At that moment, Xu Zhe, who had long been ignored by Xiao Yefeng, finally finished his tasks. Turning around, he saw Xiao Yefeng looking around aimlessly. Xu Zhe, surprised, exclaimed, "Who let you come up here? Do you know this is our restricted area? No one is allowed up here without permission. Leave now, or I will report you to Sister Liu for dismissal!"
"Mr. Xu, it seems we have no deep-seated hatred between us! Why do you look down on me so much?" Xiao Yefeng retorted, as he pondered the reason Liu Yiyi had asked him to come. He genuinely did not understand what he had done to offend Xu Zhe.
"People like you are nothing but a bunch of brutes with power. If you want to understand my thoughts, go back to school and study more! Leave now, or I will call security!" Xu Zhe said in an imposing tone.
"Excuse me, but I haven't asked what you're doing here!" Xiao Yefeng ignored Xu Zhe's sarcasm and countered.
"Hmph, just welcoming another charlatan like yourself! Hurry up and leave!" With that, Xu Zhe moved to forcefully expel Xiao Yefeng.
However, Xiao Yefeng merely smiled slightly and replied, "Sorry, Mr. Xu, but I seem to be that charlatan you're referring to!"
"What?" Xu Zhe's scholarly face was filled with disbelief; he could not fathom that the person he had prepared to welcome was this lowly individual.
"Wait, weren't you here to apply for the bodyguard position?" Xu Zhe asked.
"Vice President Xu, I invited Mr. Xiao here. The reason I let him participate earlier was merely to conceal his identity; this is a crucial part of our plan. I hope you can keep this confidential!" At that moment, Liu Yiyi walked onto the stage with the support of Mei Mo'er and addressed Xu Zhe.
"Oh, yes, Sister Liu!" Upon hearing Liu Yiyi's words, Xu Zhe's expression changed dramatically as he responded earnestly.
"Also, you are responsible for hosting Mr. Xiao and answering all his questions. After Mr. Xiao has observed everything, take him to my private office!" Liu Yiyi finished speaking and left the rooftop stage with Mei Mo'er’s assistance.
Now only Xiao Yefeng, who wore a broad smile, and the awkward Xu Zhe remained on stage. After a moment of contemplation, Xu Zhe forced a smile and said, "Mr. Xiao, what I just said was a slip of the tongue. I hope you won't take offense!"
Seeing Xu Zhe's smile, Xiao Yefeng shrugged and replied, "It's no big deal. In fact, Vice President Xu isn't wrong; I used to be a brute myself. And now my line of work is indeed similar to yours—just a charlatan."
Xiao Yefeng's words seemed casual; however, they were filled with sarcasm in the ears of the meticulous Xu Zhe. Yet this was merely Xu Zhe's interpretation; Xiao Yefeng genuinely felt that way. At this moment, Xu Zhe displayed the demeanor of a two-faced politician as he smiled broadly and said, "Mr. Xiao is joking! I'm curious what Mr. Xiao would like me to explain?"
"Oh, let's do this: I have a few questions that I hope Mr. Xu can clarify for me!" Xiao Yefeng stated.
“Mr. Xiao, please speak!” Xu Zhe said.
“The first question is, who arranged the feng shui layout here?” Xiao Yefeng asked.
“Well, Mr. Xiao, to be honest, I don’t know either. I was transferred here as well, but it’s said to be arranged by a famous God No, a renowned geomancer from Huaxia,” Xu Zhe replied. As an educated intellectual who had studied abroad, he was inherently skeptical of such supernatural matters, yet he found himself almost branded as a charlatan in front of Xiao Yefeng.
“Oh, since that’s the case, let me ask the second question: Was this place a mass grave before it was established? Or was it ever?” Xiao Yefeng posed the question he most wanted to ask.
At this moment, Xu Zhe visibly twitched his lips and swallowed hard before saying, “Where did you hear that, Mr. Xiao? That’s impossible!” His eyes darted around, and his movements became awkward; it was clear he was lying.
Xiao Yefeng didn’t mind this and realized that he wouldn’t get much out of Xu Zhe. Even if Xu Zhe knew something, he would deny it just like now. It would be a waste of time; it was better to ask Liu Yiyi directly.
Thinking this, Xiao Yefeng patted Xu Zhe’s slightly trembling body and said, “Mr. Xu, let’s go meet Sister Liu. It seems the wind here is too strong for you.”
“Alright, Mr. Xiao, please!” With that, Xu Zhe led Xiao Yefeng away as if fleeing for his life. Clearly, even this atheist was still afraid of such supernatural matters. Xiao Yefeng believed that the key to his visit lay here; if this person was so frightened, the feng shui issues must be serious—certainly not just a matter of luck.
Descending from the top floor under Xu Zhe's guidance, they arrived at the entrance of one of the most central offices on the thirty-third floor. At that moment, Xiao Yefeng noticed that in his excitement to come downstairs, Xu Zhe's tie had slipped off his neck. A thin red string seemed to dangle from somewhere. Moreover, with his Yin-Yang Eye slightly opened, Xiao Yefeng could see a cluster of Pink and Black Evil Energy at Xu Zhe's brow—clearly indicating something was wrong.
“Mr. Xiao, Sister Liu is right here; you can go in by yourself,” Xu Zhe said as he prepared to leave.
At this point, with good intentions in mind, Xiao Yefeng remarked: “Xu Zhe seems to be on the verge of something good; however, I hope you can keep your heart steady—beauty can be a double-edged sword!”
Xu Zhe looked at Xiao Yefeng in surprise but then reconsidered; perhaps this guy had heard some rumors about him after all. Nevertheless, out of politeness, Xu Zhe replied, “Thank you, Mr. Xiao! I will be careful!”
With that, Xu Zhe left while Xiao Yefeng shook his head and opened the large door in front of him. As the door swung open, a twenty-square-meter office came into view. The first thing that caught his eye was a grand ink wash painting hanging behind the desk—a majestic eagle soaring across mountains and rivers.
Then Xiao Yefeng noticed four large vases made of blue and white porcelain in each corner of the office. These black porcelain bottles were not for flowers; they were part of the feng shui layout representing four gates and were also a type of formation array for wealth accumulation. Moreover, he discovered a miniature landscape beside the desk—a model featuring five buildings and a massive fountain that felt oddly familiar to him. The spherical top of the fountain reminded him that this was indeed the scenery from here!
With the meticulously calculated scale model, Xiao Yefeng understood that the core of the external water diversion lay here, at Wankang Pharmaceuticals. In other words, the entire large feng shui arrangement primarily served this place. The immense, intricate, and detailed feng shui setup left Xiao Yefeng genuinely in awe; the person who arranged this feng shui would surely be remembered for generations.
The slightly opened Yin-Yang Eye seemed to perceive a stream of golden energy being drawn in from outside, converging at the waterfall of the Miniature Landscape. As the rotating sphere brought forth a torrent of wealth that filled the office, Xiao Yefeng further grasped the purpose of the four Black Porcelain Bottles. They acted as barriers to prevent wealth from leaking out—a domineering feng shui arrangement!
Realizing this, Xiao Yefeng understood where the problem lay. At that moment, Liu Yiyi and Mei Mo'er noticed his arrival.
"Faster than I expected. Have you figured it all out?" Liu Yiyi asked from her chair.
"Perfect, immense, harmonious, domineering! That’s my assessment of this massive Five Tigers Gathering feng shui arrangement!" Xiao Yefeng said as he pulled up a chair and sat down without treating himself as an outsider.
"Wow!" Mei Mo'er responded with a mix of curiosity and excitement.
A round of applause erupted from Liu Yiyi and Mei Mo'er. Liu Yiyi then said, "Did you know? Your four-word evaluation is just like Master Lu's, and you were even quicker—about four minutes faster than him! Master Lu only gave his final domineering assessment after spending over ten minutes here."
"Are you so sure I'm not just talking nonsense?" Xiao Yefeng asked, puzzled.
"Of course! Just based on what you said to Xu Zhe earlier, I’m certain you’re a capable geomancer." At that moment, Liu Yiyi held a folder in her hand, and as she placed it on the table, a document appeared before Xiao Yefeng.
The document was none other than Xu Zhe's information. A close-up photo of Xu Zhe with a young woman appeared in the folder. Upon closer inspection, Xiao Yefeng realized that Xu Zhe was indeed entangled in a Peach Blossom Calamity. This calamity was exactly as he had seen earlier—a disastrous fate that could lead to ruin. Whether Xu Zhe lived or died now seemed uncertain.
