Chapter 67 Use all your connections to investigate this person.
Lu Jin's outstretched hand hung awkwardly in mid-air.
The smile froze on his face instantly.
He was a shrewd and sophisticated businessman, but he had never been treated with such blatant indifference.
The other party completely ignored even the most basic handshake etiquette.
He withdrew his hand, and although he was still trying to maintain the smile on his face, it had become somewhat forced and stiff.
This person... is far too arrogant and rude.
Xiao Yizhou, who was standing nearby, took in the whole scene.
He coughed lightly, breaking the awkward silence at the opportune moment: "Ah Jin, Master Shen's time is precious, shall we ask him to take a look at the house first?"
Lu Jin immediately took the opportunity to back down, readjusted her expression, and turned to the side in an inviting gesture: "Yes, yes, Master Shen, Mr. Feng, please come in."
Shen Yuepo seemed oblivious to the subtle change in atmosphere, nodded, and took the lead.
Feng Jin followed half a step behind her, his gaze still taking in the layout of the villa.
Lu Jin watched the two figures walking one after the other, especially Feng Jin's attitude of completely disregarding him as his master, and his lips twitched almost imperceptibly.
He took a deep breath, suppressing his displeasure, exchanged a knowing glance with Xiao Yizhou, and followed.
Shen Yuepo walked into the courtyard of Lu Jin's villa, but did not immediately enter the main house. Instead, she slowly circled around the carefully maintained stone path.
Her gaze swept over the intricately designed artificial hills and streams, the well-arranged flowers, trees and shrubs, and the expansive view of Jade Lake in the distance.
A moment later, Shen Yuepo stopped in front of a large, leafy tree.
“This place has excellent feng shui,” Shen Yuepo finally spoke, his voice cold and clear. “It is backed by mountains and faces water, sheltered from the wind and gathering energy, which will bring wealth and peace to the family.”
"The layout of the courtyard is also quite well-organized, with artificial hills serving as screens, flowing water to draw in the energy, and flowers and plants adding vitality. The overall layout is excellent."
Upon hearing this, Lu Jin's face immediately lit up with joy: "I specially invited the most renowned feng shui master in Hong Kong to design this house. I'm relieved to have your approval!"
His anxiety was greatly relieved. The worries of the past few days vanished.
After all, his experience with the female ghost in the coffin last time had really frightened him. This time, he bought a new house and specially invited Shen Yuepo, just in case he was afraid of attracting some unclean things again.
However, Shen Yuepo changed the subject, pointing to the large tree, "This tree, however, is in an inappropriate location."
Lu Jin's heart tightened, and she quickly asked, "Is there something wrong with this tree?"
“This tree is planted in the Qian position and faces the main gate of the house, so its influence is too strong,” Shen Yuepo explained. “The Qian position belongs to the metal element and governs the career prospects of the male head of the household.”
“A large tree can bully its master,” Shen Yuepo said calmly. “At first, it borrows the life force of the tree, but in the long run, the yin energy will turn against it and damage the fortune of the family head.”
She paused for a moment, then concluded, "I recommend removing it as soon as possible."
Lu Jin immediately said solemnly, "I'll have someone move it tomorrow! No, I'll do it this afternoon!"
Since it concerned his own fortune, he dared not be negligent.
Shen Yuepo nodded slightly, then briefly walked around the rest of the courtyard to confirm there were no other major problems, before saying:
"The layout of the house is acceptable and does not require major renovations. Just make sure to keep the airflow smooth and avoid clutter."
After the survey was completed, Lu Jin warmly invited them to stay: "Master Shen, Mr. Feng, thank you both for making this trip!"
He glanced at his watch. "It's already noon. Why don't I treat you two to the best private restaurant in town..."
Shen Yuepo refused outright: "No need, I have other things to do."
Her tone was flat, without the slightest hint of politeness.
Just now, Jiang Yubai sent her a message, asking her to go look at houses when she had time.
Lu Jin opened her mouth, but in the end could only awkwardly withdraw her hand that had been trying to stop her.
He finally understood that Master Shen's way of doing things was truly unconventional.
Shen Yuepo merely nodded slightly to Xiao Yizhou before turning and leaving with Feng Jin.
Feng Jin followed beside her, the two of them one in front and one behind, their auras complementing each other.
Watching the black sedan disappear at the end of the tree-lined road in the villa area, Lu Jin breathed a long sigh of relief.
He turned to look at Xiao Yizhou, who had been silent beside him, a playful smile on his face, and nudged him with his elbow:
"Hey, Yizhou, did you see that?"
Lu Jin's tone carried a hint of sarcasm, "Your rival in love... tsk, not simple at all."
He recalled Feng Jin's arrogant disregard for everything and his unfathomable aura, and felt that he was no ordinary person.
The smile on Xiao Yizhou's face had completely vanished, replaced by a deep, somber expression.
He stared in the direction the car had disappeared, his eyes narrowing slightly behind his glasses.
Hearing Lu Jin's words, Xiao Yizhou slowly withdrew his gaze and looked at Lu Jin: "Yes, it's not simple."
His voice was low and cold, carrying a sense of suppressed iciness, "So, Lu Jin, do me a favor."
"Use all your connections to investigate this person."
Lu Jin's Adam's apple bobbed as she tentatively asked, "Is our young master Xiao really serious?"
Xiao Yizhou didn't answer directly. He simply looked in the direction Shen Yuepo had just left, and said, "She's different."
