Chapter 86: All Wishes Come True

Du An Rao took a few seconds to remember who Xi Jing Yue was talking about, and her expression suddenly changed.

“Tang Qian Qian? What happened to her? Did something happen?”

“Don’t worry, Miss Tang is fine.”

Du An Rao froze: “She’s fine?”

“Yes, she’s fine, not even a scratch.”

“Then…”

Knowing what she was worried about, Xi Jing Yue did not keep her in suspense: “After you read her fortune that day, Zhao Yang excused her from the night shift. On normal work days, he also tried his best to have colleagues walk with her to and from the company. But I kept thinking about the blood calamity you mentioned that day and still felt uneasy, so I had two bodyguards protect her in secret.”

When Du An Rao heard this, she was stunned for a moment, then her eyes lit up.

[Awesome, Mr. Xi, you actually know how to draw inferences and prepare ahead of time!]

“The night before last, Miss Tang probably woke up in the middle of the night feeling hungry and went out to buy some late night snacks. On her way back, she ran into a couple arguing. To be exact, they were exes who had already broken up. The man couldn’t make her take him back, and in a fit of rage, he stabbed the girl once.”

Mother Du and the others were hearing this for the first time and could not help but gasp.

Du An Rao’s face also turned a bit pale, but what she thought of was another matter.

[Sure enough, just getting rid of the factor of coming home late can’t completely get rid of the danger. The plot can still be pulled back on track and return to the original line.]

Thankfully, Mr. Xi had already arranged for bodyguards to protect her in secret. Otherwise, no matter how much she had warned before, she still would not have been able to protect Miss Tang’s life.

Thinking this, Du An Rao unconsciously clenched her fists, a trace of regret flashing through her eyes.

She really had been too arrogant and taken things for granted. That was a living life. Any unfavorable factor could lead to an accident.

And a human life only comes once, and chances… also only come once.

Xi Jing Yue’s eyes flashed. He was also secretly glad that he had listened to Du An Rao muttering back then. He had thought that saving one person was still saving someone. In case they really ran into trouble, maybe they could even save that ex girlfriend who was stabbed. So he simply assigned two bodyguards to Tang Qian Qian to make sure nothing went wrong.

He had not expected that she would actually be right.

“After that man stabbed her in anger, he noticed Miss Tang standing at the mouth of the alley, scared stiff. He planned to kill her too to silence her. Luckily, my two bodyguards stopped him in time. They called the police and took the injured girl to the hospital. Fortunately, they got her there quickly, the wound didn’t hit any vital organs, and although she lost a lot of blood, they finally managed to save her.”

Upon hearing that the ex girlfriend had also been saved, the stone hanging in Du An Rao’s heart finally dropped.

“Thank goodness, thank goodness.”

Looking at the pure relief and joy on Du An Rao’s face, Xi Jing Yue suddenly felt a strange feeling in his heart.

To her, these people were clearly strangers she had only met once, or had not even met at all, yet she could still naturally empathize with them.

She sympathized with what they were going through, was angry at their suffering, and would even rack her brains to interfere and warn them just to change their fixed fate.

“It really is lucky. We have you to thank for this. If you hadn’t warned us, I’m afraid the two of them would both have met with disaster.”

Du An Rao felt a little embarrassed by his praise and hurriedly waved her hands: “No, no, it’s Mr. Xi’s credit. If Mr. Xi hadn’t thought things through and sent bodyguards ahead of time to protect Miss Tang, they never would have accidentally saved two lives. They should be thanking Mr. Xi.”

Xi Jing Yue only smiled without saying anything and did not argue with her about it.

Instead, Liao Yu Qian and the others had listened to them talk for so long that they finally could not hold back their curiosity and cut in: “President Xi, what exactly were you two just talking about…”

Xi Jing Yue subconsciously glanced at Du An Rao, and seeing that she did not object, he finally started to explain.

“Here’s the thing. My cousin opened an entertainment company. Lately, a lot of small problems have been popping up inside the company, so he started to suspect that it might be his ill favored year, or that something was wrong with the company’s feng shui. So he asked me to invite Miss Du over to the company to take a look…”

“Miss Du also knows feng shui reading?”

The one who asked was Yin Bai Lu, but when she spoke, she was looking at Du Lian Shuang.

As if she were asking: Your niece even knows how to do this? How come I’ve never heard you mention it before?

Du Lian Shuang: “…” To tell the truth, she had just found out too.

Seeing this, Mother Du laughed and smoothed things over: “Our An An grew up in a Taoist temple. She followed her master in cultivation and learned a little bit of the basics. It’s nothing fancy, please don’t laugh at her.”

A light flashed in Du Lian Shuang’s mind. Mother Du had already said this to her before when she mentioned Du An Rao.

She hadn’t thought much of it at the time. Now that she knew about the girl’s strange abilities, she finally realized what those words had really meant.

Xi Jing Yue smoothly followed Mother Du’s lead: “Auntie, you are too modest. Miss Du’s skills are far more than just the basics. Everything I just talked about came from Miss Du’s reminders, especially the matter with Miss Tang. At the time, Miss Du only walked past her desk and, from her physiognomy and the layout of the surrounding environment, figured out that she would face a blood calamity and warned her that she absolutely must not stay out late for the time being.”

“Because of that, my cousin specially allowed her not to work overtime and not to stay late. Even so, she still almost didn’t escape. It was really dangerous.”

Liao Yu Qian frowned. He had always been neither here nor there when it came to supernatural things, but he also knew that Xi Jing Yue had no reason to lie to him about something like this.

Yin Bai Lu, however, was more of the “better to believe it than not” type: “That really is a blessing in disguise. I don’t even know what the world is coming to now. Not long ago I saw a news story about a girl who took a taxi home after getting off work at midnight and ended up getting killed. You really can’t guard against everything.”

Xi Jing Yue smiled. After setting things up for so long, he finally got to his real purpose: “President Liao, didn’t you just say that things haven’t been going well lately, and several projects ran into problems right when they were about to succeed? Why not let Miss Du take a look for you? Maybe you’ll get an unexpected surprise.”

Du An Rao jolted. If there had been an antenna on top of her head, it would be standing straight up right now.

[Mr. Xi, you really are my god forever! I was just wondering how I should remind this couple that their Little Bai cabbage is about to be eaten by a wild boar from outside, and now the chance has come right to me?]

[But if I really read President Liao’s fortune, I am afraid there won’t be any surprise, only a whole pile of shocks.]

Xi Jing Yue almost burst out laughing.

Forget it. Whether it was a surprise or a scare, keeping people safe was what really mattered.

Based on what he knew about Liao Yu Qian, the man would probably turn the little bit of discomfort in his heart into other people’s fright.

And once he knew the truth of things, the way this matter developed in the future would very likely go in the direction Du An Rao had just been hoping for.

Xi Jing Yue did not hide the little bit of selfishness he had toward Du An Rao. He just wanted all of this person’s wishes to come true.

For that, it was fine even if he had to go through a few more twists and turns.
