Mind reading saves the whole family; I'm firmly in the role of a charlatan.

Chapter 86 All Wishes Come True

It took Du Anrao a few seconds to remember who Xi Jingyue was referring to, and his expression suddenly changed.

"Tang Qianqian? What happened to her? Did something happen to her?"

"Don't worry, Miss Tang is fine."

Du Anrao was stunned: "She's alright?"

"Yes, she's fine, completely unharmed."

"That……"

Knowing what Du Anrao was worried about, Xi Jingyue didn't keep him in suspense: "After you helped her with the calculations that day, Zhaoyang exempted her from the night shift and tried to have her colleagues walk with her to and from get off work every day. But thinking about the bloodshed you mentioned that day, I was still a little worried, so I had two bodyguards secretly protect her."

Du Anrao was stunned for a moment when he heard this, then his eyes lit up slightly.

[Mr. Xi is amazing! He actually knows how to apply what he's learned to other situations and plan ahead!]

"The night before last, Ms. Tang probably woke up in the middle of the night feeling a bit hungry, so she went out to buy a late-night snack. On her way back, she happened to run into a couple arguing, or more accurately, an ex-couple who had broken up arguing. The man asked to get back together, but was rejected. In a fit of anger, he stabbed the girl."

This was the first time that Du's mother and the others had heard of this, and they couldn't help but gasp in shock.

Du Anrao's face was also somewhat pale, but she was thinking about something else.

[Simply addressing the issue of late returns doesn't completely eliminate the risks. The plot could still be rectified and revert to its original course.]

Fortunately, Mr. Xi had arranged for bodyguards to protect her in secret; otherwise, no matter how much he said beforehand, he wouldn't have been able to save Miss Tang's life.

Thinking this, Du Anrao subconsciously clenched his fist, a trace of regret flashing in his eyes.

She was ultimately too arrogant and presumptuous. That was a living, breathing life, and any adverse factor could have caused an accident.

Human life is only once, and so is opportunity...

Xi Jingyue's eyes flickered slightly. He was also secretly glad that he had listened to Du Anrao's mutterings. He thought that he could save as many people as possible. If he really encountered them, he might be able to save his ex-girlfriend who had been stabbed as well. That's why he simply sent two bodyguards to Tang Qianqian to ensure that nothing went wrong.

Unexpectedly, she was right!
"After the man was enraged and injured the girl, he found Miss Tang standing there in a daze at the alley entrance. He was planning to kill her to cover his tracks. Fortunately, my two bodyguards stopped him in time. They called the police and took the injured girl to the hospital. Luckily, she was taken to the hospital in time. The wound was not fatal, but she lost a lot of blood and was eventually saved."

Upon hearing that his ex-girlfriend had also been rescued, Du Anrao finally felt completely relieved.

"so far so good."

Looking at the pure joy and relief on Du Anrao's face, Xi Jingyue felt a strange sensation arise in his heart.

Even though these people were just strangers she had only met once, or even never met at all, she was able to empathize with them naturally.

They sympathize with their plight, are angered by their suffering, and may even go to great lengths to obstruct or warn them in an attempt to change their predetermined fate.

"It's really alright, all thanks to you. If it weren't for your reminder, they might have both met with misfortune."

Du Anrao felt a little embarrassed by what he said and quickly waved his hand, "No, no, no, it's all thanks to Mr. Xi. If Mr. Xi hadn't been so thoughtful and sent bodyguards to protect Miss Tang in advance, we wouldn't have been able to save two lives by such a twist of fate. They should thank Mr. Xi." Xi Jingyue just smiled and didn't say anything, and didn't argue with Du Anrao about this issue.

On the contrary, Liao Yuqian and the others, having listened to them talk for so long, finally couldn't contain their curiosity and interjected, "President Xi, what exactly are you talking about...?"

Xi Jingyue glanced at Du Anrao subconsciously, and seeing that she did not object, he then began to explain.

"Here's the thing, my cousin owns an entertainment company, and lately, they've been having a lot of minor problems. He's wondering if it's just bad luck of his year, or maybe there's something wrong with the feng shui of the company. So he asked me to invite Ms. Du to come and take a look..."

"Miss Du also knows feng shui?"

The person asking the question was Yin Bailu, but she was looking at Du Lianshuang when she said it.

It's as if they're asking: "Your niece can do this? I've never heard you mention it before."
Du Lianshuang: "..." To be honest, I just found out too.

Seeing this, Du's mother smiled and tried to smooth things over: "Our An'an grew up in a Taoist temple and followed his master in quiet cultivation. He has learned a little bit, but it is not worthy of being presented in a refined manner. Please forgive him."

A thought flashed through Du Lianshuang's mind: her mother had mentioned this to her before when she talked about Du Anrao.

At the time, she didn't think much of it, but now that she knows about the other person's extraordinary abilities, she finally realized what that meant!
Xi Jingyue subtly joined forces with Du's mother: "Auntie, you're too modest. Miss Du's abilities are far more than just superficial. What I just mentioned all stemmed from Miss Du's advice, especially regarding that Miss Tang. Miss Du merely walked past her workstation and, based on her appearance and the surrounding environment, deduced that she would suffer a bloody disaster, warning her never to come home late these days."

"For this reason, my cousin specially allowed her not to work overtime or come home late, but I didn't expect that she still almost couldn't avoid it. It was really thrilling."

Liao Yuqian frowned. He had never cared whether he believed in or not these supernatural tales, but he also knew that Xi Jingyue had no reason to lie to him about such things.

Yin Bailu, however, preferred to believe it was true rather than not: "That's really a stroke of luck amidst misfortune. I don't know what's wrong with the world these days. I saw a news report a while ago about a girl who was murdered after taking a taxi home from get off work late at night. It's really impossible to guard against such things."

Xi Jingyue smiled and, after so much buildup, finally revealed his true purpose: "Didn't President Liao just say that things haven't been going well lately, with several projects running into problems just before completion? Why don't you let Miss Du do some calculations for you? Maybe there will be some unexpected good news."

Du Anrao suddenly shuddered; if there were an antenna on his head, it would definitely be standing straight up right now.

[Mr. Xi, you're truly my god! I was just wondering how to warn this couple that their little cabbage was about to be eaten by a wild boar outside, and here comes my chance!]

However, if we were to truly assess this Mr. Liao, there would likely be no pleasant surprises, but rather a host of shocks.

Xi Jingyue: Pfft...

Never mind, whether it's a pleasant surprise or a shock, the most important thing is to save lives.

However, based on his understanding of Liao Yuqian, he would probably turn all his unhappiness into a shock to others.

Moreover, if he were to learn the truth, the future development of this matter would most likely follow the direction that Du Anrao had just hoped for.

Xi Jingyue made no secret of his personal feelings for Du Anrao; he simply wanted the person in front of him to have all his desires fulfilled.

Therefore, it doesn't matter if it takes a little more trouble.
