The next morning, the sunlight fell gently on the earth like a golden veil.

Lu Rou stretched, having used up a lot of her spiritual energy drawing talismans yesterday.

With no return date set, the shortcut is effectively gone.

She opened WeChat and clicked on the chat box with the moon profile picture; the message was still "Goodnight."

It was morning for her, but it was already the middle of the night for him.

[Pomelo Tea: Sweet Dreams~]

After tidying herself up, Lu Rou went to a teahouse with Shen Ze for morning tea.

The greeter outside the door said warmly, "Welcome, please come in."

Stepping into the teahouse, they were instantly enveloped by the elegant ambiance and the aroma of tea.

Lu Rou wore a light blue, relaxed-style suit, the hem of which swayed gently in the breeze.

She found a seat by the window, gently opened the menu, her fair fingers tracing the dishes before ticking them with a pen.

What would you like to eat?

"Sister Lu, I'm fine with anything."

Lu Rou ticked a few more boxes and said to the waiter, "That's all."

The waiter responded with a smile, "Okay, ma'am, please wait a moment."

A short while later, a waiter came over with a tray and gently placed the delicate tea snacks on the table one by one.

Looking at the delicious food in front of her, Lu Rou took a picture and sent it out. The corners of her mouth turned up slightly, revealing a faint smile.

Fukasawa looked at the small, exquisite, and adorable pastries, his eyes and brows full of smiles.

"Wow, Sister Lu, I'm in for a treat again!"

Lu Rou gently picked up the teacup, first smelled the aroma of the tea, then slowly took a sip, feeling completely refreshed.

Eat as much as you want, and order more if you're still hungry.

Fukasawa clapped his hands: "I'm going to start eating." As soon as he finished speaking, he eagerly picked up a crystal bag.

Before we knew it, the tea and snacks on the plate were getting less and less.

Lu Rou put down her chopsticks and asked Shen Ze, "What else would you like to eat?"

Fukasawa patted his round little belly and said contentedly, "I'm full, I can't eat anymore."

After Lu Rou paid the bill, Shen Ze went home with her in a pleasant mood.

As I approached my house, I noticed a man standing there quietly.

Upon recognizing the person, Shenze said, "Sister Lu, it's him who has come to see you time and time again."

Upon seeing Lu Rou, Luo Chuan quickly stepped forward and introduced himself: "Hello, Miss Lu, I am Luo Chuan, the captain of the Special Bureau. May I have a chat?"

Lu Rou gestured for Shen Ze to open the door and then slowly said, "Liu Bei visited Zhuge Liang three times to persuade him to come out of seclusion. Captain Luo has looked around for him. Come in."

Shenze poured a glass of water and placed it next to Luochuan before returning to his room.

Luo Chuan looked serious and got straight to the point: "Miss Lu, you must know why I'm here. Our Special Bureau greatly admires your abilities and has come here specifically to sincerely invite you to join us."

This world reveres science, and with spiritual energy dwindling, the esoteric arts have declined.

She's rather lazy.

He does have some spiritual talent; he'd be a good candidate to set things right in the future.

Lu Rou looked directly into Luo Chuan's bright eyes and said calmly, "Team Leader Luo, joining you isn't out of the question, but I have one small condition."

Luo Chuan nodded, signaling her to continue.

Lu Rou gently raised her chin, her tone resolute: "I need absolute freedom because I have never liked being constrained in any way."

Upon hearing this, Luo Chuan pondered for a moment before readily replying.

"No problem. As long as you are willing to join the Special Affairs Bureau, we will fully respect your personal wishes and needs. On behalf of all members of the Special Affairs Bureau, I warmly welcome you to join us!"

After saying this, Luo Chuan smiled and shook hands with Lu Rou.

Not long after Luo Chuan left, a crisp doorbell rang.

Lu Rou turned the doorknob, and the door was slowly pushed open.

Standing outside the door was a young man wearing a courier company uniform and a safety helmet.

He smiled and politely asked, "Hello, are you Ms. Lu? There is a package for you that needs to be signed for."

Lu Rou nodded slightly: "It's me."

She reached out and took the pen and form from the deliveryman, quickly signing her name.

After signing for the package, Lu Rou opened it and saw a strand of hair inside.

It suddenly became clear.

She picked up the brush with her slender hand, dipped it in cinnabar, and with a few strokes, a talisman for breaking the curse appeared on the paper.

Then, he wrapped the strand of hair with a talisman.

Lu Rou changed her hand gestures and made a hand seal.

"The six stars of the Southern Dipper shine brightly; Heavenly Generals and Earthly Fiends, heed my command! Converge your spiritual light, vanquish evil and establish righteousness! So be it! Destroy the wicked and treacherous!"

Instantly, the scroll spontaneously combusted, emitting a red light.

A few seconds later, the scroll turned into a pile of ashes and disappeared into the air.

Meanwhile, Yang Yi, who was in the conference room, felt a surge of exhilaration for no apparent reason.

I feel so much more relaxed.

Zhu Li was giving her report smoothly when, at the crucial moment, she got stuck.

A flicker of panic crossed her eyes, and her lips trembled slightly as she tried to retrieve the subsequent events from the depths of her memory.

No matter how hard she tried to search and recall, all that remained was a disheartening blank.

"Zhu Li, what's wrong with you? You don't even know the contents of the plan you made!"

The minister at the meeting frowned, his dissatisfaction evident.

Zhu Li bit her lip and didn't speak, only feeling a force being pulled out of her body, and her mind became muddled again.

Seeing her panicked appearance, Yang Yi knew that her luck had returned.

Suppressing her joy, she stood up and spoke.

"Minister, let me do it."

Zhu Li stared intently at Yang Yi, watching her answer fluently, her heart filled with jealousy and hatred.

Could it be that she has already discovered my use of her luck?

No, not possible!

She was so careful, how could she possibly have been discovered?

She doesn't want to revert to her former incompetent self; she wants to replace Yang Yi.

The minister was puzzled when he saw Zhu Li's face contorted in a grimace, her eyes filled with hatred.

Her emotions are so unstable; it seems we need to reconsider whether to let her participate in the project.

Zhu Li clenched her fists and suddenly felt a warm stream flowing from the tip of her nose.

She has a nosebleed!

Zhu Li hurriedly took out tissues to wipe it, but the more she wiped, the more it flowed, and she couldn't stop it at all.

Subsequently, she became increasingly exhausted and weak, and an indescribable dull pain spread throughout her body.

Deep in his throat, a warm, fishy-smelling liquid surged uncontrollably upwards.

A colleague exclaimed, "Minister, Zhu Li... she's vomiting blood!"

The minister was horrified when he saw Zhu Li's blood-covered face: "Call her right now!"

My colleague quickly took out his phone and dialed 120.

Everyone immediately panicked.

Yang Yi silently organized his documents, feeling a surge of satisfaction at having successfully avenged himself.

It must have been Sister Lu who broke Zhu Li's spell, which is why she suffered the backlash.

Those who harm others will ultimately harm themselves.

She wants to thank Sister Lu properly when the show airs.

After Zhu Li was sent to the hospital, the minister called Yang Yi to his office.

"Xiao Yang, you'll be taking over the proposal that Zhu Li has."

Yang Yi was inwardly celebrating: "Yes, Minister, I will definitely do my job well."
