Mrs. Huo Is Known for Her Predictions of Misfortune

Chapter 15

Blind Date

Ye Yao cried. Ever since she had the jinxing ability, she was using it freely on everything. These misfortunes would befall others. Unfortunately, as soon as she cursed Huo Buyu, she would become the victim instead, for some reason. It was particularly strange!

At this point, Yang Ya called. “Ye Yao, what would you like to have for lunch?”

Feeling dejected, Ye Yao replied, “I’m not eating. I didn’t bring any money with me and haven’t paid for a dress I bought. I can’t leave now.”

Upon hearing this Yang Ya quickly said, “Don’t you worry about it. Where exactly are you? I’ll be right there.”

Ye Yao thought she wasn’t hearing right. Yang Ya actually wanted to foot the bill for her? Were there pigs flying overhead? Yang Ya was like Ye Tianhao, especially petty when it came to money. It was almost impossible to get them to pay for things.

Curious whether Yang Ya would really pay for her, she sent the woman her address.

Ye Yao said to the cashier, “Hold the dress for now, someone will be here to pay for it in a bit.”

The cashier nodded, and even brought a chair over. Ye Yao had been a long-time regular customer at their store and would normally spend without hesitation. Naturally, they didn’t have to worry about her not paying up.

On the other end, upon ending the conversation, Yang Ya told Qin Jiao what had transpired. Qin Jiao was confused. “Ye Yao doesn’t have the money to foot the bill? How can she have no money to spend if she’s with Huo Buyu? Could it be that they are not together in the first place?”

The more Qin Jiao thought about it, the happier she got. Although she had been with Huo Buyu only for a short time, the man was very generous with money and had never placed a limit on expenditures. But now Ye Yao had no money to buy a dress? This gave Qin Jiao reason to think that Huo Buyu and Ye Yao weren’t together. They were only pretending, with the intention of provoking her. And because Ye Yao had been so rude to her yesterday, it made Huo Buyu angry that he had blocked Ye Yao’s credit card as a punishment? So it turned out that Huo Buyu had such deep feelings for her! Qin Jiao’s fury immediately subsided when these thoughts came to her.

In the meantime, Ye Yao was sitting on the chair playing video games while waiting. Suddenly, a man came up to her. “Ye Yao?”

The girl took her eyes off the game interface and shifted her gaze to the person in front of her. It was a very cheery and bright looking man. Gao Qiao had an advantage in terms of looks. He was sunny and cheerful, making people feel at ease immediately.

Ye Yao nodded, looking dazed. “Yes…”

Gao Qiao smiled and introduced himself, “Hello, my name is Gao Qiao. I’m your blind date.”

Ye Yao was stumped. Not understanding Gao Qiao’s remark, her head buzzed. “Blind date?”

The man replied, “Yes, your mother, Yang Ya, informed me to come over. Didn’t you know about it?”

Ye Yao’s face darkened. She knew it. Yang Ya had ulterior motives for asking her out! The woman clearly knew that she was with Huo Buyu, but she set her up on a blind date nevertheless? She even introduced such a sunny and cheerful man to her. Was she trying to have the man seduce her?! Moreover, she didn’t believe that Yang Ya and Qin Jiao would really introduce her to a good man. Therefore, this man called Gao Qiao must be a wolf in sheep’s clothing! Someone with a good appearance, but extremely filthy inside!

Ye Yao stood up. “Alright, since it’s a blind date, pay for my purchase then.”

Ye Yao’s dress was only twenty to thirty thousand yuan, which was nothing to Gao Qiao. Moreover, he liked Ye Yao’s appearance very much. She probably did not have any makeup on. Her tiny face was fair and clean, and her facial features were exquisite, like a doll.

Gao Qiao was able to flirt with any woman he found pleasant looking, it only added another feather to his cap. He made payment and smiled at Ye Yao. “You haven’t eaten yet, right? I know a restaurant with particularly delicious food. I’ll take you there.”

Ye Yao’s card had been frozen by Huo Buyu. She was still mad at him and didn’t wish to go home. Since Gao Qiao, this spendthrift, had taken the initiative to come knocking on her door, she might as well punish this scumbag on behalf of her fellow female compatriots!

“Sure,” she replied.

The two of them took the escalator downstairs. Suddenly, a scream came from the glass elevator near them. A woman carrying a child had taken a fall. Ye Yao quickly said, “Aiya, will this elevator suddenly stop working? It’s too scary.”

As soon as he finished speaking, all the elevators in the entire mall stopped. Ye Yao pushed Gao Qiao, who was standing next to her. “What are you waiting for? Hurry up and go down to save her!”

Gao Qiao reacted and ran off to pry open the elevator door with a few others, pulling the mother and son out. Fortunately, Ye Yao’s jinx worked in time. The mother and son came away only a little shocked. The person-in-charge of the mall also rushed over and said that he wanted to take them to the hospital for a checkup. This big matter was thus easily resolved.
