Chapter 1851: You May Know a Person’s Face but Not His Heart
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Ye Qianqian suddenly had a sense of her life being spoiled like a trailer after hearing what the uncle said.
But when she thought about it, it seemed that she didn’t have any specific people around her to defend herself or take caution against. Fang Tongtong used to be her best friend, but now she couldn’t even believe her words anymore.
It’s harder to draw a tiger’s bone than to draw its skin. Similarly, you may know a person’s face but not his heart.
What was the meaning of the last few words that the blind uncle said? ‘Don’t be overly cautious against some people.’ Was it about Fang Tongtong?
After chatting with the blind uncle for a little while, Ye Qianqian left some money for him to buy some nutrient supplements before taking off.
When they came out of his house, Ye Qianqian told Shen Zhilie, “The blind uncle said that we shouldn’t get married this year.”
“Why?” Shen Zhilie’s expression looked dead serious as he asked, “Why can’t we get married? Is it because your grandfather pa.s.sed away this year?”
“Well, that’s one of the reasons, but…” Ye Qianqian pulled Shen Zhilie closer and continued walking. “Uncle said that my fortune is too powerful. My younger sister’s fortune is too weak in comparison, so I lost half of my fortune to her. While my sister’s greatest difficulty has pa.s.sed, mine hasn’t arrived yet.”
She spoke to Shen Zhilie with a hurt expression. She looked up at him and said, “My toughest challenge to come might actually be infertility.”
“What do you mean? What do you mean by tough challenge?” Shen Zhilie thought it was all nonsense. “What on earth is this? I knew that we shouldn’t have come here. I couldn’t even understand a lot of the things you were saying. You didn’t translate them for me. If you had, I could’ve questioned him face to face!”
“No, it is better to believe in this kind of thing than nothing. I think we should believe some of it. And about your grandmother… didn’t she also say that I may not have children?”
“It’s impossible.” Shen Zhilie stopped and cupped her face in his hands. “That’s because we used to use contraception for fear of pregnancy. If we don’t use contraception later, you can try it.”
“Oh, now it is not the right time to say that!” Ye Qianqian felt a little upset. “Uncle said always defend yourself against evil people. I can’t figure out how I have so many villains around me in my life!”
“Huh? Didn’t you say that you only met one before?”
“Who are you trying to say it is?” Ye Qianqian looked at Shen Zhilie as if she had guessed already. “Is it Tongtong?”
“What do you think?”
“Uncle also told me not to be too defensive and cautious. I think Tongtong is still kind-hearted, after all. She was just a little confused regarding the previous incident. I’m sure it won’t happen again.”
“Do you want to make up with her?”
“No.” Ye Qianqian was feeling a little depressed. “After all, I’ve known her for so many years. I think…”
“Well, I see.” Shen Zhilie held her close. “Did he tell you who you need to defend yourself against?”
“How could he tell me that? Wouldn’t that become a prophecy?”
“Isn’t everything he said a prophecy?” Shen Zhilie raised his eyebrows. “It’s no different. Did he tell you what kind of difficulties will lead to your infertility?”
“I don’t know.” Ye Qianqian scratched her head. “It’s an evil person.”
“So he basically told you nothing.”
“I wouldn’t say that. At least I’ll be sure to be on my guard. But we can’t get married this year,” Ye Qianqian said as she held Shen Zhilie’s arm.
“What will happen if you get married?”
“My good fortune will be lost again, which means I’ll have even more bad luck. ”
Shen Zhilie listened and gave up at this point. However, he still wanted to make one last effort. “If not now, then when can you get married? You’re already twenty-six years old!”
“Maybe… when I’m twenty-eight…”
