Chapter 21 Foresight is not necessarily foresight
Luo Huayi's ears were ringing incessantly.
The statue overlooking him in the side hall looked even more ferocious.
Xuan Yunzi's expression was like a video that hadn't loaded properly and was stuck in a lag; "World—"
Even the slow-witted Luo Huayi sensed something was wrong.
"boom--"
The sky above the Taoist temple shattered like glass, collapsing into fragments, and then the entire temple sank into boundless darkness.
Luo Huayi instinctively closed her eyes as she fell.
"A wise teacher?" came Xuan Yunzi's question.
Luo Huayi opened her eyes.
He seemed to have forgotten something.
"What is troubling you?" the old man asked readily.
Luo Huayi shook her head, and after a moment of thought, she spoke, "I just feel that everything has been going wrong lately."
Xuan Yunzi showed a knowing expression, and then he calculated with his fingers.
Luo Huayi turned her head to look at the statue of the God of Slaughter in the side hall, but quickly looked away.
“By the way,” Luo Huayi suddenly interrupted Xuan Yunzi as he was talking, “help me calculate the fortune of another person.”
Xuan Yunzi paused for a moment, then smiled and gestured for him to continue.
Luo Huayi no longer hesitated, "Xin Que."
Xuan Yunzi's expression shifted a few times, "Xin Que?"
......
Luo Huayi stopped in the front yard as she left.
Cheng Zheng was still somewhat puzzled when he saw Luo Huayi go to offer incense.
He knew his boss's personality. Although he would occasionally listen to these so-called masters' unfathomable divinations, he didn't believe in them at heart.
He was somewhat surprised by Luo Huayi's gesture of offering incense when she left today.
Luo Huayi looked at the huge statue sitting on the table in the main hall.
He quickly looked away and casually stuck the incense stick in his hand into the incense burner where the smoke was curling.
Seeing his seemingly indifferent actions, Cheng Zheng knew that he was probably just joining in the fun like the other pilgrims.
"Let's go, Cheng Zheng." Luo Huayi turned and left the Taoist temple.
As Luo Huayi descended the cable car, what echoed in her mind was not Xuan Yunzi's mysterious calculations, but the voice that suddenly became clear in her ears.
Xin Que is...
[Strategist.]
Luo Huayi finally understood the cause and effect.
Xin Que is a conqueror from outside the world who comes to seduce him.
Those events that defy common sense are part of the plot designed to bring the two together.
And myself...
He recalled the unseen signs he had seen about his extraordinary destiny.
Luo Huayi is the protagonist who awakens her own will.
......
Luo Huayi returned to the villa and then let Cheng Zheng leave work as usual.
He followed the scattered clues shown by the voice in his ear to search for his own name and Xin Que's name online.
Sure enough, he found a web novel with terrible data.
There are no ratings, and no one has even commented.
Luo Huayi frowned as she flipped through the novel.
If you don't awaken your own will, will you end up like the mad dog described in this novel, biting people everywhere?
Xin Que was also a victim.
And then there are those male and female supporting characters who speak and act without thinking.
Luo Hua realized that Xin Que's current situation in the Xin family was exactly like the one in the novel, where the father didn't love her, the mother didn't care for her, and the mother was blind and biased.
As a time traveler, it seems normal that Xin Que would repeatedly act against the plot because she refused to accept her fate.
If he were the one who inexplicably transmigrated into a novel character who was miserable to death, he would also flip the table immediately.
Luo Huayi's lips twitched, but she still closed the novel.
This novel has completely lost its reference value.
According to the novel, he would rescue Xin Que from her apartment after a deranged killer broke in, and Xin Que would subsequently fall hopelessly in love with him...
Luo Huayi's brows furrowed more and more tightly.
No wonder, he had no idea why he inexplicably went to that old, run-down neighborhood that day.
It turns out that this was to facilitate the first encounter between the male and female leads in the storyline.
And later on, he always has these crazy ideas about going to places he can't possibly go, which is also his actions being controlled by the plot.
He then recalled how Xin Que had directly blasted the murderer to pieces with boiling oil, and then sneaked into the hospital and strangled the murderer to death on his hospital bed.
She was probably some special person before she traveled through time.
They're either assassins or mercenaries.
Once Luo Huayi's thoughts started to wander, she couldn't help but speculate about Xin Que based on recent events.
Given her elusive style of doing things and her ruthless methods of killing, it is most likely the former.
she......
Luo Huayi suddenly realized that she seemed to have been led astray by the plot again.
He simply doesn't like someone like Xin Que!
Why keep thinking about things related to her?!
Luo Huayi suddenly felt a surge of anger, as if she were being controlled.
Why should his emotions be controlled by the plot?
Putting aside the fact that he was implicated by Xin Que and dragged into the secret room, causing his claustrophobia to flare up, let's just talk about Xin Que's undisguised murderous intent towards him.
Luo Huayi could never like a woman who wanted to kill him at any time.
Luo Huayi grew angrier the more she thought about it.
He fought his way to the top of the Luo family through his own abilities, and these painful and tragic memories are what he has truly endured for more than ten years.
But in that so-called tragic novel, these were merely the backdrop to the love-hate entanglement between herself and Xin Que.
He only mentioned it briefly, with words like, "Luo Huayi had a miserable childhood, so he was inherently indifferent and lacked love."
The light and airy description glosses over Luo Huayi's suffering of more than ten years and more than three thousand days.
A flame of anger rose in Luo Huayi's chest.
He couldn't let himself become like that mad dog in the story, biting Xin Que with lightning accuracy no matter what happened.
He's got brains!
Luo Huayi already has her own career and her own life goals to achieve.
Perhaps they reached the pinnacle of business, or perhaps they navigated the marketplace with great skill, experiencing a spectacular rise before making their exit.
Whether he is alone or finds a soulmate naturally, he doesn't care much.
Luo Huayi only wants her life to be completely written by herself.
"Be in control of yourself."
This is a strong, autonomous, personal will burning within Luo Huayi's soul.
But Luo Huayi didn't notice...
His strong will seemed to be the first time he had ever shown it since childhood.
Like a neatly trimmed lawn, with all the weeds cleared away, only the lush green blades of grass of varying heights, one day, suddenly a tall, independent plant emerges from the verdant expanse.
Luo Huayi's will stood out like an incongruous wildflower or weed amidst the neatly copied lawn.
After figuring out what might happen to her, Luo Huayi went upstairs to rest.
Before turning off the lights, Luo Huayi had already decided what she needed to do next.
He would never allow the plot to bring him and Xin Que together, even if it meant his death.
I just closed my eyes.
Luo Huayi opened her eyes at lightning speed, expressionless.
The image of Xin Que forcibly kissing him in the secret room was as if it were planted in his mind, automatically replaying whenever he closed his eyes.
