The old woman's grip on Shen Jiezhu's hand gradually lost its strength. The moment it dropped, she lost all strength and fell off the chair, covering her face with her hands and crying.
At this point in the recording, everything that needed to be said had been said, and everything that needed to be done had been done. Shen Jiezhu should have left the room and returned to the villa to reunite with the others.
But she did not leave. Instead, she stood at the door, looking at the woman who was half-kneeling beside the old woman and supporting her body, and was silent for a long time.
Ates noticed this situation, and subconsciously, he felt that Shen Jiezhu had something else to say.
Soon, Shen Jiezhu called out a name.
"Ms. Guffey."
The young woman was startled and looked up. Shen Jiezhu smiled at her and pointed to the door: "I have a few words to say to you. Can I talk to you alone?"
This sentence also told the program crew not to film it, as this was a private communication between the two of them.
Guffy stood up and walked over slowly.
When the two of them went out and stood in a deserted corner, Shen Jiezhu took the lead in pointing at her lapel microphone, and the latter immediately reacted by taking off the microphone and turning it off.
Now the two of them can speak freely.
While Guffy was tidying up the microphone, Shen Jiezhu looked at her carefully.
Guffy wore a black and white long dress today. The very simple color accentuated her unique temperament. She was a charming woman with an angelic face, a devilish figure, a gentle demeanor, and a kind and soft heart.
She has her own unique charm, no wonder... Clay fell in love with her.
Fall in love with your sister.
Even if you know there will be no results.
"Ms. Guffey, I know about your forbidden love."
As soon as he finished speaking, Guffy looked over, tears welling up in his eyes. He tried hard not to cry, but his lips were already trembling.
"Just now, Clay was trying to protect you by avoiding the subject and was reluctant to tell me why he stayed here, but before he left, he did tell me."
"He, said something..." Guffy's voice was hoarse and very soft.
"He said that he respects all your decisions. If you want to get married, you should find a man you love and marry him; if you want to have children, you should live a good life with him and have your own children; if you want to immigrate to another place, you should find a country or city that you like the most."
Shen Jiezhu lowered her eyes, and the expression on Clay's face when he said these words appeared before her eyes.
"He said he doesn't want to be a burden to you and he will bless you."
"He has never been a burden to me!"
Guffy suddenly became excited, tears blurring her vision. She raised her hand to wipe her eyes, trying to see more clearly so as not to miss every word and expression of the person in front of her.
"If I'm the reason why he stays here, how can he not see how much I miss him every day and night? How can he say such a thing? Why?"
"He always comes to my aunt's dreams, but he never comes to see me. Why is that? Doesn't he love me?"
"Doesn't he know that I've been thinking about him? How can he let me like someone else and be with someone else!"
"Why?!"
Shen Jiezhu sighed, stretched out her hand with difficulty, and pointed at the necklace on her neck: "Maybe it's because of the necklace on your body that he can't get close to you..."
Necklace!
Necklace...
Guffy suddenly paused, and subconsciously grasped the necklace with her right hand. Suddenly, she widened her eyes in surprise, trying to see a joke on Shen Jiezhu's face.
But no.
Shen Jiezhu is very serious, and her seriousness cannot be doubted.
“Necklace, but… this necklace was given to me by him! Ahhhh!”
Guffy finally broke down and burst into tears.
This necklace was originally a ring, which they bought secretly together, and no one else knew about the existence of this ring.
After Clay's accident, she strung the rings into a necklace and wore it around her neck. Over the years, she never took it off, not even when taking a shower.
She thought it was a token of her longing, but unexpectedly it became an obstacle that prevented him from getting close...
The woman's painful cries echoed throughout the long corridor, but fortunately the door was tightly closed and no one could hear her cries. She had been suppressed in doubt and longing for too long, and now she really needed a space to vent.
As a metaphysician, Shen Jiezhu had just participated in her story and felt sad for her, but now she was separated from her story and watched her lying on the ground, crying gradually until she was silent.
Clay has fulfilled his wish. He has no more obsessions and is willing to follow the Grim Reaper to the underworld.
Now even if the necklace was off, Clay would not come into her dreams.
Shen Jiezhu didn't move the whole time. She just stayed by her side, like a little light in the darkness. She didn't say a word, but it was enough.
After a long time, Guffy finally calmed down.
Shen Jiezhu watched her stand up from the ground, staggering, and did not help her up out of sympathy. Instead, she took out a small note from her pocket.
This was something she had written a long time ago and wanted to give to her.
"What is this...?"
Guffy took the note in confusion.
is an address.
"There is a gift he prepared for you. It has been many years. I don't know if it is still there. If you have time, go and take a look. Then you will understand his feelings for you."
…
"Thank you... Miss Shen, thank you so much. If it weren't for you, I would have resented him for the rest of my life. I have doubted countless times whether he really loved me. I even doubted whether those things back then were just a dream."
"Now I know this is not a dream, this is real. We really loved each other, and we still love each other until now. That's enough. Thank you..."
Shen Jiezhu listened to Ge Fei's words and somehow felt relieved all of a sudden.
Now that everything has settled, it can be brought to a successful conclusion.
She has said everything she needed to say, and finally...
She let out a long sigh and relaxed. When she and Guffy entered the room together, they both looked calm, as if nothing had happened.
Guffy returned to the old woman, helped her along, and thanked the others.
Shen Jiezhu went over to say hello to Ates and said that she had to leave early, but if any footage was needed in the later stage, she could record it at any time.
Ates knew that she had an important trip to Seoul and she had to go to the airport to catch a flight. So even though she had many doubts in her mind and wanted to ask her for advice, she nodded very readily and asked the fastest and most stable driver to take her to the airport.
"Oh, dear, our next recording is in Thailand. There is a haunted house that we need to go to. Once you have dealt with things in Seoul, just go directly to Bangkok. Tell me your flight number and I will pick you up."
"Okay, then contact me. I can do it very quickly and it can be done in one day."
Aites nodded: "It's just right. We will leave for Bangkok tomorrow, so you have a day and a half, dear. By the way, I heard that your Xiaomi is not going back with you, right?"
"Well, I can go back by myself. Xiaomi will go to Bangkok with you. She has some cooperation to discuss."
"That's great, I'll arrange everything, don't worry, I'll wait for you to come back!"
Sister Shen waved at him with a smile on her face: "Okay, when I come back, you have to treat me to a Thai meal, right?"
"Of course, dear, we'll be waiting for you!"
Ates rushed over, the two of them gave her a big hug, and then watched her leave.
Without having time to say goodbye to the other psychics, Shen Jiezhu hurried to find Xiaomi, got the documents needed for boarding, and went to the airport with her bag.
It was a nine-hour flight. Because Shen Jiezhu was afraid that Quan Zhilong would wait for her to teach him singing at night, she only told Quan Zhilong the news and asked him not to wait for her and that he should get enough rest as the concert was very tiring.
Wednesday, August 17th.
Today is the fortune-telling hall's annual disciple competition.
Other circles may not have felt it, but the undercurrent had already been stirring in the metaphysical circle.
With Shen Jiezhu's seat in front, Che Chengzheng took advantage of the situation and successfully bargained with the fortune-telling house, increasing the number of disciples he could originally take from five to all disciples.
In the first competition of the fortune-telling hall, all the members of the wizard hall were present, which was already good enough. However, although the director of the fortune-telling hall, Che Chengzheng, was old, he was obviously not a pushover. He required not only the wizard hall to be present, but also the people from the feng shui hall and the physiognomy hall.
What was supposed to be a competition among disciples of one hall somehow turned into a competition among four halls.
During this period, the training in the four gyms became more and more intense, and the mental state of decline and fatigue in the past few years was transformed into an iron will that dares to fight and strive.
The extension course of Guan Xiangguan is to learn Feng Shui with one hand and catch ghosts with the other. Let’s not talk about the results, at least the attitude is impeccable.
The fortune teller hangs around the cemetery every day, just waiting to pull out some little ghost to practice his skills.
A feng shui parlor set up a stall to read people's faces. At first, because the readings were not accurate enough, they mistook a young girl's face for one that indicated she was cheating on her husband, and the stall was smashed several times.
The three halls were stimulated by Shen Jiezhu's all-round courses and became a mess. The media were secretly saying that the fourth hall might collapse because they have now started to steal other people's business.
In the past, it was done secretly.
Now it's a blatant robbery.
Is it right or wrong for Shen Jiezhu to join the Wizarding House? Is such a change in the metaphysical circle appropriate?
This topic is very popular, and some netizens even set up a voting system and invited everyone to vote.
After three days of behind-the-scenes work in four museums, the conclusion was finally reached.
Shen Jiezhu: Every museum should join, that would be fair.
If one person is divided into four people, wouldn't the pig be exhausted to death?
The final result pleased everyone in the metaphysics circle, but it angered the fans. Some technical experts directly hacked the voting channel.
In the end, the media reported it in vain, the netizens voted in vain, and the four museums operated in vain.
Under the triple loneliness.
The Disciple Competition is finally about to begin!
The Wizard Pavilion had been holding back its anger for a long time because other pavilions were trying to snatch Shen Jiezhu from them. The disciple competition started at 10 a.m., and a group of people started washing up at 5 or 6 a.m., before daybreak.
Some even took a shower and changed into new clothes feeling refreshed.
"The bus is already waiting outside, hurry up! Don't waste time, we want to be the first ones there, sit there to calm the situation, and let them know how powerful we are!"
"Yeah, if we get there earlier than the fortune teller, that would be so prestigious!" a disciple echoed excitedly, patted the person eating a sandwich next to him, snatched the sandwich and stuffed it into his own mouth.
"Why are you still sitting down to eat? Let's go eat in the car!"
"You ate it all, what am I going to eat?"
"Ahhh, don't hit me in the face, I still have to rely on my handsome face to fight today!"
"I think you are going to embarrass us!"
"Tsk, we're here to mess things up, okay?"
"That's right. We've been suppressed for so long, can't we just make a scene?"
"Oh, it would be great if Master Shen was here. With her around, I would feel proud even if I was beaten to a pulp."
"Master Shen is in Russia. I heard that recording "Battle of Psychics" is very tiring. She definitely can't come over."
"I miss Master Shen. When will she come back?"
"Hahahaha, Master Shen will be so pissed off when he hears this. He'll be beaten to a pulp. Don't even call yourself my disciple when you go out!"
Everyone burst into laughter. Amidst the laughter, a soft voice was heard, with a smile and it was extremely gentle.
"Hahaha, that won't do. My disciple can't be beaten to a pulp..."
???
This voice sounds familiar.
Everyone looked in the direction of the sound in surprise.
One disciple had just put on half of his clothes, but at this moment he was so happy that he just took them off and jumped out with his upper body naked.
"Ahhhhhhh! Master Shen, you're back!"
"Master Shen, are you back to mess things up?"
