"What do you an by a blood spill? Your empty words don't scare ! Pffft!" The bald guy said. He started to walk towards them furiously.
POM!!
A beer bottle fell right on top of the bald guy's head. The sound broke the silence of the night.
Foosh!
Red hot blood was gushing from his head, not showing any signs of slowing down. "Ouch….This f*cking hurts…." He dropped and rolled on the ground in agonizing pain, clutching his head.
"Do you believe
now? I told you there will be a blood spill but you chose not to believe ." Chen said, confident.
Everyone around him was stunned. The back alley was near the karaoke. It was pretty normal for bottles to fall from the building. But, how did Chen know when and where this bottle would drop?
"Can you foresee the future?" Lan blinked her eyes, they were as shiny as the stars in the sky. She was curious.
Chen stiffened, and then nodded his head and said, "Yes. I know a little about foreseeing the future. If you are interested, I can predict your future for you."
"Bastard! Stop making up all this shit! Just a one-ti prediction and you consider yourself a true master?" said the Fire "Grim Reaper" Boss.
"You don't believe ?" Chen looked at the face of the leader of the group and looked into his past. "Both of your parents have passed away. You have walked alone for ten years. Also, you have suffered a lot to earn this position. Other than that, you are living a luxurious life right now. But, there's sothing in your mind that is currently pressuring you. You want to be more powerful. Am I correct?"
After listening to all these, all his followers were even more stunned that before. All of them knew that their boss had beco a gangster ten years ago. And, that he had slowly worked his way up to beco the boss. Above him, there were more powerful gangs pressuring him. And, it was hard for him to expand his power. Chen got everything right. This was a truly divine prediction. However, the boss shook his head and said, "Everyone knows about my past. That's not a prediction. Are you treating
like an idiot?!"
"But, I'm not from the underground world." Chen twitched his lips and said, "Fine. More recent news then. Hmm.. Your wife left you yesterday! She is a good woman. Also, she left because she was angry at you!"
"What the f*ck is happening right now? How do you even know that?" The boss was stunned, his eyes wide. The incident had just happened last night. He had not shared this with anyone because it was a shaful thing. He didn't expect Chen to know about this matter. This was crazy.
Again, everyone around him was stunned by what he just said. Lan's mouth was half opened as she stared at Chen with her beautiful eyes. She looked really cute.
"Master, you are my dear master! I'm impressed by your prediction ability! I'm now convinced!"
The boss' attitude toward him had completely changed. He begged Chen, "I regret making her leave , Master, please teach
how to make her co back to . Please!"
"I can help you but you must promise not to disturb my friend again." Chen tapped Lan's shoulder. Lan was still in his embrace, stunned.
"Don't worry, master! If you are willing to help , from this mont onwards, you will be my dear brother and she will be my sister-in-law. I will respect and love the both of you!" The boss thumped on his chest as he made his promise.
"What kind of nonsense is that? What do you an by sister-in-law?" Lan snapped back to reality and her face reddened. She quickly pulled away from Chen. The combination of shyness and her beauty was perfect. It made her so lovely. Chen's heart was racing. The gangster around him were moved by her beautiful movents. But, Chen was beside her, none of them dared to make a move on her.
"Wait here! I need so ti alone!" Chen instructed. Then, he walked away from them. He turned on his cellphone and found the three charms of marriage inside his treasure chest. He figured these charms will be able to help him.
[Please write down the nas of two person on this charm. The two people will be married. The rate of success is fully dependent on the individuals. Do you want to withdraw it?]
"There's no guaranteed success? This is bullshit!" Chen looked disappointed but he clicked withdraw without hesitation. The value of this item is rather low since it did not have a 100% success rate. Thus, it was totally fine to give out as a present.
"Take this charm and write down your na and your wife's na." Chen handed over the charm to the boss. His wife was a nice lady and he really wanted to beco a better husband. The charm would very likely work for them.
"I'm done writing." The boss did it as fast as possible.
"All is done. IWhen you go back, I want you to beco a vegetarian and pray to God. She will definitely co back to you," Chen said.
"Becoa vegetarian and pray to God?" The boss hesitated.
"I always fall asleep when I pray and a no-at diet is a pure torture for . Can I….."
"Cut the crap! Just believe
and do it. Don't bla
if your wife is gone forever. Also, your followers should beco vegetarians and pray to God as well. It is a show of good faith," Chen said, and gave him a slight smile.
Actually, there was no need to beco a vegetarian and pray to God to use the Charm of Marriage. Chen did it on purpose to punish this group of gangsters that did no good to the society.
The boss nodded and said, "Sure! Sure! Sure! I will listen to the master! Before my wife cos back to , I will make surethat all my followers are vegetarians and pray to God with , every single day."
His followers were devastated. "Boss, please don't do this to us! We can probably hold on for a day or two at most. Heck, instead, we will beco a group of monks if your wife does not to co back to you."
"Cut the crap! Just believe in Master Chen! Let's go! We should leave these two to have so alone ti." The boss trusted Chen fully. He commanded his followers to leave the place while scolding them.
"You are finally safe."
Lan patted on her chest and said in a serious tone, "Thank you for saving . You may leave your number with . I can buy you a al so day." She was as cool as she usually was, after she had cald herself down -- that made her even more gorgeous and perfect.
"So gorgeous…" Chen was stunned for a short while, and he handed his phone number to her with a smile on his face.
"Don't try to sweet talk . I do not like guys who sweet talk all the ti." Lan grumbled playfully. She took a look at Chen and said, "I shall leave first. This weekend, it's a date then."
"You don't have to rush! I'm going the sa way as well. Also, I'm from Green Vine University like you." Chen quickly followed her.
"What a coincidence! I can't believe we are from the sa university."
"Well, I call this fate."
"You are really good at prediction. Where did you learn all these tricks?"
"It's self-taught."
"Does the charm work? They will co back and beat you up if it doesn't work."
"Don't worry. It's from the Moonlord. It will definitely work!"
"What do you an by the Moonlord?"
*Cough*
"I ant that the moon is really big and round today."
The two of them walked back to the university together. Lan's cool factor also included the fact that she was a woman of few words. However, this ti she opened up herself and started to chat with Chen. It was joyful talking to her. Chen walked her back to her dorm and said goodbye to her.
His three roommates were gathered around the computer, looking at sothing. But when they saw Chen entering, they quickly flipped the screen shut.
"Third brother! You're back?" Eldest brother Zhou Zitao and second brother Zheng Fengyi were nervous when they saw him.
"What are you guys watching?" Chen asked curiously.
"Now won't be a good ti to find out. So, it's better for you not to ask," Forth brother Li Ming spoke up.
"I'm really fine! Why would I be sad?" Chen asked.
"Let
watch! Curiosity kills the cat!"
Li hesitated for a while before turned the screen around. He said nervously, "Third brother, you must not break down…."
