Lu Qing was kicked down the mountain by her master to find her fiancé right after her eighteenth birthday party.
When the entire capital found out that the eldest young master of the wealthy ...
That day, Lu Qing and the others were carrying the equipment back home. When they were going up the stairs, Leng Wei, who was at the back, accidentally slipped and almost fell down the steps with the equipment.
At the critical moment, a hand steadily supported her and even helped her lift the equipment.
"Miss, are you alright?"
Leng Wei breathed a sigh of relief and thanked them with a smile:
"Thank you, I'm fine!"
Lu Qing walked over, and his brows furrowed immediately upon seeing the girl who had saved Leng Wei:
"It's you!"
That's right, this person is Liu Manyun.
She looked at Lu Qing with a smile:
"Idol, we meet again!"
A look of wariness flashed in Lu Qing's eyes, and he immediately pulled Leng Wei over:
"You guys go back to the dorm first, I have something to say to her."
Seeing Lu Qing's serious expression, the others didn't ask any more questions and quickly left.
After they all left, Lu Qing said in a deep voice:
Let's find a place and talk!
Unlike Lu Qing's seriousness, Liu Manyun acted as if they were old friends, linking her arm with Lu Qing's as if they were old friends:
"Idol, don't be so serious!"
"I know you've been looking for me for days, but I wasn't at school."
"If I were at school and knew you were looking for me, I would come to see you right away."
Liu Manyun's face was plastered with a fawning smile.
Lu Qing tried to pull her arm away, but she held on tightly.
"Liu Manyun, who exactly are you? What is your purpose?"
"I'm just a little girl who admires you, what could my purpose be?" Liu Manyun said innocently.
Lu Qing looked at her face and couldn't see anything wrong with it from her appearance, but the divination result from that day had been hidden and she couldn't see it at all.
Seeing that Lu Qing remained wary, Liu Manyun sighed helplessly:
"Idol, why are you so guarded!"
"Would you be completely unguarded with a stranger you can't understand?" Lu Qing asked coldly.
Liu Manyun stuck out her tongue: "Okay!"
"Idol, let me treat you to milk tea. How about we chat while we drink?"
Lu Qing nodded slightly and followed Liu Manyun to the milk tea shop.
Before she could even say what she wanted, Liu Manyun ordered the drink she usually drank the most.
"How did you know what I like to drink? Are you spying on me?" Lu Qing's tone was tinged with anger.
Liu Manyun quickly waved her hand:
"No, no, no! I didn't. I'm not a sasaeng fan, why would I spy on you!"
"It's because you usually order too much. I've seen it happen several times, so I guessed you like this drink."
Seeing that Lu Qing was still tense, Liu Manyun couldn't help but feel a headache coming on:
"Idol, I won't hurt you. Don't be so wary. I'll tell you everything in a bit, okay?"
After saying that, Liu Manyun paid for the milk tea and pulled Lu Qing to a corner.
There weren't many people in the milk tea shop at that time, and their milk teas were served quickly.
Liu Manyun looked at Lu Qing with a grin:
"Idol, you're so fair-skinned!"
Lu Qing had just taken a sip of milk tea when he heard this and almost spat it all out.
"Liu Manyun, are you sick in the head?!" Lu Qing looked at Liu Manyun strangely and silently moved a little further away.
Liu Manyun quickly explained:
"Idol, don't be afraid. I'm not a lesbian. I've always admired you from afar, but I was too nervous last time to get a good look. This is the first time I've seen you up close like this."
"Your skin is so fair, you can't even see your pores, how do you take care of it? And you're so thin, how can you eat so much? And..."
Before Liu Manyun could finish speaking, Lu Qing interrupted her:
"stop!!!"
"Stop with the nonsense and explain yourself clearly," Lu Qing said coldly.
Liu Manyun pouted and said aggrievedly, "You explained everything so quickly and then left without saying a word to me."
"If you don't tell me, I'm leaving now."
Lu Qing made a move to get up and leave, but Liu Manyun quickly grabbed her:
"Okay, okay! Don't go, I'll tell you."
Liu Manyun sighed and said:
Do you know about the Heavenly Secrets Sect?
Lu Qing frowned slightly: "I seem to have vaguely heard my master mention it, but the Tianji Sect has been out of the public eye for a long time. Are you a member of the Tianji Sect?"
Liu Manyun nodded slightly: "Yes, Liu Mosheng, the leader of the Tianji Sect, is my brother."
Lu Qing was somewhat surprised, as this was the first time in her life she had met someone from the Tianji Sect in real life.
Although many people in the Xuanmen sect are skilled in divination and fortune-telling, the techniques used by the Tianji sect are different from theirs.
The Heavenly Mystery Sect houses the world's largest Heaven-Gazing Array, with its core being a compass transformed from the golden body of an Earth Immortal. This array is truly capable of revealing the secrets of heaven.
Lu Qing nodded slightly: "You're from the Heavenly Mystery Sect, no wonder they couldn't read your divination!"
“Idol, actually your divination skills are already very impressive. My destiny was hidden by my brother. If it were your master, there might be a slight chance of finding out,” Liu Manyun said with a smile.
"So why did you help me?" Lu Qing asked.
Liu Manyun took a sip of milk tea, her lowered eyes flickered a few times, and when she looked up, she grinned and said:
"Of course it's because you're my idol. It's only right that I help my idol."
"Tell the truth," Lu Qing said sternly.
Liu Manyun blurted out:
"Because my brother asked me to help you. I don't know the specific reason, but when I heard that my brother was going to send someone to stay by your side and help you, I volunteered to come."
That's all I can say. As for the rest, I either can't say or I don't know.
Lu Qing frowned: "Is there anything else you're hiding from me?"
Liu Manyun quickly covered her mouth: "Idol, you also know that heavenly secrets cannot be revealed, or you will be punished by heaven."
"Can you bear to see your fans get struck by lightning and turned into crispy crumbs?" Liu Manyun pouted pitifully.
Lu Qing frowned: "You've already confessed, is there any need to keep pretending?"
Liu Manyun was stunned for a moment, then, realizing what Lu Qing meant, she quickly stood up and raised her hand as if to swear an oath:
"Idol, I'm not faking it, everything I told you is true."
Lu Qing scoffed: "Was everything you said when we first met true?"
Liu Manyun nodded repeatedly: "Of course! Every word I said is true. If I were lying, you would have seen through it long ago."
"You say you're my fan, and that you learned about me from your brother, but is your brother really in the investigation bureau?"
Liu Manyun nodded: "Yes! My brother worked in the Investigation Bureau, but that was a long time ago. I just didn't say when."
"It's true that I admire you, it's true that I have a brother, it's true that my brother told me about you, and everything I said is true."
"I did this to lure you into investigating the Bureau of Investigation's espionage activities, but everything I said was true. It's just that your understanding is somewhat one-sided!"
"You..." Lu Qing was speechless.
She felt like she'd been tricked but couldn't get angry.
Liu Manyun quickly coaxed, "Idol, idol, I know I was wrong, please don't be angry!"
"I didn't do it on purpose. It's all my brother's fault for not letting me go to the investigation bureau. Otherwise, I would have solved it for you, and I wouldn't have needed to use such a stupid method to lure you into the investigation."
Liu Manyun silently cursed her brother eight hundred times in her heart.
