Chapter 13 Human Skin Lantern (Part 1)

Secondly, it's because they dislike each other, so it's easy for them to part ways amicably, and he can also help her financially.

But ever since she was kicked out of the Su family, Feifan did not complain or give up on herself. Instead, she lived a different kind of life in her own way.

It seems like they don't need any help?
If it weren't for the fact that her features were so familiar, she would seem like a completely different person.

Moreover, her fortune-telling skills were so practiced and experienced that it was as if she had rehearsed them countless times.

In my memory, when did pampered young ladies who lived a life of luxury ever learn these things?
Even Shao'an was kept in the dark, so how did she manage to do it?
It has to be said that she seems to be hiding many secrets these days.

Mo Lijiu rubbed her fingers together, looking forward to the day when her mysterious veil would be lifted.

Seeing that Mo Lijiu hadn't said anything, Su Yixuan decided to end the live stream and go out to find something to eat, as she was a little hungry since she hadn't had lunch yet.

"Host, I have a few lucky charm pictures. I'd like you to help me see which one I should hang at the door to help me find a wife."

"..."

[Haha, Cupid, quick, what picture is this? If it's useful, could you share it? I want to print one out and hang it on my front door!]

The person upstairs is right; this is the common sentiment of us single folks.

[Just wondering, does this picture also work for finding a boyfriend? I'm willing to pay for it!]

I'll sell everything I own to buy it!

Su Yixuan pressed the throbbing vein on her forehead, feeling for the first time the urge to beat someone until they were deformed.

He simply said "private chat" and abruptly ended the live stream.

What can vent anger? Only delicious food!
Locking the dilapidated security door, I went down the stairs to the first floor, only to be blocked at the entrance of the alley by a shiny black car.

That showy guy who makes your teeth ache was standing by the car door.

Having finally managed to restrain her restless fingers, Su Yixuan looked at Mo Lijiu with a forced smile: "How did you know I lived here?"

Mo Lijiu stepped forward: "Is this so difficult to investigate?"

"You really went to great lengths to fool your grandfather. You must have gone to a lot of trouble!"

"It wasn't entirely for his sake, but more for my own."

Mo Lijiu glanced at the gold watch on his wrist and gentlemanly opened the passenger door: "The timing is perfect, let's eat and chat!"

"I have something to do later, so I don't have time to chat properly. Let's make it another day!"

Mo Lijiu pointed to the black and shiny figure beside her: "Xiao Xuanxuan hasn't bought a car yet, right? Does she need a personal driver to pick her up and drop her off?"

"I can't afford it!"

"Free of charge, we'll pay you!"

"With you neglecting your duties like this, aren't you sure the company won't go bankrupt?"

"……Disaster!"

Nestled in the spacious leather seat, Su Yixuan couldn't help but despise herself for giving in.

"I remember you like the steak on West Street, how about we go there?"

"Anything works!"

After finally finding the information about that shop in her memory, the proletarian Su Yixuan quickly changed her tune: "I think the wonton noodles next door are even better!"

Mo Lijiu gripped the steering wheel tightly, feeling inexplicably uneasy, unable to bring herself to say "I'll treat you."

He nodded and said, "Then let's have wonton noodles! I haven't had them in a long time."

Looking at Mo Lijiu's sharply defined profile, Su Yixuan suddenly laughed: "You don't need to pity me. This is the life I want now. I used to live in a cocoon, surviving by absorbing nutrients from others. But now that I'm free from the constraints of the cocoon, I can finally see the vast world outside. This is a good thing!"

Mo Lijiu's nose tingled with emotion: "Yes, Xiao Xuanxuan has grown up and become independent!"

The small noodle shop was quite crowded, with two people huddled together in a corner near the door.

The out-of-place Mo Lijiu attracted everyone's attention, calmly and elegantly eating her wonton noodles without a care in the world. Su Yixuan, on the other hand, was much less particular, slurping down her noodles quickly and even finishing the soup.

Seeing that the young nobleman opposite him also had an empty bowl.

Su Yixuan grabbed a tissue to wipe her mouth: "I thought you couldn't get used to this kind of food!"

"If you can get used to it, why can't I?"

"Right!"

Nonsense, I'm not some pampered Miss Su.

Back in the day, it wasn't easy to even get a meal of wontons.

Because he was born poor, the more savings he had, the more seriously his younger brother got sick, so he could hardly keep even ten yuan in his pocket.

No matter how much money I earn, I will donate it all to bring good fortune to my younger brother.

That's probably why she wasn't eliminated by the Heavenly Dao!
now……

Su Yixuan: System, is my money still there?

System: I'm here!
Su Yixuan: That's good. Let me liquidate my assets and donate half of them.

System: Friendly reminder: This system is only responsible for its assigned tasks!

Su Yixuan: ? ? ?
With the arrogant system out of reach, Su Yixuan had no choice but to turn her attention to Mo Lijiu: "Brother Jiu, do you know any reliable charitable organizations?"

Mo Lijiu, who was driving, was taken aback by the question: "I do know some people, why are you asking this?"

Su Yixuan put her hands behind her head and asked leisurely, "Doing charity, what else can I do!"

"it is good!"

Suddenly, Su Yixuan looked out the window with delight: "What place is that?"

Mo Lijiu slowed down the car and glanced at the ancient alleyway on the right: "Wuming City is the most famous antique street in the area. In previous years, you could really find a lot of good things, but now the market is full of high-quality fakes, and there are hardly any decent items here."

"In the eyes of us experts, there are only those that are usable and those that are not; we don't care whether it is the first generation or not."

"Oh?"

Mo Lijiu looked at her with surprise: "This is not quite what I know. My grandfather and the older generation still believe in this, and the family supports several teachers. They didn't say this."

"We're probably from different factions!"

"Which faction are you from? And how did you acquire all these skills?"

"That day, after I was kicked out of my home, I went to the water's edge to clear my head."

Do I look dumber than Su Shaoan?

Su Yixuan knew this black fox wasn't so easily fooled, so she shrugged indifferently: "See, you insisted on asking, and even if I told you, you wouldn't believe me. It's just the truth!"

"What is your family or sect's greatest strength?"

“Draw the talisman!”

I remember when my parents died in a car accident, all our assets were seized by so-called relatives.

The ten-year-old sister and her six-year-old brother were reduced to begging on the streets.

That day, she was sitting by the flower bed, her stomach growling with hunger, looking for someone to beg for. Suddenly, she saw a ragged, smelly old man, casually tore off a small figurine, and tapped it a few times, and the figurine actually came to life.

Soon, an even more surprising scene unfolded: the little figure climbed onto the bag of an elegantly dressed young woman and quickly returned to the old man's hands with several large-denomination banknotes.

The impoverished Su Yixuan was filled with envy and tried to tear off a few little figures, but her fingers poked and prodded them without success.

After studying it for many days, although the technique was somewhat effective, the little paper figure remained motionless.

It seemed that making a living with this skill wouldn't work, and just as she was about to give up, the little paper figure suddenly stood up with a "poof".

 We're testing the waters tomorrow, remember to come and support us!
