My Youth Began With Him

Pinching his fingers to calculate, the old man slowly revealed, “Don’t worry, not only will you have a child, you will have more than one.”

“Uh… more than one?” Did he mean twins, triplets, or even more?

No way…

She was either not going to have any, or she was having many at once. What kind of joke was that?

“You are someone who will have many children. Don’t worry. Be patient and it will happen soon.”

The old man had told Huo Mian a lot. He wasn’t usually so talkative.

“Thank you, Elder.” Huo Mian nodded as a sign of appreciation.

“You don’t need to thank me. Do you have any other questions?”

“No, I don’t.” Huo Mian didn’t want to be too greedy. Even if the fortune teller was accurate, she didn’t want to know more.

How boring would it be if someone told you everything that would happen in your life…

How would you be surprised? The most interesting part of life, after all, was the fact that you never know what’s about to happen tomorrow.

So, Huo Mian decided to only ask her most urgent questions. Other questions were unnecessary.

“Alright, please tell the next person to come in.”

“Elder, how much money should I pay you?” Huo Mian took out her wallet from her purse, ready to pay the fortune teller money.

“One yuan.”

“One yuan?” Huo Mian was more than surprised.

“I tell fortunes to help others, not to earn money. Please don’t be surprised. One yuan is enough. If I told fortunes for free, the heavens would condemn me.”

“No, that’s not right, one yuan is too little, it’s disrespectful.” Huo Mian felt awkward.

She took ten 100 yuan bills from her wallet and handed them over, but the elder shook his head stubbornly…

“I said no. Give me one yuan.”

Sensing the elder getting angry, Huo Mian knew that she had offended him…

She fumbled through her purse for change, taking out a one-yuan bill and placing it onto the table.

The old man reached out his hand and felt the bill. After making sure that it really was a one-yuan bill, he nodded his head in satisfaction.

Huo Mian put her hands together and sincerely bowed down to the old man…

“Thank you, Elder.”

She had never gotten her fortune told before. This was a first, and the fortune teller was truly a master.

“You’re welcome. Goodbye.”

The old man waved his hand, gesturing for Huo Mian to leave…

As Huo Mian walked out, the old man sighed, “Poor child… what a tumultuous life.”

When she came out, Mrs. Qin immediately walked up to her and held her hands.

“How was it, Mian? What did the elder say?”

“The elder said… I will have a child. I will actually have more than one,” Huo Mian replied, feeling a little shy.

“Oh? Twins? Or even more? Oh my goodness, that is fantastic!” Mrs. Qin was ecstatic.

Mrs. Qin trusted the elder’s words completely because her friends were living proof of his accuracy.

She knew that the elder’s predictions were indisputable. The Qin Family would have many successors.

“Let’s go, Mom’s treating you to a feast.”

“Mom… it’s alright… You’ve already accompanied me for an entire morning.” Huo Mian felt embarrassed that her mother-in-law was running around so much for her sake.

After all, she was an elderly woman.

“It’s not a problem! What are you talking about, we’re family. Let’s go.”

With that, Mrs. Qin took Huo Mian’s hand and they got in her Bentley.

They arrived at a five-star hotel and went up to its top-floor restaurant.

Mrs. Qin ordered Huo Mian an Australian lobster, cubilose, sea cucumber, and abalone.

The meal cost more than 20,000 yuan in total…

Huo Mian felt bad for all the money spent, but her mother-in-law felt generous since her daughter-in-law had brought back such great news from the fortune telling session.

To Huo Mian and Mrs. Qin, it was fantastic news.

While they ate, Mrs.Qin asked Huo Mian, “Have you told Chu about this?”
