Chapter 201: 201 Thank You Gift (One More Update)

Hearing the voice by his ear, Song Shiqin cracked a slight smile, his expression quickly reverting to normal, "No, Miss Chu’s divination was very accurate. I wonder if Miss Chu has foreseen anything else? Please, do share with Song,"

His tone remained consistent, revealing no change.

He still didn’t know who her mysterious backer was, so he couldn’t afford to spook them.

"There’s nothing else, I have only seen so much on the cards," Chu Jin shook her head slightly, but in her heart, she was puzzled. If her divination was so accurate, why hadn’t she received the appropriate Faith Value?

Could it be that Song Shiqin had some other secret?

This was truly strange.

Just then, a couple, hand in hand with their young daughter, carrying bags and packages of gifts, made their way directly towards Chu Jin.

They saw a man of exceptional talent sitting in front of the stall.

The husband placed the bags and gifts aside, signaling for his wife and daughter to stand off to the side, and he himself cautiously approached and asked in a low voice, "Master Chu, are you busy?"

Master Chu?

Song Shiqin observed the middle-aged man with an imperceptible glance, a ripple passing through his eyes.

To gain his trust, this person had even arranged a child to act part of the scene.

It was clear that he was well-prepared, as if he knew for certain that Song would visit today.

But Song’s visit was completely impromptu, how could she have known that he would come today?

At that, Chu Jin glanced at the newcomers and spoke indifferently, "Not busy, I’ve just finished divining for this gentleman. If you have any questions, feel free to ask."

Upon hearing this, the man excitedly pulled his wife and daughter forward, "Master Chu, do you remember our family of three?"

Looking at the family standing before her, Chu Jin thought for a long time, then a smile gradually formed at the corner of her mouth, "Is Li Li doing better?"

Li Li was the girl who had lost her spirit.

Song Shiqin’s gaze was attracted to the dimples in her smile, momentarily lowering his guard.

That smile, though not as radiant and unguarded as those in the mobile phone gallery,

But it was clearly heartfelt, a very natural smile.

"Much better, much better!" the middle-aged man nodded hurriedly, "Li Li has fully recovered. We came here today to express our gratitude. If it weren’t for your intervention, our family wouldn’t be here today. You are our benefactor..."

"Master Chu, thank you!" The middle-aged man, along with his wife and daughter, bowed earnestly to Chu Jin.

Seeing this, Chu Jin quickly put the little girl down, rose hastily from her stool, "Uncle, aunty, there’s no need for this. It’s what I should do, and besides, I’ve already been compensated last time."

The middle-aged man picked up the gifts he had placed aside, setting them in front of Chu Jin, "Master Chu, I know you wouldn’t take money, so please accept this small token from my wife and me. It’s nothing valuable, but we hope you will accept it."

Four days earlier, if Master Chu hadn’t come to the rescue, their daughter might already be lost.

They had wanted to come and thank her sooner, but their daughter had just recovered and was still weak, so they delayed their visit for a few days.

They knew these items probably meant little to Master Chu, and that she didn’t lack for anything, but gratitude needed to be expressed. One should know how to repay a debt of gratitude.

They couldn’t be comfortable with accepting Master Chu’s help just because she didn’t need these things.

After all, it was a life at stake.

Or perhaps three lives, for if something had happened to their daughter, the couple would not have been able to go on living either.

Observing the grateful expressions on the faces of the middle-aged couple, Song Shiqin furrowed his brow slightly.

They appeared genuinely moved, not as though they were acting. Could she really know some occult arts?

However, what agents are best at is disguise; perhaps they were temporary actors she found. He could not afford to be careless when national security was at stake.

"Alright, I’ll accept the gifts," Chu Jin nodded slightly, bending down to place the presents by the table, and looked up at the family of three, "A great misfortune that one survives is often a prelude to future blessings. Li Li, study hard, and you will surely become a pillar of the nation."

She saw strands of auspicious energy in the little girl.

In the future, with just a bit more cultivation and a proper guide, they will certainly become quite accomplished.

"Then, thank you for your auspicious words, Master Chu," the middle-aged man said, pulling his daughter along, "Li Li, haven’t you thanked Master Chu yet?"

"Thank you, Master Chu," the little girl bowed politely in gratitude.

Chu Jin’s eyes immediately curved into crescent moons, warmth filling his gaze, twinkling like stars, as he reached out to touch the girl’s head and smiled, "Li Li is so good. You must always listen to your mom and dad, and don’t worry them, understand?"

The little girl nodded obediently, "Okay, I will definitely listen to Mom and Dad."

The middle-aged woman looked on at the scene before her eyes, filled with relief and gratitude.

Seeing the situation turning dire, the little loli quickly stepped forward to block in front of the little girl, raising her adorable little head and cooing, "Jin-ge, I’ve been good too..."

Chu Jin bent down to pinch the little loli’s cheek, playing along, "Yes, yes, yes, Peng-ge is the best."

The little loli turned her head, pointing to her cheek, "Then Jin-ge, give me a kiss."

Chu Jin was amused by the little loli’s antics, leaned in with his red lips and kissed the loli’s cheek.

Song Shiqin watched the interaction between the young and the old, his guard slowly crumbling, as if a feather had lightly brushed over his heart.

After being kissed, the little loli walked satisfactorily to Chu Jin’s side, sending a provocative look to the little girl opposite her.

The little girl gave the little loli a sweet smile and reached out her hand, "Hello, my name is Wang Li Li, can we be friends?"

The little loli took Wang Li Li’s hand and said coolly, "Just call me Peng-ge."

Wang Li Li, being a well-behaved child, sweetly called out, "Hello, Peng-ge."

Being called brother felt pretty good. She found that this child wasn’t as annoying as she had imagined.

The little loli nodded in satisfaction, hands clasped behind her back, speaking like a little leader, "Mhm, very good."

The little loli showed Wang Li Li the first smile of the evening, reaching out to pat her head, but realized that Wang Li Li was a lot taller than her; even on her tiptoes, she couldn’t reach.

Ah, this is so embarrassing!

With no other choice, the little loli patted her on the shoulder instead, repeatedly saying, "Good brother, good brother."

The adults laughed at the children’s behavior, and the middle-aged woman pointed at the little loli and asked, "Master Chu, is this your sister?"

Chu Jin nodded slightly, "Yes."

Meanwhile, the little loli had already hit it off with Wang Li Li and was taking her to the bread, "Let me introduce you, this is Bread, my best friend."

Faced with such a large dog, a hint of fear flashed in Wang Li Li’s eyes, and she involuntarily stepped back a few paces, hiding behind the middle-aged woman.

"Sigh," the little loli sighed theatrically with resignation, "Look at your little ambition."

No wonder she was willing to obediently call her Peng-ge.

The couple thanked Chu Jin once again, and then they began to say goodbye.

"Master Chu, we won’t keep you from your business any longer, goodbye."

Chu Jin nodded slightly, "Goodbye."

As he spoke, it was as if he remembered something, and he pulled out a white cord from his pocket, handing it to the middle-aged man, "Thank you for the gift, uncle. This is for Li Li, to keep her safe if worn on her wrist."

What’s important is it has the power to lock souls and ward off evil.

The middle-aged man accepted the white cord solemnly, bowing slightly to Chu Jin, "Thank you, Master Chu."

"Don’t mention it." Chu Jin stood up and walked them to the corner of the road.

As Chu Jin escorted the couple to the roadside, Song Shiqin was still sitting straight, showing no sign of leaving.

"Uncle," the little loli reached out to poke Song Shiqin’s arm, reminding him, "It’s getting dark. Aren’t you going home for dinner?"

Hearing the soft, childish voice beside him, Song Shiqin quickly regained his composure, looked around, and as the sky gradually darkened, he said in a deep voice, "It is time to head back."
