Chapter 38: Not Knowing the Highness of Heaven and the Thickness of Earth
Lu Huaizhou walked into the office. He was wearing a pair of gold-rimmed glasses. He looked gentle and elegant, with a hint of abstinence.
When Ye Chuheng saw him, there was a flash of surprise in his eyes.
"Honey, when did you start wearing glasses? They look so nice."
Lu Huaizhou reached out and pushed the frame, "I wear it when I'm working."
Ye Chuheng hugged his waist, feeling very jealous. "Really? Then wouldn't that mean many people have seen you wearing glasses?"
Lu Huaizhou was speechless, "Ye Chuheng, that's my job."
Ye Chuheng touched his gold-rimmed glasses frame and said, "It looks great. I like it very much."
"Don't you want to eat?" Lu Huaizhou pushed him away.
"Yeah." Ye Chuheng pulled him to the table and sat down.
Lu Huaizhou looked at the five dishes and one soup on the table and his mouth twitched, "Ye Chuheng, there are only two of us."
Ye Chuheng brought him rice and soup, "It's okay, my wife can eat as much as she can, and I'll eat the rest."
"You like eating leftovers?" Lu Huaizhou joked.
Ye Chuheng chuckled, "Yeah, I love eating my wife's leftovers."
Lu Huaizhou rolled his eyes, saying this as if their family couldn't afford to buy vegetables.
"Why did Mr. Yan come to see you?" Lu Huaizhou knew Mr. Yan, but he was not familiar with him.
He didn't have much contact with the metaphysical circle, and usually Lu Xiaoling and Jiang Yinan handled any matters.
"Do you know what happened to the Pei family?" Ye Chuheng asked him.
"I heard that Pei Zhijie's second uncle had a relapse of his hidden illness and is in a coma in the hospital."
Lu Huaizhou only knew this, and nothing more. "Do you know what's going on?"
Ye Chuheng nodded, "I know, he suffered backlash."
"Backlash?" Lu Huaizhou stopped his hand as it was about to pick up some food.
He had heard of backlash, but had never seen it.
"Yes, he did something to you, and I blocked his spell, so he suffered the backlash."
"He did something to me? What?" Lu Huaizhou looked down at himself. He didn't feel anything was wrong with him.
"Well, he tried to steal your luck training, but he was disconnected just as he connected, so you didn't notice."
"But I have never had any contact with Pei Zhijie's second uncle, and I don't even know him." Lu Huaizhou frowned.
Ye Chuheng shook his head. "You haven't had any contact with him, but you have had contact with Pei Zhijie. He used Pei Zhijie as a medium to cast the spell on you."
"Could it be the Yin energy from yesterday?"
"Yes." Ye Chuheng nodded. "The storage ring I gave you yesterday can dispel evil spirits and dispel curses. Once you put it on, the curse he cast on you will be dispelled."
"Why would he want to borrow my luck to cultivate? Although the Pei family's business is not as large as the Lu family's, it is still among the top ten in the country, which means their luck is not bad either."
Lu Huaizhou didn't think he was lucky. He had a weak soul and a very poor physique since he was a child. He needed special care for everything he ate and played with.
Ye Chuheng explained to him, "He practices an evil method that relies on absorbing other people's luck to improve his cultivation."
"Since we can't touch our own family, we can only find someone from outside. I guess he has absorbed the luck of many people before, and now he has reached a bottleneck, so he will start with you."
"Does Pei Zhijie know?" Lu Huaizhou asked calmly.
Ye Chuheng shook his head. "Whether he knows or not, I don't understand. Because the medium is something that doesn't necessarily require the person to know."
"It's possible that Pei Zhijie's second uncle knew that Pei Zhijie was coming to discuss the contract with you, so he deliberately left it on him. As soon as he comes into contact with you, the spell will take effect immediately."
"It's also possible that Pei Zhijie knows and coming to you to discuss the contract is just an excuse."
"Based on your understanding of him, which one do you think it will be?"
Lu Huaizhou pondered for a moment before speaking, "Based on my understanding of him, I think it's the former."
If Pei Zhijie knew about this, he could just end the negotiations directly and there would be no need to make another appointment.
But he made an appointment.
Lu Huaizhou turned the ring on his hand and asked, "Master Yan asked you to save him?"
"He asked me to go and take a look, but I refused." Ye Chuheng picked up some food for him. "I showed mercy by not killing the person who wanted to hurt you."
Lu Huaizhou lowered his eyes to glance at the fish in the bowl, curled his lips, and said, "Well, let's eat."
"Okay, let's not talk about these unhappy things."
......
After Mr. Yan returned to the hospital, the Pei family gathered around him expectantly.
"Mr. Yan, has that master been invited?" Father Pei asked, his eyes constantly looking behind Mr. Yan.
When he saw that there was no one behind him, the light in his eyes gradually dimmed.
Elder Yan shook his head and said, "The master refused. Now it all depends on Xiaoyuan's luck."
Fear flashed across Father Pei's eyes, and then he excitedly grabbed Elder Yan's arm and said, "Elder Yan, please tell me who the master is. I'll go and ask him for help."
If Pei Yuan doesn't wake up, what will happen to what their family has done before?
If no one controls them and the forces become unbalanced, a catastrophe will be waiting for the Pei family.
Old Yan brushed away Pei's hand and shook his head. "It's useless. Xiao Yuan has gotten into big trouble this time."
"He messed with the wrong people."
Father Pei frowned, "Could you please tell me who this person is who shouldn't be offended?"
"Don't you know who it is?" Old Yan glared at him.
He didn't believe that Pei's father knew nothing.
"How should I know? I only know that Xiaoyuan said Lu..."
Pei's father stopped talking halfway through. He glanced at Pei Zhijie and asked Old Yan, "Could it be him?"
"But doesn't he have any at home?"
Old Yan sneered, "Anyone who dares to scheme against you really doesn't know how high the heavens are and how deep the earth is."
"I will no longer be involved in this matter. You, the Pei family, can take care of yourselves."
Pei Zhijie didn't understand what they were talking about, so he interrupted and asked, "Mr. Yan, Dad, what are you talking about?"
Mother Pei tugged at him and said, "Children, don't ask too much about adult matters."
For a long time, Pei Zhijie only knew that Pei Yuan had a master who was good at fortune-telling.
But he didn't know exactly what Pei Yuan had learned.
Because Pei Yuan didn't tell him, Pei's father and mother would not tell him either.
This means that everyone in the Pei family is hiding the truth from Pei Zhijie.
"Child? Mom, I'm not a child anymore." Pei Zhijie retorted.
"If you're willing, go and plead with Lu Huaizhou and ask him to help our family. You can't help with anything else."
Pei's father said impatiently.
Mr. Yan had just turned around, but stopped again when he heard this. He turned back and said to Pei Zhijie, "I advise you not to go."
After saying that, he left.
Anyway, he has done his best and will not have any contact with the Pei family in the future.
If his friend distanced himself from him because of this, he would be relieved.
Friendship is good, but there is no need to offend Ye Chuheng for this.
"Lu Huaizhou?" Pei Zhijie frowned. "What does this have to do with Lu Huaizhou? Dad, are you hiding something from me?"
"Go to the company first. You don't have to worry about this place." Pei's father gestured to Pei's mother.
Pei's mother understood, "Xiaojie, you go to work first, we'll be here."
Pei Zhijie was very disappointed, but his father and mother were unwilling to say anything, so he could do nothing.
So I could only nod, "Okay, I understand."
But as soon as he left the hospital, he called Lu Huaizhou.
