Chapter 319: 319 (in the middle of the night)
"Tsk," she said while looking at the pitiful little rabbit, her eyes sparkling with a bright light, and a delicate flower bloomed on the corners of her mouth, her tone gentle, her voice melodious, "It’s really cute the way it’s struggling in death." It looked even cuter when it died than when it was alive.
There was not a hint of pity in her expression.
Instead, her eyes shimmered with excitement.
The color of the blood was truly beautiful.
The young man standing beside her was smiling, his gaze indulgent as he watched her, not finding anything inappropriate about her behavior.
It wasn’t long before the rabbit kicked and gave up the ghost.
"So boring, it died so quickly." Dai Yu said, somewhat disinterested, as she kicked the rabbit’s carcass with her foot.
Her pristine white shoes were immediately stained with fresh red blood.
The young man beside her frowned slightly, pulled Dai Yu aside, and said in a low voice, "Junior sister, that blood is dirty, don’t get your shoes dirty."
"It’s alright," Dai Yu winked playfully at the young man, "After all, if they get dirty, you’ll wash them for me."
The girl in front of him was dressed in simple clothes, her smile innocent and pure. Her eyes, bright and slightly twinkling, gave her an exceptionally clean demeanor like a blank sheet of paper.
The young man stared blankly at her face, his gaze infatuated, forgetting the time for a long while before he came back to his senses and spoke.
"Junior sister, why did you come to the kitchen? This isn’t a place for you. Listen to me, go back quickly. Don’t get yourself smelling of cooking fumes."
In his eyes, Dai Yu was a fairy untainted by the mundane world; how could she set foot in a place like the kitchen?
There was a faint smile on Dai Yu’s delicate face, and she said in a pleasant tone, "Master said that Miss Chu can now have some liquid food, so I came to cook porridge for her."
Upon hearing this, the young man put his arm around Dai Yu’s shoulders and started to push her towards the door, "I can do that for you. You go back, and once it’s ready, you can come to get it."
"Then thank you, senior brother, I’ll go back first." Dai Yu looked back, giving the young man a sweet smile, looking pure and even more like an innocent fairy.
She had been isolated from the world from a young age, and her innate purity was indeed incomparable to ordinary people’s. She would stand out in a crowd at first glance.
The young man stood dumbfounded, watching Dai Yu’s departing figure with a lovesick expression, not coming back to his senses for a long while before heading towards the kitchen.

At the crossroads, it was already four o’clock in the afternoon.
"Charlatan! What nonsense are you spouting? You dare call yourself a master with your Jianghu shaman tricks! To say such things, I won’t let your stand last the day, for cheating people here, and for slandering my husband!" A sharp-tongued, slim woman could not help but slam her hand down and threw the Tarot cards fiercely at Chu Jin’s face!
The woman, about 30 years old, had a slightly sallow complexion, giving off an unhealthy and sickly vibe, but her anger was truly terrifying.
It was clear that she was really angry, her whole body trembling slightly.
Being publicly humiliated, even someone as well-mannered as Chu Jin couldn’t hold back anymore!
Chu Jin stood up, fury in her voice, "Madam, may I ask where I was wrong? You and your husband have been married for 8 years, living as strangers in the same bed. Your relationship has deteriorated so far that he has not only cheated on you but also subjected you to physical abuse. Why do you still cover for such a man? I suggest you divorce him as soon as possible!"
The woman had asked about her marriage, and the cards drawn were the Emperor in reversed position and the Grim Reaper.
A reversed Emperor represents the symbol of male authority, and although the Grim Reaper is in the upright position, it also signifies an irreparable situation, indicating that their marriage had reached its end.
Moreover, the woman’s weak physique and sallow complexion, her dim eyes without light, it was apparent she had no status at home and often suffered grievances.
Already at her age, when sitting down, she did not inquire about good fortune or family but specifically about her marriage. It was evident that there must be problems in her marital life.
Although the Tarot cards revealed some information, Aaron had said that during divination, one must observe the querent carefully. Some insights can be seen more clearly through the querent than through the cards.
Divination is like psychology, seeing the essence through the phenomenon.
"You liar! My husband has been dead for 3 years, and you still insult him. I’ll see to it that your stand is destroyed today, to prevent you from deceiving others here!" With that, the woman made to flip the table and smash the stall.
She was exceptionally agitated.
She and her husband had been married for 8 years, with a loving and respectful relationship. An accident three years ago had left her widowed. She had not managed to move past the grief of losing her husband in those three years, and her health had declined even more.
She’d heard that there was a Chu Master at the crossroads known for being divinely eloquent, and she had come in hopes that the master could guide her out of her predicament. But to her surprise, this master turned out to be nothing but a fraud!
Not only was she spouting nonsense, but she also slandered someone who had passed on—how could this not agitate her?
Upon hearing this, Chu Jin’s complexion turned somewhat pale.
She had not expected that the woman’s husband had already been dead for three years.
She had always been very confident in her divination and deduction skills, yet she had not foreseen this miscalculation.
Just as Chu Jin was uncertain of what to do, a large black dog suddenly charged out from the end of the street. With a ’woof,’ it pounced directly in front of the emotionally agitated woman.
Chu Jin and the young woman both took a few steps back in fright.
The woman was even scared off by the big black dog.
"Jin ge! You’re finally back!" The little loli took hurried steps with her short legs and ran over, throwing herself onto Chu Jin’s thigh.
This sudden force nearly caused Chu Jin to lose her balance and fall to the ground.
Who on earth was this inexplicable child?
Chu Jin’s brow furrowed deeply!
What kind of disreputable people was Chu Jin attracting?
"Jin ge, I really missed you. I thought you were never coming back..." As she spoke, the little loli’s nose soured, and she started crying.
With a mix of snot and tears, she smeared it all over Chu Jin’s clothes.
These days, she had missed Jin ge terribly.
Summer clothes are already thin, and feeling the odd sensation from her clothing, Chu Jin frowned in disgust.
Already a clean freak, dealing with saliva and snot and tears was utterly revolting to her.
Pulling the little loli away, Chu Jin retreated several steps to keep her distance and spoke with some anger, "Can you stop crying? Isn’t it annoying? You’ve made a mess with your snot all over me, it’s filthy!"
It was only a child, posing no real threat to her and she had no intention of dealing with it.
Moreover, she had never seen this child in Chu Jin’s social circle; she probably wasn’t someone important.
The child’s clothing was very ordinary, too, without even a label on it—likely cheap street market fare.
Whose wild child was this?
"Woof!" Blackie sat down next to the little loli, growled at Chu Jin, and then nuzzled the little girl’s head, as if comforting her or conveying some message.
The little loli stared at Chu Jin, her tears nearly overflowing, and said hoarsely, "Jin ge, what’s wrong? Don’t you recognize Pengpeng anymore...?"
Jin ge loved her so much; how could he treat her this way?
Could it be that Jin ge had other Little treasures outside?
And no longer liked her?
No! It couldn’t be! Jin ge was not like that.
"Jin ge, you’re joking with me, right?" The little loli wiped away the tears on her face, squeezed out a slight smile, opened her chubby little arms, and ran towards Chu Jin, wanting to hug her again.
If she kissed Jin ge, he would surely remember her.
Jin ge said her little face smelled so sweet.
Watching the little loli fling herself towards her, Chu Jin’s brows furrowed even more, and she quickly moved her feet to dodge the child.
She did not want to be made filthy by this wild child again!
Seeing her react this way, the little loli’s steps halted, she pouted her lips, and large tears fell down.
"Woof, woof, woof!" Blackie barked angrily at Chu Jin several times, then whimpered as if trying to communicate something, and, biting the little loli’s clothing, pulled her towards the side of the road.
Dogs have the keenest sense of smell; it had long since detected that the person before it was not Chu Jin at all.
