Transmigrated into a Parvenu's Ex-wife in the '90s

Chapter 67 - The orders came in like snowflakes.

While she was there, Shu Yan also asked Lao Hu whether there was a fortune teller around.

"What do you need a fortune teller for?" She didn't look the superstitious type.

"My place's remodeling is completed and I plan to move in by year end. I need to pick a good date to move in." Shu Yan has a look of happiness on her when she talked about her upcoming move.

"Ah, I see. Yes, you should pick a good date for that. I do have someone in mind. Want me to bring you over there now?" Lao Hu congratulated Shu Yan. It didn't matter when and where, moving into a new house always called for celebration.

Shu Yan took a look at the time. It was still early so she went with Lao Hu to meet with the fortune teller. It so happened that that fortune teller's place was right next to Feng Zeyu's. After listening to Shu Yan's ask, the old man touched his fingers and calculated that December 25 on the lunar calendar was the best date for that.

"My friend, too, will be moving on that day. Is there a different date?" Shu Yan had already promised Lin Hui that she'd cook for her that day and she didn't want to go back on her words.

"The 16this not a bad date either. That day, however, is bad for Monkeys. Are there any monkeys (Chinese horoscope) in your family?" asked the old fortune teller.

"No, the 16 this fine. Thank you, Sir." Shu Yan took the red slip of paper from him and ran into Feng Zeyu on her way out.

Feng Zeyu was a bit surprised. He didn't peg Shu Yan as the superstitious type.

"I will be moving soon so I wanted to find a good date for that. Are you just getting off work?" Shu Yan greeted him with a smile.

Feng Zeyu was taken aback. There were others around and Shu Yan talked to him? He frowned a little and acknowledged her question nonchalantly.

Shu Yan was not displeased by his attitude. She understood that he only did that with her best interest in mind.

Smiling slightly, Shu Yan said, "I will take off then."

"You too know each other?" Lao Hu finally asked after there were a distance away.

"Yeah, something happened a while back and he saved me." Shu Yan didn't tell the whole truth as that would not be necessary. Feng Zeyu helping her was the truth.

"He's a nice guy but his reputation was ruined by others." Lao Hu lamented.

"You know that as well?" Shu Yan looked at Lao Hu, surprised.

"Everybody around here know that. He offended someone back then when he saved the girl. Normally speaking, he could still live a semi-decent life after he got out of jail except that someone tried very hard to smear him." Lao Hu looked around and said in a low voice, "Most likely that stepmother of his. Those are his family business so it is difficult for us to get involved."

So there were others who knew of his innocence. Unfortunately, there was someone out there who couldn't just leave him alone. Shu Yan sighed to herself.

"We have worked together for a few times and I think of you as a friend. This doesn't sound good but I have to say it. Even if he had helped you out in the past, I wouldn't suggest that you greet him in the middle of the street. You don't want to get dragged into it." Lao Hu was being vague about it but Shu Yan got what he was trying to say.

Feng Zeyu was a single man and Shu Yan was a woman with two children. Without a husband around, it was easy for her to become the target of gossips.

"Thank you." Shu Yan knew that Lao Huo meant well.
