155: Chapter 153: The Noble Helper 155: Chapter 153: The Noble Helper “As the ship sails with the wind, heaven also lends a gust; without exertion, one goes freely, carrying prosperity widely,”
From the eighth Bagua, the deciphering of Bi Gua, Chen Hai slightly closed his eyes and silently recited it several times.
Soon, some chaotic information related to the divination he conducted appeared in his mind.
When Chen Hai opened his eyes again, his face was full of astonishment.
“Mr.
Chen, this divination you did for me, what is the result?” Miss Dong, observing Chen Hai’s expression, asked curiously.
“This is the first time I’ve ever divined a supreme divination for someone!”
With a complex expression, Chen Hai looked at Miss Dong in front of him and after a brief pause, he spoke again, “Your future is immeasurable, and in terms of your career, you will achieve great success!”
“In the business circles of Yanhuang Country, you will definitely secure a spot.”
“When you achieve fame and success, your name will be revered by thousands, and countless people will see you as an idol…”
He roughly conveyed the information he had divined to Miss Dong.
Considering that future events might have unpredictable variables,
the result Chen Hai conveyed after divining was somewhat ambiguous; he only spoke about the general trend and did not mention any specific details.
“Mr.
Chen, the result you’re describing sounds a bit exaggerated; you’re not just trying to amuse me, right?”
“I’m nearly forty and still just a junior sales manager.”
“Even if my career improves in the future, it surely can’t reach the level of widespread fame you mentioned, can it?”
With a peculiar expression, Miss Dong covered her mouth and finally couldn’t hold back—she burst out laughing.
“Whether the divination I performed is true will be known in the future.”
Without clearly agreeing or disagreeing, Chen Hai smiled lightly.
He casually took a piece of notepad paper from Li Dajiang’s desk and wrote down his pager number on it.
“Miss Dong, divining for a future business magnate like you and doing it for free would really be underselling myself!”
“Keep my contact information safe.
When you really achieve fame and success, don’t forget to directly pay me the fee for this divination!”
After handing the note to Miss Dong,
Chen Hai thought for a moment and then added, “One last tip.”
“Your career hasn’t taken off primarily because you haven’t yet met the influential person destined for you.”
“It’s only when you genuinely meet this influential person one day that you will truly soar…”
Having said this, Chen Hai stopped speaking, silently took a pen, and wrote a large ‘Zhu’ character on the notepad paper in front of him.
After doing all this, he quietly closed his eyes and spoke no more.
“Mr.
Chen, no, it should be Master Chen, I’ve remembered your advice!
If I ever reach the day of achieving fame and success, I will never forget the kindness shown in your guidance.”
“As for the fee, everything is negotiable, and whatever you desire, as long as I can afford it then, I absolutely will not be stingy!”
Seeing Chen Hai’s genuine demeanor, Miss Dong, still skeptical about his earlier words, nevertheless nodded her head and made a promise.
Divination and fortune-telling are best left succinct; revealing too much can sometimes be detrimental.
“Master Chen, it’s getting late, I will take my leave now.”
“The air conditioner installation is done, could you please mention it to President Li?”
Checking the time, it was already nearly eight in the evening.
Miss Dong glanced again at Chen Hai, who was resting with his eyes closed, seemingly unwilling to say more.
Sensing the situation, she greeted Chen Hai and then left the office.
After a busy day, on her way back to her rented apartment, Miss Dong found herself thinking about the divination Chen Hai had performed for her again.
“It’s better to believe in divination than to dismiss it entirely.”
“That Master Chen Hai may be young, but seeing how respectfully President Li from Huangxin Shoes behaves around him, this Master Chen must really have some genuine skills!”
“I had just met him and we were strangers, yet he did the divination for me without any prior arrangement, simply doing it as the opportunity arose.”
“If he were to trick me or deceive me in the divination, it doesn’t seem like it would benefit him at all.”
“Thinking about it, could the things Master Chen told me really be the result of his divination?”
“Could the future me really become as he said, the center of attention, admired by thousands, and become one of the top tycoons in the business world?”
…
As her thoughts raced, the more Miss Dong pondered, the more she felt that the divination Chen Hai had performed for her could genuinely be credible.
Walking on the bustling streets, the thought that she might actually be so amazing in the future made her walk with her head held high and her steps felt much lighter.
“Right, Master Chen mentioned that for me to soar high, I still need to meet that destined noble person, right?”
“Speaking of the noble person, he specially wrote the character ‘Zhu’.”
“Was he hinting that my noble person’s surname is Zhu?”
Walking a bit further, this question suddenly dawned on Miss Dong.
She began to recall the people she knew with the surname Zhu in Haizhu City.
“Could it be Zhu, the neighbor who rents the room next to mine and repairs bicycles at a nearby stall?”
“Lately, whenever he sees me, he either wants to invite me to dinner or ask me to a movie.”
“He’s a single man, quite honest and decent.”
“I understand his intentions, but I’ve been all caught up in my career and haven’t considered anything else.”
“Maybe the next time he asks me out to a movie, I should give him a chance!”
“What if he is the noble person destined for me …”
Thinking such thoughts, at nearly forty, Miss Dong actually blushed slightly.
Lost in her wild thoughts, she inadvertently reached the vicinity of her rented apartment.
Not far away, at neighbor Zhu’s stall, he was still busy with his upper body bare and covered in grease, not yet finished for the day.
“Miss Dong, got off work?
Are you free tonight?
After I finish with this bike, let’s go watch a movie together?”
Upon seeing Miss Dong, Zhu’s eyes lit up.
Setting down his work, he scurried over, all eagerness, and sprinted up to Miss Dong to extend his invitation.
“Um!” Originally planning to refuse outright, Miss Dong hesitated at the thought of the destined noble person and, after a slight pause, nodded and softly agreed.
