On the stone bridge, there was a stall selling women's clothing in ancient costumes. Many people were gathered in front of it, taking photos in ancient costumes. Yuan Shuang knew that it was inappropriate for a woman to be present when men were talking, so she dragged Lian Shijian to take photos with her.
With a cigarette in his mouth, Ye Xuan sat on the stone block of the old stone bridge and took a deep drag.
"Bufan, are you hiding something from me? I feel that you have changed a lot these few months." Ye Xuan turned around and looked at Zhuo Bufan quietly.
Zhuo Bufan put his hands behind his back and looked at the wooden boat drifting under the stone bridge. "I have indeed changed a lot, but there are many things that I can't tell you for now."
"You are my best friend and brother. Can't you tell me anything?" Ye Xuan frowned and said.
"As a brother, if you can't feel it, it's useless even if I tell you ten thousand times." Zhuo Bufan said calmly.
Hearing his words, Ye Xuan was startled and smiled. "Yes, I believe you."
Actually, Zhuo Bufan didn't want to tell Ye Xuan because it was for his own good. The path of cultivation was not always smooth sailing. When he became a Nine Revolution Immortal Lord, he had experienced countless life and death situations. He lived in the midst of conspiracies, assassinations, and battles.
"Young Master Xuan, did something happen in your family?" Zhuo Bufan suddenly asked.
Ye Xuan hesitated for a moment, then sighed and said, "I'm worried about this. My father used to be the chairman of the board of directors of the Ye family, but I think he will step down after the election this month."
"My father has spent too much effort on the company these few years. His health is slowly deteriorating. The board of directors is electing the next chairman. You know me, I only know how to flirt with girls all day. I have no achievements. If my father steps down, I will be kicked out of the core circle of the Ye family. I won't have a chance in this lifetime."
"As long as I'm here, I'll definitely help you." Zhuo Bufan said calmly.
Ye Xuan thought that he was just trying to comfort himself. He knew that Zhuo Bufan was good at fighting, but in society, one's fists alone were not enough.
First Uncle's son was the favored son of the third generation of the family. Second Uncle's son, Ye Huai, had also made some achievements. Even the younger generation of the other branches had their own achievements. Those who were still studying had better results than him. In the future, they would all enter the top schools in the country.
"Thank you." Ye Xuan smiled faintly.
"They're over there. Let's go and have some fun." Ye Xuan put out the cigarette on the trash can, got up, and walked toward the stone bridge.
Zhuo Bufan followed suit.
It turned out that Yuan Shuang and Lian Shijian had both changed into ancient court ladies' costumes. Their sleeves were long and sleeves were long, and they looked graceful and graceful. Together with the antique buildings, stone bridges, and flowing water around them, they had a unique flavor.
"Young Lord Xuan."
"Young Master."
Lian Shijian turned her head. Her hair was tied up in a black ribbon, and two strands of hair fell on her cheeks. She was the type of woman that men would want to marry.
The two of them were standing in front of a fortune-telling stall.
Yuan Shuang held onto Ye Xuan's arm and said, "This fortune-telling stall's old man is really weird. We paid him, but he wouldn't read our fortunes."
"He's just a scammer. It's all fake. He's just playing hard to get you to pay more. I've seen it many times." Ye Xuan explained.
Zhuo Bufan looked at the old man. He was wearing a green robe and had a beard. He looked like an immortal.
"Who said I'm a scammer? I don't believe it. Let me take a look." The old man was so angry that he glared at them.
He didn't expect a grown man like him to be so easily provoked.
"Help me take a look first." Yuan Shuang stretched out her palm.
The old man took a look and frowned. "Eh, you were originally destined to be a magpie, but you've suddenly become a peacock. You'll be rich and powerful in the future."
After saying that, the old man said curiously, "Fate is determined by the heavens. I've never seen a person who can live for more than ten years and change their fate. Unless they have the help of a rich person."
"I want to take a look too." Lian Shijian said curiously.
The old man helped him take a look. His mouth opened wide enough to fit an egg. "You were originally destined to be a sparrow. You'll be a maid for the rest of your life."
"So miserable?" Yuan Shuang curled her lips and comforted him. "You'll be fine if you listen to this kind of gossip."
"But, how did you become a phoenix? Your Life Palace is filled with purple energy. You're so noble!" The old man couldn't close his mouth.
Lian Shijian covered his mouth and snickered. "You're just saying nice things to make me happy."
"I'm telling the truth. You guys must have had the help of a noble person to change your fate." The old man was so excited that the flesh on his face twitched.
Ye Xuan was in the mood to play. She stretched out her palm and said, "Then help me take a look."
The old man took a look and frowned. "You've had too many disasters in your life. You've been living a miserable life since you turned thirty. You've even become a beggar. But …"
"Oh my god, what the hell." The old man suddenly screamed and fell to the ground. His face was green and red. He stammered, "How did you become a noble? Who has the ability to change someone's name?!"
Zhuo Bufan glanced at him. If what the old man said was true, then Lian Shijian, Ye Xuan, and Yuan Shuang's fate might have been changed by her.
"Forget it. Let's just have fun. Let's go shopping." Zhuo Bufan said.
Everyone was educated in science. They didn't believe in such superstitious fortune-telling. They just wanted to have fun. Ye Xuan generously placed a hundred yuan on the old man's table and the group continued to play.
The old man looked at Zhuo Bufan's back and muttered to himself, "I've seen a living Buddha!"
They played until six in the evening before they left Qibao Town.
Ye Xuan lived in Xinping's Longgang Bay Villa District. They took a taxi and arrived there. "This is my home. My parents should be at home."
Yuan Shuang looked embarrassed. She pinched his arm. "You're so mean. Didn't you say that there's no one at home?"
"I was afraid that you'd be too shy to come back with me." Ye Xuan rubbed her nose.
Lian Shijian, who was standing at the side, sniggered. He stole a glance at Zhuo Bufan from the corner of his eye and sighed softly in his heart.
"Third Young Master, you're back." The servant in the villa saw Ye Xuan and walked over.
The villa was built in Chinese style. It was decorated with geometric patterns. There was a swimming pool on the left and a back garden at the back. A room in Xinping County would cost about ten million yuan.
"Mom, Dad, I'm back." Ye Xuan was studying in Jinling. He only came back once every semester.
As soon as he walked in, Zhuo Bufan frowned. He saw three men and a middle-aged couple sitting in the living room. The middle-aged couple looked similar to Ye Xuan. They should be his parents.
Mother Ye, Jiang Shidan, saw her son whom she hadn't seen for more than three months. She stood up excitedly and pulled him. "Xiao Xuan, how was the exam? It's okay if you didn't do well. I have a good friend who is a leader in the Education Bureau in Zhonghai. I'll ask her to arrange for you to go to university there. "
The middle-aged man with thick eyebrows and big eyes looked at his doting wife and snorted coldly.
