The only difference was that a few days ago, she had a fortune teller tell her fortune. The Taoist priest spoke ambiguously, and those words could be used on anyone. She followed him all the way and didn't find anything suspicious.
Upon further reflection, she realized that she hadn't revealed any flaws to anyone.
Qiao Lian'er smiled and said with absolute certainty, "I don't believe it."
She was very careful with every step she took, and she was confident about her life and future.
Song Ruier looked at her with amusement: "This time, you're really wrong. You always do things perfectly, thinking that God will always be on your side, but everyone has their bad days."
Qiao Lian'er remained calm: "A loser has no right to spout nonsense in front of a winner. You pin your hopes on my misfortune, but that's nothing but wishful thinking. You can't beat me, so you comfort yourself. Is this your last resort?"
Song Ruier snorted: "Just you wait and see. Soon your mind and attention will keep declining, as if your soul has been ripped away. You will struggle and desperately fight against this feeling, but it's no use. You will only become more and more dull, as if a hand is pulling you down into an abyss."
After saying these words, Song Ruier glanced triumphantly at Qiao Lian'er, then got up and left.
After taking a few steps, he turned back and said, "You, surnamed Qiao, are destined to lose to me. Qiao Yunni will know who her truly worthy children are. From now on, she will only have to come begging to me. At that time, she will regret ignoring me before."
Qiao Lian'er looked at him like he was an idiot: "If you have a problem with your brain, go get it fixed. Barking at me won't help."
A cold glint flashed in Song Ruier's eyes, and with a disdainful smirk, she strode away.
Tsk, Qiao Lian'er thought to herself, judging from Song Rui'er's appearance, she was certain that Song Rui'er was doomed.
She said it was like her soul had been ripped out, and the more she listened, the more unbelievable it seemed. Could it be that Song Ruier was using some kind of evil trick on her?
Qiao Lian'er gave the beggar all the unfinished snacks on the table.
With Song Ruier's reminder, she became extra cautious about traveling and eating in the days that followed.
They are almost invisible when they go out, and they eat all their food in the space.
Song Ruier couldn't see her anywhere else, so she waited not far from the Qiao family's gate.
Even when just strolling around near her home, Qiao Lian'er would still make sure to show herself and make her presence known.
However, Song Ruier noticed that after more than ten days, Qiao Lian'er seemed to have no reaction at all.
She looked radiant, with a healthy glow, and that carefree, nonchalant air about her that he disliked.
"No rush, it takes time. It will be effective in a month no matter what," Song Ruier comforted herself.
Ten more days passed, and Qiao Lian'er remained unchanged.
It was already the end of the month, and there were only a few days left until the end of the month.
Song Ruier finally started to panic. He went back to the small courtyard to check the scarecrow. To avoid Qiao Lian'er following him, he had locked it in the cabinet after bringing it back and had never opened it.
Upon uncovering the yellow cloth, the note with Qiao Lian'er's birth date and time was still there, and the giant centipede was still wriggling inside the scarecrow. The scarecrow was covered in black mist, and the meridian incantations filled with black blood flickered faintly.
"Where exactly is the problem?" Song Ruier clutched the scarecrow, unable to figure it out for a long time.
"Could this damned monk be lying to me? No, I need to test him on someone first."
