Chapter 12: Eccentric fortune teller (Part 2)

Jiang Wei became teary in excitement and grabbed the bags that were about to fall: “Fat brother, you are really my brother!”

Fatty Wang lifted his foot to kick Jiang Wei aside, and angrily said: “My surname is Wang!”

The two went to the kitchen with a bunch of things. The refrigerator in Lin Qingyin’s house was not big, but it was empty. Nothing can be seen inside. Jiang Wei and Fatty Wang worked together to put the fruit drinks in the refrigerator and put the ice cream in their mouth. Jiang Wei didn’t forget to help Lin Qingyin choose the best one. After unpacked it, he handed it to her.

Lin Qingyin reached out and took the ice cream and put it in her mouth. When she tasted the icy-cold sweet and milky taste, her eyes widened in surprise: “This is really delicious!”

Jiang Wei looked at Lin Qingyin’s eyes and wondered. If he doesn’t look at the master’s fortune-telling skills, she was quite cute.

After attending makeup lessons during the daytime, doing homework at night time, Lin Qingyin cultivate the early morning. Lin Qingyin can’t wait to use all the rest of the summer vacation in cultivation and don’t want to waste a minute.

It took Jiang Wei 3 and a half days to finish the mathematics book for the first year of high school. He was trying his best to help Lin Qingyin to make up lessons. After closing the math book, Jiang Wei breathed a sigh of relief, and searched the remaining textbooks: “What shall we study in the afternoon?”

“I will give you a holiday in the afternoon, and you don’t need to come here tomorrow.” Lin Qingyin took out two homework books and handed it to him: “I think I can’t finish my homework before school opening. I will leave these two books in your care. I hope you can write the correct answer to them the day after tomorrow.”

Jiang Wei looked at the homework that Lin Qingyin forcefully stuffed in him, and looked at her incredibly: “Didn’t you just said to help you make-up lessons? Why are you giving me your homework?”

Lin Qingyin looked at him: “Your father agreed.”

Jiang Wei remembered what his father said in anger, and reluctantly accepted the workbook: “Is this the so-called legendary father’s debt and son’s repayment?”

Lin Qingyin nodded her head: “This understanding is correct. For the sake of your hard work in the past few days, I will give you divination. Stay at your parent’s house tomorrow. Remember don’t go out.”

Jiang Wei’s heart trembled, but his expression became more serious: “Is Chen Yucheng going to our door? Should I make some preparations in advance, such as squeezing some blood?”

Lin Qingyin stretched out her hand to catch the red and yellow spiritual energy around Jiang Wei and drew an invisible amulet in his life palace: “You don’t need to do anything, just watch how he kills himself.”

After touching his forehead that Lin Qingyin just touched, Jiang Wei suddenly felt a lot more at ease.

“You wait for me here at 3 p.m. the day after tomorrow.”

These days, Lin Qingyin’s words still lingered in Zhang Jianguo’s ears.

In fact, his family doesn’t live near Public Park. It’s just, he can’t sleep recently. In order not to affect the rest of his family, Zhang Jianguo always goes out before dawn, and go back home around 7 or 8 o’clock in the morning. That day, he happened to pass by the Public Park, so he walked in.

After a short turn in the Public Park, he saw a big old tree. Three people were surrounded by a group of people. He came to watch out of curiosity and found out that it was a little girl, doing fortune-telling. At first, he didn’t take it seriously. He had seen many fortune tellers in his life, but most of them were 40 or 50 years old. So what can a little girl predict?

But after watching for a while, Zhang Jianguo was a little surprised. The little girl basically didn’t ask anything. She could tell what the other party wants to calculate just by looking at the written word and look into their face. The fortune-tellers he knew were no match for her.

In a blink of an eye, she finished giving divination of the 10 people who had made an appointment. The next fortune-telling session will be held after 7 days. The people next to him rush to sign up. While he was hesitating, he saw the Little Master pointed her finger at him and told him to find her at 3 o’clock in the afternoon the next day.

At that time, Zhang Jianguo and the little master looking at each other. The other party’s eyes were very clear, but he felt like she could see through him.

Zhang Jianguo prepared the money long ago, but he still hesitating and didn’t know whether to go at the appointed time. As time passed, Zhang Jianguo looked at the photos of his granddaughter on the TV cabinet and finally made up his mind, and then he went out with the bag he had prepared.

At 3 o’clock in the afternoon in the month of August, it was the hottest time. People’s scalp felt hot under the sun, but there were still many people in Public Park.

Zhang Jianguo didn’t want to hide from the shade. He kept his head down and counted the bricks under his feet. When he arrived under the old tree, he subconsciously took a glance at the watch on his wrist, which happened to be exactly 3 o’clock.

Lin Qingyin was still sitting cross-legged on the ground. She has white and tender skin, no one would guess that she was actually a fortune teller.

“I’ve given you enough time to think about it. Have you think things through?”

Lin Qingyin’s clear voice directly hit Zhang Jianguo’s heart, which made him come back to his senses.

Zhang Jianguo looked at Lin Qingyin hesitantly, then said after a while: “My family has been experiencing problems recently. I want to figure out if something has been suppressing us.”

Lin Qingyin gently stroked the tortoiseshell in her hand, and looked at him with a smile: “One death, one injury, and one illness, things are really not going well.”
