"A lie is ultimately a lie. As long as it's a lie, it will be exposed one day," Chi Jiao said helplessly. "At this point, it's useless for us to be conflicted. We can only wait and see. We'll take it one step at a time."
"What if it backfires? Not only will we fail to eliminate my aunt's suspicions, but we'll also expose ourselves?" Xu Ye asked worriedly.
"If we're really that unlucky, then we can only lay our cards on the table with Auntie. Of course, we can't tell her the truth, "Chi Jiao said.
Xu Ye nodded and said, "I understand. Let's do as you say."
"Then, come with me to my shop first. I haven't opened for business in a long time. It's time to take a look at the Divine Divination Hall." Chi Jiao left the room, giving Xu Ye enough time to shower and pack his luggage.
An hour later, Chi Jiao led Xu Ye out of Building 117 and to the Divine Divination Hall.
While Chi Jiao wasn't around, the Divine Divination Hall wasn't closed for business. Instead, the waiters were in charge of looking after the shop. They were also Espers with special abilities, so they could solve ordinary small problems. If they encountered a problem that they couldn't solve, they would contact Chi Jiao, and she would take the time to solve it.
The Divine Divination Hall hadn't encountered any troublesome matters in the past few days. After Chi Jiao arrived, she started to read the fortunes of the customers who happened to come to the Divine Divination Hall today to help them see their futures.
Chi Jiao was busy the entire day. In the evening, when the shop was about to close, a middle-aged couple led a young man into the Divine Divination Hall.
The young man looked very weak. He coughed three times with every step he took, making one worry about his health just by looking at him.
When Xu Ye saw the middle-aged couple supporting the young man over, he lowered his voice and asked, "Jiaojiao, this person seems to be quite sick?"
Although Xu Ye didn't know exactly what the young man's situation was, looking at the young man's condition, his face was too pale. Just looking at him made people worried about his health.
Chi Jiao nodded without hesitation. "He's already terminally ill. There's no hope."
When Xu Ye saw how decisive Chi Jiao was, he couldn't help but feel that the young man in front of him was a little pitiful.
The young man's face was very pale. It wasn't winter yet, but he was wearing thick clothes and a woolen hat on his head. He must have undergone chemotherapy many times, which caused his hair to fall out, so he had to wear a hat to cover it.
The middle-aged couple helped their son sit down in front of Chi Jiao and said politely, "Hello, Master. We're here to look for you today to take a look at our son. We heard that not only do you know how to read fortunes, but you can also break through negative karma and treat illnesses."
The Divine Trigram Hall wasn't just a place for fortune-telling and helping people solve so-called supernatural incidents. Most importantly, their business also included treating some difficult and complicated illnesses.
His attitude was completely different from the politeness of the couple. The young man appeared extremely impatient. "Dad, Mom, have you two become muddle-headed? How could a small shop like this have a way to cure her illness? Hey, aren't you afraid that your family will suffer retribution for swindling people at such a young age? "
"What are you talking about?!" Xu Ye was anxious. He stood up and wanted to argue with the youth.
Even if the young man was sick and in a bad mood, he shouldn't have hurt others!
To think that Xu Ye had thought that this young man was terminally ill and was a little pitiful!
"I'm not wrong. She's so young, so what? She must be a swindler. "As the young man spoke, he didn't forget to roll his eyes at Chi Jiao.
