Chapter 40: 040 Occupying a divination of 1000 pieces

Chu Jin certainly understood the implication behind Gu Ronghua’s words.

She did indeed overturn the image of the traditional divination masters from China mainland, as a true master usually had white hair, a long beard, and a venerable old man’s appearance that resembled a hermit with celestial bearing.

She looked nothing more than a rebellious teenage girl, just come of age.

Perhaps, in their eyes, she appeared more like a swindler.

Chu Jin slightly curved her lips and said very politely, "You are too kind. I dare not claim to be a master, it’s just some minor skills."

The girl seemed to have a decent psychological quality, for even after such a pointed remark, she could still remain so composed.

A regular swindler would probably have been scared stiff upon hearing the words ’city public security bureau’.

It wasn’t hard to see that this girl was a promising seedling, but what a pity it was that, without the correct guidance, she had strayed onto a crooked path and taken up deceiving people.

Gu Ronghua narrowed her eyes slightly, the corners of her lips curling up slowly, "Is everyone in your line of work as modest as you are? I’ve seen quite a few of your peers during my time working in the city public security bureau, but they weren’t as lucky as you. That’s why people should abide by the law and uphold good conduct, believe in science, and mustn’t engage in crooked ways, doing things that harm others for their own benefit. As they say, the Heavenly Dao has its cycle of karma!" What goes around comes around!

As she spoke, Gu Ronghua’s gaze was fixed sternly on Chu Jin’s forehead, her look piercing as if to see right through her.

Chu Jin remained with her usual indifferent air and didn’t hesitate to meet Gu Ronghua’s sharp gaze head-on.

As their eyes met, Gu Ronghua found no trace of guilt or retreat in the girl’s eyes. Chu Jin’s eyes were as clear as a spring, pure and transparent like those of a child.

"You are right about the Heavenly Dao," Chu Jin said slowly, "after all, we all grew up under the Five-Starred Red Flag, believing in science is only proper. I can see from the kindness between your brows and the righteousness and wisdom within your energy center, as well as the strong scholarly aura in your demeanor, that you must work in the field of education."

Without waiting for Gu Ronghua’s reaction, Chu Jin then bent down to set up a table and stool.

Gu Ronghua was momentarily taken aback, because Chu Jin was right; she had claimed to work at the city public security bureau only to scare Chu Jin.

In fact, her real profession was a junior high school teacher.

A person she was meeting for the first time could discern her profession just from her facial features and behavior?

Had she been investigated beforehand?

Or was it simply a fluke?

Gu Ronghua pursed her lips without changing her expression and was about to object when she saw her mother-in-law looking at Chu Jin with admiration, eagerly saying, "That’s right, that’s right, Master Chu, you’re absolutely correct. Our Ronghua is a teacher,"

Gu Ronghua had rolled her eyes countless times inwardly. This was the very definition of a backer that hinders rather than helps!

Chu Jin smiled and said, "Auntie, ’master’ is too formal, just call me Jin."

"Alright, alright, I won’t stand on ceremony, then." The lady bent over to bring all her big and small packages in front of Chu Jin. "Jin, all these are for you from auntie."

Zi from the Purple Thunder Space saw the items on the ground and immediately her eyes lit up, exclaiming, "Wow! We’re in the money, so much good stuff!"

Chu Jin did not refuse, graciously accepting them and saying, "Thank you, auntie."

"What’s there to thank for? They’re just common things; I hope Jin won’t find them too simple," the lady said with a laugh, waving her hand dismissively.

It was evident that she really liked Chu Jin.

Gu Ronghua watched her mother-in-law, who was as giddy as a fool, and could only shake her head helplessly.

With her mother-in-law acting like this, it was only a matter of time before they would be swindled out of all they had.

She refused to believe that she, a people’s teacher who had received a higher education, could not expose the trickery of a Jianghu shaman.

"Since Master Chu is so impressive, then please do a reading for me as well," Gu Ronghua said as she casually took a seat on the stool opposite Chu Jin.

The aunt quickly chimed in, "Right, right, Jin, give our Ronghua a reading, see if she needs to pay attention to anything lately."

Chu Jin smiled slightly, "All right, I just need to know what you want to inquire about."

As she spoke, she quickly shuffled the cards.

Gu Ronghua said casually, "Just tell me about my past and my future. I’m curious to see what kind of tale this child can spin."

Chu Jin nodded and while swiftly laying out a spread of cards, she spoke indifferently, "A reading costs 1000 yuan; you can pay in cash, or use mobile payment."
