"Let me tell you, Master. He really loves me. He queued for three hours to reserve a table, even though I paid for the meal... Look, this is the emerald ring he gave me. If he was after my money, why would he be so generous..."
Su Fangli's gaze fell on the woman's hand. A large emerald green stone on her ring finger made a strong presence.
"Master, I think you're seeing things wrong. A-Ming is a good man..."
Stop.
Su Fangli raised her hand to silence the other person. She pulled down her sunglasses with her index finger and lifted the woman's hand to examine the emerald green stone carefully.
Seeing this, the woman cooperated by bending her hands into a nice shape for her to admire.
The gemstone is perfectly cut and has a uniform and transparent color.
Su Fangli spread her empty hand to the side, and the assistant placed a magnifying glass on it at the right time.
After a long and careful examination, I finally saw a raised number near the ring setting, magnified eight times:
ZZ052025.
"Tao Tao, please get me the green bottle of beer in the refrigerator."
Su Fangli said as he stuffed the magnifying glass into the woman's hand.
Under the other person's puzzled gaze, she took the beer bottle from Tao Tao, turned it over, and showed the bottom of the bottle to the woman:
ZZ072025.
Su Fangli tapped the line of small words with her fingertips, pushed her sunglasses aside, and leaned back in her chair.
She didn't say anything, but Tao Tao felt that she must be cursing in her heart.
Who is this person who actually polished a beer bottle and pretended it was an emerald?
"How could it be?! Ah Ming is not that kind of person. Master, are you mistaken?"
Su Fangli couldn't help but roll her eyes, but her sunglasses hid it well. She picked up the tarot cards next to her and began to shuffle them.
The slender white fingertips were flying, and the person shuffling the cards had a calm and reserved temperament, like a painting.
Su Fangli: "Draw five."
The woman closed her mouth, silently recited the question in her mind, and drew the cards reverently.
【demon】
The Hanged Man
【Lovers - reversed】
Seven of Cups
【moon】
Su Fangli pointed out the details one by one: "Manipulation, sacrifice, wrong choices, illusion, fog."
She saw the struggle in the other person's eyes and continued to ask:
"Have you recently experienced neck stiffness, heaviness, rough skin, or weight gain?"
The woman nodded hurriedly, and Su Fangli said in an unfathomable tone: "He is your nemesis."
"What?"
Su Fangli gently stroked the crystal ball in front of her, her fingertips dyed a translucent purple. She said, "I saw a moment in your future. You will have seven daughters and one son."
woman:……
Woman: "But Amin and I are both DINKs."
Su Fangli chuckled and said nothing.
The woman began to mutter as she pondered, "No wonder he keeps mentioning that many of his colleagues are now fathers. So he's trying to test me..."
Just then, the woman's phone rang. She took it out and saw the name on it. She hesitated and looked at Su Fangli.
"As long as you can overcome this hurdle, your future will be smooth, with opportunities and good fortune gradually approaching you. However, fluctuations in your life palace suggest that someone may try to gain advantage, especially when it comes to your family property. We recommend you remain vigilant, consult trusted people when encountering problems, and take legal or financial precautions when necessary."
After Su Fangli finished speaking, she handed the woman a crystal necklace and said, "I hope this can ward off bad luck for you."
The woman took it and thanked him profusely. In those few minutes, the phone rang several more times, but she hung up without a second thought.
After she packed up and left, Tao Tao sighed, "How can people still use beer bottles to store emeralds these days? That's outrageous. But sister, how did you know she would have eight children later?"
Su Fangli sighed, cleared the table, and said, "A few days ago, her boyfriend brought his mother to the shop for divination. He asked if his mother, who gave birth to seven daughters and one son, would inherit his genetic traits."
Tao Tao:shocked face.jpg.
"I'll give you a raise after your internship this month. Be nice to yourself and don't drag yourself down by constantly thinking about finding a boyfriend. Look at these outrageous people."
Su Fangli said this and glanced at her watch. The next appointment started in five minutes.
Tao Tao: "I see, sister. Hehe, you're so nice. Can you help me predict whether I'll have good fortune today? I'll go downstairs and scratch a lottery ticket later."
Su Fangli looked at her with amusement and asked her to draw a card.
【tower】
She looked at the cards for a long time. Tao Tao couldn't see her expression clearly, so she couldn't help asking, "How's it going, sister? Is there any hope?"
Su Fangli put the cards back and said with a smile, "No chance today, but since you're so pitiful, I'll give you half a day off early today. Rounding it up, it still counts as a win."
Tao Tao: "Really? Great! Thank you, sister." She jumped excitedly, then hesitated: "But will I be able to handle it? Otherwise, I'd better stay and accompany you."
"It's okay. There are only two customers left today. I'll close the shop and go back after the visit."
"Sister, see you tomorrow." Tao Tao jumped and pushed the door open.
The person who passed by her was a customer who had an appointment at three in the afternoon.
The client was short, wearing a layered long skirt and an ankle-length coat. She was fully dressed in a hat, mask, and sunglasses, with only the ends of her curly brown hair visible.
"Please take a seat. I've booked an astrology reading. Please fill in your specific place of birth and date of birth."
The guest raised his hand and poked the screen with his finger wrapped in his sleeve.
Masked customers are not uncommon. Many people come for divination and can reveal their private birthdates and places of birth, but they still cover their faces and refuse to show their faces.
It's not often that someone is unwilling to even show their hands.
Su Fangli had no intention of exploring other people's privacy. She didn't know why, but she felt uneasy. She shuffled the cards and drew one for herself:
【grim Reaper】
Su Fangli:......
"Filled it out." The customer tapped his phone, and it made the electronic sound of a tablet.
I didn't even want to reveal my voice.
Su Fangli took the tablet, clicked a few times, and saw the guest's horoscope.
"Is this the guest's horoscope?" she asked. Behind her sunglasses, she carefully observed the guest's reaction.
The guest nodded.
Su Fangli: "What does the guest want to ask today?"
The other party was still poking at the phone with his sleeve-wrapped fingers.
After a long while, he said, "I want to ask about your health. I want to hear the truth. You don't have to be so tactful."
"Your ruling planet is imprisoned in the house of illness. The square aspect between Neptune and the Moon makes you inherently weak and prone to chronic diseases. And the suppression of Saturn in the house of life may cause you to have limited mobility problems after middle age, or even need to be bedridden for a long time."
"How long can I live?"
Su Fangli frowned, her heart alert, but her tone remained calm. "Your horoscope indicates that you do have many health risks, especially chronic illnesses and mobility issues, which will affect your quality of life in the coming years. Your ruling planet is trapped in the twelfth house, which means you may suffer from illness or mental fatigue for a long time. Overall, it will not affect your lifespan."
The customer paused, tapping away at his phone screen. His movements were more rapid than before, and he typed more words.
"I like someone, but my family doesn't support me. I want to give him some money and some property. How can I keep it from my family? And if they do, how can I prevent them from taking it back?"
The electronic sound was plain and emotionless, but Su Fangli sensitively sensed that something was wrong.
When the guest asked how long he could live, she had already pressed a button on the table, which would record the other person's voice and behavior.
She always keeps her professional ethics in mind, but if someone wants to steal her money or kill her, she will never let them go.
"Hmm... Do you have the other person's date and place of birth? I'd like to see their horoscope."
The guest had no doubt and picked up the tablet to order again.
Noticing that the other party was inputting various information without thinking, Su Fangli had a guess in her mind.
Su Fangli frowned as he looked at the second horoscope.
Pluto conjunct Mars in the seventh house suggests a person with a strong desire for control and potentially violent tendencies. A square between the second house ruler and Pluto suggests greed and a focus on money. A square between Venus and Saturn suggests a coldness of emotions and a potential marriage for profit.
You don't need to read the whole thing to get a general idea of the owner of the horoscope.
Su Fangli nodded: "Yes, this is a very reliable person."
The guest nodded repeatedly, and the phone rang: "I'm not in good health, and I want to leave something for him. Do you think it's okay for me to buy an insurance policy for myself?"
Su Fangli: "Excuse me, but your health may not meet the requirements for purchasing insurance."
The guest stiffened.
"Then can you help me calculate, is there any way to do it, Master?"
Su Fangli had completely seen through the other party's intentions. She tapped the phone on the table and made a call.
"Master? Why aren't you speaking? What are you doing?" The other party's movements became more urgent.
"Master, I've already told you what I want, so please do the math!"
Su Fangli looked at the guest and saw through his ugly face through the tightly covered mask and sunglasses.
She scoffed, "Guest, I'm here for divination, not for making wishes."
Hearing this, the guest stood up suddenly and swept everything on the table to the ground.
"Liar! Liar!!"
He finally couldn't help but make a sound, his voice was hoarse and unpleasant.
"You are indeed a man." Su Fangli said.
The other person's body stiffened and he subconsciously covered his face. His hands in his sleeves were thick, short and dark.
Finding the mask still covering his face, he dropped his hand and angrily said, "How did you know I was a man? You just can't figure it out. You're trying to cheat me out of money!"
This time he spoke in a false voice, which was even more unpleasant to hear.
Seeing that Su Fangli ignored him, the guest followed her gaze and looked at her hand.
There is a call going on on the phone screen, the name is:
Officer Lan.
"You called the police? You called the police?" He couldn't control his voice and kept shouting, "How dare you call the police? I, I, I told you to call the police!"
He shouted and grabbed something and threw it at Su Fangli.
"I told you to call the police, I'm going to kill you!"
Su Fangli turned her head to avoid it, and the crystal ball hit the glass behind her with a loud bang.
Large traces of spider webs cracked, and the cursive advertising letters on the glass were crumbling.
——"This is fate."
——"Fate Divination"
"Services: Tarot readings, astrology, pendulum readings, horoscope analysis, fortune-improving advice, marriage predictions, spiritual counseling, psychological counseling, baby naming, and energy items. Please call for inquiries."
"These days, scammers are doing quite a lot of business." He Chenghuan sneered as he looked at the pictures on his comrade's phone.
"Fate Divination, this is it." The comrade looked at the sign downstairs. The third floor, this is where Xiaomei was talking about.
"You can tell at first glance that he's a liar. He might be chased by his victims all day long. Be careful or you might lose both your money and your life." He Chenghuan looked at his comrade who was reporting to his girlfriend and reminded him again.
After sending the message, the comrade sighed, "Hey, my Xiaomei believes in this, especially this fate-telling shop. It's said to be very accurate."
"How smart is it?" He Chenghuan crossed his arms.
"If it weren't for this store, I'd still be single. Xiaomei said it was because of the master's guidance that we met, got to know each other, and fell in love." The comrade said as he answered the phone: "Baby, I'm downstairs at the store. I'll be up there at four o'clock. Don't worry, remember the organization's instructions and complete the task. Ask where your destined wedding shoes are. Yes, remember. Love you, baby~"
He Chenghuan was already defeated by his comrade's greasy voice before he could utter a rebuttal. He stopped trying to persuade him and leaned against the nearby fence.
"Pa-bang-bang"
The windows on the third floor were completely shattered, with large chunks falling down.
He Chenghuan looked over when he heard the sound. On the third floor, a folding chair flew out from a window with purple curtains and only half of the "fate" left on the glass.
"I'm going to kill you—"
Su Fangli dodged the folding chair thrown by the customer. This man was completely crazy, his sunglasses had fallen off, his eyes were red, and he looked very scary.
The third floor was not very spacious, and the man started throwing things around like crazy, blocking her in front of the window.
Hearing the sound of the window shattering completely, she was worried that it would hit someone, so she subconsciously looked back.
"ah--"
"Be careful—"
Passersby downstairs exclaimed.
When Su Fangli felt someone rushing towards her, it was too late. A strong force pushed her back.
Losing her balance, she raised her hand in vain to grab something, but her fingertips just missed the curtains fluttering in the wind.
She fell face down.
He Chenghuan watched the whole process. When he saw someone being pushed down from the window, he rushed over without thinking.
Stretch out your arms and look up to catch it.
Their eyes met.
Bang——
"Fang Li! I finally found you!" A voice started shouting from a distance.
Su Fangli came to her senses and saw an old woman panting as she climbed up the mountain. She shouted, "Go back! The officials are here to collect taxes again! They can't find anything and are going to take Grandma Fang away!"
What?
Su Fangli frowned. Why are they collecting taxes again? She put the bamboo basket on her back on the ground and grabbed the hatchet. "Thank you, Aunt Fang. I'll go back and take a look."
She said this and ran down the mountain clutching the hatchet.
The mountain road was rugged and Su Fangli was not used to it yet. She stumbled and jogged all the way, cutting off the dead branches and leaves blocking the road with her sword.
A few days ago, a stingy man collected taxes and left, so why are there more people here? Su Fangli rushed down the mountain with a serious expression.
There were several people standing in front of her house, two of them were wearing miser's clothes and were bossing people around with arrogant looks on their faces.
Seeing that Grandma Fang was safe, she felt relieved.
Su Fangli straightened her clothes and messy hair, pressed her shoulders, stretched her arm holding the hatchet, and then walked to Grandma Fang and put her behind her.
He whispered, "Don't be afraid, mother."
"Good girl is back." Grandma Fang replied.
"Hey, here they come." A miser said.
Another one continued, "Pay this year's tax grain."
Su Fangli looked at the two people in front of him.
He was dressed like the miser who came to collect taxes a few days ago, but his face was mean and his eyes were wandering, and he didn't look like a good person.
Su Fangli moved her gaze to the tops of the two men's heads.
The white disk slowly appeared and rotated, the stellar trajectories advanced, and the phase lines unfolded accordingly.
"What are you looking at? You're dithering, do you think you can get away with it?"
"If you don't have food, you have to hand over the people! I think you are pretty, young lady, and you can pay for half a year's rent. Hehehe..."
The horoscope is fully displayed, and the fate of the two people in front of him is also clearly visible.
After traveling through time, Su Fangli unexpectedly gained this ability: even without the other person's birthplace and date of birth, she could still see the other person's horoscope.
That is the other party's destiny.
