My best friend is living a famine-stricken life; you're going crazy, I'm farming.

Yang Fenglan heard footsteps and assumed it was Shen Yu.

He opened his eyes and saw a strange old woman. He was startled. "Who are you?"

Xu Banxian squinted his sharp little eyes and scanned the room. Shen Yu, worried that the room was too dark for him to see clearly, went to light a bamboo torch.

After surveying the room, Xu Banxian stared at Yang Fenglan and said, "Her forehead is dark and her eyes are bluish-black; she will soon face a bloody disaster."

Yang Fenglan: ?

Where did this charlatan come from?

"Get out," she said weakly.

Xu Banxian ignored her and asked, "Have you been having nightmares a lot lately?"

Yang Fenglan was taken aback.

Even her best friend didn't know about her nightmares, and Shen Yu knew even less. How did this old woman know?

"You're having ghostly dreams." Xu Bantian said with certainty, and before Yang Fenglan could nod in confirmation, she concluded, "There's something evil in your house."

"Evil creature?" Yang Fenglan's lips twitched. "I think you're the evil creature. Your whole family are evil creatures."

“Look, your mother-in-law is starting to talk nonsense,” Xu Banxian said, turning to Shen Yu.

"Please, fortune teller, save her. We have plenty of money," Shen Yu said.

Yang Fenglan looked at Shen Yu in disbelief.

This girl, who used to hate her to death and never said a kind word to her, is now so anxious for her.

Indeed, in relationships, sincerity is the true measure of a person's character.

Yang Fenglan smiled with satisfaction.

Shen Yu: "Don't look at me like that. I'm just afraid you'll die in the house, it'll be bad luck."

"You're so cute when you're being stubborn."

"..." Shen Yu turned her head away from Yang Fenglan.

Logically speaking, the Zhou family had little to do with her, but seeing this woman lying in bed unconscious for so many days made her panic.

She must have been bewitched by evil spirits.

"It's alright, luckily you ran into me." Xu Banxian said confidently, "Young lady, help me search, there must be something evil in this house."

“Okay.” Shen Yu was about to search when she suddenly remembered something and looked at Yang Fenglan, “An evil object? You also said the one I picked up before was an evil object. You didn’t lose it, did you?”

"What is it? You mean that bead? It's been there for a long time..."

"Found it!" Before Yang Fenglan could finish speaking, Xu Banxian reached under the pillow and found a round bead.

"You really didn't lose it!" Shen Yu's expression changed immediately.

She felt that Yang Fenglan had been very good to her during this time. She was willing to give her the money she earned to keep for her, and she made a promise to her that she would leave the Zhou family with a clean record. She would also cook for her every day.

One should repay the kindness received.

But in reality, she was deceiving herself.

For a moment, Shen Yu was filled with mixed emotions and didn't know how to evaluate the matter.

I just feel that my sincerity has been misplaced.

Yang Fenglan was so ashamed she couldn't face anyone. "Xiaoyu, um, I didn't mean to lie to you. I just wanted to prove to you that this... really is an evil thing. Look, I'm the one who's suffering now..."

Shen Yu: ...

"Let's just throw it away." Shen Yu snatched the bead from Xu Banxian's hand, but where could such an eerie thing be thrown away?

Master Xu said, "Give it to me, I'll handle it."

"No!" Yang Fenglan protested.

My system!

No one can take it!

“Your fate is too weak to subdue this thing.”

"You're the one with a short life." She's lived two lives, how could she have a short life?

Waaah... If I wasn't so unlucky, how could I have died so young at thirty...

Yang Fenglan wanted to cry but had no tears.

"It's lost!" Shen Yu said firmly, his hands clasped behind his back.

Then, the fortune teller Xu put the glass bead into his belt and said, "This thing is a burial item that is specially placed in the mouth of the dead. It is an evil object and not something valuable. Why did you pick it up?"
