Chapter 72 Reading Faces to Find Cause and Effect
"To suppress your family's fortune?"
Fatty Lin snorted and said, "I'm putting this out there, your son won't die anytime soon, whether it's three or five years, or ten or eight years!"
"Impossible! The doctor said my son has at most two years to live!" Wang Ying retorted.
"Under normal circumstances, one should only live for two years, but is that normal now?"
Fatty Lin sneered, "Do you know why I haven't given you a friendly look since you came in?"
"Why?" Wang Ying asked instinctively.
"Your son's forehead is dark gray with vertical lines hanging down like a needle; this is a sign that his life force has been forcibly drained!"
Fatty Lin pointed to the area between his eyebrows and said, "But your son is already like this, even his forehead has lost its luster, yet his temples are high, round, and bright. Is that normal?"
Hearing this, I understood.
In physiognomy, the Sun and Moon Corners are also known as the Parents Palace, located directly above the eyebrows.
Generally speaking, when we say someone is outstanding, we are referring to the two places: the Sun and the Moon Corner.
If a person is seriously ill and about to die, their overall fortune will decline. It won't be that their forehead is dark while their brow is bright.
Xiao Yuan's glabella was dull and had a hanging needle pattern, and his forehead was also covered in dust, but his sun and moon corners were bright and shiny, which was obviously wrong.
So as soon as he came in, Fatty Lin became suspicious.
Wang Ying remained silent.
"Just you wait and see. If everything goes smoothly for your man these next two years, he'll become addicted to it. He won't be willing to let your son die; he'll do everything he can to prolong his life and extract his fortune from him!"
"During this process, your son will suffer a fate worse than death!"
"In the end, when your son can't hold on any longer, your man won't let him go either. Instead, he'll make use of his body, just as you said, using it to suppress his bad luck and ward off the backlash!"
Fatty Lin stared at Wang Ying and said, word by word.
Wang Ying's lips turned pale, and she subconsciously gripped her phone tighter.
Just when I thought she was going to beg us for help, she suddenly pulled a card out of her bag and said, "There's 200,000 in here. The PIN is six ones. It's for this consultation fee!"
After saying that, she placed the card on the examination table, turned around and went to the study next door to help the woman, Mrs. Li, push her son out, and then took the elevator downstairs to leave.
Throughout the entire process, she didn't say another word to us.
"She's scared!"
I looked at the bank card on the table, exchanged a glance with Fatty Lin, and said, "She's afraid Jack Feng will use the same methods on her remaining son and daughter, so this son had to be sacrificed. Coming here this time is her last stand!"
"Um!"
Fatty Lin picked up the bank card, curled his lip, and said, "Damn it, these rich people are all ruthless!"
"Fatty, we've gotten ourselves into a lot of trouble with that Master Wang lately. I've heard he's very vengeful, so we need to have some backup plans!" I said after thinking for a moment.
"Go report to Third Master?" Fatty Lin immediately understood what I meant.
"Walk!"
I smiled, took out my phone, and said, "Let me call Third Master first and see if he has time!"
Unfortunately, Third Master didn't have time. He said he wasn't in Beijing and would be back the day after tomorrow. He said he would let us brothers know when he got back, and he even joked that he knew I had a girlfriend and wanted to give me a gift.
"Alright, it's good that you're not home. It'll give you a couple of days to rest!"
After putting down my phone, I said with a smile.
"What rest? Take your sister-in-law around the capital, buy her some clothes and cosmetics!" Fatty Lin glared and gestured towards Long Nier.
"Um!"
I didn't refuse.
Long Nier didn't have many clothes. When she came back from Hong Kong Island, I saw her luggage. There were only a few clothes in it, and they were all pretty much the same: either starched jeans or various plain-colored short-sleeved shirts.
The cotton-padded coat she's wearing now is an old model from several years ago.
"No need, brother, I need to go back to my hometown. I've already booked my ticket for tomorrow!" Long Nier refused.
"Are you going back to your hometown?"
I was a little surprised.
Even though she's gone, I don't have to worry about anyone bewitching me anymore, and I should be able to breathe a sigh of relief. But for some reason, I feel a little reluctant to let her go.
"What's wrong, are you reluctant to part with it?" Long Nier asked me with a half-smile.
"No, you can leave if you want, it's not like you're never coming back!" I said with a smile.
Long Nier's eyes flickered, and she said, "So, you're admitting our relationship!"
"When did I admit it?" I immediately denied it.
"Brother, you're just saying one thing and meaning another!" Long Nier walked up to me and tapped my chest.
"I don't understand what you're saying!" I turned and left.
"Brother, I've changed my mind again. I want to go out this afternoon. Can you take me to buy some children's clothes and some stationery? I want to take them back with me!" Long Nier called out to me.
If it were something else, I could refuse, but I can't refuse this.
Long Nier is a teacher at the elementary school in their town. It's called a town, but it's actually just a large village.
Few of the children attending school come from wealthy families.
"Crazy, I'll go with you. We'll use this money, and your sister-in-law can take the rest back and donate it to the school!" Fatty Lin pointed to the bank card Wang Ying had left behind.
"OK!"
I nodded.
Long Nier gave us two brothers a deep look and said, "Fat Brother, Brother, thank you!"
"We're all family, no need to thank me!" Fatty Lin said with a smile.
"Yes!" I echoed.
Long Ni'er's eyes flickered, and she said, "Brother, have you accepted me as family again?"
My smile froze; I'd been caught in their trap.
I spent the whole afternoon out shopping and ended up with several bags full of stuff.
Lin Pangzi and I tried to persuade Long Nier to mail the things over, but she refused and insisted on taking them back herself.
While we were shopping, I wanted to buy her some clothes, but she still refused.
The next morning, Fatty Lin and I took Long Nier to the train station.
She booked a train ticket, and not only that, it was a hard seat ticket.
Just like before, no matter how much Lin Pangzi and I tried to persuade her, she insisted on taking the hard seat back.
As we passed through the ticket gate, Long Nier suddenly turned around, pointed at me, and warned, "Brother, you're not allowed to go to Kongmei.com!"
After saying that, without waiting for my reply, she waved to me and Fatty Lin and disappeared into the crowd.
"You fatso, did you say something to Ni'er?"
As soon as Long Nier disappeared from sight, I immediately elbowed Fatty Lin.
"I didn't say that, don't fucking pin everything on me!" Fatty Lin firmly denied it.
"You're talking nonsense! If you hadn't asked me for my Kongmei.com account and password, how would Nier have known about this?"
I said.
Just then, my phone rang.
I took out my phone and checked; it was Aunt Xiao.
"Hey Xiaofeng, I'll introduce you to a job!"
When I answered the phone, the first sound I heard was the clatter of mahjong tiles, and then Aunt Xiao's voice.
"Sister Yu, what kind of work is it?" I asked.
"The Guan family came to me for help, saying that their little girl, Guan Qingcheng, has some problems and they want you to give her acupuncture!" Aunt Xiao said.
