Wanwan becomes rich overnight: [It's late, I'm busy with work, let's make an appointment after I finish what I'm doing.]

Xia Wange was checking who hadn't replied to their messages when she scrolled up and saw a message Fang Qingzi had sent her three days ago.

Fang Qingzi: [Uncle-Master Xia, things here are a bit tricky, I can't handle them by myself. If you have time, you might need to come over. *fist bump*]

Fang Qingzi: [After I arrived here, I discovered that the entire village had been affected. Everyone was experiencing excessive sleepiness and nightmares, and their condition was even more severe than Mr. Ming's. I wanted to visit their ancestral graves, but the villagers were both wary of my identity and afraid that I would damage their graves, so they tried to stop me. Mr. Ming was also helpless with the villagers here. It's like this place is isolated from the world, with backward customs and a poor, desolate environment.]

Fang Qingzi: [Mr. Ming wanted to move his family's ancestral graves separately, but as soon as the idea came up, the graves were taken up by guards in shifts, making it impossible to move them.]

Fang Qingzi: [Uncle Xia, I secretly went to the ancestral graves today. It felt like there was a formation set up there, as if they were raising something. After I came back, I also started experiencing excessive sleepiness and vivid dreams.]

Fang Qingzi: [Uncle Xia, I had a dream... I dreamt about...]

Fang Qingzi's message was sent over two days, and there was no follow-up after that. Xia Wange's heart skipped a beat, and she quickly sent a message.

Is he still alive?

There was no response from the other end. Just as Xia Wange was about to make a call, Fang Qingzi replied.

[Uncle Xia, you're still alive, but you're quite tired.]

Xia Wange: [Why didn't you finish sending the message above? I thought you did *that*.]

Fang Qingzi: [As soon as I woke up, I wanted to tell my martial uncle what you dreamed about, but I forgot. Later, I was just too sleepy, and it's rather cold here, so it's hard to wake up at night.]

Xia Wange: [Wait, I'm coming.]

After speaking, Xia Wange looked at Lu Qiu, who was reviewing documents, and Du Yun, who was beside him, who had been talking until his mouth was dry and was drinking water.

She walked over and placed her hand on the desk.

[There's something going on. We need to go to Mr. Ming's hometown, a place called Xiucai Village. It's quite far north, and the road isn't very good. Are you going?]

Lu Qiu looked up and nodded. "Go."

"Go where?" Du Yun put down her cup. "Did you even listen to what I said?"

Are you sure? This trip might be a bit tiring.

Lu Qiu said earnestly, "I'm not afraid of hard work."

"Oh my god, Mr. President, you may not be afraid of hard work, but I am!" Du Yun said angrily. "I've been reading a lot of theories about cause and effect lately. When Master Xia is relatively free, then by reasoning from the effect to the cause, there are fewer paranormal events in the world. If you keep Master Xia busy, won't the world fall into chaos? You may not be afraid of hard work, but you can't let the world's order be disrupted."

Lu Qiu sighed deeply. "I didn't talk to you."

"Tsk, you weren't talking to me but you were talking to Master Xia? Do you two communicate by telepathy? Master Xia clearly didn't say a word." Du Yun said seriously, "Lu Qiu, Lu Qiu, don't lose your virtue of not shirking responsibility too."

Lu Qiu: "..."

Xia Wange glanced at Du Yun a few times and suddenly realized that the "heartfelt message" function was really useful for sending messages proactively.

I'll set off now to make the arrangements; you can come tomorrow.

Lu Qiu pursed her lips, glanced at Du Yun, and said, "I'll go this afternoon."

"Tsk. Lu Qiu, are you on the phone?" Du Yun finally noticed the problem. "Where's your Bluetooth headset? What, are Bluetooth headsets now all the rage in your ears? Did the R&D department give you a chance to try out their new product? How come I didn't know? You should have said you were on the phone earlier, you've made me look like an idiot."

Lu Qiu glanced at Du Yun, then at her again, and said, "Aren't you one?"

Du Yun acted as if she hadn't heard him and simply sat down to the side, saying, "I'll just pretend you're on the phone."

Lu Qiu rubbed his temples and said to Xia Wange, "You go first, I'll give you some instructions."

Du Yun, sensing something was wrong, stood up and immediately wanted to slip away.

He had actually been avoiding Lu Qiu a lot lately, so he went to various companies to discuss cooperation and projects. Unexpectedly, things turned out quite well, and he completed this quarter's KPI in one go. He was just bored, and seeing that Master Xia was here and Lu Qiu was more easy to talk to, he came to provoke Lu Qiu, who was very busy, so as to show off his relaxed feeling of being free from "work".

But Lu Qiu's last words set off alarm bells for him.

Xia Wange originally wanted to make another sarcastic remark, but the situation was urgent and she needed to prepare, so she left directly.

Du Yun originally wanted to leave with Xia Wange, but was stopped by Assistant Xu who just entered the room. He skillfully pulled Du Yun back to Lu Qiu's side.

Lu Qiu straightened up from a pile of documents, called over Assistant Xu, and said to Du Yun, "From now on, all my work will be temporarily handed over to Director Du. He will chair the meetings, approve the procedures, let him get off work overtime, and you can go home after work. Your salary is up to him. On the days I am not here, your bonus will be doubled as compensation for mental distress."

After saying that, Lu Qiu waved his hand.

Lured by the promise of double the bonus, Assistant Xu perked up immediately, grabbed the documents, and began following Du Yun. "Director Du, there's a meeting in an hour, the agenda will last about half an hour, followed by a remote meeting at an uncertain time. There's also a collaboration to discuss this afternoon..."

Du Yun: "..."

Du Yun, who had been forced to take over Lu Qiu's job at the company before, had lost all her light in her eyes.

Since Lu Qiu developed a serious leg problem a year ago and took on the company's responsibilities on his own, Lu Qiu discovered his exceptional abilities beneath his handsome and dashing exterior and began to give him more challenges.

But I've never swung my arm so thoroughly before!

He should have just stayed out all day. Why did he have to show off in front of Lu Qiu when he had nothing better to do?

"Lu Qiu, I'm going to sign any contracts I don't know!"

Master Xia is away on a business trip, and Lu Qiu is also preparing to go on one! They're not taking me along!

"Whatever you want," Lu Qiu said while considering which jade stones to bring in the lounge. "You also have shares in the company. If it goes bankrupt, you can go back home and fight for your inheritance."

Du Yun: "..."

So angry.

Du Yun threw several punches into the air, but in the end, he could only helplessly start looking at the procedures.

So for the next few days, the low mood in the general office continued, only this time it was someone else.

Xia Wange arrived at her destination in the morning, and Lu Qiu followed closely behind in the afternoon, accompanied only by Zhang Song, who had finished recuperating.

As soon as Zhang Song returned, he heard that he would be going on a business trip with President Lu and working with Master Xia. He was very excited because the destination also included Lu's businesses, and he was responsible for coordinating and arranging matters there almost the entire way.

Although Lu Qiu suddenly handed over all the work to Du Yun, he would still help with some of it while he was still able to handle it himself.

After getting off the plane, Zhang Song said, "President Lu, Master Xia said he prepared a convertible for us in the town closest to Xiucai Village. Do we still need to prepare a car?"

"A convertible?" Lu Qiu raised an eyebrow slightly, somewhat suspicious. "Then let someone take us to that town to meet her."

Zhang Song was quite happy to hear this. After all, President Lu had many business cars and sports cars, but he hadn't touched them since his leg problem occurred. Fortunately, Master Xia was now giving him the opportunity to drive a sports car!

Lu Qiu originally planned to look at the contract a little longer in the car, but Xia Wange was unusually generous, so he didn't want to argue. He was also secretly worried that something might have happened to make her so generous, and he felt that this problem might be quite tricky.

But after a bumpy ride, the two finally arrived in town and saw Xia Wange sitting in a convertible.

Lu Qiu finally breathed a sigh of relief. That's right, that makes sense. He was wondering why Xia Wange would suddenly be so generous.

Still unaccustomed to Xia Wange's style, Zhang Song was so astonished that it took him a few minutes to stammer, "Master Xia, is a tractor considered a convertible?"
