A train was snaking its way through the mountain ranges just like a dragon.
It was a train from the heart of the mountains to Binhai City.
Inside one of the carriages.
Scattered around were a dozen or so passengers.
A young man in his early twenties was engaging in conversation with a stunning girl across from him.
The way he was dressed was blatantly simple. Clearly he was a country bumpkin from the mountains—an indigo blue shirt with several patches and black straight pants, the style last seen in so forgotten era, and army green rubber shoes, the soles smudged with dirt.
Yet, the debonair boy had fiercely handso features, and those eyes were incredibly pure. They were like a clear sky after being washed by the rain, untouched by any dust.
This boy was Huang Xiaolong, indeed a rural lad from the deep mountains, and he was heading out to Binhai City, a glitzy and prosperous coastal city.
Sitting opposite Huang Xiaolong was a blooming girl, young and vibrant, wearing a simple floral dress. Her long, black hair cascaded over her shoulders, and her cherry lips sans lipstick donned a natural, bewitching red. Her doll-like face decorated with watery big eyes, her eyelashes fluttering occasionally through her fine nose, her tender cherry lips frequently curling into a radiant smile that could intoxicate anyone at first sight.
Her snow-white skin had a jade-like gleam, and her ample bosom was tightly wrapped in her dress, making everyone around hold their breath in suspense lest the dress slit open suddenly…
“So what is your plan in Binhai City? Looking for a job or wanna educate yourself?” the girl asked Huang Xiaolong, looking quite interested.
This ti she decided to do so outdoor survival practices deep in the mountains with university mates during the sumr vacation. Since it bored her after a couple of days, she decided to buy a ticket back to Binhai early.
The train journey was quite monotonous, so she didn’t mind having a chat with Huang Xiaolong to kill ti.
“?” Huang Xiaolong replied solemnly, “This ti going to Binhai City is carrying the hope of the entire village…”
“Huh? The hope of the entire village?” the girl appeared downright puzzled.
“Correct! The villagers gave three tasks.” Huang Xiaolong’s expression was getting more icy and serious, “First, I have to make a fortune! I want to earn a huge sum of money, enough to build houses, schools, and nursing hos in my village. I want every kid in my village to be able to go to school and learn like city kids…”
Listening to this, the girl’s face grew serious and showed admiration for Huang Xiaolong.
“Second, I need to get myself a wife! The village head told that city girls are extrely beautiful and they are incomparable to the village girls. The village head has asked to marry a city girl!” Huang Xiaolong said seriously.
The girl struggled to hold back her laughter.
“Third, I’m determined to attend university because our village hasn’t produced a single university student ever since.” Huang Xiaolong stated his three commitnts one by one.
The girl was very kind-hearted and encouraged him, “I believe you can make it! Keep it up!”
“Of course I can make it. For , these are too easy…” Huang Xiaolong seed to take it for granted. “For making money, I can casually make hundreds of billions; as for marrying, I can barely get dozens; regarding reading, it’s enough to get a dual degree or sothing like that, so I can give an account to my fellow villagers…”
The girl was taken aback. Her admiration for Huang Xiaolong vanished instantly. She thought to herself, this person is either joking or ntally unwell.
“Are you doubting ?” Huang Xiaolong glared at the girl with slight indignation. “I’m not joking, you should know, I am the pride of the entire village!”
“Uh… I didn’t— let’s change the subject. Is this your first ti leaving your hotown? Are you familiarized with the world outside?” the girl changed the topic in ti.
“I went to Binhai City to attend primary school when I was a child but dropped out during the third grade. Don’t assu I’m disconnected from the outside world. Actually, I go to the internet cafe in the town every week. Terms like ‘666’ and ‘papapa’ that you city folks say, I know exactly what they an.” Huang Xiaolong said.
Chatting with him is quite…tiring…” The girl was sowhat at her wit’s end. She thought to herself, what a weirdo this guy is, talking nonsense while pretending to be serious. He must be ntally disturbed, right?
“So what hobbies do you usually have in the mountains?” The girl changed the topic again.
“I have quite a few hobbies. My favorite is studying talismans and curses, catching ghosts when I’m free, and of course, fortune telling and Feng Shui. I occasionally do that too…” Huang Xiaolong responded truthfully.
“I’m dizzy! We can’t have a proper conversation! You’re really sothing, studying talismans and catching ghosts…” The girl decided not to waste her breath on Huang Xiaolong any longer.
There’s absolutely no way to communicate with him!
“You don’t believe ?” Huang Xiaolong was rather interested. “In that case, let offer you a free fortune telling…”
“Boring.” The girl turned her face away.
“Your twelve houses are pretty good. How about telling your na and birth details? I’ll do so calculations for you.” Said Huang Xiaolong, who was unabashedly persistent.
In the end, the girl had no choice but to give in. Seeing that Huang Xiaolong didn’t seem like a bad guy, she shared her na and her lunar birthday with him.
The girl’s na was very elegant. It was ‘Song Yuru’.
Huang Xiaolong began to calculate casually. A few seconds later, he cried out suddenly, “Great!”
“Darn it, what are you startled about?” Song Yuru was startled.
“The calculations show that our birth details are a great match! Let tell you, our Five Elents Yin and Yang match perfectly. The year, month, date, and ti of our births are aligning. We share the destiny of mandarin ducks and butterflies!”
Excitent flashed in Huang Xiaolong’s eyes, “Do you know what it ans to have such an astrological chart? From the perspective of fate, those who share the fate of mandarin ducks and butterflies have matching birth details. Heaven and Earth harmonize with each other. Couples with such birth chart combinations will have deep and undying love. As soon as they et, they will stick together like glue. However, it is a rare occurrence in a hundred years.”
“Am I being too profound? Let simplify it for you: our birth charts couldn’t be more compatible, our relationship couldn’t be better, and after marriage, our happiness couldn’t get better. n will prosper their wives, and won will prosper their husbands. In short, getting married would be like a company going public, and happiness would suddenly gush out…”
Song Yuru felt like she was going to collapse!
Is this a mistake?
Love? Marriage?
Are we talking about marriage now?
I don’t even know you!
“It’s perfect! I can’t believe I found my first wife in life on a train! This is God’s grace towards ! It’s fate! It’s fate!” Huang Xiaolong made a praying gesture.
Just then, a cold snort ca from the seats across the aisle. “Charlatan! Young man, rein yourself in! Is it fair to deceive girls like this?”
“Uh~~” Huang Xiaolong looked towards the sound, only to see two middle-aged n dressed elegantly sitting across the aisle, clearly of high status.
The one who reprimanded Huang Xiaolong was a forty-odd year old bald man with a sickly pallor on his face. However, his eyes were sharp as a hawk’s, giving off an aura of authority.
Next to the bald man was a middle-aged man, similar in age and aura, his face sallow. He quickly whispered, “Let it go, Old Hong. Don’t interfere with the young people’s form of communication that we don’t understand.”
“I just can’t stand seeing such a punk deceiving an ignorant girl by playing the charlatan!” The bald man, enraged, said to Song Yuru. “Young lady, don’t listen to him.”
Huang Xiaolong glanced at the two middle-aged n and shook his head. “You say I’m playing the charlatan? Ha, that’s slanderous… According to my temperant, I’d have to teach you a lesson. But… never mind, I see that you two are quite pitiful, at death’s door already. Why should I argue with you?”
As soon as these words were spoken, the two middle-aged n were shaken. They exchanged a glance and saw in each other’s eyes a look of shock and astonishnt!
