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

"You don't have much savings. But your boyfriend's son works at an insurance company. The father and son have been plotting to get you a high-value accident insurance policy."

After you got your marriage certificate, Lao Zhao suggested that since you're older, you don't need to have a big banquet. Instead, you should follow the example of young people and go on a honeymoon trip.

His son was very enthusiastic and took the initiative to handle all the itinerary, arranging a cruise trip.

Once the cruise ship is sailing in the middle of the vast ocean, Lao Zhao will find an opportunity to push you overboard from the deck, making it look like an accidental fall.

Afterwards, the father and son will be able to rightfully receive millions in insurance compensation.

This huge sum of money was just enough to fund his son's wedding.

"You can make a fortune out of thin air without spending much money."

After hearing Shen Jingshu's words, Hua Kaifugui felt a chill run down his spine, his whole body went cold, and he was so scared that his hands and feet went numb.

She suddenly remembered.

Just as Lao Zhao proposed to her and finalized the marriage arrangements, the two agreed to go to the Civil Affairs Bureau to register their marriage the next day.

Xiao Zhao was very enthusiastic at the time, saying that she had just bought an insurance policy for both elders and asked her to sign it.

Thinking that the young man worked for an insurance company and meant well, she had no suspicions at the time and signed her name without thinking.

It turns out the trap had been set long ago.

The live stream chat was filled with panic.

My goodness, this is terrifying to think about!

[This is outrageous! Murder for dowry and a wedding house!]

Shen Jingshu asked in a deep voice, "Auntie, you haven't registered your marriage yet, right? You agreed to meet tomorrow?"

Hua Kaifu nodded repeatedly, his heart pounding wildly.

"That's right! Master Shen! I absolutely will not go to get the marriage certificate tomorrow! I will immediately cut off all contact with him!"

"As long as you don't register your marriage with him, you can avoid this bloody disaster. After escaping this calamity, you will..."

"As long as you don't register your marriage with him, you can avoid this calamity. Once you escape this ordeal, your later life will be peaceful and smooth. Judging from your appearance, you are destined for longevity and will die peacefully in your old age."

"Auntie, you're only in your fifties, not old at all. You've also saved up some money, enough to work for another ten years or so, until you're in your sixties. If you're worried about being lonely, you could consider a nursing home; there are many people your age there, so you won't be all alone in the future."

The live chat instantly became lively.

Honestly, there's really no need to rush into marriage just to combat loneliness; the risks are too high and it's not worth it!

I'm planning to be childless. I'll work hard to earn money while I'm young, and when I get old, I can move into a nice nursing home where meals are provided and there are medical staff!

Some people have raised concerns.

But news reports occasionally surface about elder abuse in nursing homes.

Another comment followed immediately.

[Most problems arise from low-priced, poorly equipped accommodations. If your budget allows, consider several options. While you're still able to manage, try out different places for short periods to find the one that best suits your needs.]

Alternatively, you could contact your nephews and nieces and ask them to visit regularly when they get older, and also to keep an eye on the nursing home.

Another option is to find a compatible same-sex partner of similar age to live with. There are so many people who don't want to get married these days; remarriage is never the only way to secure a comfortable retirement.

Seeing the enthusiastic and helpful comments in the live chat, Hua Kai Fu Gui's eyes welled up with tears, and her heart was filled with gratitude.

"Thank you everyone, I saw it all, and I will think about it carefully. I'm only in my fifties, and I can still work and earn money. I've also saved some money, and I'll plan my retirement path carefully."

Thank you so much, Master Shen. If I hadn't managed to snag a lucky bag and connect with you today, I probably would already be on my deathbed, and wouldn't have lived much longer.

Shen Jingshu spoke softly:

"Everything is predestined, but fate can also be rewritten by your own choices. You shouldn't have suffered this misfortune; it was just that you were in a hurry to find companionship and almost fell into a trap set by others. From now on, just live for yourself."

"All three divinations for tonight are now complete. Orders for talismans will be available shortly. That concludes today's live stream."

Shen Jingshu put the talisman products on the yellow shopping cart, then casually closed the live stream, ending her live stream for the evening.

After the broadcast ended, the four of them chatted and joked around in the dormitory for a while before climbing into their beds, washing up, and preparing to rest.

Shen Jingshu had no idea that in the short moment she closed the live stream, the two hundred talismans that had just been put on sale were instantly sold out by the influx of fans in less than a minute.

Those who managed to snag the talismans were overjoyed, sharing screenshots of their orders in fan groups amidst cheers.

Those who didn't manage to get one weren't discouraged; they encouraged each other.

[Don't worry! This is just the first batch! Since the master has put it up for sale, there will definitely be more stock later!]

[Set your alarm for next time!]

[Let's share any news we have, so we won't miss a thing!]

Messages kept flooding the fan group chat.

After two more days of classes, the course finally came to an end.

The four girls in Shen Jingshu's dormitory had already made plans to go on a trip together. Everyone had packed their luggage in advance, and Song Ran and Lin Miaomiao had arranged the itinerary in an orderly manner. Xu Zhixia and Shen Jingshu just needed to go along with them.

The four of them took a taxi straight to Beijing International Airport.

University students start their holidays earlier than primary and secondary school students, and the peak travel season hasn't arrived yet. However, as the capital city, Beijing's airport is still bustling with people and travelers coming and going.

They walked to their respective boarding gates, with two hours to go before boarding. The group had rushed to the airport after school and were starving, so they went to the restaurant in the departure lounge to grab a bite.

The four found seats and ordered their own food. Song Ran and Lin Miaomiao enthusiastically introduced several restaurants they planned to visit that evening after arriving in Yunnan to Xu Zhixia and Shen Jingshu, letting them choose.

The girls chatted and laughed, creating a lively atmosphere, and there were also many other travelers dining in the restaurant.

After some discussion, they decided that their first meal after landing would be authentic Yunnan mushrooms. It's the perfect season for mushrooms, and they couldn't miss it while in Yunnan. This particular mushroom restaurant was one that Song Ran and Lin Miaomiao had researched beforehand and selected based on its excellent reputation and ratings.

After lunch, an announcement came on the loudspeaker, informing us that boarding for the flight to Yunnan had begun.

The four of them got up, lined up to board the plane, and found their seats. Shen Jingshu's seat was by the aisle. As soon as they put their carry-on luggage away and sat down, many other passengers were still boarding the plane.

Just then, a middle-aged man walked by in the passageway.

Shen Jingshu glanced at the other person's face and frowned slightly.

She was secretly puzzled, her first reaction being to wonder if she had misjudged the person, and she wanted to take another closer look at him.
