Madmen don't keep diaries

Chapter 246 245 Good Luck Knocks on the Door
The woman had long, wavy golden-pink hair, which was tied up on one side and fell naturally on her shoulder on the other side, with a little hair left on her forehead.

She was wearing a loose shirt with a pair of sunglasses in her chest pocket. Her bottoms were half-tucked into her trousers, and she was wearing a knitted cardigan on the outside. She was wearing comfortable high-waisted wide-leg pants and flat-soled strappy sandals.

In addition, she also wore a wide-brimmed straw hat with a small flower pinned on the side of the hat; a wicker handbag hung on her wrist, like a vegetable basket, filled with various flowers and plants.

The whole person is lazy but also has a hint of bookish air.

No wonder the housekeeper didn't let her in, she was dressed so strangely.

If nothing else - this outfit is not suitable for winter at all.

Feng Xiuhu blocked the doorway and asked cautiously, "Who are you looking for?"

The woman who had just been looking towards the corridor had now set her eyes on the wedding lantern in Feng Xiuhu's arms.

Hearing Feng Xiuhu's question, the woman asked, "Is this Lu Hongxi's home?"

"Wrong go."

Feng Xiuhu turned around and was about to close the door.

The woman, who had been turned away once, hurriedly pressed the door panel - Feng Xiuhu found that she couldn't push it open.

He suddenly became more alert.

The woman gave him a friendly smile. "I'm talking about the Director of the Planning Department, Lu Hongxi."

Feng Xiuhu answered seriously: "I know, but you've got the wrong person."

The woman couldn't help but frown: "No way, my luck has always been good, I shouldn't be wrong."

Feng Xiuhu swallowed his saliva and became more sincere: "You may have really taken the wrong path."

He pointed enthusiastically in a certain direction outside the house: "There's a police station over there. You can go ask them."

"OK then."

The woman lowered her head in frustration. "Thank you for your reminder, sir."

"You're welcome." Feng Xiuhu smiled and nodded. "Don't worry, the police may not know either. Ask a few more people."

The woman turned and left. Feng Xiuhu closed the door and stood quietly for a few seconds.

A moment later, he rushed upstairs, grabbed her waist and said, "Hurry, hurry! We have to run away. Let's go back to the house in the lower city and hide for a while!"

After saying that, he didn't give Xi Yaoer time to ask questions and rushed into the master bedroom to pack his things.

After moving the suitcase and taking out the clothes, Feng Xiuhu stuffed everything into the suitcase, muttering to himself as he did so: "Lighter, cigarettes, pocket watch, keys, wallet, charger... What is a charger?"

After a moment of hesitation, he raised his head and looked outside the balcony.

This sight was not a big deal, as the souls that had flown away in panic were suddenly frightened and shrank back.

The woman sat on the balcony railing, swinging her legs boredly.

Feng Xiuhu smiled at her: "Did you take the wrong road again?"

The woman shook her head and pointed at the Happy Wedding Cup he had thrown on the bed. "I forgot to remind you, that thing is quite dangerous. Don't use it as an ordinary cup."

"Okay, I remember."

Feng Xiuhu nodded: "Be careful when you go down, don't sprain your ankle."

The woman laughed and said, "No, I'm lucky."

That's what she said, but she didn't seem to show any signs of leaving.

The two stared at each other.

They stared at each other for a moment, then the woman looked at the suitcase: "Are you going on a long trip?"

Feng Xiuhu remained calm and said, "I'm quite self-disciplined. I can't sleep without rearranging my clothes every day."

The woman tilted her head. "But it's late now."

Feng Xiuhu said, "Why don't you come in and help me clean up?"

The woman thought so too, so she jumped off the railing and walked into the house from the balcony.

Feng Xiuhu reached out to take the pocket watch, but the woman snatched it away first and stuffed it into the bottom of the suitcase.

Feng Xiuhu reached for the lighter again, and the woman put the lighter into her pocket.

Feng Xiuhu: “…”

Feng Xiuhu looked at her and said, "I usually keep these personal belongings close to me."

The woman asked back, "But aren't you going to sleep?" Feng Xiuhu was silent for two seconds: "I like to hold them while sleeping."

The woman nodded and said, "You are so shameless."

Feng Xiuhu looked a little embarrassed.

Just then the door opened.

Xi Yaoer rushed in: "Master, I have packed all my things. When are we leaving?"

When she looked up, she saw Feng Xiuhu and the strange woman.

Xiyao'er's expression froze: "Master, she is...?"

Feng Xiuhu told the truth: "She took the wrong road."

Xi Yaoer revealed a resentful look: "Which road could lead to the master's room by mistake...I want to know too."

The woman then asked him, "Where are you going? Aren't you going to sleep?"

Gu Zhili's crying next door was intermittent, and you could vaguely hear Narcissus and Lingzhi trying to comfort her.

Feng Xiuhu felt the veins on his forehead throbbing slightly.

He took a deep breath and exhaled slowly, calming himself down a little.

Then, Feng Xiuhu pointed outside the door and said to Xiyaoer, "Don't leave. Go back to sleep."

His tone was unquestionable. Xi Yaoer pursed her lips sadly, but still obediently left the room.

After the door was closed, Feng Xiuhu looked at the woman beside the bed again.

"Are you making fun of me?"

The woman looked confused: "What?"

You still don't admit it even after all this?

Feng Xiuhu's face darkened: "Why else would you come back?"

The woman said as a matter of course: "I have explained it. I am here to remind you."

Feng Xiuhu didn't believe it and sneered, "Then why don't you leave?"

The woman became more confident: "Didn't you ask me to come in and help?"

Well-reasoned and convincing - Feng Xiuhu had no way to refute it.

So Feng Xiuhu asked tentatively, "If I say I don't need your help anymore, will you be able to leave?"

The woman winked playfully. “It was okay before you said that, but not after you said it.”

"Why!"

Feng Xiuhu quit.

The woman patiently explained, "Because the cause and effect have changed."

"At first, my leaving and realizing I forgot to remind you was the cause, and coming to the balcony was the effect. Then, when I was about to leave, you asked me to help you, which was the cause, and my staying to help was the effect. And now, my staying has become the cause, and your urging me to leave has become the effect."

"Did you notice? 'Leaving' and 'Stay', two events that should have happened naturally, have had their cause and effect reversed due to human intervention. This is a fluctuation of good luck, further proving that I'm in the right place."

Feng Xiuhu was getting a headache from hearing this incomprehensible speech. He raised his hand to interrupt: "Are you saying that my driving you away is also part of your good fortune?"

The woman smiled and nodded: "That's right."

Feng Xiuhu asked in return, "What if I hadn't chased you away just now?"

The woman shook her head. "That question is meaningless. You can't change your fate, nor can you undo an action you've already taken."

Feng Xiuhu looked at the woman in front of him.

This was the most ordinary-looking god he had ever seen.

He pursed his lips and whispered tentatively: "So, you are...Lebit Winna?"

The God of Good Luck smiled and nodded, then extended his palm to Feng Xiuhu.

"Nice to meet you, Mr. Lu Hongxi."

PS: Why is it so hard for the God of Luck to find someone? Because this is Sails City.
