Chapter 204: Eight Characters (1/2)



Therefore, it can be said that the two of them and the families on both sides are already bound together in the eyes of the outside world, and some businesses of the two families have gradually joined forces and merged.

Kelly is a career-oriented woman and is not willing to be a leisurely lady after marriage, so she has always taken over the family business. This time she came to China to handle the branch company's affairs.

Who would have thought that during the time she had been in China, she had been feeling a little uncomfortable.

But she went for a check-up and found nothing. In the end, she could only attribute it to acclimatization and being unsuited to the climate and environment of a foreign country.

Unexpectedly, her recent discomfort was related to the ring given to her by her fiancé.

In just a few seconds, Kelly's mind started to work rapidly.

Looking up again, she looked straight at Lin Xi and asked, "Master Lin Xi, I would like to ask you, what is so strange about this ring?"

Lin Xi was not surprised that Kelly was so perceptive and discovered the problem in such a short time. After all, judging from her face, he knew that she was a smart and strong person.

"This ring is cursed. Wearing it for a long time will cause you to lose your vitality and eventually die."

As for what the specific curse was, Lin Xi couldn't tell. She could only see the general effect of the curse.

Because this curse is different from any she has ever seen, it is probably the work of a foreign Taoist priest.

This novel curse is quite interesting.

If there was a chance, Lin Xi would like to have a competition with the other party.

When Kelly heard this, her heart sank again.

Although she didn't quite understand what "loss of vital energy" meant, she could understand "death".

Therefore, if she continued to wear this ring without noticing, death would be waiting for her...

Kelly's eyes flashed.

She knew what she was going to do next.

"Thank you, Master Lin Xi."

A verbal thank you wasn't enough. Kelly directly asked for Lin Xi's contact information and bank account, giving her some practical thanks.

It just so happened that she saw a sentence on the Chinese Internet a few days ago: It is better to give a huge sum of money than to ask about your well-being.

This is consistent with her current situation.

No amount of verbal thanks can be as effective as a sum of money.

Lin Xi didn't refuse, but said to Kelly: "If you have any questions later, you can contact me."

In addition to the fact that Kelly's money was indeed sincere, she was also really interested in foreign Taoist priests.

Seeing that Kelly and Mike still had things to talk about, Lin Xi returned to Xu Jing.

After Xu Jing came back, she couldn't help but ask Lin Xi who those two people were, especially the male foreigner. She really thought he looked so familiar!

After hearing what Xu Jing said, Lin Xi remembered that Mike seemed to be a big internet celebrity.

It's just that at that time he enthusiastically invited himself and Ye Luoluo to watch his video, but as a result, several months passed and Lin Xi still hadn't watched it once.

"Maybe because Mike is a big internet celebrity?"

After hearing what Lin Xi said, Xu Jing finally remembered.

She slapped her forehead violently.

"Mike! Yes, yes, that's him!"

Then Xu Jing opened Mike's account and showed it to Lin Xi.

After several months, Lin Xi finally saw Mike's video.

The two of them were worried about how boring the meal would be, so they simply opened the video on Mike and watched it one by one, acting as electronic pickles.

It has to be said that the fact that Mike has tens of millions of fans on all major TV stations means that the content of his videos is indeed not an exaggeration.

His videos are very interesting. The key is that he has a simple and honest, down-to-earth feeling. He makes people laugh when he acts silly from time to time. The overall style is very relaxing and people can finish watching it unconsciously.

When they were halfway through their meal, Mike and Kelly were ready to leave.

Before leaving, the two of them came over to say hello to Lin Xi before leaving.

Seeing that millions of internet celebrities showed such respect to Lin Xi, Xu Jing suddenly had a deeper understanding of Lin Xi's strength.

After the big meal, Lin Xi returned to the "cage" of school to continue studying.

Well, there is still New Year's Day to look forward to.

For the next few days, she spent her days counting the days until the New Year's Day holiday.

Alas, she is a unique student who doesn’t like studying to this extent.

Well, New Year's Day came a few days later. Lin Xi had three days off and originally wanted to stay at home and lie down for a few days, but he didn't expect to receive a call from Xu Jing on the first day of the holiday.

As soon as the call was connected, Xu Jing excitedly asked Lin Xi if he was free.

Lin Xi happened to be free today, so he asked her what was wrong.

"You're free, that's great! Here's the thing: my dad met an aunt a while ago, and I think they seem to be getting along well. If nothing goes wrong, they might get married, so I wanted to ask you to calculate their horoscopes to see if they're compatible."

Xu Jing's biological parents died when she was very young, and she was almost entirely raised by her father.

Xu Jing felt pain in her heart as her father acted as both a father and a mother, so she had no objection to her father remarrying. She had even advised him many times before to be brave and go for it when he found happiness.

However, she didn't get into university before, and her father was always worried about her studies and didn't dare to distract her.

Now that she had been admitted to university, he seemed to no longer have anything in particular to worry about, and he began to think about his own personal problems.

Through a friend's introduction, he met a woman of similar age some time ago. Her husband also died early, and she raised her son single-handedly. Now her son is in college like Xu Jing.

As for the family background, the other party was just an ordinary company employee. His income was not as high as Xu's father's, but he was gentle and generous, and good-looking. After getting to know him for a while, when Xu Jing went home for the New Year's Day holiday, Xu's father introduced him to his daughter.

Xu Jing met the other party yesterday afternoon, and her father took her to the restaurant at home for dinner.

Besides the aunt, there was also her son eating together.

During the time, the aunt was always enthusiastic in serving food to Xu Jing and cared about her life. Although her son didn't talk much, he seemed to be a gentle and easy-going person.

However, they had only met once, so Xu Jing's impression of them was only superficial.

But she believed her father would make his own judgment.

Since he had been in contact with the aunt for some time and felt that she was a nice person, she naturally chose to believe her father.

After dinner, they returned home and naturally talked about this matter.

At Xu's father's age, he actually no longer has such expectations for passionate love. He prefers to live a simple and down-to-earth life.

Besides, marriage is a big deal. Although he is currently quite satisfied with the other party in all aspects, he has not yet made a decision on the matter of marriage.

The main thing is that their kind of union is not just about two people getting married together, there are also children from both sides, which is also a big problem.

He didn't want his daughter to have conflicts with the other party's son after they got married, and then be bullied.

So he wanted to wait and see for a while, especially pay more attention to the other party's son.

But Xu Jing felt that her father was overthinking things.

Although she could understand that her father was doing it for her own good, she was already so old, how could she still be so stupid as to let others bully her?

If it was really just because he was worried about her that her father had not yet considered marrying that aunt, she said there was no need to worry.
