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 didnât have any specific people around her to defend herself or take caution against. Fang Tongtong used to be her best friend, but now she couldnât even believe her words anymore.
Itâs harder to draw a tigerâs bone than to draw its skin. Similarly, you may know a personâs face but not his heart.
What was the meaning of the last few words that the blind uncle said? âDonât be overly cautious against some people.â 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, âThe blind uncle said that we shouldnât get married this year.â
âWhy?â Shen Zhilieâs expression looked dead serious as he asked, âWhy canât we get married? Is it because your grandfather passed away this year?â
âWell, thatâs one of the reasons, but...â Ye Qianqian pulled Shen Zhilie closer and continued walking. âUncle said that my fortune is too powerful. My younger sisterâs fortune is too weak in comparison, so I lost half of my fortune to her. While my sisterâs greatest difficulty has passed, mine hasnât arrived yet.â
She spoke to Shen Zhilie with a hurt expression. She looked up at him and said, âMy toughest challenge to come might actually be infertility.â
âWhat do you mean? What do you mean by tough challenge?â Shen Zhilie thought it was all nonsense. âWhat on earth is this? I knew that we shouldnât have come here. I couldnât even understand a lot of the things you were saying. You didnât translate them for me. If you had, I couldâve questioned him face to face!â
âNo, it is better to believe in this kind of thing than nothing. I think we should believe some of it. And about your grandmother... didnât she also say that I may not have children?â
âItâs impossible.â Shen Zhilie stopped and cupped her face in his hands. âThatâs because we used to use contraception for fear of pregnancy. If we donât use contraception later, you can try it.â
âOh, now it is not the right time to say that!â Ye Qianqian felt a little upset. âUncle said always defend yourself against evil people. I canât figure out how I have so many villains around me in my life!â
âHuh? Didnât you say that you only met one before?â
âWho are you trying to say it is?â Ye Qianqian looked at Shen Zhilie as if she had guessed already. âIs it Tongtong?â
âWhat do you think?â
âUncle 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. Iâm sure it wonât happen again.â
âDo you want to make up with her?â
âNo.â Ye Qianqian was feeling a little depressed. âAfter all, Iâve known her for so many years. I think...â
âWell, I see.â Shen Zhilie held her close. âDid he tell you who you need to defend yourself against?â
âHow could he tell me that? Wouldnât that become a prophecy?â
âIsnât everything he said a prophecy?â Shen Zhilie raised his eyebrows. âItâs no different. Did he tell you what kind of difficulties will lead to your infertility?â
âI donât know.â Ye Qianqian scratched her head. âItâs an evil person.â
âSo he basically told you nothing.â
âI wouldnât say that. At least Iâll be sure to be on my guard. But we canât get married this year,â Ye Qianqian said as she held Shen Zhilieâs arm.
âWhat will happen if you get married?â
âMy good fortune will be lost again, which means Iâll have even more bad luck. â
Shen Zhilie listened and gave up at this point. However, he still wanted to make one last effort. âIf not now, then when can you get married? Youâre already twenty-six years old!â
âMaybe... when Iâm twenty-eight...â
