Collapse Mod, all characters are NPCs!

"N-No... Not anymore!"

After a little thought, she decided to use divination.

Otherwise, she would never understand what happened to Qingque, and she would feel uneasy, and even her work would be affected.

Therefore, she even used the Dayan Qiongguan Formation.

Of course, this cannot be considered as misusing public resources for personal gain, not to mention that she was using it for her subordinates.

If Qingque's situation is related to the invasion of external forces, then her actions are to take precautions before it happens.

only--

"This, this, this, this..."

Faced with the result given by the Qiongguan Array, her cute face turned red as if blood was about to drip out.

Because she was clearly fortune-telling for Qingque, but the final result pointed to her marriage.

"Is this master going to meet his soulmate?"

She opened her beautiful golden eyes wide, totally unable to believe the result, and could only start divination again.

However, once, twice, three times... until the ninth time, the result did not change at all, so much so that she suspected that the Qiongguan Formation was broken.

But putting aside the fact that the Qiongguan Formation has always been maintained by a dedicated person, based on her understanding of the Qiongguan Formation, she was able to divine nine times without any deviation, which proved the reliability of the results.

"Is my marriage related to Qingque?"

After figuring it out, she looked around and decided to go find Qingque to test it again.

She was decisive and did not hesitate. Taking advantage of the fact that there were still a few minutes before the end of get off work, she rushed to Qingque's department.

According to her estimation, she could just block Qingque who was about to get off work.

then--

"T-Lord Taibu..."

Qingque looked unhappy, as if he had seen the god of plague.

But soon, as if she had figured something out, she smiled again and asked bluntly, "Any instructions?"

"I'll do it right now."

It can be said that she kept a very low profile.

But it's also true that she "tortured" Fu Xuan a lot in her dreams, so in the outside world, she also had some compensatory psychology towards Fu Xuan.

Even though she didn't want to work overtime anymore, she felt relieved when she thought that by returning to her dream, she would be able to raise the pink and purple rope to Fu Xuan more calmly.

"Do not."

Shaking his head, Fu Xuan said, "I don't have any new work arrangements for you today."

"Ok?"

Hearing Fu Xuan say this, Qingque couldn't help but show a look of surprise.

But she wasn't thinking about Fu Xuan's change of character, but rather——

You don't have a job, why are you blocking me?

You deserve a beating, right?

When you go back online, I'll give you a hundred consecutive draws!

"You don't need to be surprised."

Fu Xuan naturally couldn't guess Qingque's thoughts. After seeing the other party's astonishment, he thought that the other party was happy about it.

"I, I...thank you, Master Taibu."

Hearing Fu Xuan say this, Qingque was so angry that her teeth were about to break, but she still put on a smile.

"So, what does Master Taibu want from me?"

"I came here this time to treat you to a meal."

Folding his arms across his chest, Fu Xuan said with a caring look, "This Lord has assigned you quite a lot of work lately. I was inconsiderate."

"Ok?"

At this moment, Qingque was completely frightened, and the resentment in his heart disappeared instantly, replaced by a look of vigilance.

"who are you?"

"Uh......"

Seeing that Qingque was truly on guard against him, and even showed signs of calling out to the Cloud Cavalry, Fu Xuan quickly said, "Of course it's me!"

"Anyway...your task tonight is to accompany me for dinner."

Helplessly, she could only assign it to Qingque as a new task.

"Well, that's right."

After hearing what Fu Xuan said, Qingque finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"Greenbird..."

The corner of his mouth twitched slightly, and Fu Xuan asked with a strange look in his eyes, "Is this the kind of person I am in your mind?"

"Otherwise...I, I mean no."

After saying it instinctively, Qingque immediately reacted and shook his head.

"That's all."

Seeing this, Fu Xuan said in a tired tone: "Let's go eat first."

Then, she brought Qingque to Jinren Lane and found a corner of a restaurant to sit down.

It was just after get off work, and there were customers coming to eat everywhere, so naturally some people noticed them.

However, after meeting Fu Xuan's sharp gaze, these people all looked away at the same time, not daring to look here even once.

Invisibly, there seemed to be some kind of force field surrounding their table. No one dared to enter except the restaurant's proprietress.

"Master Taibu, is there something wrong?"

Looking at this horrifying scene, Qingque hurriedly wanted to end the dinner as soon as possible.

"If nothing happens, can't I care about my subordinates?"

Seeing Qingque's appearance, Fu Xuan couldn't help feeling a little tired, but he also took the lead in picking up his chopsticks.

Only after seeing her move did Qingque dare to move.

"Uh...of course not."

After saying this, Qingque couldn't help but feel a little pang of conscience. After all, this was undoubtedly a lie.

But she was an adult after all, so she quickly straightened her posture and said to Fu Xuan, "I just feel that Master Taibu is so busy that he shouldn't waste his time on me."

"You don't mean what you say."

Seeing Qingque's words being so slick, Fu Xuan shook his head helplessly and said, "Qingque, you have great potential. It's not impossible for you to become the new Grand Astrologer in the future."

"Thank you, Master Taibu, for your consideration."

Faced with the cake painted by Fu Xuan, Qingque naturally would not eat it at all.

Not to mention, she has a natural aversion to responsibility.

therefore--

"But my current career plan doesn't have such a long-term perspective. I'm still prepared to take steady steps and lay a solid foundation first."

"..."

Looking at Qingque in silence, Fu Xuan simply skipped such a boring topic.

After all, if it were anything else, she would have come straight to the point.

But since it was related to her own marriage, she wanted to lay some groundwork.

But if they continued talking now, the two of them might end the dinner in boredom, so—

"That bluebird..."

"Ok?"

"Do you have brothers...sisters?"

Although he wanted to ask his brother directly, Fu Xuan also knew that Qingque was not stupid, so he quickly added the word "sister" at the end.

"how?"

With a look of surprise, Qingque said, "Master Taibu, it should be written on my resume that I am an only child."

"And what about relatives?"

Seeing that Qingque did not have a new brother, Fu Xuan continued to ask.

"Of course they do, but I haven't been in contact with them for a long time."

Faced with Fu Xuan's questions, Qingque naturally answered honestly, but she couldn't understand why Fu Xuan asked these questions.

"No contact?"

——Then it has nothing to do with Qingque’s relatives…

Thinking of this, Fu Xuan quickly brought out the excuse he had prepared from the beginning.

"I was thinking that you went home as soon as you got off work recently, and I thought you had brothers or sisters to take care of, or that relatives came to your house."

"Is that so?"

Hearing Fu Xuan's words, Qingque finally relaxed and said, "I'm sorry to have troubled you, Master Taibu. I'm just too tired from work and I'm anxious to go home and sleep."

If Fu Xuan wanted to investigate the fact that she went home to sleep, he could find out immediately, so she didn't want to hide it and told it honestly.

And if she said that, she might even be able to play the victim.

really--

"Ah this..."

Hearing that Qingque went to bed as soon as he got home, Fu Xuan, who already felt guilty towards Qingque, felt even more depressed.

"It's my fault. I'll drink a glass of wine as punishment."

Then she drank the sake in the cup in one gulp.

"..."

Qingque watched Fu Xuan's performance in silence, but did not wait for the workload to decrease.

——Forget it, forget it. If I can earn enough to make a living, why wouldn’t I be dissatisfied?

But she was an optimist after all, so she soon felt relieved.

After that, the two chatted from time to time, but there was no substantive communication.

finally--

"No relatives...and no new friends?"

Looking at Qingque's departing back, Fu Xuan became even more confused.

But in order to have dinner with Qingque, she left some not-so-important work unfinished.

Therefore, she did not stay in Jinren Lane for long and soon returned to Taibu Si.

only--

"I haven't drunk in a long time, but I've regressed."

As she sat down, she couldn't help feeling a little dizzy.

But she still forced herself to continue working.

But after a while, she couldn't hold her liquor anymore and slowly fell down.

And on the other side——

"Humph!"
