Chapter 1842: Does That Sound Like a Life of Fortune to You?

Old Mrs. Shen’s words were very straightforward, and as she spoke, she kept her eyes on Shen Longyue with a noticeably upset expression on her face.

Ye Qianqian felt very awkward.

She had heard Ye Youyou mention before that this old lady could be very heartless with her words and actions if she didn’t like a person.

Back when Old Mrs. Shen was enamored with Yu Lili, Ye Qianqian wasn’t able to witness the old lady’s peculiarities, but now… Ye Qianqian had experienced it for herself and now finally understood what Ye Youyou meant.

But what took Ye Qianqian by surprise the most was the reveal of Shen Zhilie’s dating history. In the past, when Shen Zhilie told her his dating experience was limited, she never believed him. Now, upon hearing the old lady’s words, Ye Qianqian couldn’t help sneaking a look at Shen Zhilie.

“How can you curse someone like that? Given the way you’re cursing her with your words, even a healthy person would turn ill!” Shen Zhilie was infuriated. “She’s never had any health issue to begin with. Ye Qianqian’s always been healthy, and now you’re cursing her to die at twenty-eight? How can you behave this way?”

“Zhilie, it’s not like I want to! I know it’s rare that you’ve fallen so hard for a girl, but I’m just playing it safe here!”

Shen Zhilie pressed his lips into a thin line and refused to say another word. He stood up and grabbed Ye Qianqian by her hand.

Old Mrs. Shen panicked when she saw his actions and yelled, “Where are you going?”

“To a fortune teller. Let’s see if you’re really as gifted as you say you are!” Shen Zhilie pulled Ye Qianqian along and walked away from the dining table.

Old Mrs. Shen scoffed and retorted, “Why are you going to rely on an outsider at such a time? I’ve already verified it with an expert that I know!”

“That expert of yours has never met my missus! He’s just making his calls based on everything you say!” Shen Zhilie was infuriated. “I think she’s great! She even brought you gifts and treated you so well! How can you speak so horribly of her?”

“What do you mean by that? I wouldn’t have said it if I hadn’t indeed arrived at such a divination!”

“Why didn’t you ever read Yu Lili’s palm?”

“Lili’s face said it all. One look and I could tell what she was in for!”

“Well, when Qianqian first entered, you said she had a face of fortune, too!”

“It is indeed a face of fortune, but she possesses a sign of a short life, too!” Old Mrs. Shen huffed with righteous indignation. “I refuse to allow you to marry a woman who’s destined for a short life! You stubborn mule! If she really dies…”

“God forbid!” Shen Zhilie was infuriated. “Grandma! You call yourself half a celestial! Don’t you know how taboo it is for an elder to curse someone younger this way?”

Old Mrs. Shen had nothing to say in defense.

“So, Grandma.” Ye Qianqian suddenly spoke up and looked at Old Mrs. Shen. “What you mean to say is that my life was destined for fortune but also destined to be short, is that it?”

“According to what I can tell, yes. That was the conclusion I got from my friend, too!” Old Mrs. Shen looked at Ye Qianqian with pity in her eyes. “It’s not that I don’t like you, but my dear Zhilie…”

“Well, Grandma, I have something to tell you.” Ye Qianqian looked the old lady in the eye and enunciated her words clearly as she said, “My family is very poor, and we stay in a small town. My great-grandfather was a landowner, but when the war started, my grandfather joined the army. My father sold livestock for a living and was childhood sweethearts with my mother. Later on, my mother, who is Ye Tian, bemoaned the poverty of the family and ran away with a man from the capital, taking my little sister along with her. From that day onward, I needed financial help with even the most basic things, like school fees. Does that sound like a life of fortune to you?”
