Huo Jinning had to get out of the car at the service area to use the restroom because she had drunk too much of her beverage.

On her way back, Huo Jinning, still dazed, got on the wrong bus.

"Sister, let me tell you, I was in the restroom just now..." Huo Jinning said as she drove, but after starting the car, she realized there was a man in it and that she had mistaken the car for hers, so she stopped talking.

Before me stood a group of men in their twenties, all strikingly handsome.

His skin had a healthy wheat color, and his face was well-defined, as if sculpted by a master craftsman. His high nose bridge and resolute jawline revealed his inner determination and confidence.

His eyes were like deep lakes, full of mystery, and his hair was neatly trimmed, showing his competence and spirit.

He was wearing a well-tailored suit.

His demeanor was sharp and imposing; even when he was just sitting quietly, he exuded an aura that made people afraid to look him in the eye.

Huo Jinning couldn't take her eyes off good-looking people, so she stared at them intently, forgetting to react.

Xiao Liu [Ding! There's some gossip.]

It was only when Xiao Liu spoke up that Huo Jinning regained her composure.

Let me see...

[Oh, so it's the reclusive Fu family, mysterious and low-key, we only know their name, but never who holds power or is in charge...]

[So this is the person standing right in front of me.]

[If it weren't for Xiao Liu, I wouldn't know.]

[Isn't he my sister's future husband's cousin?]

[The male protagonist's older cousin in the original book is also a benefactor of the Huo family.]

[This person contributed a great deal of effort to my sister's ability to manage the Huo family business effectively.]

[In the original book, he took Wei Jinning, who was being abused at home, to the hospital. Although Wei Jinning ultimately couldn't be saved, he was the one who bought a burial plot for her, ensuring she wouldn't become a wandering ghost.]

[Although now that I'm here, he doesn't need to save me anymore, he has indirectly done me a favor.]

[His car's brake pads have been damaged, and he's about to have an accident.]

How can I remind him of that?

[Besides, it's a shame such a handsome person lost his legs.]

[But people might not believe what I say, right?]

Fu Qinian looked at the girl who opened the car door. She was about twenty years old, dressed in sportswear, exuding vitality and agility.

On her round face, a pair of large, bright eyes shone like stars in the night sky, radiating intelligence and charm.

Her smile was as bright as the sun, and her adorable appearance made people fall in love with her.

The reason why Fu Qinian did not drive Huo Jinning away directly like he would with others was that Huo Jinning's gaze towards him revealed only simple appreciation, without any desire to possess her.

There was also a hint of concern and regret.

You should know that no girl had ever looked at him like that before!

After all, as the current head of the mysterious Fu family, Fu Qinian rarely makes public appearances.

Most people have only heard of him but never seen him, but the little girl standing in front of them right now...

"Um... let me tell you, I can actually tell fortunes, do you believe me?" Huo Jinning racked her brains for an excuse to make Gu Shichu realize that there might be something wrong with the car.

There's nothing we can do now, that's all we can say for now.

"Hmm." Fu Qinian nodded succinctly.

His face was as still as water, and he looked very serious, indicating that he was willing to listen to what this little girl could come up with.

"Alright, show me your hand?" Huo Jinning sat down in the back seat of the car, also to make it easier to pretend to look at Gu Shichu's handprint.

Fu Qinian extended his right hand without saying a word. Even he himself couldn't explain why he was so obedient to this little girl's control. Perhaps it was some kind of indescribable sense of trust deep in his heart.

"Judging from the lines on your palm, you may face a calamity today. This calamity is filled with bloodlust and is likely related to life and death; there will probably be a bloody disaster!" Huo Jinning said in a serious and pretentious manner.

[I can't take it anymore, I can't take it anymore...]

She inwardly groaned in despair.

[I'm going to keep playing the ghost...]

She forced herself to calm down and secretly cheered herself up.

[But how can I tell him that there's a problem with the car?]

She frowned, racking her brains for a solution.

We need to figure out a way to smooth things over...

In an instant, all sorts of thoughts flashed through her mind.

Fu Qinian had been keeping an eye on Huo Jinning, but he was surprised to find that even though the other party hadn't said anything, he could clearly hear her voice.

Could it be that this is the voice coming from the heart of this little girl?

What shocked him even more was that the little girl bluntly stated that there was a problem with the vehicle!

What exactly happened? And how did she find out about it?

Fu Qinian's expression grew increasingly serious, his eyes filled with vigilance and wariness.

"Is there a way to break this?" Fu Qinian asked in a deep voice.

[That's a good question! Now I can explain the reason logically.]

Huo Jinning was secretly delighted.

[Hehe, you're welcome.]

A slight upturn at the corners of her lips revealed a barely perceptible hint of smugness.

Immediately afterwards, Huo Jinning stretched out his other hand in a pretentious manner, made a few casual gestures in the air, and then lowered his voice to say mysteriously, "I have calculated that this is an omen of a car accident."

"What's the solution? Is there a way to break it?" Fu Qinian pressed.
