“As long as you like it,” Lin Chuan laughed heartily.

Indeed, a North Bear characteristic, the love of alcohol.

While the soup base was heating up, Lin Chuan jokingly asked, “Actually, we have some other specialties here. Happens I know a little about it. Would you like to try?”

A flicker of curiosity appeared on Angelina’s pretty face, “Idol, what else can you do?”

Lin Chuan slowly exhaled two words, “Fortune telling.”

“Fortune telling?”

Angelina was startled, her eyes narrowed, full of confusion.

Lin Chuan nodded and said with a smile, “My second uncle used to be a well-known Magician in the surrounding ten miles. As a child, I learned a few tricks from him.”

“I think I’ve heard about that, it’s part of your culture,” Angelina said with interest, “Idol, tell my fortune!”

“Stretch out your hand, I usually read palms,” Lin Chuan said with a smile.

“Here.”

Without hesitation, Angelina raised her hand and placed it in front of Lin Chuan.

Lin Chuan was slightly taken aback.

He hadn’t expected Angelina to offer her hand so readily.

A man at the next table in the firepot restaurant witnessed the whole process and regretted not learning palmistry from his uncle. If he had learned, he might not still be single today.

Sigh—

Lin Chuan took Angelina’s hand.

Not because he wanted to take advantage of Angelina, but because he wanted to examine her hand to confirm his suspicion.

Angelina’s palm was not tender.

The pad of her thumb felt rough, like sandpaper, and the base of her ring finger was the same.

Lin Chuan lifted his eyes to Angelina, a flicker of puzzlement in his gaze.

“What’s wrong?” Angelina asked, her eyes blinking, smiling with pursed lips.

“Do you like playing with some dangerous toys?” Lin Chuan pondered for a bit before voicing his question.

“Are your predictions that accurate?”

Angelina drew her hand back, her expression startled.

Seeing that Angelina didn’t deny it, Lin Chuan chuckled, “The first time I saw you, I thought you were a fairy from the forest.”

“What am I now?” Angelina didn’t shy away from the question.

Lin Chuan contemplated for a moment, “Now, you seem a bit like… a hunter in the dark of night.”

“Thank you for such high praise,” Angelina’s face lit up with surprise, seemingly quite fond of the title.

“So, are you really here to protect me?” Lin Chuan asked half-jokingly.

Angelina looked directly at Lin Chuan, her eyes determined and quite solemn, “Of course. You’re my idol; naturally, I’m here to protect you!”

“I almost thought you were here for the bounty!” Lin Chuan joked.

Angelina’s hand was slightly deformed, with the base of the thumb and index finger not on the same level, coupled with several sandpaper-like calluses. Lin Chuan tentatively judged that she had been playing with two types of dangerous toys.
