Let me see which unlucky person is here to tell fortunes today

The boy was already full of anger, and now being told that his time was up, his inner rage was even greater. However, he could not understand why the woman behind him had such strong grip. No matter how he struggled, the hand that was grabbing his arm and twisting it behind his back did not move at all.

"You bad woman, let me go!"

After all, he is just a child and kind-hearted, so Ji Chu certainly won't make things difficult for him. But Ji Chu also understands that children of this age are too reckless, otherwise, he would not have lost his life.

"Boy, your name is Xing Wei, right?"

Xing Wei was stunned, and then his misunderstanding of Ji Chu deepened: "You even know my name, and you still dare to say that you are not my father's lover!"

Ji Chu didn't care about the other party's misunderstanding. She continued, "Your father's name is Xing Chengzhi, and your mother's name is Luo Yu. Originally, your family of three was quite happy, but a few months ago, your parents suddenly had a big fight. After that, your father began to stay out all night, using the excuse that he was busy with company affairs. Your mother also went out frequently, often coming back in the early morning and leaving early again in the morning."

Xing Wei didn't know why the woman behind him knew so much about his family affairs. While thinking, Ji Chu continued.

"In fact, you don't know whether the problem in your family is caused by your father or your mother. You came to your father's company because you suspected that your father was cheating on you, so you wanted to catch him."

If the woman behind him said the first part because she knew what their family knew, it would not be surprising, but the second part was exactly what he thought in his heart, and Xing Wei had never told anyone.

How did she know?

Realizing that Xing Wei was no longer struggling, Ji Chu let him go.

Although Xing Wei no longer had the initial impulse after being released, the vigilance in his eyes did not relax at all.

"Who are you and how do you know what I'm thinking?"

Ji Chu was wearing a mask, so his expression couldn't be seen clearly: "Don't worry about it, I know it myself."

Although Xing Wei didn't understand the twists and turns between adults, he could see that the woman in front of him had no ill will towards him, and she didn't seem to be his father's lover.

Thinking of his careless words just now, Xing Wei felt a little annoyed, but because he was at that age where he was too proud to be embarrassed, he couldn't bring himself to apologize.

"Why did you sneak here this late at night if you have nothing to do with my dad?"

Ji Chu crossed his arms and said, "We both have truths we want to know."

The question mark in Xing Wei's head became bigger, and at the same time, he subconsciously asked another question that he had long wanted to know.

"Why do you say that my time is coming?"

Ji Chu looked at Xing Wei with a look that seemed to be both pity and helplessness.

In just a few seconds, Xing Wei felt uneasy. He pretended to be calm and said, "If you don't want to tell me, forget it. I don't believe it anyway."

Ji Chu asked back: "If I say that after you died, your mother also died on the same day a year later, would you still not believe it?"

Xing Wei, who had already turned around and walked towards the company, suddenly turned back and said viciously: "You can say it's okay for me, but don't say it about my mother!"

The other party's bad attitude did not annoy Ji Chu at all. Instead, she felt a little relieved: "Do you want to know why your mother has been going out early and coming back late these days?"

Xing Wei was like a roaring puppy just now, but after hearing these words, he calmed down again.

Ji Chu just found it funny. Even though she couldn't read other people's minds, for this little kid in front of her who couldn't hide his thoughts on his face, it was as easy as playing with a dog to manipulate his emotions.

Xing Wei swallowed his saliva, his face flushed red, and after a long while, he asked, "I...my mother..."

Ji Chu pulled him to sit on the bench in the corridor and said slowly: "In fact, you also suspect that your mother cheated, right?"

"But she doesn't, and is working three jobs a day to maintain your family's current expenses."

When one thing was predicted to come true, Xing Wei thought it might be a coincidence, but when it was predicted to come true again and again, he had completely trusted the strange woman in front of him.

He asked in disbelief, "My mom works three jobs? Doesn't my dad give her money?"

Ji Chu shrugged: "Why did you come here today? You must also feel strange, right?"

Xing Wei stopped talking.

Ji Chu continued, "You guessed right. Your father did keep a mistress outside. He was obsessed with this woman. Not only did he hand over the company to her, but he also didn't give your mother a penny of the money he earned."

“That’s why they had such a big fight.”

"That fight was because your mom didn't believe your dad when he said the company couldn't make ends meet. She went to the company and took a look. She found that not only was the company not struggling, but it was even doing better than before."

"Your mom asked your dad where he took the money. No matter how difficult it was, he couldn't not give money for family expenses. But your dad wouldn't tell her. He even threatened that if he didn't have the money, he would divorce her!"

Xing Wei's eyes were red, and his hands on his knees were clenched into fists.

"So during this period, my school tuition, daily expenses, and various interest classes were all paid for by my mom's part-time job?"

Ji Chu sighed and nodded.

Xing Wei grabbed Ji Chu's arm and asked with a sob, "Why doesn't my mother get a divorce? As a woman who has been a housewife for more than 20 years, doesn't she know how difficult it is to return to the workplace?"

Ji Chu patted the back of Xing Wei's hand and said, "Your mother wants to wait until you graduate from high school. She is afraid that her divorce from your father will affect you."

Xing Wei covered his face and said, "How could I not notice it? The atmosphere at home is so weird. It's better to get a divorce. This way, she can get half of the property."

Ji Chu sighed: "I can't share it."

Xing looked up fiercely: "What do you mean?"

Ji Chu: "Your father has been transferring his property for a few months. Now everything under his name is in the hands of his mistress. He even offers himself a monthly salary of just over 2000 yuan, the local minimum monthly salary."

"If your parents divorce, your mother can only get 1 yuan at most."

"Even your house is under the name of the mistress."

Xing Wei never thought that his father would be so cruel. He felt as if all his energy had been drained away and leaned weakly against the wall behind him.

"My dad...why did he do this?"

Ji Chu: "This is the truth I came here to find today."

The dark corridor was silent for a long time before Xing Wei slowly accepted the reality. He asked, "What did you mean when you said my time is up?"

Ji Chu: "That was a cloud of death hanging over your head. Now that you know your mother's good intentions, the death is slowly dissipating. Are you sure you still want to know? You will feel guilty."

Xing Wei: "You said my mother would die on the same day one year later. Is it because of my death? If so, I want to know!"
