When everyone heard this, they looked in Qi Ying’s direction.

It was a very ordinary student called Cui Yu.

Everyone sighed in their hearts. Was this the taste of the new school belle?

Qi Ying patted Cui Yu. “Can I borrow a pen?”

Cui Yu was stunned. So she was just borrowing a pen. He had thought that such a beautiful girl had taken a fancy to him.

Seeing this, everyone looked away. It turned out that the new school belle only wanted to borrow something.

At this moment, the teacher walked into the classroom and started class. For a moment, everyone fell silent.

Qi Ying held a pen and wrote strange numbers and incantations on the paper.

This was an ancient method of divination.

When she first saw Cui Yu, she felt a strong premonition, but when she spoke to Cui Yu, this premonition weakened again.

It was a prompting mechanism for psychics.

In other words, the person who was related to her was not Cui Yu, but he had a certain connection with Cui Yu.

She drew a few circles on a string of numbers. They were 0820.

This person who was related to Cui Yu and had a strong connection with her was also strongly related to these four numbers.

Qi Ying wrote a note and handed it to Cui Yu.

Cui Yu frowned as he opened the note. There was a line of beautiful handwriting on it. [Do you have any relatives whose birthday is the 20th of August and who have been in trouble recently?]

Cui Yu’s jaw dropped.

He didn’t really remember his family’s birthday, but he still remembered the birthday of the most important big shot in the family.

August 20th. There was a calamity recently. Could it be the big shot at home?

But how did Qi Ying know? Did she know divination?

[Boss, how did you know?]

Qi Ying glanced at him and asked him to write his birthday on a piece of paper. After Cui Yu finished writing it, Qi Ying took the note and quickly wrote a few lines before handing it back to Cui Yu.

[You should have a good family since you were young, but your mother’s family is more powerful. Your studies in primary and secondary school were average, but your high school studies progressed by leaps and bounds. You would have two relationships in high school. Your mother had a serious illness two years ago, but you were always kept in the dark. However, this illness should have recovered.]

Cui Yu’s jaw dropped when he read these two paragraphs.

Everything she said before was his own experience. He did not know about the last part, but he remembered that his mother had indeed gone overseas for half a year two years ago.

Could it be that she had gone overseas to treat her illness?

Cui Yu looked at Qi Ying suspiciously and handed the note back.

[I’ll ask later.]

He pulled out his phone and quickly sent a message to his mother.

[Mom, did you have a serious illness before but have been hiding it from me?]

After a long time, Cui Yu’s mother finally replied with a simple ‘yes’.

Cui Yu couldn’t stay calm anymore. He quickly used the excuse of going to the toilet to walk out of the classroom and call his mother.

“Mom, why did you hide it from me?”

The person on the other end sighed. “I had breast cancer at that time. It was said that the risk of metastasis was very high. That was the critical period of your high school. I didn’t want to disturb your studies, so I said I was on a business trip.”

Cui Yu was so anxious that he was about to cry. “That’s cancer. How can you hide it from me? So I will never know about this?”

“It’s all right. I’ve recovered. The operation was a success, and I’m recovering well now. Look at me. I’m the same as I was before I got sick.”

At that time, Cui Yu’s mother really thought that she didn’t have long to live. She didn’t want her child to delay his studies, so she underwent the surgery without telling Cui Yu.

The surgery was unexpectedly successful. After several checkups, Cui Yu’s mother’s body did not have any cancer cells, so Cui Yu’s parents did not tell Cui Yu.

“Mom, if there are any family matters in the future that you and Dad can’t bear alone, you should let me know.”

“Okay, I won’t hide it from you anymore.” Hearing her son’s sensible words, Mrs. Cui felt very gratified.

“But son, how did you know about this?”

Cui Yu was stunned. He did not see any evidence. He only found out about this because of Qi Ying’s divination. Moreover, she seemed to know about his cousin’s calamity.

“Mom, you might not believe it, but this is the result of a classmate of mine’s divination. Besides, she also figured out about Cousin.”
