The beauty's makeup was exquisite, and her posture was alluring.
With one hand gently stroking a waterfall of large waves, and with the other hand clutching a sparkly little bag.
As if she hadn't seen Xu Zhe, she strolled in with a swaying gait.
Xu Zhe: "......"
who is she?
Who is she looking for?
What is she going to do?
"This is where you came from?"
The beautiful woman tilted her head and asked a question behind her.
"Just out of curiosity."
The person behind him followed in and casually closed the door to the private room.
Xu Zhe: "......"
You can run into them all here?
What bad luck!
Behind the beauty, Xu Jinhan crossed her arms and casually glanced at the private room.
Then, his gaze settled on Xu Zhe's face.
"Everyone says Miss Liang's private room isn't open to the public. How come even a beggar from the orphanage is coming in?"
Xu Jinhan bypassed the beauty and approached Xu Zhe:
"It's such an eyesore."
Xu Zhe looked away and continued looking at his phone.
Who can argue with that?
"Jinhan, who is she?"
The beauty glanced down at Xu Zhe, following the direction Xu Jinhan had gone.
His expression was one of disdain.
"Her?" Xu Jinhan scoffed. "If you hadn't asked, I wouldn't have bothered to mention it."
"Just an orphan girl whom my grandfather took home from the welfare home."
The beautiful woman frowned; those who could sit in Liang Shile's private room were not to be underestimated.
However, Xu Jinhan's attitude made it seem as if this person was of lowly status.
"She can be considered an adopted daughter of the Xu family."
The beauty was unsure of what attitude to use, so she tentatively probed.
"Nonsense!"
Hsu Chin-Han walked around the coffee table and sat down on the spacious sofa:
"They didn't even register our household registration; they just found a maid to register it."
"Tell me, what kind of adopted daughter is this?"
There's no legal relationship whatsoever!
Xu Zhe put down his phone, got up, and walked towards the door of the private room.
If you encounter a barking dog, just keep your distance.
As she passed by the beautiful woman, she consciously made way for her.
Xu Zhe reached out and grabbed the doorknob, pulling it open.
The door remained completely still.
She pulled again.
It still won't open.
Xu Zhe looked down at the door bolt, but it wasn't locked from the inside.
Therefore, the force used to control the door and prevent her from opening it was from the outside.
"You can't even listen to this anymore?"
Xu Jinhan's laughter was sinister:
"What I just said, wasn't it all things you already knew?"
"I can't even stand listening to this."
"There's even more you don't know, but whether you listen or not is not up to you!"
Xu Zhe didn't turn around; facing the hard door was better than seeing the ugly face.
"Sister Yani, have you ever heard of the Pixiu's destiny?"
Xu Jinhan suddenly asked the beauty.
Ou Yani shook her head and slowly walked to the sofa to sit down.
"People in the entertainment industry, you probably all believe in fortune telling and feng shui, right?"
Xu Jinhan continued to ask.
Ou Yani nodded: "I believe it."
"People in the entertainment industry will worship fox spirits and invite evil spirits in order to become famous."
“Some even worship evil gods, sacrifice something of their own to harm competitors, or bind their financial backers.”
"Right?"
After Xu Jinhan finished speaking, her gaze seemed to fall unintentionally on Ou Yani's stomach.
Ou Yani immediately straightened her body to prevent the curve of her protruding belly from being too obvious.
Yes, I've heard of it.
Her eyes darted around, and her wavering voice betrayed her guilty conscience.
"That's it, people in the entertainment industry seek fame, while business people seek wealth."
"So my grandfather asked someone to calculate his birth date. Not only could it be the Pixiu of the Xu family, but it could also extend the old man's life by ten years."
As Xu Jinhan spoke, she stared intently at Xu Zhe's back, her eyes filled with malice.
"You mean, she has the destiny of a Pixiu?"
Ou Yani pointed to Xu Zhe, who was standing in front of the door.
Xu Jinhan laughed:
"Isn't that incredible?"
"How could someone with the destiny of a Pixiu end up as an orphan?"
"So these metaphysical things aren't all true."
Upon hearing this, Ou Yani relaxed and leaned back on the sofa.
Xu Jinhan didn't lean back; she sat up straight, her eyes fixed on Xu Zhe.
"If you ask me, a beggar's life is a beggar's life!"
"I was lucky that my grandfather believed the charlatan. That's how he ended up at our house and had a few good days."
Ou Yani, straining her voice, finally dared to speak and state her position:
"Indeed, many sorcerers make money by swindling and deceiving others."
"Well, just consider it supporting an idle person. The Xu family isn't short of food."
She hadn't figured out Xu Zhe's background beforehand, so she didn't want to offend him carelessly.
Now that it's clear, and considering Xu Jinhan's attitude, I'll just go along with her wishes.
"It's a pity my older brother believed it!"
Hsu Chin-Han continued:
"You carried the lucky charm that your grandfather found with you, thinking that would grant you enlightenment and ascension to heaven?"
"Little did they know, everyone's destiny is predetermined. My elder brother's meteoric rise to power is because he was destined to ascend to the heavens!"
After Xu Jinhan finished speaking, a smile finally appeared on her face, and she relaxed and leaned back on the sofa.
Ou Yani suddenly sat up straight, leaning back in her chair.
"What?!"
She cried out in surprise, her nostrils flaring and her eyes widening.
The smirk and disdain on his face were replaced by fear.
"You said she's your older brother, someone you keep close by?!"
Ou Yani grabbed Xu Jinhan's arm, with a slightly forceful pull.
"Don't get agitated."
Xu Jinhan patted her hand, "Take care of yourself."
After speaking, his gaze swept over Ou Yani's abdomen.
Ou Yani immediately released her and placed her hands on her lower abdomen.
This is her lucky charm.
