“Mom, where are you bringing me?” Huo Mian was a little surprised.
“You’ll know when we get there. Just get ready.”
Mrs. Qin mysteriously hurried her up…
The only thing Huo Mian could do was to listen to her mother-in-law, so she immediately got ready and changed.
She looked at the weather forecast, saw that it wasn’t especially cold, so she didn’t wear a down jacket.
She chose a light blue woolen coat…
Inside, she wore a white knitted sweater.
The combination lit up everyone’s eyes…
Huo Mian got changed, but before she could even eat breakfast, Mrs. Qin dragged her onto the black Bentley.
The latter didn’t know how to drive, so her chauffeurs drove her everywhere.
When Huo Mian got on the car, Mrs. Qin handed her some breakfast pastries and a cup of soy milk.
“Eat it while it’s hot, not having breakfast is bad for your stomach.”
“Thanks, Mom.”
Huo Mian slowly took the breakfast from her hands. To be truthful, she never thought a day like this would happen.
Not only did Qin Chu’s mother accept her, but she was also thoughtful enough to prepare breakfast for her. It was completely out of Huo Mian’s expectations.
On the way there, Huo Mian quietly ate her breakfast and silently looked at the scenery outside the window.
At that moment, a WeChat notification popped up on her phone.
“Honey, are you up?”
“Yep.”
“Come have lunch at the company in a bit,” Qin Chu arrogantly demanded her.
“I’m afraid I won’t be able to, Mom’s here.”
“Whose mom?” Qin Chu was a little confused.
“Your mom,” Huo Mian didn’t dare to send a voice message, so she carefully typed.
“What’s she doing?”
“I have no idea, she said that she’s taking me somewhere.”
“Go, Mom’s generous. If you’re going shopping, scam her.”
“Pfff… Are you really her son?” Huo Mian smiled.
Qin Chu didn’t reply.
It took the car about an hour to drive far out of the city.
Finally, they got off the highway and drove into a small village.
“Mom, where are we going?” unable to hold back her curiosity, Huo Mian asked again.
Holding her hand, Madam Qin mysteriously said, “There’s a fortune teller here. He’s blind but accurate. A lot of government officials come here, but he only works in the mornings. So, we had to come as soon as possible.”
“Uh… A fortune teller.”
Huo Mian felt a little embarrassed because to tell the truth, she didn’t really believe in these things.
She always thought that it was a hoax and something that only old people would believe. However, her mother-in-law was doing it with good intentions in mind, so it wouldn’t be right for her to turn her mom down.
So, she had no choice but to follow Mrs. Qin into a farmhouse, and she was immediately surprised by what she saw.
The entire courtyard was filled with people who looked to be partying…
Mrs. Qin walked up and spoke to a middle-aged lady at the door, “We made an appointment with Master Zhao yesterday.”
“Yes, wait here for a moment. You can go in as soon as the people inside come out.”
Madam Qin nodded in satisfaction…
Then, she held Huo Mian’s hand and said, “Don’t worry, Child. I’m not asking him to see your marriage with Chu. You’re married, after all. I want to see when you’ll be able to have kids. He’s too accurate, you should listen to what he has to say.”
Huo Mian nodded…
“When you go in, answer whatever the master asks of you. Don’t be scared and tell him the truth.” Mrs. Qin gave her instructions.
Huo Mian nodded again…
About ten minutes later, the middle-aged woman came out and said, “You can go in now.”
“Alright.”
Mrs. Qin and Huo Mian headed in…
But, the middle-aged woman stopped them, “Only the one getting their fortune read can go in.”
“Alright, I’ll be waiting outside.”
Mrs. Qin anxiously waited outside with her luxury bag in hand…
Truth be told, Huo Mian had never gotten her fortune told. She always thought of fortune tellers as con-artists.
So, she felt a little weird…
She entered the inner room and saw an old man on the sofa.
The old man was about sixty years old with whitening hair. She heard from her mother-in-law that he was blind.
“Hello there, Elder. I’m here to get my fortune read.” Huo Mian politely bowed down to the old man.
