Baby Serendipity: The Whole World Fell In Love With Me
Chapter 101 - 100: Miscalculation!

Chapter 101: Chapter 100: Miscalculation!

"What’s wrong, my dear nephew?" concern shone through Mianmian’s small expression.

Su Chenfei swallowed a mouthful of saliva, his gaze resting on Mianmian’s cute profile as he pecked her on the cheek, "Nothing, nothing, haha, it’s just that it’s getting dark and suddenly feels a bit cold."

Yes, he was cold, definitely not afraid of snakes.

Su Chenfei thought, his gaze shifting over Chu Qi, Liu Hui, Xu Weiwei, and Director Hu in turn.

He had wanted to see if anyone shared his fear of anything related to snakes, but it turned out that those who had children held their children, and those without sat upright and composed, their faces calm without a hint of fear.

Su Chenfei could not help but feel helpless and tried his best to compose himself.

He couldn’t lose face, especially since they were live-streaming!

Mianmian felt Su Chenfei’s body was a bit cool, and pursed her little mouth tightly.

The food they had just eaten contained a small amount of hallucinogenic medicine. The medicine wouldn’t harm anyone but would cause people to see hallucinations.

Mianmian had tasted it immediately, but since they had agreed to pretend, she acted as if she didn’t know and ate some.

She hadn’t expected that as they ate, everyone consumed the same thing, and Little Bun was getting anxious inside but dared not show it. She could only tell herself that she was playing a performance game, pretending not to know there was medicine in the food.

She wondered if she had fooled the person who drugged them.

Mianmian stared at the dancing men on stage; for a moment, it seemed as if she really saw writhing snakes. The hissing sounds full of rhythmic sense were like someone whispering, but listening carefully, she couldn’t make out the words.

If she was feeling this way, the others must have seen even stranger things!

What was the purpose of the culprit drugging them? Was it just to make them see illusions that matched the sounds of the instruments and the hissing?

Mianmian was confused and images of village faces with abruptly ending lifelines from earlier in the day reappeared in front of her.

They were supposed to die, to be taken away by the Ghost Envoy. Maybe it was because the landslide had deviated from its course, or maybe someone had done something to them, resulting in their souls still lingering in their bodies, continuing to live.

So strange!

Why didn’t the Ghost Envoy come to take their souls? And wasn’t King Yama’s Grandpa supposed to send someone to take care of it?

During her daytime stroll in the village, besides the Town Soul Stone in the Pomegranate Garden, she didn’t notice anything else.

Mianmian thought hard, her little face stern, facing the stage, looking dazed.

Su Chenfei also became quiet at this time, his expression numb. The dance that originally made him feel sick now seemed somewhat interesting, to the point where he even found it somewhat beautiful.

Suddenly, Su Chenfei cracked a smile.

The live broadcast continued, and viewers saw the expressions on the faces of the guests, full of question marks.

"That dance doesn’t seem all that great, does it? What are the guests laughing at?"

"My Youyou looks so silly laughing, haha, why is the cool guy Chu Ye also laughing?"

"Little Auntie didn’t laugh but looks a bit silly too, haha."

The comments were filled with playful teasing.

As the performance on stage came to an end, Yi Min clapped enthusiastically, "Hahaha, it’s been a long time since I’ve seen this dance, the folks still dance it so well."

His applause brought those trapped in the hallucinatory state back to reality.

Director Hu touched his forehead and shook his head in agreement with Yi Min, "It is quite charming indeed, just a bit odd. What’s that wine you served? Did I get drunk on just one sip?"

Yi Min chuckled, "The wine is just ordinary barley wine, our village’s secret recipe. Maybe you’re not used to it, and that’s why you feel dizzy."

As the two conversed, Liu Hui hugged Gu Youyou tightly, feeling puzzled.

She seemed to keep hearing someone whispering in her ear about something to do with night, something about the water’s edge. Now that the dance was over, it seemed like she couldn’t hear it anymore.

Xu Weiwei and Liu Hui reacted similarly, holding their son tight, full of doubts.

Why did it seem like someone was speaking near their ears?

"Haha, in any case, that’s our welcome party," said Yi Min, looking at Mianmian. "Little Auntie, you mentioned you would help with fortune-telling, remember?"

Mianmian nodded, "I remember, but Mianmian charges a fee for fortune-telling."

Yi Min took out 888 yuan and handed it to Mianmian, "There’s a child in our village who’s always been weak and sick. I’m one of his elders, and I want to know when his health will improve."

Mianmian handed the money to Su Chenfei, who was still shaking his head, "Sure, Mianmian will help with the fortune-telling."

Yi Min smiled, gesturing for a little boy to come over.

"His name is Liao An, ten years old. Just say whatever you can see," said Yi Min.

Liao An did indeed look as Yi Min described, very thin and pale, with an unnaturally white complexion that seemed rather eerie under the light. Though his face was delicate and more resembling a girl’s rather than a boy’s.

His eyes, placid as ancient wells, stared at Mianmian, his expression lifeless and dull.

Mianmian froze when she saw Liao An.

Half human, half demon—Liao An’s aura was mottled, hence his weak constitution.

"Don’t be sad," Mianmian lifted her hand, touching Liao An’s face, "Don’t be sad, all right?"

Liao An frowned, "What’s there to be sad about?"

Mianmian smiled, "Your mom is fine, your dad is doing well now, and your future will be good too."

Having said that, Mianmian held Liao An’s hand.

For Mianmian, Liao An’s hand felt a bit cool.

Mianmian smiled at Liao An, "Really, you’ll be okay, you won’t get sick and die, and your mom will be very reassured about you, it’s really good."

Liao An frowned, growing impatient, "What nonsense are you spouting? My mom died long ago, how could she be fine?!"

Mianmian immediately retorted, "No, that’s not true. Your mom is fine, and so will your health be. I’ve seen it all."

Hearing Mianmian constantly talk about his mother, two sharp teeth emerged at the edge of Liao An’s lips, then quickly disappeared.

He then looked up at Yi Min, dropped his eyes, shook off Mianmian’s hand, and walked away with big strides.

With the divination subject gone, Yi Min didn’t mind: "What did Little Auntie mean? His mother indeed died early, how can she be fine? And will Liao An’s health really improve?"

Mianmian grinned cutely, "It will, Mianmian saw it, his body will become very healthy. His mom isn’t dead, are you guys lying to Mianmian?"

"Is that so?" Yi Min laughed, "Thank you, Little Auntie, you must be tired, go back and rest."

"What’s going on, did Little Auntie make a mistake this time? Both the child and the adults say his mother is dead."

"Not sure, but if Little Auntie says she’s not dead and is fine, then she must be alive, right?"

"I always feel something’s off, the kid’s skin looked too white under the light just now. It was a bit scary."

"Hope Little Auntie’s mystic persona doesn’t collapse now. Could the current plot all be scripted?"

"Impossible, how do you explain the mudslide incident? Does a natural disaster also follow a script?"

The live chat exploded with arguments due to Mianmian’s divination for Liao An, and offscreen, Director Hu announced the end of the day’s live-stream before turning off the camera.

Although the live-stream ended, the online discussions continued, with netizens engaging in heated debates over Mianmian’s divination outcome, and someone even started a poll.

Do you think Little Auntie’s divination this time was accurate?

A. Accurate, just as before.

B. Not accurate, everything prior was scripted.

Yi Min laid in bed, scrolling through his mobile phone, and upon seeing the poll, he unhesitatingly chose B.

Then he put down his phone, crossed his legs in Erlang’s pose. The mayor of Yide Village, now with glasses removed, had a self-satisfied smile curving his mouth.

He had been worried when he suddenly got word from the Party Secretary that the "Adorable Baby" crew was coming to the village to shoot a variety show and that his abnormality, along with the village’s, might be noticed by Su Mianmian, who had the identity of a mystic Big Boss.

But today, after three tests, Su Mianmian had fallen for all of them.

Now that he thought about it, the two incidents where Su Mianmian’s pill cured a poisoned pig and an unconscious elder—perhaps it was just the pill that was powerful, not her?

And what about catching crooks or predicting mudslides? They might have just been flukes.

If this kid really had powers, how could she have eaten the problematic vegetables, and consumed them with such relish? And why would she tell Liao An that his mother was still alive?

Liao An’s mother, after all, had died before his very eyes. He had supervised her burial, and her body was probably long assimilated into the earth, leaving no trace to be found.

As long as they could wrap up the show smoothly and send them on their way, there would be no worries. Once the shooting was over, the broadcast would help sell the pomegranates. Given the pomegranates’ quality, they could make a fortune and have more funds for the Village God’s offerings.

Yide Village’s Yi Family bloodline would continue uninterrupted, with all villagers living happily under the Village God’s protection!

The more Yi Min thought about it, the happier he became. He rolled over, got up, and twisted a wooden figurine on the cabinet.

A click sounded as a reveal opened in the wooden floor.

Yi Min descended the stairs, his smile still on his face; suddenly, however, a hissing noise reached his ears.

That sound, approaching from afar, signified something drawing near him.

If an ordinary person were to hear this sound, they’d probably imagine monsters and be scared witless, fleeing in terror.

But excitement spread across Yi Min’s face as he strode towards the source of the hissing sound. Not even waiting for the creature to show itself, he dropped to his knees with a thump.

"You, you’ve awakened!"
