Chapter 142 City Lord, You Are in for a Great Calamity
Tang Changjun paused for a moment. Although he didn't know why, the car was already preparing to turn left, so he quickly instructed his secretary, "Go straight! Don't turn!"
The secretary was a little puzzled. "Going straight would be a long detour, adding ten minutes to the time, and we might miss the meeting."
Nanshan's voice rang out again, "City Lord, you are facing a great calamity. Is your life more important, or is the meeting more important? The choice is yours."
After saying that, Nanshan hung up the phone. Tang Changjun had been feeling uneasy and anxious since he left the house today. Upon hearing what Nanshan said, he immediately told his secretary, "Go straight, go straight right now!"
The secretary said nothing more and was about to turn with the turn signal on, but I had no choice but to turn it off and drive straight ahead.
Just then, a truck came straight at them from the left, seemingly out of control, and swept past them just a meter away. At the same time, another truck came from the opposite direction, and the two trucks collided violently with a loud bang.
If they hadn't changed direction, their vehicle would have been squeezed into a meat sandwich by the two trucks!
Both Tang Changjun and his secretary broke out in a cold sweat, their entire bodies trembling uncontrollably. It took them a while to calm down.
"Are you still able to drive? Why don't you pull over for a bit?"
The secretary was deathly pale, completely bloodless. She managed to drive for a short while, found a parking space, and stopped to catch her breath.
Without saying a word, Tang Changjun called Nanshan back.
"Brother Nanshan, I'm so grateful to you just now. You're truly amazing. How did you know about this?"
It turned out that Yu Xiaoluo woke up early in the morning and frowned when she saw the message sent by Xiaoxianxian. It said that Shangguan Peiyu was instructed by someone to harm the city lord. She did not know who the city lord was, so she called Nanshan.
Nanshan then said that there were three city lords in Kangba City: one chief city lord and two deputy city lords.
So Yu Xiaolu searched for photos of the three city lords online and suddenly discovered that the main city lord, Tang Changjun, was facing an ominous disaster, and it was very likely that he would be discovered soon.
So he immediately told Nanshan to inform Tang Changjun. Fortunately, the notification was timely, allowing Tang Changjun and his secretary to escape this calamity.
They were just seconds away from being killed by Shangguan Peiyu.
"It was Yu Xiaoluo from the Yu Family Metaphysics Academy who calculated it. She just informed me that you will face a major calamity and told me to change lanes immediately."
Her? Because Yu Xiaoluo has become so famous recently, Lord Tang knows about her to some extent.
He had no interest in attending any meetings now, so he asked his secretary to cancel one and said to Nanshan, "I would like to see Miss Yu. Please arrange it now, immediately."
Nanshan immediately called Yu Xiaoluo.
Yu Xiaoluo also knew that Shangguan Peiyu now had someone in power helping her, and that it wasn't Nanshan's decision to drive away those who were protesting yesterday.
He was only doing this because he was under pressure from his superiors. The department leaders had ordered them to disperse the people surrounding Shangguan Peiyu. Therefore, Shangguan Peiyu had powerful backers.
She's quick to build connections, which is likely due to the network she's built up beforehand.
Therefore, having someone like Lord Tang, who is both big and small, to help them would be a great thing.
Moreover, she also wanted to know who dared to join forces with Shangguan Peiyu to harm the city lord. In addition, one of the deputy city lords had a gloomy face, and it was possible that he was involved. So she immediately agreed.
They arranged to meet at a teahouse. Tang Changjun was a little surprised to see that Yu Xiaoluo was even younger, more innocent, and more naive than he had heard. However, he did not look down on her because of her young age.
He extended his hand and said respectfully to Yu Xiaoluo, "Master Yu, I have long admired your name."
After a few polite words, he got straight to the point, "Master Yu, Captain Nan said it was you who made us change our route?"
Yu Xiaoluo nodded. "I found out about this by accident. Someone wants to harm you."
So she told him everything without hiding anything.
"You mean, this was most likely done by Shangguan Peiyu?"
"Well, it's just a suspicion; there's no evidence yet. By the way, Lord Tang, do you know if any of your top leaders live in Jiangcheng Garden?"
City Lord Tang was taken aback for a moment, "Vice City Lord Mo Qunfei and I both live in Jiangcheng Garden."
Yu Xiaoluo probably understood, "Be careful of this person."
Even Lord Tang didn't quite believe it. "You mean Mo Qunfei wants to harm me? Impossible, that's impossible. I promoted him myself, he has always been very respectful to me, and he often comes to my house for meals. We are as close as brothers."
Yu Xiaolu gave him a meaningful look. The dark aura on his forehead had not dissipated, and she remained silent.
"Lord Tang, your tribulation is not over yet. They didn't achieve their goal this time, but there will be a next time."
"Is there something wrong with the feng shui of my house?" Lord Tang frowned deeply. "Master Yu, could you please come to my house and take a look at the feng shui?"
Yu Xiaoluo nodded.
So they went together to Lord Tang's house.
Lord Tang's wife was at home and warmly received them.
Yu Xiaoluo smiled and called her "Auntie." When she learned that Tang City Lord's wife had come to see the feng shui, she was very surprised but did not object.
Their home's feng shui layout is designed to attract wealth and promote career advancement; it's very ingenious and must have been arranged by a highly skilled feng shui master.
Nothing seemed amiss in the living room or bedroom until Yu Xiaoluo saw the painting of a fierce tiger hanging in the study, and her eyes narrowed slightly.
"Did you hang this yourself?"
Lord Tang nodded. "A friend gave it to me a couple of days ago. What's wrong, Master Yu? Is there something wrong with this painting?"
"This tiger looks very majestic and imposing. It would be fine to hang it in a public place or in an authoritative institution, as it could project authority. However, it is not suitable to put this painting in the home."
"Uh, what do you mean?"
Yu Xiaoluo hadn't done feng shui for a long time, so this was a return to her old profession. She explained in detail, "In feng shui, everything has 'qi', but qi, like people, can be good or bad. Therefore, qi can also be auspicious or inauspicious, and strong or weak."
"Tigers are very majestic and fierce animals. Their aura is very strong and powerful, carrying a menacing energy. The home environment should be warm and peaceful. If a picture of a tiger is hung, it can easily make family members tense and irritable, and it is also very easy for them to quarrel."
Mrs. Tang listened with great interest, feeling that this young girl really knew a lot. Hearing this, she couldn't help but say in surprise, "You know what, Master, yesterday Old Tang and I had a fight for no reason. We haven't fought for many years. My son also had a fight with me over a cell phone."
