Chapter 022 Jinjiang First Release

"What?"

Meng Xiangjun's breathing became rapid, her pupils suddenly shrank, her hands nervously pinched the edge of the table, and she looked at the date written on the note in disbelief.

"Today is June 17th, and you said I won't live until June 29th. In other words, I only have less than half a month left to live?"

"Based on your current pulse, that's the case," Bai Mian said gently, "but fate can be changed."

Hearing Bai Mian say this, Meng Xiangjun relaxed instantly. She crossed her legs and showed a trace of disdain in her eyes: "Oh, I understand. It's the same old-fashioned rhetoric again. You want money, right? First you say I have a bloody disaster, and then you let me pay for it myself, right?"

Lame Brother was a little unhappy. He slapped the table and said seriously: "Please be careful with your words. Our little God of Wealth is not that kind of charlatan!"

"Oh, we're singing the same tune, it looks pretty real," Meng Xiangjun admired her manicure nonchalantly, "As expected, you internet celebrities are all for the money, never mind, I'm rich now anyway, just treat it as a good luck, tell me how much you want, I'll let my fiancé pay for it."

Lame Brother leaned his head to look outside the door. The fiancé that Meng Xiangjun mentioned was sitting in the driver's seat of the luxury car outside. He was wearing a pair of sunglasses and exuded an aura that said "keep away from strangers". Lame Brother looked at his chin and felt that he looked familiar.

"Do I know him?" Lame Brother said to himself, "No, I shouldn't. My friends are all poor losers like me..."

Meng Xiangjun burst out laughing and leaned back in her chair. "Come on, the people who want to get close to my fiancé are lined up two miles away. I advise you to just tell me if you want money. I'm not against giving it to you. Why put on such a show? It's a pity. I thought I had met a real master."

"Except for the ten yuan consultation fee, I won't charge you anything more," Bai Mian said seriously, "The only person who can resolve your fate is you."

Hearing Bai Mian say this, Meng Xiangjun changed his previous careless attitude, sat up straight, and began to look at Bai Mian:

"Then tell me, what caused my death?"

"My pulse shows that you will drown on June 20th." Bai Mian said this word by word.

Meng Xiangjun took a deep breath, "The 20th, only three days left? The 20th... Yes, I'm going out that day. I made an appointment with my ex-boyfriend's mother to go boating on the lake. Could I have an accident while boating on the lake? That's terrible. Fortunately, I knew about it in advance. I'll tell her later that we won't go boating on the lake, let's watch a movie instead!"

Lame brother couldn't help but complain: "You are about to get married, and you are still traveling with your ex-boyfriend's family. This is too outrageous."

After Lame Brother finished speaking, Meng Xiangjun's face changed. She asked back, "What do you know? Do you know the inside story? I went out with my ex-boyfriend's mother because that day was my ex-boyfriend's death anniversary!"

As soon as these words were spoken, the store was filled with voices of doubt. Everyone became curious about the story behind Meng Xiangjun. Meng Xiangjun did not let everyone down and lit a thin cigarette and started talking.

"Speaking of my ex-boyfriend Qi Yuanhai, I actually didn't love him, but he pursued me for many years and stayed with me for many years. I guess what we had was friendship."

"To be frank, I know I'm pretty. I've had many suitors since I was a kid, and Qi Yuanhai was the most persistent one among them. From elementary school to college, he kept writing love letters to me. I threw one, and he wrote one. In the end, I couldn't resist his pestering, so I became friends with him."

"I rejected him directly. I told him that I would definitely find a rich husband in the future and would never find a boy from an ordinary family like him. But he refused to listen and kept chasing me. I had no choice."

Lame brother interrupted: "Since you despise him so much, why did he become your boyfriend later?"

Meng Xiangjun rolled her eyes: "Why are you so anxious? I'm almost there!"

"He and I were admitted to the same university, and we were friends for four years. When we graduated, he kept having migraines, and later went to the hospital for a checkup. He was diagnosed with advanced brain cancer, and the doctor said he would not live for more than six months."

"On the day he found out the result, he came to me with the test report and begged me to be his girlfriend. He said this was his last wish and that if he couldn't be with me while he was alive, he would die with regret."

"Although I don't like him at all, I have known him for so many years and there is always some affection between us. People are all made of flesh and blood, so I softened my heart and agreed to his request."

"Later, I accompanied him to the hospital for treatment and got to know his mother. It was then that I realized that he was from a single-parent family. His father had passed away a long time ago, and his mother raised him alone."

"He underwent several chemotherapy treatments in the hospital, but they didn't seem to work. He became thinner and thinner until he was just skin and bones. We could all see that he didn't have much time left."

"After the last chemotherapy, he told me that the three months he spent with me were the happiest time of his life, but he was still not satisfied. He suddenly made an excessive request to me - he hoped that I would get married with him!"

When Meng Xiangjun said this, her tone suddenly changed: "Tell me, isn't this a joke? I was with him only because I felt sorry for him. Why should I go through another marriage experience just for him?"

Meng Xiangjun looked back at the crowd, and everyone nodded in agreement. She then continued with satisfaction: "Anyway, I rejected this request, and he was very disappointed. Then he made another last wish - he hoped that I could spend more time with his mother after he died. I agreed. After all, his mother would live alone in this world in the future, which was quite pitiful."

"I left the hospital later, and Qi Yuanhai passed away not long after. I didn't get to see him for the last time. Later, I made an agreement with Qi Yuanhai's mother Du Li that I would spend every year with her on Qi Yuanhai's anniversary. This year is his first anniversary, and I can't break my promise."

Meng Xiangjun blew out a smoke ring and looked at Lame Brother with a raised eyebrow: "Now, do you know why I want to go on a trip with my ex-boyfriend's family?"

Lame Brother clasped his fists repeatedly, with a look of admiration on his face: "The heroine is righteous, it's me who is narrow-minded!"

The cigarette was almost burned out, Meng Xiangjun put it out and said with some emotion:

"At the time, I just thought that he was going to die, so I helped him once. Who knew that this experience would bring me trouble? After he passed away, I started to meet new boys. Some of them were good in all aspects, and we were interested in each other. But when they heard that my ex-boyfriend died of a terminal illness, they all avoided me like the plague, probably because they thought it was unlucky."

"Some people even said that I was a jinx. What era is this? Why do people still believe in this?" Meng Xiangjun said indignantly, "What dynasty did this old zombie come from?"

Lame brother comforted him: "Men with strong lives won't be afraid of these things. They are afraid because they are weak."

Meng Xiangjun was amused: "Yes! A bunch of wimps! God let me miss them because there were better ones waiting for me. Just when I was worried about finding a boyfriend, a destiny fell from the sky——"

"My car was parked in the parking lot that day and a car that came later scratched the paint off it. I was about to get angry when I suddenly noticed that the owner of the car that scratched my car was a young guy. He had a good temperament and drove a very luxurious car. I immediately became interested and added him on WeChat to get to know him better."

"I guessed right. He was single and his family was very rich. He confessed his love to me not long after we met. After knowing about my ex-boyfriend, he didn't care at all and treated me like a baby. We were in love for half a year and he proposed to me. Everything went smoothly as if it was a miracle."

Meng Xiangjun's voice rose at the end, and it was obvious that talking about her fiancé made her very happy.

"Congratulations," said Lame Brother, "What's your fiancé's name? Why haven't you mentioned his name before?"

Meng Xiangjun leaned back in her chair and said cautiously, "Forget it. We're live streaming now. What if I mention his name and someone with ulterior motives spots me and brings him trouble?"

"Excuse me for a moment," Bai Mian interrupted the casual chat between Meng Xiangjun and Que Ge, "You are the first person I have ever seen who remained so calm after being informed of his death."

Meng Xiangjun spread her hands and said, "What's the big deal? The problem has been solved. You said I would accidentally drown while boating in the lake, so why don't I just not go boating and watch a movie instead?"

"No, I didn't say it was an accident," Bai Mian slowed down his speech, "You were boating on the lake--"

"He was dragged under the water and drowned."
