Before the stall owners could react, they saw Shen Chun pick up a sign. The sign said that the fortune-telling would be free if it wasn’t accurate. With a thud, it was placed in the empty space beside them.
After they exchanged looks of dismay, their gaze turned hostile.
“Miss, how much does this divination cost?”
“A hundred thousand.” Her divination was definitely worth this much money.
A few people gasped and said, “You must be crazy. We only dare to ask for two hundred. If you ask for a hundred thousand, isn’t that highway robbery?”
Shen Chun couldn’t be bothered to argue. “If I sit here, I’ll naturally meet fated customers.”
“Ridiculous!”
The few of them thought that Shen Chun was fooling around. How could a rich person pay 100,000 yuan for a divination under the bridge? Unless this person was crazy.
——
On the other side, in a high-end teahouse opposite the bridge, Fu Shi was catching up with his two good friends.
The two of them were Wang Ming, the young master of the Wang family, and Wei Zhun, the young master of the Wei family.
Wang Ming was a famous celebrity in the industry. He had just won a famous international award some time ago, and Wei Zhun was a famous director. The two of them had just returned from overseas, so Fu Shi welcomed them back.
“Fu Shi, I heard that Old Master Fu wants you to marry the eldest daughter of the Su family?” Wang Ming raised his teacup and teased, “I thought you would be a bachelor for the rest of your life. I didn’t expect there to be a day when you interacted with women.”
“That engagement has been called off.”
Wei Zhun was stunned. “When did you cancel it? Why didn’t we receive the news?”
“A few hours ago.” Fu Shi’s tone was calm, but his words were like a bombshell. “I’ve already registered my marriage today.”
“How is that possible?!”
“That’s impossible!”
The two of them spoke in unison, their handsome faces filled with confusion. “With whom? When did you meet other women?”
Fu Shi took out the marriage certificate and threw it in front of the two of them.
Wang Ming opened the marriage certificate. When the two of them saw the beautiful girl beside Fu Sh, their eyes widened even more.
“Shen Chun? Whose daughter is she? Why haven’t I heard of her before?”
Fu Shi drank his tea slowly. “Just remember it in the future.”
Wang Ming flipped through the marriage certificate again and again to confirm that Fu Shi hadn’t faked it. “You’re really impressive. You married such a beautiful wife without saying anything. Tell me, how did you two meet?”
Fu Shi’s gaze was gloomy as he asked, “Are you sure you want to hear it?”
“Of course! Tell me quickly.”
Fu Shi could only satisfy their wishes. “We met at a bar. She read my fortune and said that I would be in a bloody disaster, so I followed her instructions and changed to another car. I successfully avoided the car accident. Then, I watched her catch ghosts with my own eyes, and after that, we got married.”
There was so much mindblowing news from Fu Shi’s words that the two of them were stupefied. “Fu Shi, did you encounter a scammer? What on earth are you talking about? I think you should go to the hospital to check your brain.”
Wei Zhun nodded as well. “That’s right. We have to believe in science. What kind of charlatan did you encounter? Even the fortune tellers under the bridge don’t lie like her.”
With that, he subconsciously looked at the bridge and saw Shen Chun among a group of old men.
“That’s strange. Why is there a little girl over there?”
“Where?” Wang Ming followed his gaze and saw a little girl mixed in. “She’s quite good-looking, but what a pity that she’s involved in this sort of business.”
He took a closer look and felt that the little girl looked familiar, so he picked up Fu Shi’s marriage certificate.
After comparing for a moment, he came to a conclusion.
That girl was Fu Shi’s wife—Shen Chun.
“Fu Shi, you’re so stingy. You don’t even give the little girl any pocket money, so she has to set up a stall to earn money.”
Fu Shi frowned as he looked at Shen Chun. Wasn’t Shen Chun in the hospital just now? How come she had set up a stall in the blink of an eye?
Wang Ming nudged Fu Shi’s arm. “Do you need my help? I’ll go over and let her read my fortune, then I’ll expose her true colors on the spot.”
“Shen Chun is not a fraud.” Fu Shi retracted his gaze and waved his hand as he said aloofly, “If the two of you want to go, go.”
After all, back then, he felt the same as Wang Ming and Wei Zhun did now. In the end, Shen Chun changed his worldview.
