Chapter 15: Suspicious

After getting the water, Eve reached out her hand into the water in the cup and then flicked it in Xavier's direction.

Eve was silent for a while before saying, "A woman, with a God - given voice, being the center of attention. An unhappy marriage."

"There's an elder figure standing behind you, always silently guarding you... It's about to disappear soon."

Xavier nodded to the staff beside her, and Eve's blindfold was taken off.

When Eve saw clearly the person in front of her, no, when she saw clearly the "person" standing beside Xavier, a flash of surprise passed through her eyes.

"Did you experience many life - and - death situations when you were a child, but always managed to turn the tables?"

A look of surprise flashed across Xavier's face, and she nodded.

"Yes. In a car accident I had before, my limbs were all dislocated, and there was massive internal organ bleeding."

"But when the sense of approaching death came over me, I clearly felt my soul leaving my body. Suddenly, the next second, all the vital signs returned to normal. I've never told anyone about this."

Eve stared fixedly at what was standing behind Xavier. It could be said to be a person, but it was very strange. It was hard to tell its gender, it had no facial features, and it seemed to be an extension of Xavier. Its limbs were twisted.

But it would imitate every move Xavier made. It was obvious that all the injuries Xavier had suffered since childhood had been blocked by this thing.

Eve wasn't sure what this thing was for the time being, but she knew that every time this thing blocked a disaster for Xavier, it would merge with her a step further until the moment it swallowed Xavier.

As for the consequences of being swallowed, Eve had no idea either.

"Could you get me a mirror you usually use?" Eve said while still staring at Xavier's back. Her gaze made Xavier feel a chill down her spine. From the beginning, Xavier didn't like Eve. Eve's look always made her feel as if Eve was looking through her at someone else, which made her very uncomfortable.

Xavier thought the person in front of her was a bit strange and seemed a bit neurotic. She didn't dare to give her things she had used easily. Xavier was already on high alert. She thought everyone might be the one cursing her, or maybe she was really scared.

Seeing Xavier's refusal, Eve pouted, picked up her cat, and looked at Xavier meaningfully. "If you don't trust the spiritual mediums in the program, why did you come to this show? Or rather, what you want isn't to seek answers here at all. You have other motives."

"I can only advise you one last time. Don't be too greedy for things that don't originally belong to you."

At this time, Xavier calmed down and just smiled. "Sorry, Ms. Eve. There's nothing I want that I can't get for the time being. I just want to solve problems and seek answers."

Eve, who was taken aback, shrugged indifferently, picked up the Persian cat squatting at her feet. "I hope you'll get what you want."

Then she waved and left.

The online discussions were also scrolling non - stop. The evaluations of the previous contestants' performances were mixed.

"Two powerful spiritual mediums in a row think there's something wrong with Xavier. Maybe they're right. Xavier looks quite guilty."

"What are you talking about, the one above? Xavier doesn't trust them. Don't you understand? They're just here for the ranking."

"That old lady even said Xavier's marriage was unhappy. How could that be? Their love is obvious to all. I knew she had no real ability as soon as she opened her mouth."

"Hahaha, look at Eve getting anxious. Our Xavier has worked hard for so many years and has achieved a lot in every field. She can surely get whatever she wants."

Then the next fortune - teller, Glendon, took the stage with a deck of cards. Glendon was wearing a stuffy black suit. His every move was very formal, just like an old gentleman from the Republic of China era.

He shuffled the stack of Tarot cards in his hand and then asked Xavier to draw three cards.

Glendon rubbed these three cards repeatedly and murmured to himself. At this time, the netizens noticed something strange.

When the camera zoomed in on this deck of Tarot cards, it was found that it was different from the ordinary Tarot cards on the market. Although the patterns on modern Tarot cards varied, the patterns inside the cards were the same.

Modern fortune - telling cards weren't that mysterious anymore. There were all kinds of online tutorials for ordinary people to get started. They shared the same fortune - telling logic.

But Glendon's deck of cards was self - made. The patterns on the cards were edged with gold, which allowed him to tell what was on the card just by touch. The cards were flying between his fingers. The light reflected the golden glow, looking really like he was performing magic. He used his own unique fortune - telling theory to support his logic.

Among the three cards, two cards similar to the Queen card were drawn, one in the upright position and one in the reversed position, and one might be the Wands card. But how Glendon interpreted these three cards was unknown to us.

Sure enough, he also guessed Xavier's gender and occupation, and even pointed out exactly why Xavier came to this show.

After taking off his blindfold, Glendon saw the same thing as Eve. He frowned tightly.

He said straightforwardly, "The child you want will never come. There's something else attached to you. A child won't come to you unless you can get rid of that attachment."

"Are you sure you haven't made a contract with something else?" Glendon stared directly into Xavier's eyes.

Xavier looked blank. "What do you mean? Is there really someone cursing me?"

"There's no curse. It's all about you. No one else can help you. You can only negotiate with it to get it off you."

Xavier was confused and wanted Glendon to explain more clearly, but Glendon just shook his head and said he was helpless. Then he turned around and left the stage.

The online bullet - screen also started to doubt Xavier.

"Do you think that since several spiritual mediums in a row have pointed out the same problem, is it possible that Xavier is really haunted by something?"

"They also said it was a contract Xavier made herself?"

"Don't believe or spread rumors. Let's wait and see. Don't be in a hurry."

Finally, it was Ning Yitao's turn. In the blind - folded guessing game, thanks to her excellent performance in the previous episode, which had generated a wave of popularity for the show, the program crew had specially designed clothes and makeup for her this time.

These days with Duan Qinghuai weren't in vain. By practicing beside him every day, a lot of the sluggish energy in her body had been expelled, and her meridians had become much smoother. Now, compared with the last time, Ning Yitao was like a different person.

When the camera focused on her, her white skin was as fair as jade. Her big, round eyes were as clear as water. Her nose was small and delicate. Her once yellow hair had become black and neatly hung behind her, smooth as a waterfall. Paired with the school - uniform - style clothes the program crew had specially prepared to highlight her young age,

A pure - black American jumpsuit school uniform showed off her good figure to the fullest. The golden school badge on the round bow tie of the white shirt inside shone brightly, contrasting with the golden lace on the edge of the dark - colored short skirt. It was small and beautiful. Although she looked like a national - sister type, her temperament was completely different.

Ning Yitao didn't care about the change in her appearance. She only liked practicing.

This round was a piece of cake for Ning Yitao. She also accurately described Xavier's situation.

But after taking off her blindfold, Ning Yitao's expression was surprisingly the same as the previous contestants who had taken off their blindfolds. Their expressions instantly became serious.

"Are you really here to solve the problem about having a child? I don't think so." Ning Yitao said coldly.
