Grandfather Han put down the celadon teacup in his hand and raised his eyes to continue sizing up the man in the white suit in front of him.
Qin Shu walked to the seat at the side on her own accord and sat down with her knees bent. Her behaviour was calm and unrestrained.
This kind of behaviour was not in line with etiquette, but this mysterious and nobleman in front of him was very relaxed and natural.
Old Master Han raised his eyebrows, but he did not flare-up.
“Who are you?”
Qin Shu raised her eyes slightly and her gaze was cold. “Old Master Han, it’s better if you don’t know.”
Old Master Han was stunned. He turned his head and looked at his grandson with an inquiring gaze.
Han Xiao shook her head, indicating that he did not know.
Even Xiao’er did not know who he was?
Old Master Han retracted his gaze and ignored who he was. Instead, he asked, “You said that this is not a good day for the engagement. I don’t know what you mean.”
Qin Shu raised her eyes slightly and her gaze was clear and cold. “It’s literally what I mean.”
Old Master Han frowned and was slightly displeased.
“You know how to read faces?”
Qin Shu: “I don’t.”
“You know how to read fortunes?”Old Master Han asked again.
Qin Shu: “I don’t.”
Old Master Han revealed a slightly angry expression. “Then how do you determine that this is not a good day?”
“Because I assert that it is not a good day.”
She spoke of assertions, not predictions. The meaning was almost the same, but the mood was different.
The light sentence shocked Master Han.
“Assert that this is not a good day?”
What did he mean?
Soon, Qin Shu answered.
“A man stands at thirty. There are no disasters and no dangers after that, and vice versa.”
What she meant was that after thirty years old, it was a good day to get married.
After thirty years old?
Then wouldn’t he have to wait another seven years?
Old Master Han’s anger grew. “You don’t know how to read people’s faces and fortune-telling. Just because of your assertion, you want my Xiao’er to wait another seven years before getting married?”
Old Master Han shouted angrily, “Ridiculous!”
Han Xiao glanced at the man in the white suit. His purple eyes were full of mystery, and the temperament he gave off when he came to his senses was noble and spiritual.
He didn’t look like someone who was nurtured by power and benefits.
Thinking that Qin Shu asked him to come, he probably didn’t have any bad intentions.
Qin Shu was calm about the angry Old Master Han.
She didn’t explain further but said, “If I said, in less than five minutes, there will be a fire in the Han manor. Do you believe me, Old Master Han?”
Old Master Han sneered, obviously, he didn’t believe her.
“Since the Han manor was established, the security system has been done very well. There has never been a fire. Even if there is an accident, it will be dealt with in time.”
Old Master Han spoke with confidence.
Qin Shu smiled but did not say anything.
The next second, the butler rushed in from outside. “Old Master, something bad happened. Hanqiao courtyard is on fire. Half of the house has been burned down.”
Old Master Han was shocked. He glanced at the man in the white suit. “Bring me there to take a look.”
Then, he left in large strides.
The Butler walked in front.
Han Xiao looked at the man in the white suit without any expression. Under his calm face, there was a huge wave of surprise.
He retracted his gaze and said, “Bring me there to have a look.”
Li Hang pushed Han Xiao out of the front hall.
Qin Shu blinked, stood up, and followed him out.
Hanqiao courtyard was located in the northwest direction. It was not in a remote location, but there was no one living in it. Instead, it was an empty courtyard.
Logically speaking, even if it was burned down, it would not have caused Old Master Han to panic so much.
However, not only did Old Master Han panic, he looked as if he had lost a precious treasure.
When they rushed to Hanqiao courtyard, the flames soared into the sky. Many servants were putting out the fire.
Even if the fire was extinguished, Hanqiao courtyard was almost destroyed.
“What the h*ll is going on?” Old Master Han scolded angrily.
“Old Master, I’m not sure either. When the guards came to report, the fire had started,” the butler answered carefully.
Old Man Han was so angry that his beard was shaking. “Are you all trash? You only discovered the fire after it was so big? Are you all living for nothing?”
The Butler lowered his head and did not dare to speak.
Because when they discovered it, the fire had started.
The guards and servants were all putting out the fire.
It took some time before the fire was put out.
Only the remains of Hanqiao courtyard were left. Green smoke floated everywhere, and it was a tragic sight.
Old Master Han held onto his dragon-headed walking stick and looked at the incomplete Hanqiao courtyard. His gaze was wandering.
Qin Shu stood upright less than five meters away and glanced at the Hanqiao courtyard after the fire was put out.
A fire in Hanqiao courtyard was inevitable.
But because of her, it was brought forward.
In her previous life, she accidentally found an article about someone’s old friend called Hanqiao.
The main character of the article mentioned that Hanqiao was the name of his old friend.
Someone built a courtyard under her name to remember her.
The article vaguely mentioned that the fire in Hanqiao courtyard was her doing.
However, at that time, there were rumours that the fire in Han manor was an accident.
After half an hour, Old Master Han suddenly said, “Forget it.”
With that, he turned around and left.
When he passed by the man in the white suit, he turned his head and looked at him suspiciously.
After Old Master Han returned to the front hall, Han Xiao and Qin Shu left too.
The rest of the people dealt with it casually because Grandfather Han had not spoken yet.
In the front hall.
Grandfather Han sat on the main seat with a calm expression. Perhaps because of what had happened just now, his gaze was not as sharp as before.
Grandfather Han’s gaze turned to the man in the white suit. Because he did not know his name, he simply did not address him.
“It’s just a coincidence. Do you think I’ll believe you just because of that?”
Qin Shu chuckled.
At this moment, a pitch-black cat ran in from outside the door. Its speed was agile. In the blink of an eye, it jumped onto the man in the white suit.
The man lowered his eyes and raised his hand to gently stroke the Black Cat’s head. His posture was lazy and calm.
Han Xiao saw the black cat and felt that it was very similar to Qin Shu’s pet cat. It was exactly the same.
What was going on?
When Old Man Han saw the cat in the man’s arms, he was stunned.
The cat’s entire body was pitch black and its fur was shiny. Its dark green eyes were looking down at them with a hint of laziness.
It was like a king looking down at them indifferently.
It surprised the old man.
A cat could show such a gaze?
It made him think of the purple-eyed youth who could predict on the star observation platform. He was holding a cat in his arms.
Although he was standing far away that time, he could see the cat very clearly.
Its fur was pitch-black, and its pair of dark green eyes looked especially awe-inspiring in the darkness of the night.
It mainly came from the owner of the cat.
The owner’s aura suppressed everyone there, mainly because they were afraid of his power of prophecy.
Qin Shu gently stroked President Ba with one hand, while President Ba obediently stayed on her lap. The corners of her eyes raised slightly. “Qi Hua will have snow today.”
The man’s voice was faint, like a lightly plucked string.. It could easily provoke a man’s nerves.
