At this time, Su Meiren did not know that although there are countless kinds of fate in this world, some are good fortune, while others are misfortune.
Lu Qingyan's performance in class was not outstanding, but whenever a task was assigned to her, she could handle it almost perfectly.
Since meeting that strange Taoist priest, Xi Bo has resumed his days of dedicated cultivation. Furthermore, given his disciplined nature at school—never skipping classes—he has spent even less time with Lu Qingyan.
Even though they're in the same school, they talk on the phone more often than they meet in person.
Su Meiren never had the chance to meet the boyfriend that Lu Qingyan mentioned.
Therefore, she repeatedly emphasized: "Don't tell me anything. Tell me about him when we meet, so I can guess and imagine. Otherwise, if you tell me, I'll hear his name from someone else and then not see him, which is really disappointing."
Not seeing each other for a day or two wasn't a big deal, but after a while, Lu Qingyan started to complain. She held up her phone and complained to Xi Bo on the other end: "Xi Bo, what have you been busy with lately? You haven't even had time to see me. I know you're no ordinary person, but you should at least tell me what you've been up to!"
Xi Bo knew he shouldn't keep it from Lu Qingyan, especially since so much time had passed and he still hadn't found a trace of that person.
When Lu Qingyan asked him, he said, "Do you still remember that strange Taoist priest we met on Phoenix Mountain?"
"I remember! Although I didn't see him at the time, you told me about it later, so I remember it. What's wrong? Did you run into him again?" Lu Qingyan was a little nervous. In a one-on-one fight, that strange Taoist priest was indeed no match for Xi Bo. He must have some skill to have escaped from Xi Bo's clutches.
If he secretly resorts to some underhanded tricks, even Xi Bo might not be able to handle it.
"Don't worry," Xi Bo comforted her. "I'm capable of protecting myself. I'm just a little worried that you might run into some trouble."
"Then you should try your best to protect yourself, and then protect me." Lu Qingyan smiled and said, "If something happens to you, you won't be able to protect me."
"I know."
“Xin’er, listen to me. That strange Taoist priest appeared the very first night of school, and we fought again. But this time, I still managed to let him escape.” Xi Bo hesitated for a moment before revealing his guess: “I remember someone entered your dream to try and steal your luck, but he didn’t expect that the cat was protecting you, so he didn’t succeed. I don’t know why, but I always feel that the strange Taoist priest is the one who wanted to steal your luck.”
Lu Qingyan was stunned. What? She had always known that the person who wanted to steal her luck was Bai Tingyu, but she didn't expect Xi Bo to say it was this strange Taoist priest.
How could that be? She didn't even know him back then. The story only says that Bai Tingyu stole the original owner's fortune.
Wait... Could it be that Bai Tingyu and that strange Taoist priest have some kind of connection?
Lu Qingyan made a bold guess in her heart.
She asked Xi Bo, "Xi Bo, why do you say that the strange Taoist priest and the person who wanted to steal my luck are the same person?"
Xi Bo analyzed, "The two of them practice similar techniques, and I sensed the same aura."
