Upon hearing this, Chu Qianli stared at Tan Muxing quietly.
Tan Muxing faced her in detail. He felt inexplicably stared at and felt uneasy subconsciously.
That's terrible.
He told the truth.
Tan Muxing is different from Qiu Qingkong. He has no enthusiasm for astrology, tarot and other things. He only got involved because Chu Qianli always encouraged him to do so.
In fact, this is how he interacts with Chu Qianli now, following her words and her wishes. He doesn't know how to get along with his new deskmate, so is it okay as long as he doesn't conflict with her?
As the invisible man in the class, Tan Muxing often doesn't know what he has done to offend others, so naturally he is not sure whether his words will anger the other party.
Tan Muxing became nervous under her focused gaze, and he reflexively wanted to apologize: "Yes..."
Chu Qianli exclaimed: "You obviously have nothing to do with metaphysics, but you can make a wrong interpretation!"
Tan Muxing was stunned: "Ah?"
"I guess the meaning of the cast is similar to what you said." Chu Qianli moved the page of the book to reveal the dice underneath, and said calmly, "Because the question was asked in the wrong way, and the dice only look at short-term luck, the information is very vague, which is equivalent to the stars not speaking."
It is generally difficult for astrology dice to provide accurate times and numbers. For example, if you ask for the answer to a math problem, the result will be nothing.
Of course, Xingxing is not good at dealing with subjective issues. For example, she can't even say something like praising Chu Qianli as the best in the world.
Chu Qianli was exposed by him, and she puffed up her cheeks: "Huh, I thought I could fool you."
Seeing that she was not angry, Tan Muxing immediately relaxed and breathed a sigh of relief: "That's great, I thought you were angry..."
Chu Qianli looked at him with one hand on her chin and the other hand on the dice. She asked in confusion, "Why are you angry? If you say you have no interest in astrology, I won't be angry."
Tan Muxing's desire to survive exploded in an instant. He immediately looked away and said guiltily, "No."
"You're lying!" Chu Qianli pointed it out decisively. "If you don't believe me, roll the dice and see what you think."
Tan Muxing's body stiffened when he heard the dice sound. He lowered his head in embarrassment and slowly said the truth: "I'm sorry, I'm really not that interested..."
Qiu Qingkong was surprised: "Huh? But I feel like you listened more seriously than I did!?"
Tan Muxing always listened silently. He remembered the teaching process of the two and occasionally asked curious questions. But now he said he has no interest in astrology.
Chu Qianli: "He has nothing to do with metaphysics in his horoscope, so he definitely has no interest in these things. He must be pretending to believe them."
Although Tan Muxing is not as tough as He Shichen, he is a person who is skeptical of metaphysics. He initially asked her if she "completely listened to the stars", then searched for astrologer Newton in physics class, and then questioned Qiu Qingkong's fortune-telling, but his style is softer.
Tan Muxing's forehead was covered with sweat. He didn't expect that she already knew about this. He confessed weakly: "...I thought you cared about this a lot."
Chu Qianli attached great importance to astrology, but it was very rude of him to say that he did not believe in the evening star.
So, every day he pretended to listen with great interest and showed his support with a good attitude.
"I do care about astrology, but I don't use it as a barrier to making friends." Chu Qianli muttered, "If someone likes astrology, I will talk to them, then I won't quarrel with other astrologers."
If someone said that astrology was feudal and superstitious, Chu Qianli would definitely get angry and refute it on the spot, but she would not force everyone to like astrology.
Chu Qianli did not understand Tan Muxing's fearful state, and explained: "And from the perspective of synastry, it is normal for my friend to have no interest in the occult."
Qiu Qingkong: "What's the angle of the combination?"
"Yes, one is that you have many similar attributes and a lot of common topics to talk about. You may chatter a lot when you meet. For example, your horoscope is like this." Chu Qianli looked at Qiu Qingkong who was facing her, and then she turned her head to look at Tan Muxing and said seriously, "There is another type where the horoscopes are completely opposite but they are also very compatible."
"Humans will subconsciously improve themselves and make up for what they lack or lose. They are easily attracted to people who are completely opposite to them, so the relationship becomes more stable."
Chu Qianli patted Tan Muxing and said casually, "Because I'm too obsessed with astrology, it's normal that you have no interest!"
She had known from the beginning that he was not very interested, and was quite surprised to see him cooperate recently.
Tan Muxing didn't expect her to say that. He was originally panicking, but now he looked stunned.
By the window, Chu Qianli's medium-long hair swayed in the dim light. She still looked calm and nonchalant, as if she didn't take the matter to heart at all.
Whenever she mentioned astrology, her eyes would light up and she would want to talk endlessly about it. She was full of energy and spirit.
She really likes stars.
But now she says it's normal that he has no interest in astrology.
Tan Muxing often wondered why Chu Qianli wanted to be friends with him. Maybe it was because she was new and didn't know anyone, or maybe she needed him to do something unimportant, and maybe after a while she would lose her enthusiasm and become like everyone else in the class.
Without Chu Qianli, Tan Muxing and Qiu Qingkong would have no communication. In fact, he had already prepared himself mentally that his new deskmate might become cold and distant to him if he got to know more people.
After all, there was no reason for anyone to communicate with someone who was not outstanding in appearance and ability, and even he could not think of the necessity for others to be friends with him. Apart from his family background, he had no redeeming qualities and was not even of any use value.
Tan Muxing let Chu Qianli do whatever she wanted, but also felt that she would leave at any time.
But he now had new feelings.
Tan Muxing was silent for a long time. He couldn't describe his feelings at the moment, so he said softly: "Although I can't completely believe in astrology now, I believe in you."
"I don't know how the stars would rate your astrological ability, but since you said it's the best in the world, then it should be the best."
Tan Muxing still had doubts about metaphysics, but he had no doubts about Chu Qianli, or rather, he felt that it was okay to be deceived by her. Whether she was really capable or just exaggerating, he could accept it.
When Chu Qianli heard this, her tail instantly rose to the sky and she raised her chin proudly: "Ah, what you said is no different from believing in astrology. Since I am the best in the world, believing in me is just like believing in the stars..."
"And the most interesting thing about astrology is that no matter whether you believe in it or not, the stars will see through you." Chu Qianli's eyes flickered with a faint smile, "Even those who question and criticize astrology are fulfilling the laws of the stars."
Humans always perceive the world subjectively, but the stars in the sky are objective. Whether you believe in stars or doubt them, you cannot affect the vast starry sky.
Qiu Qingkong was confused and asked, "What does this mean?"
"How should I describe it?" Chu Qianli touched his chin. "To put it simply, this is called the stars predicting your prediction?"
"Or 'you' can refer to the human group."
Qiu Qingkong was deeply shocked and exclaimed: "Although I don't understand it, I feel it is very powerful. I will immediately join the deluxe copywriting package and use these words for promotion in the next round!"
Chu Qianli was stunned: "So people in the material world would think this way after hearing this."
She still remembers discussing this with her grandfather, but his reaction was not like that. No wonder they both couldn't keep their money.
People in cities are much more aware of making money than people in villages.
Although Chu Qianli had no idea about promotion and operation, Qiu Qingkong's strategy soon paid off. At the beginning, they still needed Qiu Qingkong to fish, but soon the word spread from one person to ten, and from ten to a hundred, and the old customers continued to attract new ones, and the number of returning customers was overwhelming.
Qiu Qingkong and Tan Muxing both have multiple jobs. The former is mainly responsible for publicity, operation, and customer base accumulation, while the latter is mainly responsible for art, finance, and sorting out feedback. Chu Qianli can do nothing except taking leeks, and his part-time job is mascot and ghost (?).
Chu Qianli became famous in her class within a week, and even the teachers had heard of her.
During class, the teacher was supervising the students to do their homework. She wandered to the back of the classroom and found Chu Qianli curled up and sleeping. She couldn't help but step forward to remind him: "Okay, stop sleeping, it's time to do the homework."
Tan Muxing looked at the female teacher at a loss, then looked at Chu Qianli hesitantly, not knowing whether he should call his deskmate.
The female teacher looked at the messy desk. She helped clean it up in a good-natured manner. She picked up the playing cards and put them aside. She whispered, "Okay, okay, hurry up and do the questions. Go home and go to bed."
Because there are many children from wealthy families in the school, teachers often find it difficult to manage them. If the children are motivated, it's fine, but if they just want to eat and wait for death, they will be unstoppable.
Chu Qianli squinted her eyes, then shook her head to wake up. She looked at the poker that the teacher had casually opened and said abruptly, "Teacher, don't drink at night. Your luck with love will go away."
"Hey, how do you know I want to..." The female teacher looked around cautiously. She found that everyone else was doing their homework quietly, so she quickly lowered her voice and said, "But I have already made an appointment with my friends."
Chu Qianli: "Your friends will pigeonhole you, don't drink by yourself."
The female teacher was shocked: "No way, it's a pigeon again..."
Not far away, He Shichen looked down at the question. He covered his lips and coughed twice, interrupting the inexplicable guessing session.
The female teacher came back to her senses after hearing the voice. She immediately stopped communicating with Chu Qianli and knocked on the table to remind him, "Okay, stop drinking. Hurry up and finish your questions."
Chu Qianli made a dissatisfied sound, thinking that the teacher had forgotten about this.
Chu Qianli glanced to the side secretly.
Tan Muxing understood the look in her eyes and silently revealed his answer.
Chu Qianli began to copy with satisfaction.
Tan Muxing's eyebrows twitched slightly, and he asked in a low voice: "Why do you insist on copying homework even though you sleep in class?"
Tan Muxing couldn't understand Chu Qianli's mentality. It was not right to say that she was a good student, as she slept and ate all the time in class. It was also not right to say that she was a bad student, as she would just slack off on any assignment no matter how busy she was.
Chu Qianli buried her head in copying: "Not being able to do it is a problem of ability, and whether to copy or not is a problem of attitude. I can be responsible for my own life, but I can't cause trouble for the teacher. I have to fool around with something."
The teacher's failure to receive homework was a setback at work, and there would be a series of difficult incidents in the future. As an astrologer, she would of course choose the best solution and use the method of fooling around.
Tan Muxing felt numb after hearing this. He didn't know whether to say that his deskmate was sensible or really ignorant.
