"Without two million, you can exchange it for lifespan, which is much simpler than two million, and from the young lady's physiognomy, you're certain to be long-lived. Exchanging one year of lifespan really isn't much at all, it's a very worthwhile deal," the Little Immortal said indifferently.

"Fine then, I'll exchange it with my lifespan," Bai Ling had just started speaking when Ling Zhenfei covered her mouth.

"Sorry, but you can leave now, we've decided not to proceed," Ling Zhenfei said firmly.

"Why not exchange it? Two million for the outcome of this trip to Modu really is very appropriate. Otherwise, the loss won't just be two million," Bai Ling was clearly already quite tempted.

Ling Zhenfei was very certain as he said, "That's right, two million isn't a lot for me, but I don't want to know the result in advance. Even if fate has been decided by the heavens, I still want to find opportunities to change it."

"Young man, fate is predestined by the heavens, and no one can change it. Otherwise, there wouldn't be a profession like fortune-telling. I advise you to reconsider carefully. Knowing the future in advance isn't an opportunity that everyone gets. If you don't seize such a chance, there won't be another one," the Little Immortal said without any expression, giving an impression of being unmoved by honour or disgrace.

Bai Ling looked at Ling Zhenfei with a pleading face, wanting him to agree, but Ling Zhenfei just smiled slightly, "I'm sorry, this indeed is very attractive to most people, but I don't believe in it. I'm used to solving problems in my own way."

The Little Immortal laughed, "Not bad at all, I really admire you. How about this then, I'll lower the terms a bit. One million or two questions for two million, this is already a very favorable price.

Think about it carefully. I only make three predictions a day. I've just made one for free, and there are two chances left. I can use them both on you. When you know the two crucial turning points in your life's journey, do you realize how much impact that will have on your life?"

That's right, if someone really could foresee the future, if they could know the two most important checkpoints or choices on their life's path, that would propel their life forward and could even change their entire life.

"Ling Zhenfei, I think it's really cheap and suitable. Otherwise, I can pay and you don't have to worry about it," Bai Ling was clearly moved. For a rich girl like her, exchanging one million for a chance to know the future was truly a good deal.

"No, you can't pay either," Ling Zhenfei grabbed Bai Ling's hand, worried that if he didn't, she might try to find a way to transfer the money to that person.

"Ling Zhenfei, you really are too much. It's my money; how I spend it is up to me," Bai Ling said with a stubborn look.

"I know it's your money, but I don't allow you to spend it for my sake," Ling Zhenfei said resolutely.

"But his prediction is really accurate; it's truly a pity if you are wrong," Bai Ling was still somewhat unwilling to give up.

"No, my decision is final," Ling Zhenfei refused Bai Ling firmly and then turned to the person and said, "We've decided not to proceed. You can go now."

The Little Immortal looked at Ling Zhenfei in surprise, then stood up, "Okay, quite commendable. I like the lifespan of a person like you the most. Here's my card, call me when you've made up your mind."

The Little Immortal held out a card, which Ling Zhenfei did not take and said with a wave of his hand, "I don't think that will be necessary; I'm not going to call you."

"I hope you'll take a look," the Little Immortal handed over the card again, and Ling Zhenfei casually took it and glanced at it. The name on the card, however, wasn't the Little Immortal but another name.

"You are Chen Qian!" Ling Zhenfei exclaimed in surprise at the person in front of him.

Chen Qian was the person introduced by Li Ru, praised as a genius by Chu He. He hadn't expected that this young man, about his age, would appear before him in such a manner.

"That's right, I am Chen Qian. You've passed my test," Chen Qian said with a chuckle, looking at him.

"What do you mean, what test?" Ling Zhenfei was slightly confused.

"Everything just now was a test. The flight attendant who walked by, including the dropped work badge, was all my doing. The purpose was to make you believe that I possess Divinity's fortune-telling skills in order to test whether you are a clear thinker who can resist temptation."

Ling Zhenfei suddenly realized what had been going on. Bai Ling, standing next to him, yelled in anger, "Well, you swindler! You've made me believe in you so much, yet it was all fake."

Looking apologetic, Chen Qian said, "I am truly sorry. Sister Li Ru has praised you so highly when she mentioned you to me. I just wanted to test my future partner to see if you are a clear thinker who can resist temptation. I hadn't expected you to really be formidable, confronting such temptation without the slightest interest."

Originally, Ling Zhenfei was somewhat angry, but as Chen Qian mentioned Li Ru, his anger dissipated. This man was recommended by Li Ru and Chu He, and Ling Zhenfei had already braced himself for the genius's peculiar way of thinking, so he quickly came to terms with it.

"I'm glad I didn't disappoint you. Let's reintroduce ourselves, I'm Ling Zhenfei," he said, reaching out his hand to Chen Qian.

As their hands clasped together, they knew their fates were intertwined from that moment on.

"I didn't expect my partner to not only be a genius in business but also a Divine Doctor. Your name has gone viral today, and knowing you were coming to the airport, that's why I made arrangements here," Chen Qian said, seemingly very interested in Ling Zhenfei.

"Since you already know, that makes things easier. Let's talk about anything else after I safely return from Modu. Since you've come to Binyang, you should familiarize yourself with the situation. I trust Sister Ru has told you the basics. I'll call the villa; they will follow your orders there," Ling Zhenfei said, placing great trust in the person arranged by Li Ru, mainly because of his trust in Chu He and Li Ru.

"You're comfortable just leaving everything to me?" Chen Qian said, surprised at Ling Zhenfei's magnanimity.

"What's there to be worried about? From our handshake a moment ago, I feel you are someone I can trust," Ling Zhenfei sincerely replied.

"Enough, you two men being sickening—is it not enough? It's time to board the plane. Let's go," Bai Ling interjected, evidently still holding a grudge about being deceived earlier.

"Okay, I get it. I'll give Ling Zhenfei back to you now," Chen Qian said, showing good sense.

"Alright, we can talk more after we get back," Ling Zhenfei bid farewell to Chen Qian. For some reason, Ling Zhenfei felt a great sense of relief at Chen Qian's arrival. At least, it wasn't like the last time when he went to the Provincial City to save Yang Zixuan and his lair was raided right after he left. Now, with Chen Qian present, the possibility of a fire in the backyard happening seemed unlikely.

And although Chen Qian's way of meeting was somewhat unconventional, it was clear that he was meticulous. Evaluating a partner first, and the method he used, showed his expertise in understanding human psychology. Anyone else might have been fooled by the situation earlier, and Ling Zhenfei was fortunate his intuition found it strange and didn't fall for it. Nonetheless, it was a close call.
