Chapter 495: Chapter 498: Ominous Divination_1

"A pianist’s wife.." Yang Fei looks forward, a glimmer of confusion in her eyes.

On seeing this, Xia Zihan paused, asking, "What’s wrong? Wasn’t marrying a pianist your dream when you were young? Besides, Sima Bing is really good. He took up the challenge of the Chopin International Piano Competition just because of something you said, and incredibly, he won. Such passionate, sincere, action-driven, and talented men are hard to find. Fei, you should seize the opportunity."

Yang Fei continued to remain silent for a while. Suddenly, she looked at Xia Zihan and asked out of the blue, "Zihan, why did you suddenly fall for Gangzi?"

Xia Zihan’s face turned beet red, she stammered, "I, I...I’ll go first."

After saying that, Xia Zihan opened the car door and ran off in a whirlwind.

"Ah, she ran away."

Yang Fei gathered herself, looking towards the music-themed bar. Through the glass wall, she could see what was happening inside.

She leaned on the steering wheel, turning to look at Yang Gang, who was sitting by the window. Her eyes flickered, as she seemed lost in thought.

A moment later, she sighed, started the car, and left.

The bar.

A short while after Yang Fei and Xia Zihan left, Qin Lang also left, looking dejected.

Of the original five attendees, only Yang Gang and his ex-fiancée Tong Xin were left.

"That guy seems a bit pitiful." Yang Gang commented, looking at Qin Lang’s retreating figure.

Tong Xin took another sip of her grape juice before saying, "There’s no helping it. He likes Yang Fei. Even though Qin Lang is my cousin and I don’t want to discourage him, but trying to win Yang Fei just because he has studied abroad is too arrogant, too shallow, and too overconfident."

Yang Gang raised an eyebrow, "Wow, that’s quite a blow, isn’t it?"

Tong Xin paused, then continued, "Out of all us girls, Yang Fei has the fewest suitors, do you know why?"

"Why?"

Tong Xin laughed, "Because she’s too outstanding. Most admirers feel intimidated by her, just like a snow lotus that can only be admired from a distance. But every young man who dares to pursue Yang Fei is exceptional. People like Huang Tianlin only rank at the bottom, while my cousin Qin Lang doesn’t even make the cut."

Yang Gang broke out in a cold sweat, "Isn’t that a bit of an exaggeration?

"Not at all." Tong Xin took another sip of her grape juice and gave a small smile, "I have a feeling."

Yang Gang glanced at Tong Xin, who had been continuously drinking grape juice since earlier. Although the alcohol content in grape juice is extremely low, it still contained some alcohol.

At this moment, Tong Xin’s face had turned flush, her eyes starting to waver.

"Hey, Tong Xin, I think you’re drunk again. Let me send you home," Yang Gang hurriedly said.

"Hmm, okay, thank you," Tong Xin slurred.

Yang Gang was taken aback, "You trust me that easily? Are you not afraid that I’d do something while you’re drunk?"

"You, don’t have the guts," Tong Xin mumbled, her eyes almost shut.

Her alcohol tolerance was indeed interesting, feeling perfectly lucid one moment and completely drunk the next.

Yang Gang was depressed by Tong Xin’s comment.

"Damn, do I look that cowardly to you?"

Collecting himself, he picked up Tong Xin and left the bar.

The bill had been already paid by Qin Lang in advance.

Driving Tong Xin’s sports car, he dropped her off in front of the Tong family villa.

Tong Jun and Chen Ruo came out together.

"Gangzi, thank you for your trouble," Chen Ruo said softly while helping a thoroughly drunk Tong Xin out of the car.

"It’s no trouble. I may have broken off the engagement with Tong Xin, but we’re still friends. A little favor like this is nothing," Yang Gang replied with a smile.

While stepping on Tong Jun’s foot, Chen Ruo added, "He brought your beloved daughter back home, and you can’t even muster a word of thanks."

Tong Jun pursed his lips, refusing to say a word.

With a bitter smile, Chen Ruo said, "He’s just stubborn, Gangzi. Don’t mind him."

"It’s okay, our family member is even more stubborn. I’ve gotten used to it. Speaking of which, Uncle Tong, being tsundere at your age isn’t good for your health," Yang Gang grinned.

Tong Jun was enraged, "You, you brat, how dare you call me tsundere!!"

Chen Ruo looked at him disapprovingly, "Ah, you’re such an unlovable old man. How did I ever fall for you back in the day? Yang Lin was far more charming than you back then."

"Haha, Aunt Ruo, don’t add fuel to the fire." Taking a pause, Yang Gang added with a laugh, "I’ll be taking my leave then."

"Wait a minute." Tong Jun suddenly said.

Yang Gang sighed, "Uncle Tong, I swear I didn’t do anything to your daughter."

"It’s late, and the streets of Hangcheng aren’t safe at night. I’ll drive you home," Tong Jun declared flatly.

"Uh, thank you."

The car ride was silent, and Yang Gang got out of the car just as they were close to the Yang’s villa.

Tong Jun turned the car around to go back. He drove for a few meters, then stopped again. Rolling down the car window, he said, "Thank you for sending Tong Xin home."

Then, the window was rolled up again and the car drove off, disappearing from sight.

Yang Gang smiled to himself and returned to the Yang’s villa.

Upon entering the living room, he saw Yang Fei, who had come home and was now massaging the old lady’s back.

"Granny, you’re still up?" Yang Gang asked while changing into his slippers.

The old lady didn’t say anything.

""What’s the matter, Granny? Did someone upset you?" Yang Gang quickly made his way over and asked.

The old lady glared at Yang Gang, "Gangzi, Xiaorou hasn’t been to our house for a long time. Did you fight with Xiaorou?"

Yang Gang broke out in a cold sweat, "Not at all."

"Call Xiaorou and ask her to come over then, tell her that I miss her," commanded the old lady.

With a twitch in the corner of his mouth, Yang Gang protested, "But Granny, it’s so late. It’s dangerous for Xiaorou to come over by herself."

"Then go and pick her up," the old woman ordered.

Yang Gang was at a loss: ...

What’s going on? It was well-known that the old lady had a soft spot for Xiaorou, but this was the first time she wanted to see Xiaorou so urgently.

He pulled Yang Fei to the side and lowered his voice, "Fei, what’s wrong with Granny? Why does she suddenly want to see Xiaorou?"

"Well, Granny said that she visited the temple today to offer incense and get a fortune told. The fortune stated that the woman she desired to become her granddaughter-in-law might suffer a mishap. You know Granny’s favorite prospective granddaughter-in-law is Xiaorou...hey, Gangzi are you listening?"

Yang Gang shook his head to clear it.

His expression turned serious: "I got it. I’m going to call Xiaorou right now."

The call was connected right away.

"Xiaorou, where are you now?"

"Oh, I’m in Shencheng. I’m with Gu Ran. We came to Shencheng to meet a client," Xiaorou answered.

Yang Gang groaned, "You’re swamped at work, aren’t you? Wait."

Recalling the events at the bar, he suddenly thought of something. His voice filled with apprehension, "Xiaorou, Gu Ran didn’t take you to meet Gu Jiang, did he!"
