Rebirth as the Richest Woman in the World
Chapter 406 - 405 (second watch of the night)

Chapter 406: 405 (second watch of the night)

The Shen Clan had been deeply rooted in Capital City for many years, and with the previous management by Qin Jie, their connections in Capital City could be said to be extensive. Plus, with the reputation of being a dedicated lover, there were still many people in Capital City who supported him!

Therefore, bringing down a small company at the moment was really just a matter of making a few remarks.

"Prepare a detailed profile of theking for me immediately!"

Shen Lingtian was no fool, and considering that Capital City was a place teeming with hidden dragons and crouching tigers, one must know both the enemy and oneself to be victorious in every battle. He wouldn’t act rashly until he was clear about who was behind theking.

**

At the crossroads.

Chu Jin arrived here early in the morning and sat in front of a simple stall, waiting for the first customer to come.

The crossroads were bustling with people, most of whom cast curious glances at Chu Jin, but very few actually stopped to have their fortunes told.

Because Chu Jin hadn’t been to this place for a long time, the fame of Master Chu was slowly declining. Aside from the regular clients, almost nobody wanted to believe that a young girl could predict the future.

In the "Purple Thunder Space," Zi sighed fittingly, "Chu, oh Chu, I didn’t expect you to have fallen to such an unnoticed state! How about it, do you super regret your past decision? I’ve got some Regret Medicine for sale here, buy one get one free."

The decision Zi was referring to was the last Weibo incident.

Previously, "Chu the Beauty" had been a sensation across the entire internet, and nearly everyone in Capital City knew about her. She had looks and intelligence, and just when "Chu the Beauty" was at the height of her popularity, Chu Jin spent 5% of her Faith Value to buy a "Card of Silence and Tracelessness" in the marketplace, erasing Chu the Beauty’s influence and buzz on Weibo, as well as the memories about her.

That was the real reason why some people, upon seeing Chu Jin, felt she was familiar but couldn’t remember where they had seen her.

If she hadn’t bought the "Card of Silence and Tracelessness," those people would certainly be lining up to have Chu the Beauty divine their fortunes.

That’s why Zi asked her if she regretted her decision.

After all, some people might never get such a chance to rise to fame in their entire lives.

"Thanks, but no need. Gold always shines," Chu Jin slightly raised her eyebrow.

"You women all like to say one thing and mean another," Zi cracked sunflower seeds and said, "Don’t worry, Chu! Who are we kidding, I won’t laugh at you..."

Chu Jin fiddled with the Tarot cards in her hand, "Heh, do you think I’m just an ordinary woman, Zi?"

Zi: "..." Heh, that joke’s so cold.

Chu Jin’s smile faded, and she spoke earnestly, "Keep an eye out for the Shen Clan’s movements these next few days, and remember to let me know if there’s anything unusual."

Knowing Chu Jin’s plan, Zi patted her chest, "Don’t worry, leave it to me."

Zi then asked, "Chu, once you’ve had your revenge for the past life, can we start on that long-term mission?"

"Yes," Chu Jin replied succinctly.

Upon hearing this, Zi immediately became spirited, "That’s great, Chu! I will keep a constant watch on that Shen scum!"

After all, a long-term mission equaled leveling up.

The sun gradually rose from the east, and the temperature was slowly climbing. The intense heat of the sun soon covered the earth.

Fortunately, the crossroads were lined with many tall trees whose shade provided some relief, and Chu Jin didn’t feel too hot.

A summer breeze blew, bringing waves of heat, and Chu Jin was engrossed in chatting with the editor.

"Do you really know how to tell fortunes?"

Chu Jin looked up to see a slim woman with long hair down to her waist standing before her. She was dressed in a lake-blue silk dress, with delicate eyebrows and white teeth, and didn’t seem to be a local from Capital City but rather like a gentle woman who stepped out of the water towns of Jiangnan, with an excellent demeanor that brought a comfortable feeling.

"Please have a seat," Chu Jin put her phone on the table, "What would you like to know?"

The woman leaned forward to sit down, taking off an emerald ring from her finger. Under the sunlight, the ring flashed a green light, clearly a top-quality imperial green, very precious. Yet the woman seemed indifferent to its value, casually placing it on the table, with no trace of heartache in her eyes. Her fingers were long and fair, coated with light blue nail polish, hands that bespoke a pampered life.

Her features were stunning, and she sat with exceptional grace and elegance that was pleasing to the eye, naturally exuding an air of nobility that revealed her high birth and upbringing.

"I... I might be sick..." The woman’s voice sounded somewhat downhearted as she brushed a lock of hair behind her ear, revealing a faint, inexplicable smile.

As Chu Jin shuffled the cards, she asked, "Have you been to a hospital?"

The woman didn’t seem to have any illness judging by her appearance; there wasn’t the slightest hint of sickness about her. Instead, there was a slight gloominess between her brows.

The woman shook her head, her voice even, her expression tinged with sorrow, "I have a very serious disease, incurable."

Chu Jin looked up at her, "In this world, there is a counterbalance for everything, no bridge that cannot be crossed, and no river that cannot be forded. Your mindset is most important. I observe that your face has well-defined features, and you’re blessed by your ancestors’ protection. As long as you uphold your initial intentions, you are someone blessed with great fortune and shouldn’t be so pessimistic."
