in the Northwest of H City held a temple fair as per usual. It was a bit livelier this time around as there was a little immortal in town who could calculate your fortune and was especially accurate.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It wasn\u2019t until 9 o\u2019clock that a teenage boy appeared. He took out a banner with the words \u201cFortune Telling\u201d written on it and put it on the table. Then, he slowly sipped on a cup of milk tea he was holding. This young man was handsome with beautiful peach blossom eyes and long eyelashes paired with fair skin. His eyes, both black and bright, appeared deeper<\/span> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">than normal people\u2019s.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As soon as he arrived, people who had been loitering nearby immediately surrounded him and formed a long queue.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cLittle Immortal, try to see my fortune. Anything\u2019s fine.\u201d A robust-looking big brother with big eyes and thick eyebrows came up to curry favor with him. Before he could sit however, Gu Ye waved his hand and said : \u201cGo away, your family is in harmony and you\u2019re in good health. What fortune do you want me to tell?\u201d<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As soon as he heard this, the big brother left happily as if he had just won a lottery.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cTch!\u201d A young man wearing expensive brand clothing stood out from the crowd, his handsome face was full of disdain. He looked at the big brother as if he was seeing a fool, and as if wondering if this village was full of idiots to even believe something like this.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">An old man in the front heard his disdainful tongue-clicking, turned around, and persuaded, \u201cBelieve it, lad. This young man is the most famous Little Immortal amongst all the villages in the vicinity.\u201d<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">At this moment, Gu Ye just happened to look up and glanced at the young man\u2019s face. He then looked at the girl beside the young man and his lips curled up in a smile. <\/span><em><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You really are something to have achieved this level of scum-ness.<\/span><\/em><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Only then did the young man see how Gu Ye looked like in full view.\u00a0 His breathing immediately stopped upon the sight of Gu Ye\u2019s smile. He was originally a well-off player who would eat both men and women and he only came to this god-forsaken place to get girls. He didn\u2019t expect to find a boy who was even more beautiful than girls here in this shabby town. Seeing as this young scammer didn\u2019t seem that old, Luo Jun Kun immediately got an idea. If he couldn\u2019t sleep with this girl, this boy would do.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Gu Ye knew what the young man thought with just a glance and was really amused. With this body he was reborn in, this son of a bitch would not be able to afford playing with it no matter how much money he has. This body belonged to a full-fledged young master of a rich family from Beijing, the Gu Family, that is well-known throughout the country. He\u2019s only here because his father sent him here to reflect on himself.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Several people in the front of the queue were driven away before it was finally the young man\u2019s turn. The girl who had her arms wrapped around his was very happy. \u201cLittle Immortal, when should we get married to have a blissful life together for a hundred years?\u201d<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Gu Ye picked up the milk tea from the table and slowly took a sip. He took out a WeChat QR code from his pocket and roughly handed it over.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The man glanced at the QR code and then his gaze fell on Gu Ye\u2019s face again. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">That arrogance, tsk tsk<\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> While smiling as he transferred the money, he leaned closer and said: \u201cCan I add this little mister on WeChat? I\u2019ll look for you again when we\u2019re inspecting the Feng Shui of our new home.\u201d<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Gu Ye looked at the amount of money he transferred. It was 50,000.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As soon as Gu Ye looked up, the man raised an eyebrow at him meaningfully.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The girl next to him was done. Tugging on her boyfriend\u2019s sleeves anxiously, she asked: \u201cJun Kun, why did you give him so much?\u201d<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Luo Jun Kun dotingly replied: \u201cIt doesn\u2019t matter. As long as it\u2019s for my baby, I\u2019ll spend as much as I want.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Hearing this, the girl looked at her boyfriend with eyes full of sentiment and blushed.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Gu Ye was amused by the display: \u201cLady, you\u2019re already as green as seaweed, please ask this bastard to leave ASAP. Don\u2019t let him harm people\u2019s good daughters anymore.\u201d<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">With just that, it was like a basin of cold water being dumped on the two, breaking their warm atmosphere.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cWhat did you say?!\u201d Luo Jun Kun was instantly incensed.<\/span> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">How could he say that after taking his money?!<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The girl was no better. Pressing down her anger, she asked with a frown, \u201cMaster, are you sure? You didn\u2019t look at our palms nor did you check our <a href=\"http:\/\/translatorschinanetwork.blogspot.com\/2017\/03\/chinese-fortune-telling-8-characters.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">characters<\/a><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. How can you say my boyfriend is no good?\u201d<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Gu Ye remained unhurried as he explained: \u201cYou can see from his <a href=\"https:\/\/gbtimes.com\/beginners-guide-chinese-face-reading\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">face<\/a><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> that he\u2019s a typical miserly person and is cursed to be without a wife and child. The tip of his eyebrows is too short and they\u2019re also messy. He must be unable to get along well with the peers in his family and is also unfilial. You must have heard of this, right? Moreover, he\u2019s also a standard <a href=\"https:\/\/chinese.stackexchange.com\/questions\/5956\/%E4%B8%89%E9%95%BF%E4%B8%A4%E7%9F%AD-whats-long-and-whats-short\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">three long and two short life<\/a><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, and the tip of his nose is blue which is a sign of soul separation. In the future, if he doesn\u2019t accumulate good virtues and deeds, and properly helps the souls of the children he aborted find peace,<\/span> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">he will definitely not be able to live beyond 36 years old.\u201d Finished, Gu Ye waved the two away and motioned for the next people in line.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The man\u2019s face turned ugly. The weather was cold, yet his forehead was drenched with sweat because the fortune teller was right!<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Yet, the girl\u2019s eyes right now were full of anger, focusing on Gu Ye: \u201cYou swindler! Cheater! Return our money!\u201d<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Gu Ye shook his head. Everyone in this world who went to fortune tellers wants to hear good news. But as the saying goes, out of ten people who were born in the year of the sheep, nine would not live good lives<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. How can there be so many people who could live such smooth lives without ups and downs in the world? \u201cWithin three steps from here, you will get the news that someone is pregnant with your boyfriend\u2019s last child. If this child is also aborted, then your boyfriend will really die without descendants.\u201d<\/span><\/p><p style=\"text-align: left;\"><em><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">[T\/N: The year of sheep was said to be lucky so people born in the year of sheep was generally won\u2019t have good fate but would at least be rich, I think. But women\u2019s status in ancient times is not good so folks generally believed that women born in the year of sheep would bring misfortune to their family, or so google told me.]<\/span><\/em><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The girl pulled her boyfriend forward to argue but unexpectedly, her boyfriend\u2019s phone rang after just two steps. Even if she didn\u2019t believe Gu Ye\u2019s words, she still felt uncomfortable after hearing Gu Ye say so much. So when she heard the ringtone, she naturally paid a lot of attention to it and looked at the screen intently. At this moment, the girl\u2019s face suddenly changed.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The message read: <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Kun-ge, I\u2019m pregnant with your child. Are you happy?<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The man stared at Gu Ye as if he was seeing a ghost. <\/span><em><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Sure enough, this fortune teller is surprisingly accurate.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/em><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cLuo Jun Kun, you son of a bitch!\u201d The girl reacted and slapped the man, maddened to tears.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Luo Jun Kun was in a daze, he didn\u2019t even respond when he was slapped. This fortune teller got even this thing right. So when he said that he wouldn\u2019t be able to live past 36, was that true? He\u2019s 28 years old this year!<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">With the girl\u2019s slap, a number of young guys quickly rushed in. These people were the girl\u2019s brothers and cousins. In the countryside, almost everyone was related to everyone else. When they see their sister being cheated by a bastard, they will beat up that bastard. During this chaos, Gu Ye stood up and began to pack up. Seeing that he was about to leave, someone stopped him and said: \u201cDon\u2019t go, Little Immortal. It\u2019s still early now, so please do two more fortune-telling.\u201d<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Gu Ye smiled then shook his head: \u201cNo, someone is already here to pick me up. That\u2019s my last divination here. I\u2019m going home.\u201d<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">At this moment, a luxurious business car stopped on the roadside. A beautiful woman wearing a small red jacket came out and was accompanied by a boy around 16 years old. As soon as Mrs. Gu saw what Gu Ye was doing, her mind immediately buzzed with anger. <\/span><em><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This Lao San<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, not only did he not repent, he even dared to engage in feudal superstition and even deceive people!<\/span><\/em><\/p><p><em>[T\/N: <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0Lao San = Old Three, he\u2019s the third child]<\/span><\/em><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Their family\u2019s Lao San was the disgrace of their rich family. He was both cowardly and dumb. His father spent a lot of money to get him into a key high school and he also didn\u2019t spare any penny to hire a tutor for him. He was in his third year now and still managed to score last on the previous exam. He was also blackmailed by petty thugs for half a year and kept silent about it for the whole time. Not only that, he didn\u2019t study during the holiday, but instead, spent his time learning Feng Shui and even dared to set up a <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Bagua\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Bagua<\/a> array<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> in his bedroom, as if he can pass the exam this way.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">His father\u2019s blood pressure went up from anger and he was sent to their hometown in the countryside to have <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Buke_(China)\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">remedial classes<\/a><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> and also to reflect on himself. His father didn\u2019t even want to see him during the New Year.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cGu Ye! You even dare to scam villagers, let\u2019s see how your father takes care of you!\u201d Mrs. Gu said while keeping her voice down. She unhappily rolled up the cloth on Gu Ye\u2019s stall and stuffed it into his pocket as she was afraid he would be busted just a second later and that someone would come to settle accounts with him.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Gu Ye said with an innocent air: \u201cIf he kills me, then you will lose a son. You can\u2019t get another one at this age, ah.\u201d<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Gu Ye didn\u2019t say anything wrong about his stepmother. Mrs. Gu was from humble origins, yet she still managed to be Mrs. Gu, showing that she\u2019s a person with means. However, she\u2019s not a big villain or something like that. It\u2019s just poverty that makes her greedy, so she made a lot of small schemes. Especially after having her own child. But, the original Gu Ye was raised by her from his childhood, after all, so she couldn\u2019t bear to kill or maim him. Thus, Mrs. Gu\u2019s usual scheme was to use this third child\u2019s stupidity and disobedience to highlight her own son\u2019s cleverness and obedience. She often used pillow talk to influence Father Gu, making Gu Ye\u2019s butt suffer from his old man\u2019s beating.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Mrs. Gu was stunned by what Gu Ye said. Only then, did she realize that Gu Ye had changed quite a lot. Since when did this stuttering kid get so sharp with his words? His gaze was also more lively, he was not dumb anymore? Only after that did she react and her face turned red. <\/span><em><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Who the heck is too old to give birth?!<\/span><\/em><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Gu Ye then fished out some small change from his left pocket he had left after buying milk tea &#8211; he still had 50 cents &#8212; and stuffed it all into Mrs. Gu\u2019s pocket. His tone was very filial: \u201cYour son made some money. I\u2019ll buy a chicken to make soup to nourish your body.\u201d<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Holding the money, Mrs. Gu stomped her feet angrily.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Gu Ye looked at the boy standing next to Mrs. Gu. He then smiled and beckoned to the young man with his finger: \u201cLao Si<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, come here!\u201d<\/span><\/p><p><em>[T\/N: <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Lao Si &#8211; Old Four &#8211; Fourth Child]<\/span><\/em><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">From his birth, the original body lacked one <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Hun_and_po\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">mortal soul<\/a><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> so he was timid and had a dull personality. No one was willing to play with him when he was a child, but this younger brother of his didn\u2019t disdain him at all. He stuck to him and would always come whenever he called. Perhaps he was influenced by the memories of the original body, but when Gu Ye saw the boy, he felt close and familiar.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Hearing his third brother calling for him, Gu Yang immediately went over happily like a big Alaskan Malamute<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">: \u201cBrother, you can really fortune tell? Why are you so different now?\u201d<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Patting the fourth child\u2019s head, Gu Ye said quite meaningfully: \u201cYes, your brother became the disciple of a particularly powerful teacher. So, you don\u2019t have to go to school in the future. Follow me, set up a stall under the overpass, and we will strike it big and get rich as we approach the peak of our lives with each passing minute!\u201d<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When his mother was giving birth to the original Gu Ye, she suffered a postpartum hemorrhage and couldn\u2019t be rescued. It was really inconvenient for Mr. Gu to take care of three children while managing his company at the same time, so he married the current Mrs. Gu and Gu Yang was born three years later. Gu Yang\u2019s identity was quite tricky in this family so Mrs. Gu began to plan for her son. However, this child was quite silly. Already at this age yet he still didn\u2019t know how to plan for his future. He only played and didn\u2019t do well academically either. He even ran after his big brothers every day, so his relationship with them was good.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Gu Ye took a closer look at Gu Yang\u2019s face. This child was a typical \u2018fool who has the luck of fools.\u2019 He can\u2019t learn, but he will be able to live a life full of wealth and will prosper from the dividends from his brothers. He will live a good life until he\u2019s old. Therefore, Gu Ye\u2019s words for him were: Kiddo, no need to study, it\u2019s not suitable for you.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Unexpectedly, Gu Yang actually believed him and immediately nodded, particularly interested. \u201cOkay, Okay! When shall we go? Let\u2019s just go tomorrow! Shall I wear a Taoist robe and pretend to be blind?\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Hearing this, Mrs. Gu was ready to beat Gu Ye to death: \u201cHe\u2019s not good at studying in the first place, only knows how to play and you still tell him to not work hard and profit through other people\u2019s toil!\u201d<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Gu Ye shrugged, palms up. \u201cI\u2019m telling the truth. You as well. Don\u2019t wear red too much in the future, the more you wear it the poorer you get.\u201d<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Like the <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Wuxing_(Chinese_philosophy)\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">five elements<\/a> of metal, wood, water, fire, and earth<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, the human body also has the same principles. Mrs. Gu\u2019s main element was metal. Her forehead was full, ears just right while her features were delicate with slender hands, a straight waist, and fair skin. People with this type of face usually will have a rich life once they\u2019re adults. Unfortunately, she liked red too much. Her clothes, nails, and lips were all red. Red is fire and fire restricts metal. This is why she lives a rich life but has no money in hand and can only rely on her husband.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cYou\u2026\u201d Mrs. Gu thought that he was deliberately annoying her. She then thought, <\/span><em><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Wait when we get back, see how your father cleans you up!<\/span><\/em><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Completely unaware of the disharmony between his mother and big brother, Gu Yang looked at them back and forth then asked with a puzzled expression: \u201cMother, Brother, is it not cold standing here? Let\u2019s go home.\u201d<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Mrs. Gu gritted her teeth in anger. <em>Y<\/em><\/span><em><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">ou foolish child!<\/span><\/em><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Gu Ye raised his hand and motioned to them: \u201cI still have something to take. Let\u2019s go back to the old house first.\u201d<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">After settling down in the capital, the Gu family still hadn\u2019t forgotten their hometown and built a two-story building there. The family would return here during the <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Qingming_Festival\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Qingming Festival<\/a><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> every year to worship their ancestors. The original Gu Ye was sent here to reflect on himself, but he accidentally fell and lost his life as a result. And Gu Ye, who shared the same name as the original, fortunately got his body. As soon as Gu Ye woke up, he found that although the original Gu Ye has a short life and will die young, he should still have more than half a year left. There was a remnant of evil spirit<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> left on his body and this was the reason for the original Gu Ye\u2019s untimely death. Gu Ye looked at his fingertips. He had scraped off the same evil spirit on both Gu Yang and Mrs. Gu, and they were even more serious than the one on the original Gu Ye. It seems that there\u2019s something happening with the Gu Family in Beijing.<\/span><\/p><p><em>[T\/N: Evil spirit &#8211; <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Sha Qi, negative <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Qi\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Qi<\/a>]<\/span><\/em><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Back in the old house, Gu Ye led Gu Yang to the living room and said seriously: \u201cSee? These are all the foundations your brother has gathered for you from all over the place. Let\u2019s take these spoils down and bring them back home.\u201d<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Shockingly, the wall was filled with embroidered banners! They even came in varying sizes and patterns!<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cWow! Brother, you\u2019re so awesome! As good as Second Brother and Eldest Brother!\u201d Gu Yang clenched his first in surprise. At this moment, Gu Ye\u2019s image had risen to 18 meters tall in his heart.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Mrs. Gu, who was a few steps behind, came in to take a look. She then gasped in anger as she thought, <\/span><em><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">These two imps! If these things were taken home, their father will break Gu Ye\u2019s legs!<\/span><\/em><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-109909b elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"109909b\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p style=\"font-size: x-small; color: #ffffff;\">If you&#8217;re seeing this notice, you&#8217;re reading this chapter on a pirate site &#8211; the original translator is Betwixted Translations.
