Chapter 23
After playing for a while, and still not deciding which channel to watch, Qin Yu threw the remote control next to her: "You watch it, I'm going to go get busy first."
Not knowing what he was up to, she didn't ask. She switched the channel again to watch Meng Mian playing games, but it was already over. She switched to the movie channel, hoping to watch Ning Yuan, but that was over too. Not knowing what to watch, she found a TV series, and it turned out to be one starring Gu Anan. She found switching back and forth too tiring, so she left it there.
She leaned back on the sofa, opened Xuanshitong, and wondered if she should take an order. As soon as she clicked in, she discovered someone had privately chatted with her through her profile two hours ago. It seemed the other party had two options, and she didn't know which to choose.
"Hello, I'm here. Could you tell me in detail what your two choices are?" She sent her question but received no response. Perhaps she wasn't looking at her phone, so she exited the chat interface and went to browse the website's homepage.
In fact, this website is quite interesting. There are all kinds of orders posted, and the replies below are also quite funny.
Before fortune-telling: Master, please help me see if we can go long-term.
After fortune telling: Impossible, not accurate, we are a perfect match.
Comment below:
My destiny is in my own hands.
If your left eyelid twitches, it means wealth; if your right eyelid twitches, it means superstition
Haha ... Me too.
…
She scrolled through the comments for a while when the other party contacted her: "Hello, I have two options. Location one is where I'm currently working. The work is easy and the position is decent, but the commute is a bit longer, about 20 minutes. Location two is where I'd like to move to. The work won't be particularly easy. I used to be an ordinary employee, so the commute is almost non-existent. The salaries and benefits at these two locations seem to be similar."
Lin Ruo saw this problem as a difficult one to solve. No one knew which path to take. She examined the cards carefully and then pulled out a two-choice formation to help her choose the right one. After making her choice, she began to explain, "Hello, this is a two-choice formation. The current state is the Magician (reversed). Option A is the Hanged Man (reversed), with the future development being the King of Wands (upright). Option B is the Moon (upright), with the future development being the Six of Wands (upright)."
"The reversed Magician suggests you may be lacking motivation or creativity, and your plans seem difficult to implement. This reversed state leads to fatigue with the status quo. So you crave change, but you need to be cautious. Choosing Status A means you'll feel exhausted by external factors. You may become a leader in the future, but it will take a long time. Staying will maintain the status quo, but it will lead to internal friction."
"As for option B, the current situation with the Moon upright is full of uncertainty, and you may feel fear in your interpersonal relationships and the atmosphere. However, the future is the Six of Wands. If you can get through the adjustment period, you may be promoted, and others will identify with you. I recommend option B. Although the process may be scary, the final result is still good. But no matter which one you choose, you must follow your heart. Another piece of advice is to never sugarcoat the path you have not taken."①
She sent the result of her calculation, and the other party replied after a while: "OK, thank you."
"It's okay." The other party was very straightforward. After she sent this message, he directly transferred the money to her.
Just as she finished calculating, the takeaway arrived. Qin Yu went over to take it, put it on the table, and turned to get the pot.
She stood up and separated the vegetables from the meat, then went to get the bowls and chopsticks, all of which were ready-made and could be placed directly on the table for eating. After the hot pot was ready, they sat together, simmering the hot pot while browsing their phones, each busy with their own things.
Lin Ruo flipped through the posts on Xuanshitong and found that there were no orders, so he turned to watch short videos. For some reason, he didn't see any information about himself when he watched the videos this time.
Maybe it's because I haven't browsed for a long time, so I can't see it. I didn't think much about it and continued browsing until I heard the voice of fortune-telling from Qin Yu's phone across from me. He must be reading a fortune.
Before she could ask, he handed her the phone and asked, "Do you know how to do this?"
She took it and examined it carefully, realizing it was a standard public divination. It had four indicators, allowing everyone to choose the one they were most interested in and then view the group analysis. Overall, there were some matches, but it wasn't as accurate as a private divination. After all, it could be analyzed and interpreted based on individual circumstances.
Qin Yu stared at her, wanting to know if she could calculate. She nodded in his direction, "Yes, I can."
"So, was her calculation accurate?" Qin Yu asked this question, which is a question that everyone who doesn't understand metaphysics would ask.
"How to explain it? If you just want entertainment, then this is relatively accurate. But if you want real analysis and suggestions, this is not enough. You still need to do private divination. After all, public divination integrates everyone's information." For people who don't understand metaphysics at all, this is the only explanation he can give.
"Then can you tell me how my fortune is going recently? It would be even better if you could tell me about my academic performance." He suddenly wanted to tell my fortune, which made Lin Ruo stunned. He didn't expect that he would want to do this.
Seeing his expectant gaze, knowing there was no way to refuse, Lin Ruo could only pick up her phone and, while shuffling the cards, asked, "Are you just asking about your studies?"
"Yes, studies." He didn't want to ask casually but really wanted to know. Lin Ruo had no choice but to tell him his fortune.
Anyway, she just wanted to take a quick look, so she exited the electronic card software and went to the social software instead. She opened the chat box, selected the dice, and threw out three numbers, which were 414. Using Xiao Liuren to analyze, they were Chikou, Chikou, and Da'an.
This showed that she was thinking about how to explain it to him. After a long deliberation, she decided to tell him the problem in very simple terms: "You will feel some pressure in your studies at first, but you will get the desired results in the end. It's like breaking down first and then building up. But be careful with verbal arguments."
After hearing her answer, Qin Yu nodded thoughtfully: "Oh!" Without giving her any feedback, he continued to scroll through the videos.
This was the first time he felt this kind of metaphysics, so his reaction was normal. After all, he had not yet felt the power of metaphysics.
The two of them sat there, heads down, eating hot pot. Lin Ruo watched a few videos, but when she felt bored, she went to look up Meng Mian's information. Originally, her next target was Lu Yinzhou, but after a few encounters, she realized that he was a five-star difficulty, not easy to conquer, and might even make him pause there. So, she set her second target on Meng Mian, who had a four-star difficulty.
There is not much information about him, probably about his performance in each game and his personal character. He is reluctant to talk but has a bad temper. His teammates have a neutral evaluation of him, thinking that he has good skills but an average personality.
The Qifeng team had a live broadcast every week. Although Meng Mian didn't always participate, he still had many fans who were waiting for him to appear, even if it was only for a second. She looked at the calendar and found that today was the day of the live broadcast. So she returned to the video software and searched for the official account of the Qifeng team. It was indeed live.
After clicking in, I found that there were over 100,000 fans watching, and the barrage of comments kept sending Meng Mian's name, which at this moment was a concrete manifestation of his status as the team's ace. Because his figure did not appear on the screen at this time, these people were probably also members of the team, but their influence was not as great as Meng Mian's.
A few minutes later, one of the members spoke up to explain. "Hello everyone, Meng Mian is currently training, so he won't be able to appear in our livestream today. Please forgive me."
As soon as these words were spoken, the number of people in the live broadcast room instantly dropped by half. Qin Yu on the opposite side raised his head and asked in confusion, "What are you looking at?"
"Game live broadcast, do you want to watch it?" She pointed to the phone in her hand, and the other party shook his head.
Lin Ruo stared at the live broadcast room. She had no intention of leaving. Since she had nothing to do at the moment, she decided to learn about it while eating. After all, knowing yourself and your enemy will ensure victory in every battle.
"Hello everyone, welcome to our live broadcast room. The team members will go to training next week, and we will broadcast it live to you then."
"Meng Mian? He will go. It seems that everyone likes Meng Mian very much."
"He will be competing this weekend. If you want to watch, you can come and watch. Everyone is welcome."
After hearing the news from the anchor, Lin Ruo exited the live broadcast room and immediately checked the competition information. There was a competition this weekend afternoon, and the location happened to be in a nearby shopping mall. Should she go and take a look?
After she thought of this, she raised her head and looked at Qin Yu who was sitting opposite her. The other party was looking at her at this time.
She swallowed and asked him, "Are you going?"
"Ah?" Qin Yu was stunned, not quite understanding what she meant.
"I want to go and take a look. This game looks quite interesting. It should be in the shopping mall next to our house, not far away. It's a good opportunity for me to take a stroll in the morning and then go over in the afternoon. What do you think?" She shook her phone, pointed at the picture inside, and looked at him with anticipation in her eyes.
"I..." He didn't want to go, but he didn't know how to refuse, so he finally nodded: "Okay."
"Great, I'll go see what we're going to eat that day." Lin Ruo didn't expect that he would agree after only a few seconds of hesitation. She quickly checked the surrounding food and finally chose skewers. She still liked these flavors.
The two of them had almost finished eating at this time, so they put down their phones and stood up to clean up. Lin Ruo had just picked up the dishes when she found someone sending her a message. She looked down and saw that it was Zhou Yuewan. The two of them left their contact information before leaving the show.
"Ruoruo, do you like watching game competitions? My brother is going to play a game this weekend. Let's go watch it together?"
After seeing this, Lin Ruo flipped through the pictures she had sent. Meng Mian was clearly there, so she probably meant to be there. But was there someone with the surname Zhou as well? Perhaps they were relatives of hers.
"Yeah, I just wanted to go over and take a look." She agreed immediately without mentioning anything else.
"That's great, Ruoruo, see you then." From her tone, it can be seen that she is very excited.
