The heavenly stems and earthly branches, the yin and yang and the five elements, as well as the seasons and directions, are all closely related. To ordinary people, these might seem somewhat mysterious, but for Xiao Yufan, a master of Feng Shui, it was merely child’s play.
By analyzing the positions of the wooden pillars, Xiao Yufan roughly figured out a way to break the formation. However, one thing puzzled him greatly—the positioning and elemental attributes of these pillars were surprisingly similar to his own birth chart.
Even Xiao Yufan himself wasn’t entirely clear about his birth details, yet whoever had set up this Feng Shui formation was able to lock onto his fortune, indicating that this person must have known his birth chart quite well. There was only one possibility now.
“Someone from the Situ family has started moving in the shadows…”
A thought flashed through his mind, and Xiao Yufan’s expression turned slightly cold. A sinister smile curled the corners of his mouth. How could someone from the Capital Club know him so thoroughly? There must be someone from the Situ family secretly manipulating things.
Yet Xiao Yufan had no time to dwell on this. From the moment he moved the first wooden pillar, the Feng Shui formation had begun to lose its energy…
Although this loss of power no longer significantly affected Xiao Yufan, he certainly wouldn’t shift this danger onto Lan Tianyuan. Could Xiao Yufan really be so ‘kind’?
Referring to the birth chart left behind by Butler Fang, Xiao Yufan quickly adjusted the corresponding positions of the wooden pillars. With smooth, fluid movements, the scattered energy gradually converged again. Finally, a completely new formation silently took shape, and the atmosphere of the entire space subtly shifted.
“This Feng Shui formation really is quite something. Looks like I should study it thoroughly. Maybe someday I can set up a ‘romance formation’—then…”
Wiping the sweat from his brow, Xiao Yufan inwardly groaned. Completing the breaking and reconfiguration of this formation at this speed was even more exhausting than his previous ‘devil training.’ If it weren’t for his excellent physical condition, he would have collapsed from fatigue long ago.
Thankfully, Xiao Yufan had completed the task. Feeling the subtle energy fluctuations, a sly and wicked smile crept across his face. He had not only resolved the crisis for Huihuang but also ensured that Ling Yun would suffer some setbacks. A two-birds-with-one-stone situation—this deal was definitely worth it.
“I was born kind-hearted, but doing bad things is sometimes unavoidable. If others don’t provoke me, I won’t provoke them. But if they do, I will retaliate a thousandfold!”
Looking at the completed formation, Xiao Yufan couldn’t help but feel a sense of pity for Lingyun Enterprises. It seemed they would have to bear the consequences meant for the Capital Club. Though this Feng Shui formation wasn’t omnipotent, it would certainly bring some hardship to Lan Tianyuan.
Turning around, Xiao Yufan walked out of the mountain villa. His respect for Butler Fang had grown even more. Whether it was the choice of Hu family’s representative or leaving behind Lan Tianyuan’s birth chart this time, all had greatly aided him. The depth of this kindness could not be overstated.
Meanwhile, thousands of miles away in the UK, far from China, in a classical manor, Butler Fang stood still like an ancient meteorite that had never moved. His aged profile was filled with deep lines of time.
Before him stood a graceful and delicate young lady—Hu Yingluo, without a doubt. Compared to a year ago, she had matured further. A faint rosy glow graced her beautiful face, and in that moment, even the heavens seemed to dim in comparison.
“Old Butler Fang, how is… he doing now?”
Her voice was still as melodious as ever, but now it carried a slight tremble. Butler Fang looked at Hu Yingluo and couldn’t help shaking his head. Over the past year, only news of that man could stir the most sensitive strings in her heart.
“Master Xiao is doing very well. As the grandson of that old man from the Situ family, how could he not be living comfortably? As you said, he’s truly one of the rare and outstanding young talents I’ve ever seen!”
Butler Fang didn’t hold back his praise for Xiao Yufan. Although they had only spent a few hours together, he could sense that this man was indeed worthy of Hu Yingluo’s lifelong devotion. Over the past year, he had practically stayed by her side constantly, naturally knowing how deeply she had missed and longed for that man…
“As long as he’s doing well, it’s enough. I hope he hasn’t forgotten me. After all, it’s been a whole year…”
Hu Yingluo’s face showed a rare girlish tenderness. Her beautiful eyes slightly narrowed, and a subtle, charming smile curved her lips. Sometimes, a woman’s heart is entirely tied to the man she loves.
“It seems that Master Xiao doesn’t remember Miss Hu at all. If I hadn’t reminded him, he might not even remember who you are…”
“What? No way! How could Brother Fan have no memory of me at all!”
Unaware of the amused smile flickering across Butler Fang’s face, Hu Yingluo quickly responded. Then she realized something was off. Her face flushed red all the way to her ears, her smile tinged with both affection and annoyance.
“They say a woman in love loses her sense, and indeed, even though Miss Hu’s IQ is over two hundred, when it comes to matters of the heart, it drops to zero instantly. The power of love is truly immense!”
Shaking his head with a chuckle, Butler Fang rarely saw Hu Yingluo so flustered. Since she arrived in the UK, she hadn’t truly smiled in a long time. In reality, she didn’t ask for much—just knowing that the man still remembered her would be enough.
“Old Butler Fang, you’re teasing me again…”
Pouting slightly, Hu Yingluo looked somewhat embarrassed. After all, she wasn’t used to such teasing. Yet, thinking of Xiao Yufan far away in China, her heart inexplicably fluttered.
“Alright, alright. This old man shouldn’t talk too much. But there’s one thing I’d like to tell you—Qing Jia’s young master has started targeting Master Xiao. You know, with Fengyun Enterprise now under Qing family’s wing, they’ve gained enough resources.”
“If he dares to lay a finger on Brother Fan, I’ll make sure the Qing family vanishes from the face of the Earth…”
A powerful aura suddenly surged from her. Her brows slightly furrowed, Hu Yingluo exuded a commanding presence. Despite being in the UK, she kept track of Xiao Yufan’s every move. No one would doubt the Hu family’s influence in China—such knowledge was only natural.
Butler Fang was momentarily stunned. When had this girl become so formidable? It seemed Xiao Yufan truly possessed extraordinary charisma. Perhaps there were fewer than five people in the world who could provoke such intense emotions in Hu Yingluo.
“I think Master Xiao probably wouldn’t want Miss Hu to get involved in men’s affairs. Knowing his temper, if he found out you were secretly interfering with Fengyun Enterprise, he might not be very pleased. After all, no man likes to be overshadowed by a woman.”
“I understand that. Even without direct involvement, I won’t let Qing Yuanfeng harm Brother Fan…” A slight smile returned to her lips as if she had just thought of something. Her eyes narrowed slightly, and a charming, knowing smile bloomed…
