Chapter 70
Xu Gui said he would tell her fortune, but Tang Baozhu thought about it and couldn't think of anything to tell.
She came from a good family and was well-off. Although her father was a scoundrel, she had her mother's love since she was a child. Even though her grandparents were strict with her, they loved her deep down and cared for her a lot.
In summary: Tang Baozhu has money; she also has the love and care of her elders; as for her career, as the only child of the next generation of the Tang family, and now that she is already involved in the Tang family business, it is clear that Tang Baozhu will be the one to take over the Tang family business.
So, having everything she needs, she really doesn't know what to calculate.
If we really have to calculate it...
"...Then please help me calculate my grandparents' health, Master Xu," she typed. "Right now, my grandparents' health is my biggest concern."
The two elders of the Tang family are already very old, over seventy years old. A simple cold could take their lives. And the old man has also caught a fever recently, making him look quite haggard. Tang Baozhu saw this and was somewhat worried.
Xu Gui saw her message and nodded: "Okay, then I'll do the math for you... Hmm, has your grandfather been sick lately?"
Hearing Xu Gui's words, Tang Baozhu was somewhat surprised. Although she already knew about Miss Xu's extraordinary abilities from Lin Xu's matter, experiencing it firsthand again still left her with a subtle sense of astonishment.
“Yes, my grandfather has had a bit of a cold recently,” she typed in reply. “That’s why I’m a little worried.”
Xu Gui nodded slightly and said, "Miss Tang, you don't need to worry about that. Your grandfather is in good health and can live for at least another ten years... But your grandmother's health might need more attention."
The Tang family elders have annual physical examinations, so if they had any health problems, they would have been found long ago, without Xu Gui needing to divine them. However, Xu Gui could predict what would happen afterward.
“If I’m not mistaken, your grandmother had a serious illness when she was five years old. This made her weaker than others and prone to illness,” she said earnestly.
Tang Baozhu was watching the live stream with her grandparents. When she heard Xu Gui's words, Tang Baozhu's grandmother said with some surprise, "This person actually knows that I had a serious illness when I was a child?"
Tang Baozhu looked at the old woman and couldn't help but ask curiously, "Grandma, did you really have a serious illness when you were five years old?"
Grandma Tang nodded and said, "Actually, it wasn't a serious illness, just a fever. But medical conditions were limited in those days, so the illness got worse and worse... I heard from your great-grandmother that I fainted several times because of the fever. Although I recovered, my body was completely ruined."
If it weren't for the careful care and attention she received from her elders, she might have died from her illness long ago.
Tang Baozhu suddenly realized that her grandmother had such a past when she was a child. However, even she did not know about this past, but this Miss Xu could explain it clearly.
"This Miss Xu is truly capable," Grandma Tang said happily.
Xu Gui continued, "At the end of this year, your elder will face a hurdle; he will fall seriously ill, and if he doesn't make it through, he may pass away..."
Tang Baozhu's heart tightened upon hearing this, and then Xu Gui said, "If you want to get through this, you must not let her go out when it snows."
Grandma Tang also heard Xu Gui's words. She reached out and patted her granddaughter's hand with a reassuring force. Compared to Tang Baozhu's panic, the elderly woman, who was the person involved, seemed more peaceful and calm.
However, while the old lady wasn't in a hurry, everyone else was very anxious. Grandpa Tang said urgently, "Baozhu, you should quickly ask this master how to resolve your grandmother's calamity... or I should send someone right now to that place to invite the master over!"
Tang Baozhu was also anxious and quickly typed a message asking, "Master, as long as my grandmother is kept away from going out in the heavy snow, will she be alright? Or is there anything else we need to do?"
Xu Gui: "Just make sure she doesn't go out during that time... Oh, right, don't let your kids come over during that time."
After hearing this, Grandpa Tang immediately made a decision: "When the weather gets cold, anyone who brings children will be prohibited from coming to our house!"
"You're exaggerating too much," Grandma Tang said reproachfully. "The master said that any weather that snows is fine."
Grandpa Tang stubbornly insisted, "I don't care!"
In the Tang family, he was the most powerful, and whatever he said went.
Tang Baozhu repeatedly confirmed with Xu Gui that as long as she did this, her grandmother would be fine this year. Only then did she feel a little relieved, but only a little. She would probably not be able to feel completely at ease until after this winter.
This issue is temporarily resolved.
Xu Gui asked with a smile, "Is there anything else you'd like to have calculated, Miss Tang?"
Tang Baozhu thought about it carefully and typed: "I have nothing more to calculate." She lacked nothing and wanted nothing. Her only worry, the health of her elders, had already been answered.
Tang Baozhu was certain that she had nothing left to calculate.
However, upon seeing her comment, Xu Gui said, "In that case, I'll tell Miss Tang another piece of news."
Xu Gui decided to be generous to his sugar daddy so that the sugar daddy would feel that his money was well spent and would come back to him next time. Therefore, he had to make the sugar daddy feel at home.
“Miss Tang is very lucky; she lacks neither money nor family ties, but…” Xu Gui changed the subject, saying, “Miss Tang, like your mother, will have some bumps in her love life…”
"Miss Tang has a fiancé, right?" she asked.
Tang Baozhu paused for a moment, then typed back, "Yes."
Her fiancé's surname was Huang, and his name was Huang Yun. The Huang family and the Tang family were old friends. The two had known each other since childhood and were childhood sweethearts. They had a deep affection for each other. They started dating when they were seventeen, and when they were nineteen, their parents arranged their engagement. The two officially became engaged.
Now, Tang Baozhu is twenty-five years old. She and Huang Yun have been engaged for six years and have been dating for eight years. In the past two years, their families have begun to discuss their marriage.
Tang Baozhu had always been very confident in their relationship. After all, she and Huang Yun had known each other since childhood and were childhood sweethearts. The Tang and Huang families knew each other well, so the marriage seemed like a perfect match.
However, when Xu Gui suddenly mentioned Huang Yun, Tang Baozhu's eyelids twitched, and she suddenly had a bad feeling. She didn't think that Xu Gui would bring up her fiancé for no reason, especially since Xu Gui had said earlier that his "love life was bumpy".
Could it be that Huang Yun betrayed her? Tang Baozhu couldn't help but wonder.
Xu Gui said, "Your fiancé was actually dating your best friend two years ago, though it was a private relationship."
"..."
Tang Baozhu looked somewhat bewildered, and she thought blankly: Does Xu Gui mean that her fiancé Huang Yun and her good friend Chu Yi have been having an affair behind her back for the past two years?
What kind of absurd and bizarre thing is this?
Tang Baozhu was amused by the news, but she was the kind of person who became calmer the angrier she got. So when she heard the news, she didn't show too much anger. On the other hand, Grandpa Tang next to her was so angry that he was blowing his beard and glaring.
"That Huang Yun!" the old man gritted his teeth. "I thought he was a good person, but I never expected him to do such a despicable thing?"
The old woman slammed her cane on the ground with a loud thud, each strike filled with anger.
Tang Baozhu calmly said, "Grandpa, there's no need to be angry. This is a good thing. It's better for this to come out now than after Huang Yun and I get married!"
Marriage involves two families, and given the family backgrounds of the Tang and Huang families, once she marries Huang Yun, there will be many more issues to consider. Separating at that point won't be so simple, and the division of property will be a major problem.
So now that she knows this, she should be more relieved and happy than angry.
"...Even so, I'm still very angry!" the old man said angrily, though he had indeed calmed down.
Xu Gui continued, "According to my calculations, this matter between the two of them won't come to light until after you two get married... At that time, your fiancé will tell you that he has been misunderstanding his feelings for you all along. He only sees you as a younger sister, while your best friend is his true love, the woman he truly loves!"
As Xu Gui said this, his face scrunched up, and he muttered, "Why does saying this sound a little disgusting?"
The viewers in the live stream also felt disgusted.
[What kind of scumbag quotes are these? Treating her like a little sister, and you've been dating her for so many years? I don't believe they haven't kissed or hugged each other all these years. What kind of brother treats his sister like this?]
Miss Tang is truly pitiful; being deceived by such a scumbag couple must be a double blow, right?
[What kind of villainous female supporting character script is Miss Tang playing? According to the rules I read in novels, the next development will be that Miss Tang, this villainous female supporting character, will keep hindering the relationship between the male and female leads until the lovers finally get together and the villainous female supporting character dies a tragic death.]
[It seems Xu Gui was right after all. Miss Tang and her mother, Ms. Tang Miaoxin, have both had a rough time in love; the men they've both encountered have all been scumbags. Indeed, the saying "Only money won't betray me" still holds true.]
So, does anyone know who Miss Tang's fiancé and best friend are? I'd love to know just who this scumbag and bitch really are!
Tang Xu's fiancé's surname is Huang, and he is the heir of Wuhe Industry. I heard that the two have been together since high school and have been dating for half a year. As for her best friend, I don't know.
Eight years of dating? And in the end he says he only sees her as a younger sister? Ugh, what a jerk!
The viewers in the live stream were furious and launched a barrage of criticism against Tang Baozhu's fiancé, but Tang Baozhu remained calm.
Why isn't she calm? The more absurd the future seems, the stronger her ability to correct her mistakes now will be, and the more opportunities she will have to change them. She should be happy about that.
"Grandpa, I want to cancel my engagement with Huang Yun!" she said calmly.
Grandpa Tang was already furious, and upon hearing this, he immediately said, "Cancel! Cancel it right now! Not only should it be canceled, but I also want to ask the Huang family what they're trying to do. Do they dislike the Tang family, which is why Huang Yun insulted us like this?"
Tang Baozhu advised, "Grandpa, don't be too angry. Take care of your health... Your granddaughter has been bullied and is waiting for you to avenge me. If you get sick from anger, who will avenge me? I can't let my mother argue with those people from the Huang family, can I?"
"Your mother?" Grandpa Tang shook his head violently and said, "No, no, your mother is useless. All she knows is how to spend money."
Grandma Tang chuckled and said softly, "Since you know this, don't upset yourself. Otherwise, the Huang family might take advantage of your poor health and think that our Baozhu has no one to back her up, and then they'll bully your granddaughter."
Grandpa Tang was furious: "They dare!"
It has to be said that Tang Baozhu and Grandma Tang knew how to handle Old Master Tang. As soon as they said those words, the old man, who was originally so angry that his brain was congested, suddenly calmed down.
“You’re right! I can’t let myself get sick from all this anger. If I collapse, who will protect my precious pearl?” Grandpa Tang stood up and slammed his cane on the ground. “I’m going to find someone right now. I’ll make that Huang family pay!”
Grandpa Tang took out his phone and started making a call.
Grandma Tang smiled slightly as she watched him looking so fierce and energetic, but when she saw Tang Baozhu next to her, her eyes turned to pity.
“My poor Baozhu…” she sighed, reaching out to hug her granddaughter.
Upon hearing her grandmother's words, Tang Baozhu's eyes immediately reddened, but she didn't cry or let the tears fall. Instead, she said earnestly, "Grandma, you should be happy for me. Your granddaughter is lucky to have a benefactor help her, which is why she was able to know about this in advance. Otherwise, this matter would have been really troublesome after Huang Yun and I got married."
Grandma Tang: "That's what they say..."
Tang Baozhu said, "However, I am very curious about why Huang Yun and Chu Yi betrayed me. I believe I have treated them well."
One of these two men was her fiancé of many years, and the other was her good friend of many years. Tang Baozhu really wanted to know if these two men had thought of her, their fiancée/good friend, when they betrayed her.
Grandma Tang said gently, "How can humans sometimes understand the thoughts of animals?"—The old lady used the gentlest voice to say the most disgusting words.
Tang Baozhu was amused, thinking that if her grandmother met Xu Gui, they would definitely have a lot to talk about, since they said such similar things.
"Grandma, you're insulting animals. Some animals have more principles than humans," she sighed. Even her dog knew to wag its tail and fawn over her, but her fiancé and best friend were worse than animals, doing such inhuman things.
A cold glint flashed in Tang Baozhu's eyes. She picked up her phone and sent a message to each of them, inviting them to lunch.
She's not one to drag things out. Once she discovers a problem, she'll address it immediately. Fortunately, she and Huang Yun aren't married yet, so she doesn't need to play games and isn't afraid to confront them directly.
Therefore, she wanted to ask the two of them herself.
The two who received her message were unaware of what had happened. They gladly accepted Tang Baozhu's invitation, but their expressions turned somewhat surprised when they saw each other in the private room.
