Chapter 25 (Two-in-one with additional chapters)
As the audience looked expectant about the big news, the wealthy businessman suddenly fell silent for a moment before looking up.
"You think this date of birth isn't mine?"
"I can answer with certainty that it is definitely not." Yu Lanlan remained calm from beginning to end.
The wealthy businessman lowered his eyes. "My adoptive mother told me this birthday. My parents died shortly after I was born, and then my mother's best friend adopted me. That's the birth date registered on my ID card, and I celebrate my birthday every year accordingly. Maybe she got it wrong..."
Unexpectedly, Yu Lanlan asked him meaningfully, "Do you really think so?"
The rich businessman looked angry and wanted to say something, but held it back.
The audience had no idea what they were talking about and was extremely curious.
After a while, the wealthy businessman spoke again: "It's just a birthday. If she remembered it wrong, it's fine. I don't believe in such things anyway."
"It doesn't matter even if the other party borrows your luck?"
"You should have been strong, but you've suffered many setbacks since childhood. You're bright, but you always underperform on exams. As you grow up, you make mistakes at every critical juncture in your life. Your parents should have left you a large inheritance, but now there's very little left..."
As Yu Lanlan spoke, the rich businessman's face gradually darkened.
"Don't talk nonsense! These are my own problems!"
Looking at his angry expression, Yu Lanlan couldn't help but shook her head.
"How could this be your problem? Based on your face, you should have been born into an extremely wealthy family. Although you lost your parents at a young age, your life would have been smooth sailing, with successful studies, career, and a happy love life. But there's a faint black aura on your face that's blocking all of these."
"But the birth date and time you provided has too many taboos, suggesting a fate of bad luck from childhood."
The wealthy businessman quickly grasped the key point.
"You said my face will lead to a happy love life?"
"But it has been intercepted now." Yu Lanlan emphasized.
Upon hearing this, the rich businessman's expression changed drastically, and he was obviously thinking of something that made him very unhappy.
His breathing became heavy and his eyes became more and more fierce.
The audience will be in great anticipation.
【Looking at this performance, the host must have been right! 】
[I'm really curious about what happened. Why don't these two people finish their sentences?]
[This guy always had an attitude of "it's my own problem" when the anchor was talking about other things. Then the anchor said that he should have had a happy relationship, but was interrupted. He immediately got angry, hahahaha]
[Fortune was borrowed√Wife was intercepted×]
The rich businessman was angry for a while, but he still insisted on being stubborn.
"What do these things have to do with my current dizziness and headache? I'm here to see a doctor, not to have my fortune told!"
Seeing his insistence on the attitude of "if you don't believe it, it doesn't exist", Yu Lanlan smiled helplessly.
"Well, let's get back to the point and just address your current question."
She took out three copper coins.
"According to what you said, you must be having trouble in your career. Let me first predict the direction of your career."
The rich businessman seemed to have something else to say, but finally held it back.
Watching Yu Lanlan holding three copper coins in her palm and starting to toss them on the table, she seemed to not need to remember anything specifically. She just took a look and moved on to the next one.
After tossing the coin six times in a row, she took it back, and the answer was already apparent in her expression.
"The hexagram indicates that you've encountered villains and everything is going wrong. Is there a manager in your company who was recommended by someone else? Does he come to you every night with things he can't handle? And he always claims that you are the only one who has the decision-making authority on these matters?"
The rich businessman frowned and nodded.
"Now that you mention it, it does seem like my workload has been increasing since he came a while ago. But he was recommended by a major supplier. I've seen his resume. He graduated from a top foreign university and previously worked for a Fortune 50 company. He must be quite capable. And things at the company have been really complicated lately..."
"Wait! You said I was a villain?"
Yu Lanlan nodded.
"That prestigious university is fake. He did work for a Fortune 50 company on his resume, but he was just a peripheral clerk. So he can't take over your company's recent affairs. He's just been fooling you every time."
"Impossible! I've seen how well he handles things before!"
"How do you know that he didn't bribe other people to pretend to be like that in front of you?"
"So the villain you're talking about is him?"
"No, it was the person who introduced him to you."
"No! He's been working with me for so many years! He even helped me at the most critical moment!"
"He knew your adoptive mother's son even earlier, but he pretended not to know him in front of you. He helped you at the critical moment just to play the long game."
Yu Lanlan ruthlessly exposed the illusion that some people had been pretending for so many years.
The wealthy businessman wanted to express his disbelief as he had before, but certain details in his memory became increasingly clear. For example, the man appeared to be wearing the same pants as him, but he always had a deeper understanding with his adoptive mother and son. At certain times, the two of them always seemed to avoid suspicion and rarely communicated excessively...
Once the seeds of doubt are planted, they will take root and sprout. Moreover, these things may not be noticed by those in the situation, but from the perspective of an outsider, they can be seen clearly...
The rich businessman's face turned dark.
Yu Lanlan also provided him with the quickest solution.
"Replace that manager and find someone more capable?"
"It's not easy to find talented people..." The rich businessman shook his head.
Although he still had doubts on his face, he had already believed in his heart that Yu Lanlan was indeed a very powerful master. Otherwise, how could she have figured out so many things just by using a few coins to tell fortunes?
Yu Lanlan smiled gently.
"According to the hexagram, outstanding talents will soon appear around you, but I don't know if you are willing to keep them."
"What do you mean?" The rich businessman felt that there was something else behind her words.
"What I mean is that you are a very virtuous and tolerant leader. As long as you are serious about recruiting talents, there will naturally be people willing to become your right-hand men."
It was the first time that the rich businessman heard someone say that he was virtuous, capable and tolerant. He did not show it on his face, but he felt very embarrassed in his heart.
"Okay, that's all for today's counseling session. Why don't you go back to the company today and come back tomorrow?"
After hearing what Yu Lanlan said, the rich businessman had no choice but to agree.
However, the audience was still immersed in the information revealed in the live broadcast.
Wait, am I understanding this correctly? This wealthy businessman's adoptive mother swapped her child's birthday with his, affecting his life? And there's also a supplier who's very familiar with the adoptive mother's child and deliberately set him up with a fake talent?
【As for the previous one, I think the same as you! 】
[Wow! This is getting more and more fantastical! Can fate be changed?]
[I have a feeling there's something else going on here! Why doesn't this wealthy businessman ask?]
The audience was already on edge halfway through eating the melon.
Unfortunately, Yu Lanlan ended the live broadcast after seeing the rich businessman off.
-
Yifeng’s live broadcast was also coming to an end.
With Yifeng's guidance, the wealthy businessman surnamed Li finally learned this set of health exercises that Yifeng claimed to be very legendary.
However, the rich businessman looked quite puzzled.
"It seems like this is useless..."
"This set of exercises must be performed every day. After two weeks, the effects will gradually appear..."
"So that's how it is!" The rich businessman nodded.
At this moment, the assistant also called, and the rich businessman transferred the promised medical expenses to Yifeng.
A wealthy businessman whose watch is worth millions will naturally not be stingy in this regard.
After receiving the transfer, Yifeng showed a slightly surprised expression.
"Then I'll trouble you, host. I'll come back tomorrow at the same time."
"Okay." Yifeng sent the wealthy businessman named Li away with a smile.
-
In this second round, it was unclear from the beginning which method was more effective, so the controversy instead turned to the gossip about the wealthy businessman who was assigned to Yu Lanlan.
A special post was set up in the square for this purpose, and those who believed in changing one's fate and those who didn't believed in it were arguing endlessly.
Those who believe it mainly think that Yu Lanlan’s performance was particularly magical the last time, while those who don’t believe it simply don’t believe it.
They originally wanted to extend the battlefield to other platforms, but unfortunately Yifeng did not dare to take it lightly this time and directly ordered Shenshi Live to suppress all news about Yu Lanlan, resulting in the netizens' posts not causing any waves.
-
What everyone didn’t know was that a lot of things happened to the wealthy businessman who left Yu Lanlan’s live broadcast room.
First of all, his adoptive mother, who had been keeping a close eye on him, called him not long after.
"Ayuan? I saw that live broadcast you were on...it was absolutely ridiculous! How could your brother Xuan and I do such a thing? That host is completely out of his mind! He's promoting superstition recklessly. I've already sent someone to report him!"
Hearing his adoptive mother's words as if she had no doubt that he would believe them, the wealthy businessman named Xiao Zhiyuan's eyes darkened.
"No, I think she's quite interesting, so I'll just test how far she can go in making up stories..."
After hearing this, there was silence for a moment.
"Ayuan...you wouldn't really believe something so illogical and baseless, would you? You should know how your mother has treated you since you were little. This idea of changing your fate is completely incomprehensible!"
"Not to mention your brother Xuan! He's been your follower since he was little. Even we aren't as close to him as you are. You should know his character best! How could he do something like that? I think that anchor must have researched you in advance and knew about our relationship, so he made up this nonsense!"
The more the other person talks, the more cumbersome they become.
Xiao Zhiyuan no longer wanted to think about this problem. Another thing was occupying his mind now.
"...I remember that Axue seemed to have spoken to you alone?"
“…”
After a moment of silence, the tone on the other end turned cold.
"Are you doubting me, Xiao Zhiyuan?!"
"I know it's hard for you to accept her leaving, but I honestly know I've never done anything wrong to you! How could you actually choose to trust a complete stranger over your mother who worked so hard to raise you?"
"Xiao Zhiyuan, you disappoint me so much!!"
After saying that, the person on the other end quickly hung up the phone.
Xiao Zhiyuan's expression grew even more gloomy. Yu Lanlan's words kept spinning in his mind.
In order to prevent any mistakes, he immediately mobilized his network of contacts to investigate the information of the manager pointed out by Yu Lanlan. If the other party's academic qualifications were indeed fake, then there would be no need to question other things.
When he returned to the company, he took the special elevator to the president's office and told his secretary not to disclose anything about his work at the company.
Sure enough, after a while, he heard feedback from the secretary that the manager came to look for him, and when he learned that he was not there, he left in a hurry.
The matter has not been settled yet. Once the news about the other party's academic qualifications comes back, everything will be settled.
Xiao Zhiyuan pinched his nose and lay in a chair, just wanting to relax, when he received an unexpected phone call...
-
Time quickly came to the next day.
The live broadcast of the ring started on time, and Yu Lanlan and Yi Feng appeared in front of the audience again.
The two have maintained their own stances from the beginning, and this time is no exception.
This time, there was movement in Yu Lanlan's live broadcast room first.
When Xiao Zhiyuan appeared again, his whole spirit and energy were different.
His pace was obviously much more relaxed, a complete contrast to his previous unenthusiastic attitude towards Yu Lanlan.
"Master! You really are a master! It's amazing! You got everything right!"
"That guy's academic credentials are truly fake! It's a shame my supplier doesn't acknowledge it, but it doesn't matter. It's better for me to cut ties with them sooner rather than later!"
Yu Lanlan smiled knowingly.
"It seems that you have found the talented person you were looking for?"
"Just as you expected! I was a little surprised by this guy's identity, though. He turned out to be my former love rival. He said he happened to see our live broadcast yesterday on his sister's phone, and he wanted to contact me, so I took the opportunity to agree."
Of course, what he didn't say was that he was a little unhappy with the other party's previous behavior and wanted to refuse, but at the critical moment, Yu Lanlan's words "You are a wise and tolerant leader" flashed through his mind, and he seemed to be enlightened and agreed inexplicably.
Xiao Zhiyuan looked at Yu Lanlan with a bit of embarrassment. Seeing her knowing look, he realized that the other party had probably figured it out long ago! That sentence was said deliberately for him to hear!
Ingenious calculation! Nothing more than this!!
Xiao Zhiyuan's heart and mind were filled with admiration.
Of course, he has two other things...
"My adoptive mother..."
Yesterday, Yu Lanlan told him that his adoptive mother had swapped his birth dates with her son's. He originally thought it was nonsense, but after experiencing what happened later, he felt more and more that something was not right with the whole thing.
"This kind of thing can't be done by simply swapping birthdays. There must be someone behind the scenes directing it. But it's okay. I've already prepared talismans to resolve it for you."
Yu Lanlan took out the talisman she had drawn yesterday and invited Xiao Zhiyuan to sit down.
Xiao Zhiyuan suddenly felt a little nervous after sitting down.
"It's okay, close your eyes." Yu Lanlan comforted him, and then just hit the talisman on his forehead. The talisman unexpectedly ignited without wind and turned directly into a strange gray gas, rushing straight to Xiao Zhiyuan's forehead.
After the gray gas hit Xiao Zhiyuan's face, it carried with it a trace of black gas, overflowing from Xiao Zhiyuan's forehead, and then the two collided with each other.
However, because Yu Lanlan deliberately blocked the camera, the audience did not see the process.
This was not as long as the last time when they removed the emotional calamity of Weng Tian's soul. When Yu Lanlan moved away and said that it was healed, not only Xiao Zhiyuan, who had just opened his eyes, was a little dazed, but even the audience was still unable to recover.
[Huh? What did the anchor do? Is this all right?]
【I thought it would be the same as last time! 】
【6】
Xiao Zhiyuan checked himself and found that there seemed to be no changes.
However, out of trust in Yu Lanlan, he did not say much, but instead mentioned another thing that had been bothering him.
"Master, thank you, but I have another thing..."
Yu Lanlan smiled and shook her head to interrupt.
"This relationship was meant to be, but was interrupted by external forces. It's all a false cause and effect. You can't forcefully interfere now. You can only wait and see if there's a chance for a turnaround in the future."
"Can it be turned around?" Xiao Zhiyuan grasped the most crucial word.
Yu Lanlan nodded.
This made Xiao Zhiyuan feel reassured and he immediately laughed.
The comments were all laughing, saying that this rich businessman was indeed a little infatuated.
After getting the answer he wanted, Xiao Zhiyuan completely relaxed.
He was about to say something else when his cell phone rang.
He took out his cell phone and saw that it was his assistant calling. He made an apologetic gesture to Yu Lanlan.
Yu Lanlan gestured for him to do as he pleased.
Xiao Zhiyuan took his cell phone and walked to a place away from the camera and answered the call.
I don’t know what he heard, but he suddenly exuded an air of excitement.
When he hung up the phone and returned to the camera, Xiao Zhiyuan could no longer control himself.
"Master, you're absolutely amazing! My assistant said that a deal that had been unsuccessful at our company was finally secured today by my 'rival'! The contract has already been signed!"
This step can help Xiao Zhiyuan avoid countless detours!
It seems that every word of the master is a wise saying that hits the mark!
"Congratulations!" Yu Lanlan was not surprised.
She also specifically warned, "Switching fate is inherently against heaven's will. Not only will your borrowed fortune return quickly, but the other party will also suffer backlash. You don't have to worry about anything else."
There is another point she didn't say, that is, anyone who helps the other party cover up all this will also receive a lot of karma.
Moreover, the other party may have already known all of this, and if he is narrow-minded, he may have even listed her in the list of enemies.
However, she was never afraid of those people from the Xuanmen who took the evil path. After all, she and they were not on the same path. If they were "destined", they would meet sooner or later.
Xiao Zhiyuan didn't understand the seriousness of it, but he was truly grateful to Yu Lanlan.
"Master, thank you so much!"
"I have no way to repay you, so I can only express my gratitude..." Xiao Zhiyuan handed Yu Lanlan a bank card.
Unexpectedly, Yu Lanlan had no intention of answering the call.
"Just donate it to charity in my name."
Xiao Zhiyuan was puzzled for a moment, but thinking that the master must have his own intentions, he quickly agreed.
Finally, Yu Lanlan announced the end of this evacuation and the platform staff came to collect data.
-
On the other hand, Yifeng’s live broadcast room was also quite harmonious.
The wealthy businessman surnamed Li followed Yifeng and implemented his instructions in every move.
But after doing all these movements, he still felt a little weird.
"Host, is there any way to speed up the process? After I trained with you here yesterday, I was still the same as before. I couldn't even sleep anymore..."
"Can't sleep anymore?" Yifeng frowned.
In theory, this set of movements can soothe the other person's mood and help them sleep well at night.
When the platform announced the second level, he deliberately did not go on the live broadcast in order to delay time. Later, he asked someone to learn this set of health exercises for him.
Unfortunately, he is currently broadcasting live and cannot interrupt to consult the master who taught him.
So Yifeng had no choice but to go ahead with it.
"Maybe the jump time is too short. Let's try doubling the time this time."
The wealthy businessman surnamed Li always felt that this situation did not seem good, but since it was already on the live broadcast, he could only do what the anchor said.
It was okay for once, and it was acceptable for a wealthy businessman who occasionally exercised, but after dancing twice, the originally white and chubby face of the wealthy businessman surnamed Li became congested and he was out of breath.
"No...I can't do it anymore." The wealthy businessman surnamed Li forced himself to complete the last action and waved his hands.
"Thank you for your hard work." Yifeng quickly took the towel handed over by Li Zaiming and handed it to the rich businessman to wipe his face.
The wealthy businessman surnamed Li took it, wiped it on his face casually, then sat on the sofa and finally caught his breath.
Then he looked at his watch.
"I have a meeting today, so I'm leaving now. Come back tomorrow."
Yifeng certainly didn't dare to refuse such a request and nodded in agreement.
So, under Yifeng's gaze, Li Zaiming outside the camera attentively sent the wealthy businessman named Li away.
Only after the live broadcast was announced to be over did Yifeng quickly contact the master who taught him the health exercises.
Unexpectedly, after hearing that he asked the rich businessman to jump one more time, the other party was speechless.
"The key to this exercise is to harmonize your breath. If you ask him to do it more than once, it might backfire..."
"Ah?!" Yifeng didn't expect that he would make such a big mistake. He frowned and no longer had his previous deep temperament.
"What should we do then?"
The master could only answer in agreement: "Wait until the person comes tomorrow, and then you can comfort him and proceed according to the previous progress."
"Oh well."
But for some reason, Yifeng had an inexplicable ominous premonition...
