After tidying up the living room, Xiao Yufan returned to the bedroom. It was almost three o’clock in the early morning, yet Xiao Yufan showed no signs of sleepiness…
Lying on the bed, Xiao Yufan stared at the ceiling, which hadn’t been cleaned for who knows how long, its yellowed surface stirring a sense of nostalgia. Before he realized it, he had fallen into deep thought.
This recent housing issue had fully confirmed his special ability. If this were merely a sixth sense, it would seem too far-fetched. Could a sixth sense really predict the future? Naturally, the answer was no.
In the realm of mysticism, this ability to foresee the future is called “clairvoyance,” something quite mysterious and elusive. Even so, Xiao Yufan had never met anyone who had truly attained such a level. After all, predicting the future sounded utterly incredible.
“Could it be because of my Yin-dominant birth date?” Xiao Yufan’s mind raced with possibilities, yet after much thought, this was the only explanation that somewhat made sense.
People born with an entirely Yin birth date are rare to begin with. It’s not unusual for strange occurrences to accompany such individuals. Many believe those with extreme birth dates are simply oddities.
“Should I seek out someone skilled in Chinese astrology to have my birth chart interpreted?”
Xiao Yufan murmured to himself. Then he couldn’t help but chuckle. After all, he himself was an expert in mysticism. Who could possibly understand the intricacies of birth dates better than him? Yet even he couldn’t detect any hidden secrets within his own chart.
“Whatever, if it’s a blessing, it won’t turn into a disaster; if it’s a disaster, it won’t be avoided. I refuse to believe that a Yin-dominant birth date can do much to me…”
He pulled the covers over his head, unwilling to dwell on these troubling thoughts. Let the problems come—he’d deal with them as they arose. There was no need to burden himself with unnecessary worries.
Meanwhile, Yu Yihan had also not fallen asleep after returning to the bedroom. As time passed, she increasingly realized she had underestimated Xiao Yufan. This somewhat roguish man had brought her many miracles.
“Which one is the real him…” Yu Yihan’s mind was filled with Xiao Yufan’s image. Though she never voiced it, it was undeniable—Xiao Yufan had quietly taken residence in her heart, and unspoken feelings continued to take root and grow.
Seeing Xiao Yufan growing closer to Hu Yingluo always made Yu Yihan feel uneasy. Perhaps only by getting angry could she make Xiao Yufan behave, but wasn’t this also a form of torment for her?
Her mind kept flashing images of the two of them together. Yu Yihan smiled dreamily, a smile that could charm a kingdom. Yet Xiao Yufan, this wolf of a man, remained oblivious.
Yu Yihan strongly believed in destiny, likely influenced by her father. She firmly believed that many fates often arose from unexpected moments.
“He saved me from misfortune twice already, just as that master had predicted. Could he really be my guardian angel? But he…”
Recalling the words of that hermit sage, a delicate blush spread across Yu Yihan’s beautiful face. Initially, she had chosen to rent this place entirely on the sage’s advice. After experiencing so much, she could no longer ignore the destined connection foretold by that person.
The quiet night was intoxicating in its serenity. Even in this bustling city, perhaps only at this hour could it briefly return to peace.
Soon, only faint snoring sounds remained in the rented apartment. After all the turmoil, both were exhausted. Following their contemplations, they gradually drifted into slumber.
…
Xiao Yufan had originally planned to sleep in on the weekend, but he was rudely awakened early in the morning…
“Dude, did you take some stimulants or something? Do you even know what day it is? You can’t be doing this on a weekend! That’s not fair!”
Xiao Yufan was grumpy from being woken up before seven. He wasn’t happy at all—he had gone to bed late the night before and was completely exhausted.
“Umm… I didn’t mean to… Did I interrupt you doing something important?”
Ma Teng’s voice carried a suggestive tone, instantly dissipating Xiao Yufan’s irritation. Xiao Yufan knew Ma Teng must have something important to say if he called this early.
“You totally meant it, didn’t you? Alright, spit it out—what’s going on? If you don’t give me a damn good reason for waking me up this early, you’re dead meat…”
“It’s about choosing a location for the company today. Come help me decide. Saves us from hiring a feng shui master! You know the location of a company can determine its success. You don’t want your buddy to go bankrupt, do you? Remember, half of this company is yours!”
“Alright, alright, I’ll come. You’re such a schemer, but I guess I can’t really trust this to anyone else either…”
“Great! I’ll wait for you here. Get ready and come over. Oh, and I’ll also introduce you to some of our future company friends. As a major shareholder, you can’t avoid showing up forever, right…”
