Chapter 4
“What do you want to know about?”
The woman didn’t hesitate. “My marriage prospects.”
As Shen Chun studied her face, she felt that she was a little strange. In the end, she simply asked the woman to extend her hand. “You’re born noble and have great luck with men, but none of them are suitable for marriage, so your possibility of marriage is very low.”
Shen Chun’s divination wasn’t positive, but the woman burst out laughing. “Is there anything else?”
Anything else?
Passion flashed across the woman’s eyes, but there was also a hint of death.
“You have a dead friend?”
The woman was stunned. Her expression was no longer as aloof as before, and she looked at Shen Chun with enthusiasm as she frantically took out a few bank cards from her bag and stuffed them all into Shen Chun’s hand.
“He’s indeed an old friend of mine. Take a look and see if there’s still a possibility between him and me. Can you let me see him?! As long as you can do it, this money is yours! No! These are just a deposit. As long as you can let us meet, I’ll give you even more money.”
Shen Chun shook her head. “The living and and the dead are permanently separated. Even if there’s fate between the two of you, you should let it go.”
“We’re fated!” The woman didn’t listen to her advice. She found all the valuable things on her, including her bag, and placed them in Shen Chun’s hand. “I beg you. As long as you can help me, I can give you anything you want! I’m the eldest daughter of the Xu family, Xu Yan. You’ve probably heard of me.”
Everyone in the country knew about the Xu family.
The Xu family’s ancestors had brought the family immense prosperity, but in this generation, only Xu Yan was left.
Therefore, Xu Yan’s promise represented the entire Xu family’s promise. This was a very tempting offer.
However, Shen Chun was still hesitating. If she accepted this, she would have to bear the consequences.
Xu Yan stuffed her business card into Shen Chun’s hand and asked for Shen Chun’s contact information. “I know your guild has many taboos and that there might be dire consequences if things go wrong, but I can give you everything you can think of. I can even build a temple for you. If you make up your mind, you have to contact me.”
Xu Yan left in dismay. As Shen Chun looked at the business card in her hand, she thought for a moment before putting it in her bag.

On the other side, Fu Shi also walked out of the bar.
He glanced at the note in his hand and threw it into the trash can beside him. Did she really think he would fall for this trick?
His assistant Luo Yong had already driven the car over. He opened the door respectfully and waited for Fu Shi to sit down before returning to the driver’s seat.
“President Fu, there’s news from the Su family that Miss Su has something on at the last minute and asked to meet you another day.”
Fu Shi sneered in displeasure. “Tell the Su family that we don’t have to see each other anymore.”
“But…” Luo Yong hesitated. “Old Master still wants to get you and Miss Su engaged, so you shouldn’t reject her so quickly.”
“I’ve already given them a chance.”
Fu Shi took off his suit. The smell of alcohol made him frown. He had never liked bars. This time, he had only come because of Miss Su’s invitation, but after waiting inside for an hour, he only received a last-minute message and was blown off.
“However, the Old Master saw a fortune teller who said that the Su family’s eldest daughter’s horoscope coincides with yours and can save you from your destiny. This is fate!”
Fu Shi’s wife-jinxing tendencies had been starting to show since he was young. None of the women who approached him had a good ending. Getting injuries was already considered light. The serious ones were like his ex-fiancée, who was still lying in the hospital. Fu Shi had visited her a few times, but every time, her condition worsened. Without Fu Shi around, her condition gradually improved.
Old Master Fu invited a fortune teller and canceled the engagement for them. Because of Fu Shi’s destiny, there were very few women around him. Even his secretary was a man.
It wasn’t easy for them to find someone suitable, but now, Miss Su had offended President Fu. Although the Su family had indeed gone overboard, Luo Yong didn’t want to see his boss stay a bachelor for the rest of his life.
“It’s superstition. Grandpa just wants an excuse to force me to marry earlier. My marriage is up to me. It’s not up to others to interfere.”
Luo Yong stopped talking. Old Master Fu definitely wouldn’t give up on Miss Su, his destined granddaughter-in-law. Even if President Fu didn’t want to marry her, he had to marry her.
