Chapter 181: Chapter 181: Saved a Life Chapter 181: Chapter 181: Saved a Life Lu Xu’s eyes lit up with a smile and a hint of pride.
“Of course, isn’t there a saying, ‘A family does not allow outsiders’?”
Yu Zihang: “…” Suddenly felt that his childhood friend had become arrogant—this proud tone was something he had never heard from him before.
He chuckled, “That’s true.”
He realized Luo Ning’s influence on his friends was no small matter.
“Old Lu, when there’s another public sale, you should take some time out to join me.”
He continued with a smile, “Let’s mine more jade and leave the Feng Family with none to work with.”
To cut off someone else’s path, you must stay ahead and leave them with nowhere to go.
Originally, Lu Xun was not very interested, but hearing this, he nodded, “Alright, as long as I have time, I’ll join you.”
Meanwhile, the director and organizers were in discussion.
Then he came over and asked the guests, “There’s another auction this afternoon, do you want to join for fun?”
Wei Yao asked, “An auction for rough stones?”
The director nodded, “Yes, mostly rough stones, and also some processed jades.”
Luo Ning said enthusiastically, “Since we’re here, let’s join the fun.”
The rough stones at the auction are usually of much better quality than those in the trading area.
Although she had already purchased two pieces of top-grade jade, it still wasn’t enough.
The director smiled and asked, “Teacher Luo, if you want to sell the jades you mine, we can also arrange for it with the organizers.”
Luo Ning politely declined with a smile, “I’ve only mined a few pieces, I’ll keep them for myself to enjoy.”
Wei Yao said with a laugh, “Little Ningning is more generous, if it were me, I definitely couldn’t resist selling them.”
“I have some other uses for them,” Luo Ning hinted, winking at him.
Seeing her , Wei Yao roughly guessed what she meant, his eyes brightening, “That sounds good.”
Others didn’t understand their tacit conversation, all feeling somewhat clueless and curious.
But, in front of the live cameras, everyone tactfully didn’t ask.
The director said with a smile, “Then, let’s go and have lunch first, and then rest in the lounge. The auction starts at three in the afternoon.”
The group went to a nearby restaurant for lunch, and after returning to the public trading area and entering the lounge, Luo Ning suddenly turned to Luo Zeyu.
It was break time, so the live broadcast was off.
Not needing to hide, Luo Ning gestured to Luo Zeyu, “Luo Zeyu, come over here.”
Luo Zeyu, who had been joking with some teammates, was taken aback for a moment before quickly walking over to the guest lounge.
“Teacher Luo, did you need something?” he asked with a smile.
Luo Ning asked back, “Luo Zeyu, do you have a brother from the same parents?”
Luo Zeyu was stunned, not sure why Luo Ning would ask this, but he nodded truthfully, “Yes, why?”
He didn’t only have a full sibling but also had two half-siblings.
“Call your brother right now and tell him to leave where he is immediately; otherwise, there could be a fatal incident.”
“Ah!” Luo Zeyu was startled, but he was quite the fan of Luo Ning.
So, without further questions, he immediately took out his phone and made the call.
Soon, the phone was answered, “Why are you calling at this hour? Aren’t you filming a show?”
Luo Zeyu didn’t have time to explain much and anxiously asked, “Brother, are you outside?”
The other side replied, “Yes, I’m at the construction site.”
Luo Zeyu hurriedly said, “Brother, you need to leave where you are right now.”
“What’s wrong?” the other side asked, puzzled.
“There’s no time, just move back or step aside,” Luo Zeyu urged.
Although it was somewhat inexplicable, the other party still listened and stepped back a few paces.
Just then, a steel rod suddenly fell from the building above, plummeting straight down.
Coincidentally, it landed exactly where Luo Zexi had just been standing.
Luo Zexi and the people around him saw the steel rod heavily hit the ground, even making a small dent, and couldn’t help but gasp.
Had Luo Zexi not moved back just now, the steel rod would have fallen straight down and pierced right into his head.
From such a height, it could’ve completely penetrated his head, leaving almost no chance of survival.
Luo Zexi himself broke out in a cold sweat, realizing that if it weren’t for his brother urgently urging him to move back, he might have lost his life there.
“Brother, are you alright? Don’t scare me!” Luo Zeyu shouted into the phone after hearing no response for a moment.
Luo Zexi then came to his senses and recounted what had just happened.
“Little brother, why did you suddenly call and tell me to move back?” he couldn’t help but ask.
After hearing his brother’s account, Luo Zeyu also felt a cold sweat on his back. It was such a close call.
He replied, “Teacher Luo told me to call you.”
“Teacher Luo? The female guest from your variety show livestream?”
Luo Zexi hadn’t really watched the livestream, but he’d heard his younger brother praising Luo Ning recently.
Luo Zeyu said, “Yes, our Teacher Luo is a Feng Shui Master, and she must have sensed something, which is why she told me to call you.”
Then he looked at Luo Ning, who nodded.
“Our Teacher Luo is incredibly skilled in face reading, Brother. She really saved your life this time,” he added on the phone.
Luo Zexi had been skeptical about these things, but after what just happened, he couldn’t help but believe.
Otherwise, how could Lou Ning have known a steel rod was going to fall exactly on top of his head from so far away, and timed it so precisely?
It couldn’t possibly be arranged by her; that’s simply not conceivable.
Especially since he was originally planning to go the other way but had suddenly decided to check this side of the site, which made him turn around.
Of course, whether it was an accident or not is hard to say, but the Teacher Luo his brother spoke of indeed seemed a bit mystical.
Taking a deep breath, he said, “When you guys come back, I’ll thank her properly. For now, help me thank her.”
Whatever happened, his life was undoubtedly saved by her today.
Luo Zeyu, concerned, said, “Alright, then you be careful, and don’t walk around the site anymore. Just head back.”
“Okay,” Luo Zexi said, warmed by his brother’s concern.
Luo Zeyu hung up the phone and looked at Luo Ning with a grateful expression, “Teacher Luo, you truly are a savior for me and my brother.”
He could hardly imagine what it would have been like if his brother had really been hit by the steel rod and faced accidental death.
He surely wouldn’t have been able to accept it.
Luo Ning smiled and said, “I just saw that your forehead was darkening, and the Brother Palace was fading, so I thought I should warn you.”
“You and your brother are very lucky. I happened to see and calculate it just in time for him to escape this disaster.”
She and several students from Luo Zeyu’s group had a good relationship, and having seen it, she naturally wouldn’t ignore it.
As for knowing about the incident so precisely, aside from seeing the changes in Luo Zeyu’s face, it was mainly calculated.
