    ire wasn’t nning to engage in a lengthy conversation with Emily, so she promptly said, “Emily, I’m not great at socializing, so I won’t impose on your boss.”


    She then added, “Husband, shall we head inside first?”


    Upon hearing ire refer to Charlie as her husband, Emily’s expression shifted to surprise, and she asked, “Are you ire’s husband?”


    Charlie nodded slightly and replied, “Yes, that’s correct.” Emily then took a moment to scrutinize Charlie and remarked with a smile, “ire mentioned that you specialize in Feng Shui.” She continued, “Does anyone still believe in such deceptive practices?”


    Charlie frowned slightly and responded, “Many things exist if you choose to believe in them; if you don’t, then they don’t. It’s simr to faith in a deity. Though no one has ever seen God, that doesn’t stop believers from epting His existence.”<h3 style="background-color:DodgerBlue">


    Emily smirked and said, “God and Feng Shui are notparable. God represents faith, a manifestation of wisdom. Feng Shui, on the other hand, is merely a feudal superstition exploited by chatans to deceive.”


    Charlie waved his hand dismissively, chuckling as he said, “The genuine principles of Feng Shui trace back to the Eight Diagrams in the Book of Changes, which was written during the Western Zhou Dynasty over 3,000 years ago. Its history predates the three major world religions. So, before youment on something, Miss, it would be wise to inform yourself to avoid sounding foolish.”


    Emily was taken aback by Charlie’s teasing, and her expression turned uneasy. Although she had heard of the “Book of Changes,” she had never studied it deeply enough to counter his ridicule.


    Crossing her arms, Emily let out a haughty snort and challenged him, “If you know so much, why don’t you demonstrate your Feng Shui skills? Let me personally see if the techniques you speak of actually work.”


    Not wanting to engage further, but unable to resist, Charlieughed, “Oh, it seems you have some significant issues with your career.”


    Emily looked puzzled and asked, “Are you saying my career has a major problem?”


    “Yes,” Charlie affirmed confidently. “There’s a major issue. If I’m not mistaken, your career is about to face a setback, and all your hard work might soon be in jeopardy.”<fn548d> The source of th?s content is F?ndNovel</fn548d>


    Mrs. Lewis scoffed, replying, “Are you joking? I might entertain the notion of other problems, but iming my career will suffer is absurd!”


    As she spoke, Emily dered arrogantly, “Ai Kang, you may not be aware, but thispany is among the world’s top design firms, publicly traded with a market value exceeding 10 billion U.S. dors! Only a handful are senior partners, and I’m one of them, the youngest to boot!”


    “Moreover, senior partners earn over five million U.S. dors annually before taxes, with top earners making more than 100 million U.S. dors!”


    At this point, Emily looked at Charlie with a mocking expression and continued, “I just became a senior partner today; my future is bright. Why would you say my career will suffer? Is it because of my looks? What a joke!”


    Charlie responded patiently, “While your excitement today is evident, your hostile eyebrows suggest an underlying negativity. Additionally, although your eyes arerge, their slight protrusion indicates a narrow-mindedness, and your thin lips with sharp features imply a tendency for conflict.”


    Emily retorted with a sneer, “So you’re judging Feng Shui and resorting to personal attacks? What’s wrong with my big eyes and thin lips? If those are troublesome traits, why not mention my height or my figure?”


    Charlie smiled, saying, “I was actually going to mention how your raised eye corners, downturned mouth, and beauty marks are signs of charm. Your current joy likely ties back to your inherent attractiveness, which could indeed bring you future sess in your career.”


    Emily, feeling a bit flustered, stammered, “You… stop making baseless ims! I’ve earned my position through hard work, not through my looks.”


    Charlie shrugged, “From an outsider’s perspective, it seems every advancement in your life is linked to your appearance. But you just need to acknowledge that internally.”


    Emily angrily shot back, “You im this isn’t personal, but I can easily have mywyer sue you for defamation!”


    After saying that, she scoffed dismissively, “And really, what’s the point of your rambling? Today is my lucky day; I’m stepping into a bright future. How could I possibly face a setback?”


    Just as Charlie was about to respond, a middle-aged man approached and smiled at Emily, “Emily, who are you chatting with? It sounds intriguing.”


    Emily smiled back at the middle-aged man, “Chairman, you’re here quite early!”


    The middle-aged man replied, “It’s your graduation ceremony; I wouldn’t miss it for the world!”<h3 ss="has-text-align-center wp-block-heading" id="chapter-list"><strong></strong><h3 ss="has-text-align-center wp-block-heading" id="chapter-list"><strong>Next Chapter</strong>
