Chapter 152: 152 Familiarity (by Jiugeng)

Hearing this, Mo Qianjue’s lips curled up in a smile.

It seemed that the girl’s skills in deception were not very sophisticated. The woman clearly said she had been looking for her missing son for over a decade, yet she insisted the woman had no children.

Wasn’t she ruining her own reputation?

This young lady really was adorably foolish.

Just as Mo Qianjue was about to turn away, he heard the middle-aged woman’s astonished voice, "Oh, Master Chu, you’re truly amazing! How could you even predict that? No wonder everyone says you’re gifted, it seems I really didn’t come to the wrong place today."

Mo Qianjue stopped in his tracks, the mocking look in his eyes slowly fading away.

The little lolita also looked at the middle-aged woman with bewilderment.

This aunty must be a fool, her words did not line up at all.

Chu Jin raised an eyebrow slightly and continued, "Your son, is actually... a dog?"

The middle-aged woman nodded her head hastily, "Yes, yes, yes! Master Chu, you’re absolutely right. My son is a purebred Husky."

Chu Jin: "..." It turned out that getting lost was something only a Two Ha could manage.

Didn’t the internet say that if a Two Ha lost its way it could go to the police station to report itself?

Was that all just for show?

About hyping up Two Has?

Mo Qianjue hadn’t expected the situation to take such a turn.

He also hadn’t anticipated that a young girl could give him such a shock.

He had thought she was just a street con artist, but it turned out she really had some abilities.

Hearing the middle-aged woman’s words, the little lolita was completely astounded!

Hey, wait!

She had just called a dog ’big brother’?!

Her own silly bread at home had never been given such treatment, and now it had been squandered on a stupid dog that couldn’t even find its way home!

Seeing that Chu Jin didn’t speak, the middle-aged woman’s expression changed and she said anxiously, "Master Chu, you wouldn’t also give up on him because my son is a dog, would you? I beg of you, you must help me find my son, I’ll give you ten thousand yuan!"

"You don’t need to worry, all things in this world are equal, every life comes into this world with its own mission to complete, rest assured, I will not discriminate against it because of species."

All things in this world are equal?

Mo Qianjue’s expression changed slightly, a bright light flashing in his beautiful phoenix eyes.

The corners of his lips also unconsciously rose a few more degrees.

Chu Jin continued, "Moreover, a deal was made for a thousand and I will not take a penny more from you."

The middle-aged woman immediately asked, "So where is my son now? Is he hungry? Is he cold? Has he lost weight?"

At that moment, the little lolita somberly interjected, "Aunty, I think what you should be most worried about right now is whether your son has turned into a plate of braised dog meat and ended up as someone’s side dish for drinks."

Upon hearing this, the middle-aged woman’s expression changed, wailing, "Oh no, my son, if anything happens to you, mom won’t want to live either... "

"Peng Ge, no mischief!" Chu Jin reached out to pinch the little lolita’s nose.

"Aunty, rest assured, your son is fine," Chu Jin turned to look at the middle-aged woman.

"Really? Then where is my son now?" the middle-aged woman asked, looking up in joy.

Chu Jin glanced at the Tarot cards and continued, "You keep walking along this road, go straight until the next intersection and turn, then walk straight on. You will see a snack street ahead of you. Find the Lanzhou noodle shop there; your son has been taken in by the owner of the shop."

"Okay," the middle-aged woman said, hastily wiping away the tears on her face, "Really? I know that snack street, I will go find my son right now."

After saying that, she counted out ten banknotes from her wallet, "Master Chu, here, this is your payment."

At the same time, a notification from the system rang in Chu Jin’s mind, "Ding! 2% Faith Value harvested!"

Chu Jin smiled as she accepted the money the middle-aged woman handed over, "Thank you."

After saying goodbye to Chu Jin, the middle-aged woman headed in the direction Chu Jin had indicated.

Chu Jin watched her departing figure, her pupils slightly contracting, "Auntie, wait a moment."

The middle-aged woman stopped in her tracks subconsciously, "Master, is there anything else?"

Chu Jin placed the Tarot cards on the table, stepped forward to the middle-aged woman, and gently brushed off her shoulders with her hand, "It’s nothing, Auntie. It’s just that there was some dust on your shoulders."

Whether it was an illusion or not, as Chu Jin brushed her, the middle-aged woman felt a considerable relief, as if her shoulders suddenly became much lighter.

It felt as if Master Chu was not brushing away any dust but knocking off the massive weight that was pressing down on her shoulders.

Chu Jin then said, "After you find your son, Auntie, try to get home early and do not linger near the water at all costs."

Seeing the serious look on Chu Jin’s face, the middle-aged woman nodded earnestly, "Got it, Master Chu. I understand."

At this moment, Mo Qianjue could no longer simply describe his expression as shocked.

He had not expected such a young girl to possess such profound skills.

Even more impressive was her ability to maintain her kindness and hold on to her original intentions.

She did not become arrogant due to her own abilities.

The middle-aged woman just now had been marked by a water ghost. Had she come within half a step of the water, she would have drowned.

Not only did Chu Jin discreetly remove the mark from the woman’s shoulders, but she also made no mention of her life-saving action.

Human life, after all, is much more valuable than that of a dog’s.

Who exactly is she?

Now, Mo Qianjue was even more curious.

Why did she give off an inexplicable sense of familiarity to him?

It looked like he would have to observe her more, Mo Qianjue thought to himself as he leapt up gracefully, turning into a silhouette and alighting onto the high branches of a plane tree.

He lay half-reclined on a branch, one hand supporting his head, the other resting casually on his waist.

Squinting slightly, he looked down at the large and small figures below the tree.

He appeared indolent yet enchanting.

Those features, more stunning than a woman’s by threefold, would amaze anyone who saw them.

Paired with his languid posture, he was devastatingly beautiful.

A new customer had come to the simple stall under the tree.

A middle-aged scavenger dressed in tattered clothes.

Mo Qianjue had originally thought Chu Jin would refuse the scavenger, but to his surprise, he heard the girl’s clear voice, "Uncle, please have a seat. Is there something you would like to ask?"
