[1v1 + livestreaming + ghost hunting + folk metaphysics]
This story is mostly about the supernatural and hunting ghosts, with little else. If you're not afraid of ghosts, come on in.
Lu Jie was found as a child and brought to a Taoist temple to train as a priestess. She thought she would breathe new life into the temple, but who knew she'd turn out to be a money pit?
That's not an insult. She literally cost them money.
After her master kicked her down the mountain, she discovered that Huo Wushang, CEO of the Huo Group, was a walking “merit-making money machine.”
[Just stick close to him, and you can change your fate!]
From then on, the feared Mr. Huo had a little fortune-teller trailing behind him.
“Mr. Huo, your brother's in for a bloody misfortune today. It'll cost extra... I mean, I'll need more time!”
While other people went on variety shows to fight for the center spot, she went on them to tell fortunes for top-tier stars.
A certain top-tier star: “Can you tell me how my career will go?”
Lu Jie: “You'll become a household name.”
Later, a second-rate singer was jailed for drug use and soliciting prostitutes. To crack down on such behavior, the country publicized the case widely as a warning to others.
Netizens: “...”
It was reported on CCTV, so the singer really did become a household name.
Her haters mocked her for riding on Mr. Huo's coattails, until one night
An evil spirit appeared. In the ensuing chaos, Lu Xingjie stepped in front of Huo Wushang to protect him. “Don't be scared. I've got you!”
The next second, a deathly aura burst from Mr. Huo, scattering every ghost.
He collapsed weakly into her arms. “Xingjie, I'm dizzy. A kiss is the only cure.”
Lu Xingjie: “???” Wasn't I supposed to be making money? How did I end up being the one getting wooed?
Later, her predictions proved so accurate that top-tier stars from the entertainment industry lined up to have their fortunes told. Eventually, the authorities took notice. The next time netizens saw her, she had somehow landed a government job.
Now that's an unconventional way to get hired by the government!
