"This guy actually asked me for something? Really..."
Upon hearing Xu Lu's words, Boss Yang's expression froze, and he almost lost his temper.
But then she suddenly realized that the reason she had asked the other person to go to Shanghai wasn't related to acting, but rather to some kind of feng shui issue related to an overpass—it all sounded very mysterious.
"Xu Lu knows about feng shui? Really?" This was what Boss Yang was thinking when someone approached her and asked her to help make connections.
However, because the person who came to her door had an unusual relationship with her and was a relative of her uncle's generation, Boss Yang could not refuse and eventually dialed Xu Lu's number.
That's right! The mysterious call Xu Lu received came from Boss Yang, his boss at the agency. Otherwise, he wouldn't have bothered with him!
"Boss, have you figured out what benefits you want from me? If you have, I'll leave now."
After a brief silence on the other end, Xu Lu urged them again.
Coming to his senses, Boss Yang's eyes darted around, and he said:
"Ahem, Xu Lu, I'll keep the benefits for now and remember them. There's something else I forgot to tell you."
Dilraba is in Shanghai right now, filming a show alone. She's unfamiliar with the place, why don't you go visit her on set...?
"What does that girl having in Shanghai have to do with me? Fine, fine, I'll buy a plane ticket right away!"
Xu Lu first distanced himself from the matter before accepting it.
However, after hanging up the phone, seeing the address for Reba that Boss Yang immediately sent him, he muttered to himself:
"So that girl was participating in some kind of program in Shanghai. She was so secretive when I asked her before."
"Forget about the overpass. Let's give Boss Yang face, and I can also check on that girl, Reba..."
...
Xu Lu bought a plane ticket at the time, then boarded the plane empty-handed, and arrived at Shanghai Airport a few hours later.
"Mr. Xu, over here, over here!"
Xu Lu was wondering where he should stay tonight when someone unexpectedly waved to him.
Xu Lu walked over, somewhat bewildered.
Before he could even speak, the other person introduced himself:
"Mr. Xu, I am Tang Yu, the one with the live stream ID 'Feiyu Tangchao'..."
"Oh, so you're the researcher from the overpass area. But how did you know I was coming?"
Xu Lu nodded and asked a question out of curiosity.
After all, he had rejected the researcher named Tang Yu outright during the live stream.
Unexpectedly, the other party was actually waiting for him at the airport, clearly knowing that he was coming.
As expected, Tang Yu smiled and said:
“Mr. Xu, I initially thought you wouldn’t come, but then I heard from the person in charge that they used other connections to persuade you to come…”
Xu Lu nodded.
The other relationships the other party mentioned were clearly Yang's connections. It's quite a coincidence.
"So where do we go now?"
Xu Lu asked a question.
Tang Yu led the way, saying:
"Mr. Xu, if you're hungry, I'll take you to eat. If you're not hungry, I'll drive you to the hotel first, and I'll pick you up tomorrow to deal with the overpass issue!"
"Okay, then just take me to the hotel."
Xu Lu nodded and casually said something.
Once he got in the car, he didn't say much, just looked at the scenery outside through the window.
He had never been to Shanghai before, but as someone with feng shui skills, Xu Lu noticed something strange about the feng shui of this area after observing it for a while.
"Tang Yu, what is that tall building over there? When was it built?"
Xu Lu asked.
As a local, Tang Yu knew more about the situation and replied:
“Mr. Xu, that’s the most bustling area in the entire city of Shanghai. The skyscraper you’re referring to is the Shanghai World Financial Center.”
Xu Lu nodded, muttering to himself:
"The design of this building is sinister. It's like two swords supporting the sun, with sharp edges on all sides gathering malevolent energy, as if the swords have severed the dragon vein of a river..."
"Mr. Xu, what are you saying?"
Tang Yu, who was driving in front, didn't hear clearly and asked curiously.
Xu Lu shook his head and said:
"It's nothing, Tang Yu. This building shouldn't have been built by us, the people of Great Xia, right?"
"Mr. Xu, you're right. It's really bad luck that the tallest building in Shanghai was built by people from Japan."
Actually, the tallest building used to be the Jin Mao Tower next door, which was slightly shorter, but unfortunately, it's no longer that.
Fortunately, Shanghai is starting construction on a new tallest building, hoping it will surpass the financial center in Japan…
Tang Yu, also sharing the indignation of the locals, began to explain.
"So this is architecture from Japan, the land of cherry blossoms. No wonder."
Upon hearing this, Xu Lu instantly understood.
He took another look at the Jin Mao Tower that Tang Yu had mentioned earlier and found that the feng shui of this former tallest building in Shanghai was also quite interesting.
The building is shaped like a pagoda, with sharp edges and corners on all sides, like a mace standing there.
It is estimated that the building was designed with the intention of having other buildings that would surpass it, so it was designed with a feng shui layout that was both offensive and defensive.
Unfortunately, the financial center built by Japan was much taller and more aggressive.
Not only is it highly destructive in terms of feng shui, resembling two swords supporting the sun, but it also attracts negative energy from the surrounding mountains and valleys.
This left the Jin Mao Tower, formerly the tallest building in Shanghai, with only defensive capabilities, barely able to protect itself...
"Isn't this feng shui arrangement much more interesting than that overpass?"
Xu Lu sighed inwardly and said:
"It's a pity that I probably can't get involved in this kind of thing, otherwise... well, maybe not."
Using the reflection in the car window to perform the art of observing the qi of heaven and earth, Xu Lu discovered that as soon as he had a thought, the qi around him suddenly changed.
Within that cloud of white mist, far denser than that of ordinary people, a faint purple aura was rising...
"Mr. Xu, we've arrived!"
Just as Xu Lu was still deep in thought, Tang Yu spoke up, reminding him:
"I'll take you upstairs first, and I'll come pick you up tomorrow morning."
Xu Lu looked up and saw that he was going to stay in a five-star hotel, which meant his treatment was quite good.
However, considering that they were able to get through to Mr. Yang and casually agree to a six-figure payment, a mere five-star hotel is naturally nothing.
"Okay! Thank you for your help!"
Xu Lu nodded.
Since it was getting late, Tang Yu tactfully took his leave after arriving at the room.
However, Xu Lu did not rest immediately.
He was still studying the faint purple aura within the white mist, trying to figure out what was going on.
However, before he could figure out the purple aura, he discovered a small black line that had suddenly appeared out of nowhere.
"It seems there might be more complications with the overpass project!"
Xu Lu stared at it for a long time, then suddenly muttered something to himself.
