Why Did You Provoke Her? She Can Tell Fortunes!-Chapter 66 - 39: Imprisonment Awaits You

Jing Anjun quickly received news that the person he hired had been locked up in jail.

He laughed in disbelief.

Turning to look at his secretary, his eyes seemed to say:

You better be joking with me.

Unfortunately, the secretary just lowered their head slightly.

Immediately, Jing Anjun acted like he had ADHD, first scratching his head, then crossing his leg over his knee, but he let it down after just a few seconds.

He tried to open his mouth a few times, but each time he opened it, he closed it again.

The secretary couldn’t help but say, "Boss, I heard... this Mu Yunchu is a bit peculiar, could it be that..."

"Impossible!" Jing Anjun waved his hand dismissively.

The secretary thought he didn’t believe in such things.

But in fact, Jing Anjun just thought no one in this world could be more formidable than his own ancestor who often showed up in visions.

Anyway, the conflict between her and Mu Yunchu was definitely established.

Not for those ’treasures’ she hid, but even just for the sake of pride, he couldn’t let her go easily. 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝙚𝔀𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝒐𝒎

The secretary said those people were professionals, so they definitely wouldn’t reveal the existence of Jing Anjun as the employer.

Just as he was pondering his next move, the director reporting to him suddenly burst in.

"Bad news, Chairman Jing!"

"Our clothing brand is having issues!"

Jing Anjun: ???

Just two hours ago, Mu Yunchu welcomed her third fated viewer in the live stream.

He was a young man with a simple buzz cut.

He looked very fresh, and his smile was particularly infectious.

"Hello, host, and everyone watching. My name is Nie Chengyu, and I’m 20 years old this year."

[Hahaha, youth is great. Seeing his smile even makes me feel like my corpse is warming up.]

[But why does this young handsome guy give us the feeling that he’s appearing on a dating show?]

[I declare, he’s my crush of the day!]

...

Nie Chengyu then realized his introduction was a bit too formal, as if he was just short of reporting how many people were in his family.

"So nervous, so nervous."

"I apologize for the awkwardness."

He cleared his throat and subconsciously glanced at the number of viewers in the top right corner, unconsciously sitting up straighter.

So many people were watching him, he couldn’t embarrass himself.

Although he had to admit, being watched by so many people was both nerve-wracking and exciting.

He secretly glanced at Mu Yunchu next to him, feeling a sense of admiration rising in his heart.

To have managed a live stream with so many viewers watching simultaneously was definitely impressive.

Because in his view, there was no distinction of high or low in professions. As long as one did their job to the extreme within the boundaries of the law and morality, it was worthy of respect.

Moreover, Mu Yunchu seemed to be around his age, give or take.

But by comparison, he couldn’t even see his future path clearly...

Mu Yunchu’s voice, like a clear spring, dispersed the trace of melancholy about to rise in his heart.

"Please pay the divination fee."

He took a deep breath, pulled himself together, but his smile seemed slightly more forced than before.

"Alright then."

Quickly swiping his pocket money away.

Mu Yunchu continued to ask, "What would you like to inquire about?"

Just as she suspected, Nie Chengyu did not immediately ask his question but paused to ponder.

[Does the fated one have a girlfriend? If so, based on my experience, your head might be turning green.]

[Not necessarily. It could also be that your roommate is plotting against you. Think back, have you encountered any particularly unlucky incidents recently?]

"Huh?"

Nie Chengyu was thinking seriously, and finally mustered up an idea, when he looked down.

How did the tone of the comments suddenly turn like this?

"Stop joking." Mu Yunchu softly intervened.

[This fated one clearly is a new fan, they don’t even know our inside jokes.]

Nie Chengyu indeed was visiting this live stream for the first time.

But he still answered honestly, "I don’t have a girlfriend."

"Nor have I had any bad luck recently."

[Little handsome guy, don’t mind them. They’re just joking around.]

[Yeah, yeah, don’t take it to heart.]

"I won’t." He wasn’t the type to take such comments seriously.

"Oh, right, host, I remember what I want to inquire about."

"I want to look into my future career."

[??? So career-oriented?]

[If I’m not wrong, you should be in your sophomore year, right?]

Nie Chengyu: "Starting junior year next semester."

[But come to think of it, with the current job market looking grim, planning ahead is a good idea.]

[I have faith in this young man, he’ll surely achieve great things.]

Reading the flattering comments, Nie Chengyu’s expression became slightly nuanced.

In truth, he wasn’t as promising as the viewers thought.

But there were other reasons for this inquiry too.

"Actually, it’s not that, mainly..."

Nie Chengyu’s voice grew quieter until it was no longer audible to others.

"You want to know how the ’path’ your mom is choosing for you will turn out, right?" Mu Yunchu sipped water to soothe her throat.

Looking up, she saw Nie Chengyu almost frozen in place.

She asked the question hidden in his mind that he was too shy to ask directly.

"Yes... that’s right."

Nie Chengyu couldn’t articulate his shock.

He could only mumble a response.

Even his voice seemed to drift away.

He had been quite troubled by this matter recently.

The reason was that his mom had found a promising career path for him based on his major.

He could even land a job at the company after his internship year.

The pay and benefits would be excellent.

"You could say, there are virtually no drawbacks."

But Nie Chengyu felt somewhat conflicted.

[Then what are you hesitating about? Such a great opportunity.]

[Trust your parents, they won’t lead you astray. They’ve experienced much more than you have.]

[I think the fated one’s hesitation must have a reason. Is it that the job isn’t very respectable? After all, there’s a generational gap in views.]

[Why don’t you tell us what the job entails, and we’ll give you some advice. It’s better than bottling it up alone.]

...

Nie Chengyu thought that made sense.

And at that moment, Mu Yunchu’s gaze lightly swept across his face, noticing an unusual dark aura.

She quickly calculated and interrupted his conversation with the viewers.

"Wait a moment."

"Let’s set aside the job for now."

Nie Chengyu: "Hmm?"

"There’s something more important at hand now."

"What..." He was startled by Mu Yunchu’s serious expression.

"You’re about to have a brush with jail."

Nie Chengyu: ???

He wanted to refute, asserting he never did anything illegal, nor did he owe anybody money.

But suddenly, their home door opened, and turning around, he saw his mom struggling to enter with two large bags of stuff.
