I was a fortune teller in 90

Hearing Dai Qing's disagreement, Dong Zhen was stunned, and then he burst into laughter.

"Master, what you said makes sense. Maybe this is just a coincidence. Dong is overthinking it."

Since the other party is unwilling to admit it, he naturally won't rush to expose the truth. As long as he knows it in his heart, it will be a warning.

After watching Dong Zhen's car drive away from the alley, Dai Qing turned back, closed the door, and paced slowly in the yard alone.

Xiao Hei came out of the nest and followed her attentively, rubbing his head against her legs from time to time.

Dai Qing sat in the corridor, stroking the dog's head, thinking about the news brought by Dong Zhen, and couldn't help but think of Xing Zhou.

Since I met Xingzhou, he has always given me the impression of being gentle, polite, and thorough. As long as he makes a promise, it is impeccable.

This man pursues perfection and is an idealist. How could such a thoughtful person go against the Fu family for her?
Moreover, after she had a feud with the Fu family, she had not met Xing Zhou. In principle, Xing Zhou had no way of knowing.

But she had mentioned it to Tang Zikai... The more Dai Qing thought about it, the more she felt that there was something else going on.

Although she had some doubts in the early stages, now that she knew it, she still wanted to call Xing Zhou to confirm it.

Otherwise, it would be disheartening if others helped you silently in the dark and you knew it but said nothing.

Thinking of this, Dai Qing took a few dollars, went directly to the entrance of the alley, found a public phone and called Xing Zhou.

The phone rang three times and the other party picked up.

"Hello~, who's there?"

"It's me, Dai Qing,"

Xing Zhou heard Dai Qing's voice and paused for a moment, his tone full of curiosity.

"Why did you find time to call me?"

"Ahem~, I know about the Fu family's affairs, I want to ask..."

When Dai Qing finished speaking, she was interrupted by Xing Zhou. Listening to his tone, there was a hint of smile in his voice.

"Are you free tonight? Let's have dinner together. This matter can't be explained in just a few words over the phone."

Dai Qing was stunned. She didn't expect him to admit it directly. It was really curious.

"No problem, come to my house for dinner tonight?"

"Don't bother you. I'll pick you up after get off work and we can just find a small restaurant and have a bite to eat."

After the agreed time, Dai Qing was no longer in a hurry. She paid the phone bill and went straight home.

Thinking that He Ning would come back for dinner in the evening, Dai Qing fried a bowl of sauce for him in advance and prepared the noodles. He could just cook them when he got home and pour the sauce on them and eat them.

At dusk, Dai Qing changed into a neat outfit, a white shirt with jeans and a half-sized windbreaker. She combed her hair into a high ponytail, left a message for He Ning, and went out with a small bag on her back.

As soon as I went out, I met Aunt Jin.

"Hey, Xiaoqing is going out now?"

"Yeah, let's go out for dinner."

"You are going out on a date wearing such beautiful clothes, right? Come to think of it, such a pretty girl must have a bunch of people chasing after her. We must open our eyes and choose carefully."

Aunt Jin looked at her and complimented her with a smile, saying that this girl was so beautiful that there was nothing wrong with her looks.

Hearing Aunt Jin's tone, Dai Qing twitched the corners of her mouth, quickened her pace and left.

As soon as she reached the entrance of the alley, she saw Xing Zhou standing on the side of the road, waving at her and opening the car door for her.

"Thank you."

Dai Qing got in the car and watched Xing Zhou start the car and merge into the traffic. While driving, Xing Zhou occasionally glanced at Dai Qing through the rearview mirror, and seeing her look as steady as a mountain, he couldn't help but curl his lips.

A little earlier than he expected.

Half an hour later, the car stopped at the door of a small restaurant with elegant decoration, Jiangshui House.

Xing Zhou got off the car and chuckled, "I usually get off work late, so I always come here to grab a bite. It's southern food, and the taste is light."

“A restaurant that can keep customers has a good chef.” Dai Qing raised her eyebrows and walked in with him.

Although the door curtain is small, it is really a different world when you walk in. The decoration of the store is quite trendy, with a touch of the style of the Jiangnan water village.

The boss was a native southerner. When he saw Xing Zhou, he immediately came up to him with a smile.

"Mr. Xing arrived early today. Let's go to the old place, shall we?"

"Okay, I'll bring my friends over to try your food. Please bring out some of your signature dishes."

"Okay, both of you please follow me."

People who run restaurants seem to be more talkative. The boss led them to the private room and never stopped talking.

"Please sit down for a moment. The food will be served soon. This lady is here for the first time. Is there anything she cannot eat?"

Dai Qing shook her head. "Whatever you like, I'm not picky about food."

"Haha...we who run restaurants like easy-going people like Miss."

After saying that, the boss pushed the door open and went out. After a moment, he personally brought up two plates of side dishes.

"This is the first time Mr. Xing brought his girlfriend here. I'll give them two free side dishes. I just hope you two can come here often in the future."

Listening to the shop owner's teasing, Dai Qing didn't care and looked at Xing Zhou indifferently.

"Boss Cui, I know you are good at business and eloquent, but Xiaoqing and I are just ordinary friends, don't get me wrong."

Xing Zhou smiled gently and explained casually.

The shop owner was stunned, then burst out laughing.

"Any friends are welcome. Please take a seat. I'll go and get the food ready."

Watching Boss Cui turn around and leave, Dai Qing couldn't help but smile slightly.
"This Boss Cui is quite interesting." If this person were to be in the later period, he would definitely be a social elite.

"I am quite familiar with Boss Cui, so I am less cautious when talking to him."

Xing Zhou stood up, poured her a cup of tea, and asked casually, "Why do you suddenly want to ask about the Fu family?"

Dai Qing took a sip of tea, looked at Xing Zhou, and recounted to him what happened today when Dong Zhen came. "I usually don't know much about the news, so when I first heard about it, I was a little curious."

Looking at Dai Qing's bright eyes, staring at him without blinking, Xing Zhou's smile did not diminish.
"Curious why I suddenly took action against the Fu family?"

Dai Qing nodded.

"It's nothing, actually. I didn't pay much attention to the land in the western suburbs at first, but later I found something hidden underneath it."

Xing Zhou said, looking at Dai Qing's eyes, which looked as if he had expected it, and raised the corners of his lips slightly.
"It just so happened that Tang Zi suddenly came to me and asked me to teach the Fu family a lesson and stop them from being so arrogant. He didn't like the Fu family."

Dai Qing choked. It was indeed Tang Zikai.

"We have the same goal. It's easy to get a piece of land. As for the other things, it has nothing to do with me. It's because Fuchun Company has loose management and many loopholes. It's only a matter of time before it goes bankrupt because someone is holding on to it."

A blacksmith must be strong himself. Fuchun Company has walked into a dead end on its own, so it cannot blame others.

Dai Qing was silent. What else could she not understand? Fuchun Company itself had problems, and they were the ones who fueled the flames. (End of this chapter)
