Later, the two of them discussed that the children in the orphanage had no parents and they did not have a child. They could adopt one. The two of them had made sufficient preparations. There was also a child that they liked in the orphanage. Just as they were about to take the child home, the child fell ill and passed away.
He was a soldier and only believed in science. At that time, he did not think about fate at all. He only thought that it was a coincidence. Later on, because he was too busy, the adoption of the child didn’t continue.
Now it seemed that it wasn’t a coincidence. Was it because of his bad fate? If that was the case, didn’t the adopted child die because of him?

When he thought of this, a wave of guilt surged into his heart, and Gao Yan’s expression became even worse.
Su Meng saw through Gao Yan’s thoughts, she comforted him, “Officer Gao, you don’t have to blame yourself for this matter. The child’s death has nothing to do with you. It’s his parents’ sins that have been returned to the child. It’s a pity that the child was still so young. He didn’t know anything, yet he had to bear the responsibility of his parents.”
After being comforted by Su Meng, Gao Yan’s mood did not relax. No matter what, the child was innocent.
Shen Jian looked at Su Meng in shock. Although he could see that Gao Yan’s fate was not good, he was not as meticulous as Su Meng. Su Meng could even see through such a secret matter.
“Is there a solution?” Gao Yan did not even realize it himself. He had already begun to believe in Su Meng.
“There is, but it is very difficult,” Su Meng said.
“How much compensation do you need?” To Gao Yan, it was probably just spending more money or preparing for some ceremony. No matter what it was, with a position like his, it was a small matter.
However, Su Meng shook her head and said in a deep voice, “I don’t need money. Listen to me first before you decide whether to carry it out or not.”
“Your fate is really bad. According to the trajectory of your childhood, if you didn’t join the army or never did good things, then all the bad things would have happened to you. However, you have always had a tenacity that refused to accept your fate. You did everything you could and joined the army to protect your family and country. After doing good things for half of your life, your fate has become much better.”
“Originally, you were destined to be childless. However, due to your change of fate, you had a son. However, your son… was a little unlucky and left.”
“Now, if you want to change your fate, there is only one way. Exchange your life with someone else.”
“Exchange my life? What does that mean?” Gao Yan had never heard of such a thing. He did not understand what Su Meng was saying.
Shen Jian, who was at the side, heard that there was finally a piece of knowledge that he knew. He interrupted and explained, “Life exchange is to use your own life to exchange with another person, just like how we exchange for fruit to eat.”
“You choose a fate that you like and find a feng shui master to help you exchange with that person using a magic array. Then, your fate will change, and that person will have your current fate.”
“Am I right, Boss?” After Shen Jian said that, he smiled at Su Meng Like a primary school student showing off his knowledge.
“Isn’t this cheating?” After Shen Jian’s explanation, Gao Yan understood and his face darkened.
“Of course, I’m just telling you the solution. Whether you want to do it or not depends on you. Although you’re full of justice, I still have to remind you that although life exchange is easy, the side effects are also very big.”
“This is already considered an extremely difficult spell in feng shui. I’ve never seen a real life exchanging spell, so I don’t know about the side effects. I only know that defying the heavens and changing fate will definitely not be tolerated by the heavens.”
Gao Yan did not say anything else after hearing this. Su Meng did not say anything either, only looking at him quietly.
Actually, she also knew this kind of spell, but it was easy to harm people, so she never told others that she knew it. Exchanging lives could exchange for a good life, but it could also exchange for a bad life. No matter what, it was a heaven-defying act. She had not lived enough and did not want to court death.

She told Gao Yan because he was full of justice and had a red aura. She believed that Gao Yan would not do that.
After a moment of silence, Gao Yan did not continue to discuss the topic of exchanging lives with Su Meng. Instead, he looked at the time and said anxiously, “Oh no, there’s not enough time. You two sit tight. You must fasten your seatbelts.”
“Ah, what?” Shen Jian did not react and asked again.
However, Gao Yan did not give him an explanation. After driving out of the downtown area, he stepped on the accelerator and the car directly rushed out.
Shen Jian and Su Meng did not lean against their chairs. The car suddenly accelerated. Due to inertia, the two of them leaned back and knocked into the backrest. The off-road car felt like a roller coaster ride.
The speed of the car was too fast. The scenery on both sides of the road retreated rapidly and formed a line. Shen Jian’s heart rate increased and he could not help but shout, “Too fast, too fast…!”
