Chapter 215: 215 old god fortune-telling

"Grandfather, you called for me." Just then, Mu Nan came over on his own. He had actually been waiting in his own courtyard for his grandfather to send for him, but seeing that no one came, he decided to come over himself.

"What are you doing here, not striving for progress and not choosing the right path, but instead associating with those playboys who desire only beauty and spoil their own reputations? You have completely disgraced our Mu Family." Before the Third Elder could even speak, Mu Huaidong scolded loudly.

"Exactly, he has no shame, but we still have our dignity. Since you choose to collude with him, don’t call yourself our brother anymore." The other brothers and sisters also scornfully cursed.

"Ah." The Third Elder sighed inwardly.

He was secretly angry that Mu Nan was not living up to expectations, but he was still his grandson, and he did not want to embarrass him too much; however, seeing how unpopular he was, with even his siblings unwilling to accept him, he could not say much. It was okay to be a bit partial, but not too obvious, lest he chills the other grandchildren’s hearts.

"It’s good for him to see for himself how everyone views him—perhaps he will see the error of his ways and return to the right path." The Third Elder thought to himself.

Everyone was glaring angrily at Mu Nan, but they did not notice that Qu Shanling looked surprised and then had an expression of being both amused and incredibly relieved.

"Master Qu, you don’t need to bother with him. He is just the least promising youngster of our Mu Family. Instead of being a proper family scion, he chooses to collude with despicable people. His life is destined to be ruined; don’t waste your energy on him." After scolding Mu Nan, Mu Huaidong turned back and spoke to Qu Shanling.

That was the line he had been waiting for. As long as Qu Shanling dictated his fortune, his status would skyrocket immediately, making him the most dazzling up-and-comer of the third house, with a bright future almost within reach.

Unfortunately, the development of events completely exceeded his expectations.

Qu Shanling finally came back to his senses from his astonishment, as if he had not heard what was said. He rushed forward in a few steps and tightly grasped Mu Nan’s hand.

"Such good bone structure, such good fate! In the Anming Ghost Well, a hero for life, Rise to meet Qiuyue, high office for a hundred autumns, walls of wood flourish, self-strength assures success, good fortune, good fortune..." Qu Shanling held Mu Nan’s hand, shaking it back and forth, clucking in wonder.

The Third Elder was stunned, Mu Huaidong was stunned, even Mu Nan himself was stunned.

Of course, Mu Nan also recognized Qu Shanling and was somewhat surprised that the lofty hermit his grandfather had mentioned was him. The lavish praises, as Qu shook his head and gestured grandly, also left him somewhat confused.

However, seeing the old god-man secretly winking at him and noticing the anger on Mu Huaidong’s face, he vaguely understood what was happening.

Obviously, this old god-man’s fervent support was not just because of the twenty-year indenture contract but more to please Han Yan. It was unimaginable just how powerful Han Yan’s Star Divination Skill must be to make this old god-man so submissive.

Mu Nan felt a silent sense of wonder, yet where could he know that Han Yan knew nothing of Star Divination Skill? What she was good at was the craft of a sham fortune-teller, and even the old god-man had been deceived by her.

Fortunately, what relieved Mu Nan was that the old god-man still remembered his previous instructions. Although he nearly praised him to the skies, he did not reveal that the two had known each other beforehand.

Beside him, Mu Huaidong was so frustrated that he was rolling his eyes. Everything had been under control, and the words from Qu Shanling should have been attributed to him; instead, it turned out to be a futile effort.
