Live fortune telling: Sending a top star to prison right from the start.

There was a long queue at a small shop in a deep alley.

Wei Gui, who was at the front of the line, rubbed his hands together with a troubled expression, then cautiously looked at Mu Yuanxiao, who was getting the medicine in front of him.

"Dr. Mu, could you please lower the price of this medicine a little? We're having some financial difficulties lately..."

Upon hearing this, Mu Yuanxiao paused in his actions and looked up.

Some people echoed this, saying it should be cheaper.

Mu Yuanxiao frowned and raised his voice in response.

"Everyone, I swear to God, my anti-cancer drug is sold for three thousand a box, which is absolutely at cost price. I haven't made a single penny off you. That was agreed upon back then. If you think it's too expensive now, then I won't sell it to you."

Seeing that Mu Yuanxiao was angry, Lian Guihua quickly spoke up: "Dr. Mu, don't be angry. We'll buy it. Just sell it to us at this price."

After everyone left, Mu Yuanxiao went to the market to buy groceries and then went home to cook lunch.

He plugged the rice cooker in several times, but the light on it would turn on and off. He also tried turning on the light switch next to it, but it didn't turn on either.

The reason was then known.

After hesitating for a moment, he dialed the landlord's number.

The moment the call connected, the landlord's voice almost roared: "Mu Yuanxiao, you haven't paid two months' rent yet, when are you going to pay it!"

Mu Yuanxiao quickly said, "Give me a few more days, and I'll definitely be able to submit it. Could you please turn on the electricity?"

"You better not hand it over, or I'll kick you out."

The lights came on the moment the phone call ended.

Mu Yuanxiao sighed deeply and turned back to the kitchen.

Meanwhile, in the offices of Fang's Enterprises.

Wang Changshan lit a cigarette and gestured to his secretary to pour a glass of water for Lian Gui.

"How are you thinking about it?"

Lian Guihua asked again, "Mr. Wang, if I do as you say, will you supply us with medicine?"

Wang Changshan exhaled a puff of smoke and said, "Of course."

Seeing Wang Changshan's confident expression, Lian Guihua made up her mind: "Okay, Mr. Wang, let's do it."

Watching Lian Guihua leave with satisfaction, Wang Changshan extinguished his cigarette.

"idiot."

……

After lunch, the warm sunlight streamed through the cracks in the window, gently bathing Lu Rou in its warmth.

She was so captivated by the pleasant atmosphere that she began to feel slightly sleepy.

She slowly got up, deftly tidied the bed, and drew the curtains, instantly darkening the room and creating a tranquil environment suitable for a nap.

Lu Rou changed into her pajamas, lay down on the bed, and slowly closed her eyes.

Soon, even breathing filled the room, and she drifted off into a sweet dream.

In her dream, she seemed to be in a misty fairyland, surrounded by lush ancient trees, the branches of which were laden with fruits that shimmered with strange light.

She strolled through it, her heart filled with peace and tranquility. However, a melodious bell suddenly rang out in this fairyland, breaking the original peace.

A blurry figure shouted, "No matter the cost, I will save you."

The world changed drastically, and then he collapsed in a pool of blood.

"No."

Lu Rou woke up with a start, her forehead covered in fine beads of sweat.

She sat up somewhat dazedly, a trace of dreamlike haze still lingering in her eyes.

The sound seemed to still echo in her ears, and she steadied herself.

Xuanqing Temple?

Bai Wei had mentioned before that the host there had asked her to come find her.

why?

Who is he?

No, her master won't say anything; she has to find the answer herself.

She quickly got out of bed, went to the wardrobe, and picked out a simple yet relaxed suit.

I simply tied my hair into a bun in front of the mirror.

She picked up the handbag on the table and checked its contents; it contained a cell phone, tissues, talismans, and more.

Lu Rou stepped out of her house. The afternoon sun was quite bright. She held up an umbrella and squinted her eyes to adjust to the light.

There weren't many pedestrians on the street, and occasionally a vehicle would speed by, creating a slight gust of wind.

She took a taxi to Xuanqing Temple.

The temple gates were wide open, and two stone lions stood silently guarding the entrance.

As Lu Rou entered the temple, a faint scent of sandalwood wafted towards her, instantly relaxing her mind and body.

In the courtyard, the ground is paved with blue bricks, and several towering ancient cypress trees stand among them, their trunks covered with the marks of time.

She walked slowly through the courtyard and arrived at the main hall. Inside the main hall, the statues were solemn and dignified, and the flickering candlelight illuminated their faces, adding to the mysterious atmosphere.

Based on her intuition, she passed by pedestrians, turned into a corridor, and stood in front of a door, just about to push it open.

It was stopped.

“Master, this is the abbot’s room; you may not go in.”

Looking at his attire, Lu Rou could tell he was from this temple.

"Is your host present?"

Xiao Tong: "The host is still in seclusion and can't be seen."

Lu Rou then asked, "When will you be released from seclusion?"

The child answered earnestly, "I don't know." Then he gestured, "Please leave here, I hope you understand."

Watching Lu Rou leave, Xiao Tong pushed open the door and went inside.

"Host, why isn't she here?"

"not the right time yet."

Lu Rou, who was invisible, overheard their conversation.

Since they don't want to see each other, they certainly don't want to talk about it either; they're just like old rascals!

What do you mean it's not the right time! When would it be the right time?

Lu Rou stormed off in a huff.

The seated abbot opened his eyes at this moment.
