Stepdaughter of a wealthy family? The little darling of a Beijing tycoon

Just as the live stream was filled with heated debate, a sudden connection request broke the brief commotion.

Shen Jingshu tapped her fingertip lightly to connect the screen.

On the other end of the camera, a woman dressed in a well-tailored business suit appeared.

Her makeup was exquisite, her posture was upright, and her brows exuded the competence and sharpness of a workplace elite, clearly indicating that she was a high-ranking white-collar worker.

She adjusted the camera slightly, seemingly both nervous and expectant.

Shen Jingshu lowered her gaze slightly and saw the ID of her live stream room—"Yunyun is very happy".

The name contrasted sharply with her solemn expression, as if telling a story of a life that seemed perfect but was actually full of hidden turmoil.

"Hello, Master."

Xu Yun took a deep breath and spoke first, her voice carrying a hint of weariness and pleading, "My name is Xu Yun. I'm calling today to ask you to do some divination for me. Lately, I seem to be experiencing a lot of bad luck and feeling uneasy."

Just as the live stream was filled with heated debate, a sudden connection request broke the noise.

Shen Jingshu tapped her fingertip lightly, connecting the line.

Across the camera is a woman with outstanding temperament. She is wearing a well-tailored haute couture business suit, her makeup is exquisite and appropriate, and she exudes a capable and composed elite aura. She is clearly a high-level white-collar worker who works hard in the city's CBD.

And her life truly lives up to this ID; she is an absolute role model in the eyes of others.

Both her parents were university professors, and she came from a refined and respectable family. She received a good upbringing from a young age. She was also exceptionally talented, gaining admission to a top international university. After graduation, she successfully entered a well-known company and worked her way up to the position of department head at the age of thirty, where her career flourished.

Besides her successful career, her love life is also very fulfilling. She has a boyfriend of many years, and their relationship is stable. They have already decided to hold their wedding this May Day and are currently busy preparing for the wedding. She should be filled with joy and waiting for the auspicious day.

However, recently, Xu Yun has been restless and uneasy all day long. She is always filled with a nameless fear and feels that something bad is about to happen.

She shared her anxiety with her boyfriend and best friend, and they both agreed that she was suffering from pre-wedding jitters, a result of the tension and resistance she felt about getting married.

Her best friend offered thoughtful advice, suggesting that she temporarily put aside the marriage, let go of her worries, and enjoy a period of single life to relax her mind and body, which would naturally dissipate her anxiety.

But only Xu Yun herself knew that this unease was not as simple as pre-wedding jitters; it was an inexplicable premonition that weighed heavily on her heart and could not be shaken off.

She looked at the camera, her eyes filled with weariness and confusion, and said softly, "Master, I always feel uneasy, always afraid that something bad is going to happen. Could you please take a look and tell me if I'm just overthinking it, or if there really is a problem?"

After listening to her boyfriend and best friend's advice, Xu Yun gradually came to agree with this statement.

To alleviate the so-called pre-wedding pressure, she simply packed her bags, moved out of the bridal suite that was being decorated, and moved into a studio apartment not far from her company.

When she moved out and lived alone, she did feel much more relaxed at first, and her tense nerves were relieved. She really thought that she was just experiencing pre-wedding anxiety and that it would get better after a while.

She even went to see a psychologist and received professional counseling, but the inexplicable unease in her heart never dissipated. She still felt uncomfortable all over, always feeling that something was wrong, but she couldn't quite put her finger on it.

That afternoon, she met a client at the coffee shop downstairs from her company. After discussing work, the client left first, and she sat alone, lost in thought. Out of boredom, she casually scrolled through her phone and accidentally clicked into Shen Jingshu's live stream.

She stayed in the live stream for a long time, watching the entire process of Zhang Xiaolian reviewing the murder case, and was deeply shocked.

Seeing that Shen Jingshu had started to accept divination, she immediately decided to spend some money to have her own divination done and seek answers to her questions.

For her, the donation of a sports car in the live stream was nothing more than the cost of two cups of coffee, insignificant. As long as it could resolve her inner turmoil, it was well worth it.

Shen Jingshu quietly looked at Xu Yun in the camera. Her makeup was exquisite, her outfit was neat and efficient, and her aura was sharp and decisive. She was clearly a successful career woman.

Her gaze fell on Xu Yun's face, and her fingertips made a slight calculation. In just a moment, she saw through Xu Yun's current predicament.

"You've been feeling restless and inexplicably irritable lately, and your temper is worse than usual. Everyone says it's pre-wedding anxiety, and you've even started to believe it yourself, haven't you?"

Shen Jingshu's voice was calm, yet every word was precise and hit the nail on the head.

Xu Yun's eyes lit up, and she nodded quickly, her tone full of agreement: "Yes, Master, you're so accurate! That's exactly how I am. I'm always feeling anxious, and I can't muster the energy to do anything. I've seen a psychologist and had counseling sessions, but it didn't help at all. I still feel uncomfortable all over, and I always feel like something bad is going to happen."

Shen Jingshu gently shook her head and slowly explained, "You need to understand that this isn't just a psychological issue, but rather a connection to destiny and fortune. In metaphysics, someone like you, with a privileged family background, outstanding abilities, and a smooth life, is inherently blessed with pure fortune. With such abundant fortune, one's perception of misfortune and change becomes exceptionally acute. When something unfavorable is about to happen to you, you'll have an intuition to warn you. This intuition manifests as your current anxiety and unease, and is definitely not pre-wedding jitters."

Xu Yun's heart tightened upon hearing this, her brows furrowing tightly, still somewhat confused: "Master, do you mean that something bad will soon happen to me?"

"Exactly." Shen Jingshu's tone was firm, without the slightest ambiguity.

Xu Yun panicked and quickly asked, "Please tell me, Master, what bad things will happen to me?"

Shen Jingshu gently reminded her, "Think back, what's the most important thing in your life recently? In this life, the most important things are nothing more than going to school, getting married, and having children. You're currently stuck on the marriage stage."

Xu Yun, a graduate of a top university, was quick-witted and instantly understood Shen Jingshu's implication. Her face paled slightly: "Master, do you mean... this marriage of mine is not a joyous occasion, but rather a disaster? For me, the disadvantages far outweigh the advantages?"

Shen Jingshu nodded gently: "That's right."

"That's impossible!"

Xu Yun blurted out, her voice filled with disbelief, "Master, you don't know this, but Aze and I have been together since college, almost ten years. Whether it's our lifestyle habits or our work philosophies, we are incredibly compatible. How could someone so well-matched not be suitable for marriage?"

Looking at the determination in her eyes, Shen Jingshu calmly exposed the truth: "The compatibility you talk about is just wishful thinking on your part from beginning to end. Are you sure your boyfriend thinks the same way?"

"certainly!"

Xu Yun immediately retorted, her tone firm, "He has told me more than once that meeting me is the greatest luck of his life."

Seeing that she still didn't believe her, Shen Jingshu stopped beating around the bush and went straight to the point: "Your boyfriend's name is Gu Ze, and he's not from here. He's a phoenix from a remote mountain area, and his family background is completely different from yours, right?"

Xu Yun paused for a moment, then nodded frankly: "Yes, but I never care about any of that. I'm my parents' only daughter, and my family is well-off. I love him as a person, not his background or family wealth. Master, what does this have to do with my marriage being a disaster?"
