Feng Congqian also looked up, his face showing a hint of curiosity.
Nan Yuanman scratched her cheek and then her hair, trying to find the right words: "Yes... there is a little bit of a connection."
Meng Qingwan was genuinely curious now: "Oh? Tell me what the relationship is."
Nan Yuanman looked at the six copper coins on the table and tried to interpret the divination in a way that Meng Qingwan could understand: "Aunt Qingwan has a weak connection with her parents. Her mother died early, her father remarried, and her relationship with her father's relatives is not close, even quite bad, right?"
"Aside from the fact that your parents' relationship was not very good, Aunt Qingwan's love and marriage are not very good either. She should have had a relationship before, but you broke up because of the man. And your current marriage is not your true love. Your true love should appear when you are forty years old."
At this point, Nan Yuanman subconsciously glanced at Feng Congqian, and Feng Xingchi also looked at him and raised an eyebrow.
Meng Qingwan was stunned, her eyes wide as she looked at the two men opposite her: "You really didn't mention me to Yuanman?"
Feng Congqian and Feng Xingchi shook their heads simultaneously.
Meng Qingwan looked at Nan Yuanman with surprise. Could fortune telling really be so accurate? It even knew about her past relationship.
Nan Yuanman blinked and asked, "Do you want to continue listening?"
Meng Qingwan nodded: "Yes!"
Looking at the divination results, Nan Yuanman continued, "Although your destined partner's family background is not as good as yours, he has a gentle personality and complements you. Finally, Aunt Qingwan's marriage will be turbulent this year, and she is very likely to encounter romantic troubles and be plotted against by villains."
Nan Yuanman fiddled with the copper coins: "The villains come from those around you, so Aunt Qingwan should be extra careful with her relatives and friends this year, otherwise she will be swindled out of a lot of money, and her current interpersonal relationships will also be affected."
"As for the 'peach blossom calamity,' it depends on Auntie herself. If she can avoid it, she will. If she can't, she will be deceived in heart, body, and money, and it will also have an impact on her health."
"However, apart from her tumultuous love life, Aunt Qingwan will never lack money in her life, and she'll make money no matter what business she does!"
After she finished speaking, she added, "This was interpreted from the divination, I didn't just make it up!"
Meng Qingwan chuckled, reaching out to vigorously rub Nan Yuanman's little head, making her sway from side to side: "Auntie knows, Auntie doesn't blame you."
Anyway, her relationship with Feng Congqian was never a normal one, and now that Yuanman is involved, it's normal for their marriage to be somewhat unstable, given Feng Congqian's personality.
She was already mentally prepared after returning to China.
But...
"Little Perfection, how do we resolve this love tribulation?" Meng Qingwan asked earnestly.
“Auntie’s love trouble comes from rekindling old feelings with an ex. Just be careful not to be bewitched by him!” Nan Yuanman said, then took out a talisman from her small handbag: “If you’re worried, you can buy a protective amulet to ensure your safety.”
Old friends...
Meng Qingwan's heart stirred slightly, and she nodded: "Okay, I understand."
She reached over her bag from the other side of the sofa, pulled out a black card, and generously handed it to Nan Yuanman: "Here, this is for the divination fee and a small gift! There's no limit, Yuanman, feel free to swipe!"
Nan Yuanman subconsciously looked at Feng Congqian, who nodded slightly, indicating that she should accept it. She happily took it, saying, "Thank you, Aunt Qingwan. If you have any friends who also want their fortunes told, you can contact me. I can give you a 20% discount!"
"Okay, then I'll thank our little Yuanman in advance~" Meng Qingwan smiled and patted her cheek.
-
As night deepened, Nan Yuanman, exhausted from a long day of travel, went to bed early.
As Feng Congqian came out of Nan Yuanman's room, he immediately saw Meng Qingwan standing in the corridor, her hands folded on the railing, staring blankly down below.
Meng Qingwan turned around at the sound of her voice and asked in a low voice, "Shall we chat?"
Feng Congqian: "Go to the study."
Inside the study.
After Feng Congqian closed the door, Meng Qingwan went straight to the point and said, "Let's get a divorce."
Feng Congqian remained calm, showing no surprise. His marriage to Meng Qingwan was a transaction, and neither of them crossed any boundaries during the marriage. If it weren't for Nan Yuanman, he would have continued to treat her with respect.
But now that Nan Yuanman has unexpectedly appeared, even if she doesn't mention it, Feng Congqian will.
He nodded slightly and answered readily, "Okay, thank you for your hard work these past three years. The Meng family has been bothering you again recently. Do you need my help?"
"No need, they're just a few small fry, why would they need you? Their current heir is a good-for-nothing, I can handle them all by myself." Meng Qingwan sneered, "They still think I'm the same person I used to be, someone they can easily manipulate."
“Oh, right.” Meng Qingwan’s eyes gleamed mischievously. “I don’t plan to take the child with me in the divorce. As long as the child is in the Feng family, they won’t dare to mess with me.”
Feng Congqian chuckled: "Whatever you say."
“However, I also have a request: don’t let the children know about our divorce for now. Yuanyuan is sensitive and thoughtful, and I’m afraid she’ll overthink things.” Feng Congqian said, “Don’t worry, I will give you the compensation you deserve and won’t let you suffer any losses.”
"Besides that, I also need your help to deal with some gossipy people and those who don't know their place."
There are many powerful and influential people in the capital. He can guarantee that they won't talk about it much in front of him, but he can't guarantee that they won't say anything to Nan Yuanman when he's not around.
He brought Nan Yuanman to the capital to enjoy a life of comfort, not to suffer.
Meng Qingwan nodded readily: "No problem."
Gossip is something humans are born with, especially the gossip of the Feng family. She could already foresee what those people would say after they learned of Nan Yuanman's existence, so she could understand Feng Congqian's concerns.
She added, "Even if you don't say anything, I will protect Yuanman."
"You're so lucky! At your age, you've managed to get such a lovely daughter. Why don't I have one?" Meng Qingwan said, feeling both envious and jealous.
Over the years, she has traveled to many foreign battlefields and wanted to adopt a girl, but unfortunately, she has never been able to find one she liked.
As for giving birth herself... forget it. She was born to enjoy life, and she doesn't want to suffer the pain of childbirth.
Feng Congqian raised an eyebrow slightly, and relaxed a lot: "You want to have a daughter with your true love after you meet him."
Meng Qingwan rolled her eyes: "Forget it, men don't deserve me to have their children."
Feng Congqian smiled and said, "Since you're my friend, you'd better take the things that Yuanman calculated for you today to heart."
Meng Qingwan: "Don't worry."
"I'm not the kind of person who's swayed by past emotions. As for backstabbers... I'll be on guard."
After they finished their conversation, Meng Qingwan left the study and went back to her room to sleep.
Yes, after so many years of marriage, she and Feng Congqian had never shared a bed.
The main problem is that Feng Congqian isn't her type. At most, they can only be friends. As for becoming a real couple... well, forget it.
She fears that marrying someone who can barely get a sparring match will drive her to her death sooner or later; she's not ready to live any longer!
-
News of Feng Congqian and Nan Yuanman's arrival in the capital soon spread, and many people in the capital were curious about Meng Qingwan's reaction as Feng's wife.
Among the wealthy families in Beijing, the Meng family reacted the most strongly.
Meng Ruixiang, the patriarch of the Meng family, had a gloomy face and slammed his fist on the table several times: "The Feng family is really going too far! When they married Qingwan, they made all sorts of promises, saying they would treat her well for the rest of their lives! I never expected that they would produce an illegitimate daughter!"
Madam Meng, Chen Siyun, sat beside him, gently patting his back to soothe him, and said reproachfully, "It's not her fault. It's just that Qingwan's belly is not cooperating. She's been married for so many years and hasn't been able to conceive a child. She always ends up raising outsiders."
Chen Siyun's eyes flickered slightly, and she asked in a low voice, "Hey, honey, do you think it's possible that Qingwan can't have children?"
Meng Ruixiang hesitated, "It shouldn't be, right? Her previous medical checkups were all healthy, and that kid Feng Congqian was in a coma for three years..."
“No one said you can’t have a baby if you’re in a coma! You can do IVF! Qingwan isn’t pregnant, so she can’t have children!” Chen Siyun couldn’t help but say, “Now that Feng Congqian has a biological daughter, he wouldn’t… want to divorce Qingwan, would he?”
"After all, the biological daughter's mother hasn't shown up yet! Shouldn't he at least give her a proper status?"
Meng Ruixiang's face darkened: "He dares!"
Chen Siyun rolled her eyes inwardly. Feng Congqian dared to kill his own brother! What's so hard about a divorce? Does he think the Meng family of today is the same as the Meng family of the past?
Meng Ruixiang was also unsure. After pondering for a moment with a serious face, he looked at Chen Siyun and said, "Take Linlin to their house tomorrow to see what kind of person that illegitimate daughter is. If necessary, find a way to make her estranged from Feng Congqian."
