You said you would tell fortunes, so you can catch ghosts and exterminate zombies easily?

The yellow-haired girl shook off their hands, kicked the chair casually, sat down, crossed her arms, and looked at Su Chen with a snort: "Fortune-telling is superstition, I don't believe in it."

Hearing this, the middle-aged woman smiled at Su Chen awkwardly.

"I'm sorry, my daughter is..."

Middle-aged man: "No upbringing!"

The girl turned her head and glared at him. "You said I have no tutoring? That's perfect. Why would I go to school without tutoring? Can't you just let me learn hairdressing quietly?"

"No," the middle-aged woman frowned, "Chu Chu, your grades were obviously very good before. Mom believes that as long as you study hard, you will definitely be able to get into university."

The girl was annoyed: "You said that was before. High school is different from junior high. I was ranked last in the class. Are you blind? Or didn't you see the report card?"

"Chu Chu, you must not have studied seriously. Mom knows you are very smart. Are you worried about the tuition? Didn't I tell you that Mom can work overtime and the tuition will definitely be no problem."

"Who told you about tuition?"

"I just can't study well. I'm not cut out for it. Why waste that money?"

"You're so rich, send your daughter to school. She's always been in the top three in her grade. She's a genius!"

These sarcastic words made the middle-aged woman's eyes red.

"Chu Chu, Chu Chu, Mommy isn't disgusted with you counting down, Mommy just..."

She lowered her voice: "Mom just doesn't understand, you had good grades before, why..."

Xiang Chuchu's eyes darkened and she pursed her lips.

"If you don't understand, how can I understand it?"

She's devastated too, okay?

I have been a top student since I was a child, so why did my grades plummet after entering high school?

She was clearly still attending classes and studying hard as before, but...

It was as if all the knowledge passed through my head once, and then it was covered with dust and fog, and I couldn't see it clearly or understand it.

She also hated herself for being so bad.

So she studied even harder and reduced her sleep time to three or four hours a day.

What might it be useful for?

Still last.

Not to mention the college entrance examination, now the teachers are disgusted when they see her.

Some classmates even suspected that she got her previous grades by cheating.

For many nights, she climbed to the roof, thinking it was so embarrassing that she might as well jump down and die.

But when she thought of her mother, she backed off again.

After much deliberation, she settled for the second best and skipped school to learn hairdressing.

But my stepsister is a big mouth.

Thinking of her cheap sister whose grades suddenly improved and ranked among the top, Xiang Chuchu couldn't help feeling jealous.

Seeing her mother collapse again, she felt powerless and helpless. She gritted her teeth and said, "Alright, alright, I won't talk to you anymore. You want a fortune-telling, right? I'll just do it, okay?"

The middle-aged woman was surprised and quickly held back her tears.

"but……"

Xiang Chuchu bit her lip and said, "Let me make it clear first. If the fortune tellers all say that I'm not cut out for studying, then you can let me learn how to be a hairdresser."

The middle-aged woman hesitated for a moment, but when she met the girl's slightly angry gaze, she had to compromise.

"Hook!"

The middle-aged woman stretched out her little finger and hooked it with Xiang Chuchu, then turned to look at Su Chen and took out 20 yuan.

He handed over the money and winked at Su Chen.

"Master, you must help us calculate it."

"Chuchu has been very smart since she was a child. Her former class teacher said she would definitely be able to get into university..."

Xiang Chuchu: "Mom, stop nagging!"

"Oh, good."

Su Chen put the money on the table, looked at Xiang Chuchu carefully, frowned, and glanced meaningfully at the middle-aged man standing behind her with no expression.

Judging from his appearance, the middle-aged man is not Chuchu's biological father, he has another daughter.

This should be a reconstituted family.

No wonder he seemed a little impatient with Chuchu.

Thinking of this, Su Chen looked at the middle-aged woman and said, "Give me your daughter's horoscope."

The middle-aged woman nodded, hurriedly rummaged into her bag again, took out a notebook, opened it and handed it to Su Chen.

Su Chen glanced at it and started counting on his fingers.

Seeing this, Xiang Chuchu looked at the book suspiciously. When she saw the three eight characters written on it, she thought of something and her eyes turned red.

She held back her tears and tried to focus on Su Chen's hand.

The fingers are very long and the veins on the back of the hand are a little protruding, but it does not affect the beauty. With such a hand, it must look very good when spinning a pen.

Xiang Chuchu quietly stretched out her hand and spread out her five fingers.

In the past, my parents often asked me to open my hands to show them.

They always say that such slender hands with pointed fingers mean a person is smart.

She lived up to everyone's expectations and did very well in school from the beginning.

It's a pity that her father died before she graduated from elementary school...

"All right!"

Su Chen stopped counting with his fingers.

The middle-aged woman looked at him eagerly: "Master, how is it? Chuchu is a good student, right? She just... just hasn't figured it out yet, right?"

Xiang Chuchu was helpless: "Mom, can you stop deceiving yourself?"

Then he looked at Su Chen: "Don't worry about my mother, just say it directly."

Su Chen nodded.

"Your horoscope indicates fire in the heavenly stems and wood in the earthly branches. Wood and fire are clearly intertwined, so you are indeed a good student."

Xiang Chuchu frowned: "You..."

She turned her head suspiciously to look at the delighted middle-aged woman, then realized belatedly: "Did you two collude in advance?"

Without waiting for the middle-aged woman to answer, she turned to look at the middle-aged man: "Are you coming too?"

Middle-aged man: "You are so rude. What do you mean? I am your father!"

Xiang Chuchu: "My father died a long time ago. If you want to be my father, you can go to the funeral home to cremate him first."

"you……"

"Old Zhou, don't be angry. Chuchu just... can't accept the huge gap in grades. She didn't mean it."

The middle-aged man's expression softened.

"Forget it, she's not even an adult yet, I won't bother with her."

After a pause, he said angrily: "We brought you here because we heard that there is a fortune teller here. Doesn't collusion cost money? Do you think I'm that generous?"

Xiang Chuchu narrowed her eyes: "Really?"

The middle-aged woman waved her hands repeatedly.

"Really not. I can swear on it, even on your dad."

Xiang Chuchu then turned back suspiciously and stared at Su Chen: "So... you are talking nonsense?"

She clenched her fists and said, "Aren't you afraid that I'll destroy your business?"

Su Chen burst out laughing.

"Since you don't believe it, let's not talk about studying for now."

"Five times last month."

"This month, three times."

Su Chen stared at her meaningfully.

"The wind on the rooftop is a bit cold, isn't it?"

The middle-aged woman frowned. "The wind on the rooftop? Master, what do you mean?"

The middle-aged man was also confused.

Xiang Chuchu's heart skipped a beat.

She would wait until they fell asleep before going to the rooftop. In order to avoid being discovered by others, she would close the door and go upstairs very quietly.

How could he know?

Wait, this time...

She thought about it carefully, and then looked at Su Chen in shock.

"you……"

Su Chen: "You have Wenchang in your destiny, which means you will be good at everything, not just school, but also work. So even if you don't work hard, you won't be the last one, not to mention that you have been studying until late at night."

Xiang Chuchu pursed her lips: "But facts speak louder than words."

The test paper will not lie!

"That's because... someone stole your talent."

Xiang Chuchu: “???!!!”

WTF?

Intelligence... can also be stolen?
