Chapter 88 Giving Up the Most Precious Thing
Lu Qiu waited for two days. On the third day, he finally couldn't help but called Xia Wange, but found that the call could not be connected.
Looking at the calendar, it was already the end of the month. Thinking of their agreement for a one-month trial period, Lu Qiu felt a little anxious. Could it be that Xia Wange would just leave without saying goodbye just because of what happened that night?
With complicated thoughts flowing through his mind, he quickly turned on the office surveillance and took a look. He found that the large pieces of jade were still in the office, and he felt relieved.
These are Xia Wange's treasures, there is no way she would not want them.
So as soon as he got to work, when he saw Cao Niannian coming to the company, he asked her what Xia Wange was doing.
Although Cao Niannian was confused, Master Xia did tell her before he left that if anyone looked for her, she should say she was on a business trip.
"Are you on a business trip?" Lu Qiu frowned and stared at Cao Niannian for a long time, and finally became a little disappointed.
He sneered, muttered under his breath, "Another business trip," and left.
In short, the entire general office floor has been in a state of low pressure since Xia Wange went on a business trip, and Lu Qiu's inspections have become more and more strict. Before, if there was a small mistake in the work, Lu Qiu would not criticize too harshly if Xia Wange was present. But now it is different. Without Xia Wange in the president's office, you will be criticized as soon as you enter.
After a whole day of hard work, we finally had the weekend off. Everyone was thinking about relaxing on Sunday, the Chinese Valentine's Day.
Lu Qiu's low mood continued all the way to his home, causing Lu's father and mother to feel that the atmosphere was not right when they wanted to show their affection at home. As a result, the two middle-aged and elderly married couples who had obtained their marriage certificate only dared to celebrate secretly, as if they were having an affair.
It wasn’t because of what Lu Qiu said or did that the atmosphere at home was wrong, but it was because the other party said nothing and did nothing that people felt something was wrong.
Although Lu Qiu remained as taciturn as before, he would still chat with us or talk about company matters.
But it was different now. No matter what they did, he would stare at the two strings of bracelets on his hands, one white and one green, in a daze. He would stare for a long time. Sometimes when they asked him questions, he would suddenly come to his senses and ask them what they wanted. After they finished speaking, he would start staring at the bracelets in a daze again.
This situation reached its peak when the Lu family was watching the Chinese Valentine's Day Gala together. Father and Mother Lu finally couldn't stand it anymore and went back to their rooms.
Of course, before returning to the room, they also brought Brother Lu, who was also a single man, into the room.
Mother Lu: "How is your brother? He was cheerful a few days ago, what happened these days?"
Father Lu: "What's going on?"
Brother Lu scratched his head, "He asked me yesterday, if a woman is particularly angry, will she just leave without the most precious thing she has?"
Mother Lu: "Woman?"
Father Lu: "Precious things? How did you answer?"
Brother Lu said, "I would answer yes. When a woman is particularly angry, of course she will leave. Isn't that what you did when I was a kid? When you were angry, you just left me and my brother at home to be taken care of by Dad, and then you went out to have fun?"
Mother Lu, who was about to scold Brother Lu, felt a little guilty, but couldn't help but said, "This is all your fault! Your brother obviously wanted a negative answer, but you made it worse! Alas!"
After saying that, she went to the inner room.
Father Lu didn't have many reservations and said bluntly: "Why are you talking nonsense all day long?! What do you think is your mother's most precious thing? Your mother's most precious thing is obviously me! With your ability to understand, in the future, if your brother asks you anything, you should first communicate it in our small group! Don't give random answers anymore!"
After saying that, Father Lu also went back.
Brother Lu was left with a look of having eaten shit.
The moon on Chinese Valentine's Day was not very bright, but the weather was good and many stars could be seen. Lu Qiu looked at the stars in the sky, decisively pulled the curtains, and went to bed early.
There were many things he couldn't understand. In his opinion, he should have been angry about their conflict that day, but it was she who left without saying goodbye.
Intellectually he knew that the other party could not just disappear, but the fact was a heavy blow to him. There had been no news for four days, his phone was unreachable, and he did not reply to messages. It was as if Xia Wange's appearance was an illusion. After leaving behind a pile of jade, she left.
As the night deepened, Lu Qiu vaguely heard someone knocking on his window.
“Boom boom boom.”
“Boom boom boom.”
Lu Qiu suddenly opened his eyes and looked towards the source of the sound. His heart instantly began to tighten and beat faster.
His room is on the third floor.
The knocking on the window seemed to be getting impatient, becoming louder and louder, and more frequent.
“Boom boom boom!”
“Boom boom boom boom!”
I could still vaguely hear his name.
"Lu Qiu~"
"Lu Qiu~"
In the middle of the night, on the third floor, someone knocked on the window and called his name.
Lu Qiu went over all the urban legends in his mind, and became more and more nervous.
He wanted to just ignore it, but the sound of knocking on the window gradually became louder and louder and became harder to ignore. He suddenly remembered what Xia Wange had said to him.
He is blessed with the purple aura and is invaluable. No evil spirit can harm him.
So Lu Qiu got out of bed, sat in his wheelchair to the window, took a deep breath and pulled open the curtains. When he saw the scene outside the window, Lu Qiu's heart completely rose to his throat, and all sounds were blocked there and could not be uttered.
Outside the window, a woman with a pale face pressed her face tightly against the glass. Her nose was squeezed and deformed because it was pressed too tightly. She stared at him with round eyes. The air she exhaled made the glass damp, making her face look even more weird. Her fingers were still tapping on the glass.
“Boom, boom, boom…”
Lu Qiu closed his eyes, let out a long breath, and relaxed for a moment. Then he opened the window with a look of disgust.
Sometimes he admired himself for being able to tell that this was Xia Wange from such an ugly face.
He has a lot of dirty words in his mind and doesn't know whether he should say them or not.
However, before he could open his mouth, Xia Wange rolled forward from the window and said quickly, "Boss, help me block the evil spirit."
After saying that, she stuffed a piece of talisman paper into Lu Qiu's hand, and Xia Wange slid onto the bed and wrapped herself in the quilt that was stained with Lu Qiu's scent.
Everything happened in a flash. When Lu Qiu's eyes just touched the talisman paper in his hand, he looked up suddenly and felt a gust of wind blowing in from the window and hitting him directly.
Why did he use the word "group"? Because he vaguely felt and saw a group of wind with black smoke, which completely enveloped him, but soon disappeared.
He felt that he should have helped her block it. The most obvious thing was that his leg, which had been vaguely painful, instantly felt much better. He touched the flesh above his knee and found that there was a large area of sensation.
Now he had feeling in his legs from the knees up.
As the talisman paper in his hand spontaneously combusted and disappeared, Lu Qiu turned to look at Xia Wange, and the other person poked his head out from under the quilt.
She smiled and said, "Oh, Boss, you are amazing. You can easily dispel such a strong evil spirit. How is it? Is the effect good? It is worth it that I crossed the plateau from Nigeria, boarded the plane at the last minute, and went through so much trouble to bring it to you."
