The Useless Heiress Is Actually A Bigshot-Chapter 90 - The Destined One
Chapter 90: Chapter 90 The Destined One
He had barely taken two steps when the old woman, for some reason, kicked a small protruding stone on the ground and fell face down.
Normally, such a fall wouldn’t have been a big deal. But as she fell, she instinctively braced herself with her hands, and just so happened to land on a sharp piece of stone protruding from the ground. When her arm pressed down, the sharp edge of the stone, like a keen blade, slashed open the skin on her arm, allowing bright red blood to flow continuously.
The old lady couldn’t help it and let out a pitiful scream.
From that scream alone, you could imagine just how painful it was. Those present couldn’t help but shudder.
“This is just the beginning!”
Just then, a faint voice rose, and everyone looked over to see Zhong Niangyao’s nonchalant expression. They couldn’t help but recall the Misfortune Talisman she mentioned earlier.
...
Unexpectedly, the old woman had just decided to leave when the prediction immediately came true.
The old woman couldn’t care less about the pain in her arm or the bleeding wound; she quickly got up and ran outside, not wanting to stay here another second, fearing another accident might occur.
After this incident, everyone had a new understanding of Zhong Niangyao’s capabilities, and their admiration and fear for Niangyao climbed another level.
From then on, no one dared to cause trouble.
Zhong Niangyao acted as if nothing had happened and returned to scrolling on her cell phone.
The talisman she had just given to the old woman was only a Misfortune Talisman. It wouldn’t be fatal, but the succession of moderate misfortunes could be enough to drive a person to the brink of mental collapse.
Although the old woman didn’t deserve to die, she wasn’t a good person in her daily life either; she never committed any serious crimes, but she was constantly involved in petty evils. This time, it was a lesson for her.
As for how long the effects of the Misfortune Talisman would last, it depended on the old woman herself. If she repented and started doing good deeds from then on, the talisman would lose its effect soon. Conversely, if she continued to do small bad deeds like before, the effect of the talisman would persist.
After the old woman left, many people came forward, wanting Niangyao to tell their fortunes.
By now, Niangyao’s reputation had spread, and almost everyone who came here was well aware of her abilities. So, whenever she set up her stall, it was always bustling with people wanting their fortunes read by her.
Now, Niangyao had changed her rules; she really only told fortunes for those destined to hear them. If you weren’t one of the destined, even if you sat down, she wouldn’t read your fortune.
As for those destined individuals, it was up to her to personally select them; anyone not chosen simply had no chance.
Soon, Zhong Niangyao pointed at a fashionably dressed young man in his twenties in the crowd and spoke up, “Today’s first will be you!”

Ou Xuanhan, suddenly singled out, froze for a moment, even reflexively pointing at himself as if doubting his own ears.
“Yes, you,” Zhong Niangyao nodded, then pointed to the stool opposite her, “Sit down first.”
Ou Xuanhan, utterly baffled, took the appointed seat. He felt as if he were in a fog, unable to understand the situation.
Actually, he didn’t believe in fortune-telling, considering it superstitious. His presence there was merely accidental.
Although he had just witnessed Niangyao’s display, he remained skeptical at heart.
When he saw the crowd eager to have their fortunes told by Niangyao, he found it rather exaggerated. He hadn’t expected to be the one she would choose, leaving him almost too stunned to react.
Without saying anything else, Zhong Niangyao extended the payment QR code to Ou Xuanhan, “Scan to pay, one thousand eight hundred eighty-eight.”
Ou Xuanhan didn’t know what came over him, but he actually took out his phone and scanned to pay. Then it dawned on him, “Hey, you haven’t said anything yet. Why do I have to pay first?”
He seriously suspected he had encountered a scammer. Though one thousand eight hundred eighty-eight wasn’t much for him, the idea of just giving it to a scammer made him very uncomfortable.
“I’m about to tell you!” Niangyao glanced at Ou Xuanhan sitting across from her and then said, “Although you are a man, you were born during the yin time. This makes you very susceptible to attracting unclean things. However, your family must know of this, which is why they sought a Jade Pendant blessed by a master for you to wear. It has indeed offered you a lot of protection.”
Hearing Niangyao’s words, Ou Xuanhan was shocked since she was exactly right.
The Jade Pendant was still worn around his neck, tightly against his chest, something Niangyao couldn’t possibly see. Unless she had x-ray vision that could see through clothes.
Moreover, the details she mentioned matched his situation perfectly.
Especially the Jade Pendant, which his parents constantly reminded him to wear at all times, insisting that it was never to be taken off.
Without heeding Ou Xuanhan’s shock, Niangyao continued, “Your situation isn’t too bad, but recently, you’ve got a crisis coming that might cost you your life.”
“What kind of crisis?” Ou Xuanhan asked instinctively.
Niangyao didn’t answer, only continuing to speak, “In the near future, absolutely avoid going to cemeteries or any similar places. Better to avoid even passing by them.”
“I didn’t plan on going to any cemeteries anyway!” Ou Xuanhan frowned.
Niangyao thought for a moment, then pulled out a piece of talisman paper from her pocket, folded it into a triangle, and handed it to Ou Xuanhan, “From today, you must wear this with you at all times, never to be separated from your body.”
Ou Xuanhan, half-doubting, accepted the talisman paper and didn’t say anything, but he tucked it into his pocket.
Niangyao nodded in satisfaction, then continued, “This talisman will be one hundred thousand.”
Hearing the price, Ou Xuanhan almost jumped to his feet, “One hundred thousand, why don’t you just rob me! I don’t want it.”
As he spoke, he attempted to pull out the talisman paper to return it to Niangyao.
