I Rule Fortune-Telling Livestreams-Chapter 27: Brain-dead Fan

If something like this had happened in the Cultivation World, Shen Zhiyao could have gathered her Spiritual Power and killed the person with a single strike.

But this world had its own laws of the Heavenly Dao. Now that she was a person of this world, she had to abide by its rules.

In the end, Shen Zhiyao called the police.

The police arrested the girl for breaking and entering and for assault.

At that point, Shen Zhiyao also told the police about the time the girl had pushed her onto the road.

The incident had happened on a major road, with surveillance cameras everywhere.

The surveillance footage clearly showed a group of people pushing Shen Zhiyao into the middle of the road, causing her to be sent flying by a car. This constituted murder.

However, Shen Zhiyao’s soul had transmigrated into the body, and she had come back to life in the morgue, so she wasn’t officially declared dead.

Therefore, it was a case of attempted murder.

Following the leads, the police arrested twelve of the obsessive fans who had nearly killed Shen Zhiyao.

As for the girl who had attacked her with a knife, with multiple charges stacked against her, she would be locked up for many years at least.

At the moment she was about to be taken into custody, the girl finally became scared. She started shouting that she had just turned eighteen and didn’t know any better, begging Shen Zhiyao to forgive her.

She said through her tears, "I’m the one who pushed you onto the road, but you didn’t die, right? So please don’t press charges against me!"

She continued, "I only did that to you for Brother Ye’s sake! If I get arrested, I won’t be able to support Brother Ye anymore. If Brother Ye can’t see me, he’ll be sad."

She also said, "Brother Ye’s career has been affected so much, while you only *almost* lost your life! Why are you being so dramatic? I only pushed you because I care so much about Brother Ye. What did I do wrong?"

From beginning to end, she didn’t offer a single word of apology. She even felt that her actions were in defense of Zhou Ye and that she had done nothing wrong.

Shen Zhiyao’s perception of reality was shattered yet again.

Through the iron bars of the holding cell, Shen Zhiyao leaned close to the girl’s ear and whispered, "You already killed me. Tell me, how am I supposed to forgive you?"

A thread of Spiritual Power coalesced in her words, entering the girl’s brain through her ear.

Images that ordinary people couldn’t see began to appear in the girl’s mind: in them, Shen Zhiyao was bleeding from all seven orifices, her bones shattered, rushing toward her in an extremely grotesque posture...

The girl’s eyes widened in terror. Finally realizing something, she stumbled backward. "You... you’re a ghost?"

Shen Zhiyao smiled. "That’s right. From now on, my ghost soul will haunt you every day, until the moment you die."

In the end, the girl was sentenced to seven years in prison.

Soon, the news of Zhou Ye’s obsessive fan attacking someone with a knife caused quite a stir online.

Several film production companies that Kang Naixin had been negotiating with had finally relented, agreeing not to replace Zhou Ye.

But who would have thought that just as they agreed, something like this would happen.

All sorts of accusations flew in. The director was furious and immediately recast all of Zhou Ye’s movie roles.

Zhou Ye faced a breach of contract penalty as high as thirty million.

Now he was in a complete panic and ran to find Kang Naixin again.

Kang Naixin laughed in exasperation. "I told you to have the sasaeng fans harass Shen Zhiyao in her daily life, not to instigate them to kill her."

Zhou Ye panicked too. "I just complained a little! I didn’t expect them to be so extreme! This has nothing to do with me, Sister Xin’er. You have to help me!"

Kang Naixin did indeed like Zhou Ye’s face. She was a bit frustrated with his failure to live up to expectations, but she still agreed to continue helping him.

She once again called Reckless Young Master Jin, hoping he could help get Shen Zhiyao kicked off Douyin Live Stream.

What she got in return was Reckless Young Master Jin’s fury. "Kang Naixin, you listen to me! Shen Zhiyao is my ancestral grandma now, and I’m going to worship her as such. My life depends on her protection! Whoever dares to go against my ancestral grandma is my enemy! And that includes you!"

After saying his piece, he hung up the phone, refusing to listen to any more of Kang Naixin’s nonsense.

Kang Naixin was fuming, but then she heard Zhou Ye mutter, "I was wondering how Shen Zhiyao dared to oppose us. So she’s latched onto Young Master Jin as her sugar daddy!"

Kang Naixin slammed the table and cursed, "Jin Fan, that fucking idiot, actually got involved with that kind of woman! He’s willing to make an enemy of me just to build her up! I trusted him so much, and he pulls this kind of stunt. No wonder my uncle doesn’t like him!"

But no matter what a mess Jin Fan was, he was still the eldest son of the Jin family.

Kang Naixin couldn’t afford to have a complete falling-out with him.

"The most important thing right now is to save your career. Your movie roles are gone, you can’t get any TV drama scripts, so we’ll have to find another way. I have a lot of endorsement deals and red carpet events next month. Here’s the plan: I’ll find a way to get you on some variety shows. You can use them to build up some goodwill and maintain your public exposure."

"As for that bitch Shen Zhiyao... let’s just leave her be for now..." The mere mention of Shen Zhiyao’s name gave Kang Naixin a headache.

More importantly, there was nothing she could do about Shen Zhiyao.

She was clearly just some insignificant nobody, yet every attempt to deal with her had failed, and Kang Naixin had only ended up causing trouble for herself.

"We’ll deal with it after my cousin gets over this phase. He can’t possibly protect her forever. My uncle is holding a birthday banquet next month, and my aunt will be back for it. All it will take is one phone call from my aunt, and Shen Zhiyao will disappear from the live streaming platform for good. Taking care of her will be a piece of cake!"

"Okay, okay, I’ll listen to whatever you say."

Zhou Ye had always been spineless, never daring to get angry at big-name celebrities. He was secretly glad that he had latched onto Kang Naixin, which was the only reason he’d had a chance to raise his status in the first place.

Reckless Young Master Jin returned to Beijing with the bamboo branch Shen Zhiyao had given him.

At first, he was worried the branch would turn yellow, but after carrying it for three days, it was still a vibrant green and hadn’t yellowed at all.

Ever since he got this bamboo branch, no more bad luck had befallen him.

Even the injury on his foot was gradually getting better, and the wounds on his body were healing quickly.

Now it didn’t hurt to walk, and he didn’t get injured when he went out.

Now, he was completely and utterly convinced by Shen Zhiyao’s abilities.

He would tune into Shen Zhiyao’s live stream every night and watch the entire thing, occasionally dropping some ridiculously effusive praise in the comments.

Unfortunately, Shen Zhiyao’s fans were too enthusiastic, and his sycophantic comments were quickly buried by the army of fans.

He had originally wanted to send more gifts, but Shen Zhiyao had once again emphasized the gift limit.

He was afraid of being kicked out of the live stream room, so he didn’t dare to spam them.

This day, just as he opened the live stream, his phone rang. It was his good-for-nothing friends asking him to go to a nightclub.

He went to the nightclub and danced until midnight. His friends felt they hadn’t had enough fun and were ready to move to another venue to keep the party going.

His friend, eyeing Reckless Young Master Jin’s new Porsche, said, "Young Master Jin, haven’t you been having a streak of bad luck recently? How about I drive!"

Reckless Young Master Jin said, "What are you talking about! I *used* to be unlucky, but now I have an Amulet. Forget driving a car, I’d be fine even if I were firing a cannon!"

That’s what he said, but Shen Zhiyao’s words kept replaying in his mind: ’As long as you don’t court death yourself, this bamboo branch will be able to protect you completely.’

So, despite his boasts, he didn’t dare to speed. He drove the supercar so slowly it felt like he was on an electric scooter.
