Our Binding Love: My Gentle Tyrant-Chapter 335

Can’t See Three Kinds of People (1)

The first to step forward was an old man. He first looked at Ye Mu’s face, and then looked at her hand.

Physiognomy, if it was said to be mysterious, then it was very mysterious. But if it was easy, it could also be very easy.

People often say, a good melon, whether it’s sweet or bitter, can be known just by looking at its shape and color.

The physical strength of a horse, whether it walks fast or slow, whether each part of its body is well-proportioned or not, how its coat color, manner and breath smells like, will tell if it is a good thoroughbred horse or an inferior horse.

People are also like this. A person’s “fate” is inseparable from “appearance” and “complexion”.

“Appearance” is the facial features, posture, and character traits. “Complexion” is the looks and demeanor. A person’s facial features can change with the changes in environment after being born. So from the person’s body condition, features, complexion and more, the person’s “fate” and “fortune” can be inferred.

But this was not applicable to Ye Mu, because by only looking at her regular complexion, there could not be a person who’d say she was bad. Hence, that man used his special skill, reading Ye Mu’s palm.

But after a long time, he felt defeated.

“Ye-xiaojie‘s* five fingers are round, thick and soft. The hollow of the palm is rosy, all the three palaces of blessings, prosperity and longevity** are complete. There’s nothing wrong with it.”

*小姐(xiǎo jiě) – honorific for unmarried young lady

**福禄寿(fú lù shòu) – these are 3 stellar gods in Chinese mythology with the meaning “blessings, prosperity and longevity” respectively, and thus also the “three palaces” for them

Ye Mu nodded, switched to another person, and that person was also bent on seeing something different. But Ye Mu’s palmistry was indeed too remarkable, it was simply a model for the business circles. So after a while of relentless praising, that person was also defeated.

Hearing so many people praising her, Mo Linyuan was in fact very happy. He looked at Ye Mu, and in his heart, he thought, is it because her wisdom has changed, so her past predestination is concealed?

At last, it was finally a young person’s last turn. Seeing Ye Mu, a smile immediately formed in his round face, revealing his two sweet dimples.

Ye Mu extended a hand, but he didn’t look at it.

“Looking at Ye-xiaojie‘s facial physiognomy from the outside, it’s full of blessings and prosperity, a physiognomy of auspicious wind throughout the journey*.”

*idiom, which means smooth sailing

Everyone originally thought this person would try to court favor with claptrap. They didn’t think he would also give a similar statement and couldn’t help but twitch their mouths.

Smiling, Ye Mu said, “Then, do a palm reading and carefully check?”

The physiognomy in this ancient time was still meticulous; it was different from today’s swindlers. Before, although most of these people gave high praises, in the end the praises were true, and the words of blessings weren’t applicable to everyone.

So she was a bit looking forward to what this young man would say.

Who would have thought that the other party would wave his hand and earnestly say, “Ye-xiaojie, I can’t help you look at your fortune.”

“Why?” Ye Mu withdrew her hand, looking at him strangely.

The other party smiled, the two dimples appearing once again. He opened his mouth, “Shifu* once said, there are three kinds of people whose fortune can’t be seen. First, royals, generals and ministers of state. Second, a renamed person.”

*师傅(shī fu) = master

Ye Mu immediately showed an interest. “Would you say I’m the renamed person?”

The other party repeatedly shook his head. “No, you are the third kind.”

Those who were looking came over. Mo Linyuan also couldn’t help but ask, “What’s the third kind?”

That person laughed. “The third kind, ah, is a dying person!”

His words settled, and everyone sank into a deathly silence.

“Bastard!” Mo Linyuan slammed the dragon seat. Except for the young man below, everyone knelt down in fear!

The great masters in particular, each and every one of them looked at the person with eyes that were about to poke a hole at him.
