Xiangling, do you believe in ghosts?

Yuan Qiang asked.

"I...I don't know either, but what they're saying is so scary. I always feel like someone is standing at the head of my bed when the lights are off."

Mao Xiangling said, feeling wronged.

"Xiangling, there are no ghosts in this world. When we went to military academy, there were graves on the hill behind the school."

We often conduct group training at night, going up the mountain to find signal points, sometimes spending the entire night searching.

We've walked so many graves on the mountain that we know where they are, and we haven't encountered anything strange.

Mao Xiangling nodded, but she was still scared.

"I'm probably the only one in the dorm. It would be great if I had another roommate."

Seeing that she still couldn't resolve her inner conflict, Yuan Qiang simply took her to a temple in Yongning City to pray for lucky bags and bracelets.

"I know the abbot of this temple. I can get you a lucky bag and a blessed bracelet. Wearing it will guarantee you a peaceful sleep."

Mao Xiangling followed Yuan Qiang with some skepticism. It was her first time entering a temple, and everything felt new and exciting.

"What's this?"

She pointed to a tree covered with red ribbons and asked.

"This is a marriage tree, used to pray for a good marriage. Why don't we both pray for one?"

Mao Xiangling found it very interesting; could one really seek marriage here?

"OK."

The two received red ribbons from the staff, wrote their wishes on them, tied them to lucky bags, and threw them onto the tree.

Immediately afterwards, Yuan Qiang drew a stick from the divination box, showed it to the monk, and secretly asked him a question.

"Master, I want to know how my relationship with that girl will develop in the future."

"This is an excellent fortune slip, very good. The interpretation is that sincerity will eventually lead to success. Do you understand?"

Yuan Qiang replied happily.

"Got it, got it!"

After choosing a bracelet for Mao Xiangling, he took her back to school.

Mao Xiangling insisted on giving money, but Yuan Qiang refused.

"This thing can only be paid for once; if you pay a second time, it won't work."

Mao Xiangling didn't understand, so she had to give up. She didn't want such a precious bracelet to end up being useless.

"Xiangling, take my military uniform back and hang it by your bed. That way, it'll be like I'm keeping you company tonight, so you won't be lonely."

"But if I take it, what will you wear?"

"The army gives out every year, I've had some, by the way, I heard from the older folks..."

"A soldier's uniform exudes righteousness and can dispel negative energy. Try taking it home; it might work."

Now, Mao Xiangling will not refuse anything that can help her solve her insomnia problem.

She couldn't wait to get a good night's sleep when she got home today.

"Okay, I'll take it back and try it out. If you need it someday, just contact me and come pick it up."

Yuan Qiang thought to himself:

"I wish you would stay with me forever, so that it would be like I'm with you every day."

Mao Xiangling returned to her dormitory and, following Yuan Qiang's instructions, put on the bracelet and placed his military uniform on her bedside table.

Whether it was psychological or the scent on Yuan Qiang's clothes that made her feel at ease, she didn't know.

She slept soundly all night and felt much more at ease.

Xia Enruo drew up the blueprints herself, found a carpenter, and asked him to renovate according to her requirements.

Currently, whole-house customization and commercial customization are not popular; all renovation work must be done by a carpenter.

"What is this? Will it look good like this? This is something I've never seen before. We've never decorated like this before."

The carpenter, holding the blueprints, shook his head.

"Don't worry, sir. It's absolutely right. Once you finish renovating this shop, you'll have completed the renovation process. It might even help you expand your market in the future."

"It's possible to decorate like this, but the labor costs will be higher. Your designs will require more materials than usual, and you'll also use more boards."

"No problem, I'll give you extra money for the work, but you have to deliver it to me with guaranteed quality and quantity. If the quality isn't up to standard, it won't do."

Upon hearing this, the carpenter thought that since the labor cost was higher, he didn't care how the work was done, since the employer was paying for it anyway.

"Don't worry, come and check it later. If it's not the same as your design, I won't charge you."

For the past month, Xia Enruo has been busy with the renovation of her new store while continuing to sell boxed lunches and collect laundry at her stall. However, due to limited time, she has been making fewer boxed lunches than before.

Many students missed out and expressed their regret.

In order to generate buzz for the new store in advance, Xia Enruo promised everyone that she would wait until the new store opened.

We will ensure that students can enjoy a wider variety of dishes and drink a wider variety of fruit teas.

When Wu Shaojun heard from his sister that Xia Enruo had been kidnapped, he took time out of his busy schedule to drive out of his workplace to visit her.

He also complained to his older sister, asking why she hadn't said anything sooner, since so much time had passed.

Wu Meixia was both amused and exasperated: "What's wrong? I told you earlier, you wouldn't have been of any help anyway."

Upon entering the military family compound and finding the doors locked, Ge Qiuqin told Shaojun that Xia Enruo had set up a stall at the entrance of the medical university.

He drove out again to look for it.

Xia Enruo was both surprised and delighted to see Wu Shaojun, and even gave him a cup of fruit tea.

"You've come at just the right time. I saved this fruit tea for myself to quench my thirst; any later and I would have drunk it."

"Sister, that means I'm still lucky. By the way, I heard from my older sister that you were kidnapped a while ago. How are you? Are you alright?"

Wu Shaojun really couldn't understand who could kidnap Xia Enruo. She had only been in Yongning for a short time and didn't know many people.

How did she end up getting involved with thugs?

"Brother, do you know what it means to be a big tree that catches the wind? Maybe someone is jealous of my booming business and feels bad about it, so they had me kidnapped."
