Let's start over, Your Majesty.
Chapter 203 The End of the Incident, The Mysterious Fortune Teller
Chapter 203 The End of the Incident, The Mysterious Fortune Teller (Parent-Teacher Meeting Episode Complete)
“Everything is normal outside now, and the gathering in the auditorium is almost over,” Ita said.
"That's good." Caesar nodded.
His gaze fell on the spot where the Blanty family had disappeared, and he remained silent for a long time.
"Ita."
"Hmm, what can I do for you?"
"Did I do a good job?" Caesar suddenly asked.
"Hmm?" Ita blinked, looking at him in surprise.
"Why do you ask so suddenly?"
"nothing."
Caesar didn't know why he asked that question. Perhaps it was because he was so impressed by how Larton, no matter how weak he was, still protected his loved ones with his own flesh and blood, that he felt somewhat inferior in comparison.
Even if you have no power of your own, would you still do everything in your power to protect your family?
Itha winked at Caesar, then smiled:
"If Caesar is only asking the literal meaning, then of course the answer is yes. To me, there is no better man than Caesar."
Caesar smiled helplessly and pinched her cheek.
Perhaps he already had the answer in his heart. Having finally found the warmth of home after traversing two lifetimes, he would definitely protect it at all costs.
Yumilia walked out of the hall and looked around, but did not see Caesar.
"Where did Caesar go?" she said dejectedly.
Even during the group photo session, Caesar didn't return, leaving her alone among all the parents.
She was understandably frustrated to have missed such a memorable moment.
I found a bench outside the auditorium and sat down, waiting for Caesar to return.
At this moment, a woman wearing a black veil came to her side.
"Excuse me, may I sit here?" she asked politely.
"Oh, please." Yumilia moved aside, while secretly glancing at the strangely dressed woman beside her.
She was wearing a long dress with mutton tail sleeves, which was popular in the last century, but she looked very young, only in her early twenties. She had long, dark purple hair and purple lipstick. Although her face was covered by a veil, you could still see that her face had a retro beauty, like a sculpture in an art academy.
She sat upright to one side, her hands folded on her knees.
Noticing that Yumilia was secretly watching her, she turned her head and smiled slightly.
Yumilia blushed when she was caught peeking, and quietly apologized while looking away.
"You don't need to feel guilty. Dressed like this in this day and age, it's indeed hard not to attract attention," she said with a faint smile.
"Are you a stage actor?" Yumilia asked abruptly.
“No, I’m a fortune teller,” the woman said.
"A fortune teller?"
“Yes, if you don’t believe me, I can do a fortune telling for you,” the woman said, looking at her intently for a moment.
"You're waiting for your family to come, aren't you?"
“Really?” Yumilia exclaimed in surprise.
But she quickly realized that she had just given a speech in the auditorium, and everyone in the school knew that she had a Caesar. Now she was sitting here all alone, and everyone knew about her. So this couldn't be considered divination, could it?
But she still gave her a polite compliment.
"Of course, what I just saw is nothing. I can also divine some more secret things about you." The fortune teller woman gave a mysterious smile.
"No need for this."
Yumilia waved her hand, regardless of whether the other person was genuine or not, it was too strange to discuss private matters with strangers.
“Alright, please forgive my offense,” the fortune teller said, changing the subject.
"Excuse me, are you also waiting for your child?" Yumilia asked.
The other person wasn't of a long-lived type like herself; she didn't look like she was old enough to be a mother.
"No, I came with a friend to see what a parent-teacher conference at a top university is like. But now that the conference is over, I should head back," the fortune teller said casually. "By the way, I was hoping to do some business here, see if any parents are interested in divination. Business at the fortune teller's shop isn't good these days. I even did two free services for someone else a while ago, so I'm in a bit of a bind now," she sighed.
“You’ve worked so hard,” Yumilia said.
"So, do you need a divination service?" the diviner said. "I can do it for career, relationships, and personal fortune. The process is convenient and the price is very cheap, only twenty gold taels."
"Sorry, I... I don't really understand this, never mind," Yumilia said, waving her hand.
"That's alright, I can give you a free divination, hmm. How about we try it out?" the fortune teller said with a friendly smile.
Yumilia gave a helpless smile.
To be honest, she had encountered this kind of sales pitch quite a few times, and not knowing how to refuse, she could only bite the bullet and go along with it.
"Then, this will be troublesome."
"Hmm, may I trouble you for two minutes? Please extend your hand." The fortune teller turned and moved closer.
Yumilia extended her delicate, fair hand, and the fortune teller gently lifted it with his hand, which was gloved with black gauze, and carefully examined her palm.
"Hmm, your fortune line is very strong. You are a very lucky person. In addition, you are also a kind and sincere person. Hmm, you like to eat the pastries from that cake shop on Qing Teng Street, especially the lemon grapefruit cake."
"Eh?"
Yumilia was stunned. Even if the first part was just a polite compliment, how did she figure out the rest?
The fortune teller smiled slightly: "Because I also really like that shop's cakes. I met you in the shop before, you're such a cute little sprite, you're so easy to remember."
"Hehe, hehe."
Yumilia gave a polite laugh.
“You’re a very interesting person,” she said with a dry laugh.
"Also, are you currently dealing with something that's bothering you?" the fortune teller suddenly asked.
Yumilia froze, opening her mouth to ask, "What are you pointing at?"
"A power, a power from ancient times, powerful enough to change the world, a power forcibly bestowed, a power that makes you uneasy,"
The fortune teller stared at her palm, muttering in an unsettling tone.
"Furthermore, what else did you destroy with this power? What was it?"
She seemed to want to observe more closely, but Yumilia withdrew her hand as if she had been electrocuted, staring at her with fear in her eyes.
"Who...who are you?" she asked.
The fortune teller smiled slightly: "I've already said, I'm just a fortune teller."
She took out a business card and handed it to Yumilia: "I know what's troubling you. This is my business card. Maybe I can help you in the future."
Yumilia stared at the business card, which contained only one line of name:
Marlene Hellanells
"you"
She looked up, only to find that the other person had already disappeared.
"Why could she?" Yumilia thought of the divination she had just performed, her emotions still churning.
"Yumeria!"
Just then, Caesar's voice came from behind, and the black-haired boy jogged towards her.
"Sorry to keep you waiting. I had some trouble dealing with things on my end. Did you miss the group photo?" He wiped the sweat from his forehead.
“It’s alright,” Yumilia shook her head and put the business card away.
