Mind reading saves the whole family; I'm firmly in the role of a charlatan.

Chapter 38 This is also possible?
Knowing the whole story, Du Yuxi and Xi Jingyue felt much the same way as Du Anrao, and their gazes toward Tang Qianqian were filled with sympathy.

Tang Qianqian didn't notice the subtle changes in the others. Seeing Du Anrao freeze again after hearing her surname, she felt a strange sense of foreboding.

"Master, is there anything wrong with my surname?"

Du Anrao seemed to wake from a dream: "No, no, your surname is quite nice. It's just this potted plant..."

What's wrong with this flower?

"It's not that this flower is bad, but it's not really suitable for being placed on an office desk, where people spend a lot of time with it."

Having foreseen the tragic end of the person before him, Du Anrao gritted his teeth and decided to make the potted flower take the blame.

"The June Snow has a rather uncommon name: Hourglass Tree. As I just mentioned in the finance department, hourglasses are considered unlucky, as they can lead to financial loss."

As soon as Du Anrao finished speaking, Tang Qianqian couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.

The people around her were already paying close attention to her, and upon seeing this, they all turned to look at her.

Tang Qianqian realized she had overreacted and said awkwardly, "A couple of days ago, I encountered an old man trying to scam me while I was riding my bike to work. There were no security cameras at that intersection, and I was in a hurry to get to work, so I ended up having to pay him 3,000 yuan to settle the matter. I guess that counts as losing money?"

You should know that although Xisheng Entertainment is a well-known company in the industry, she is just an ordinary employee. Three thousand is equivalent to more than half a month's salary for her. Tang Qianqian felt the pinch for a long time.

Now that she knows the undeserved misfortune she suffered was most likely caused by this potted plant, Tang Qianqian felt like smashing it.

With such a concrete example as proof, the way people who were originally skeptical of Master Du Anrao looked at her changed instantly.

Little did he know, Du Anrao was still completely bewildered at that moment.

[This is even allowed?!]

Du Yuxi and Xi Jingyue: "Pfft..."

However, in order to maintain his public image, Du Anrao, no matter how excited he was inside, still put on a pleased look of "a promising young man".

Xi Jing was both annoyed and amused, and secretly cursed in his heart: "Little liar."

"In addition, although this flower is elegant, it is full of yang energy and has a foul smell when it blooms. Although it is not strong and is not poisonous, prolonged contact can still have a certain impact on human health."

Tang Qianqian nervously patted her chest: "I've been feeling a tightness in my chest lately, it's been a bit uncomfortable. I was thinking of going to the hospital to get checked out when I had some free time, but I've been quite busy these past few days, so I've put it off. Could it be..."

It goes without saying what the public relations department has been busy with these past few days; Du Anrao already had a general idea after hearing her description.

[Is it possible that you've been working too hard and staying up late lately, which is probably not the cause?]

"Pfft..." Du Yuxi almost burst out laughing, and quickly covered her mouth and lowered her head to hide it.

Fortunately, everyone's attention was on Tang Qianqian and Du Anrao, so they didn't notice anything unusual about her.

Du Anrao sighed with feigned profundity: "I'm afraid that's it. Moreover, I see that Miss Tang's forehead is dull and her eyes are dark. If you continue to be so careless, it will be bad for your health, and you may suffer a bloody disaster."

"Bloodshed?" Tang Qianqian was shocked. She never expected that a word she only heard on TV would be used to describe her.

In the past, she would have taken it as a joke at most, but after what had just happened, she felt a chill run through her body and didn't know what to do for a moment.

Li Zhaoyang and the others didn't expect that Du Anrao would cause such a bloody disaster for one of their own employees before even meeting their company's artists. Hong Shitao was also panicked; after all, it was one of his employees, and if something happened to him while he was on duty, he, as his direct supervisor, would definitely not be able to escape responsibility.

"She's just been staying up too late lately, how did that lead to some kind of bloodshed?"

"Isn't it true that staying up too late makes you more likely to run into a bloody accident? Don't people often... die suddenly from staying up late?" A male employee next to Tang Qianqian muttered quietly.

In an instant, the atmosphere in the entire department visibly froze.

That's right. They're all people who work long hours and stay up late. Today, Tang Qianqian might die suddenly, but who knows if they themselves will die suddenly tomorrow?

For a time, many people began to weigh the pros and cons in their minds: money or life.

Tang Qianqian couldn't help but widen her eyes in surprise, and the more she thought about it, the more she felt that the symptoms she had just described resembled the signs of impending sudden death.

"Master... is the bloodshed you mentioned sudden death?"

Du Anrao hadn't refuted Tang Qianqian earlier because he was intentionally trying to steer the conversation in that direction. Now that his goal had been achieved, he quickly nodded in agreement.

Tang Qianqian gasped, and Li Zhaoyang's face darkened as well: "Do you often work overtime until very late?"

Fearing the backlash would fall on him, Hong Shitao cautiously defended himself, saying, "It's just an occasional all-nighter..."

"From now on, we'll arrange shifts for all-nighters. Each person's continuous overtime cannot exceed six hours, and no more than forty-eight hours per month. Overtime pay will be doubled." Li Zhaoyang took a deep breath and turned to look at Tang Qianqian. "You don't need to work overtime for a while. Go to the hospital tomorrow for a full checkup. I'll approve the leave, and the company will reimburse the checkup fee."

"Long live the Chairman!"

"Long live the Chairman!"

"..."

Many of the employees in the public relations department are young people who have just entered the workforce. When they heard about this tangible new benefit, they couldn't help but cheer loudly.

Tang Qianqian was delighted to hear that she wouldn't have to work overtime anymore and that her hospital check-ups would be reimbursed.

"Thank you, Chairman. Thank you, Chairman." He then looked at Du Anrao with anticipation.

After a moment's thought, Du Anrao realized that although Tang Qianqian had encountered the crime scene because she was working late, preventing her from working overtime would eliminate the possibility of her returning home late, which, logically speaking, should change her fate.

But who knows, maybe one night she'll suddenly decide to go out for a stroll again, and they'll bump into each other again?
After thinking it over, Du Anrao decided to add another layer of protection for her: "June Snow also has the meaning of snow falling in June."

"Snow in June?" Du Yuxi frowned slightly. "That's..."

Du Anrao glanced at his fourth sister: "It's the one you're thinking of, 'The Injustice to Dou E.' Simply put, it means that you may encounter an injustice that you yourself cannot explain in the near future."

That's not entirely untrue. Once you're dead, your posthumous reputation is left to be speculated and judged by others. Can you really expect to jump out of your coffin to prove your innocence?

Du Yuxi suddenly realized what had happened after Tang Qianqian's death, as Du Anrao had just mentioned.

It's tragic enough to die innocently, but what's even more tragic is that you can't find peace after death. You're used and slandered, and your loved ones are dragged down with you by unwarranted accusations.
