Chapter 1197: What a Rare Specimen
Chapter 1197: Chapter 1197: What a Rare Specimen
Zhao Dingli pointed at his eyes: "He probably has some kind of green tint in front of his eyes, thinking everyone is a tea person."
"Of course, there are those who pursue him actively. These days, girls chasing guys is nothing, it’s quite brave and good actually. Besides, some people have no idea who he is at all."
"Once, I was with him at a coffee shop, I left for a bit, and halfway back, I saw a girl actively asked him for his WeChat." Zhao Dingli said, "I thought, since Wei Zhiqian rarely finds a match, I shouldn’t interfere with such a good thing, so I quickly hid away and didn’t show up."
Of course, I hid in a place convenient for watching the show.
I had to hear what Wei Zhiqian would say.
At that moment, Zhao Dingli had a hunch that whatever Wei Zhiqian replied would be very interesting.
"There in the coffee shop, they were strangers to each other, not knowing what the other did. Qianzi isn’t a celebrity, known somewhat in certain circles, but obviously not many would know him outside that. The girl just thought he looked handsome."
Now, Wei Zhiqian’s only asset probably is his face.
As long as he doesn’t speak, his face can really fool people.
Li Xiaoyun nodded, indicating that Zhao Dingli made a valid point.
Zhao Dingli continued, "Do you know what he said to her? He said, ’Are you trying to scam me? Don’t even think about getting my WeChat!’"
Li Xiaoyun: "..."
"So, this is how he detects tea people?" Li Xiaoyun’s mouth twitches as she asks.
For actual tea people, this is indeed effective.
But the thing is, not every girl is a tea person.
She was merely asking for WeChat!
Zhao Dingli nodded: "No matter how the girl explained, he wouldn’t listen. I saw he was about to ask the staff to complain about the girl harassing him, so I quickly went back. The girl ended up leaving angry."
Li Xiaoyun: "..."
"Actually, not dumping a cup of coffee on his face shows the girl had a good temper. Complaining to the staff that she was harassing him, is that okay?" Li Xiaoyun snarked.
The girl didn’t seem to mind losing face.
"Do you know what he said to me after I went back?" Zhao Dingli asked.
"What did he say?" Li Xiaoyun wanted to know, so she cooperated.
Listening to Zhao Dingli talk about Wei Zhiqian was like listening to a comedy skit.
"He said, ’Luckily, I was smart enough not to give her my WeChat. There’s still a lot of money in my WeChat wallet! As the dignified heir of the Wei Family, how embarrassing would it be to be scammed!’"
Li Xiaoyun: "..."
So he doesn’t find this embarrassing?
"Well, no wonder he’s still single." Li Xiaoyun couldn’t even figure out how to describe Wei Zhiqian.
What a rare breed!
"But, why do you call him Wei Zhikai?" Li Xiaoyun asked in confusion.
"Because Mrs. Wei had Mr. Xie calculate it." Zhao Dingli sidetracked by giving Li Xiaoyun a brief intro to the Xie Family.
After all, Li Xiaoyun entering his social circle would undoubtedly need to know about these.
Li Xiaoyun was stunned: "There really is an exorcist?"
She had never heard of the Xie Family.
How many hidden things in this world does she not know about?
"Well, how about I take you to observe during a spirit dispelling? Of course, nothing too dangerous, I wouldn’t be assured either. But for little spirits, with lower danger levels, it might be okay. Oh, and the Xie Family has Amulets. You can wear one while observing, so you won’t have to worry about danger."
Li Xiaoyun quickly shook her head: "That won’t be necessary."
She doesn’t even dare watch horror films, let alone live versions?
No, thanks!
Zhao Dingli chuckled, saying: "Don’t worry, I’ll make sure to send you a permanent one as a gift when the spirits return."
"There’s even a permanent version?" Li Xiaoyun was surprised.
"Not exactly permanent, just that it can withstand more times. But as long as one isn’t that unlucky, they probably won’t encounter more than a few times in a lifetime. It’ll be enough." Zhao Dingli said, "The talismans sold to outsiders are drawn ones, single-use. To those well-connected or reputable long-time customers, they sell ones that can be used two or three times, nurtured with jade stones."
"As for people like us, considered family, they directly give ones that can withstand many instances of harm." Zhao Dingli said, "Lu Man has one, Zhuofeng has one too. Even the two elders in our family have one. The rest of us, seeing our lack of any tarnished aura left by spirits upon us, aren’t given one."
"If even a tiny bit existed, she could detect it and would definitely provide one, you can be assured." Zhao Dingli himself didn’t have one, or he would’ve given one to Li Xiaoyun earlier.
Li Xiaoyun nodded, saying: "Actually, it’s best never to be given one."
This means she never has those around her...
Zhao Dingli chuckled, relieved he hadn’t explained too thoroughly in fear of scaring Li Xiaoyun.
However, Li Xiaoyun reacted quickly: "You say Lu Man and Han Zhuofeng both have one, does that mean they..."
"They have both come into contact, but thanks to timely discovery by the spirit guide, they were fine. Zhuofeng even joined the guide in spirit dispelling, though Zhuofeng was just observing naturally couldn’t help. But he wanted to keep the guide company throughout."
Li Xiaoyun gave a thumbs up: "I didn’t expect that. Just having this intention and action is impressive. No wonder he managed to find someone so young. Mrs. Han must be very proud."
Zhao Dingli: "..."
She really is a true wife, grasping all the tricks of every family’s elder tactics in such a short time.
Zhao Dingli nodded: "Indeed, very proud, so much so that Han Zhuoli is no longer favored at home. The most beloved is now Zhuofeng."
Li Xiaoyun: "..."
Mrs. Han is quite practical too.
Unexpectedly, the pressure of competition among children in each family is also so great.
Wanting to be favored is too difficult.
"Ahem!" Zhao Dingli was afraid Li Xiaoyun might think of him.
Dragging out to this age before finding someone, it was imaginable how tough his position with Zhao Family elders was over the years.
Seizing the moment before Li Xiaoyun thought about it, Zhao Dingli quickly said: "Anyway, Mrs. Wei found the head of the Xie Family, that is the father of the spirit guide, to calculate a name for Qianzi. So he was named Wei Zhiqian, meaning ’where there is sincerity.’ Below that sentence, isn’t it ’Gold and Stone Split Open’? We jokingly called him Wei Zhikai."
Li Xiaoyun couldn’t help but laugh; these people are too amusing.
"Then your status at home probably isn’t high either." Li Xiaoyun’s quick mind, not so easily fooled by Zhao Dingli?
Zhao Dingli: "..."
Zhao Dingli suddenly pulled Li Xiaoyun, giving her a fierce kiss on the lips before saying angrily: "Don’t think I forgot you stole a kiss while I was drunk."
Li Xiaoyun: "..."
Blame it on Wei Zhiqian for diverting her attention, making her forget this incident.
