After her master's death, the metaphysics genius Lin Xi descends the mountain to set up a stall for fortune-telling, earning money while searching for her fiancé.
"Master, when will m...
Ji Heng came out of the bathroom and took a closer look.
Holy crap! What happened in just one minute?
Qi Wenye held one person down with one hand. The big boss stood arrogantly amidst the fragments of the Buddha statue, while his grandfather looked grief-stricken.
His brother was furious and kept blasting cold air out of the room.
Ji Heng crept closer, "Um, what's going on?"
Before he could finish speaking, his foot slipped, and he flew out and rolled twice on the ground.
"Oh my god!"
Ji Heng was on the verge of tears; he hadn't even figured out what was going on with the melon, and he'd already hurt his bottom.
Just then, Butler Liu returned. "Oh dear, my young master, get up quickly. Are you alright? Should we call a doctor?"
Ji Heng used the momentum to get up, rubbing his bottom. "No need, let's stand to the side."
The center of the melon market is too dangerous; it's safer to go to the side and watch the excitement.
Fu Jianhua was jolted back to reality by the commotion around him. His voice was filled with grief as he cried out, "Fu Wanru, what is this?! Tell me, what is this?!"
Fu Wanru lowered her head, unable to defend herself, "Brother, this is... an accident... Brother Wenzhou and I don't know why such a thing exists."
She couldn't lie; her guilty conscience was written all over her face.
Fu Jianhua was heartbroken; she actually knew there was something inside the Buddha statue.
He initially thought it was Yang Wenzhou's doing without his knowledge, and that his sister was unaware of it. He never expected that the two of them had conspired to deceive him.
Very few people know his birth date and time. His grandson and great-grandson only know the year, month and day of his birth, but not the exact time.
In this world, besides himself, only Fu Wanru and Zhang Wenxiu knew the truth.
Fu Jianhua understood, and Fu Wanru personally put his birth date and time into it.
At that moment, his heart was broken.
"Fu Wanru, I raised you with my own hands, yet you stabbed me for a man, and now you've come up with this monstrous thing to harm me. Ask yourself, have you ever done anything right for me?!"
Fu Wanru sat there blankly, tears welling up in her eyes, "Brother, I can't help it, Tianfan..."
"Wanru!!"
Yang Wenzhou raised his voice, forcefully interrupting her.
Foolish woman, if you keep talking, all the secrets will be exposed.
So what if Fu Jianhua found birth dates and times in the Buddha statue? Even if he called the police, they wouldn't care about such strange things.
Go back to the master; one day he will trample the entire Fu family under his feet!
Yang Wenzhou composed himself, two lines of tears streaming down his face. "Brother, Wanru and I did this for your own good. After the Buddha statue was finished, we found a master to consecrate it."
Fu Jianhua remained expressionless, watching how he would fabricate a story.
Yang Wenzhou swallowed hard. "The master said that if you put your birth date and time into a Buddha statue, Guanyin Bodhisattva can protect you for all eternity."
Fu Jianhua snorted coldly, "Why don't you post your own birth date and time if it's such a good thing?"
Yang Wenzhou changed the subject and started playing the emotional card, "Brother, we hope you're doing well. We were sorry for what we did to you... Wanru and I think about you all the time..."
Fu Jianhua angrily retorted, "You'd be more likely to want me dead! Do you think I'm blind, that my old eyes are too dim to see the big characters on it!"
Zhang Wenxiu patted his chest, "Old man, calm down. It's not worth getting sick over a few outsiders."
Fu Wanru has been a knot in the old man's heart for years; he has a knot of anger stuck in his heart.
It's good to sever this kinship completely now, so the old man won't have to suffer anymore.
Fu Jianhua's breathing became heavier and heavier. "It's nothing."
Lin Xi quickly pressed three acupoints on his body. "Grandpa, leave the rest to me."
Fu Jianhua felt much better instantly, and the air that had been blocking his trachea was released.
Xixi is really amazing, much better than her grandson and great-grandson.
He glanced at Fu Jingyao and Ji Heng.
Upon receiving his look, Ji Heng immediately ran over. "Grandpa, do you need me to help beat someone up? I've been working out lately, and I'm incredibly strong."
He rolled up his sleeves, showing off the flabby flesh on his arms.
With a raised hand, the fat jiggled twice.
Fu Jianhua was amused by his silly grandson and said, "Kid, go away."
Ji Heng stood with his hands on his hips, blocking the way. "I'm not leaving. I want to protect my grandparents."
Fu Jianhua slapped him away, saying, "With your small frame, I'm more likely to protect you."
"Haha, Grandpa, don't be sad." Ji Heng smiled brightly. "You have me, you have Grandma, you have my older brother and boss, no, my sister-in-law, and you also have my older sister and my parents."
Fu Jianhua also smiled, "I'm not sad, not sad at all."
My grandson is right, he still has many relatives.
He and Fu Wanru broke off their relationship twenty years ago.
Fu Jianhua sat back down on the sofa. "Xixi, you can do whatever you want with these people. I will unconditionally agree with any decision you make."
Fu Jingyao immediately chimed in, "Xixi, me too."
Ji Heng raised his hand, "Big brother, me too."
Zhang Wenxiu smiled and said, "Xixi, Grandma too."
Qi Wenye spoke up, "Madam, I am here too."
Butler Liu and Aunt Wu peeked out and silently raised their hands.
The hierarchy within this family is obvious: Linxi is the most powerful, without exception.
Yang Wenzhou was shocked that the Fu family actually listened to a little girl.
Fu Jianhua has always been arrogant and looks down on outsiders, so why is he being so obedient?! Just who is this little girl?!
Oh right, she was the one who broke the Buddha statue and found that yellow talisman!
Yang Wenzhou's eyes widened. "Who are you?!"
Lin Xi walked towards him step by step, "Where did you get this talisman?"
Yang Wenzhou was startled. "Don't come any closer! This was given to you by the master. You destroyed his talisman; he won't forgive you!!"
"Master?" Lin Xi clicked her tongue. "More like a half-baked evil master."
