Chapter 139: I Am Going to Run Them Over!

With Dai Xiaomei on the scene, Jiang Yun looked toward his car without hesitation.

He saw a woman standing next to his car, which had been parked on the side of the road, accompanied by a young child. The child was staring at the vehicle with a serious expression, seemingly lost in thought. Suddenly, the boy turned to the woman and said, "Aunt, this car is so beautiful!"

*Phew.*

Jiang Yun breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this. His first instinct had been that he was dealing with some brat about to scratch his paint job. At least the way the boy spoke didn't seem like a troublemaker.

Wait. If it wasn't a brat, why was his right eyelid twitching?

Just as the thought crossed his mind, he heard the woman laugh dismissively. "It's just a little piece of junk, and it only seats two people. Nothing to look at."

With that, perhaps out of some strange impulse, she kicked the car door twice. To make matters worse, she was wearing high heels.

"Damn it!" Jiang Yun’s heart tightened as he watched her.

The next second, whether due to excessive force or sheer clumsiness, the heel of her shoe snapped off. She lost her balance and lunged forward, and the broken heel of her shoe dragged across the car, leaving a long, deep scratch along the side.

Jiang Yun: "..."

The harsh, grating sound of metal scraping against metal drew everyone's attention. Dai Xiaomei, Xue Zhiqian, and the others looked over at Jiang Yun’s car. When they saw the scratch, their mouths fell open in shock.

*Huh?* No way. The moment he finished speaking, his car got wrecked? Isn't this getting a bit too cursed?

Just then, the corner of Jiang Yun’s eye caught a flash of red light. But when he looked back toward where it had appeared, there was nothing there. He couldn't help but furrow his brow.

Something was wrong. Very wrong.

While Jiang Yun had previously been somewhat inclined to believe in the idea of his zodiac signs clashing with Dai Xiaomei’s, the taxi tire blowout yesterday and the scratch on his car today went far beyond simple astrology. It had reached an absurd, metaphysical level. It was as if they were trapped in a special, bizarre "NPC bond."

Is this reasonable? Absolutely not. Since it wasn't reasonable, Jiang Yun subconsciously thought of the System. After all, the System had previously granted him similarly irrational things, like the "Lone Star of Heavenly Evil" trait.

"Open personal information panel," Jiang Yun commanded in his mind. This was his first time checking his status, as he had never felt the need before.

A virtual screen shimmered into existence before him.

[Host: Jiang Yun (Extrasensory Perception Magnetic Field Enhancement) (System Livestream Magnetic Field Enhancement)]

Jiang Yun noticed the two "Magnetic Field Enhancements." One was the reward from his previous check-in, but the other, "System Livestream Magnetic Field Enhancement," was a mystery. Fortunately, the System provided a description.

*System Livestream Magnetic Field Enhancement: Automatically obtained upon binding with the Livestream Check-in System. It helps the host strengthen their personal magnetic field to make their livestreaming career smoother. Furthermore...*

The description was long, but Jiang Yun quickly grasped the essence. It was a passive ability granted upon binding with the system. Much like the extrasensory perception enhancement, this passive trait altered his body's magnetic field—specifically, it adjusted it to favor his livestreaming outcomes.

In simpler terms, if the audience identified Jiang Yun with a certain aspect of his livestreaming, the System would nudge his surrounding magnetic field to align with that perception.

In other words, his zodiac signs weren't clashing with Dai Xiaomei’s. It was just that after several coincidental accidents, his fans had decided they were "incompatible," so the System had adjusted his magnetic field to reflect that. When their fields collided, unexpected changes occurred—and since the fans associated their "clash" with cars, those changes inevitably involved his vehicles.

The same applied to his encounters with Fang Siqi. The first few times might have been coincidental, but once his fans saw his video—where Fang Siqi famously said, "If you meet him, it’s the start of a criminal case"—the fans accepted that narrative, and his magnetic field began to clash with hers as well.

If Jiang Yun were to call Fang Siqi over right now, even if nothing was happening, a criminal case would inevitably break out the moment she arrived.

This was why so many abstract, bizarre things happened around him. It was because the tag the fans had given him was "abstract." The most common thing his fans said was, "As long as Jiang Yun is standing there, whatever happens is reasonable." This led his magnetic field to become increasingly "abstract."

Because of this passive ability, Jiang Yun had become a true, "acquired master of the abstract."

Fortunately, this passive effect could be manually disabled. Without hesitation, Jiang Yun spoke to the System in his mind: "Disable System Livestream Magnetic Field Enhancement."

[Ding! System Livestream Magnetic Field Enhancement is being disabled and reverting...]
[Ding! Reversion complete!]

Jiang Yun breathed a sigh of relief. Finally, he was normal again. While the passive effect might have improved his livestreaming results, the potential risks were too high. What if, one day, some brain-dead fan gave him a weird nickname like "Airplane Saint Body"? Whether it meant a literal airplane or the slang term for masturbation, both would be devastating—one would kill him, the other would exhaust him. Who could handle that?

It wasn't impossible, considering his current list of nicknames: "Abstract Saint Body," "War God of Chunxi Road," "Edogawa Keyun," "Dai Xiaomei's Sports Car Assassin"... Was there a single respectable one in the bunch?

"Hey, what are you thinking about? They've already run off," Dai Xiaomei said, nudging him.

Jiang Yun snapped back to reality. Seeing that the two people were gone, he turned to Dai Xiaomei and the others. "The easter egg recording should be done, right? I’m heading back."

With that, he walked toward his McLaren.

Seeing this, Dai Xiaomei asked instinctively, "We only filmed for a few minutes? Where are you going now?"

Jiang Yun didn't look back. "I'm going to drive over and kill them!"

Dai Xiaomei: ???!!!
