Rebirth as the Richest Woman in the World
Chapter 524, Scary (First Update)

Chapter 524: 524, Scary (First Update)

The system’s prompt echoed in her mind, signifying that her life had been prolonged once more. It was an incredibly good feeling.

Chu Jin gave a faint smile, and from her backpack, she took out a slip of paper and stuffed it into Chu Tian’s hand, "If you encounter any difficulties in the future that you can’t resolve on your own, you can directly call me with this number."

"Okay," Chu Tian nodded in acknowledgment.

Chu Jin then turned to Chu Songhe and said, "Uncle Chu, superstitious beliefs may or may not be credible. It’s better to believe they do exist than to believe they don’t. Chu Tian is inherently kind, with white and large teeth, sparse eyebrows and beautiful eyes, lips like a drawn bow, and lips as red as vermilion, which all indicate a sign of great wealth and nobility. She is definitely not the broom star others make her out to be. You should cherish her properly, and don’t let others drive a wedge between you and your daughter’s relationship. You’ve already missed out on 17 years."

Chu Jin was aware of what Chu Songhe was worried about, and to prevent any future rifts between father and daughter, she spoke such words. In fact, Chu Tian’s facial features truly were auspicious, just as she had described—a sign of great wealth and nobility.

"Miss Chu can also read faces?" Chu Songhe asked in surprise. Moreover, from the sound of it, she seemed very professional.

Chu Tian immediately replied with a smile, "Dad, I forgot to introduce her to you. Miss Chu is the renowned Master Chu,"

One could tell that Chu Tian had undergone a complete transformation.

Upstairs, Zhou Meilin, watching the three figures, clenched her teeth in frustration. That little wretch really had a big life! She had actually escaped disaster once again!

Master Chu.

These three words in Capital City, it can be said, were very well-known! They had a certain reputation in the wealthy circles, where everyone said that Master Chu’s Tarot card reading was unmatched, accurate in all predictions! She could foresee the future and determine life or death! There were even rumors that Master Chu had been invited to military quarters to exorcise spirits for an officer’s family! Master Chu was quite simply a godlike existence. She herself had gone to that crossroad to look for her several times, but had never caught sight of her.

Although she had long heard that Master Chu was a young girl, she never expected that Master Chu would be so young!

Chu Songhe immediately changed his attitude, speaking very respectfully, "Master Chu, it’s an honor to meet you! I apologize for the poor hospitality earlier."

Just now, he was unaware that Miss Chu was such a significant figure, and to think about how he had spoken to her... It really was embarrassing...

"No harm done," Chu Jin smiled lightly, without saying much.

Chu Songhe then said, "Master Chu, now that you are here, could I trouble you to take a look at the feng shui of our home? I must confess, lately, I have indeed encountered a fair share of problems in my business..."

After listening to Chu Songhe’s words, Chu Jin raised her eyebrows slightly and said, "The feng shui of your home, apart from Chu Tian’s room, doesn’t have any issues. If you want to predict future fortunes, you’ll still need this." With that, she took out a deck of Tarot cards from her backpack.

"This is the Tarot card, right?" Chu Songhe asked somewhat excitedly.

"Yes," Chu Jin nodded, simultaneously spinning the Tarot cards in her hand quickly, standing there to shuffle the deck.

This was the first time Chu Songhe had seen someone handle cards with such skill, and he couldn’t help but widen his eyes in amazement.

Chu Jin spread out the Tarot cards and held them in her hand, looking at Chu Songhe, "All right, please draw one."

"Okay," Chu Songhe nodded and carefully drew a card, then handed it to Chu Jin.

Chu Jin received the card he handed over, glanced at it, and her brow furrowed slightly.

The card was inverted: The Tower.

On the card face: The once grand tower was being struck by a sudden bolt of lightning, causing it to collapse in flames. The golden crown atop the tower was also knocked off by the thunderbolt, suggesting that power, wealth, and achievements were all instantly reduced to nothing in this abrupt change.

The Tower represents destruction, and moreover, two people are falling from it.

This is a very bad card.

Seeing Chu Jin’s expression, Chu Songhe also became somewhat panicked, wiping the sweat from his forehead, "Master Chu?"

"Master Chu?" Just then, a discordant female voice intruded, laced with a hint of sarcasm, "I think ’Miss Chu of the Chu Family’ would be more like it."

The five words ’Miss Chu of the Chu Family’ were loaded with meaning.

In Capital City, who didn’t know the Miss Chu of the Chu Family? Because he also bore the surname Chu, every time he discussed business with those company heads, people would ask Chu Songhe what his relationship was with Miss Chu of the Chu Family! Whether they were relatives or not!

It forced him to explain repeatedly every time that he had no relationship whatsoever with Miss Chu of the Chu Family! It could be said that Miss Chu of the Chu Family indirectly caused him a lot of unnecessary trouble!

Upon hearing this, Chu Songhe immediately looked towards the source of the voice, "Zhi Nan, what do you mean by this?"

The newcomer was Chu Tian’s sister, Chu Zhi Nan.

But Chu Jin had never seen this person before and had no idea why she would harbor such strong animosity toward her.

Chu Zhi Nan affectionately held onto Chu Songhe’s arm and spoke in a sweet tone, "Dad, don’t be fooled by her, she is no Master Chu, she’s clearly Miss Chu of the Chu Family, Chu Jin. In this day and age, the number of impostors is just growing."

Chu Zhi Nan was Zhao Yiling’s good friend. She had heard about Chu Jin from Zhao Yiling before and had also seen Chu Jin a few times. Moreover, she had just come out from her mother’s room and learned the ins and outs of the situation. How could she allow her mother to suffer such indignity in silence!

It seems that she had truly underestimated her younger sister Chu Tian before—she actually had such tricks up her sleeve!

"...Master Chu, this?" Upon hearing this, Chu Songhe looked at Chu Jin in total confusion, somewhat disbelieving the words of Chu Zhi Nan. Based on his recent understanding of Chu Jin, she was a quick thinker with a nimble mind, able to defuse Chu Tian’s crisis in just a few words. How could she be worthless?

And besides, she had a deck of Tarot cards! She couldn’t possibly be Chu Jin, could she?

Chu Jin smiled and nodded slightly, "A rose by any other name would smell as sweet, I am indeed Chu Jin."

"See, she admitted it herself!" Chu Zhi Nan turned to look at Chu Tian and continued, "I say, little sister, how can you associate with such a person! If people saw this, imagine how bad it would look! As the saying goes, ’One takes on the color of one’s company.’

Chu Songhe felt like his entire worldview was being turned upside down! How could this person be that useless individual? And how could the illustrious Master Chu be linked to the infamous waste?

Yet bizarrely, the person in front of him had just admitted she was Chu Jin!

If she was Chu Jin, then she definitely wasn’t the rumored Master Chu!

He hadn’t seen Master Chu with his own eyes; she must be an imposter! Miss Chu of the Chu Family was beyond hope! Not knowing her own limitations, she dared to impersonate Master Chu! He had almost been fooled by her!

Chu Tian turned to look at Chu Zhi Nan and slowly spoke, "Big sister, you’re an educated person, how can you judge people with such prejudice? Haven’t you heard the saying, ’Rumors are fearsome?’ And Ms. Chu is my friend, who I associate with is none of your business to manage."

To Chu Tian, the current Chu Jin was like a beam of sunshine, like a faith! How could she let others defame her light, her faith?

Chu Zhi Nan looked at Chu Tian with some surprise. It seemed that her mother was right—her little sister had become rather different! But that was good in a way, at least that meant her own future would not be so boring!

Miss Chu of the Chu Family was just a joke in Capital City, a well-known good-for-nothing. Chu Songhe would never allow such a person to have any connection with his daughter. If word got out, it would only invite ridicule.

Therefore, Chu Songhe said angrily, "Miss Chu, I advise you! You’re young, so you should engage in fewer deceptive practices. Be careful or the real Master Chu will find out, and she won’t spare you!"

Seeing her father’s misunderstanding, Chu Tian hastened to explain, "Dad, you misunderstood Miss Chu, she really is Master Chu!"

"Come back with me! You’re not allowed to associate with these kinds of people in the future!" Chu Songhe said coldly, pulling Chu Tian towards the house.

Unable to resist him, Chu Tian had no choice but to be forcibly dragged into the house by Chu Songhe, all the while she kept explaining, "Dad, believe me, Miss Chu is Master Chu, I’m not lying..."

These words fell on deaf ears for Chu Songhe, all he could think about was that she was Chu Jin! She was that notorious waste from the Capital City!

And he just so happened to be someone who envied others and valued face; naturally, he couldn’t allow the Chu Family to have contact with such a person.

Chu Jin didn’t mind; she just watched Chu Songhe’s retreating back and slowly spoke, "Uncle Chu, within three days, you will be struck by a bloody disaster. If you wish to avoid this disaster, feel free to come to me anytime." Not only that, but in six days, an even greater disaster awaited him.

"Shut up!" Chu Zhi Nan turned around and said fiercely, "Don’t spread your bewitching nonsense here!"

Chu Jin smiled faintly and leaned in, whispering into Chu Zhi Nan’s ear, "Do you often feel a chill on your back? Do you find inexplicable water stains on your neck? That’s because there’s a hanged ghost on your back, her tongue hanging out long, resting on your neck. By the way, she said her name is Yan Han, she said she died horribly..."

Although her voice was soft and pleasant, it sounded like a death knell in Chu Zhi Nan’s ears, terrifying her.

Chu Zhi Nan screamed, covering her mouth, sweat pouring down as her face instantly turned as white as paper. She pushed Chu Jin away and ran off in a panic!

Because the person Chu Jin mentioned was Yan Han, her dorm room roommate, who had recently hanged herself for some reason!

How did Chu Jin know about this? Could it be that Yan Han’s ghost was really lying on her back?

Chu Jin watched her back and smiled slightly, the corners of her mouth curling into a small arc. She wasn’t trying to scare Chu Zhi Nan; Yan Han’s ghost was indeed lying on her back, full of resentment. Over time, Chu Zhi Nan’s vitality would weaken, and once the three lamps within her body were extinguished, she would completely pass away. This was the so-called ’what goes around comes around.’

When Chu Jin came to the crossroads again, it was already past 4 p.m. Mo Qingyi and the little Lolita were sitting in front of their stall, bored, staring at the passing people. Seeing Chu Jin come over, both of them were very happy and welcomed her. The little Lolita pouted dissatisfiedly, "Jin brother, where did you go? Why are you back just now?"

Mo Qingyi echoed, "Yeah Jin brother, how come you’re only back now? Pengpeng and I were so bored. In the afternoon, there were quite a few people who came for Tarot card readings, but it’s a pity you weren’t here, so I told them to come back tomorrow morning."

"Sister, I already said, you have to call people Peng brother!" The little Lolita raised her head, looking earnestly at Mo Qingyi, "If you forget again next time, Peng brother will ignore you."

Mo Qingyi crouched down, stretched out her hand and pinched her cheek, playfully saying, "Peng brother, Peng brother."

The little Lolita nodded in satisfaction, putting her hands behind her back and pompously said, "Hmm, sister is so good."

Seeing her acting like a little adult, Chu Jin couldn’t help but chuckle, "Alright, alright, it’s getting late, let’s head back. Oh, what do you two want to eat? I’m treating today."

"Spicy crayfish!"

"Hotpot!"

Mo Qingyi and the little Lolita called out in unison.

After speaking, they looked at each other. The little Lolita spoke first, "Sister, adults should give way to children, so let’s go eat crayfish, okay? I tell you, crayfish are super delicious..."

Mo Qingyi raised an eyebrow playfully, looking around and teased, "Kid, where are the kids here?"

The little loli immediately patted her chest and said, "Me, me, Sister, I’m just a kid, so you should let me have my way."

The little loli really craved crayfish, but unfortunately, Daddy wouldn’t let her eat too much, so whenever she got the chance, she would have Chu Jin take her to have crayfish to satisfy her craving.

"You’re already Pengpeng’s girl! Still a kid? Aren’t you ashamed?" Mo Qingyi pinched the little loli’s nose.

"That’s true," the little loli suddenly realized, "then Pengpeng, you can spoil me this once, let’s go have hotpot."

"Silly girl," Mo Qingyi ruffled the little loli’s hair, "I know a restaurant where we can have both hotpot and crayfish. Jin, let’s go there, shall we?"

"Okay," Chu Jin nodded, "let’s hurry up then."

"I’ll call a ride," Mo Qingyi took out his phone from his pocket.

About thirty minutes later, the three of them stopped in front of a very high-end restaurant. ’Shi Yu Xuan’ was quite a distinctive name and considered one of the well-known restaurants in Capital City. It was said that the founder had a very mysterious background, connected to both the legitimate and underworld scenes. Here, as long as you were willing to spend money, you could get anything to eat, even dragon meat.

As soon as the three approached the entrance, a waiter came up to greet them with a formulaic smile and bowed, "Welcome, please come in."

The staff of ’Shi Yu Xuan’ were all professionally trained, with high standards, never judging guests’ spending levels by their appearance or attire.

They provided god-like service to all customers who came through the doors, and this reputation for service from ’Shi Yu Xuan’ was incredibly high. That’s why even those with a medium income would grit their teeth and save up to dine here every couple of months. It wasn’t just to satisfy cravings, but to experience that ultimate noble experience.

The three chose a seat by the window in the main hall, where a pianist nearby was playing beautiful music, creating an elegant and comfortable environment.

After ordering, Mo Qingyi took the little loli to the restroom, leaving Chu Jin sitting there alone. She looked down at her phone with a serious expression, her godlike face perfectly reflected on the glass of the window, her profile as exquisite as jade.

Outside, a black Hummer sped by, stirring up a cloud of dust.

Moments later, the black Hummer made a U-turn and smoothly pulled up in front of ’Shi Yu Xuan.’

A figure emerged from the vehicle, tall and well-built, exuding a sense of oppression and nobility!

Different from the cold, ascetic aura of Mo Zhixuan, and unlike the enchanting beauty of Mo Qianjue.

He radiated a hard man’s authoritarian vibe, strong and resolute!

Clearly, the welcoming staff at the door recognized him, with smiles of admiration and respect unlike their formulaic greetings, "Mr. Song has arrived, I’ll go notify the boss right away."

Song Shiqin raised his hand slightly and lowered his voice, "No need to disturb her, I’m just here for a meal, there’s no need for special treatment on my behalf."

"Understood."

The waiter nodded, cheeks slightly flushed, not daring to look directly at Song Shiqin, who was like a walking hormone, causing hearts to flutter with just his presence.

Song Shiqin walked towards the main hall and paused when he passed by Chu Jin, his breath catching for a moment. However, Chu Jin did not notice him, her attention fully on her phone, apparently texting with someone.

Song Shiqin chose a seat not far from Chu Jin, from where he could see her every move, while from her position, she might not necessarily notice him.
