Chapter 8
The next day, Jin Yang brought her little sister Zhou Xiu to the dormitory, "Chu Yang, we're here."
When Jin Yang and Zhou Xiu came over, Chu Yang was wiping her crystal ball. Even though the crystal ball was broken, she still took it out from time to time to clean it.
Chu Yang saw Jin Yang bringing a girl in and immediately put the crystal ball aside and covered it with a cloth. Zhou Xiu's first glance when she came in was at Chu Yang, who was quite good-looking after all. Her second glance was at the crystal ball in her hand, which was quickly covered by a cloth. Still, she believed in Chu Yang a little more in her heart.
Zhou Caicai and Qian Xin were not in the dormitory. They had gone to the library to study. Chu Yang was originally going to work but Jin Yang was bringing her a customer, so she didn't go today.
Chu Yang pulled Zhou Caicai's stool over. "Please sit down."
Zhou Xiu nodded and sat down on the chair. She then explained her reason for coming, "I just want to know if my boyfriend is cheating on me."
Chu Yang nodded. "Give me your hand."
Zhou Xiu held out her hand. Chu Yang grasped it and closed her eyes...
Zhou Xiu was still a little nervous. On one hand, she didn't want to be cheated on. On the other hand, she felt that if her boyfriend really had problems, she could get away in time.
After about three minutes, Chu Yang opened her eyes and let go of Zhou Xiu’s hand. She took a sip of brown sugar water first, then said seriously, "Your boyfriend is called Lin Yuan, right?"
Zhou Xiu nodded. She thought Jin Yang must have told her so she was not surprised.
But Jin Yang, who was on the side, immediately said, "Wow! Chu Yang, you can even know Xiu Xiu's boyfriend's name!"
Zhou Xiu looked at her, "Didn't you tell her?"
Jin Yang waved her hand, "I didn't."
Zhou Xiu swallowed hard and looked at Chu Yang. Chu Yang went on, "At the moment, your boyfriend is not cheating."
Zhou Xiu relaxed with relief, just about to smile, when Chu Yang added, "But he will in the future!"
Zhou Xiu's smile instantly froze. "How long in the future?" She then felt it was laughable to ask that when he was going to cheat in the future anyway, sooner or later.
Chu Yang said, "Two months later." She saw that two months later, the boy would meet a girl who pursued him. Moreover, that girl had a very good family background. The boy started to waver... There was no need to elaborate on what would happen afterward. Just typical scumbag behavior.
Tears instantly welled up in Zhou Xiu’s eyes. Jin Yang put a hand on Zhou Xiu’s back to gently comfort her.
"Thank you." Zhou Xiu took out a red envelope with 200 yuan. Then she left the dorm with Jin Yang.
After they left, Chu Yang opened the red envelope. It was her first business transaction, although Xu Zhao had given her money before, but at that time she had taken the initiative. So today was truly the first time she was paid.
Zhou Xiu calmed herself down, then exclaimed, "Oh! I forgot to ask how Lin Yuan cheated!"
Jin Yang was already cursing angrily, "Who cares how he cheats! This man is a scumbag anyway. Sister, go back and break up with him immediately!”
Zhou Xiu said, "Didn't your roommate say Lin Yuan won't cheat until two months later? But he hasn't cheated now. Can I change..."
As soon as Jin Yang heard her wanting to change the scumbag, she interrupted, “Sister! He’s a scumbag! You can’t change him even if you want to. There are so many decent men in this world, don't get hung up on this one. Even the one from high school was better than him!"
Zhou Xiu thought she had a point. Although she was still heartbroken, she was not blinded by love. "I still want to know how Lin Yuan cheated. Can you ask when you go back?"
Jin Yang nodded, "Okay. I’ll ask for the details. But you have to break up with that scumbag." In Jin Yang’s mind, Chu Yang was definitely never wrong.
"Okay, okay."
When Jin Yang returned to the dorm at night, she asked Chu Yang for more details and complained that Zhou Xiu had wanted to change the future. Then she asked, "Can the results of a prophecy be changed?"
Chu Yang nodded. "Yes." Like the bus incident last time, the result had been changed. "But not every outcome can be altered. For example, you can never change a person's heart."
Things have subjectivity and objectivity. If she knew an apple would rot in the future, but she ate that apple now, then that future with the rotten apple would disappear.
However, if she knew a person would stop liking you in the future, and you wanted to change the future to make them like you, that would be difficult. After all, liking is an emotion influenced by too many factors.
Jin Yang suddenly understood, "Right! Even if a person doesn't cheat with that particular person, maybe in the future they might cheat with someone else. We can't guarantee this person has really changed. So a scumbag is always a scumbag! His 'scumbag' property can never change!”
Zhou Caicai said to one side, "But isn't there a saying, ‘The prodigal son will return?’"
Jin Yang shook her head. "It’s better to just find someone else rather than waiting for a prodigal son to return. What if he never comes back? Why cling onto trash?”
Chu Yang didn't say anything. She respected others' choices.
In the past, she had made predictions for some unpleasant things to happen, but some people chose not to believe her, and even scolded her for cursing and harming people, claiming she must have used some dark arts.
Chu Yang felt that such people could only vent their emotions onto others because they didn't dare to face reality. So she usually didn't say too much or give suggestions. Just in case things went badly in the end and they blamed her. After all, she was just a witch, not a god. She didn't have the ability to bring the dead back to life.
On this end, Jin Yang had already called Zhou Xiu to tell her all the details. She cursed the scumbag afterward too. Future scumbags are scumbags as well! Why cling onto trash?
After Zhou Xiu hung up the phone, she didn't speak for a while. Soon, Lin Yuan called her. Zhou Xiu hesitated but still answered...
It turned out he had been working behind her back these days, just to buy her a gift. When they went shopping last time, she saw a dress she liked but it was too expensive then for her to buy. She didn't expect Lin Yuan to remember and work these days just to buy her that dress.
Zhou Xiu was suddenly somewhat moved. As she took the gift with her hand stretched out, Chu Yang's words flashed in her mind... Her smile froze on her face as she looked at Lin Yuan. Would such a person really cheat?
What if Jin Yang's roommate’s prediction was totally wrong?
Zhou Xiu hesitated. Was it true that someone in this world could predict the future? Even if she stated Lin Yuan's name correctly, couldn't it be that Jin Yang had told her but now forgot about it?
Maybe wait and see for now...
