Chapter 61: You are destined for great wealth and nobility in the future!

"How is it you?"

Chau Shuk-ching, sitting in the driver's seat of the sedan, looked at Chen Hao with a face full of surprise.

Just moments ago, she had spotted Chen Hao through the rearview mirror and recognized him instantly.

Because the words Chen Hao had spoken to her previously at the Haicheng Grand Restaurant nightclub had left a deeply profound impression on her.

Especially the way Chen Hao had so accurately predicted that she would be betrayed by her good friend—that had shocked her thoroughly!

She had never expected to run into Chen Hao here today!

"It's you?"

Seeing Chau Shuk-ching, Chen Hao was equally surprised.

He hadn't expected to bump into Chau Shuk-ching here today either.

He pointed at the villa Chau Shuk-ching had just emerged from and asked, "Do you live here?"

"No, this is my friend's house!"

"I came by to see my friend!" Chau Shuk-ching explained.

Then, she asked with curiosity, "Do you live here?"

"Mm-hmm!" Chen Hao nodded.

"I didn't expect you to be quite so well-off, to actually be able to afford a villa here!" Chau Shuk-ching was extremely surprised.

People who could live here were basically no ordinary wealthy elites.

She truly couldn't tell that someone this young could actually afford a villa in such a place!

This person was most likely the scion of a wealthy family!

"Just so-so!" Chen Hao smiled faintly.

"Where are you heading now?"

"Would you like me to give you a lift?" Chau Shuk-ching asked.

"I'm going to Central. It's not far; I can just walk over myself!" Chen Hao said.

"It's no trouble, hop in!"

"I'm heading that way anyway, so let me give you a ride!" Chau Shuk-ching said with a smile.

"Then thank you very much!"

Seeing that Chau Shuk-ching insisted on giving him a ride, Chen Hao did not stand on ceremony further. He got into the car and sat in the front passenger seat.

"I still don't know your name?" Chau Shuk-ching asked while driving.

"My name is Chen Hao!"

"Chen as in the ear beside the east, and Hao as in the vastness of the cosmos!" Chen Hao introduced himself.

"Mr. Chen, do you really understand physiognomy and divination?" Chau Shuk-ching asked with intense curiosity.

When she had met Chen Hao at the Haicheng Grand Restaurant nightclub, Chen Hao had claimed to understand the art of face-reading, and furthermore, he had accurately predicted that she would be framed by her good friend!

He had even warned her that this good friend's surname was Wong!

And later on, she truly had been framed by that very good friend!

The "good friend" who framed her was precisely surnamed Wong, and her full name was Wong Ying!

Therefore, she was extremely curious about whether Chen Hao genuinely understood physiognomy!

Otherwise, how could Chen Hao's predictions have been so dead-on?

"I only know a few superficial basics," Chen Hao fudged.

Of course, he wasn't going to tell Chau Shuk-ching that he was a time-traveler and that he knew all about Wong Ying stabbing Chau Shuk-ching in the back—it was practically a given!

"You're already this amazing with just a superficial grasp?"

At this moment, Chau Shuk-ching had completely come to believe that Chen Hao was skilled in physiognomy.

Previously, she had half-suspected that Chen Hao was merely a charlatan playing the part of a mystical swindler!

"Mr. Chen, what do you think my future destiny holds?"

"Will I be able to achieve massive fame and success?" Chau Shuk-ching asked with intense curiosity.

"Although you were framed by your good friend this time,"

"you possess the physiognomy of wealth and prosperity!"

"In the future, you are destined for great wealth and high status, enough to make anyone envious," Chen Hao bluffed with a deadpan expression.

Who doesn't like hearing flattering words?

His remarks immediately brought a beaming smile to Chau Shuk-ching's face.

"Hehe!"

"I'll take your kind words for it!"

"If I truly become wealthy and successful in the future, I will definitely reward you handsomely!" Chau Shuk-ching laughed.

Soon, guided by Chen Hao, she drove the car right up to the entrance of Cheung Shing Securities.

"Thank you for the ride!"

"Goodbye!"

With that, Chen Hao stepped out of Chau Shuk-ching's car.

"Mr. Chen, could you leave me your contact information?" Chau Shuk-ching suddenly asked.

"Certainly!"

Chen Hao nodded, then proceeded to give her his mobile phone number and pager number.

Chau Shuk-ching likewise left her mobile phone number and pager number with Chen Hao!

After bidding farewell to Chau Shuk-ching, Chen Hao turned and walked into Cheung Shing Securities.

"Mr. Chen!"

"Mr. Chen!"

"..."

Almost everyone at Cheung Shing Securities recognized Chen Hao. Upon seeing him, they all greeted him with great respect!

Chen Hao was thoroughly familiar with the place and walked straight toward Heung Chi-chau's office.

Arriving at the office door, he knocked twice.

"Come in!"

Heung Chi-chau's voice came from inside.

Chen Hao pushed the door open, stepped into the office, and closed the door behind him.

After some polite pleasantries, Heung Chi-chau said to Chen Hao, "I've already looked into the matter of Chen Ping hiring hitmen to kill you in detail!"

"This bastard truly deserves to die!"

"Last night, Director Kwok and I both warned him not to pull any reckless stunts!"

"Never did I expect that he would still resort to hiring killers to deal with you!"

"Fortunately, your reflexes were fast enough, and you managed to jump out of the taxi in time!"

"Otherwise, the consequences would have been unthinkable!" Heung Chi-chau said with a face full of anger.

"It's fine!"

"Him hiring hitmen to kill me isn't entirely a bad thing, either!"

"At the very least, he's landed himself behind bars!" Chen Hao waved his hand and smiled faintly.

"That's true!"

"Hiring hitmen for murder is no minor charge!"

"Besides, a taxi driver was severely injured as well!"

"I reckon he'll be serving a very long prison sentence," Heung Chi-chau nodded slightly and said.

"Uncle Chau, letting him just sit in a prison cell is letting him off far too easily." Chen Hao's expression turned gloomy.

"Oh?"

"You want him dead?" Heung Chi-chau looked at Chen Hao and asked.

"Wanting him dead is of no use now, is it?"

"He has already been arrested; it's quite difficult to touch him inside," Chen Hao said.

"I had you come over precisely for this matter!"

"If you truly want..."

Heung Chi-chau left the rest of the sentence unsaid, but he made a throat-slitting gesture with his hand!

Chen Hao naturally understood Heung Chi-chau's meaning.

He quickly asked, "Does Uncle Chau have a way?"

"I do indeed have certain connections, but we'll have to wait until after he has been sentenced and imprisoned before we can make a move," Heung Chi-chau nodded slightly, then continued, "If you truly don't want him ever walking out of that prison, I can arrange it for you."

"Then I must thank Uncle Chau in advance!" Chen Hao hastily expressed his gratitude.

"We're all our own people, no need to be so polite with me!" Heung Chi-chau chuckled.

The reason he was helping Chen Hao deal with Chen Ping was, firstly, because he had long been dissatisfied with Chen Ping anyway!

Secondly, because Chen Hao had helped him make a significant amount of money, and he wished to continue cooperating with Chen Hao to pad his retirement fund a bit more!

Who would ever think they had too much money?

He was getting old now, and his ability to make money was not what it used to be!

And Chen Hao's moneymaking prowess was plain for all to see, so naturally, he wanted to stay on good terms with him!

Chen Hao naturally saw right through this!

He didn't mind continuing his cooperation with Heung Chi-chau either, seeing as Heung Chi-chau possessed a vast and powerful network of connections...
