This Witch Transmigrated into the Romantic Novel's Supporting Role-Chapter 196: Money

A week later, Chi Yan received a phone call from President Su.

"I apologize for bothering you with a personal matter, Mr. Chi."

"Go ahead."

"When we signed the contract last time, my wife accompanied me to your office. After smelling the incense in your office that day, her sleep improved significantly. I've tried to find some calming incense for her since then, which has had a small effect, but her headaches still persist. So I wanted to ask where you got your incense from, and if there's any more available. I'm willing to pay for it."

Chi Yan immediately thought of the incense that Yang had lit for him, but it was already gone. He hadn't burned any for a while, and yesterday the head of the PR department had even sheepishly asked him about it.

"I'm sorry, but that incense is no longer available. However, I know the person who makes it. I can ask them for you."

"That would be great, thank you so much. Money is no object."

"It's no trouble. I'll get back to you."

"Alright, thank you."

...

After work, Chi Yan went home and told Chu Yang about this. "It's fine if you don't want to make it. I can just decline."

Chu Yang shook her head. "It's okay, I can do it. It's just a bit complicated and might take some time. Also, because the materials are quite expensive, we should ask for a deposit first. But I can only make this occasionally. I can't do it too often."

It was time-consuming and labor-intensive. Making this was really not worth the effort, even less so than the previously made rat poison.

"Alright."

Chi Yan quickly communicated with Su Quanjin, who immediately transferred 2 million yuan.

Chu Yang started working on it in her room again. With exams approaching, she was quite busy.

After about ten days of intermittent work, Chu Yang finally produced a small cake of incense. Chi Yan sent it over, and President Su transferred another 1 million yuan.

As the exam period ended, Chu Yang was preparing to go home, but Chi Yan wanted her to delay her return by a few days.

"I need to attend a banquet in a few days and I need a female companion. Would you come with me?"

"Sure," Chu Yang agreed.

Chi Yan was slowly bringing her into his world. He imagined that in the future, whether attending banquets, balls, or any other events, Chu Yang would always be by his side.

"I'll have someone send over an evening gown in a couple of days."

"You arrange it."

"Okay."

Chu Yang first called home to inform them about the delayed return. After the call, she thought about how she might develop her career in Jing City in the future, but her parents were in Jiazhou City, too far away for her to take good care of them.

Maybe she could buy a house in Jing City and have her parents move here?

Thinking of buying a house, Chu Yang went online to check... These houses, she couldn't afford one even if she sold herself.

Indeed, she was still a bit poor. Well, not exactly poor, as she did have money in her account, but the housing prices in Jing City were ridiculously high. It was clear she needed to work hard to earn more money.

Chu Yang opened Weibo: "Today's prediction: Another big celebrity will fall from grace this week. Please be prepared."

"Has our blogger turned into a gossip columnist today?"

"Which celebrity is it this time? We're getting used to these scandals in the entertainment industry."

"A big celebrity? Could it be that person? There were rumors circulating earlier."

"Who? Who are you talking about?"

"Blogger, instead of predicting celebrity news, I'd like to know when it will snow in Shazhou City this year. The weather is getting colder."

The prediction blogger replied: Shazhou City will have snow at the end of January.

"The blogger actually replied to me! Okay, thanks!"

"Blogger, help! Please check the private message I sent you."

This was from a client.

Chu Yang saw the message and went to check her private messages. As her followers increased, she received more and more messages, sometimes too many to read. She would occasionally check them when she wanted to make some money.

Soon, Chu Yang found the private message from that follower: "Dear esteemed blogger, I'm currently working on St. Rees Island abroad. Recently, this small island has been quite strange. Crabs are crawling up from the sea all over the mountains, but it's not the crab breeding season. At night, the sky's afterglow is exceptionally red. A few days ago, while I was driving, a small bird flew straight into my car as if committing suicide.

A few days ago, we also had a small earthquake here, though it was only magnitude 3. I feel very uneasy, so I wanted to ask if you could predict whether anything will happen to this island?"

Afterwards, the client transferred 10,000 yuan to her.

After reading this, Chu Yang could sense something was off just from the text. So she directly replied: "If you feel it's not right, why don't you return to China immediately?"

The client responded: "I've been working here for a long time, and there aren't many flights back to China. Besides, the locals told me that such situations are quite common here and there's nothing to worry about. They told me to continue working here without concern. I've gotten used to this place, but I still feel a bit uneasy, so I wanted to ask you."

Chu Yang thought about it and realized it made sense. Even the locals didn't think there was anything wrong, and in fact, some places in the world often experience strange occurrences due to their unique geographical factors, without necessarily leading to any catastrophic events.

However, since the client had paid, she decided to make a prediction anyway.

But as she began to predict, Chu Yang directly saw raging flames...

Chu Yang's hand was still on the crystal ball, which had turned red, filled entirely with fire.

She immediately went to the study to find a world map, then located St. Rees Island in the Southern Hemisphere. It was a very small island. Chu Yang did some more research and discovered that underneath this island was actually an active volcano. In other words, this island was actually part of a volcano, but it hadn't erupted for thousands of years.

But perhaps soon, it would start erupting!

After a while, Chu Yang replied to the client: "Did you know this island is a volcanic island?"

"You should return to China as soon as possible. I see something bad, with flames, huge flames." Although she wasn't sure if it was actually a volcanic eruption or something else, there was definitely a lot of fire.

The client quickly replied: "Thank you, blogger." Then transferred another 20,000 yuan.

When Chi Yan returned home, he saw Chu Yang staring at a map, seemingly lost in thought. He noticed her hand resting on a small area in the Southern Hemisphere.

"What's wrong? Why are you suddenly looking at a map? Do you want to go on a trip? If you have time, I can take you," he said.

Chu Yang shook her head. "No, it's not that. Today I made a prediction for a client. I saw something very bad - a disaster might happen in this place."

Chi Yan looked at the spot Chu Yang was pointing to. He knew about this small place; it was famous for producing a certain type of fish that was particularly delicious and expensive.

"This is a volcanic island. I think the volcano is about to erupt," she said.
