The Feng Shui formation wasn’t unfamiliar to Xiao Yufan, as certain places naturally formed such mysterious arrays, like the Ling Mountain Buddhist Pagoda Cemetery, which exuded an aura of mystery without any artificial embellishment.
This time, he had clearly been framed by someone intentionally using a Feng Shui formation to suppress his fortune. The idea was actually quite clever. Didn’t those people realize that the Situ family itself was a renowned Feng Shui clan? Attempting such a stunt in front of the master was simply laughable.
“How should we break this Feng Shui formation? If this influence isn’t eliminated, it will definitely bring disaster to the Huishui Corporation…”
Xiao Yufan knew that since his grandfather was aware of this, he must have a solution. After a brief pause, he decided to seek advice from the elder Situ. After all, all his knowledge of Feng Shui, directly or indirectly, had been passed down by this old man.
“Matters not concerning me, I won’t meddle in. Huishui is now in your hands, nothing to do with me. So, figure out the solution yourself!”
The elder Situ smiled oddly, leaving Xiao Yufan speechless. Clearly, the old man had no intention of revealing the method to break the formation. How could he expect him to come up with a solution without any clues?
“Can you at least give me a hint…” Xiao Yufan grinned ingratiatingly, having no choice but to turn to the elder for help. Huishui had consumed all his efforts, and if things continued like this, he feared he might break down.
“No… However, I can tell you one thing: this Feng Shui formation must have been set in a place you’ve recently visited. Think carefully about where you’ve been these past few days, and then locate the formation to break it.”
Before Xiao Yufan could finish speaking, the elder Situ had already cut in. Although he offered a clue, he still withheld the actual solution, leaving Xiao Yufan quite troubled. Unknown challenges were always so perplexing.
However, reminded by his grandfather, a sudden image of the Wolong Villa flashed through Xiao Yufan’s mind. He had distinctly felt as if a pair of eyes had been watching him there. Perhaps Wolong Villa was the location of the Feng Shui formation.
“I get it now. It must have happened at the financial summit. After all, that’s the only place I’ve been recently, and such a chaotic environment would be the easiest place to divert my attention!”
Realizing this, Xiao Yufan became instantly excited. Now that he had narrowed it down to Wolong Villa, things would be much easier. The person who had plotted against him would never expect him to figure it out so quickly. If possible, he might even identify the real culprit.
“Oh? You figured it out so fast? Looks like I underestimated you. Are you excited now?”
Observing Xiao Yufan’s enthusiasm, the elder Situ shook his head helplessly before speaking.
“Of course I’m excited. I don’t even know how brilliant I am. Trying to play tricks on me—they’re way too inexperienced!”
“Excited, my foot! Now that you know, why are you still standing here? Don’t you realize this Feng Shui formation not only suppresses fortune but can also cause serious harm to you…”
Seeing Xiao Yufan’s excitement, the elder Situ almost kicked him all the way to Wolong Villa. Of course, the formation wasn’t as ominous as he described, but prolonged exposure might genuinely affect Xiao Yufan.
“Why didn’t you tell me earlier? Knowing the formation could harm me and not helping me resolve it—what a tough life I have…”
Xiao Yufan was first taken aback, then exaggeratedly pouted. Since taking over Huishui Corporation, he had noticed his grandfather had changed a lot, becoming more casual than before. Despite that, Xiao Yufan remained very close to this family elder.
Before the elder could speak again, Xiao Yufan had already walked out, leaving only his back view behind. If the Feng Shui formation really had such a significant impact, it was better to destroy it sooner rather than later.
Watching Xiao Yufan disappear down the road, the elder Situ finally retracted his warm smile, his lips curling into a cold arc. At this moment, he looked more like the once-feared “Silver Fox of Business” who had stirred storms in the commercial world…
“I didn’t want to target your Beijing Club—it was only to maintain the balance in Beijing. Let’s see how much longer you can keep dancing. How long can Lingyun and Fengyun remain your puppets?”
With a cold snort, the elder Situ’s expression turned icy. The Beijing Club’s covert actions were unforgivable. If it came to open confrontation, Huishui would no longer be in such a passive position.
…
At this moment, Xiao Yufan was heading toward Wolong Villa. Sometimes life loved playing jokes. He had only been away for a few days, yet he was already returning. He couldn’t help but sigh at the irony.
The same few unlucky men were once again guarding the villa entrance, but this time, they were clearly less arrogant. As soon as they spotted Xiao Yufan, their hearts began to pound nervously. It seemed the previous encounter had left a deep impression on them.
“I’d like to see Master An, if you gentlemen could kindly inform him…”
Xiao Yufan knew he had been in the right last time, but he couldn’t afford to act too domineering now. After all, this was their territory. Moreover, coming here again was somewhat impolite.
“Master An has returned to the UK, but before leaving, he specifically instructed that if Master Xiao ever came back, you must let you in. He also left something for you…”
One of the guards nervously stepped forward. After confirming Xiao Yufan wouldn’t attack, he took an item from his chest and handed it over. Clearly, this man still harbored some fear toward Xiao Yufan.
“Back to the UK?” Xiao Yufan frowned. That was quite fast. The financial summit had only ended a few days ago, yet An had already returned to Britain. It seemed that for this summit, the butler had personally made the trip.
What puzzled Xiao Yufan most was that Master An seemed to have anticipated his return. Not only had he given instructions to the guards, but he had also left something for him. This suggested that An must have known something, saving Xiao Yufan quite a bit of trouble.
Nodding slightly, Xiao Yufan walked directly into the estate. The guard’s heart finally settled, wiping the cold sweat from his forehead, only then realizing his back was soaked. Facing Xiao Yufan, he always felt an invisible pressure.
