The recent data is a bit disheartening, but I have to persevere regardless. As long as there are people reading my book, I will make an effort to write. Readers, rember to give so feedback, Fu Zi doesn’t have any other requests, just wants to gather more opinions, including your preferences for characters, and any plot criticism is fine. I’m writing a new book recently, and I can’t afford to ss it up...

When Su Ziceng told Yan Wuxu about her thoughts of giving up on Hang Yishao, Yan Wuxu kept recomnding Pello, so often and with such an enticing voice that Su Ziceng couldn’t help but suspect sothing fishy between them.
"Pello is the kind of man you can comfortably bring ho to et your mother and sister," Yan Wuxu’s comnt made Su Ziceng sowhat moved.
"As for why I don’t choose him," Yan Wuxu smiled sowhat powerlessly, "he has no money." Su Ziceng couldn’t help but admire Yan Wuxu for her straightforward reply, not hiding her desire for fa and fortune at all, she is, in a sense, a "simple" person.
"A rabbit doesn’t eat the grass by its burrow, I refuse to believe, in a large Mo City, aside from Hang Yishao and Pello, there isn’t a suitable ’grass’ for , Su Ziceng." Su Ziceng waved her hand in denial.
The two verbally shared their reasons, but deep down, they had already reached a silent understanding. Pello’s eyes were too piercingly clean, under such a gaze, everyone’s darkest secrets couldn’t hide.
The beginning is always especially difficult; Su Ziceng felt like a snail shrinking into its shell, not knowing which direction to take.
Since the first palmistry Divination class, Yuhua’s God Stick’s classes entered a stage of fiddling with mysterious things, using various props, playing God with the Crystal Ball, in front of which the girls were already excited.
Yuhua’s God Stick had a bunch of people gazing at the Crystal Ball that only showed reflections, saying if anyone saw star-like specks of light inside the sphere, they would have good fortune. So everyone was bending over backwards, vying to stare at the Crystal Ball.
Su Ziceng lazily sat in the corner, opening the incense burner, shaking out so ash.
"Don’t believe in those Western things?" The bamboo stick probed into the ash, making a clockwise motion, drawing a maze-like pattern in the ash, "Just walk the maze then, to pass the ti."
The girls around were still anxious about the lack of movent from the Crystal Ball. Su Ziceng glanced at the not-so-complex maze pattern, following the ash with her finger, and started to trace it out.
There were six main paths, with each leading to five side paths; all in all, there were dozens of different ways to go. As ti ticked by, Su Ziceng felt annoyed; after trying many paths, none were viable.
"Have you ever thought that this might be a dead maze? It appears to have paths, but actually, there’s none," Yuhua’s God Stick, standing beside her, spoke as if his voice ca from the skies, hollow and intriguing.
"A dead end? Are you trying to make a fool of , fortune teller!" Su Ziceng swept her hand across, the dozens of paths instantly disappearing into dust.
"Playing tricks is not necessarily a bad thing," Yuhua’s God Stick took an unburnt piece of incense from the Furnace Tripod, gently waving it towards the Crystal Ball.
A spark of fire is enough to ignite a star-filled sky upon the Crystal Ball. The glassy surface of the Crystal Ball suddenly lit up with countless fireflies. The girls all cheered: "I see it, I see it." Even those who were usually composed like Wen Maixue and Yan Wuxu couldn’t help but jump for joy.
"I don’t believe in those things either. It’s just that after doing so much fortune-telling, even I’ve started to believe in it; this is human life, ’manmade destiny’," Yuhua’s God Stick used the bamboo stick to gather the gray ashes back together, "Stop being stubborn, if you can get out of a dead end unscathed, isn’t it a form of rebirth?"
Yuhua’s God Stick’s words, as usual, were perplexing; Su Ziceng rubbed her own palm lines, which were covered in ash that seed to seep into her skin no matter how hard she tried to clean it.
The next lesson on "Marriage Geomancy" also beca mystical. Theoretically, Fei Lin had studied abroad and didn’t know whether it was through learning or being influenced, but the content of the class surprisingly involved planting trees.
The word "marriage" is indeed too early for these unmarried young girls, so the pressing matter is to have "Flourishing Peach Blossom" luck. For the students, it’s more practical to plant peach blossoms at the school where they live for eight months of the year, rather than at their hos where they only stay for a few months.
