Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

This time round, Gao Qiao was utterly convinced by Ye Yao!

After Mr. Chen announced his new collaborator, Fatty Wang was unhappy and immediately stood up. “What’s going on? Did Gao Qiao make a higher offer? I offered 1.5 billion!” The price of this piece of land was 300 million yuan. If they wanted to get this piece of land, 800 million yuan would have been enough. But Fatty Wang actually paid 1.5 billion yuan?! He couldn’t get this piece of land even with 1.5 billion yuan?

As soon as Fatty Wang said that, the surrounding people sucked in a breath of cold air. 1.5 billion! Was Fatty Wang even planning to make money?

When Gao Qiao heard Fatty Wang’s words, he was extremely smug. He had only offered 400 million yuan, but he had won the bid. Wasn’t this a fantasy? However, given these things were all associated with Ye Yao, it was normal for it to be a fantasy.

“I’m not going to let you win this bid.” A crisp female voice sounded. Then, Ye Yao saw the beautiful Chen Chuchu getting onto the stage. She circled her arms around Mr. Chen’s arm and said with a sweet smile, “Dad, this Fatty Wang is especially shameless. He even harassed me earlier on and wanted to take advantage of me. We can’t hand the land over to such a person.”

Gao Qiao was dumbfounded. Chen Chuchu was actually Mr. Chen’s daughter?

When Fatty Wang saw that the woman he had just teased was actually Mr. Chen’s daughter, he was also stunned. No wonder the Chen family did not give him any face even after he offered such a high price. He was so angry that he pounded his chest and stomped his feet. He said fiercely to Gao Qiao, “This matter is not over!” Then, he stomped away angrily.

Mr. Chen held Chen Chuchu’s hand and walked over to Gao Qiao with a smile. “I just heard from Chuchu that you saved her, so I have to thank you. Chuchu is the apple of my eye. I couldn’t bear to let her be bullied at all since she was young. I didn’t expect that Fatty Wang had almost bullied her in my own territory.”

Chen Chuchu looked at Gao Qiao and smiled like a flower, with a hint of a girl’s shyness.

Ye Yao quietly leaned towards Huo Buyu and whispered, “I think Chen Chuchu has taken a fancy to Gao Qiao. I was the one who saved her just now, but she didn’t mention it at all. She only thanked Gao Qiao.” It was obvious to all what she was thinking.

Huo Buyu tugged Ye Yao behind him and said, “I have another gathering to attend. We need to go now.” With that, he hustled Ye Yao away. Gao Qiao had already achieved her goal of bringing Ye Yao here, so there was no need for her to stay.

On the way, Huo Buyu contemplated Ye Yao’s ability. If one supposed that her ability was Verbal Virtuosity, indeed, whatever she said was effective. However, what she said was mostly based on evidence. Just like today, Fatty Wang didn’t get that piece of land even with such a high bid, because he had offended Chen Chuchu. Gao Qiao, on the other hand, was able to get the land at such a ridiculous price because she had gained Chen Chuchu’s favor. Ye Yao didn’t seem to have anything to do with this. If Ye Yao wasn’t involved, this outcome would actually have been achieved. Hence, he couldn’t figure out if the foreshadowing and what happened later was the outcome of Ye Yao’s words or if Ye Yao was just acting with the flow of things in the first place. He had a

feeling that even without Ye Yao, today’s outcome would still have been achieved.

Seeing that Huo Buyu was silent and deep in thought, Ye Yao took the initiative to ask, “What are you thinking about?”

Huo Buyu stroked her head gently, his handsome face filled with affection. “I’m thinking about how you got your ability. What’s the basis?”

Ye Yao pouted in dissatisfaction. “I already said that it’s inherited from the family.” Her ancestors had the ability to predict the future as well!

Huo Buyu smiled. “Alright, let’s not think about it anymore. Hurry up, let’s get in.” He had brought Ye Yao to a luxurious hotel. “Today is an elder’s birthday.

We need to be present.”

“Oh.” Ye Yao nodded. She was dressed casually, but Huo Buyu didn’t seem to mind. She didn’t know if it would be impolite to enter like this.

After entering the hotel, Ye Yao realized that this place was extraordinarily big. Moreover, it was Gao Qiao’s grandmother’s birthday today. Ye Yao was puzzled. “Why isn’t Gao Qiao here then?”

Huo Buyu replied, “He should be here once he’s done dealing with things. It’s very obvious why I’ve brought you with me first. Stay away from Gao Qiao in the future.” Huo Buyu swore that he wasn’t jealous. Gao Qiao’s curiosity over Ye Yao’s ability had reached its peak. This wasn’t a good sign.

Ye Yao covered her mouth and snickered. “Alright, since you don’t like me being close to Gao Qiao, I won’t hang out with him.”

Huo Buyu and Ye Yao were both outstanding-looking and looked every inch the loving couple. They attracted the attention of many people the moment they entered..
