CHAPTER 853: CHAPTER 853: WHO HAS THE GREATER DARK ARTS? (2)

The facts were laid bare, and the Ou Family had no choice but to heed the words of the Feng Shui Master, suggesting they find a woman named Chunhua, who might be able to solve this problem.

Chunhua and Shihua, according to this Feng Shui Master’s theory, were like siblings and could deceive the ghost haunting Ou Shihua. This ghost, who cursed the brides to death, had a past grievance with Ou Shihua and thus entangled with him in this life, preventing him from marrying. It had to be a woman named Chunhua before birth, while still in the womb, and who had never changed her name.

Coincidentally, Ou Chunhua was working in a company in China at that time. Ou Shihua, representing the family business, came to China to discuss business and encountered Ou Chunhua due to work-related matters. This happened right after the Feng Shui Master mentioned such things.

It felt like it was a destined fate. Even though Ou Chunhua’s family was of modest means, the Ou Family, for the sake of carrying on the family line, dared not begrudge Ou Chunhua’s family for this minor flaw.

As for Ou Chunhua herself, when she met Ou Shihua, she was unaware of the Ou Family’s past and only thought of herself as a Cinderella, suddenly chosen by a wealthy suitor.

It wasn’t until after marriage, when she arrived at the Ou Family and relocated to Hong Kong Island, that the people within Hong Kong Island’s circles knew of this twist of events in the Ou Family. With so many people gossiping, news inevitably leaked out.

Knowing it was such a case, understanding that Ou Shihua might not have married her out of love, as a married woman whose family could not support her, what could Ou Chunhua do?

Of course, on one hand, she worked hard to bear a son for the Ou Family, to secure her position. On the other hand, she had to grasp onto some finances just in case. In this way, Ou Chunhua gradually became a well-known businesswoman on Hong Kong Island.

Yet, very few people knew that behind Ou Chunhua’s rise as a successful woman, there were so many stories. Certainly, the gossip-loving media had long suspected why she wasn’t close to her own family.

Gu Nuan didn’t consider herself when Zhao Mengjin made this suggestion, after all, it was a date, a real matchmaking.

Fake or not, under such circumstances, there’s no telling if sparks could fly between two young people.

Gu Nuan needed to make some things clear to this young girl, who was not deeply involved.

"You grew up in the United States and received education there?"

"Yes, Aunt," Zhao Mengjin nodded, a little puzzled as to why Gu Nuan suddenly changed the subject, as if mentioning something entirely unrelated.

"You’re different from that Jiayin—"

Zhao Mengjin smiled, thinking Gu Nuan misunderstood this aspect, and candidly explained, "The education in the United States isn’t as open as people generally think. Actually, it mainly depends on the parents’ choice. Jiayin’s parents might believe in a more liberal educational philosophy. My parents respected traditional Chinese-style education, so the schools they chose were mostly run by Chinese, with relatively strict management. Moreover, I’ve often been an exchange student since middle school, going to places like the United Kingdom for studying. European education compared to the United States is also relatively traditional."

Gu Nuan followed her words and said, "That’s right, whatever a person is like, whatever they do, whatever decision they make, is related to their environment."

Only then did Zhao Mengjin understand that Gu Nuan was teaching her how to view people and things.

"Aunt, Mo Fei the people on the Ou Family’s side—"

Being a smart young lady, it was clear that Zhao Mengjin grasped the meaning behind Gu Nuan’s words as soon as she spoke.

"You’ve been to Hong Kong Island, what impression do its people give you?"
