Lu Qingyan said dismissively, "What's so strange about that? People can look different, and so can cats. It would be strange if they all looked exactly the same."
Xi Bo laughed and said, "Other cats aren't like yours; they can save their owners."
Lu Qingyan's heart skipped a beat, wondering if he had discovered some problem with the system. But then Xi Bo continued, "It seems that your cat is also practicing Taoist arts, which is why it was able to conjure that sword and help you cut off the vines that were trying to bind you."
Lu Qingyan patted the somewhat agitated Su Han in her hand to calm it down.
Xi Bo continued, "That's why I said your cat is really interesting."
Lu Qingyan laughed and said, "Really? I didn't expect our cat to be so amazing. I'll give it an extra treat later to thank it properly."
Xi Bo looked at Lu Qingyan and asked, "Why didn't you believe what I just said, but you believed me as soon as I mentioned Miaomiao?"
Based on what just happened, Lu Qingyan could easily conclude that dreams and reality are different. She didn't even meet Miaomiao in her dream, so what could Miaomiao do for her?
But Lu Qingyan insisted on rewarding Miaomiao, so it seems she believed her.
Uh, could it be that her acting gave her away? Lu Qingyan thought to herself, lowering her head: "I know, I know what you said might be true. But I don't want to believe it, I can't believe it. The world I've lived in before has never seemed so dangerous, but after hearing what you said, I'm a little scared."
"Afraid—afraid of what?"
"I can't imagine who would use such a method against me. I don't think I've ever offended anyone, so why would they do this? I escaped this time, but what about next time? What will I do next time?" Lu Qingyan lowered her head, looking extremely disappointed. Xi Bo couldn't understand why Lu Qingyan would encounter such a situation.
The one who steals luck is the one who has great fortune. Looking at Lu Qingyan's face, he couldn't tell how much luck she had. Instead, she was no different from an ordinary person, perhaps a little better than ordinary people, but still not reaching that level.
Furthermore, it's also possible that there's some deep-seated grudge between them, leading them to use such methods to make Lu Qingyan's future life even more difficult.
He had only known Lu Qingyan for half a day, yet he knew she wasn't a bad person, that she was quiet and wouldn't offend anyone. Why would anyone treat her like this?
"Xiao Xin'er, I will protect you." Xi Bo looked at Lu Qingyan and suddenly said these words.
Lu Qingyan looked up at him and asked, "Why did you do this? Why did you protect me?"
Xi Bo's mind went blank for a moment. What should he say at this moment? Looking at those shining eyes, he suddenly said, "Because we are deskmates."
Lu Qingyan: "..."
I'd already set up the ladder for you, just waiting for you to climb down, and then, halfway down, you threw a huge rock at me!!! Is there anything worse than this in the world???
This answer really upset her!
Lu Qingyan, with her sharp eyes, noticed Xi Bo nervously curling his fingers, and immediately felt much better. It seemed he wasn't completely oblivious after all; honestly, he'd scared her to death.
Lu Qingyan pressed her advantage: "So, you've been so nice to me since we're deskmates, what else are you planning to do to help me?"
Xi Bo thought for a moment and said, "If you are willing, I can teach you cultivation."
