The driver's attitude made Meng Acai furious. In the past, she would have asked her daughter to change the driver.
But she had just had a falling out with her daughter, so how could she go back? She was still terrified of the lightning in the yard. What if she went in and it struck her again? She was already old, and if she got struck by lightning again, she might die.
If you ask her to take a taxi, she doesn't know how to call one.
Meng Acai could only call her grandson Gao Dongjie and ask him to make the arrangements.
Gao Dongjie was in a very good mood because he had cooperated with Mr. Tan to trick his aunt. Suddenly, he received a call from his grandmother. He remembered that his grandmother should be at his aunt's place and asked casually, "Aren't you at her place? She has several drivers at home."
Gao Dongjie was even more upset when this came up. His aunt had so many luxury cars, yet she didn't give him a few. Mr. Tan was truly generous, not only gifting him a house downtown but also two million. Gao Dongjie simply invested the money in several profitable businesses he thought he could secure, hoping to earn dividends and become a major shareholder.
After having that prophetic dream, he was full of confidence in his future.
Unfortunately, the aunt in the dream hid a secret from him and refused to take him with her to teach him. Otherwise, he could have known more business secrets and used them to make more money.
[Your aunt found out what we did, and she doesn't even recognize me.]
Gao Dongjie was so frightened by this sentence that he almost dropped his phone. It had only been a short time, and his aunt had already found out. How would she retaliate against their family?
Gao Dongjie felt a surge of fear in his heart. He didn't care about what was going on at hand and drove over to pick up his grandmother.
Gao Dongjie was startled when he saw his grandmother's appearance. His voice rose with excitement and joy, "Did she hit you?"
If grandma was really beaten, he could publicize it in the circle at that time.
Meng Acai shrank her neck and said, "Bad luck. I was struck by lightning and fell to the ground."
"...Oh." Gao Dongjie's tone was clearly disappointed. "It was broad daylight and there was no thunder or rain, so how could he be struck by lightning?"
He suddenly remembered the legendary Thunder God who loved to strike people down. Could it be him who did it?
Gao Dongjie panicked. Grandma had just buried some dirty things in the house and gotten struck by lightning, so what about him? He could only console himself by thinking he hadn't been struck yet, so it shouldn't be a big deal.
Meng Acai was still chattering over there, "What kind of master are you looking for? Is he a scammer? How did he get discovered so quickly?"
Gao Dongjie took a deep breath, his tone revealing annoyance, "Maybe it was because of you going there today that my aunt discovered the truth."
Meng Acai's eyes widened. "I did all this for you! Otherwise, I would have lived a good life. Why would I do all this unnecessary work?"
Meng Acai was already feeling a little regretful, and seeing her grandson's attitude, she regretted it even more.
Gao Dongjie had no choice but to say nice things to calm her down. Meng Acai soon realized that this didn't seem like the way home. "Where are we going? To the hospital?"
She had just been struck by lightning and was in pain all over her body. She had to go to the hospital for a full-body check-up.
"No, we're going to meet a big boss who can help us," Gao Dongjie added. "If we can please him, he might even arrange a job and a house for my cousin. But you have to answer everything he asks you."
When she heard that it would be good for her grandson, Meng Acai felt that she could still bear the pain in her body.
Cui Xixia also bought a house for her eldest brother's family. However, the Cui family complained that the house wasn't in a good enough location or large enough, and they always had a problem with Cui Xixia. In their opinion, since Cui Xixia was so wealthy, she should at least give them a large flat in the city center.
An hour later, Gao Dongjie met Mr. Tan as he wished.
Mr. Tan had just returned from a visit to the hospital with Stephen, and he was in a very good mood. He felt the order was a sure thing. His biggest competitor, Cui Xixia, had put Stephen in the hospital, effectively eliminating him.
When he went to see Mr. Stephen just now, he gave him a work of Qi Baishi. The other party was very happy and looked at him as if he were a relative.
Thanks to Gao Dongjie, he learned that Stephen liked Qi Baishi.
"Why are you here? What's going on?" He put on a pleasant expression, waiting to get more information out of Gao Dongjie. Compared to the benefits he was about to receive, the house he gave him was completely worth it.
Gao Dongjie lowered his head and said, "My aunt already knows."
Mr. Tan's expression froze. This was too fast.
Looking at Gao Dongjie's reaction... he felt that someone as smart as Cui Xixia had probably guessed it.
So what if she guessed it? Couldn't she still turn the tables? As long as he got the order, even if the news got out to the rest of the circle, everyone would just praise him for his strong skills and ability.
Mr. Tan said in a calm tone: "I understand."
Gao Dongjie said, "I'm worried that my aunt will take action against my family. What if she also looks for other metaphysical masters?"
He hasn't risen to become a big boss yet, so how can he compete with his aunt?
If the other party had only discovered a talisman, it would have been fine. However, Gao Dongjie had asked the master of metaphysics to restore his luck, fearing that his aunt would find out.
Mr. Tan was very calm. "We live in a society ruled by law now. She wouldn't dare do anything to you."
If Cui Xixia really took action, Mr. Tan would be very happy instead, because he would have the opportunity to use it to make her suffer.
Gao Dongjie listened to his casual words, feeling extremely annoyed. Mr. Tan had already taken advantage of the situation and didn't need him anymore. He could abandon him at any time. When he became rich, he would make him pay the price.
