When Yun Wanwan came out of Prince An's Mansion after handing over the military power to Rong Chengxuan, she suddenly felt that she might be able to make money by fortune-telling in the future.

In reality, Yun Wanwan hadn't just come up with this idea all of a sudden. She'd already had the general idea in mind when she was reading Su Yuanyuan's fortune. Later, after seeing Taoist Huang reading fortunes on the street, Yun Wanwan had completely made up her mind to open her own fortune-telling shop.

Yun Wanwan didn't intend to tell Rong Chengxuan about this, as she wanted to complete the work on her own. However, Yun Wanwan still underestimated the difficulty of opening a shop in ancient times.

Yun Wanwan took Qingyao to run around several times before signing the contract for the shop. Yun Wanwan bought a shop that had already been renovated. She signed the contract because the decoration style of the shop was to her liking.

Everything was ready, and they were just waiting for an auspicious day to open the business. On the eve of the opening, Yun Wanwan told Rong Chengxuan that she planned to open a fortune-telling shop.

When Rong Chengxuan heard Yun Wanwan was planning to open her own shop, he paused flipping through the book he was reading and looked up at her. "Would you like me to help you? There's a lot I can do for you, like finding a shop."

Yun Wanwan had been hiding what she had been busy with during this period from Rong Chengxuan, just to wait for the moment when Rong Chengxuan would ask her if she needed help.

Yun Wanwan smiled and pulled out a land deed from her sleeve. She placed it in front of Rong Chengxuan and said proudly, "No need for your help. I've taken care of everything myself."

When Rong Chengxuan saw Yun Wanwan take out the land deed, a hint of disappointment appeared on his face. "Although I'm happy to see you, Wanwan, able to complete these things on your own, I still feel a little disappointed inside. This makes me feel like I can't help you at all."

Yun Wanwan reached out and smoothed Rong Chengxuan's brow. "Who said you can't help me? On the day of the shop's opening, I need someone to be there to help. After much thought, I feel that His Highness Prince An is the most suitable. I just don't know if His Highness Prince An is willing to help me."

Rong Chengxuan chuckled, "Of course I'm willing. I'd like to thank Miss Yun for thinking so highly of me and inviting me to help you out."

Yun Wanwan waved her hand and said proudly, "No need to thank me. Just stay in the shop for a while. We need to let all the local tyrants in the capital know who's behind this shop. And when you collect protection money, remember to take a detour to collect it."

Rong Chengxuan laughed after hearing this and said, "So this is my only role?"

Yun Wanwan thought about it carefully, then shook her head. "I just thought about it carefully, and I realized that you could actually help me attract customers. After all, His Highness Prince An is a living signboard wherever he goes. But I don't need you as a living signboard just yet. If my shop really can't continue to operate, I'll contact you again."

Rong Chengxuan also nodded seriously, as if he had truly taken Yun Wanwan's words to heart. "Then remember to come find me next time. If you come to me in person, I can give you a free service."

When the actual opening day came, Yun Wanwan had completely underestimated the amount of traffic her store would receive.

Perhaps it was because it was the first time I had seen a fortune teller occupying such a large shop, or perhaps it was because the fortune teller was a woman. These two unusual things combined gave people a sense of novelty.

People are always interested in new things, so Yun Wanwan's store attracted quite a few customers from the first day of its opening.

Yun Wanwan roughly calculated how much money she could earn from fortune-telling in a day. If business was good, one thousand taels of silver a day would be no problem. Even if business was average, Yun Wanwan could still earn at least seven or eight hundred taels of silver a day.

This number is quite reasonable, and it brings him one step closer to his goal of supporting Rong Chengxuan.

But Yun Wanwan never thought that her shop would be in trouble less than a month after it opened.

Yun Wanwan looked at the lady standing in front of her. If she ignored the servants standing behind her, all of whom looked extremely vicious, Yun Wanwan would probably just treat her as an ordinary guest.

Before Yun Wanwan could say anything, the lady spoke first, "Are you Yun Wanwan?"

As she spoke, the lady looked her up and down. Yun Wanwan particularly disliked that look, as if she were a commodity on a shelf.

But after all, everyone who came was a guest, and Yun Wanwan knew she couldn't be rude or sarcastic to them. So, she kept a smile on her face and said, "Yes, I am Yun Wanwan. I wonder why Madam came to see me?"

The lady nodded and said, "I came to see you because I have something to tell you."

Yun Wanwan had thought the lady was simply looking for a quick chat, but who would have thought the next moment she'd point her finger at Yun Wanwan's nose and start hurling curses at her. "Yun Wanwan, you shameless bitch! You're already engaged to Prince An, yet you're trying to seduce my master! Tell me! What are your intentions?"

Yun Wanwan was completely confused by the lady's words. She had no idea what seduction meant or what her intentions were.

Seeing Yun Wanwan standing there in a daze, the lady thought that Yun Wanwan admitted what she had just said, and her words became even more outrageous.

Amidst the lady's cursing, Yun Wanwan finally extracted some useful information. It turned out that this lady was the legitimate wife of Minister Guo. Minister Guo would come to Yun Wanwan for fortune-telling after leaving court these days, rain or shine, just as punctually as when he went to court.

As time went by, Mrs. Guo naturally became suspicious, because Yun Wanwan was shameless enough to not only get close to Rong Chengxuan, but even a minor official like Minister Guo was not spared.

After Yun Wanwan knew the whole story, she couldn't help but smile bitterly for a moment. She could only wait until Mrs. Guo got tired of scolding and stopped before she finished explaining to her.

After hearing Yun Wanwan's explanation, Mrs. Guo wished she could find a hole in the ground to crawl into. It turned out that Minister Guo came to Yun Wanwan's shop every day to tell her fortune, which was not what she had imagined.

As soon as Yun Wanwan finished speaking, Madam Guo immediately said, "I'm sorry, Miss Yun! I misunderstood you just now, and what I said just now was unintentional."

Yun Wanwan smiled understandingly, "It's okay, Madam Guo. You already said it was all a misunderstanding. It's all fine once we clear it up."
