Chapter 59: They Will Feel It

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

After kowtowing three times, Lu Haiqiao helped Wu Sancai up.

At this moment, footsteps came from behind.

Lu Haiqiao turned around and saw the abbot of the temple.

She turned slightly and whispered a few words into Wu Sancai’s ear. The latter pondered for a few seconds and said, “If they don’t accept it, don’t force it.” Lu Haiqiao nodded. She let go of Wu Sancai’s arm and walked forward.

She looked at the abbot quietly, put her hands together, and leaned forward slightly. Then, she took out a check and handed it over.

“Master, this is a small token of my appreciation. Please accept it…” Lu Haiqiao paused for two seconds.” Take it as Mr. and Mrs. Bails…”

The abbot didn’t even look at the check. “Miss Lu, the dead are gone.”

Hearing this, Lu Haiqiao lowered her eyes. “I just want to do my best…”

This way, she would feel better.

The old abbot had a benevolent expression. “It’s all about sincerity. As long as the heart is there, they’ll be able to sense your intentions.”

The abbot had rejected her check several times already.

“But…” Lu Haiqiao’s hand that was holding the check froze in the air. It was obvious that she didn’t want to take it back, but the abbot would definitely not accept it.

Dazzling sunlight poured into the hall through the clouds after the rain. The abbot stood with his back to the light. A hazy circle of light enveloped him, blurring his kind features.

“Miss Lu, the last time you came, I gave you the word ‘caught’. This time, I want to change it to ‘trapped’.”

Lu Haiqiao’s expression froze. She didn’t expect the abbot to say such a thing.

While she was in a daze, the abbot walked around her and walked toward Wu Sancai.

It was unknown what they said in a low voice, but about three minutes later,

Wu Sancai walked forward with his walking stick and gently patted Lu

Haiqiao’s shoulder.

“Kiddo, let’s go.”

Lu Haiqiao turned her head and looked confused. “Sir…” Wu Sancai shook his head. “Let’s go. You’ll be late for work.”

After completing a press release, Lu Haiqiao stopped typing and picked up the glass of water on her left to take a sip.

At this moment, she noticed a string of prayer beads hanging on her left wrist.

108 brown-yellow dragon-eye bodhi were neatly arranged. The triangular squint on each grain symbolized wealth, auspiciousness, safety, and health.

This was given to her by Wu Sancai after he left the temple in the morning.

“Haiqiao, the abbot asked me to give you this string of beads. This is the Dragon Eye Bodhi. It has the effect of exorcizing evil and increasing intelligence. Wear it and bless you with peace and prosperity.”

Peace and prosperity…

Turning misfortune into fortune…

The sound of glass shattering brought Lu Haiqiao back to reality.

She was so shocked that she couldn’t help but tremble.

She heard Fang Chuoqi’s chattering and scolding. “What’s wrong with you? You can’t even hold a cup properly. You’re so clumsy!”

Looking over, she saw the new assistant kept apologizing.

Fang Chuoqi ordered arrogantly, “Hurry up and get the cleaning lady to clean up the fragments.”

Fragments…

“After all, I’m not a good person. It’s not surprising that those bows and arrows are coming for me.”

These were the words that Xie Xuan had said in a nonchalant manner last night.

Perhaps he needed peace and auspiciousness more…

In the office, the assistant was helping the cleaning lady clean up the glass shards.

Chaotic footsteps approached the entrance of the magazine agency. A few police officers in police uniforms walked in through the clear automatic glass door..
