A week later, the onlookers were in an uproar again.
"Wow! The master's first divination after returning was an explosive one. I'm so curious about the story behind it."
"Young man, can't you tell the difference between a man and a woman? What have you been doing for the past three months?"
"Don't doubt the young man's taste. I accidentally discovered while scrolling through my phone that some men are even more beautiful than women. Their faces, their waists, wow."
Gao Xinghong was struck dumb, his eyes wide open like copper bells. "Master, you're joking. This isn't funny at all."
Lin Xi said, word by word, "If this birth date and time belonged to a woman, she would have died long ago."
"There are only two possibilities: either you talked to a female ghost for three months, or you talked to a man dressed as a woman for three months. Which one would you rather believe?"
Please select.
Gao Xinghong's face turned pale with fright. "No, Xin Xin isn't a female ghost..."
His girlfriend of three whole months couldn't possibly be a ghost; there was only one possibility left.
Xin Xin is a boy! You lied to him!!
He's a real man, yet he's been with another man for three months! Ugh!!!
Gao Xinghong clutched his head and screamed, unable to believe it. "Impossible! Xin Xin is beautiful and cute, with a gentle and kind personality. How could she be a boy?!"
He clutched the red paper, his hands trembling uncontrollably. "Master, please check again to make sure there's no mistake..."
Lin Xi said calmly, "Judging from your birth charts, you and she met through a blind date. What kind of matchmaker is so unethical as to introduce a man to you as a woman?"
Gao Xinghong's heart sank instantly.
The master could tell at a glance that the two met through a blind date, which proved that their birth dates and times were correct and that the master's skills were not in question.
The problem is with Xin Xin, the person he's loved for three months.
Gao Xinghong is 32 years old and a programmer with thinning hair.
He has been busy with work since graduating from university. He is rather introverted, doesn't like to communicate with others, and has never been in a relationship.
The parents were extremely anxious, urging him to get married every day and arranging blind dates for him.
"Xinghong, you're not getting any younger. You'll be forty in a few years. You don't have a wife or children. You're such a failure as a person."
"Look at your classmates and friends, they've already had three children, and their kids are all in elementary school. You're out fooling around all day, not doing anything productive! You're driving me crazy! You've completely disgraced the Gao family!!"
"Other people come home to a meal cooked by their wives, but you, a single dog, can only lie on a cold, hard bed! Eating takeout made with gutter oil! Eating zombie meat that's been frozen for decades! Sleeping under-the-table cotton blankets!!"
"Your aunt has arranged a blind date for you. You have to go tomorrow. If you don't go, don't call me Dad anymore!"
Gao Xinghong couldn't stand his parents' nagging, so he went on a blind date with a belly full of anger.
The moment he saw the woman, all his anger vanished.
It was a pure and charming face, with eyebrows like willow leaves, lips like red cherries, and eyes like shimmering autumn water. A gentle breeze stirred her hair, adding to her lively charm.
She tilted her head back, smiled faintly, revealing two adorable dimples, like an unattainable campus goddess from her school days, or a white moonlight hidden deep in her heart.
No man can resist a girl like that, and Gao Xinghong is no exception.
He was captivated at first sight.
Gao Xinghong wiped the sweat from his palms and nervously extended his hand. "Hello, my name is Gao Xinghong."
She pointed to her throat and smiled sheepishly.
The matchmaker auntie introduced with a smile, "Xinghong, her name is Xinxin. She had a fever when she was little, which damaged her throat, so she can't speak. But that's not a problem at all. Character comes first."
"Your aunt has done her research. His character and family background are fine. Xin Xin is well-behaved, sensible, quiet, and doesn't talk much. Oh my! She's a perfect match for you..."
Gao Xinghong loved it even more.
His aunt said a lot, but he remembered one thing: her name was Xin Xin.
Hehe, Xin Xin, what a lovely name.
The two became familiar with each other over time. Although Xin Xin couldn't speak, she was gentle and considerate.
Sending him hot water, towels, and his favorite tea eggs—these actions demonstrate his deep affection.
Every date was very sweet, and the two gradually tried things that couples do, such as holding hands, hugging, and watching movies.
Gao Xinghong fell deeper and deeper into love, feeling that he had met his true love and that his 32 years of being single had been especially worthwhile.
My aunt is a really good person. I'll invite her to sit at the head table at my wedding and give her a generous red envelope.
The two naturally progressed to the point of discussing marriage, but Xin Xin always looked scared.
Gao Xinghong thought she was worried about life after marriage, so he tried his best to soothe her emotions.
"Xin Xin, I love you. I can't live without her. Will you marry me?"
Xin Xin nodded in agreement, and the marriage was settled.
Gao Xinghong happily went to the master to calculate an auspicious day, but he never expected the truth to be like this.
He muttered to himself in disbelief, "Xin Xin isn't talking because of him..."
Qian Fugui patted him on the shoulder, "Of course it's because you gave yourself away as soon as you opened your mouth."
Gao Xinghong's heart, which had been hanging in suspense, finally died.
Holy crap! The person he'd been in love with for three months turned out to be a guy!
Qian Fugui comforted him, "Brother, calm down. The master is not wrong. Take my advice and accept the facts. Break up with what you should break up with and cut ties with what you should cut ties with."
Gao Xinghong brushed his hand away, his voice trembling, "Don't touch me, don't touch me!"
Recalling what the two had done over the past three months, Gao Xinghong almost fainted, managing to squeeze out three words, "Yu! Wen! Xin!!"
Qian Fugui was taken aback. "Huh? Yu Wenxin, that's a very familiar name."
Ji Heng asked, "Fatty, did you ever talk to her?"
Qian Fugui's face instantly darkened. "Get out! I didn't do it, don't spread rumors."
