Chapter 89: Chapter 89: Just Borrow Tens of Millions

Scarlett Jennings’ voice wasn’t too loud or too soft, but it was like a clear spring flowing, melodically pleasant, yet the words she spoke made people pause noticeably.

Ruby’s parents, having heard their daughter’s words, worried that she might have upset someone, hurried over to pull her away. They hadn’t expected to hear Scarlett Jennings just as they approached.

Seeing Ruby’s visibly shocked expression, Ruby’s mother couldn’t help but question,

"Ruby! Since when did you have a boyfriend?! Why didn’t I know about it?"

No wonder! Her daughter’s college entrance exam scores were so poor. It turned out she got a boyfriend and wasn’t focused on her studies!

Ruby Winsor was first stunned by Scarlett’s words, and then, being caught off guard by her mother’s voice, she frowned,

"Mom, I’m already eighteen. Having a boyfriend is perfectly normal!"

This, implicitly, was an admission.

The Jennings Family members nearby also turned their heads slightly, but unlike in the past, they didn’t rush to cover up Scarlett’s "nonsense." Instead, they were a bit curious if what she said was true.

Ruby, seeing Scarlett’s words had caused her to be scolded by her mom, was a bit upset. Remembering that she just mentioned her being deceived by her boyfriend, she was even more dissatisfied.

"How did you know I have a boyfriend? Have you seen him?"

Ruby was convinced Scarlett must have seen her with her boyfriend somewhere, which is why she said what she did.

Scarlett, however, looked at Ruby with a leisurely expression,

"I thought you’d be curious about what he deceived you."

When Ruby saw she was still talking about her boyfriend deceiving her, she couldn’t care less about her parents’ obstruction and glared at Scarlett,

"You’re talking nonsense! How could my boyfriend deceive me? We are very good together!"

Ruby thought she was merely saying that her boyfriend was cheating on her to plant seeds of doubt.

Once suspicious, it was easy to create conflicts and suspicions, which would then lead to arguments, affecting their relationship.

Thinking this, Ruby felt Scarlett was truly insidious!

Scarlett wasn’t concerned with Ruby’s angry glare, speaking to herself,

"Your Marriage Palace shows you have a rotten relationship, and there is a grey aura at your Wealth Star, which means you are about to lose money, and it’s related to your boyfriend."

She paused and asked,

"Your boyfriend, has he borrowed money from you recently?"

Ruby originally prepared a bunch of words to counter her nonsense. Upon hearing this, she was caught off guard and froze.

Her boyfriend had indeed borrowed money from her...

The young girl didn’t quite know how to hide her emotions, and with the guests around being savvy figures, they naturally noticed that Ruby had been hit spot on, and a hint of interest arose among them.

Ruby’s parents also saw their daughter’s odd expression and hurriedly asked,

"Baby, could it be that Scarlett was right, did your boyfriend really borrow money from you?"

Ruby, questioned by her mom, felt guilty for a moment yet stubbornly said,

"Well... he needed funds for his business start-up. I was investing, not lending..."

Hearing this, Ruby’s mother was nearly angered to faint.

Initially, she thought it was just borrowing a small amount of tens of thousands, treating it as giving a handout.

But when it came to investing in a start-up, there was immediately a bad premonition.

"How much... how much did you lend him?"

At that moment, she had already quickly calculated in her mind how much money her daughter could have at her disposal.

Faced with her mom’s sharp gaze and those faint yet watchful glances around, Ruby flushed slightly, feeling a bit embarrassed,

"Not much..."

Her voice was noticeably weaker than before.

But Ruby’s mom didn’t buy it,

"Not much is how much?!"

Ruby’s dad had an intuitive feeling that this was not good, not wanting people around to see their family as a joke. He gently held his wife’s arm and then looked at Ruby, with an expression suggesting,

"Come with me."

He then apologized to Scarlett Jennings and the surrounding guests with a smile,

"Ruby is immature. Dear niece, please don’t take it seriously. I’ll have a word with her."

Then he took Ruby and Ruby’s mom and left.

Being in the same circle, naturally, no one would push the other to embarassment, but curiosity about the Jennings Family’s recently recovered child was inevitable.

Last time hearing her talk about Fate Charts made a few who believed in metaphysics quite curious.

Later they investigated, saying that the Silva Family’s issues were also resolved by this young lady of the Jennings Family.

Rumor said that the little kid from the Silva Family narrowly escaped losing a life, and not only did this child avert the disaster, but it was also said that she helped the Silva kid get better.

However, the latter part was not widely believed, as some acquainted with the Silva Family had seen the little girl recently, still appearing quite childishly foolish.

But seeing today, it didn’t actually look like she was completely talking nonsense?

Lucas Jennings had his eye on this spot as soon as Ruby confronted his sister, waiting for his sister to embarrass Ruby.

That person actually dared to mock his sister’s school as inferior!

When he saw people being led away, with half the spectacle interrupted, he was unwilling and secretly followed them.

Not long after, Lucas returned with a secretly excited face.

Soon, some younger guests learned.

Ruby Winsor had lent her boyfriend all her pocket money from childhood, a total of thirty million!!

Though this sum sounded intimidating, it was only for ordinary people.

In the eyes of the prominent figures here, this wasn’t much. What surprised them more was that this was actually predicted by the young lady of the Jennings Family!

For a while, everyone looked at Scarlett Jennings with a few more eager glances.

Luca Jennings: ...

What kind of looks are these people giving my daughter at what should be a simple teacher appreciation banquet?

But looking asides, those present were of considerable stature and naturally wouldn’t directly approach a child for fortune-telling.

What if something bad was revealed?

While they had reservations, the younger guests were less concerned.

One who was on good terms with Lucas moved over with a cheerful smile,

"Jennings sister, do you really know fortune-telling? Is that school you attend really teaching this? Is that Taoism Academy real?"

Upon hearing this, Scarlett turned her head, yet before she could speak, a familiar voice came from beside her.

"Haven’t you all been following online news? That Taoism Academy, it’s not as simple as you think."
