Chapter 1699: Ensnared by a Hunk
“She really didn’t attend?”
“She didn’t . ” Shen Zhilie shook his head . “In the end, the wedding didn’t take place either, and it caused that huge ruckus . ”
Ye Qianqian nodded her head . A thought suddenly occurred to her . She asked, “If your grandma is that mystical, why couldn’t she predict that Guan Queye would create such a scene at the wedding? If your grandmother had known about it earlier, the whole problem wouldn’t have happened, and your brother wouldn’t have had to sit in prison for nothing . ”
“I told you, she’s half a deity . The emphasis is on the word ‘half’ . That means she’s only effective half the time . If she was able to predict everything, wouldn’t that just make her a full deity?”
“You’ve got a point . Well, has your grandmother ever tried to predict when you’ll be getting married?”
“Nope . Now that you mention it, she’s always divined the futures of other people, but she’s never done it for anyone in the family . ”
Ye Qianqian felt her hair standing on its ends . “I think she might be on to something . Moreover, isn’t fortune-telling affected by the degree of relation? I think it’s normal that she can’t read the fortunes of those who are related to her by blood . After all, the secrets of the heavens cannot be divulged!”
Shen Zhilie looked surprised and said, “Wow . You seem to know a lot . When we get back, I’ll take you to my grandmother . You’d make a good disciple of hers . ”
“Damn you . I’m not out to be a mystic . ”
“Haha! Let’s go for dinner . I’m hungry . ”
Shen Zhilie pulled Ye Qianqian along as he roamed the streets and entered a random restaurant .

Most of the restaurants in Italy were elegant .
Even the servers were good looking . They were tall and blonde and handsome enough to make a girl see stars .
Ye Qianqian was dreamy-eyed . She looked ready to sell her soul .
As Shen Zhilie ate, he said, “Don’t get fooled by the good looks of the people here . They’re out to trick you into spending more . ”
What he said came true .
Soon enough, a young hunk seemed to sense Ye Qianqian’s gaze on him and quickly made his way over . In English, he asked, “Pretty lady, would you like something to drink?”
Ye Qianqian felt intoxicated as she replied, “What drinks do you serve?”
Shen Zhilie’s face soured . He interrupted to reply, “That won’t be necessary . Thank you . ”
With that, he lightly smacked ye Qianqian on her hand and remarked, “There’s nothing to see there! Stop looking!”
Ye Qianqian paid no heed . She smacked his hand away and dreamily replied, “Just ignore him . ”
The young hunk smiled gracefully and made a polite introduction . Ye Qianqian gradually leaned in toward him, keeping her eyes firmly on his face .
Shen Zhilie’s expression darkened . “Ye Qianqian!” he called out .
Ye Qianqian pretended he didn’t exist and carried on her conversation . She said, “Oh, I don’t really know . Why don’t you tell me what’s good here?”
“Our signature drink is the Covenant of Romance . It’s 50 euros per serving . Would you like a glass?”
Fifty euros!
“What the hell? That’s daylight robbery!” Shen Zhilie tugged at Ye Qianqian’s arm and said, “That’s about $55! Are you really going to pay for that?”
Ye Qianqian was stunned when she heard the price and blinked her eyes . “It’s that expensive?”
The young hunk chuckled and replied, “It’s as beautiful as you are . Beautiful things are worth exchanging everything for . ”

Oh my god…
Ye Qianqian was about to lose her heart . Gazing at his captivating smile, she dazedly extended her index finger and said, “Give me a glass, then . ”
“Sure . Please wait for a moment . ”
The young hunk immediately left . When Ye Qianqian turned her head, she found Shen Zhilie looking at her with a dark expression .
Ye Qianqian had never seen such an expression on his face before . She cleared her throat . With a guilty-conscience, she said, “Well… I just want to find out what a drink that costs $55 tastes like . ”
“It seems more to me that you were bewitched by his good looks! How shallow!”
