Zhou Renjie felt that Lin Hao's strength was at most comparable to his own.
Even if he was stronger, he definitely wouldn't be much stronger.
How could he possibly be a master at the Great Perfection of the Human Stage Diviner?
He had been studying divination and geomancy since childhood, and had only reached the Minor Accomplishment of the Human Stage.
Lin Hao was a few years younger than him, so how could his cultivation realm be higher than his?
As Zhou Renjie pondered these thoughts, he withdrew his gaze and looked back at Liu Yongchang.
However, after staring at Liu Yongchang for a full minute, he could only helplessly withdraw his hand.
The result was the same as before; he could not discern anything.
Liu Yongchang's luck seemed to be completely shielded. Not only were there no signs on his face, but his overall fortune was also a complete mystery, impossible to fathom.
Zhou Renjie looked at Liu Yongchang and finally shook his head in resignation.
He thought that Liu Yongchang might be experiencing a period of great fortune.
Because if a person was in a period of great fortune, their luck could very well be naturally obscured.
Only after the period of great fortune passed would the person's luck return to normal and reappear.
And now, the signs displayed by Liu Yongchang were exactly the same as those of someone experiencing great fortune.
Zhou Renjie believed that, barring any unforeseen circumstances, Liu Yongchang was definitely in a period of great fortune.
However, it was fine if he couldn't read Liu Yongchang.
Besides Liu Yongchang, there was also Lai Qingsheng.
He could simply observe Lai Qingsheng three times and perform three divination rituals on him, and it would be the same.
As Zhou Renjie mused on these thoughts, his gaze shifted towards Lai Qingsheng.
But just then, Liu Yongchang looked at Zhou Renjie and said, "Mr. Zhou, you've been looking at me for quite a while. Shouldn't you say something?"
Having navigated the business world for decades, Liu Yongchang had become quite astute.
From Zhou Renjie's earlier expressions, he had a vague sense that something was amiss.
However, he neither understood physiognomy nor divination.
Now, he could only try to probe Zhou Renjie, to see if his feelings were correct or not.
Zhou Renjie, who had intended to observe Lai Qingsheng, was suddenly startled by Liu Yongchang's words.
Following that, his expression turned somewhat displeased as he looked at Liu Yongchang and said, "You know you are currently in a period of great fortune, and your luck is completely obscured by nature. I haven't held you accountable, which is already sparing your life. Yet you dare to question me?"
"What?" Liu Yongchang blinked in surprise, then looked at Zhou Renjie in confusion. "What great fortune? What are you talking about?"
Liu Yongchang truly looked bewildered as he stared at Zhou Renjie.
He had not understood what Zhou Renjie was talking about at all. He had initially thought there was a problem with Zhou Renjie's physiognomy reading, but he hadn't expected Zhou Renjie to bring up something like this.
However, he immediately understood.
Zhou Renjie's rambling explanation meant that he hadn't seen anything at all, didn't it?
Upon realizing this, Liu Yongchang's spirit suddenly lifted, and he immediately looked at Zhou Renjie and said, "Don't talk about these irrelevant things. Just tell me directly, when you were looking at me just now, did you see anything at all?"
"Heh, I knew you didn't see anything."
"I originally thought you, Zhou Renjie, were famous and truly skilled. Now it seems it was all just a scam!"
"I wonder if those who casually spend tens of millions to have you read their fortunes will regret it when they know the truth."
As Liu Yongchang spoke, he deliberately glanced behind Zhou Renjie at Zheng Qinglong, Jiang Chengda, and the others.
He recognized these people as well; they were all prominent figures in Shanghai's business circles.
However, he now looked at Zheng Qinglong, Jiang Chengda, and the others with amusement.
"Do you know what you're saying?" Zhou Renjie asked, his face turning grim as he looked at Liu Yongchang.
He truly hadn't expected Liu Yongchang to pull this stunt on him.
Although Liu Yongchang's words wouldn't affect him, being repeatedly provoked by an insignificant ordinary person like this had ignited his anger.
But just then, before Liu Yongchang could speak, Zheng Qinglong, standing beside Zhou Renjie, stepped forward and said with a sneer, "Mr. Liu, if you don't understand something, don't pretend to understand."
"Mr. Zhou has already made it very clear. He said you are experiencing great fortune, and therefore your luck is naturally obscured and cannot be seen."
"Even if you want to see it, you can only do so after your period of great fortune has passed."
"So, don't pretend to understand and try to steal the spotlight here."
"Otherwise, Mr. Liu, you'll be no different from a clown in the eyes of others."
As Zheng Qinglong, leaning on his cane, uttered these words, the others behind Zhou Renjie burst into laughter.
"Haha, Brother Zheng is right."
"Yes, Mr. Liu, it's best not to meddle in things you don't understand, lest you become a clown as Mr. Zheng said."
"Hey, you guys are going too far! Mr. Liu is the richest man in Shanghai, how can you compare him to a clown?"
Liu Yongchang's expression changed as he listened to Jiang Chengda and the others mock him.
However, Lai Qingsheng, standing beside him, then spoke, "You people are just jealous that Mr. Liu is the richest man in Shanghai, aren't you?"
"If you have the ability, just become the richest man in Shanghai!"
"If you don't have the ability, then shut up, lest you embarrass yourselves in front of others."
After Lai Qingsheng finished speaking, without waiting for Jiang Chengda and the others to reply, he immediately turned to Zhou Renjie and said, "Are you going to observe or not? If you are, hurry up; if not, admit defeat and leave!"
Zhou Renjie narrowed his eyes as he looked at Lai Qingsheng, then began to scrutinize him.
At this moment, he had already decided to deal with Lai Qingsheng and Liu Yongchang properly after this matter was over.
Otherwise, in the eyes of others, wouldn't he, Zhou Renjie, be considered a dead man?
Zhou Renjie thought coldly to himself as he observed Lai Qingsheng.
However, after a full minute of observation, Zhou Renjie's expression changed.
Lai Qingsheng's facial features were the same as Liu Yongchang's; he still couldn't see anything!
How was this possible!?
Zhou Renjie looked at Lai Qingsheng, filled with disbelief.
Could Lai Qingsheng also be experiencing great fortune?
Impossible!
This was absolutely impossible!
A person experiencing great fortune was already a rare occurrence, requiring immense virtue.
How could two people, at the same time and place, be experiencing great fortune simultaneously?
This was impossible.
This was absolutely impossible.
But if Lai Qingsheng wasn't experiencing great fortune, then what else could it be?
As Zhou Renjie stood there, bewildered and filled with disbelief, Lai Qingsheng, also astute, immediately looked at Zhou Renjie and said, "Mr. Zhou, did you see anything?"
