Chapter 198: [198] I never joke with strangers_1
 

Tang Feng glanced at the woman’s neckline, which was at constant risk of revealing too much, then coughed.

Not only middle-aged men like saucy things.

Young men in the prime of their lives are just the same.

“You are…?”

“I am Mr. Xi’s secretary, my name is Lu Yuzhu.” The woman’s voice was very charming, as if every word contained a seduction.

“Miss Lu, what would you like to know?” Tang Feng had already recovered from her charm and asked with curiosity.

“That depends on what you’re good at predicting, I’m fine with anything.” Lu Yuzhu played with her hair, appearing very easygoing.

“How about your career?”

“No need to predict my career, Mr. Xi leads well, and I think my career is going smoothly.” While answering, the woman didn’t forget to flatter her boss.

“Then, how about your family?”

“My family is harmonious, my parents love each other, and my grandparents are also very healthy, so we don’t need to predict that either, do we?” Lu Yuzhu shook her head again.

“So, what exactly do you want to know?”

“I’m fine with anything.”

“…”

Tang Feng was annoyed, “Miss Lu, are you playing with me?”

Lu Yuzhu covered her mouth and giggled, “Just joking with you, you have no sense of humor at all.”

“I never joke with strangers,” Tang Feng said coldly, somewhat aloof.

“Are you mad now? Fine, fine, just help me predict my financial fortune then.” Lu Yuzhu thought he lacked charm and decided to be more serious.

Tang Feng pretended to calculate by pinching his fingers, then after a moment he began to speak, “Miss Lu, your financial fortune is flourishing, and as long as there are no unexpected changes, it can last for a very long time.”

“Hahaha, Mr. Tang is really humorous. I’m just a little secretary, where would my wealth come from? Seems like your prediction is not accurate, maybe it’s enough to deceive young girls?” Lu Yuzhu said jokingly, with a hint of mockery.

The people at the table nodded silently, clearly agreeing with her.

She was just a secretary, how much could her salary be? How could “financial fortune flourishing” be an accurate description?

They were initially quite interested in Tang Feng, but now felt deeply disappointed.

Zhou Kai also frowned, contemplating something.

Zhou Bingrui felt the atmosphere getting awkward and hastily jumped in, “Feng, what do you mean by ‘unexpected changes’?”

Tang Feng acted as if he hadn’t seen everyone’s expressions and explained leisurely, “As long as Miss Lu stays low-key and avoids provoking people she shouldn’t, there won’t be any unexpected changes.”

“Otherwise, there will be a significant change.”

Bingrui thought to himself that this “person one shouldn’t provoke” must surely mean Tang Feng himself.

But he only thought about it and didn’t voice it out loud.

“Hahaha, Tang Feng is not very good at predicting financial fortune, Miss Lu, you should ask about something else,” Zhou Bingrui played peacemaker, not wanting the situation to become too awkward.

A mischievous smirk flashed in Lu Yuzhu’s eyes, “Sure, then let’s predict something else. About my love life. When does Mr. Tang think I’ll get a boyfriend?”

Once again, all eyes were on Tang Feng to hear his response.

“Do you want to hear the truth or a lie?” Tang Feng didn’t answer right away, but instead, asked back.

“Of course the truth. Who wants to hear a lie?” Lu Yuzhu laughed again, enchanting the middle-aged men around her to distraction.

“Well then, the truth,” Tang Feng fixed his gaze on her as if trying to see into her soul, “You already have a stable relationship, and it has been ongoing for a while.”

Lu Yuzhu’s face slightly changed, and she instinctively glanced at Xi Yongchang next to her, “What nonsense are you talking about?”

“I’m single right now. Your prediction is completely off. You’re not some street swindler, are you?”

Tang Feng didn’t say anything more, just quietly sipped his drink.

At that moment, Xi Yongchang smiled and turned to Zhou Kai, “Old Zhou, it seems the fortune-teller that Rui brought isn’t reliable. You should listen to me, go see Mr. Niu, and I guarantee you won’t be disappointed.”

Zhou Kai frowned and looked at Xi Yongchang, then at Tang Feng, unable to make up his mind for a moment.

“Wait a minute.”

Seeing the turn of events, Zhou Bingrui hastily stood up, “I’ve seen Feng’s Physiognomy Skill with my own eyes, and it’s nothing short of miraculous. He would never spout nonsense.”

Xi Yongchang looked at him with a smiling face, “Rui, you’re still too young to understand the tricks of some swindlers.”

“Perhaps he conspired with someone and gave you a performance?”

“Impossible, that other person is my brother. He had a problem at home that day, and it was Tang Feng who helped him resolve the disaster,” Bingrui blurted out the incident of Tang Feng helping Sun Qiuyang resolve a crisis at home in his haste.

After hearing this, everyone’s face was full of shock.

If Tang Feng really could predict the Sun family’s misfortune in advance, then this Physiognomy Skill was truly magical.

“Rui, that could have just been a fluke. You saw it yourself just now, his two predictions for Mrs. Lu were not at all accurate. It’s clear that he lacks skill and can’t be trusted,” Xi Yongchang said, maintaining his smile and an air of open-mindedness and candor.

Zhou Bingrui couldn’t reason with him and turned to Tang Feng, “Feng, say something.”

Tang Feng felt moved by Bingrui’s consistent defense of him.

He slowly put down his glass and looked straight at Xi Yongchang, “There are some things I really don’t want to spell out too clearly, otherwise some people’s face might not be saved.”

Although he didn’t mention any names, his eyes were fixed on Xi Yongchang, and even a fool would know who “some people” referred to.

Everyone looked at Xi Yongchang with strange expressions.

Xi Yongchang’s smile vanished instantly, and he looked coldly at Tang Feng, “You don’t need to worry about anyone’s face. Whatever you’ve calculated, say it clearly so as not to cause misunderstandings.”

“Do you really want me to say it?” Tang Feng asked with a barely there smile at the corner of his mouth.

“Say it!” Xi Yongchang ordered.

Tang Feng shook his head and sighed, “If that’s the case, then I’ll make it clear.”
