She was still so kind, willing to bear all the hardships herself and not wanting to trouble others.
As long as she asked, no matter how difficult, he would risk his life to help her.
âAlright, just take good care of yourself, and bring more bodyguards with you when you go out. Those people can be terrifying when they go mad,â Charles Gao carefully reminded her.
âOkay, I know. I have something to take care of now, so Iâll hang up. Iâll treat you to dinner when we have time.â
After hanging up the phone, Charles sighed.
The nanny outside the door said, âYoung Master, Madam is looking for you.â
Charles frowned, âAunt?â
As Charles went downstairs, his aunt, Yang Yan, was chatting with his mother, Guo Han.
âIâve heard from Senior Gao that my brother wants Jia Jia to marry the Young Master of the Yang family. My cousin is good friends with Mrs. Yang, and I had her make some inquiries. This Young Master Yang has been studying abroad and only recently returned. Heâs handsome and talented, so if Jia Jia marries him, it would be a good match. Sister-in-law, you can rest assured.â
Yang Yanâs smile was strained. She was very clear about the happiness or unhappiness of her own marriage, which was a result of a business alliance, so she didnât want her daughter to go down the same path.
Upon seeing Charles, Yang Yan immediately put on a cheerful face: âCharles, I came here today to ask you for a favor.â
Charles was a bit curious as to what this haughty aunt of his could need from him.
Guo Han smiled, âHeâs just a kid, what can he help you with? If you really have
any problems, you should wait for Grandpa Gao to come back, and weâll solve them together.â
Yang Yan shook her head, âActually, only Charles can help me with this.â
âPlease tell me, Aunt. I will not hesitate to help if I can.â
Yang Yan coughed, âItâs a bit embarrassing to say, but I heard you have a good relationship with Ms. Ming Jing from the Zhu family?â
Charles was taken aback, never expecting her to inquire about Ming Jing. Was the favor she needed related to Ming Jing? Charlesâ attitude turned serious and attentive.
âMing Jing and I are classmates. Why do you ask about her, Aunt?â
Yang Yan sighed, âYouâve probably heard about the situations with Madam Li and Madam Ye. Ms. Zhu seems to be rather skilled, so I asked her to help me with Jia Jiaâs marriage fortune last time. However, it seems there were some issues. Those Masters always have their quirks. Iâve been to the Zhu household several times, but I couldnât get a chance to see her. Jia Jiaâs issue canât be delayed any longer, so I thought, since you have a good relationship with Ms. Zhu, could you perhaps mediateâ¦?â
Charles never expected his aunt would come to him seeking help to find Ming Jing to calculate Jia Jiaâs marriage fortuneâ¦what a bizarre development.
âI heard about Ms. Zhuâs incident as well. I thought it was just a rumor, but it turned out to be true. Is she really that amazing?â Guo Han asked with half-skepticism.
Yang Yan nodded, âIâve seen the incidents with Madam Li and Madam Ye with my own eyes. Itâs better to believe that thereâs something to it rather than dismiss it outright, especially since it concerns Jia Jiaâs happiness.â
âI feel that sheâs still too young, though. Could it be a coincidence? Has everyone just mythologized her? I heard that thereâs a Hanshan Temple south of the Cold Mountain, and Master Jue Ming in the temple is a highly accomplished monk. Many people go to him for marriage fortunes. Why not try your luck with Master Jue Ming?â
Yang Yan shook her head, âI choose to believe in Ms. Zhu.â
âBut the Zhus are facing a lawsuit now and are on the brink of bankruptcy. Ms. Zhu must be at her witâs end. She probably doesnât have time for anything else.â
Actually, she wanted to say, if Ms. Zhu is really that amazing, could she have predicted the impending disaster for the Zhu family?
After all, gods are made by humans.
Seeking a 16-year-old girl to calculate marriage fortunes; His wife must be in a crazed frenzy for a miracle cure.
Charles pondered, âAuntie, itâs not that I donât want to help you, but Ming Jing and I are not close to that extent. I called her earlier when I heard about the situation with the Zhus, but her phone has been switched off ever since. Iâm sorry, but Iâm unable to help you.â
After leaving Charlesâ house, Yang Yan hesitated for a long time before instructing her driver, âGo to Hanshan Temple.â
âDo you think your sister-in-law is funny? She actually believes a little girlâs words. The girl should have been able to predict her familyâs impending bankruptcy, right?â Guo Han mocked, shaking her head.
Charles frowned, âMom, Auntie wouldnât say this without a good reason.â
Guo Han looked at him suspiciously before suddenly turning solemn. âYouâre not in love with Ms. Zhu, are you?â
Charlesâ face flushed red.
âI didnât expect to hit it right on the spot. Let me tell you, the Zhu family is going through a major crisis, and theyâre struggling to save themselves. Donât get involved in this muddy water, or else youâll get yourself dirty. Do you understand?â Guo Han emphasized..
