me a raise? Nobody asked me to. But thank you, boss!"

Lu Qiu: "..."

Have you no shame? Have some shame at all!

I'll try something else.

As Xia Wange thought to herself, under Lu Qiu's astonished yet somewhat matter-of-fact gaze, she directly pressed her back against the table and curled up on the ground.

Now? Now? Two one two one two one.

"212121, I can hear you." Lu Qiu cooperated perfectly.

I'll try again.

Thinking this, Xia Wange suddenly moved closer to Lu Qiu. Under the other's slightly shocked gaze, she slowly bent down and carefully touched the table with the tip of her nose, trying her best to keep the rest of her body from touching the table.

Now? Three, two, one; three, two, one.

Lu Qiu, who had momentarily stopped breathing, slowly exhaled: "..."

[Huh? Can't you hear me?]

Lu Qiu: "Three, two, one."

Haha, I suddenly realized this is actually pretty good. I don't have to say anything, I just hear you talking, it makes me feel like an idiot.

"Xia Wange," Lu Qiu glanced at her sideways, "please be mindful of your words."

Okay, okay, I can only hear you talking. You seem like a civilized idiot.

[Heart-pounding silence, you deserve it.]

Lu Qiu: "..."

After completing a series of tests, Xia Wange sat back in her chair, sighing inwardly: It's actually possible to hear someone's thoughts. Although it's a bit sudden, it's not so hard to accept given the limitations. After all, you don't know what caused it, so let it be and let nature take its course.

After thinking it over, Xia Wange looked at Lu Qiu.

Lu Qiu looked at her blankly.

Xia Wange looked puzzled.

Lu Qiu remained bewildered.

"Oh, oh, oh." Xia Wange quickly replied, "I forgot, I didn't touch the table just now. It's so convenient that you can just think about what I'm going to say. It feels a little awkward to suddenly start talking to you."

Lu Qiu: "..."

"So, we've successfully confessed now?"

【Hmm.】 Xia Wange nodded, her feet resting on the desk, arms crossed, her expression solemn. 【Your problem can't be solved for now, so let's just keep an eye on it. As for my problem, just return the sign to me.】

"I won't return it." Lu Qiu replied quickly, and continued to explain under the other person's surprised gaze, "Since there's no solution for me to hear your thoughts for the time being, you can leave the sign with me. That's fairer to you."

[Tsk, the chosen one is indeed the chosen one. That's a grand statement, I admit I'm no match for it.]

Lu Qiu: "..."

Is there anything else you need to tell me? Sometimes I see you get a little nervous when you hear about ghosts or monsters. Are you scared? Take this opportunity to tell me.

Lu Qiu: "I'm not afraid!"

After speaking, Lu Qiu realized that he seemed to have spoken a little too quickly, and, meeting Xia Wange's gaze, forced himself to say, "I wasn't nervous, I was excited."

"It's just the excitement of realizing you're about to explore the unknown."

"Really?" Xia Wange raised an eyebrow.

"real."

Xia Wange pouted, "Then I'll just believe you for now."

"And you?" Lu Qiu retorted, "For example, you always like to exaggerate things to indirectly highlight your own abilities?"

"Nonsense!" Xia Wange said excitedly. "You need evidence to support your claims. If you keep saying this about me, I'll sue you for defamation."

"Oh." Lu Qiu, "Okay, so I misunderstood."

The two sized each other up for a while, and both could see the word "meeting adjourned" in each other's eyes.

Xia Wange got up and opened the door. Just as she opened the door, Du Yun almost fell into the office.

Du Yun glanced at Xia Wange, then at Lu Qiu, before leaning closer to Xia Wange and whispering, "What were you two talking about? I only heard Lu Qiu's voice."

After saying that, Du Yun quickly added, "I didn't hear a single word you were saying. I just vaguely heard Lu Qiu talking. What's wrong? Is he going crazy and starting a meeting for you?"

"Yes." Xia Wange nodded. "He's basically giving me a meeting."

Du Yun stared wide-eyed, finding it unbelievable. He went straight to Lu Qiu to remind him not to spread the "class smell" to Master Xia, otherwise, if the metaphysics master was as busy as if he were at a job, how terrifying would this world become?

Xia Wange went out to get a charger and came back to snuggle into the top-grain leather sofa in Lu Qiu's office to play on her phone.

Her phone had been almost out of battery for the past few days, and she had been so busy that she hadn't been able to touch it. Only now did she have time to charge it and check her messages.

As soon as I opened WeChat, my phone froze again.

Even with her new phone, Xia Wange suddenly felt like she had developed a fear of WeChat and didn't really want to open it anymore.

As expected, when she opened it, she found that she had been added to some discussion group again. She quickly went online to find out how to turn off being added to groups, set it up, and then set it to not notify her of a bunch of group messages. Finally, Xia Wange saw her best friend Zhao Wan's message at the bottom.

Wanwan became rich overnight: [Hey sis, wanna hook up? I just finished one of my projects~]

Xia Wange quickly replied: 【Let's go! Let's go!】

They replied quite quickly.

Wanwan became rich overnight: [This message is from four days ago. Why didn't you wait until I was dead to make the date?]

May Xiaxia live to be a hundred years old: [That's not impossible]
