You Owe Me, My Love Chapter 423

Chapter 423 Good Or Evil

After meeting her gaze, the guru flashed a smile. “You changed your looks and identity, but your fate remains the same. Have a seat, miss.”

Bai Rong froze instantly.

She knew all fraudsters were experts at observing their clients’ expressions. Through their observation, they could obtain useful information to carry out fraud.

However, she was still surprised at how the guru stated that she changed her looks and identity without hesitation. Slowly, she took a seat.

The guru handed her a calligraphy brush. “Write down one word and tell me what you wish to know.”

Bai Rong took the brush from him and wrote down the word “fate.” Solemnly, she replied, “I wish to know how to change a misfortune so that my loved one and I will be safe.”

The guru looked at the word she wrote. “Man is the master of his own fate. Miss, you already have an answer. As a psychologist, you can influence a person’s thoughts easily. There’s nothing you can’t do, right?”

Bai Rong glanced at him in shock. She had undergone plastic surgery, so she no longer looked like the past Bai Rong anymore.

Back then, Bai Rong had appeared in various papers and magazines, so it was normal if he knew she was a psychologist. However, she was here as Wu Nian. Hence, she couldn’t believe how easily he stated her expertise without even needing to sound her out.

“You mean I can ensure me and my loved one’s safety if I carry out my plan?” Bai Rong pressed on.

The guru smiled. “In your past life, you killed a lot of people to survive. That was why you went through countless hardships in this lifetime,” he explained. “Never mind that. After all, you’re meant to be an accomplished person, so it’s normal to get blood on your hands. Most importantly, don’t leave any traces behind. If you don’t execute it perfectly, you’ll disappear off the face of the earth.”

Bai Rong’s heart sank. “Get blood on my hands? What do you mean by I’ll disappear from this world if I leave traces behind? Are you insinuating something? Don’t beat around the bush!”

“You need to figure that out yourself,” replied the guru calmly. “That is all I know.”

Bai Rong rose to her feet and glared at him. “I know fortune-tellers like to be vague and leave the rest to our imagination. In reality, you’re just playing around with words. Forget it.”

The guru burst out laughing. “If you don’t believe me, why are you even here in the first place?”

“But you didn’t tell me what I wish to know.”

“I can only predict your fortune, but I’m not a prophet who can tell you the past and the future. I also don’t have the ability to change anything. Since I’ve already given you a direction, the rest is up to you.”

“How? You were so vague, saying that I had to leave no traces behind to be safe. How can I do that? You’re nothing but a fraud!” Bai Rong announced angrily and spun on her heels to leave.

“Wait a minute, miss.” The guru stood up. NôvelDrama.Org exclusive content.

Bai Rong obliged and glanced at him.

A smile flitted across his lips. “You’re indeed a psychology expert. I’ve got to hand it to you.”

Bai Rong furrowed her brows quizzically. “Do you know who I am?”

“I worked that out according to your fate. I don’t actually know you,” responded the guru gently.

Bai Rong plopped down on the chair again. “Well, I’m curious as to what ‘fate’ means.”

The guru sat down and pointed at the word she wrote earlier.

“Miss, your job is related to the mouth. When you came in earlier, you looked at me as though you knew everything. That was because you thought I make accurate predictions by observing others. You’re a certified and famous expert in your industry, so it makes sense that you’re good at reading expressions.”

He continued calmly, “However, it also insinuates that you are stepping on top of some influential people whom you buried with your own hands.”

“Did you work everything out using this word?” Bai Rong was doubtful.

The guru flashed a smile wordlessly.

“What if I write another word now?” Bai Rong took the brush again.

“There’s no second chance in life, so it’s useless to write another word,” remarked the guru coolly.

Bai Rong paused and put the brush down. Then, she got up slowly and took a long glance at the guru before heading to the door.

“Miss, remember to leave through the back door,” reminded the guru.

“Why?” Bai Rong was puzzled.

“Your husband doesn’t believe in this. If you leave through the entrance, he won’t enter this building,” he told her confidently.

Oh, wow. He’s right. I wonder if there’s a surveillance camera outside. Otherwise, how did he know about that?

Lowering her gaze, she trudged out the back door and replayed the guru’s words in her mind. You’re meant to be an accomplished person. It’s normal to get blood on your hands. Most importantly, don’t leave any traces behind. If you don’t execute it flawlessly, you’ll disappear off the face of the earth.

Hmm, get blood on my hands? Disappear off the face of the earth…

Bai Rong sat down on the wooden bench underneath a ginkgo tree in silence. Dazedly, she stared at the smoke rising from the burning incense.

After some time, Gu Mingchen strode out.

Seeing his gloomy expression, Bai Rong sprang up anxiously and went to grab his arm.

Gu Mingchen’s gaze was full of affection, but he said nothing.

“What did he tell you?” asked Bai Rong nervously.

“He’s a fraudster. I don’t believe a word he said,” Gu Mingchen answered sternly.

In other words, the guru had said something he didn’t want to hear, which explained his foul mood.

Bai Rong didn’t point it out. Instead, she asked, “What word did you write?”

“Bai, from your name, Bai Rong,” responded Gu Mingchen calmly. “Let’s go and pray in the temple.”

“Sure.” She didn’t press on and left with Gu Mingchen to buy some joss sticks.

After praying sincerely, Bai Rong glanced at Gu Mingchen.

The man was muttering something with his eyes closed. There was a sorrowful air about him as he offered his sincerest prayer.

As far as she remembered, he had never believed in this.

All of a sudden, bitterness washed over her.

The guru must’ve said something horrible to him.

That’s why he’s afraid.

I can’t believe someone as tough as him is actually scared right now.

Her heart softening, she took his slightly icy hand and grinned.

I swear I will protect you even if I have to get blood on my hands.

When I was a doctor, I saved lives and delivered babies. But my life was full of misfortunes.

Let me descend to evilness, then.
