Director Wang Cheng was momentarily taken aback by her voice, unsure whether she was speaking the truth or merely trying to gain attention in front of the camera. After pondering for a moment, he recalled that the reason he had invited her as one of the guests was due to her remarkable affinity with animals. The fact that she had just ridden a leopard to the meeting point was proof enough.
What Wang Cheng didn’t know was whether she truly possessed the ability to summon beasts or if she could genuinely read fortunes to find people. As a director, he hesitated briefly before revealing the name and birth date of Guest Number Three to her.
Guest Number Three was named Lin Yunqing, and his birthday was...
This was a new highlight for the show. Regardless of whether Ruan Fuxi could actually read fortunes, it would undoubtedly attract some attention.
At that moment, netizens were buzzing with excitement over Ruan Fuxi's words. Fans of Shi Lili seemed to have finally found a weakness and began to question her credibility.
“What? She can read fortunes and find people? What a joke! Just because she can ride a leopard doesn’t make her special.”
“I’m literally dying of laughter. Even if she’s trying to gain attention, she shouldn’t make things up. Why doesn’t she just say she’s a cultivator about to ascend?”
“At such a critical moment, how can this female guest waste time just to show off? It’s pouring rain; not a second can be wasted!”
However, some netizens chose to believe Ruan Fuxi.
“Some fans are as annoying as flies, buzzing around incessantly.”
“I believe in this female guest. She can summon beasts; maybe she really can find someone through fortune-telling.”
“There are always people better than you; just because you can’t do it doesn’t mean others can’t.”
Ruan Fuxi took Guest Number Three's name and pulled three copper coins from her pocket, placing them in her palm for a moment before laying them out one by one.
The others were unsure of what she was doing but felt an inexplicable sense of awe, their expressions turning solemn as they refrained from interrupting her.
Dry, Kun, Zhen, Xun.
Ruan Fuxi looked at the arranged coins and said to the director: “Guest Number Three is in the Kan position, which is in the north. The Kan position symbolizes water, indicating that he is currently in water and is not in immediate danger. If you search one thousand meters north, you should be able to find him.”
Upon hearing this, the director was skeptical but still arranged for someone to search in the direction she indicated. Just then, he heard Ruan Fuxi say:
I never miss a chance to predict fortunes. This time, since we're on the island, I won't charge any money; instead, I'll settle for thirty points.
Work for the production team for free? That's impossible.
Director Wang Cheng's lips twitched at her words, thinking to himself that this guest was quite audacious. She hadn't even found anyone yet, and she was already negotiating terms with him.
Wang Cheng found it somewhat amusing and decided to be generous for once. "Alright, if you really manage to find someone in the place you mentioned, I'll give you points. Thirty is too many; I can only give you ten."
Ruan Fuxi calmly nodded, as if those ten points were already in her pocket.
Beside her, Han Feier looked on with curiosity and excitement as she approached Ruan Fuxi. "Miss, can you really predict the location of Guest Number Three? What was that thing you did with the coin earlier?"
Ruan Fuxi briefly explained, "What I did earlier was a hexagram; the coin is used for divination to predict fortunes and determine directions."
Han Feier didn't fully understand but it didn't stop her from thinking Ruan Fuxi was impressive. After hearing her explanation, Han Feier's eyes sparkled even more.
"Can you do a reading for me? I want to know about my career."
Before Ruan Fuxi could respond, Shi Lili interjected. She frowned, hesitating to speak.
"Can you really find someone this way? We shouldn't be too superstitious. What if we miss the best time to find someone because of incorrect information? If something happens to the guest and they get hurt, how will that reflect on us? I'm not blaming you; I just think we should rely on scientific methods. I know you're well-intentioned."
