Chapter 94

In the past, Fang Tianfeng only vaguely understood, but now with the Heavenly Destiny Technique, his observational skills have greatly improved, and he has identified issues with Shen Xin.

Among the five women, when commenting on others, the other women would occasionally let their tempers get the best of them and say that someone was average or unattractive. Only Shen Xin never said anything bad about others; she always said good things. This led the other four women to treat Shen Xin as a caring older sister.

Fang Tianfeng, imitating what he had observed, mastered this skill in just an hour.

Especially after he subtly praised An Tian Tian a few times, her attitude changed noticeably, making Fang Tianfeng realize that affirming and praising others is a very powerful social skill.

Fang Tianfeng continued to shop with them and arrived at a store selling formal wear. Su Shishi, naively, picked out a blue-gray suit, held it in front of her, and asked the mirror, "Brother, does it look good?"

"Not bad, you'll look more mature in this suit," Fang Tianfeng "honestly" commented.

An Tian Tian immediately frowned and said, "What kind of taste do you have! Shishi is cute, not suitable for a suit."

Su Shishi felt a bit disappointed and asked, "Do I really look that bad in this?"

Fang Tianfeng immediately said, "Who dares to say my sister looks bad? You look great! An Tian Tian doesn't know anything! I don't even want to talk to her!"

An Tian Tian was furious. Su Shishi was too young and clearly unsuitable for such mature clothing.

Su Shishi immediately sweetly hugged Fang Tianfeng, pressing against his chest and saying, "As long as Brother likes it, that's all that matters! I wear clothes for Brother, not for others!"

Fang Tianfeng thought to himself that this was a good sister.

An Tian Tian was so annoyed by this pair of sweet siblings with no taste that she turned to look at something else.

After shopping for over two hours, the things in Fang Tianfeng's hands kept increasing, but fortunately, his body was very strong, and he didn't get tired no matter how much he carried.

Except for Su Shishi and Xia Xiaoyu, who offered to help carry, the other three women completely ignored him, and Fang Tianfeng secretly cursed them for being ungrateful.

The six of them shopped for two hours and then found a dessert shop to rest. The women ordered various desserts, such as double-layer milk, papaya snow frog, fruit salad, banana pancakes, caramel pudding, mango ice, and more.

Once they encountered desserts, they all became foodies.

Although Fang Tianfeng was a staunch carnivore, he was infected by their enthusiasm and tried some, finding them quite tasty.

However, Fang Tianfeng couldn't understand one thing: they had clearly eaten a lot at noon, and just two hours later, they were eating a lot of desserts as if nothing had happened. He finally understood the saying that women have three stomachs, one for main meals, one for desserts, and one for snacks.

After resting for half an hour, the five women set out again.

After walking for a while, An Tian Tian and Lu Yingna wanted to look at jewelry, while Su Shishi and Xia Xiaoyu wanted to buy some casual clothes, and Fang Tianfeng said he had too many things in his hands.

Thus, the six of them split into three groups: An Tian Tian and Lu Yingna together, Su Shishi and Xia Xiaoyu together, and Fang Tianfeng and Shen Xin took the things back to the car.

An Tian Tian created a group chat and added the other five people, chatting while shopping, having a great time.

After Fang Tianfeng and Shen Xin put the things in the car, they slowly walked back. Soon, Shen Xin felt tired and sat on a bench, and Fang Tianfeng sat with her, then sent a bit of essence energy into her body.

Shen Xin felt her fatigue disappear, looked at Fang Tianfeng, and her eyes were filled with warmth.

Shen Xin looked around and suddenly noticed a fortune-teller in a blue-gray robe sitting at a street corner. He was in his sixties, with white hair and a white beard, sitting on a chair with a wooden table in front of him. On the table were some papers and drawings, and a sign that read "Eight Characters Divination."

Shen Xin's heart rate quickened, and she turned to ask, "Xiaofeng, tell me your birth date and exact time of birth."

"What do you need that for?"

"It's none of your business, I just need to know!" Shen Xin immediately took on the air of Manager Shen.

Fang Tianfeng smiled and said it.

Shen Xin wrote it down, then wrote her own birth date on a piece of paper, and walked in high heels to the fortune-teller's table.

Fang Tianfeng used the Qi Perception Technique to look at the fortune-teller, smiled, and shook his head. There was no sign of essence energy flowing in the man's body, clearly indicating he was a fraud.

He was about to stop Shen Xin but then remembered that she rarely stopped others and often affirmed them, so he didn't intervene.

"It's just a fortune-telling, treat it as a game," Fang Tianfeng thought.

Shen Xin placed the two pieces of paper in front of the fortune-teller.

"This is mine, and this is the man's. Can you help us calculate our marital destiny?" Shen Xin asked, a bit nervous, excited, and shy.

Fang Tianfeng heard everything clearly.

The fortune-teller looked carefully and said, "Year of the Monkey, Month of the Pig, Day of the Tiger, Hour of the Rooster. Your eight characters are Metal, and the man's are Fire. It is said, 'Metal and Fire clash, harming six relatives; if not, there will be disobedience, and descendants will suffer poverty and loneliness.'"

Shen Xin was shocked and asked, "Are our eight characters clashing?"

The fortune-teller sighed and said, "From the perspective of the Five Elements, Fire does indeed overcome Metal. However, from the perspective of destiny, it is not Fire overcoming Metal, but Metal overcoming Fire."

Shen Xin's face turned pale, and she asked, "Master, can it be resolved?"

The fortune-teller said, "It can."

"How can it be resolved?" Shen Xin asked urgently.

"Let me calculate," the fortune-teller said.

Shen Xin looked at the fortune-teller half-believing, half-doubting.

The fortune-teller closed his eyes and slowly said, "Year of the Monkey, Month of the Pig, Day of the Tiger, Hour of the Rooster. You are destined for wealth and nobility, but your marital destiny is lacking. Is that correct?"

Shen Xin immediately believed him, saying, "Yes." She didn't believe in this before, but since meeting Fang Tianfeng, she had started to believe, and the fortune-teller's accuracy made her have to believe.

"Ah? If we use the Peach Blossom Destiny Calculation for the man, he has three peach blossoms: Xianchi, Yumen, and Qiangwai. This is a difficult situation," the fortune-teller said in surprise.

Shen Xin asked, "How is it difficult? What do these three peach blossoms mean?"

The fortune-teller smiled and said, "Xianchi peach blossom attracts many people, meaning the man is popular with women; Yumen peach blossom hides beauty, meaning the man is strong in that aspect and has a strong possessiveness; Qiangwai peach blossom blooms outside the wall, meaning the man thinks of more than one person. With these three peach blossoms, the man will face many romantic challenges in his life."

Shen Xin vaguely felt that Fang Tianfeng was indeed such a man.

Fang Tianfeng finally couldn't hold back and walked over, saying, "Watch your words!"

The fortune-teller looked carefully and smiled, saying, "It seems I was right. Your face and eight characters match, indicating you are destined for peach blossoms."

Shen Xin looked at Fang Tianfeng carefully and laughed, saying, "He's right, you are a bad guy who attracts women."

Fang Tianfeng ignored Shen Xin and said to the fortune-teller, "Don't make me expose you!"

The fortune-teller smiled slightly and looked at Shen Xin, saying, "I have thought of a way to resolve the clash. Since Metal and Fire clash, and Fire generates Earth, and Earth generates Metal, you can use soil from a hundred-year-old peach tree, place it in a pomegranate wood container soaked in talisman water, and place it in the bedroom during intimate moments. After three years, the clash will be resolved. After another three years, the two of you will live in harmony, with health and wealth."

Shen Xin blushed when she heard "intimate moments." Modern people don't use this term, but many know what it means.

Fang Tianfeng coldly asked, "We can't make this ourselves, so we need to buy it, right?"

The fortune-teller shook his head and said, "Sincerity is the key. Without sincerity, no amount of money will help. If you don't believe me, you can leave, and I won't charge you."

Shen Xin hesitated. In her view, whether it was true or not, buying peace of mind was better than anything. Even if it was fake, it would only cost some money, but if it was true, it would be even better.

Fang Tianfeng looked at the fortune-teller and coldly said, "I am also a practitioner. Let me calculate your destiny!"

The fortune-teller calmly said, "Please enlighten me, fellow practitioner."

"You have one son and two daughters. Your eldest daughter died fifteen years ago, your son died five years ago, and your second daughter is still alive, correct?"

"Correct." The fortune-teller's eyes became sharp.

"You lost your spouse three years ago, correct?"

"Correct." The fortune-teller remained calm.

"You have heart disease and have suffered a head injury, occasionally experiencing headaches, correct?"

"Correct." The fortune-teller's expression changed slightly.

"All your assets combined are about 700,000. You want to marry a woman, but she refuses, correct?"

The fortune-teller nodded blankly, beads of sweat appearing on his forehead.

"You were seriously ill ten years ago, almost dying! You offended a high official five years ago and fled here!"

"Stop!" The fortune-teller stood up in fear, instinctively trying to run away, but after taking one step, he stopped and showed a smile uglier than crying.

"I admit defeat! I didn't expect to meet a fellow practitioner! I don't know what your intentions are, but you have investigated my background."

Now it was Fang Tianfeng's turn to take the upper hand. He smiled slightly and said, "Tell her how you determined she was destined for wealth and had a lack in her marital destiny."

The fortune-teller honestly answered, "She was wearing a Chanel dress and carrying a Gucci bag, and she was well-maintained, so of course, she was destined for wealth."

"Damn!" Fang Tianfeng didn't expect the fortune-teller to know about fashion brands. Even those who practice feudal superstitions keep up with the times.

Shen Xin was speechless, not expecting this to be the reason.

"How did you know she had a lack in her marital destiny?"

"She is much older than you, and the way she looks at you is obvious even to a blind person. Since you two are not openly a couple, she naturally has a lack in her marital destiny," the fortune-teller said.

Shen Xin blushed and turned away, not looking at Fang Tianfeng. Although she had made up her mind, being confronted with it was still embarrassing.

"How did you know she wasn't married?" Fang Tianfeng asked to cover his embarrassment.

"A lack in marital destiny can mean she lacks a partner, lacks affection in marriage, lacks the conditions for marriage, or even lacks children," the fortune-teller said frankly.
