Chapter 817: Chapter 817: Divination to Find Someone

Duan Jianchuan and Wen Zishu were standing on the balcony watching people for a while when they saw Fu Shiyan driving out.

Wen Zishu immediately asked, "Third Brother, where is he going?"

Duan Jianchuan frowned.

He hadn’t spoken yet.

Qing Yue chuckled, "Where else could he be going? Naturally, he’s off to see his sweetheart."

Duan Jianchuan’s face turned slightly cold, "Qing Yue, there are some things you shouldn’t think about. Those thoughts, you should have forgotten them long ago. Third Brother has almost repaid your family’s debt, and the path you’re on now is your own choice. No one ever forced you, so there’s no need to dwell on it."

Wen Zishu looked completely baffled, unable to understand.

Qing Yue’s expression turned indifferent, becoming more profound.

After a long time, he finally spoke.

"Indeed, there’s no need to dwell on it."

With that, Qing Yue turned and went downstairs, seemingly to rest.

Wen Zishu couldn’t understand what they were talking about. Watching Qing Yue leave, he reached out and grabbed Duan Jianchuan, who was about to leave as well. Staring at him, he asked, "Old Duan, tell me, are you and Third Brother hiding something from me?"

Duan Jianchuan looked at him, then at the hand on his arm, "Let go of me."

Wen Zishu lifted his head, "No! If you don’t tell me the truth, I won’t let go! If you’ve got the guts, hit me!"

Duan Jianchuan: "..."

What kind of rascal is this?

Duan Jianchuan furrowed his brow, unable to outwit Wen Zishu’s stubbornness. With a blank face, he said, "Qing Yue’s clan excels in divination."

Wen Zishu: "?? Divination, like fortune-telling?"

Duan Jianchuan slightly shook his head, "Not exactly. Their divination specializes in predicting the future. I heard that Third Brother once asked Qing Yue’s clan for help to predict the future, owing them a favor. So all these years, whatever Qing Yue was tinkering with, Third Brother never interfered and just let him be."

Wen Zishu was puzzled, "Third Brother had his future predicted? What for?"

Duan Jianchuan said in a deep voice, "I heard it was to find someone."

Wen Zishu: "Who?"

Duan Jianchuan shook his head, "I don’t know. That was years ago; who knows who he was looking for?"

Wen Zishu looked at Duan Jianchuan warily.

Duan Jianchuan frowned, "Why are you looking at me like that?"

Wen Zishu squinted his eyes and grabbed Duan Jianchuan’s arm, "Old Duan, you definitely know who Third Brother is looking for, don’t you?"

Duan Jianchuan was at a loss for words.

He rolled his eyes at Wen Zishu, "I really don’t know. I just heard that over the years, Qing Yue has been following Third Brother, trying to find out who that person is. Whenever he found someone suspicious, he would test them, and a few times it almost got deadly, but Third Brother managed to stop him. After all these years, he still hasn’t found the person. Do you think I would know?"

Wen Zishu gasped, "Almost got deadly? Really? Why is Qing Yue causing such a fuss?"

"I heard that in Qing Yue’s generation, it’s just him and a sister left. Something went wrong, and Qing Yue’s sister died after the divination," Duan Jianchuan said steadily. "She entrusted Qing Yue to Third Brother. Their family is not so strict about gender roles. Hasn’t Qing Yue always wanted to marry Third Brother?"

Wen Zishu’s eyes almost popped out, "Is that so? How come I didn’t know?"

Duan Jianchuan mocked, "You blockhead, what do you know?"

Wen Zishu laughed angrily, "Duan Dog, if you want to talk, talk. Keep up this mockery, and see if I don’t beat you up."

Duan Jianchuan looked him up and down, his eyes seeming to say, with your stature, it’s not clear who would beat whom.
