Chapter 3: A Close Call



Han Luoluo shook her head. She never interfered with or asked about Xu Xi's private life. She only found out that he had been dumped because Xu Xi himself mentioned it. If Xu Xi hadn't mentioned it, she wouldn't have asked a single question.

She had no idea that Xu Xi was juggling multiple relationships!

Wu Guang walked step by step to Han Luoluo. Impulsiveness had long since replaced reason in his mind. He looked at Han Luoluo as if he were looking at Xu Xi, and he hated her terribly.

He raised the cleaver and slashed at Han Luoluo.

Han Luoluo closed her eyes, her heart pounding in her throat.

Just as the knife was about to fall, a voice rang out: "Luo Luo!"

Han Zhi's heart nearly stopped upon seeing this. Taking advantage of Wu Guang's momentary pause, he pounced on him, pinned him to the ground, swiftly snatched the knife from his hand, and handcuffed his hands to restrict his movement.

Upon seeing her mother, Han Luoluo felt as if she had found a lifeline, and tears streamed down her face.

Still shaken, Han Zhi shakily pulled out his phone, dialed 120, and then called his colleague, giving them his address.

Soon after, the police in charge of the area arrived and took Wu Guang and Xu Xi, the person involved, to the police station.

An ambulance arrived, lifted Han Luoluo, who had lost too much blood, into the vehicle, and took her to a nearby hospital.

Upon arrival at the hospital, she was carried into the emergency room. After two hours of emergency treatment, Han Luoluo was out of danger and transferred to a regular ward.

At the bedside, Han Zhi's face was deathly pale, and even his hands were trembling.

It's unimaginable what would have happened to her daughter if she had arrived a little later or hadn't listened to the little girl.

At this moment, Han Zhi was glad that he had listened to the little girl.

She saved her daughter's life, which also saved her own life, because her daughter was the most important person in her life.

The police station has also received news about Wu Guanghui's attack on people with a knife.

Wu Guang is a cook, thirty years old, from a single-parent family. He is a filial son and works outside, earning eight thousand yuan a month. He sends some of his salary back to his mother.

He could have lived a comfortable life, but five years ago he met Xu Xi online. After they started dating, Wu Guang paid for all of Xu Xi's rent, food, and other necessities.

For Xu Xi's sake, Wu Guang lived frugally, even withholding all the living expenses meant for his elderly mother in the countryside, and spending it all on Xu Xi, hoping that she could marry him after graduation.

Xu Xi comfortably spent Wu Guang's money and met a medical student. The two quickly became lovers two years ago. During this time, Xu Xi even used Wu Guang's money to support him. As graduation approached, Xu Xi wanted to get rid of Wu Guang, this troublesome person, so she proposed breaking up.

Wu Guang tried everything to keep her, even quitting his job to follow Xu Xi every day. He finally discovered that she was cheating on him with several men. During the five years they dated, Xu Xi had dated many boyfriends and had slept with them several times.

Wu Guang felt cheated on and wanted to get back the money he had spent on Xu Xi.

Unexpectedly, Xu Xi dismissed him by saying that he had given it to her voluntarily, not that she had forced him.

Enraged and humiliated, Wu Guang grew increasingly agitated and, drawing his knife, went to the door.

Han Zhi never expected that Xu Xi, who seemed so poised and well-mannered, would be this kind of person.

Most importantly, she went back inside and locked the door, leaving her precious daughter outside. She knew to use heavy objects to block the door, but she never thought of calling the police.

If she hadn't arrived in time, the consequences would have been unimaginable.

The next day, Jiang Yuan's phone screen lit up, displaying a news notification.

Upon clicking, the article reported that Xu, a journalism student at a university, was having affairs with several men at the same time. After the affair was exposed, her boyfriend Wu, who had been saving money to support her studies, went to Xu's residence with a knife. Xu locked her best friend, Han, outside the door, resulting in Han being stabbed three times in the abdomen.

In addition, there is surveillance video showing Han Zhi fighting with Wu Guang and eventually subduing him.

Most of the comments below were cursing Xu Xi, even digging up her family history for eighteen generations.

Upon seeing this news, Jiang Yuan was happy for Han Zhi.

Han Zhi has soft, smooth eyebrows, clear and bright eyes, a straight nose bridge, and full nostrils, which are signs of good fortune.

She was pampered by her family from a young age, and her life after marriage was smooth sailing with a harmonious relationship with her husband. Judging from her children's palace, she has a daughter who was also pampered. However, her children's palace looks dark, which suggests that something bad is going to happen to her daughter.

If Han Zhi hadn't listened to her, the news that broke today wouldn't have been about the boy being subdued, but about her daughter being locked out by her best friend, stabbed more than twenty times, and dying on the spot.

After that, Han Zhi quit his job and became despondent. Later, he went insane because he missed his daughter, and his once happy family was ruined because of this.

Han Zhi treated her to instant noodles, and she gave Han Zhi a heads-up.

This is called having no outstanding debts or obligations.

Just then, a ray of golden light entered Jiang Yuan's body, giving her a refreshing feeling.

Jiang Yuan's eyes lit up.

Merit!

As long as she accumulates merit, her spiritual power will gradually return!

Is there a way to both make money and allow her to accumulate merit?

Just as Jiang Yuan was feeling troubled, she casually swiped her finger up and a live stream popped up.

An old Taoist priest in a robe had sandalwood incense in front of him with the price of one thousand coins per divination. A crowd of people were commenting, respectfully calling him the Purple-Robed Celestial Master and begging him to tell their fortunes.

Jiang Yuan's eyes lit up.

She can read people's faces, predict their fortunes, foresee their life and death, and even catch ghosts. Isn't that similar to fortune telling?

Thinking of this, Jiang Yuan quickly searched for the current live streaming traffic platforms on Baidu and finally chose Pingyin from the three major platforms.

I entered the page, registered, filled in my ID card information, and finally chose a name for myself.

Jiang Yuan simply and directly named himself Master Jiang.

The title is also simple and straightforward: Fortune telling, one fortune a thousand.

Then, he put on a mask and a baseball cap, deliberately covering his face, leaving only his dark eyes showing.

The original owner's face was too distinctive, and she preferred to keep a low profile, so she had to cover her face.

When new users register, the platform will distribute traffic.

As soon as Jiang Yuan started her live stream, many netizens joined through traffic support.

But after a while, most of the people left again, and the number of people dropped from eleven to only two or three. These two or three people wanted to see what the girl was up to.

[We can't even see their faces, what on earth is going on?]

Exactly, how ugly must someone be to be afraid to show their true face?

The comments that passed by were all attacking Jiang Yuan for not showing her true face. Jiang Yuan was not angry and patiently replied, "I am a fortune-telling live streamer, one fortune is worth a thousand."

Fortune telling? A thousand per reading? There are only eighty-one fortune tellers flipping through booklets on the overpass outside.

This streamer is so nice; they could easily rob you, but they still give you a fortune reading.

[A thousand, that's enough to brag about how many crazy Thursdays I could have.]

[The Purple-Robed Celestial Master, a highly respected figure, only offers 1,000 yuan per divination for charity. You, a nobody, dare to offer 1,000 yuan per divination?]
