Chapter 196: Chapter 195: Discounted Services? (Part 2)

The astonishment of the young girl left Yun Ran somewhat dazed, not fully understanding the meaning of her words.

Yun Ran had no idea that the young girl had already imagined a whole lot of unfounded scenarios.

Since the quality of the turtle shell was good, the young girl had no reservations and started shaking it.

Soon, two copper coins fell out of it.

Yun Ran took back the turtle shell, looked at the divination on the table and then at the young girl, feeling a bit of pity in her heart.

A well-nurtured girl, yet still obsessed with love. Not only changing her appearance for love but also being exploited for it, and eventually, her so-called friends leading her to her death.

Yun Ran took out a Protective Vajra Talisman that she had drawn in her spare time and handed it to the young girl.

"Here’s some advice for you, love is precious but life is more precious. Don’t jeopardize your life for the sake of attraction. Take this peace charm as my gift to you, hoping it will keep you safe."

After speaking, Yun Ran put on her sunglasses again, the sun in Yinghua Country was really quite dazzling, and one must protect their eyes properly. Showing off was just an incidental.

The young girl, holding the peace charm in her hand, walked away a few steps before reacting.

She muttered to herself, "So she’s not a swindler after all, scared me to death. Well, this talisman looks... never mind, I’ll keep it as a souvenir."

The young girl put the peace charm in her pocket and quickly disappeared from sight.

Ginsengfruit felt that it wasn’t a curious System.

But just now, the Host didn’t tell the young girl about her deadly fate. Was it because she didn’t charge her, so the service was discounted?

It couldn’t help asking, "Host, why didn’t you tell her about her deadly fate, aren’t you afraid she won’t take the amulet seriously?"

Yun Ran continued to fan herself, embodying a leisurely calm.

"You don’t understand, not everyone has the mental fortitude to accept their fate.

This young girl, although born into a decent family and dearly loved by her parents, has never suffered any hardships.

But due to health reasons, she is much heavier than average, making her self-conscious and fragile inside.

More importantly, she’s too easy to influence, swaying with just a few words from others.

Even if I had told her about her deadly fate and advised her to avoid it, she would have been swayed by others’ words, so it’s better to say nothing.

I’ve modified the peace charm I gave her a bit; just by touching it, it has already been activated, hoping it might save her life."

What Yun Ran did not mention is that some people, typically ungrateful, have both good and bad traits.

Once such people are grasped by others, no amount of persuasion can bring them back, and they often end up dragging more innocent people down with them.

Ginsengfruit seemed to understand but still pretended to nod intelligently: "So that’s how it is, Host, you’re wise~"

What Yun Ran did not know was that upon returning to her group, although everyone seemed to be smiling, those smiles were clearly perfunctory.

Sadly, she was completely oblivious, unaware if she was just pretentious or genuinely naive.

The leading girl subtly glanced at the others, then warmly took the young girl’s hand.

Concernedly asking, "Miao Miao, where did you go just now?"

Thinking someone was genuinely interested, Miao Miao eagerly shared, "Just around the corner at a fortune-telling stall, I thought it was interesting, so..."

Before she could finish, someone interrupted her: "Alright, Miao Miao, those deceptive tricks are only liked by someone like you, what’s there to see? We’re here to sightsee today and we’re pressed for time."

Miao Miao immediately silenced herself, only wanting to share her experiences.

Although a bit sad, she quickly cheered herself up: It’s not that they dislike her; everyone is part of a team, and she should consider everyone else to not waste their sightseeing time.

The people following her began whispering.

"Really annoyed with this eyesore, she can’t possibly think that after getting cosmetic surgery, she can hang out with us. I don’t know what Sister Qianqian was thinking."

"I heard that this eyesore herself went to the club and said she’d cover all the costs, that’s why everyone reluctantly agreed to let her join."

"I’ve heard that too, and rumor has it that this ugly fatso loves throwing money around. Just a few sweet words and she’s all in. She’s so easy to deceive."

"Really? This time I’ve come here, I have a lot of stuff to buy, too bad, my parents are so stingy, they control the money tightly."

...

But quickly, this so-called rumor had spread throughout their entire team, with many seizing the opportunity to test the waters.

"Miao Miao, look at that wind chime, it’s really pretty. Unfortunately, the money my parents gave me is just enough for my study tour. If I could buy this wind chime..."

Miao Miao, being affectionately held and cooed at, felt very happy.

She immediately said, "If you like it, I’ll buy it for you. My parents gave me enough money."

After one was successful, others also started finding opportunities, waiting for their day’s itinerary to end, each clutching an item obtained from Miao Miao.

They exchanged knowing looks.

"So it’s true, if that’s the case, then this time, it’s not unbearable to tolerate her."

Everyone already saw Miao Miao as an easy mark, only she herself was blissfully unaware, still happy that she could help the team.

Miao Miao was carrying Yun Ran’s peace charm, so she probably knew about what was happening around her.

For Yun Ran, a person with a rich vocabulary, it was quite hard to comment.

Ginsengfruit finally understood what Host meant by saying the young girl was easily influenced; basically, she had no opinions of her own, like a reed swaying in the wind.

Soon, Yun Ran’s stall welcomed its second customer, who seemed unkind at first glance.

A burly man with tattoos covering his limbs looked disdainfully at ’Little Chicken’ Yun Ran.

"Free? Heh, who allowed you to set up a stall here!"

Turns out he was here to cause trouble, Yun Ran calmly pulled out a certificate she had obtained earlier from the street management.

"The white-haired old grandfather from the management office allowed it, here’s the proof of payment."

Burly man: ...
