Chapter 33: Experiencing Different Lives 2

Half an hour later, a woman wearing a mask and sunglasses arrived.

Accompanying this woman was a ghost, specifically a young and beautiful female ghost.

"Hello," the woman greeted politely.

Fu Qiu nodded. "Hello, please have a seat."

After the woman sat down, Fu Qiu asked bluntly, "Why is there a female ghost following you?"

"A female ghost?!" The woman looked puzzled.

"Yes, a female ghost," Fu Qiu confirmed.

"Master, you must be joking. How could a female ghost be following me? I haven't done anything wrong," the woman said, sounding skeptical.

Seeing that the woman did not believe her, Fu Qiu stopped pressing the point and continued, "Have you been sleeping poorly lately? Do your shoulders feel particularly heavy?"

"I've always had a bit of insomnia, but my shoulders don't feel heavy," the woman replied, acting evasive.

"Is that so?"

"Yes."

Realizing the woman was not telling the truth, Fu Qiu moved on from the topic and asked, "What have you come to consult about today?"

"I've been married for ten years, but we have no children. Although we've been trying IVF, I haven't been able to conceive. I want to know when I will be able to have a child."

"Your birth chart indicates you are destined to have children."

"Really?"

"Yes."

"Then why have I been unable to conceive?"

"Pregnancy is not just about you; it also depends on your husband's birth chart." Fu Qiu took out paper and a pen and asked for her husband's name and birth details.

The woman provided the information.

"Before you got married, did you have your birth charts matched?"

The woman shook her head. "No, we didn't."

At the time, she hadn't believed in such things, but over the years, in order to conceive, she had tried everything possible.

"Your husband's birth chart shows no children. Simply put, even if you keep seeking medical treatment, it will be very difficult to have a child. Even if you do conceive, you will likely suffer a miscarriage."

"You have had a miscarriage, haven't you?"

"Yes," the woman nodded slightly. "I had one before, and ever since then, I haven't been able to get pregnant again."

"Your husband's chart indicates no children; even if a child were conceived, the child would have disabilities. Therefore, you are not meant to have children."

"Then can our marriage still be maintained?"

"Must you have a child to stay together?"

"I feel like my husband and I have grown cold toward each other, so I want a child to sustain the marriage."

Fu Qiu asked, "Let me ask you, have the doctors ever told you that you are capable of having children?"

"They said it was very difficult, and we have undergone fertility treatments."

"Your husband's chart has no children. No matter what you try, it won't happen," Fu Qiu said. "Even if you go elsewhere, they will tell you the same thing."

"Then will our marriage improve?"

"That depends on what you do. You got together because you liked each other, didn't you?"

"But from what I can see, your relationship is distant. Even if you are together, there is no passion between you. Your husband is no longer the way he was in the beginning."

"Yes, that's a big reason why I want a child."

"I thought that if we had a child, it might improve our relationship."

"Your husband's heart has long since wandered away, though he has no intention of divorcing you."

"Oh, is that so?" The woman looked surprised.

"Yes," Fu Qiu said. "There is something I want to ask you."

"Please, go ahead."

"When you walked in just now, there was a woman following you. Let me describe her appearance to you."

"She has a mole on the left side of her nose, she is very pretty, about 170 centimeters tall, with brown wavy hair, and a slim build."

"Do you recognize who this is?"

The woman’s pupils dilated.

[Jin Yuqiu! It’s Jin Yuqiu!]

Nan Chu thought: *It seems she knows her.*

"This person committed suicide," Fu Qiu said, looking at the woman. "Who is she?"

The woman remained silent.

After waiting for a long time without a response, Fu Qiu pressed her, "I asked you a question. If you know, say you know; if you don't, say you don't. Who is the person following you?"

"That... this..."

"Who exactly is it?!" Fu Qiu asked coldly.

"A friend," the woman said sheepishly. "She is a friend, but an old one from the past."

"Then why is she following you?"

The woman stayed silent, refusing to answer.

Fu Qiu asked, "Didn't I ask you earlier if you were sleeping well? Your head doesn't hurt, and your shoulders don't feel heavy?"

"I've always had a bit of a migraine."

"Nonsense," Fu Qiu snapped.

"The person who passed away has many regrets," Fu Qiu said, looking at the woman. "You said she is an old friend? How long have you known her?"

"Yes, we were friends for sixteen years. We were friends since elementary school."

"She must be your closest friend, right?"

"Yes, she was my closest friend, but we don't talk anymore."

"Why did you stop talking?"

The woman was silent for a moment before saying, "Because of my husband. He used to date her."

"So, you stole your husband from her?"

"We got together because we were in love; I didn't steal him."

Fu Qiu retorted, "You absolutely stole him! Stop talking nonsense!" To think she had the nerve to smile—she was truly sick.

"That's all in the past," the woman said. "Besides, what I did isn't illegal."

"What did you say?" Fu Qiu asked.

"It’s not illegal, and I didn't do anything wrong," the woman argued. "What is wrong with two people in love being together?"

*What a load of crap about being in love,* Fu Qiu cursed inwardly.

Fu Qiu continued to ask, "Did he start dating you while he was still seeing your friend?"

"Yes."

"Did you seduce him, or did he seduce you?"

"We both just ended up together naturally."

"In my opinion, you seduced him," Fu Qiu said, tearing through the woman's lies.

The woman whispered, "Because he is a very good person."

"He's a 'good person,' so you decided to seduce and steal him? Did you never think that he was your best friend's boyfriend? You seduced him, so what was your friend supposed to do?"

"She was pretty and rich; she could have just found someone else. She wasn't exactly lacking for boyfriends," the woman replied brazenly.

"You are the type of shameless person who seduces her best friend's boyfriend and then acts righteous about it," Fu Qiu said, ignoring the filming and scolding her directly.

The woman gave an awkward smile.

"Even though you don't necessarily deserve my scolding, your friend committed suicide because she couldn't let go of this matter," Fu Qiu said coldly. "That friend of yours keeps following you, and you won't gain anything from it!"

"From now on, you must keep a sense of remorse for your friend and help her move on to a better place."

"Only then will it be good for both you and her!"

"So, is it because of her that I cannot conceive?"

Fu Qiu was so angry she almost laughed. "It's not because of your friend; it's because your husband's birth chart has no children. It’s your husband's issue, and it has nothing to do with your friend."

"Then if I hold feelings of remorse, will I be able to have a child?"

"No. I already told you, your husband's chart has no children."

"Then what can I do to have a child?"

Fu Qiu felt the woman was truly dim-witted. She had explained it so many times—it was because her husband's chart had no children! Why couldn't she understand?
