Chapter 52 I won't touch it either.
Lu Yao starts her live stream for a new night.
With a whoosh, dozens of carnivals exploded on the screen.
The comments section is already numb; I don't want to ask who's spamming it anymore.
Lu Yao checked her live stream's backend data.
With the strong support of several top-ranked ladies like Gu Jing, Ye Zhirou, and Yao Muling, plus some scattered donations, the account has accumulated a six-figure sum waiting to be withdrawn.
In addition, Ye Zhirou had previously bought the Heart-Cleansing Mantra from her, and directly gave her a bank card with a considerable amount of money in it.
Although she doesn't need the money right now, her living expenses will definitely be considerable after she leaves the mental hospital.
Money is something you can never have too much of.
Lu Yao had already guessed the identity of the person on the other end and invited them to connect online to speak.
A middle-aged man's face quickly appeared on the screen.
His face exuded shrewdness and competence, with a smile playing on his lips.
He looks like someone who has been in the business world for many years and is very worldly-wise.
The middle-aged man's voice was full of respect and enthusiasm, "You must be Daoist Xuanjin. I have long admired your name. Please do not find these tips offensive."
Lu Yao thanked her readily, "You must be Fan Boren's father?"
[It turns out he's Lai Cai's father; their facial features do indeed look very similar.]
Finding a kidney donor is such a joyous occasion! Yesterday I was lying in bed half-dead, but now I'm glowing with health.
Well, Lai Cai did it voluntarily; no one forced him.
Fan Pingwei's smile deepened, and he bowed slightly to express his gratitude, "You are indeed incredibly resourceful and truly capable. Thank you, Daoist Xuanjin, for helping my youngest son, Boren, who had been wandering far from home, find his way back home. You have also given me a glimmer of hope. You are truly a benefactor to our family."
Lu Yao waved her hand, "These are all small things within my capabilities."
Fan Pingwei's eyes flashed with urgency as he leaned forward. "Daoist Xuanjin, could you please tell my fortune again? I can afford any price. You have such discerning eyes that you know I'm not being polite. Please just ask."
Lu Yao said, "Mr. Fan, my rule here is that I only count those who are destined to meet me, so I don't care about the amount of money. However, tonight's destined person is indeed you. So, do you have any questions?"
Upon hearing this, Fan Pingwei's face lit up with joy, and the wrinkles on his face smoothed out. "That's wonderful! I also feel that our Fan family and you are truly destined to meet! What I want to ask is something you probably already know, and it's related to the surgery I'm going to have later."
Without hesitation, Lu Yao said, "The surgery will go smoothly. Afterwards, please take your medication on time, have regular check-ups, and maintain good lifestyle habits."
She felt something was off after she finished speaking.
...Her words didn't sound like a fortune teller giving instructions; they sounded more like a doctor giving medical advice.
Every day in the mental hospital, I see medical workers like Li Mei and Zheng Wei.
Under their influence, I unconsciously started speaking in their tone.
Fortunately, Fan Pingwei was too happy to pay attention to her words, and was so immersed in the good news that the surgery went smoothly that he didn't think about them carefully.
"Thank you, Master! Thank you, Master! I'm relieved! You're truly my lucky star!"
Lu Yao smiled. "This question is actually too simple. Your attending physician could give a similar answer. Mr. Fan, you can ask another question."
Fan Pingwei's eyes lit up. "You're so generous!"
After a moment's thought, he immediately thought of his own company's unresolved project.
"Master, let me ask you another business question. Please don't be offended by my money-grubbing. Actually, there's something I've been struggling to decide on lately. There's a company, let's call it Company A, that wants to partner with my family on a real estate project. They want me to join them in acquiring a plot of land in the southwest of Changfeng District. The price is a bit high, and I'm hesitating."
Wow, if this boss's surname is Fan, I think I know which wealthy family he comes from. No wonder he'd rather sacrifice a kidney than let go of this business.
[I've leveled up too; I can sit here and listen to multi-billion dollar project deals now.]
Company A?
A faint smile appeared on Lu Yao's face. "It must be the Lu family's company."
Southwest of Changfeng District...
Lu Yao pondered intently.
"This deal is not worth doing."
Fan Pingwei's eyes widened. This was an investment project involving hundreds of millions of yuan, yet the anchor gave such a decisive negative answer.
"Please enlighten me, Master."
Because it was this anchor who personally brought Fan Boren back to his side and gave him hope for life, Fan Pingwei trusted Lu Yao from the bottom of his heart.
He was actually quite interested in this project.
If successful, the profits will be considerable.
Lu Yao's firm denial of the project left him somewhat disappointed, yet also filled with curiosity.
Lu Yao narrowed her eyes slightly.
"The land you mentioned was once called Scarlet Flame Mountain."
Fan Pingwei nodded, "That's right, we've also done our research. It was called Scarlet Flame Mountain about twenty years ago, and then it was gradually leveled. Now, only a tranquil lake to the west remains, called Dream Lake. We're drawn to its beautiful environment and plan to build a high-end lakeside garden villa area there."
Lu Yao sighed, "The problem lies in Dream Lake."
Fan Pingwei carefully recalled the scenes he saw during his investigation.
He went there in the sweltering summer, and standing by Youmeng Lake, he felt refreshed and cool.
Even the blazing sun overhead suddenly lost its intense heat.
A thin layer of mist often hangs over the lake, grayish-white in color, like a light veil, lingering and never dissipating.
The mist drifted slowly in the gentle breeze, mysterious and beautiful.
Fan Pingwei racked his brains, but couldn't come up with anything amiss. Hesitantly, he asked, "Master, what exactly is the problem with Youmeng Lake? Is there some unknown story behind it?"
"Originally, Crimson Flame Mountain and Dream Lake were inseparable, with the Yin and Yang energies flowing smoothly. But now that Crimson Flame Mountain has been leveled, the Yin energy of Dream Lake has found a way to flow out and is pouring out continuously. Hundreds of years ago, someone died unjustly in Dream Lake, and this resentment and Yin energy will probably nurture many evil things. If one lives there for a long time, at best, one will experience anxiety and depression, and at worst... one's life will be threatened."
【Aaaaaah, help! I took photos by Youmeng Lake last week, and they all looked so creepy! I'm going to find a temple to pray at tomorrow!!】
What happened that led to his wrongful death? Could the anchor explain in detail?
Fan Pingwei understood completely.
In short, that's an ominous place!
He recalled the chilly feeling he had when he stood by the Dream Lake, and upon reflection, it was indeed strange.
Fan Pingwei shuddered and quickly said, "Thank you for your guidance, Master. I understand. I will never touch this project again!"
If Boss Fan isn't going to touch this project, then I won't either.
If you're not going to touch it upstairs, then I won't either.
Are you trying to scam me by touching a hammer?
