“Liu Yong?”
The moment Xing Jiuan spoke, the other party looked over.
This face was even more terrifying than in the photos.
He was so thin that he looked like he was only skin and bones. His eyes were deep, and his lips were cracked. There were even some black spots.
Xing Jiuan turned to look at Lu Zhichen.
“He’s too ugly. I was afraid he would scare you, so I beautified him…” As he spoke, Lu Zhichen’s voice became weaker and weaker.
Xing Jiuan was expressionless.
He was afraid of scaring her with the photos, so he let the real person scare her?
Having had no mental preparation at all, she was really shocked!
Lu Zhichen looked at her nervously.
“21st…”
“Why is he like this?” Xing Jiuan’s voice was dry.
The photos she had found in the past looked completely different from this. Even if he had appeared by chance 10 years ago, even if he was thin, he did not look like this at all.
Not to mention, in the beginning, he was still a little chubby.
“I haven’t found out yet. I’ve asked the doctor to check on him. There’s nothing wrong with his body.”
Xing Jiuan looked at Lu Zhichen a few more times and was comforted upon him seeing her frightened eyes.
Although she had seen more terrifying things, the impact this person gave her was too great. She could not bear it.
Fortunately, Lu Zhichen was good-looking.
That person only looked at Xing Jiuan and did not speak.
“Back then, why did you tell my and Huo Chulan’s fortunes?” Xing Jiuan did not approach him. She stood at the same spot to ask him this.
“This is fate.” The man’s voice was hoarse, as if he had not spoken for a long time.
His eyes were turbid, but they still revealed a look of pity.
“You and her destiny.”
Xing Jiuan smiled. “It’s been so long. How would I know if you’re telling the truth?
“Moreover, it just had to be Huo Chulan.”
“Your destiny lies with hers. You had to trade,” the man continued. “If it weren’t for me, you would have died on the day you were born.”
“Does that mean I still have to thank you?” Xing Jiuan’s voice was mocking.
“I don’t know if what you said is true or not, but your body…” Xing Jiuan looked at him and seemed to have some pity for him. “I heard from Master that the hardest part of fortune-telling is one’s destiny. The thing you can’t do the most is evil. Otherwise, if you end up suffering a backlash, you’ll wish you were dead.
“How many evil deeds have you done to become like this?”
“Huo Chulan, you can’t touch her.” The man did not care about Xing Jiuan’s words at all. Instead, he continued to speak.
Lu Zhichen only watched indifferently and did not interfere.
However, he still had to take note of whether this person was telling the truth.
If Huo Chulan really concerned Xing Jiuan, he would have to think of other ways.
“Did the Huo family find you or did you find them?
“Also, how did you convince the Huo family to believe you?
“Were you the one who helped Huo Chulan in her strange behavior?”
“I don’t know. I don’t know anything.” The man shook his head and said nothing.
Xing Jiuan clenched her fists.
She was not good at interrogating people.
She preferred to act directly if anything was needed to be done.
Be it accepting missions or whatever, she had always been a person of few words.
When it came to things that could be done, she never liked to talk too much.
However, the person before him seemed like he could die at any moment.
This was Lu Zhichen’s territory, and Xing Jiuan did not want to cause him any trouble.
Moreover, she rarely attacked the weak.
The man looked at her and suddenly smiled.
