Chapter 653: 655, Silver Hair (second update)

This way.

Jian Yi and Chu Jin were still walking along the street.

Occasionally, when Jian Yi was in high spirits, he would take the initiative to point out the famous sights to Chu Jin.

If he talked, Chu Jin would listen.

If he didn’t talk, Chu Jin did not ask.

In fact, Jian Yi was waiting for Chu Jin to ask him.

After all, it was Chu Jin who was supposed to find ways to attract his attention.

Chu Jin should be trying to get close to him.

But he had waited for a long time, and Chu Jin had not taken the initiative to ask her anything.

Jian Yi looked at her silhouette and frowned slightly.

At this moment, Chu Jin was walking ahead, holding a bunch of trinkets.

Occasionally, when they came across some children, Chu Jin would actively give the trinkets in her hands to these kids.

These children were also very polite, when they received the gifts, they would promptly say, "Thank you, beautiful sister."

In the Superpower World.

Not only adults, but even older children had already defined beauty and ugliness in their minds.

They all had a particularly good impression of beauties.

And now, this beauty was so warm-hearted, giving them toys, so naturally, these children liked Chu Jin even more.

More and more children gathered around Chu Jin.

Their voices, each sweeter than the last.

The way they called her "beautiful sister" nearly made Chu Jin float away.

So, in a short while, Chu Jin’s hands were empty.

"Beautiful sister, we also have gifts for you," one child said, taking out a handful of candy from his pocket and offering it to Chu Jin with both hands.

His eyes were full of innocence.

Their teacher had taught them that good things should be shared.

Especially with someone as beautiful as this sister.

It was clear that the child had taken out all the candy from his pocket, as most children were not willing to share their candy with others.

But this child was willing to give his favorite thing to Chu Jin.

Chu Jin took a piece of candy, peeled off the wrapper, popped it into her mouth, and said with a smile, "So sweet, thank you, little friend."

"Beautiful sister, we also have gifts for you," the rest of the children jumped up, each taking out their favorite things.

Chu Jin, not wanting to disappoint the children, symbolically accepted a bit of each thing.

She liked children a lot.

Being with them made her feel like she had become more than a decade younger herself.

It was as if...

Deep in her memory.

There had once been a very cute child.

She liked to follow her around, calling her "Brother Jin," "Brother Jin."

As Chu Jin was lost in thought, a clear child’s voice interrupted her train of thought.

"Beautiful sister, where do you live? Tell us, and let us be your flower guardians and walk you home."

Chu Jin reached out to pat the child on the head, "Call me Brother Jin, ’beautiful sister’ sounds too effeminate."

"Brother Jin, Brother Jin," the children immediately cooperated with the call.

What should I do?

I’m really starting to like this "beautiful sister" even more.

Jian Yi watched this scene, his brow furrowing tighter and tighter.

This Chu Jin...

She was becoming increasingly incomprehensible.

Someone who could make children like her surely couldn’t be a bad person.

He didn’t know what she really wanted to do.

To say she was a bad person, yet, facing those children, the smile on her face seemed genuine, pure, and bright.

Like a summer flower.

Very dazzling and eye-catching.

To say she was a good person, sometimes her actions were very strange, and it was hard not to be suspicious of her.

Chu Jin didn’t actually let the group of children send her off; she told them each to return to their own homes.

She and Jian Yi continued to walk, and throughout, they didn’t interact much.

Soon, they arrived at Jian Yi’s residence.

"Here we are," Jian Yi pointed to a majestic building.

It was guarded very strictly.

Around it, there were people in uniforms standing guard.

Here.

One could tell at a glance that this was no ordinary place.

"The place is nice." Chu Jin stood at the gate, her eyebrows slightly raised, conveying a somewhat cool demeanor.

Jian Yi subconsciously thought, if this person were a man, she would probably make all the women in the world fall head over heels for her.

It wasn’t just ’nice.’

This was clearly an officer’s home, not just anyone could come in—usually, not even a fly could get in.

An ordinary person would show a shocked expression upon seeing such a building.

But Chu Jin, with a calm demeanor and a clear face, didn’t even show a ripple of emotion.

That was somewhat unbelievable.

Jian Yi narrowed his eyes slightly.

Who exactly was Chu Jin?

How could she be so calm in the face of such a majestic building?

She clearly looked like someone who had seen the world.

This was not like a person with amnesia was supposed to act.

His curiosity was piqued even more.

"Let’s go in," Jian Yi lowered his gaze, suppressing the confusion in his heart, and continued.

Chu Jin, however, turned and sat down on a wicker chair, her tone indifferent, "You go in, I’ll just wait here outside."

"You’re not coming in?" Jian Yi raised his eyebrows slightly, thinking to himself, what is Chu Jin planning now?

How come you’ve reached the door and yet you’re not going in?

"I’m not going in," Chu Jin extended her porcelain white index finger and waved it in front of Jian Yi, declaring with certainty.

Jian Yi himself didn’t like her, and he had an extreme distrust of her.

What if, once she stepped inside, something in his mansion happened to go missing, and she got blamed for it?

Therefore, Chu Jin was firmly determined not to go in.

Jian Yi, somewhat impatiently said, "If you’re not going in, why have you been following me all this way?"

What was Chu Jin up to this time?

Not going in?

If she didn’t go in, where was she going to stay?

Sleep on the streets?

Or was this her new scheme?

This woman was really too cunning!

Even Jian Yi, who had seen much and knew a great deal, had trouble seeing through her.

"Of course I’m following you to get my things," Chu Jin said lazily, leaning on a rattan chair, shielding her eyes from the pouring sunlight, and spoke nonchalantly, "My godfather and godmother prepared things for me, and your people took them away..."

At this point, Chu Jin looked at Jian Yi with slightly squinted eyes, "Could it be... you’re not planning to give them back to me?"

Jian Yi didn’t look like he’d be that stingy, right?

Besides, Little Grey was still in his hands!

She could do without the other things, but Little Grey had to be returned to her, right?

Chu Jin placed her hand on her forehead, looking at Jian Yi through the sunlight.

Those excessively pretty peach-blossom eyes seemed to speak, deeply drawing people in, making escape impossible.

Under the sunlight.

That hand.

White, nearly transparent.

Like the finest White Jade.

Makes one... want to reach out and touch it.

Jian Yi glanced at her, then hurriedly shifted his gaze, "Wait here, I’ll bring it out immediately."

Jian Yi feared that if he kept looking at her, he would be unable to resist handing himself over.

This wouldn’t do.

He couldn’t be seduced by beauty. He had to firmly guard his position in the Superpower World.

He couldn’t provide any opportunity for those with ill-intentions to exploit.

And moreover.

He didn’t believe that after Chu Jin got her things, she would leave directly!

It wasn’t that easy to get access to the military compound.

Would she easily give up that chance?

Unless she was an idiot!

Only then would she leave.

Seeing Jian Yi enter the house.

Chu Jin let out a sigh of relief.

So Jian Yi wasn’t unwilling to return her things.

"You’ve worked hard, Big Brother Jian," Chu Jin said softly, her eyes curving as she called out to Jian Yi’s retreating back.

Now that she had the ability to support herself, there was no need to follow Jian Yi around.

It was not proper for a widow to do so.

It didn’t look good.

She should earn money to support herself.

Once she had enough money, then she could go look for her family and unravel the mystery of her identity.

However, considering her current situation, finding her family smoothly seemed quite difficult.

Her medical skills were excellent.

Yet, ironically, she lacked the ability to heal herself.

Very soon.

Jian Yi came out pulling a small leather suitcase.

Following him was a chubby little fox.

"Ao~" Little Grey, upon seeing Chu Jin, became ecstatically happy like a small dog and came rushing over with its tail wagging.

Chu Jin also obligingly bent down to pet Little Grey’s head and said with a beaming smile, "My doggie son, I never noticed how nice your fur was before, all shiny and glossy. You really are a handsome fox!"

Hearing Chu Jin’s compliment, Little Grey became even more proud, lifting its head high and rubbing itself against her like a child while "Ao Ao" crying out.

Its tail nearly lifted to the sky.

In the past.

The other little animals in the forest would say it was an ugly fox.

Now, finally someone called it handsome.

Of course, Little Grey was happy.

Happy enough to fly.

In the midst of Little Grey’s extreme joy, Chu Jin spoke again, "This fur, this sheen, this density, would make a super cute fox fur scarf! Just so happens I’m missing a scarf."

Oddly, while saying this, Chu Jin was still petting Little Grey, as if she could skin the little fox at any moment.

Little Grey quickly became petrified into a statue.

Its tail stopped wagging.

Its head stopped swaying.

Suddenly as quiet as a chicken.

Jian Yi was somewhat speechless and suddenly felt a bit sorry for this handsome fox, truly blind, to have ended up with such a master.

Jian Yi looked at her, a flicker of doubt crossing the depths of his eyes. Chu Jin’s way of thinking was so peculiar—completely devoid of any logic. Not even a god could guess what she might say next.

Chu Jin patted Little Grey’s head, chuckled, stood up, took the small suitcase from Jian Yi’s hand and said, "Thank you, I’ll be leaving now, goodbye."

"Goodbye," Jian Yi said as well, keeping his remarks brief.

At the same time, he was silently counting down ten numbers in his heart. If nothing unexpected happened, by the time the countdown was done, Chu Jin would definitely find a way to stay.

He had too much experience with this kind of thing.

Every year, there were countless people like Chu Jin trying to get close to him.

But then.

After counting down the ten numbers.

Chu Jin didn’t say another word and instead pulled the suitcase and turned to leave briskly.

Under the sunlight,

her departing figure was so nonchalant it was unbeatable.

There was a powerful feeling to it.

Jian Yi watched her leaving silhouette, only coming to his senses after a long while.

He even found it hard to believe. Had she really gone just like that?

It was the first time Jian Yi realized that a girl could also have such a dashing moment.

Originally,

Jian Yi had thought that Chu Jin would definitely plead with him, asking to stay.

But unexpectedly...

Watching Chu Jin’s disappearing figure, Jian Yi gently raised his hand and summoned a soldier over, whispering to him, "Follow that woman who just left, and keep me updated on her itinerary."

"Yes, sir," the soldier respectfully saluted and then turned to follow in the direction where Chu Jin had vanished.

Chu Jin quickly left the military compound.

She arrived at a street that was fairly bustling.

Now, all she had in her hand was two thousand nine hundred and seventy-eight yuan, which she would need to spend carefully.

So, she found a relatively affordable inn with a decent environment to stay in.

Here,

her beauty once again gave her an advantage. When paying, the innkeeper not only gave her a discount but also offered her complimentary breakfast and dinner.

Chu Jin smiled and thanked the innkeeper, then went upstairs with her dog son Little Grey and her small suitcase.

It was a simple one-bedroom suite.

It had a living room as well as a kitchen.

For one person and an additional fox, it was spacious enough.

The most important thing was,

it was cheap enough.

After organizing her belongings in the room, Chu Jin lay on the bed and her consciousness entered into that stone house.

Inside the stone house, everything remained as it was.

A half-eaten bag of potato chips and sunflower seeds.

Whenever she saw these, a plump dark shadow swiftly flickered before Chu Jin’s eyes.

What was strange was,

no matter how hard she tried, she couldn’t see the face of that small dark shadow.

In her ears,

the crisp voice calling ’Jin Brother’ was incredibly clear.

It was a child’s voice,

with a mischievous feel to it.

After thinking for a while but still without success, Chu Jin picked up the Tarot cards and energy crystals and sat on a stone stool, studying them carefully.

Soon after, she picked up the "God Doctor’s Poem" and became so absorbed while reading it that she was eventually able to merge the teachings of Uncle Wu, an ancient doctor, with the knowledge from "God Doctor’s Poem."

Before she knew it, it was deep into the night.

The room was filled with the steady breathing of the girl and the snoring of Little Grey.

It was peaceful.

That night, Chu Jin had another dream.

It was still that man with a head full of silver hair.

She still could not see his features clearly.

But she could intensely feel the sense of desolation emanating from him.

He stood alone amid the swirling snowflakes, staring blankly at a clumsily built snowman.

Despite its faintness,

Chu Jin felt like she could see the bitter smile at the corner of his mouth.

She recognized that snowman.

It was unmistakably identical to the one she had built on Poland Mountain.

Chu Jin tried to approach him,

to talk to him,

but he couldn’t hear or see her.

As she came closer, she passed right through his body.

No matter how hard she tried, Chu Jin could not touch him.

No matter how hard she tried, Chu Jin could not see his features.

Who was he?

Chu Jin stood by his side, pondering in the snow all night, yet couldn’t come up with an answer.

In her mind, only the sight of that silver hair remained.

The night passed in a hurry.

Next morning,

since she had to go out and earn money with fortune-telling, Chu Jin got up early.

After eating the free breakfast provided by the inn, Chu Jin went out with Little Grey.

She found a spot with a good flow of people, took out a folding table and chair from the stone house, and set up a simple stall.

She also put up a small banner.

It read,

"Master Chu, golden divination, no charge if wrong!"

Because this was the Superpower World, having a small subspace was quite normal, so passersby did not find it strange to see her pulling out a table and chair from thin air.

Instead, it was her beauty that drew many gazes.

There were many beauties in the Superpower World.

But someone as beautiful as her was rare to see.

In the morning light,

the girl wore a white cotton dress with a red plum embroidered at the waist. Her skin was like snow; two braids framed her forehead, and she left the rest of her long hair hanging behind her head.

With delicate features, starry eyes, and lips as if painted, she looked like a celestial being who had stepped out of a painting.

She was mesmerizing.

On her wrist, she wore a blood-red bracelet, which made her fair skin appear even more luminescent.

Upon seeing this, the word "national beauty" came to the minds of the onlookers.

"Mommy, look, doesn’t this dough figurine look like that sister?" a child asked as they squeezed the figurine in their hand, pointing at Chu Jin to the young mother beside them.

"It really does look like her," the young mother said, comparing the figurine to Chu Jin, an expression of disbelief forming on her face.

Originally, she had thought that the dough figurine was just something the old master had fashioned from his imagination; after all, could there really be anyone in this world that beautiful?

But then, she had encountered her.

So it turned out that there were indeed people this beautiful in the world.

She was just so beautiful.

It made her, as a woman, feel quite ashamed.

The child continued to exclaim, "Mommy, that sister is so pretty." It was their first time seeing such a beautiful sister.

The young mother, too, was captivated by Chu Jin’s beauty and couldn’t extricate herself.

With the advantage of beauty, it wasn’t long before customers started approaching to have their fortunes told.

Just being able to converse with a beauty was already a great fortune in life.

Actually.

The people of the Superpower World so adored beauty for a reason.

Although the reason was somewhat exaggerated.

They believed that beauty, something that could be inherited, was also contagious.

Being around beautiful people.

Would make oneself become more handsome or beautiful.

Especially someone like Chu Jin.

Even if they could catch just one percent of her beauty, it would be enough to wake them up laughing from their dreams.

Those who came for divinations originally did so just to try their luck, thinking that since the girl was so beautiful, they wouldn’t be at a loss even if the readings were inaccurate.

But to their surprise.

The beauty’s divination skills turned out to be so accurate!

It was as if she truly embodied the phrase on the little banner.

"Golden-mouthed prophet."

Word spread from one to ten, ten to a hundred, and business kept improving. By the end of the day, Chu Jin was so busy she barely had time to eat.

Little Grey, on the other hand, was having the time of its life, lying lazily at Chu Jin’s feet, with roast chicken on the left, cheese on the right, and children taking its photos.

The people here seemed to have a special affection for foxes, and almost everyone who came for divination left a little present for Little Grey as they left.

So, Little Grey had become a real boss.

Enjoying the most privileged treatment.

Time flew by, and in the blink of an eye, it was evening.

Chu Jin was packing up her stall ready to leave when the last customer of the afternoon approached.

He simply settled himself in front of the stall, pressing down on the Tarot cards Chu Jin was about to pack away.

Chu Jin looked up in confusion.

What met her gaze was a young man with a head full of white hair.

With a noble demeanor and features as fine as White Jade, he was a quite good-looking man.

Chu Jin was slightly startled and squinted her delicate peach-shaped eyes, a hint of confusion flickering through them. Was he the white-haired man that she saw in her dreams?

Or.

Was he the person she was searching for?

Could it be that the white-haired man from her dreams truly existed?

For a moment, Chu Jin’s mind was filled with questions.

"What is your name?" Chu Jin asked, looking at him, her tone light.

The white-haired man curved his lips slightly, his smile cryptic as he said, "Aren’t you a fortune-teller? Why not divine my name?"

He radiated an air of utmost mystery.

With a somewhat aloof vibe.

Similar to the man from her dreams.

"Very well," Chu Jin said, her brows rising slightly as she quickly shuffled the Tarot cards.

In her hands, the deck of Tarot cards seemed to come alive, constantly shifting into various patterns.

The white-haired man watched her, a few glimmers of light flashing in the depth of his eyes.

Haha.

Little girl.

We meet again.

Including yesterday, how many times is this now? The fourth?

It seems they really are fated.

In that case, he definitely ought to cherish this connection.

Perhaps, this young girl could be his destined partner?

The young girl was certainly fairly attractive, it’s just that...

She seemed a bit young.

But that didn’t matter.

As long as he took a liking to her.

After Chu Jin finished shuffling the cards, she quickly laid out a card spread.

It was the Sacred Triangle.

"Please pick three cards," Chu Jin directed, pointing to the spread.

The white-haired man, with a casual flick of his long fingers, drew one card and asked, "Is it okay to pick more?"

As he spoke, he placed the Tarot card he had drawn onto the table.

With his gesture, Chu Jin felt a chill rush towards her.

A deep, biting cold.

Causing pores to constrict.

Cold.

Chill.

It seemed like the man from her dreams also emanated such chill.

Was he.

The same person?

Chu Jin’s brow furrowed even more.

"May I ask..." The white-haired man waved his hand in front of Chu Jin, smiling and saying, "Am I so beautiful that you’re dazzled? Truly my bad!"
