Inside the coffee shop.
As soon as Jiang Yuan pushed open the door, the bell attached to the door jingled.
Wearing a baseball cap and carrying a cane, Bai Yu was sitting in the most conspicuous spot in the coffee shop.
Upon seeing Jiang Yuan arrive, Bai Yu waved to her.
Jiang Yuan glanced around and saw that apart from the table where Bai Yu was sitting, all the other seats in the coffee shop were empty.
It is clear that Bai Yu has booked the entire coffee shop.
She suddenly realized that they all liked to book out an entire store on a whim.
Thinking about it this way, Jiang Ningyuan's down-to-earth nature is actually quite unique.
"Sit down, what would you like to drink?" Bai Yu asked, pointing to the seat in front of him as Jiang Yuan walked towards him.
"A latte, please." Jiang Yuan didn't stand on ceremony with Bai Yu and looked up at the waiter beside her.
The waiter nodded with a smile, and before leaving, he couldn't help but steal a few glances at Jiang Yuan.
This is Master Jiang!
Who wouldn't be tempted!
Only after the waiter left did Jiang Yuan's gaze fall on Bai Yu.
Although he is old, he is in good spirits and looks very energetic, not at all like an old man.
"You were the assistant who accompanied Jiang Ningyuan to Yan Ge and Liu Yu's wedding ceremony, weren't you?" Bai Yu asked, narrowing her eyes.
Although it looks very different from before, you can still see some similarities from the mold.
"Yes," Jiang Yuan nodded in response.
"I knew it! Even though I'm old, my memory is still pretty good," Bai Yu replied with a kind expression.
"You have a great memory and look very healthy. You're sure to live to be a hundred," Jiang Yuan praised.
“Master Jiang said he can live to be a hundred years old, so this old man is sure I can live to be a hundred years old,” Bai Yu echoed, also happy because of Jiang Yuan’s words about living to be a hundred years old.
He hasn't enjoyed life enough yet and doesn't want to die too soon.
My requirements aren't high; I just want to live to be ninety.
Now that Jiang Yuan says he can live to be a hundred, then he definitely can.
This is incredibly joyous news; anyone would be happy to hear it.
"These are the talismans you wanted, I've packed them all in sets." Jiang Yuan took out the talismans from the transparent bag in her bag and handed them to Bai Yu.
Bai Yu was married nine times and divorced nine times.
He has so many sons and grandsons that he could be described as having a house full of children and grandchildren.
She didn't know exactly how many people needed the talisman, so she prepared one for each of their family members.
When Bai Yu took the talisman, she beamed, "Great, great! Now they don't have to stay up all night in the live stream trying to snatch it. Staying up all night to snatch it is one thing, but the worst part is they still can't get it. Isn't that embarrassing?"
Bai Yu looked utterly humiliated.
"It's my fault. It's too slow for me to draw the talismans by myself."
"It wasn't drawn by me, so it has no power or effect."
Jiang Yuan took the blame upon herself.
It wasn't a talisman she drew herself; it could only be a psychological effect.
But the talismans she drew herself really worked.
She herself did not expect that her viewers would be so short of these talismans.
If she had known earlier, she should have drawn with all her might from the beginning...
Once we've accumulated enough, we'll put it on the shelves.
This way, viewers won't have to wait around hoping to snag a deal, only to find they couldn't get one and had to wait so long for it to be shipped.
Seeing Jiang Yuan take the blame upon herself, Bai Yu's eyes flashed with surprise.
Jiang Yuan now has over 30 million followers on just one platform, and the number of followers is still growing rapidly. Even he asked Jiang Yuan to draw two talismans for him.
Jiang Yuan could easily have done what other top streamers do: shift the blame onto others or throw a tantrum.
But she said that it was her problem that her viewers couldn't get the runes.
I actually started blaming myself because of this...
Thinking of this, Bai Yu's impression of Jiang Yuan improved even more.
“This is a booklet that my friend gave me before he passed away. The movie ‘Prayer’ has already been filmed, and this booklet was left with me. I don’t understand it, so now… I’m giving it to you.” Bai Yu took out a yellowed and tattered booklet from his pocket and handed it to Jiang Yuan, while also glancing at the box that Jiang Yuan had placed to the side.
“The box next to you is the same one I’ve seen at my friend’s place, but I only glanced at it then.”
"At first glance, it felt very uncomfortable, so I didn't look at it carefully again."
"Now that I look at it, that uncomfortable feeling hasn't come back."
Bai Yu continued.
Jiang Yuan followed Bai Yu's gaze and raised an eyebrow.
Xia Yeming said that the person who sold him the hairpin was dead, and Bai Yu said that his friend had passed away...
It seems that the person who sold the hairpin to Xia Yeming was Bai Yu's good friend.
What a small world!
After going around in circles, they finally found their way back to each other in countless ways.
“The things in the box were previously filled with malevolent energy. People who get too close or look at them for too long will be harmed by the malevolent energy and feel uncomfortable. That’s your intuition saving you,” Jiang Yuan explained.
Young people who get close to the box will at most suffer bad luck, as long as they don't spend too much time with it.
If you get older, it can affect your lifespan.
Xia Yeming is lucky, which is why he hasn't encountered any major problems while holding the box for so long. However, if the box continues to stay by his side, it will gradually diminish his luck until it is completely drained. At that point, he will be no different from an ordinary person, and then...
The consequences would be unimaginable.
"I see. It seems my intuition saved my life," Bai Yu said calmly.
"Can I open the booklet and take a look?" Jiang Yuan asked.
“It’s yours now, and you have the right to decide whether to open it or not,” Bai Yu said kindly, squinting his eyes.
"Thank you," Jiang Yuan said gratefully.
Having said that, he opened the booklet.
The booklet was filled with dense text, but this text…
She couldn't understand it.
