After everything was ready, Shu Yu booked a room in a rather clean inn in town and stayed the night.

The next morning, she changed into a Daoist nun’s robe in her room and put on some makeup to make her look older. With that, her original appearance could not be seen at all. She combed all her hair into a bun and looked like a celestial. She looked more like a master than the fortune-teller yesterday. Shu Yu was quite satisfied with her appearance. She carried a cloth bag and went out.

She went to the stall outside the Yu family’s residence to have breakfast, looking at the entrance as she ate.

As expected, not long after, she saw Lord Yu’s figure coming out.

Shu Yu had asked around and found out that Lord Yu would usually go to his shops in the morning to check on the situation.

Looking at the direction he left in, it was indeed so.

Not long after Lord Yu left, Madame Yu also left in a palanquin.

Only then did Shu Yu put down a few copper coins and quickly walked towards Lord Yu’s shop.

Lord Yu happened to be coming out of one of the shops. Shu Yu lowered her head and walked straight toward him, discreetly avoiding Lord Yu’s attendants and successfully bumping into him.

“Don’t you have eyes?” Lord Yu staggered back two steps and raised his head in anger.

Shu Yu immediately lowered her eyes and stood still. She said apologetically, “Please forgive me, I was in a hurry. It’s just that I saw a baleful aura here and was worried that something would happen, so I bumped into you.”

Lord Yu was superstitious, so he was much kinder to monks and nuns. He had calmed down by now, “I was a little rash with my words too. I hope you won’t find fault with me.’

As soon as he finished speaking, Lord Yu suddenly thought of something and frowned, “You just said that you saw a baleful aura here?”

He turned his head and looked behind him. His shop was right behind him. Didn’t that mean that something was going to happen to his shop?

Shu Yu raised her head and feigned surprise, “The baleful aura is coming from you”

Lord Yu suddenly became nervous, “Why do you say that? ”

“My Lord, did you encounter any problems recently? Why is your glabella dark and contaminated by karma? You’re about to face a great disaster…” She suddenly shut her mouth, sighed, and shook her head.

When Lord Yu first heard the nun say that his glabella was dark, he was not too happy. He had clearly had some happy events recently and was in high spirits. Master Geng said that he was about to have a child, so how could there be a big disaster?

Yet, seeing Shu Yu sigh halfway through her sentence and was about to leave, his heart skipped a beat and he stopped her immediately, “Why did you stop halfway through your sentence?”

“I’m only passing by Wenlan Town and really should be a busybody. I originally thought that this shop was filled with a baleful aura and was worried that it would hurt the innocent, so I rushed over. Now that I’ve found out that the source of the baleful aura is My Lord, and it’s also because of karma, it would be against heaven’s will for me to interfere. Please take care. I’ll be taking my leave.”

Shu Yu turned around and left. She didn’t have the attitude of a charlatan chasing after a rich person. She was very frank.

With that, Lord Yu became even more nervous and believed her. He quickly ordered two attendants to stop her, “Please wait.”

Shu Yu closed her eyes slightly, looking as if she had seen through the mortal world, but the corners of her mouth secretly curled up.

This… was catering to another’s likes.

Wasn’t Lord Yu superstitious and particularly believed in such things? Let’s see who’s better, her or that fortune-teller, Master Geng..
