Chapter 148 Changing Fate Against Heaven
Chapter 148 Changing Fate Against Heaven
"No matter what she said afterwards, I never agreed to gamble with her health again."
"Anyway, I have money, and I don't have a big obsession with continuing the family line. When I get old, I can sell the company and use the money to take my wife out to travel around the world. That would be a very pleasant thing."
"But as time went on, I found that my wife's ideas seemed to be different from mine."
"Every time she sees the children of her friends and relatives, she will happily hold them and play with them. I also realized that she really likes children. I can't selfishly impose my ideas on my wife."
"Since then, I have started to seek out numerous experts, some of whom are swindlers and some of whom are truly capable, but without exception, they were unable to solve my problem. Seeing that my wife is over 30 years old and can no longer have her own baby, she will become an older mother."
At this point, Zhong Lin made a special explanation: "Ms. Ji, please don't misunderstand me. I don't mean anything else. I just think that getting older will cause more harm to the mother's body."
"Later, I filed for a divorce and gave her most of my assets. She was in good health anyway, and if she could form a new family with another man who loved her in the future, perhaps her wish of having children and grandchildren around her could be fulfilled."
"I thought she would agree. After all, she had been with me for so long and had tried so many methods without success. She should have been disappointed a long time ago. But she slapped me in the face and told me not to ask for a divorce."
"Hey, what virtue do I have to have..."
Zhong Lin's eyes turned red as he finished speaking.
At the same time, Ji Chu couldn't help but sigh for their love. It is said that a man who loves his wife will be prosperous, while a man who harms his wife will never make any money. This sentence was tailor-made for Zhong Lin.
The fact that Zhong Lin was able to grow a small, unknown platform into what it is today is not only due to his strong abilities, but also to his character.
"Hey, my wife is 35 this year. Even if we can figure out why we can't have children in the future, the risk to my wife will only increase."
"So after I saw your live broadcast, I wanted to find you to figure out what was going on. I really couldn't wait any longer."
Ji Chu listened carefully, and she asked: "Mr. Zhong, except for the fact that you couldn't get your wife pregnant, your life should have been pretty smooth sailing, right? You even survived a disaster once?"
Zhong Lin frowned and said, "Yes, I have been very lucky since I was a child. The incident you mentioned of surviving a disaster happened when I was in the third grade of elementary school."
"My family was poor at the time. We had to do farm work and school ended early. Every day, I would go to the mountains to cut grass for pigs with a few other kids of similar age from the village."
"But on the way home that day, I saw a dark shadow waving at me on the side of the road. After I got home, I started to have a fever and talk nonsense."
"Those kids of similar age saw that I was not feeling well, so they didn't call me. As a result, when my mother asked the village witch to call my soul back, the hillside where we often cut grass for pigs suddenly collapsed."
Zhong Lin covered his eyes with a sad expression: "My friends were buried down there, but I escaped because of my poor health."
"In the following days, yellow and white paper money was scattered everywhere in the village. I wanted to go and see my friends off for the last time, but my mother wouldn't let me, saying that if I went, it would only make those families more sad."
"During that time, the adults were crying outside, and I was crying at home. At night, I would always dream about those people who had passed away, and they kept calling me to follow them. Several times, I followed them, but every time when I was about to step onto a bridge, a shadow pulled me back."
"I know very well that the shadow is the one I saw on my way home from school."
"Later, after the funeral in the village was over, everyone who saw me would praise me for my good luck, but this kind of praise is also a reminder."
"My parents saw that I was becoming more and more silent, so they finally moved me away. It was not until I was 20 that a reservoir was built near the village and I returned to the village as a dam supervisor."
Natural disasters and man-made disasters are results that no one wants to see, but this result is slightly different from the result seen at the beginning of the season.
"I've looked at Mr. Zhong's fate. Logically speaking, you should have died in the landslide that year."
"what?"
Zhong Lin raised his head suddenly, unable to believe his ears.
If he was supposed to die in the landslide, why did he survive? Or was the dark shadow he saw on his way home from school that year not just an illusion, but someone secretly saved his life?
"Does Mr. Zhong know his grandmother?"
Zhong Lin shook his head. "I don't remember. I heard from my mother that she died when I was one year old. The only impression I have of her is probably the time when my grandmother called my soul back when I was a child. The grandmother who called my soul back said that if my grandmother was still alive, she would definitely not let me be scared to death by a wild ghost on the road."
Ji Chu: "Yes, the reason why the mother-in-law said that is because your grandmother is the most powerful ghost-walking woman within a hundred miles of your village."
"You know what a ghost walker is. It's a medium that can ask a deceased relative to possess her from the underworld. Through their mouths, the living people can know what the deceased relative is missing, so that they can burn something for the deceased relative."
"Mr. Zhong's grandmother has been in the underworld for many years. She has a certain level of Taoism and knows a few magic tricks."
"After you were born, she calculated that you would die when you were 9 years old. In order to change your fate, she used all her skills. Because this action was against the will of heaven, she ended up dying."
Zhong Lin leaned back in his chair in disbelief. "Host, that means the shadow I saw at the intersection was my grandma? She didn't mean to scare me, but to make me sick so I could escape the disaster?"
"But I've never heard my parents talk about this!"
Ji Chu: "Your grandma loved you deeply, and she left with this secret."
"Of course, I think Mr. Zhong must be curious about why your grandma can tell your fortune. If she can help your friends, they might not die."
"I can only say that your grandmother's abilities are limited. She was able to predict that you would die, which was already her limit. Even she didn't know what disaster you would face, so she wandered around the village in the form of a spirit for those few years until that day came."
Zhong Lin smiled bitterly: "Isn't this too worthless? If changing one's fate is so difficult, I would rather die in that landslide than let her suffer so much."
Ji Chu smiled and comforted: "I can't say that all grandmothers in this world love their grandchildren, but the ones who love them are definitely willing to sacrifice their lives."
"It has already happened, and Mr. Zhong shouldn't give up on himself."
