Chapter 94 Don’t Be a Dog
Zhong Mengfan, who didn't understand the situation, looked puzzled.
"Tsk." The woman curled her lips and said dissatisfiedly, "I've told you so many times, don't call me witch, call me Ah Jiang."
Chen Xingyun quickly said, "Sorry, sorry, this is our first time here. I heard from others that your special ability is that of a witch, so I subconsciously called it out."
"Sit down." A Jiang pointed to the chair in front of her.
After the two of them sat down, she asked, "I've never met you before. What level of professional heroes are you?"
They both said, "C-rank."
"Oh." Ah Jiang nodded calmly, speaking naturally, "C-rank hero, are you here to inquire about your career fortune? Let's be clear, psychics have a long lifespan, and their abilities grow with age, training, and various adventures. Whether you can become an A-rank or even a legendary hero is such a broad question that relying on fortune-telling will be highly inaccurate."
Zhong Mengfan shook his head. "No, I'm not here to ask about my career fortune. I want you to tell me about my love life."
Hearing Zhong Mengfan's words, A Jiang raised his eyebrows slightly. "Why do professional heroes have to worry about their love fortunes?"
"I do have someone I like, but I don't know if we will have a future together."
"Ah, now that we have a clear goal, it'll be much easier. Love fortune telling, 988 Hero Points per session."
Chen Xingyun was so shocked by the divination price that he choked. "Ah! That's too expensive! We're only C-rank heroes!"
Zhong Mengfan said at the same time, "Okay."
Now it was Chen Xingyun's turn to look at Zhong Mengfan in disbelief. "Why do you have so many points?"
"I saved it slowly by completing missions."
"No matter how much you save, I've never seen a C-rank who just became a professional hero have more than four figures of hero points, unless you haven't spent any of your points at all."
"I haven't spent much yet, because there's nothing I particularly want in the Hero Mall. But after spending 988, my savings are practically empty." Wen Xiaye also gave Zhong Mengfan the expensive flying cloak he'd originally wanted as a birthday gift. But, come to think of it, he didn't really have a lot of expenses, nor did he have anything particularly desirable.
Chen Xingyun still looked at Zhong Mengfan with a puzzled look, and murmured, "How is it possible..."
Ah Jiang interrupted them and said, "Well, let's get back to the point. Let's continue to predict your love life." She took out her communicator and held it in front of Zhong Mengfan. "Scan the code to pay. Thank you."
: "You have newly received points, 988 points!"
After the payment prompt sounded, A Jiang asked, "Do you have anything on you that the other person has used for a while?"
"Is this okay?" Zhong Mengfan took out Wen Xiaye's mask.
"Okay." A Jiang took the mask and said with understanding, "But no wonder you could predict love. It turns out you fell in love with a guy who is also a professional hero like you. Didn't the teachers at school advise you to avoid emotional entanglements with people with special abilities who are also professional heroes? Superheroes are a lifelong profession. You never know what kind of tasks you will face every day. Developing a workplace romance is not a wise choice." A Jiang shook his head slightly.
"I didn't graduate from the Academy for Psychics. My teacher probably never thought I would need this kind of admonition..."
Zhong Mengfan had a helpless smile on his face. "When it comes to feelings, by the time you realize it, it's already out of control. So please help me with the divination about him and me."
"Okay." A Jiang nodded to show that he understood.
She held Wen Xiaye's mask, her eyes gradually becoming hollow, her whole person transformed. She no longer had the "master aura" she'd deliberately exaggerate, only to be shattered by Chen Xingyun's words. She chanted a spell that no one else could hear, and an inexplicable, mysterious power seemed to truly emanate from her.
After a long time, she moved again.
Zhong Mengfan asked cautiously, "How is it?"
Ah Jiang looked up and looked at Zhong Mengfan seriously. "...Well, your love luck is very strange, very rare - it is both bad fate and good fate."
Her words made Zhong Mengfan nervous. "How could this be a bad fate? Why?" How could he and Xia Ye be a bad fate?
"There are many reasons. I can only divine, not accurately predict future outcomes. For example, the person you like didn't originally have a love line, but you unexpectedly barged in and forcibly changed your and their fates. Or perhaps, the reason lies with you, and you seem to have all kinds of magical experiences. Just like those legendary heroes, it feels like their lives are always full of twists and turns and unpredictable."
As if to conclude, she said, "Once things are full of variables, there is a chance that things will develop for the good, but there is also a chance that they will turn out badly."
"Ahaha, legendary hero or something like that, I'm still a long way off."
"It's not just about those S-class psychics. Superheroes, after all, have different destinies than ordinary people, and they can change based on their own will. Even among ordinary people, there are precedents of those with strong willpower who have broken free and defied fate."
Then A Jiang said, "If the person you like is an ordinary person without special abilities, the accuracy of divination should be higher. Now this ambiguous result has damaged my reputation. How about this, if you come again next time, I will give you a 20% discount. In fact, curse magic is what I am best at. Is there a guy you don't like? As long as I have his photo and name, I can help you and curse him." She smiled faintly, but as she spoke, her smile also had a creepy taste.
Zhong Mengfan quickly shook his head. "No, thank you."
988 Hero Points per transaction, even with a 20% discount, was still an absurdly high price. Zhong Mengfan could give up the matter regarding Wen Xiaye without hesitation. As for the rest, forget it. If there was someone he really disliked, he could knock them out with a single punch.
"It's a good fate, or it could be an unlucky one." Ah Jiang tilted his head, looked at Zhong Mengfan and said, "Maybe it's because whether it can succeed or not, and what the outcome will be, actually depends on your own choice."
"Hmm" Zhong Mengfan showed a puzzled expression.
"I received some hints during divination, which I'll give you as two pieces of advice: If you fall in love, you must give it your all. If you keep doing it, you might end up with nothing."
Zhong Mengfan blinked and said, "I always feel that the two sentences you said are a bit contradictory..."
"I don't know about that, because the tip only concerns you. I'm just passing it on."
Chen Xingyun touched his chin, contributed his only emotional experience, and analyzed, "If you understand it literally, of course, when you fall in love, you should be unreserved and treat the relationship wholeheartedly. At the same time, you must maintain your bottom line and principles, and don't be a slave to love like a bootlicker." It seemed that he was reliable for once.
Zhong Mengfan clenched his fists and said, "Then, I've decided—I will confess to him when I become a B-class hero."
