Mo Jiang cried for a while. Ni Wulin who was beside her awkwardly patted on Mo Jiang’s back.
When Mo Jiang finally cald down, Ni Wilin withdrew her hand.
Yu Holea saw the entire interaction and was surprised. These two fight as if they are true enemy but in reality, they care for each other.
"Miss Yu," Ni Wulin began cautiously, "I don’t know if I should believe in this... prediction thing. But after seeing how Mo Jiang reacted to your words, I can’t deny that you know things others don’t. If you don’t mind can you read my palm too?"
Yu Holea chuckled,
"Sure."
Yu Holea smiled as Ni Wulin extended her hand, her fingers slightly trembling.
Mo Jiang, still wiping away the last of her tears, glanced over, her curiosity piqued despite her emotional exhaustion.
Yu Holea gently took Ni Wulin’s hand and examined her palm for a mont.
Her eyes scanned the lines, and then she closed her eyes briefly as if she were focusing on sothing unseen.
"Though you are a decisive person and never bow down to any injustice, you have faced many injustices on your own. But there’s a lot of uncertainty in your future."
Ni Wulin’s brow furrowed slightly. "Uncertainty? What do you an?"
Yu Holea traced a line on her palm with a light touch.
"You’ve been at a crossroads for a long ti, unsure whether to follow your passion or stay on the path you’re on now.
The decision you make soon will affect not just your career, but your relationships as well."
Ni Wulin blinked, her heart racing.
She didn’t speak for a mont, her mind racing back to the choices she had been grappling with in private.
Could Yu Holea really know about those things?
"What... what choice are you talking about?" Ni Wulin asked, her voice barely above a whisper.
Yu Holea smiled knowingly. "You already know what I’m talking about. Deep down, you’ve always known."
In reality, Ni Wulin was struggling with quitting the entertainnt industry and starting to produce her own films but she was always advised to start by acting and gradually progress to producing films.
Hence she forced herself to like acting and fought for every opportunity she could.
Ni Wulin felt her throat tighten.
"I... I don’t know if I’m ready," Ni Wulin said, her voice cracking slightly.
Yu Holea nodded.
"The future waits for no one. If you don’t take control, it will take control of you. But rember, your happiness matters too. Don’t sacrifice it for the sake of appearances."
Jung Xiao who had been silent till now suddenly asked,
"Can you...can you truly see and predict things? Then you should know how to exorcise ghosts too right?"
Yu Holea raised an eyebrow when she heard Jung Xiao’s words.
Jung Xiao may seem like a common person but in reality, she was the rich heiress of the Jung family in the north.
She had run away from her ho in hopes of making a na for herself, but her parents eventually found her and reached an agreent.
She will have one year to beco the A-Rank celebrity, if she can’t do so, then she will have to leave the entertainnt industry permanently and return to her ho to inherit the business.
Jung Xiao agreed.
If she wasn’t wrong then 2 months have already passed since the agreent was made and Jung Xiao was already cast in one of the famous director’s movies which was a feat on its own.
However, one thing that made Yu Holea rember Jung Xiao was... the black aura she was plagued by.
Dream Demon.
She was haunted by a person who feeds on her nightmares.
Coming back to reality, Yu Holea asked,
"I can do so. Is there anything that you would like my help in?"
Jung Xiao bit her lips nervously and thought for a while,
"I...I am suffering from a nightmare. For the past 2 months, I have been having a lot of nightmares and slowly my sleep quality is decreasing too.
Though I haven’t felt any paranormal activity near and I am sure no ghost is haunting ...I don’t know why I am having these nightmares.
I have t a psychologist and even she can’t find any cure for it. What should I do..."
Yu Holea listened intently to Jung Xiao’s words, her face unreadable.
She could sense the fear and desperation in Jung Xiao’s voice, though it was hidden behind her usual stoic expression.
Dream Demon...it wasn’t sothing the average person could detect or handle, and if left untreated, it could drive its host to madness or worse.
Yu Holea looked Jung Xiao in the eye and said softly,
"I understand what you’re dealing with. These nightmares aren’t just random dreams—they are caused by a Dream Demon."
Jung Xiao’s eyes widened slightly. "A... Dream Demon? Is that real?"
Yu Holea nodded.
"Yes. It preys on vulnerable minds, usually attaching itself to people who are under intense pressure or stress.
In your case, it’s feeding on your fear of failure and the pressure you’re under to succeed. That’s why it’s getting worse."
Jung Xiao’s hands clenched into fists. "Is there... a way to get rid of it?"
"There is," Yu Holea said calmly.
"But it’s not simple. The Dream Demon has been feeding on your nightmares for two months, which ans it’s grown strong. But first, for that, we need to find that Dream Demon."
"Is it not a spirit? How can a spirit be found?" Jung Xiao asked.
"Well... it’s not a spirit for sure. I can’t help until and unless you make paynt."
"Tsk...tsk. You are really sothing. You have found such a casual way to scam people?" A mocking voice sounded.
The four won turned around and saw Vivian who had a mocking expression on her face.
"Yu Holea you will not stop scamming people right? Honestly, I am impressed. By their face, I can tell that they almost believe you. Truly you do have so power in terms of sales.
How about this, you stop scamming your colleagues, and my cousin and I will get you a job in the Qiao Family.
After all, I am my cousin’s favorite sister."
Yu Holea smiled,
"Sure. But what will be my salary?"
Vivian was stunned by Yu Holea’s response, but she continued to keep her taunting and said,
"With your skills, you should definitely have an annual package of more than you actually worth right? How about 12 yuan? After all, you are not worth more than 1 yuan."
"1 yuan...hm...indeed it’s too much for ."
Vivian saw Yu Holea stepping down and decided to bully her more,
"I will take that as an agreent. Now resign from the movie and like a good dog, and leave my cousin’s life too. He doesn’t need a parasite like you in his life."
For the next 2 minutes, Vivian continued to insult.
When the other three won ca to their senses they shouted,
"What are you saying?"
But the next mont, Yu Holea lifted her hand and said to them,
"It’s alright my work is done. Let’s go."
"Uh? What do you an?" All three of them were confused.
Even Vivian was confused.
Yu Holea sent the recording to Qiao Jun.
As far as she knows, Qiao Jun would definitely feel sorry for her, right?
Yu Holea guessed it right because she soon received a call from Qiao Jun.
"Where are you?"
"Shooting location." Yu Holea said softly.
There was silence on the other side of the phone.
"I am sorry." Yu Holea apologized. The mistake was at her end. If apologizing could save their relationship especially when it was her mistake, then she would gladly do so.
It wasn’t like Qiao Jun never apologized to her. Whenever he felt he was wrong, he would apologize.
So why can’t she?
"I know I shouldn’t have questioned. I know you would never look at your cousin like the way I described it. But can you please stop ignoring ?" Yu Holea said softly.
The rim of her eyes turned red.
Her heart wrenched.
When she first avoided Qiao Jun, she didn’t know how it felt to be ignored, but now...she knew it.
And it hurts.
It hurts so much that...Yu Holea wanted to cry.
Won are strong. But being strong doesn’t an they don’t have weakness.
Even if they gain everything in life like money, fa, or influence, the reality is they are human in the end.
A human needs love. Once they start to age, they realize how important love is. How important a partner is.
A partner who would understand them. Love them. Understand them. Support them in their hard tis. And accompany them in the mundane life.
Yu Holea saw Qiao Jun as that partner.
Because Qiao Jun did all those things for her. And now when she was in his position, she realized how difficult it was.
Love is not as simple as it seems after all...
