Chapter 519: The True Son of Heaven
Over here, it’s nighttime, and the corridor lights outline his features even more distinctly.Just standing there casually, he looked unbelievably good.
He nonchalantly withdrew his gaze, continuing to ask An Ran, his voice as steady as ever, "What exactly are you trying to say?"
Na, nani...
Does Ou Jue really not know that the day after tomorrow is Xiyan’s birthday?
This is bad, if Xiyan finds out, how heartbroken she would be.
An Ran was momentarily speechless, watching Xiyan’s hopeful eyes by her side, all the words got stuck in her throat.
Ou Jue’s character has always been aloof. Seeing An Ran not speaking, he ended the conversation first, "Not talking, hanging up."
With that, he stepped into the ward.
Beep beep beep...
The call was disconnected just like that.
An Ran didn’t mind Ou Jue’s cold attitude, because he was like that with everyone except Xiyan.
But now, she’s fretting over how to tell Xiyan?
Seeing An Ran’s troubled expression, Xiyan pursed her lips and tapped An Ran’s arm with her small hand, "What did he say?"
"He—" An Ran raised her voice, "He didn’t have time to say anything, seemed like something came up and he hung up."
"I see." A tiny sense of disappointment lingered in Xiyan’s heart.
An Ran chuckled foolishly, quickly changing the topic, "Oh, Xiyan, let me think about how you should spend your birthday? And Ruge, she’s flying back from America just to celebrate your birthday with you! The three of us can have an all-night outing, how about that?"
Xiyan’s gloomy heart sparked with a bit of excitement because of An Ran’s words, "Yeah, we’ll get to see Ruge!"
Xiyan and An Ran have been best friends since middle school.
As for Ruge, a great online gaming buddy...
The three of them chat in group messages every day about everything.
So is my birthday party going to turn into a real-life meeting?
Thinking about it like that, it’s kind of exciting.
After shopping all afternoon, after parting with An Ran, Xiyan kept clutching her phone.
Only the phone was quiet as a chicken the entire time.
Ou Jue, is he really that busy?
So busy he doesn’t even have time to call her?
If you don’t call me, I won’t call you either.
Xiyan angrily stuffed her phone into her bag.
Heading home!

An Ran was about to take the subway home.
Just as she approached the subway entrance, she saw a new little shop in the distance.
Reading the small print on the sign in her mind, An Ran said, "Tarot reading... accurate till you scream? During the opening, a reading is only 9.9 yuan!"
Wow, that’s quite cheap.
Thinking it over, An Ran walked up and pushed open the door to the little shop.
The shop was tiny, but the decor was very... um, mysterious?
In front of a white table, there was even a crystal ball placed conspicuously.
A woman, around 30 years old, wearing a headscarf, looked up, "Young lady, interested in a reading?"
"Ah... yes!" An Ran nodded foolishly.
The woman gestured to the empty seat opposite, "Come and sit down."
An Ran hesitated for a moment, but she still took a seat.
After all, it’s so cheap, just a reading for fun.
"What would you like to have a reading about?"
"Uh... everything."
The woman quietly shuffled the cards and started murmuring.
An Ran propped her chin on her hand, listening intently, and the mention of love made her heart tighten.
The woman stared at the cards, looked up at An Ran, and concluded, "Your destined one has already appeared."
