Big Shot Little Jiaojiao Breaks Her Persona Again

Chapter 523: Divination Hall

“Why aren’t you back yet?” Quan Jue’s calm voice sounded on the other end of the phone.

“I’m already preparing to go back,” Chi Jiao said in a gentle tone, with Beitang Lie looking on in utter shock.

The current Chi Jiao was a completely different person from the girl who had fought the giant python.

“Do you need me to pick you up?” Quan Jue asked.

“No need. I’ll be home soon,” Chi Jiao continued gently.

“I’ll wait for you at home, then. No need to rush, take care on the road.”

After hanging up, Chi Jiao kept her phone and her little face returned to its usual indifference.

Beitang Lie saw that her expression could change even faster than he could flip the pages of a book. He couldn’t help asking, “Was it your boyfriend?”

He inexplicably thought of the young man standing at the second-floor window of her house previously.

Chi Jiao nodded.

“You’re already in love at such a young age!” Beitang Lie pointed at her.

Chi Jiao cast him a cold glance.

Strictly speaking, she had already lived two lifetimes. It was considered extremely late for her to only be in love now.

However, she couldn’t be bothered to talk to Beitang Lie anymore. She stuffed the plastic bag and a notebook she had found earlier into his hands. “Think of a way to repair the phone and the flash drive. Register this notebook as evidence too, and then send it back to me.”

According to the rules and regulations of 117, evidence couldn’t be taken away without permission. It had to be registered and go through the proper processes.

With that, Chi Jiao left.

Hugging the plastic bag, Beitang Lie looked at the dark apartment behind him. He shivered.

He really didn’t dare to stay here for a moment longer. He hurried forward and followed Chi Jiao.

In the darkness, a black crow stopped on a tree branch. Its blood-red eyes watched as they left.

Its gaze was cold and treacherous.

It was Saturday in the blink of an eye.

Chi Jiao’s shop was called the Divination Hall. Yan Qingqing had come up with the name, and a shiny signboard was even made.

The Divination Hall was located in the busiest shopping mall in White City. Every inch of land here was worth its weight in gold. The shiny signboard and retro decor stood out against the surrounding high-end brands.

Today, the shop was officially open for business. Yan Qingqing even invited a lion dance troupe and opera performers. The shop was bustling with activity, attracting many people to stop and watch.

“Divination Hall? What’s that?” someone asked curiously as he stared at the shop.

“It looks like a Feng Shui business. Are fortune-tellers so extravagant now? They actually chose to open a shop in this area.”

“In this day and age, nine out of ten fortune-tellers are fake. They’re not trustworthy at all.”

“…”

Inside the shop, the 200-square-meter hall was luxuriously furnished. The tables, chairs, and cabinets were all made of superior mahogany.

This was the first time Chi Jiao was visiting her shop.

Yan Qingqing was the one who prepared the place. Chi Jiao felt that it was a small matter and was assured enough to leave it to her to manage.

She didn’t expect Yan Qingqing to be so extravagant.

Chi Jiao looked at the shop decor and felt that it must have cost at least five million yuan.

For example, the lucky toad statue at the entrance was an antique.

That toad alone was worth one million yuan.

In addition, the shop was divided into two floors. The floor above was a tea room specially used for tea drinking.
