Suddenly, I bumped into someone's arms. Before I could even curse, I heard a familiar voice say, "I wonder if this master could tell my fortune?"
Shen Wei was slightly taken aback when he heard the voice of the person who came. The person was dressed in white, and his pale but handsome face revealed a wicked smile.
"You, you..."
"What? Master, can't you tell fortunes?" Gu Liyan asked with a squinty smile.
"Uh... sure! Of course!" Shen Wei nodded hurriedly. "What kind of calculation do you want?"
Gu Liyan smiled and took out the Long Sorrow Jade Flute, saying loudly, "If you can figure out my surname, I will give you this jade flute! If you can't, you will become my family's slave!"
As soon as they finished speaking, the people who were about to leave suddenly stopped and looked at the two of them.
"Young master, I see you possess an air of ancient elegance, suggesting you come from a wealthy family. Furthermore, I sense your lingering illness stems from the pain of separation. I guess your surname is Gu, and your given name is Li!" Shen Wei said with a grin. "I wonder if I'm correct?"
Gu Liyan was taken aback, and deliberately looked at him with a surprised expression, saying, "That's right! I am Gu Liyan, and I do come from a wealthy family. However, my father recently passed away from a serious illness, so I have been suffering from a series of chronic diseases."
Shen Wei nodded, looking like a wise man, and said, "As long as you have an open mind, all difficulties will be easily resolved."
"Thank you so much, Master! You are truly a living god! This is my gift, and I hope you will accept it." Gu Liyan said with a joyful expression, placing the long scar into his hand.
Shen Wei said with a forced smile, "You're welcome."
Gu Liyan turned to the crowd and said, "Everyone, this is a living deity! You mustn't miss this!"
"A living deity?"
"I need to calculate my career."
"I want to have my marriage fortune told!"
"My jade bracelet, which has been with me for many years, has gone missing. Can you help me find it?"
"Take your time, don't rush!" Shen Wei hurriedly said, "Hey, hey, don't pull off my clothes—"
Gu Liyan, who had stepped out from the crowd, shook his head upon seeing this and said, "This guy is absolutely stupid!"
Just then, Gu Liyan seemed to see a familiar figure in the crowd. He was stunned and hurriedly chased after him, but when he reached the alley, he found that there was no trace of the person at all.
"Strange, I clearly saw that person... Am I seeing things?" Gu Liyan asked, frowning.
Just as Gu Liyan was about to search further, a hand grabbed his shoulder from behind, and he couldn't help but turn around to look at the person. "How did you get out here?"
"Get the money and get going!" Shen Wei said, clutching a pile of cash.
"Huh? So urgent?" Gu Liyan looked puzzled. He had just spotted someone and was about to go look for them, but Shen Wei grabbed him without saying a word and dragged him into the void to run away. "Hurry up! If we don't leave, I'll have someone eat us alive!"
“But…” Gu Liyan’s gaze caught a familiar figure in the crowd below the clouds. He finally recognized the person and was taken aback…
"Hua Yuxian?!"
