The middle-aged man’s eyes turned red as well. “Dandan, of course you are not a burden to me. You’re the only family I have in this world. If you leave, what’s the point of me working hard? I can wait until you graduate from university before starting my family. I’m usually so strict with you because I want you to study more. Unfortunately, I was wrong. I know you hate me. I won’t force you anymore, okay?”

“No, I’m too stupid and don’t understand a lot of things in school. I’m afraid I’ll let you down.”

“If you don’t understand, you can tell Uncle. I won’t force you. If you can’t get into a good university, you can go to an ordinary university. Uncle didn’t study much and hopes that you won’t walk the path I did.”

“Uncle, I am sorry. Boohoo, I will not spend time on celebrities anymore.”

“I don’t object to you liking celebrities, as long as you don’t neglect your studies.”

Seeing that the two of them were almost done, Tang Li said, “See, if you can talk things out instead of hiding it and letting the hatred build up, there won’t be a misunderstanding.”

Only then did the middle-aged man and Dandan come back to their senses. They did not know what Tang Li did to make them speak their minds.

Tang Li smiled and said, “I’m a fortune-teller.”

The two of them looked at her in surprise.

After a while, Dandan asked in disbelief, “You can cast spells?”

“Something like that.” Tang Li looked at the two of them, who were stunned. She said like a master, “Today, you and I are fated. How about this? I’ll read one of your fortunes. You don’t have to pay me. Which one of you two wants me to read your fortune?”

The two of them felt that the person in front of them was a god, and for some reason, they trusted her.

“Fortune-telling for my uncle.”

“Fortune-telling for Dandan.”

The two of them spoke at the same time.

“Dandan, let this master see what will happen to you.”

“No, I want Master to read my uncle’s fortune. Uncle is about to turn 35 years old and hasn’t married or had children. It’s all because of me.”

Tang Li looked at the two of them and suggested, “If you want, you can read both of your fortunes, but one of you has to pay.”

“Alright, how much? I’ll pay.” The middle-aged man immediately took out his wallet and prepared to pay.

“100,000.”

The moment Tang Li spoke, the middle-aged man’s hand that was holding the wallet trembled. The next moment, he took out his bank card. “I’ll pay by card.”

“Uncle!” Dandan didn’t want her uncle to spend so much. “Just let her read your fortune. 100,000 is too much. It’ll take you a few months to earn that. I…”

“It’s alright. Uncle will work harder to earn it back. As long as we know what our future will be like, I’ll feel at ease.”

Tang Li took the middle-aged man’s bank card. Coincidentally, there was a POS machine in the store. She swiped 100,000 yuan and gestured for the two of them to grab a seat. “Let’s go. Sit over there and I’ll read your fortunes.”

The three of them walked to the lounge and sat down. Tang Li asked, “Who wants to go first?”

“Read Dandan first.” This time, the middle-aged man spoke first. When Dandan objected, he said to her, “We both have to do it anyway. It doesn’t matter who is first. Be a good girl.”

Tang Li nodded and took out two copper coins. She tossed the copper coins on the coffee table, one face and one back.

The two of them looked at Tang Li expectantly and nervously.

Tang Li said, “There are two sides to everything. If you think you can’t do it, there must be another way, as long as you can find it.”

The two of them did not understand.

Tang Li pointed to the shelf with her finger. “Dandan, go and take a look at the instruments there. See if you like any of them.”

Dandan obediently stood up and walked to the shelf.

Tang Li and the middle-aged man stood up and followed behind her.

Dandan looked around and finally stopped in front of a konghou.

Tang Li looked at her and asked, “Do you like konghou?”

“Yes, I saw someone play it before. I think it can make the most beautiful sound in the world.”

“Do you know how to play?”

“I… know a little.”

“Then play a song for me.”

Dandan nodded and walked to the konghou. She carefully adjusted it on her lap and started playing.

The sound range of the konghou was very wide. The tone was gentle, clear, and powerful. If played well, it would achieve a stunning effect.

Dandan’s skill was obviously average, but when she put her feelings into it, it sounded different.

After she finished playing, Tang Li said, “If you can learn it systematically, you will definitely have a great development in this field in the future.”

Hearing that, the middle-aged man was a little excited. “Master, are you saying that my niece can be a musician?”

“That’s right,” Tang Li said to him. “Find a teacher in this field to train her. If there is a large-scale musical instrument competition, you can let her participate. That might be the turning point in her life.”

The middle-aged man became even more excited. “Yeah! Okay!”

Then, he asked, “How much is this konghou? I’ll buy it.”

With that, he took out his wallet.

“20,000.”

“Then I’ll buy it.”

Tang Li took the card and swiped it. After that, the three of them sat in the lounge again.

Tang Li read the fortune of the middle-aged man.

“Your marriage is after the age of 35. If you meet someone you like in the future, just pursue her. Don’t hesitate.”

“That’s great!” Dandan covered her mouth, her eyes sparkling with tears of joy. “Uncle will turn 35 in two months.”

The middle-aged man was not as excited as Dandan. He said to Tang Li, “Master, thank you. If your prediction is correct, I’ll definitely pay you a visit to thank you.”

“You don’t have to thank me. Remember to talk things out.”

“Alright.”

The two of them stood up.

Tang Li went to pack the konghou.

Dandan took it carefully and asked, “What’s your surname?”

“Tang.”

“Master Tang, thank you.”

With that, she bowed to Tang Li.

The middle-aged man also bowed to Tang Li.

Then, the two of them left.

Looking at the departing figures, Tang Li thought for a moment before taking out her phone to call the manager of the entertainment company. “There’s going to be a musical instrument competition in the near future. If a girl called Peng Dandan shows up, take her in.”

With that, she hung up and continued watching TV.

Tang Zitong came back at around four in the afternoon. She walked in with Linlin and didn’t look as energetic as when she went out.

Tang Li asked, “Why? Did it not go smoothly?”

“No.” Tang Zitong looked like she was about to die. She didn’t even want to say what had happened.

Tang Li looked at Linlin.

Linlin told her, “Second Aunt wanted to take me to her old classmate’s place to show off, but she didn’t expect her old classmate to have just given birth. Second Aunt had to give that baby a big red packet.”
