The Villain's Mom Becomes Famous for Fortune-Telling and Gossip Ch. 101

Bai Cheng pulled down his hat, covering most of his face, his voice still cold. "I can see something. This woman carries a lot of yin energy. She's probably encountered more than one ghost. But through electronic devices, I can't tell exactly how many."

Fang Junyan looked at Huo Qianya, who had asked the question. "Did you use up all your divination for today?"

Huo Qianya silently nodded.

For a moment, all three of them fell into silence.

After half a minute, Fang Junyan seemed to have thought of something, sighing. "Although I really don't want to admit it, this Yu Yuan is really much stronger than us."

For feng shui, they either had photos or someone describing the layout or terrain. Huo Qianya was very powerful, but she could only do three divinations a day. If she did more, they'd be inaccurate and could even backfire. Bai Cheng, on the other hand, came from a family of ghost hunters. He could see yin and ghost energy, but that was his limit.

Among them, the only one who could potentially compare to Yu Yuan was Ge Anduo. Unfortunately, Ge Anduo, though talented at home, had lost much of the skill of reading faces over the years. In her free time, she preferred to shop or play, and it seemed she was more willing to be a flashy internet celebrity than someone serious about metaphysics.

Huo Qianya calmly watched Yu Yuan on the screen, effortlessly drawing talismans, each one completed in one smooth motion. The sense of crisis in her heart grew stronger.

Someone like Yu Yuan could either disappear or become an ally of their Celestial Master Hall. There could not be a third option.

But she was sent by the Underworld, with a powerful backing. No ordinary Celestial Master could shake her position.

So, they were left with only one path: form an alliance with Yu Yuan!

"You two keep watching." She grabbed her bag from the table, tossing a quick wave behind her as she headed for the door. "I need to head home first. Fang Junyan, please let Uncle Fang know I'll visit again when I have time."

"Alright!" Fang Junyan responded.

With only two people left in the room, Bai Cheng continued watching the livestream on the computer screen. After a moment, something seemed to come to his mind, and he began staring intently at Fang Junyan's profile.

Fang Junyan: "..."

He shifted slightly to the side, instinctively wiping his face. A look of confusion appeared on his handsome face. "Is there something on my face?"

Bai Cheng silently shook his head.

"Then why are you staring at me?"

Bai Cheng hesitated, lowering his head, unsure of how to respond.

Fang Junyan, not very familiar with him, knew that Bai Cheng's family, once on par with the Ge family, had fallen into decline after the death of the family head. Over the years, Bai Cheng had been living with his sister, protected by his aunt, and had barely survived. He guessed Bai Cheng probably had something he wanted to ask but was too embarrassed. He said bluntly, "If you have something to ask, feel free. I can tell you anything I know."

Bai Cheng was taken aback by the direct kindness of a stranger but quickly reacted, "Do you know about President Xiang being arrested?"

"I know," Fang Junyan understood what he was getting at. "You're thinking about the grave that was dug up?"

"Yes," Bai Cheng didn't deny it. "If the grave was really dug up, the remains shouldn't just be left out in the open. And..."

"And you think it's unfair to President Xiang's late wife?" Fang Junyan understood.

Bai Cheng didn't deny it. "I just think good people shouldn't end up like this."

"Really?" Fang Junyan was a little surprised by his words. "I thought after so many years of struggle, you'd be used to these things."

"I've seen a lot, but that shouldn't be a reason to get used to it." Bai Cheng stared at Yu Yuan in the livestream. "In this world, it's often the ones who have no humanity who live brightly, while the reason for metaphysics existing is to ensure those who deserve punishment get what's coming to them."

"President Xiang killed his wife and child to secure his own wealth and status, but I know the police don't have much evidence." Bai Cheng glanced at Fang Junyan, who was sipping tea. "I want to help the mother and child who died."

Fang Junyan didn't respond immediately. After finishing his tea, he pulled out a stack of documents from the drawer. "You're a bit late to help."

He opened the files. "These are the pieces of evidence the Special Incident Investigation Bureau sent over two hours ago. They show all the smuggling, organ trafficking, and corpse destruction President Xiang has been involved in over the years. Once the police finish their investigation, the prosecutor's office will file charges. President Xiang is either facing the death penalty or life imprisonment."

The livestream continued on the computer. Fang Junyan glanced at Yu Yuan, who was lazily sitting in her chair. He smiled at Bai Cheng. "Like you said, this is the true meaning of metaphysics."

In the livestream, Magpie had finished describing the ghostly figure she saw on the ceiling. In another room, Yu Liang was holding his trembling dog, Gua Gua, and lifting his beloved pet onto the bed.

He patted Gua Gua's fluffy head and comforted, "Don't be afraid, Gua Gua, I'll sleep with you tonight!"

Gua Gua covered its eyes with its paw and whimpered.

Zhou Yu rubbed the back of his neck, which was also feeling chilly, wrapped himself tighter in his clothes, and teased the big white dog, "You're so big and still so scared!"

Gua Gua turned its back on him.

Yu Yuan, having heard what Magpie said, squinted. "Did you say her hair was very long?"

"Yes!" Magpie clenched her fists, her head growing heavy just thinking about the ghostly figure she saw that night. "Her hair was so long, it hung down from the ceiling, almost reaching my nose!"

Yu Yuan asked another question. "Have you ever seen hair that long in your daily life?"

Magpie's sister-in-law sensed the hidden meaning in her words. She sat up straight on the sofa and leaned toward the phone. "Master Yu, what do you mean by that?"

"Your sister's face is all wrong." Yu Yuan circled her finger in the air, stopping it at the tip of her nose. "That means everything around her is starting to fall into decline, including her wealth."

"The wealth palace is located at the tip of the nose and governs financial luck. Now, the spiritual energy around her nose has turned gray, which means she's about to lose a large sum of money. And the woman she keeps seeing on the ceiling..."
