Chapter 289 Returning Home



"You don't like my presence? I can sense your disgust!" The god's tone held a hint of confusion.

"I'm trying to help you? Why are you rejecting me?"

Gu Xicheng really wanted to roll his eyes at him:

"You almost killed my wife, and you expect me to greet you with a smile?"

The deity said, "Try to suppress your human emotions; the deity has no need for them."

Upon hearing this, Gu Xicheng only replied with two words: "You're sick."

If he had any other choice, he would have liked to kick this guy out of his head.

Although it was a past life, they were still two different people.

Gu Xicheng now feels like he's being parasitized, which makes him very unhappy.

Sensing Gu Xicheng's thoughts once again, the deity spoke again:

“I am a god, I would not do something like parasitism. What is in your body now is just a wisp of my remaining divine consciousness.”

Gu Xicheng couldn't help but get angry:

"Can you know everything I'm thinking?"

In his haste, he blurted out the words, startling everyone.

Lu Qing quickly realized what was happening and hurriedly said:

"Of course! We're on the same wavelength, how could I not know what you're thinking?"

Gu Xicheng paused for a moment, then coughed lightly, covering his mouth, and said:

"I'm done eating, you can continue eating."

After saying that, he went back to his room.

Lu Qing followed him inside shortly afterward.

"Gu Xicheng, what just happened to you? Was it that god...?"

Gu Xicheng sighed and said helplessly:

“After I forged the divine bone, he was able to wake up in my mind for a period of time, but he would also fall into a deep sleep. I was just talking to him.”

"Is he still awake?" Lu Qing asked.

Gu Xicheng nodded: "I don't know how long he'll be awake."

Lu Qing's eyes darted around: "Why don't we let him fall asleep on his own?"

Gu Xicheng: "Qingqing, do you have a way to put him back into a deep sleep?"

"Hehe!" Lu Qing grinned, his smile somewhat strange.

"This method is a bit underhanded, but it might work well for him."

"What method?" Gu Xicheng asked, his face full of curiosity.

Lu Qing tiptoed, wrapped her arms around Gu Xicheng's neck, and kissed him:

"Close your eyes and imagine that kind of joy, preferably like playing a movie in your mind."

With a beautiful woman in his arms, Gu Xicheng couldn't help but think about her, even if he wanted to.

This was like poison to that god; as soon as he sensed it, he immediately fell into a deep sleep.

Lu Qing released Gu Xicheng and asked with a smile, "How was it?"

Gu Xicheng closed his eyes and glanced at it:

"As expected, they've fallen silent."

Lu Qing raised an eyebrow smugly: "If he bothers you again in the future, just use this to deal with him."

"Dealing with a petty person may be difficult, but dealing with a gentleman is very simple."

Gu Xicheng: "I don't think he's a gentleman at all. He's more like a piece of wood that's been stripped of its emotions, claiming to be without desires and unable to have even a trace of emotion. But having never experienced joy, anger, sorrow, or happiness, what right does he have to talk about abandoning them!"

Unbeknownst to Gu Xicheng, the deity in his mind quietly opened its eyes.

He took these words to heart, and a hint of confusion flashed in his eyes.

...

The May Day holiday was coming to an end. After resting for a day, Lu Qing and his group packed up and headed back to China.

Although we didn't visit many tourist attractions on this trip, the underwater tomb was a novel experience.

Most importantly, both Lu Qing and Gu Xicheng have refined their divine bones, which is a huge gain.

On the first day of school, Lu Qing was the first to return to the dormitory.

She woke up the little paper figures and had them clean the dormitory.

During the holiday, it rained for several days in Kyoto, so the dormitory was inevitably a bit damp.

Taking advantage of the sunny day, Lu Qing opened both the balcony door and the main door to let the house air out, and then moved a deck chair onto the balcony to sunbathe.

The little paper figures were cleaning when they suddenly heard footsteps outside. They immediately lay down and pretended to be dead.

"Excuse me... is anyone home?"

Lu Qing immediately opened her eyes, got up and walked out.

The person who came was a girl wearing glasses.

"Who are you looking for?" Lu Qing asked.

"Are you... Lu Qing?" the girl asked tentatively.

Lu Qing was somewhat surprised: "Yes, I am Lu Qing, and you are..."

A smile immediately appeared on the girl's face, and she quickly stepped forward:

"Um... my name is Meng Siqi, and I'd like to ask you for a favor!"

"You want my help?" Lu Qing frowned in confusion.

Meng Siqi nodded vigorously, then lowered her voice and said:

"I've watched your previous live streams, and I know you can tell fortunes. I'd like to ask you to tell my fortune."

"Don't worry, I won't ask you for help for nothing; I'll pay you."

Lu Qing glanced at her face and then said, "Come in!"

Lu Qing poured her a glass of water, then sat down and asked, "What kind of divination do you need me to do?"

Meng Siqi's eyes were full of worry: "My mother has a serious illness, and the doctor recommended that she have surgery, but the surgery is very invasive, and my mother is very resistant to it."

"She keeps saying she feels there's nothing seriously wrong with her body and doesn't want to have surgery. I'd like to ask you to do a divination to see if my mother should have this surgery?"

Lu Qing nodded: "Okay! Tell me your mother's name, age, zodiac sign, and birthday, and I'll cast a divination for you."

Lu Qing spread out the divination plate, gently shook the tortoise shell, and the copper coins quickly fell down.

Looking at the divination results, Lu Qing frowned slightly:

"This surgery cannot be performed."

“If I do it, my mom will die, right? But the doctor said that if I don’t do it, my mom won’t live much longer either!” Meng Siqi was still conflicted.

Lu Qing gently moved the copper coin and said in a deep voice:

"I suggest you take your mother to several hospitals for checkups. This hospital... is not trustworthy."

"You mean that doctor is lying!" Meng Siqi exclaimed.

Lu Qing: "In short, take her to a few more hospitals for a check-up. She's not old enough to die yet!"

Upon hearing this, Meng Siqi immediately breathed a sigh of relief and nodded with a smile:

"I understand! Thank you!"

"How much does that cost? I'll transfer the money to you right now."

Lu Qing showed her Gu Xicheng's QR code for payment: "Scan this, two hundred."

Meng Siqi promptly paid the money.

Not long after, Lu Qing received a message from Gu Xicheng: [Made money again!]

Lu Qing: [I did a quick divination; I've got the money for tonight's late-night snack.]

Gu Xicheng: [My Qingqing is so great!]

While they were exchanging messages, Gu Fei and Leng Wei returned, and Lu Qing quickly replied to Gu Xicheng:

[That's all for now, Feifei and Weiwei are back, we need to tidy up the dorm.]

Gu Xicheng: [Okay.]

As Lu Qing put away her phone and was about to tidy up the things on the table, her right eyelid suddenly twitched a few times, and a feeling of unease suddenly welled up in her heart.

"What happened?"

Lu Qing frowned and cast another divination, but this time the result was unclear, though a copper coin landed on the "Startle Gate" (惊门).

Will there be any changes in the matter concerning Meng Siqi?

Lu Qing was worried and wanted to bring Meng Siqi back, but she had already disappeared and could not be found at all.
