Luo Yingbai loved to speak in riddles, always leaving half unsaid. Though he didn’t explicitly say the second half of the saying – “the front waves die on the beach” – his expression and tone made everything clear. Yin Ming, who had failed to “enlighten” the younger generation, instead found himself being lectured, and exclaimed angrily, “You little…”
Luo Yingbai slightly raised his voice, interrupting Yin Ming: “For instance, just as you said, your reason for leaving school was to seek greater development? I doubt that. Mr. Yin, with such deep expertise in metaphysics, don’t you look in the mirror? Your official fortune palace is broken by an oblique line, indicating unexpected career disruptions forcing a job change.”
The blue veins on your fortune palace and drooping eye corners suggest unresolved emotional debts…”
He had practically revealed everything, watching Yin Ming’s expression change, then suddenly shifted tone and laughed, “But these matters have nothing to do with me. I don’t intend to investigate further. Mr. Yin, be careful with your words and don’t treat people like fools.”
Yin Ming, full of anger, was caught off guard by Luo Yingbai’s words, which touched on memories he had long avoided. It was like being doused with cold water, all his anger dissipating. He reflexively denied, “Nonsense!”
He picked up his tea cup to calm himself, but his fingers trembled, spilling tea on his pants.
Luo Yingbai shook his head, speaking earnestly, “At your age, your mentality is still not stable. How can you properly exorcise ghosts like this? Your fundamentals are lacking.”
After speaking, he stood up, placing some change on the table. Although Yin Ming had invited him for tea, he didn’t want to be contaminated by such a person’s negative energy and preferred to settle the score cleanly.
Just as Luo Yingbai walked out of the tea house, someone suddenly shouted from behind, “Master Luo! Master Luo, please wait!”
According to Luo Zhao’s estimation, due to the special circumstances, she would certainly not receive the death penalty, with an initial estimate of five to ten years in prison – which was already a lenient sentence for intentional murder, and the authorities would likely provide some special consideration.
