"Because you are a child of destiny, blessed with abundant purple energy and immeasurable nobility! Even if your ideas have certain limitations, who knows when they might come into play in the future? In ancient times, you would be the emperor! The Son of Heaven! Even if you are nothing now, they would still listen to your ideas seriously."

After saying that, Xia Wange squatted down so that her eyes were level with Lu Qiu's. "You may not realize how amazing you are yet, but one day you will understand how much change a physique like yours, which is rare even once in a century, can make to the world."

Xia Wange's pupils shone like stars under the glow of the streetlights.

Lu Qiu lowered her eyes in a strange panic, and forced a smile. "But I'd rather be a normal person with a normal body."

"So God sent me to help you heal your leg," Xia Wange encouraged. "Lu Qiu, your leg will get better. With me here, it will definitely get better."

"Go see ghosts with you?"

"You're dreaming," Xia Wange laughed. "There are so few ghosts in this world that even ordinary people rarely encounter one, let alone someone with your constitution. You're just some souls that haven't had a chance to leave yet. They can only wander in certain places. Some dissipate, some are taken down, and some encounter their own opportunities to go elsewhere."

Lu Qiu pursed her lips, a hint of impatience in her eyes. "Then, could we follow today's example and go directly to the missing child's parents to help them find their families?"

"Lu Qiu." Xia Wange looked into his eyes and said, word by word, "Everything has its own destiny. We cannot arbitrarily interfere in other people's karma. We can only wait, we can only try, we can only go with the flow."

Letting out a long sigh, Lu Qiu closed his eyes; he had been too hasty.

Perhaps it was the bizarre events that happened tonight that completely shattered his composure and gave his previously desolate heart a renewed sense of hope.

He's like a drowning man grabbing a branch, desperately trying to get back to shore. He's too eager to change his situation and get back on his feet.

Suddenly, a cool touch appeared on his wrist. Xia Wange put the white jade bead string back on his wrist and casually took a small jade ring from his finger.

Lu Qiu stared blankly at the two bracelets, one green and one white, her eyelashes trembling slightly.

Just now, when she was changing her things, he heard her thoughts.

Just wait patiently, and I guarantee your future will be filled with beautiful scenery and blooming flowers.

With a self-deprecating laugh, Lu Qiu's mindset returned to normal. He thought he had seen it all, but he never expected that in just one night, he would be reduced to needing someone younger than him to comfort him.

The two continued walking slowly out of the hospital. Under the bright moonlight, Lu Qiu suddenly remembered something. He took out the small wooden plaque that Xia Wange had given him earlier. "Here, take this back."

Xia Wange looked at the wooden sign and paused for a moment, then smiled and said, "Take it, and use it the way I told you."

Lu Qiu suppressed the slight upturn of his lips, lightly rubbing the wooden plaque in his hand, but said, "Keep it? That's not a good idea, after all, there's still a trace of your soul inside..."

"What's wrong? Don't be shy." After saying that, Xia Wange took out a bunch of wooden plaques from her bag. The sandalwood plaques jingled and clanged in the moonlight. "If you want more, there are plenty. This kind of spirit is easy to identify, and it will recover after a little care."

"Alright, one is enough." Lu Qiu maneuvered the wheelchair out expressionlessly. "It's already 3:30, even the dogs should be resting."

Xia Wange chased after her, saying, "You don't need to return the sign to me. Where's the money I gave you? Give me the money back. It's not easy to have a banknote these days, and the serial number on that banknote was all 6s."

Lu Qiu stopped by the car. "You're taking back my hard-earned money too? Xia Wange, I didn't expect you to be so stingy."

"Transfer, I'll transfer it to you, ten times the amount." Xia Wange opened the car door and said awkwardly, "The main thing is that the money I gave you was already deducted from the talisman, and I'm too lazy to do it again."

"No bank transfers. If you want to hire me in the future, pay up, cash." Lu Qiu got into the car, closed his eyes to rest, and said, "Back to the hotel, it's closer."

Xia Wange thought of the penthouse suite again, and suddenly she didn't feel bad about spending the money anymore. The hotel was more expensive for one night than the monthly rent for her small shop. Although she could afford it, the things she got from the Chosen One were different.

Poke at the monitor screen, Xia Wange muttered to herself, "Didn't they say there's a bridge over here that's already open? It's clearly closer, so why isn't the navigation pointing to the bridge? Is the algorithm making me take a detour in the middle of the night? It seems like it's actually closer to where I am..."

Thinking of the place she rented, Xia Wange's hand suddenly stopped. She turned to look at Lu Qiu, her eyes burning.

Noticing the other person's gaze, Lu Qiu moved his eyes to meet hers. Although they had only known each other for a few days, after two days and half a night of this ordeal, he already knew it was definitely not a good thing.

After a moment, he sighed deeply. "Speak."

"Go to my place first," Xia Wange said. "If I take you to the hotel and then go back, it will be dawn, and that won't look good."

Lu Qiu raised an eyebrow slightly.

Xia Wange stated frankly, "I've attracted some troublemakers, which have trapped some people. Now I need to deal with them."

"..." Lu Qiu, "Didn't you just say..."

"It's rare for ordinary people to have such luck, and most people aren't that unlucky. It's even rarer for you because you've always been very lucky." Xia Wange started the car, turned around and smiled, "But you can't use luck to predict my profession."

"So, some of what you said before was just to comfort me?"

"Some of the ghost stories were just to comfort you," Xia Wange said. "Didn't you seem a little scared and quieter?"

Lu Qiu's expression stiffened slightly, and his eyes unconsciously looked out the window. In the reflection of the windowpane, he could clearly see the awkwardness on his face. After a moment, he muttered, "I've never been a talkative person."

After saying that, he recalled the number of times he had communicated with Xia Wange recently and felt that he was trying to cover up something. He sighed in annoyance and simply closed his eyes.

Suddenly remembering that she had asked Cao Hua some questions about Lu Qiu's car, Xia Wange was about to speak when she saw Lu Qiu looking tired with his eyes closed in the rearview mirror, and she immediately swallowed her words.

I felt a little embarrassed.

Although she was a chosen one, her body was still that of an ordinary person, and her legs were not very strong. She had dragged her along for half the night... At this point, Xia Wange quickly made some calculations in the air with her fingers.

Well, it looks like we'll be running around all night with each other.

Xia Wange played some soothing music and tried her best to drive smoothly.

hospital.

After seeing Lu Qiu leave, Ox-Head and Horse-Face exchanged a glance.

Bull Head: "That woman looked familiar."

Horse-faced: "Isn't that the kind of undead sorcerer who cleared out all the way here and comes by every now and then to deliver messages to the souls that haven't been reincarnated?"
