Xu Gui offered to tell Tang Baozhu's fortune, but after thinking for a moment, Tang Baozhu couldn't think of anything to consult.
She came from a good family, with a comfortable background. Although her father was a scoundrel, she had been loved by her mother since childhood. Even though her grandparents were strict with her, they loved her deep down and cared for her deeply.
In short: Tang Baozhu had money; she had the love of her elders; and as for her career, as the only child of the next generation in the Tang family, and now already involved in the Tang family business, it was clear that she would be the one to take over.
Therefore, lacking nothing, she really didn't know what to consult. "
If I really have to calculate it...
" she typed, "...Then please, Master Xu, calculate my grandparents' health for me."
The Tang family elders were already quite old, over seventy years old; a simple cold could be fatal. And Grandpa Tang had recently caught a fever, looking rather haggard. Tang Baozhu was worried seeing this.
Xu Gui saw her message and nodded, "Okay, then I'll calculate it for you... Hmm, has your grandfather been sick lately?"
Hearing Xu Gui's words, Tang Baozhu was somewhat surprised. Although she already knew of Miss Xu's extraordinary abilities during Lin Xu's incident, experiencing it firsthand again still left her with a subtle sense of astonishment.
"Yes, my grandfather has had a bit of a cold recently," she typed in reply. "That's why I'm a little worried."
Xu Gui nodded slightly and said, "Miss Tang, you don't need to worry about that. Your grandfather is perfectly healthy and can live for at least another ten years… It's your grandmother's health that needs more attention."
The Tang family elders have annual checkups, so if there were any health problems, they would have been detected long ago, without Xu Gui needing to divine them. However, Xu Gui could predict what would happen afterward.
"If I'm not mistaken, your grandmother had a serious illness when she was five years old, which caused her to be weaker than others, making her prone to illness," she said earnestly.
Tang Baozhu was watching the live stream with her grandparents. Hearing Xu Gui's words, Tang Baozhu's grandmother said with some surprise, "This person actually knows that I had a serious illness when I was a child?"
Tang Baozhu looked at her grandmother and couldn't help but ask curiously, "Grandma, did you really have a serious illness when you were five years old?"
Grandma Tang nodded and said, "Actually, it wasn't a serious illness, just a fever. But medical conditions were limited in those days, so the illness got worse and worse... Your great-grandmother said that I fainted several times because of the fever. Although I recovered, my body was completely ruined."
Later, if it weren't for the careful care and attention of the elders in the family, she might have died from the illness long ago.
Tang Baozhu suddenly realized that her grandmother had such a past, but even she didn't know about this past, yet this Miss Xu could tell her so clearly.
"This Miss Xu is really capable," Grandma Tang said happily.
Xu Gui continued, "At the end of this year, your elderly relative will face a hurdle; she will fall seriously ill. If she doesn't make it through, she might not make it..."
Tang Baozhu's heart tightened upon hearing this, and then Xu Gui added, "To help her get through this hurdle, make sure she doesn't go out when it snows."
Grandma Tang also heard Xu Gui's words. She reached out and patted her granddaughter's hand with a reassuring touch—compared to Tang Baozhu's panic, the elderly woman involved seemed much calmer and more composed.
However, while the elderly woman wasn't in a hurry, everyone else was. Grandpa Tang said urgently, "Baozhu, quickly ask this master how to resolve your grandmother's calamity... Or I should send someone to that place right now to invite the master over!"
Tang Baozhu was also anxious and quickly typed a message: "Master, as long as my grandmother doesn't go out during the snow, will she be fine? Or is there anything else we need to do?"
Xu Gui: "Just keep her from going out during that time... Oh, right, don't let any children come to your house during that time."
After hearing this, Grandpa Tang immediately made a decision: "Once the weather gets cold, anyone bringing children is prohibited from coming to our house!"
"You're exaggerating too much," Grandma Tang said reproachfully. "The master said that as long as it snows, it's fine."
But Grandpa Tang stubbornly said, "I don't care!"
In the Tang family, he was the boss, and whatever he said went.
Tang Baozhu repeatedly confirmed with Xu Gui that as long as this was done, her grandmother would be alright this year. Only then did she feel a little relieved, but only slightly. She wouldn't be completely at ease until after winter.
This problem was temporarily resolved.
Xu Gui asked with a smile, "Miss Tang, is there anything else you'd like to have calculated?"
Tang Baozhu thought carefully and typed, "I don't have anything else I'd like to have calculated." She lacked nothing and wanted nothing. Her only worry, her elder's health, had already been answered.
Tang Baozhu was certain she had nothing more to calculate.
However, seeing her comment, Xu Gui said, "In that case, let me tell you another piece of news, Miss Tang."
Xu Gui decided to be generous to his sugar daddy so that the sugar daddy felt his money was well spent and would come back to him next time. Therefore, he had to make the sugar daddy feel at home.
"Miss Tang is lucky; she lacks neither money nor family ties, but…" Xu Gui changed the subject, saying, "Miss Tang, like your mother, will have some bumps in her love life…"
"Miss Tang has a fiancé, right?" she asked.
Tang Baozhu paused for a moment, then typed back, "Yes."
Her fiancé's surname was Huang, and his name was Huang Yun. The Huang family and the Tang family were old friends; they had known each other since childhood, practically childhood sweethearts, and shared a deep bond. They started dating at seventeen, and when they were nineteen, their parents arranged their engagement, officially making them engaged.
Now, Tang Baozhu was twenty-five, and she and Huang Yun had been engaged for six years, dating for eight. In the past two years, their families had begun discussing their marriage.
Tang Baozhu had always been… Both were very confident, after all, she and Huang Yun had known each other since childhood, were childhood sweethearts, and the Tang and Huang families knew each other well. From any perspective, this marriage seemed perfect.
However, upon hearing Xu Gui suddenly mention Huang Yun, Tang Baozhu's eyelids twitched, and a bad premonition suddenly arose in her heart—she didn't think Xu Gui would bring up her fiancé for no reason, especially since Xu Gui had previously mentioned a "difficult love life."
Could Huang Yun have betrayed her? Tang Baozhu couldn't help but speculate.
Xu Gui said, "Your fiancé actually started dating your best friend two years ago, of course, in private."
"..."
Tang Baozhu's expression was somewhat blank. She thought blankly: Xu Gui meant that her fiancé Huang Yun and her good friend Chu Yi had been having an affair behind her back for two years?
What kind of absurd and bizarre thing was this?
Tang Baozhu laughed in anger, but the angrier she got, the calmer her mind became. Therefore, after hearing this news, she did not show too much anger. On the contrary, Grandpa Tang next to her was so angry that he was blowing his beard and glaring.
"That Huang Yun!" the old man gritted his teeth. "I thought he was a good person, but I never expected him to do such a despicable thing!"
He slammed his cane on the ground with each strike, each one filled with rage.
Tang Baozhu calmly said, "Grandpa, there's no need to be angry. This is a good thing. It's better for this to come out now than after Huang Yun and I get married!"
Marriage involves two families, and given the social standing of the Tang and Huang families, once she and Huang Yun are married, many things will be involved. Separating then won't be so simple; the division of property will be a major issue.
So, knowing this now, she should be relieved and happy rather than angry.
"...Even so, I'm still very angry!" the old man said angrily, though his emotions had indeed calmed down.
Xu Gui continued, "According to my calculations, this whole thing between them won't come to light until after you two get married... At that time, your fiancé will tell you that he's been misunderstanding his feelings for you all along. He only saw you as a sister, while your best friend is his true love, the woman he truly loves!"
As Xu Gui said this, his face scrunched up, and he muttered, "Why does this sound so disgusting?"
The viewers in the live stream also felt disgusted.
[What kind of scumbag's lines are these? Treating her like a sister, and you've been in a relationship with her for so many years? I don't believe they haven't kissed or hugged each other all these years. What kind of brother treats his sister like that?]
[Miss Tang is so pitiful, being deceived by such a scumbag couple, this is a double blow, isn't it?] [
What kind of villainous female supporting character script is Miss Tang playing? According to the rules of novel reading, the next development will be that Miss Tang, this villainous female supporting character, will constantly hinder the relationship between the male and female leads until the lovers finally get together and the villainous female supporting character dies a tragic death.]
[Looking at it this way, Xu Gui was really right. Miss Tang and her mother, Ms. Tang Miaoxin, both have had bad luck in love. The men they've encountered are all scumbags. Indeed, the saying "Only money won't betray me" is still gaining more and more value.]
[So, does anyone know who Miss Tang's fiancé and best friend are? I'd like to know who this scumbag and bitch really are!]
[Tang Xu's fiancé's surname is Huang. He's the heir of Wuhe Industry. I heard they've been together since high school, and they've been dating for half a year. As for her best friend, I don't know.]
[Eight years of dating? And in the end, she said she treats him like a sister? Ugh, this guy is really a scumbag!] The viewers in the live
stream were furious, launching a barrage of criticism against Tang Baozhu's fiancé. Tang Baozhu, however, remained remarkably calm.
Why wasn't she calm? The more absurd the future seemed, the higher her chances of correcting her current mistakes, and the more opportunities she had to change them. She should be happy.
"Grandpa, I want to cancel my engagement with Huang Yun!" she said calmly.
Grandpa Tang was already furious. Upon hearing this, he immediately said, "Cancel it! Cancel it immediately! Not only cancel it, but I also want to ask the Huang family what they're trying to do. Do they dislike our Tang family, which is why Huang Yun insulted us like this?"
Tang Baozhu advised, "Grandpa, don't be too angry. Take care of your health… Your granddaughter has been bullied, and we're waiting for you to avenge me. If you ruin your health, who will avenge me? We can't let my mother argue with those people from the Huang family, can we?"
"Your mother?" Grandpa Tang shook his head violently, saying, "No, no, your mother is utterly useless. All she does is spend money."
Grandma Tang chuckled softly, saying gently, "Since you know that, don't ruin your health. Otherwise, the Huang family might take advantage of your poor health and think that our Baozhu has no one to back her up, and they'll bully your granddaughter."
Grandpa Tang roared, "They wouldn't dare!"
It must be said that Tang Baozhu and Grandma Tang knew how to handle Grandpa Tang. As soon as they said that, the old man, who was originally so angry that his head was congested, suddenly calmed down.
"You're right! I can't ruin my health. If I collapse, who will protect our Baozhu?" Grandpa Tang stood up, slamming his cane on the ground. "I'm going to find someone right now. I'll make the Huang family pay!"
Grandpa Tang took out his phone and started making calls.
Grandma Tang looked at his fierce and energetic appearance and smiled, but when she saw Tang Baozhu beside her, her eyes turned to heartache.
"My poor Baozhu..." she sighed, reaching out to hug
her granddaughter. Hearing this, Tang Baozhu's eyes immediately reddened, but she didn't cry, refusing to let the tears fall. She said earnestly, "Grandma, you should be happy for me. Your granddaughter is lucky; she had a benefactor who helped her, which is why she knew about this beforehand. Otherwise, it would have been truly troublesome after Huang Yun and I got married."
Grandma Tang said, "That's true..."
Tang Baozhu continued, "But I'm very curious about why Huang Yun and Chu Yi betrayed me. I believe I treated them well."
One was her fiancé of many years, and the other was her best friend of many years. Tang Baozhu wanted to know if these two had thought of her, their fiancée/best friend, when they betrayed her.
Grandma Tang said gently, "How can humans sometimes understand the thoughts of animals?"—The old woman spoke the most disgusting words in the gentlest voice.
Tang Baozhu chuckled, thinking that if her grandmother met Xu Gui, they would definitely have a lot to talk about, since they had said such similar things.
"Grandma, that's insulting to animals. Some animals have more principles than humans," she sighed. Even her dog knew to wag its tail and fawn over her, but her fiancé and best friend were worse than animals, doing such inhuman things.
A cold glint flashed in Tang Baozhu's eyes. She picked up her phone and sent messages to both of them, inviting them to lunch.
She wasn't one to drag things out; now that she'd discovered the problem, she wanted to resolve it immediately. Fortunately, she and Huang Yun weren't married yet, so she didn't need to play games; she wasn't afraid to confront them directly.
Therefore, she wanted to ask them personally. The two who received her messages
, however, were unaware of what had happened. They readily accepted Tang Baozhu's invitation, until they saw each other in the private room, their expressions showing surprise.
