Her family falls apart and dies. Her relatives take possession of her properties. She is reported for cheating during the college entrance exams. Her future is in total ruins. And she still foolishly feels grateful to her best friend who had orchestrated it all. Until one day, a Celestial Master spots the deception and takes her as her apprentice. Chi Shuyan rises from the ashes, becoming a blood-soaked demoness, whose name makes people tremble in fear as she slays all evil people. This ends up ending her own life. Reborn once more, she returns to when she is 17-year-old with the memories of her previous life before the college entrance exam. In this life, she is endowed with supernatural powers and can foresee anyone's fate and future with great accuracy. She vows to trample on all those who caused her family's ruin in her past life. But before she can exact her revenge… One day, she touches a business magnate, and sees herself wearing some kind of cat ears sexy outfit coming out of the bathroom before kneeling at the man's suit pants, calling him Daddy! Chi Shuyan is shocked: How bad is my life going to be in the future? How can it be so indecent!

However, this life is fated to be a little different after meeting her. Making money in summer vacation. "There are too many crooks these days." “Exactly, they perfectly able, but they don't look for a good job.” A group of people points at Chi Shuyan, who has set up a fortune telling stall. On the one hand, she is discouraged from pretending to be a swindler, but also encouraged to resemble one slightly. Chi Shuyan stays firm, drawing talismans while sucking on a lollipop. One month later… "Master Chi, fortunately you told my fortune. You allowed me to escape the misfortune." "Master Chi, how much is this Ghost Ward Talisman? I want 10 of them!" "Master Chi, can you help me calculate my family's luck in passing? Money is not a problem." People’s eyes glow as they look at Chi Shuyan collecting excessive amounts of money. To look so sage-like even when doing a tacky task of collecting money, she's indeed an erudite expert.

It's about glabella. The glabella brought forth an immense story of mysticism, murder mystery, and supernatural in a different kind of old Victorian-Era England. To put it simply, imagine Sherlock Holmes in isekai, where he joined a church-santioned mercenary cum secret police cum ghost busters, all wrapped in steampunk Victorian England. And lots of glabella.

Cute, give me some

In a Chinese and foreign competition, Team S had fought their way out. This time, they were the champions. Whether it was the audience in the stadium or the audience outside the stadium, everyone was cheering. The next second, the MVP's face appeared on the big screen. The man held the trophy and tilted his head slightly to the microphone in the host's hand. His eyes were fixed on the camera, and his magnetic voice echoed throughout the audience. “The winner is king。” The winner was king. We are the winners, and China is the king. * One night, Shen Qi called Memorial. "Hello? Commemoration." The other side was silent for a while. Shen Qi was about to continue with a memorial when he spoke. "How much?" Shen Qi: "???" How much? "What are you talking about?" Shen Qi frowned and asked. "So you're not here to borrow money." Memorial took a deep breath as if it was important. "Why did you say that I came to borrow money?" Shen Qi asked. Shen Qi heard the door close on the other end of the phone. Then, he answered," Usually, when people who haven't contacted you for a long time suddenly call, 90% of them are here to borrow money." Shen Qi was speechless.
