Unconventional blind dates
Chapter 66 Fighting Against Fate
"That's impossible." Lu Li lied through his teeth. "Compared to appearance, figure, and temperament, I value spiritual compatibility more. You're not going to university? If you're not going to university, it'll be difficult for us to be a good match."
This was certainly not his true thought.
For him, appearance, physique, temperament, and personality are equally important.
As for whether or not to go to university... that's not that important.
But for teenagers, going to university is still better.
At the very least, a degree is a prerequisite for getting a government job or working for a large company.
And what's this about forever?
It's a bit selfish of him, but he hopes to die before his future partner so that he won't be the one to suffer the longing, pain, and loneliness.
However, if he were to meet Miss Bai and the others again in the future and be able to stay together forever, it would be difficult for him not to pass away first.
Ji Mo, however, had a different opinion: "Brother Lu Li, what's the point of going to university?"
"It has a brighter future."
"So what constitutes a more promising future?"
"Go to a big company to make money, or take the civil service exam. This way you can not only make money, but also have a stable job."
"So the ultimate goal is to earn enough money and ensure a stable life for the rest of your life?"
Lu Li thought about it and it seemed to make sense. "Strictly speaking, that's correct."
Ji Mo secretly covered her mouth and chuckled, "But Brother Lu Li, if I inherit two portions of the estate, it means I'll have three houses and at least four million in savings. In a city where the average monthly income is only around three thousand, is it really impossible to live there forever?"
Lu Li: "..."
What she said made perfect sense, leaving Mr. Lu speechless.
With these, one could truly be considered financially free in Los Angeles.
"Forget it, Brother Lu, you were right not to want me." Ji Mo suddenly became depressed. "My parents were killed because of me..."
"What do you mean by that? They died in a car accident, that has nothing to do with you."
Lu Li falls for the sob story.
Besides, she really is in a terrible situation.
Lu Li had just seen it too. Although she had a stunning figure and great fair skin, there were also very glaring bruises and signs of beatings on her skin.
It must have been her two cousins who did it, but her uncle and aunt didn't take it seriously.
They might actually know, but are pretending not to.
Her family of three was in a car accident, but she was the only survivor.
Therefore, she feels that she is the one who caused her parents' death.
Lu Li couldn't let her get stuck on this.
"No, I'm the one who killed her," Ji Mo said quietly. "From childhood, my relatives hated me, and my classmates at school gave me a nickname—'unlucky girl'."
"Beautiful women?" Lu Li nodded. "It's an undeniable fact that you're beautiful; they're just jealous of you."
"It's bad luck..." Ji Mo said, sounding a little downcast. "Anyone who cares about me or gets close to me will have bad luck, and in severe cases, it can even be life-threatening. My parents were killed because of me. And my best friend from elementary school, she fell into the river and drowned because of me..."
Lu Li scoffed, "How could that be? Everyone thinks they're the center of the world when they're young, but they all realize they aren't when they grow up. Do you know what the two most painful things in a person's life are?"
Ji Mo shook his head.
Lu Li smiled faintly, "One is discovering that their parents are not omnipotent; they are just ordinary people."
"Another thing is realizing that I'm just an ordinary person after all."
When he was sixteen or seventeen, he dreamed of gaining superhuman powers in the future.
When he was in his early twenties, he dreamed of traveling to other worlds.
When he was 24 or 25, he thought he could get a system to change his life.
Now that he's twenty-eight, his thoughts have shifted to wishing he could be reborn and go back to the past.
"Brother Lu Li, this isn't just my imagination; it's the truth." Ji Mo's expression was somewhat forlorn. "My uncle's family died in the same way."
Lu Li wanted to refute, but then she suddenly remembered that her uncle's family of four had indeed died in very bizarre ways.
They were all killed in various everyday accidents.
The crucial point is that the time between the events leading up to and following death was no more than one minute...
But in the end, he denied it, mainly to comfort the girl, "You're overthinking it. Nothing in this world is that outrageous, and besides, everything is fine for you now."
"That's why," Ji Mo sighed. "I've always been very lucky, but the price of good luck is that the people around me will passively start to have bad luck. The better my luck is, the worse their luck will be."
Lu Li laughed, "What kind of nonsense is that? Besides, you're lucky to be abused by your uncle's family every day and have your parents' inheritance stolen?"
"Because I survived the car accident, that was my good luck. The price was the death of my parents. Their luck was devoured by me."
Ji Mo's voice was extremely cold, and one could even say it was completely devoid of emotion.
This is because I've become completely numb.
"And not only did I survive, I also inherited their legacy."
"My good fortune after that is that I will no longer be abused by my uncle's family, and I may even inherit their estate, but the price... is the lives of all four of them."
"The elementary school friend I mentioned earlier, we got lost on a spring outing and picnic. I was rescued, but the price was that she fell into the river and drowned. And..."
Lu Li became increasingly alarmed as he listened.
Although his rational mind told him that this was all nonsense, the recent events... were indeed hard to explain.
Moreover, they all matched Ji Mo's words one by one.
But that's impossible! This is a normal worldview! In a normal worldview, there are no extraordinary beings!
If your worldview has changed, then it means a new monster girl is trying to arrange a blind date with you.
However, Lu Li did not receive any notification.
Moreover, the other party can only see his information in advance and apply for a blind date, but if he does not agree, the other party cannot come directly!
Thinking this to himself, and hearing that Ji Mo had only said half of what he wanted to say, he couldn't help but ask, "What else?"
"And you, Lu Li, have you been having a lot of bad luck lately?"
Lu Li was about to deny it, but the words wouldn't come out.
Indeed, he's had a particularly unlucky couple of days.
I can fall out of bed while sleeping, and my toothbrush handle breaks while I'm brushing my teeth.
My pants ripped open while I was walking, and I forgot my keys when I went out.
You can get your car scratched or have your window shattered by falling objects while driving, and you can even find bugs while eating hot pot!
Seeing Lu Li remain silent, Ji Mo continued, "It's because I wanted to see Brother Lu Li, to get to know Brother Lu Li, to talk to Brother Lu Li, and to get close to Brother Lu Li. So my good luck came. Brother Lu Li didn't call the police, or even if he wanted to, he would have failed. You could only take me in and chat with me, and become familiar with me."
"But the price... is that you, Brother Lu Li, will become unlucky, and this bad luck will gradually deepen until... you, Brother Lu Li, will die a violent death."
The chubby little girl suddenly put on a sad yet feigned nonchalant smile: "So, Brother Lu Li, I'll leave, so as not to hurt you..."
Lu Li was indeed quite worried.
But seeing her expression, he suddenly smiled.
He wouldn't care at all if it were a brat or a complete stranger.
Or if he lacks the ability, he has no way to deal with this kind of situation.
But things are different now! He's an extraordinary being!
So he looked at Ji Mo and said those words seriously, "My fate will be decided by myself, and so will yours! So don't worry, you won't be alone."
"If this damn fate really comes..."
He pulled out a cigarette, put it in his mouth, but didn't light it. Instead, he gave a confident smile. "Then let's fucking smash this damn fate!"
Ji Mo was taken aback, and Lu Li's confident smiling face gradually became blurry in his vision.
I haven't heard that sentence in so, so long...
"Brother Lu Li... what should I do?" Her voice was trembling with sobs.
Unfortunately, before Lu Li could shatter her fate, he shattered her mindset first.
"It's simple." Lu Li smiled slightly. "You have to go to school first."
Ji Mo: "..."
