Mind reading saves the whole family; I'm firmly in the role of a charlatan.

Chapter 105 The Fist is Hard Again

Jiang Younian's matter was still unresolved, and it couldn't be kept secret. The Jiang family didn't intend to hide it either, so they simply told Du's mother about it.

Upon hearing this, Du's mother's face changed: "Such a big thing, and no one told me?"

Jiang Wentao looked embarrassed: "At first I didn't think it would be this serious. Later I panicked and couldn't think of what to do."

Du's mother didn't really want to blame anyone; the most important thing now was that everyone was safe.

"Qingyun, go call Dean Qiao first and ask Junyan and Hexuan to help you entertain the guests. Changbin, take this back to Younian right now. Brother, you stay here and wait for news. After Qingyun discusses the transfer with Dean Qiao, we'll think about how to transfer Younian to S City as soon as possible."

This is when you can see who usually makes the decisions at home.

At Du's mother's command, the three grown men went about their business without daring to voice any objections.

Du Anrao watched in awe, and was planning to go upstairs later to try to contact her old master whom she hadn't heard from in a long time.

If Master really sent her that string of five-emperor coins because he had foreseen what would happen to his second cousin, then he must have known how to save her.

"Um, An'an, right? I'm your fourth aunt."

Du Anrao looked up when she heard the sound and found that Ruan Xiuru had come up to her at some point and was greeting her with a completely different enthusiasm than before. Her well-maintained face was all wrinkled from smiling.

Another slightly younger middle-aged woman, who was right behind Ruan Xiuru, also stepped forward and said with a smile, "I am your fifth aunt."

"Hello, Fourth Auntie. Hello, Fifth Auntie."

"I've heard that you grew up in a Taoist temple and are skilled in traditional Chinese medicine. Could you also tell my fortune?"

Du Anrao blinked in surprise: "That's possible, but what do you want to be considered?"

"Let's talk about my son's marriage prospects." Ruan Xiuru feigned a troubled expression. "You know, my son is almost thirty and I've never seen him date anyone, and he doesn't even have a close female friend. It's gotten to the point that my girlfriends are secretly asking me if he has some kind of hidden illness."

"Pfft..." Du Anrao almost choked on the juice.

Is it possible that your son already has someone he loves? That's why he's been so fickle, never settling down with anyone. You know, remaining chaste for the female lead is one of the essential qualities of every man who upholds traditional virtues. Otherwise, it wouldn't be a "chasing-after-his-wife" scenario, but rather being directly pushed into the crematorium and burned to ashes.

Ruan Xiuru's expression stiffened slightly. What about the basic manners of male and female leads? What about a crematorium?

Aunt Si, who doesn't usually watch short videos to pass the time, still can't keep up with the way young people think, but she's not stupid. Considering the context and her son's situation, she roughly guessed what Du Anrao meant.

Du Anrao cleared his throat and said, "Marriage is a matter of destiny, and cannot be forced. I observe that you, Fourth Aunt, have a bright forehead, a full bridge of the nose, a square jaw, and a long philtrum, indicating that you have excellent prospects for having children. However..."

"only……"

"Judging from your appearance, you should have had a grandson a long time ago."

"What?" Ruan Xiuru showed just the right amount of shock, but quickly calmed down. "I do have a three-year-old grandson, but he's not my son's child, he's my daughter's."

"Daughter?" Du Anrao frowned and pondered for a moment. "If I remember correctly, Fourth Aunt, your daughter is an adopted daughter, right?"

"She is an adopted daughter."

“But judging from your appearance, this grandson is clearly related to you by blood.” Ruan Xiuru exclaimed, then exaggeratedly covered her mouth with her hand: “You mean, my son got a girlfriend without my knowledge and even had a child with her?”

"If you were unaware of the child's existence, that would be true."

"But who could it be? I've been in contact with almost all the women around my son, and I've never seen him be particularly enthusiastic towards any of them."

"The person who is far away is right in front of you. Perhaps it is someone you overlooked from the beginning, which is why you didn't notice them? You should know that the reason why most people are blind to what is right under their noses is because many of the most unlikely things and the most unlikely people turn out to be the right answers."

I've practically given you a hint; if you still can't guess, don't blame me!

Ruan Xiuru: "..."

Isn't it just that they're both far away and right in front of her? They live under the same roof as everyone else. If it weren't for what happened today, she doesn't know how much longer she would have been kept in the dark.

Oh no, even without today's incident, she would have found out soon enough, but at the cost of her precious grandson's future health!

Thinking of this, Ruan Xiuru's fists hardened again, and she wanted to beat her son!

"Besides that, I can also tell from your face, Fourth Aunt, that your grandson is destined for a calamity, and if he can't avoid it, I'm afraid..."

Ruan Xiuru naturally knew what the calamity Du Anrao was referring to was. Although she had reminded her son to arrange for another blood transfusion for the child, she couldn't help but feel worried, fearing that avoiding a blood transfusion accident might lead to other problems elsewhere.

Hearing Du Anrao say that, his heart jumped into his throat.

Unexpectedly, Du Anrao stopped halfway through his sentence.

[Wait, why is Fourth Aunt's situation similar to when Director Gao's film crew had that accident? The dark clouds are gradually dissipating, and a faint purple light can be seen. Does this mean the child will overcome this calamity smoothly, with the help of a benefactor?]

Although Du Anrao was puzzled, he changed the subject and said, "Fourth Aunt, don't worry. Although the calamity is dangerous, there will surely be a benefactor to help you. You will definitely be able to turn bad luck into good and have a smooth and safe journey."

No sooner had she finished speaking than Ruan Xiuru's phone rang.

Answering the phone in front of the host of the banquet was undoubtedly somewhat impolite, but Ruan Xiuru was eager to know about the child's situation, and neither Du Anrao, the birthday celebrant, nor the Du family cared. Most of the guests around them immediately perked up their ears.

For a moment, the only sound in the huge lobby seemed to be Ruan Xiuru answering the phone.

"How is Leilei doing now? Is he alright? Okay, okay, let him stay in the hospital for one night for observation. We can go home after the doctor confirms he's alright tomorrow. I'll rush back after the banquet. Is he awake now? Let him talk to me on the phone."

Ruan Xiuru waited for a while, and when she heard the childish voice on the other end of the phone, her eyes immediately welled up with tears.

"Leilei, you stay in the hospital like a good boy. Grandma will come back later and bring you delicious food and little gifts. Okay, okay, Grandma will buy you whatever you want."

The grandmother and granddaughter exchanged a few more words before hanging up. Ruan Xiuru tried to compose herself and turned to hold Du Anrao's hand: "An'an, you were so right! Your cousin just called to say that Leilei got into a fight at kindergarten today and broke his head and was hospitalized. He has a rare blood type, but luckily there was a lady with the same blood type at the hospital who helped him, so he was saved from serious injury. It was a stroke of luck."

Du family members: Pfft...

Du Anrao: "???" Something felt off.
