Rebirth: The Ascent of a Socialite-Chapter 614 - 247: Her Wedding Draws Near (Part 2)

Su Ziceng was at a loss for an answer. After Yamamoto returned to Japan, he managed several industries including Yellow Love. Why hadn’t he stayed by Qiao Chu’s side but instead taken to Japan by Yamamoto? There surely were some mysteries that had not been unraveled. When Su Ziceng encountered Yamamoto back then, he didn’t know these things either. 𝒻𝓇𝑒𝘦𝘸𝑒𝒷𝓃ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝒸ℴ𝘮

"So, Master Wang, could I take a look at that Life-Swapping Book?" Su Ziceng pleaded, perhaps she could discover some truths from the book.

"Don’t call me Master, Master Wang is my father, and also the name of my teacher. My name is Junior Wang. How could Yamamoto go mad?" Yuhua’s God Stick rummaged through a pile of messy books and pulled out a crumpled book with some mildew spots, made from grass paper, which was just a thin booklet with only a few pages.

What was recorded was also very simple, the so-called life swapping could only work between two people who were closely related by blood and spiritually attuned. The biggest chance of success lies between the same sex, or between mother and daughter, or father and son. The timing of the life swap was also crucial, needing to be at the brink of life and death.

Brink of life and death? The moment Qiao Chu gave birth to Su Ziceng was when she died and Su Ziceng was born. Apparently, the Life Swapping Technique had already begun at that moment.

The first step of life swapping was "life," the second step was "swap," and the third step was "life swapping." Each step involves experiencing life and death, dying before living.

"What does the third step mean?" When Su Ziceng read up to here, she was somewhat confused. The first step should have happened when Qiao Chu died, and the second step when she attempted suicide by cutting her wrists with Red Love. Could there still be a third step? She clearly had already come back to life, so how could there be a third step?

"Back then, neither I nor Yamamoto could understand the book’s meaning. Life swapping is a very draining process, these eyes of mine, and the matter of Yamamoto going mad, are likely related to the life swapping," Yuhua’s God Stick pondered for a while, guessing that Yamamoto’s madness was probably heavily related to the second step, "swap."

"Are you suggesting that each step needs a specific person to handle? One person can’t perform multiple roles?" This was how Su Ziceng understood the meaning of Yuhua’s God Stick.

"That’s for sure. Even my teacher couldn’t manage three steps by himself," Yuhua’s God Stick had often recalled the final step mentioned in the book over the years, "From what I see, life swapping is contrary to natural laws. Even if the first two steps are successful, if the final step is not completed, it probably won’t work. But your mother has already died, and you are living well. Just continue being Miss Su of the Su Family, and let’s leave it at that."

Even Yuhua’s God Stick couldn’t believe Su Ziceng had really died and come back to life. He had lived in Mo City for so long, yet never heard of Miss Su of the Su Family ever having a serious illness or dying.

"Can this really be left as it is?" After this visit to inquire of Yuhua’s God Stick, she had clarified some things, but just some things. The outline of the events had emerged, but the inner texture and patterns remained elusive. The third step, she was certain, had not been completed yet, "life had not been swapped over."

"Maybe this book is just deceiving people," said Yuhua’s God Stick disheartenedly, "In fact, many secret techniques in the Mao Mountain Forbidden Technique are deceptive, how could they be effective."

"It has worked already, I am indeed a jinx that brings misfortune to my parents. You haven’t returned to Mo City for a while, right? The Su Family has already declared bankruptcy, and I am no longer any Miss Su." After saying this indifferently, Su Ziceng got up to leave.

"The Su Family went bankrupt?" Yuhua’s God Stick muttered, he seemed to have heard Su Ziceng mention this word. That’s not right, he had seen Su Qingzhang, whose appearance suggested a very fortunate middle age, only destined to suffer from illness in his old age. It’s one thing for one person’s fate to be uncertain, but now it seems like the fates of a whole group of people had changed, which was definitely not right.

"Not right, not right," Yuhua’s God Stick muttered repeatedly, even dispelling the fatigue from his body.

"Big Brother," Su Ziceng just closed the door as she left, Pello arrived at the door, pushing it open and walking in, knowing that his senior had returned to Mo City this morning.

"Pello, strange things have happened every year, but this year in particular, the chairman of the Su Family, the same Su Family you used to work for, has mysteriously gone bankrupt," prattled Yuhua’s God Stick, sounding like a nagging old man.

While Pello smiled with his mouth, there was not a trace of mirth in his eyes. He certainly knew about the bankruptcy of the Su Family, which he had orchestrated himself. However, it wasn’t necessary to let his worldly detached senior know about these things.

"And the former Miss Su who just left. Ah, it’s not appropriate to call her Miss now. She looks much better than she used to. That girl called Su Ziceng, there’s something off about her too," listening to Yuhua’s God Stick mention Su Ziceng, a smile crept onto Pello’s face, realizing she had just left. Pello felt a bit of regret for not encountering her, but it’s better they didn’t meet to avoid her running away again.

"She’s always been like that, how could she have changed," Pello looked around the messy room, picking up a few books. When he saw the "Life Swapping Technique" carelessly thrown on the floor, he couldn’t help but take a closer look.

"Ah, I just forgot to tell her, her Hónɡluán Star is active lately, it seems a marriage is approaching!" Yuhua’s God Stick slapped his head, remembering the girl had always said he was inaccurate in his predictions, this time he just had to get it right.

"Marriage?" Pello stopped flipping through the books, looking nervously as he asked aloud, "Su Ziceng’s marriage is near, who could the man be? (To be continued.
