Seeing that Liang Chen wanted to pull Xiao Jing away, the suited man immediately went forward to stop him. Liang Chen wanted to beat him up, but he was stopped by Xiao Jing, who only spoke a few words to comfort the suited man.

Outside, the sky had already darkened, and many people were walking on the street. Liang Chen stopped in his tracks, took a few deep breaths, and then asked as calmly as he could: "Why did you treat me like this?"

Xiao Jing lowered her head and stayed silent for a long while, before she finally said calmly, "Liang Chen, I know you treat me very well, but let's part ways, we are not suitable …"

Xiao Jing sunk into silence once again, her head lowered in thought, but her voice was exceptionally resolute: "Jiangdong City would need at least seven to eight hundred thousand for a single house, how long do you want to save? We've all grown up, so we have to think about things a little longer … "

"I understand, you can do it, you can really do it!" Liang Chen noticed that she was holding onto the newest Apple phone, and nodded her head, leaving behind the words "I hope you do not regret", before turning to leave.

He did not want to hear any more of these useless excuses!

He said it so tactfully, but it was actually not because he didn't have any money. He said that he didn't want to work hard, but in the end, he easily hooked up with the rich.

Liang Chen lived in a rented apartment in the suburbs. With two rooms and a living room, the person he rented with him was surnamed Yang. He was in his thirties, an outsider that set up a barbecue stand near the Higher Education Mega Centre.

Seeing Liang Chen return in a daze, Lao Yang smiled and greeted him, "Eh? Xiao Chen is back, come and sit with me. Big brother is very happy today, so he ordered some dishes and came over to drink with me. "

"Big Brother Yang, why didn't you go out today?" Liang Chen asked with a wooden expression, he walked to the side of the small table and sat down. He was just about to pour himself some wine, but who knew that he would catch up as soon as he returned.

Lao Yang poured a glass of beer for Liang Chen as he gave him some food. With a smile that was like blossoming flowers, he continued to speak: "I got someone to help me get the hospital to inspect this, saying that it's a son. Our Lao Yang family finally has an heir, hahaha …"

Lao Yang already had a daughter, but he had always wanted a son. Ever since he opened his second child at home, he had frequently run back to his hometown.

But when he thought about him and Xiao Jing, Liang Chen lost his appetite, opened a bottle of beer, and gulped down the beer, choking and coughing continuously. Lao Yang could tell that something was wrong and immediately asked him what was going on.

"It's nothing, Xiao Jing and I broke up." Liang Chen sighed, wiping the corner of his mouth, his tears rolling down his cheeks. He raised his head and resisted the urge to cry.

"I thought she was just a little girl, but listen to me, this woman is a canary. If you can eat well and support her, she'll scream at you all day, or else don't expect to get a good result …"

Lao Yang talked for a long time, and finally comforted Liang Chen by patting the back of his hand, "Brother, where is the grass without its fragrance? With just your looks, how can you be a virgin in the future?"

But when Lao Yang's hand touched the back of his hand, Liang Chen's head suddenly felt a sharp pain. He supported his forehead and lowered his head, and a shiny copper coin suddenly appeared in his mind!

The shape of the copper coin was exactly the same as the Eight Diagrams Coin that the old Taoist Bangwan used to make divination. On the surface of the coin were painted eight simple and unadorned characters: "Qu", "Kun", "Zhen", "Shen", "Kan", "Li", and "Gen".

"Yang Yong, a young man of the 16th day of the 9th month of the year, his parents died early, his family was poor, and he started a small business with his brother Yang Tiesheng. "With their lives cut short, they will eventually grow old, both women will die, their longevity will reach the age of seventy-one, and they will die in spring and March."

"This... What is this? Why is it in my head? " Liang Chen was dumbstruck. These few hundred words had practically explained Lao Yang's entire life clearly. But didn't he just say that his wife was pregnant with a son? Who should he believe in?

His intuition told him that this copper coin might be more trustworthy than the hospital. At the very least, the doctors would not be able to make such a miraculous prediction, so he decided to find someone else to try it on.

Thinking about it, he took out his phone and called Steamed Bun. He wanted to ask Xiao Jing if she had gone back yet, but he swallowed her words back and changed it to: "Steamed Bun, do you have time now?"

"What? Not looking for your Xiao Jing? Elder sister, I am very busy. "

"I want to treat you to a meal. I'll be waiting for you at the Bohan Grill at the west gate." Liang Chen knew that she wasn't busy at all, she just didn't want to meet him alone for fear of being misunderstood by Xiao Jing.

Steamed Bun could tell that he was depressed from his voice. He asked a few times, but Liang Chen didn't tell her anything, he only said that they would talk after meeting. Then, he hung up, put on his clothes and went downstairs.

With the cold wind blowing, Liang Chen's head became much clearer. Wasn't it just money? Other people could earn a lot of money, but why couldn't he? If this Eight Diagrams Coin could really calculate the life of another, then it would be used to earn money!

The betrayal of the promise he had always kept no longer bothered him. As long as he could make money, he didn't care about anything else.

"I'm sorry, I forgot to tell you just now." Liang Chen took the menu and handed it over, saying: "You order, whatever you want to order, I'll treat you today."

Then he turned around and shouted, "Boss, give me a case of beer!"

"Eh? I remember that you don't drink usually, what's wrong with you today? Did you quarrel with Xiao Jing? " Steamed Bun blinked his eyes. His mischievous smile carried a hint of doubt.

Liang Chen tried his best to act as if he did not care, and said concisely: "Divide!"

He opened a bottle of beer and gulped down a few mouthfuls of beer. How is this possible!? Don't you guys love each other a lot? I've always been very envious of you two. "

"She thought I made less money, so she found a rich young master."

Liang Chen recounted what happened tonight to him. Steamed Bun was even more surprised when he heard it, and said with emotion: ", I didn't expect her to be like this. You're a good man, really, I'll drink with you tonight.

With that, she also straightforwardly opened a bottle of beer and took a big gulp. She choked and coughed, feeling sorry for Liang Chen. All this while, she had always envied Xiao Jing for having such a boyfriend that was willing to give his all for her.

Was there still any reliable love in the world? At this moment, both of them had this question in their hearts.

However, Liang Chen did not forget his purpose for coming here. As the waiter came to bring over a barbecue, he took the chance to give the meat to Steamed Bun a skewer and lightly touched her finger. She was not drunk at all, her face was flushed red and she did not notice anything amiss.

As expected, Steamed Bun's information appeared in Liang Chen's mind once again. "Bao Shuang, the year of C and C, twenty-ninth generation, the son of a merchant, the daughter of a hand, the year of the cardamom … "Lifespan of 26, died in childbirth."

"No wonder she wasn't willing to tell others her name. So her name is Bao Shuang. Liang Chen's expression was strange as he read this passage of information. Suddenly, he noticed the last sentence, and his heart immediately became alarmed!

"Twenty-six years of life, lost in childbirth!"

"Could Steamed Bun only live to 26 years old?" "Died in childbirth …"

Suddenly, Liang Chen started to feel indescribably sad. Steamed Bun was very open-minded, and always brought laughter to others, but he never thought that her life would be so short.

Thinking to this point, Liang Chen suddenly wanted to predict his own fate. However, no matter how his left and right hands touched it, there was no reaction, and he could only helplessly give up.

This feeling of worry about gains and losses made him very uneasy. The fear brought about by death was much more exciting than being lovelorn. In the face of the fickle fate of the world, how many people would dare to pat their chests and say that their lives were precious and their love was worth more?

"Liang Chen, what are you daydreaming for? Your phone rang. " Steamed Bun heard the phone ring and reminded him.

Liang Chen came back to reality and saw that the caller was Xiao Jing. It seemed that she had already gone back to her dorm, because the caller ID showed that it was the Xiaomi phone that he had given her.

"Where are you? I want to see you. "

Xiao Jing's voice was a little hoarse, as if she had cried before. Liang Chen's heart tightened, after hesitating for a moment, she coldly asked: "Why have you come to see me? Is there a need for us to meet again? "
