"Hello, this is Angel Beauty Salon. I see you have an appointment. When can you come over?"

The voice of the receptionist at the opposite beauty salon was still sweet, but Sister Xin couldn't help frowning.

"My appointment is at 12 noon."

"Yes, ma'am." The voice on the other end was as gentle as ever, "It's three minutes to 12:30. When do you think you can come over?"

"12:30?" Sister Xin's voice suddenly rose.

She clicked on the phone to check the time in the upper left corner, and it showed exactly 12:27.

Just as the receptionist at the beauty salon said, it was three minutes to 12:30.

But when she came out of Yu Yuan's house, it was only a little after ten o'clock and not yet eleven o'clock. But when she looked in the mirror, how could it be...

"What... what's going on?"

After re-arranging the time with the beauty salon and getting back in the car, Sister Xin couldn't recover for a long time.

The moment she picked up the phone, she immediately remembered Yu Yuan's Weibo post— The third quarter of the You Hour*, avoid the water route.

(*You Hour (酉时 yǒu shí) refers to a two-hour period from 5:00 PM to 7:00 PM in the traditional Chinese 12-hour time system. 三刻 (sān kè) means three-quarters of an hour (in the traditional system, one 刻 = 15 minutes). According to Ming & Qing Dynasty System, it's 5:45 pm.)

Water route...

Through the windshield in front of her, the water surface in front was quiet and undisturbed, only when two breezes occasionally brushed the water would a few wrinkles slowly rise.

She glanced at the water surface in the distance, suddenly thought of something, and called a master she knew.

"Master, can you give me a talisman to ward off bad people?"

After waiting for the other person's affirmative answer, Sister Xin looked at Yu Yuan's phone number on her phone with gloomy eyes.

Wonderful, Yu Yuan...

Yu Yuan, who was being talked about by her, went out and entered a fast food restaurant not far downstairs.

Half an hour later, she finished three servings of ramen, five servings of rice, two kilograms of dumplings, two corns, and six chicken wings with rice, and three large chicken chops, and wiped her mouth in the surprised eyes of the boss.

"Boss, pay the bill."

The meal cost 230 yuan, and Yu Yuan didn't even have any noodle soup left in the bowl.

The melon-eating system looked at the plates on the table that were swept away, and was silent for a long time before stuttering, [Host, you... have you never been full before?]

In fact, what it wanted to ask more was whether she had never been full!

Obviously, she had eaten up the breakfast prepared by Liang Liang at home, how could she still eat so much!

"It's fine." Yu Yuan paid the money and came out, touching her stomach, feeling the food in the meal turn into energy and be transported to all parts of the body, and her almost sore hands and feet began to have strength.

She did not answer the melon-eating system, pinched her right hand fingers together and calculated, "The destined person is coming soon, we have to go back quickly."

[Going back now? Not eating melons anymore?]

The melon-eating system felt like a basin of cold water was poured down from the top of its head, chilling it to the bone.

[Host! Three days have passed in a week, and you will die in four days! You have to take your life seriously!]

Watching its host stand up and walk home without any hesitation, a trace of despair flashed through its young heart.

It thought the host was willing to come out and turn over a new leaf, but it didn't expect that she would eventually go back to the dead house!

They walked home one by one. The melon-eating system kept talking in Yu Yuan's ear, trying to brainwash her with empty eyes, but all of them died in her belly.

In the end, the melon-eating system no longer expected Yu Yuan to eat melons. It just hoped that she could get home alive.

[Host, host! Don't go straight! Don't go straight! Go around! There is an uncovered sewer passage in front!]

[Ahhhh! Can you watch the car? The car in front is going the wrong way. It's about to hit you!]

[Help! Help! Host, don't ignore the road! Ahhhh, whose child is this? Don't you know this is a public place? You're still riding a bike here!]

Yu Yuan got home more than half an hour later amid the squeaking of the melon-eating system. In the elevator, a tightly wrapped woman walked in and was stunned when she saw Yu Yuan.

Yu Yuan looked up at her and made way to the side. The two stood in the elevator, and no one spoke.

The community was an old community from many years ago. Generally, there were some elderly people living here, and there were relatively few idle people. However, in this city with a very developed entertainment industry, no matter where you were, you would inevitably meet two people in the same circle.

Yu Qingqing just came back from a drinking party today, and she was full of alcohol. She was worried that she would be photographed by unscrupulous media like this, causing a scandal and affecting the endorsement at hand. Unexpectedly, she met Yu Yuan in the elevator on her way home without any trouble.

Yu Yuan, a notorious yet famous actress in the entertainment industry, was known by everyone. With an exceptionally stunning face rarely seen in a century, many had expected her to carve out a brilliant path in showbiz. Instead, scandal after scandal followed her, and she ended up ruining her own reputation, reducing herself to nothing more than a socialite rumored to entertain wealthy patrons.

Glancing at Yu Yuan, who stood beside her with a bare face, seemingly oblivious to her identity, Yu Qingqing nervously dug her nails into her palm. Her mind raced with silent prayers: Hurry up! Hurry up! Let the elevator arrive faster!

As she prayed, the short half minute in the elevator felt like a year. Finally, the elevator reached the 16th floor. Just as she was about to leave, someone grabbed the corner of her clothes.

Yu Qingqing's heart skipped a beat.

Could she have been recognized?

"Miss Yu has a black eye and a lot of bad luck. I live in 2127. If you have anything you can't solve tonight, you can come to 2127."

The voice behind her was gentle and indifferent, spreading lazily in the elevator, making her mind clear and the feeling of tipsiness caused by drinking just now disappeared in an instant.

Yu Qingqing didn't know what Yu Yuan meant. She felt the force behind her disappear and hurried out of the elevator.
