บท 244: Fortune Telling?

"Ahem… Actually, there is something…"

Ye Caitang avoided Qin Ruohan's eyes—that seemed to be able to see through people—in a panic. She changed the topic smoothly:

"Actually, I predicted this morning that your brother—Qin Jiuye—would be in danger."

"But I was afraid you won't believe me and think I'm a charlatan,"

"That's why I wanted Qin Jiuye to tutor me and avoid this calamity."

Qin Ruohan frowned and looked intently at Ye Caitang rather coldly.

"Are you telling the truth?"

"Yes, yes." Ye Caitang hurriedly nodded.

Qin Ruohan looked at Ye Caitang doubtfully and asked lightly,

"What evidence do you have to prove that what you said is true?"

Ye Caitang: "…"

After a moment of silence, Ye Caitang looked at Qin Ruohan and asked instead:

"Have you seen Qin Jiuye recently?"

"I think something must be amiss for someone as rambunctious as him to suddenly be so quiet."
