Upon hearing this, even Chu Yuying, who had set up all sorts of schemes and was very familiar with all kinds of supernatural events, was speechless.
This is family affection.
The bond of kinship is thicker than water.
Only family love can drive someone to do something so selfless, willing to exchange their life for their grandson's.
But this is reality, how could something like exchanging lives exist?
No one understood what so-called spiritual communication was better than Chu Yuying, a beneficiary of the system.
This is nothing more than exploiting the weaknesses in human nature, materializing what people fear into various terrifying ghosts and gods, thereby giving them psychological comfort.
For example, "It's not that you did anything wrong, but that you're being haunted by ghosts and spirits." "The feng shui of your place is bad, so you're having bad luck." "It's not your fault that you didn't pass the exam, but that some villain set you up."
Wait, wait, wait...
Many people don't need the truth; they just want an outlet to vent after experiencing terrible things.
Any channel will do.
Ghosts and spirits are a good excuse.
"Compared to others who use ghosts and gods to cover up their crimes, this grandfather... under the guise of the supernatural, all he did was want his grandson to live. Such pure and genuine affection suddenly made me reluctant to do business with him..."
Chu Yuying let out a long sigh. Although she liked money, she also had a conscience.
"To be honest, before this incident, I was a staunch atheist. In my view, even the most real paranormal events must have been carefully fabricated by someone. But this incident has shaken my beliefs..."
Feng Yang rubbed his face and gave a wry smile: "No one knows about the longevity lock being lost except for myself. I didn't even tell my mother. So how did Lao Gou find out?"
“He’s someone who can’t even find his way around normally, could he have come to Jiang City early, stolen my longevity lock, just to tell me this in a few days? It makes absolutely no sense…”
"I thought about it for days but couldn't figure it out. In the end, I could only helplessly accept the reality that ghosts and gods might really exist in the world."
Feng Yang raised his head, looked at Chu Yuying seriously, and said, "So, in conclusion... I only have one need."
"Since exchanging lives is feasible, can I spare some of my lifespan and give it to my grandfather? Is it really possible for the dead to come back to life?"
Upon hearing this, the atmosphere between the two immediately fell silent.
He dared not speak until he received Chu Yuying's reply; his heart was pounding in his throat.
The things that had happened to Feng Yang recently were simply too unbelievable. Even though he had accepted that there might be metaphysics in the world, asking him directly whether the dead could be brought back to life still made Feng Yang's expression turn somewhat strange.
Chu Yuying remained silent.
Because she hadn't decided whether or not to take the order.
The bond between Feng Yang and his grandfather was so deep that it touched her, a complete stranger.
This situation...
Do I still need to make money off him?
Chu Yuying suddenly felt a bit depressed, like the calm before a storm, making her feel terribly stifled.
"Classmate Chu?"
Finally, Feng Yang was driven almost crazy by the silence. "You're a top-tier psychic, right? We're classmates, even though we're not from the same school... I've heard rumors about you. In the psychic profession, your fees are the most reasonable in Jiang City."
"I can't afford the fees of other psychics."
Feng Yang lowered his head, his eyes dim: "So, if you're willing to help me with this, I... I can't offer an exorbitant reward, but I'll do my best to pay you, so... is that alright?"
Upon hearing this, Chu Yuying felt a slight sense of relief.
The other party's flattery undoubtedly hit the most crucial spot in Chu Yuying's heart.
Among psychics, her fees are indeed the most cost-effective.
This is the fundamental reason why her peers see her as a thorn in their side.
—How come someone who is better than me in both fame and ability charges less than me?
Are you going to play or not?
Chu Yuying suffered a lot when she was young, but thankfully, these hardships did not diminish her kindness.
Therefore, although charging less means earning less, at least it makes Chu Yuying feel better.
"Let me think about it first. This is my phone number. I'll let you know when I get back."
Chu Yuying took out a business card from her pocket, placed it on the table, and pushed it over: "You know, even psychics have a hard time bringing the dead back to life. No one can defy the laws of life and death in this world. If it were easy to do, the world would have been in chaos long ago. So I need to think about this carefully."
She is indeed very confused right now.
Because, although Feng Yang himself said he couldn't come up with the money that other psychics asked for, the situation was so serious that the amount of money the other party offered must not be small.
Chu Yuying asked herself honestly, and she knew she wanted to earn that money.
But the resurrection of the dead has gone beyond the scope of the plan.
Even the most difficult Heavenly Scheme cannot bring the dead back to life.
They can't just pick any extra to impersonate Feng Yang's grandfather, can they?
Chu Yuying had never even considered this idea.
That's ridiculous.
A child who was raised by his grandfather from a young age is closest to his grandfather. How could he possibly be fooled by just a stranger?
That's treating people like fools...
Therefore, Chu Yuying was undecided; she couldn't think of a solution that would satisfy both parties.
Fortunately, she is no longer alone.
When she was unsure of what to do, Chu Yuying could only rack her brains to come up with a better solution.
Now?
She has made many good friends.
For example, Sister Xiaoyue, and Jiang Yu.
as well as……
Xia Che.
"Yes, I know, thank you."
Feng Yang sniffed and nodded with a wry smile.
No one knows better than himself how difficult his demands are.
It's understandable that Chu Yuying needs time to consider.
"I'll wait for your call."
Feng Yang carefully put the business card away; this thin card was his only hope at the moment.
Before looking for Chu Yuying, Feng Yang had considered looking for someone else.
But those people either quoted an exorbitant price or were scammers.
Thanks to the hard work of his parents, Feng Yang's family situation has improved considerably. He came to see the psychic with his parents' permission, and they were able to contribute some of the money to pay the fee.
But if it's an astronomical price...
Even if they were emptied out, they still couldn't afford it.
