Chapter: 2605
Mike was young and full of energy, and he always felt a strong sense of justice. So when Mai Chengxing spoke, Mike initially found it hard to accept what he said. However, after taking a moment to think, he realized that Grandpa’s words made a lot of sense.
The main difference between feng shui masters and regular people is that they can see a person’s future, whether good or bad, through their face, feng shui, and divination. For ordinary people, this ability seems almost magical.
Mike understood that those who possess this skill must be careful not to let their compassion for others get in the way. If they do, they might find themselves in trouble. This realization helped him understand why, in movies and shows, professional killers always charge money for their services. Even if they feel sympathy for someone and want to help, they still need to take a symbolic payment, like a dollar or a penny.
This payment represents their professional ethics. They focus solely on their employers and do not get involved with anyone else’s problems. If they didn’t charge, there would be too many people in need, and no one could help them all.
After thinking this through, Mike looked at Mai Chengxing with respect and said, “Grandpa, I understand what you mean, and I will remember your advice!”

Mai Chengxing nodded and replied seriously, “It’s good that you understand this lesson.” He sighed and added, “The Mai family has always been among the top five feng shui masters…”
For thousands of years, families have been intrigued by the mystery of Feng Shui. In Western culture, understanding of Feng Shui has been limited, and many lack the deep knowledge needed to master it. Mike’s grandfather, Mai Chengxing, warned him, “If you don’t grasp the Tao before I pass away, our Mai family may fade from the ranks of the Feng Shui Great Masters.”
Mike quickly replied, “Don’t worry, Grandpa. I will do everything I can to uphold the Mai family name!”
Mai Chengxing nodded and sighed, “Well, let’s not dwell on that for now. How about we take a good look around this school? Maybe we’ll discover something special.”
Jinling University of Finance and Economics is a smaller school, with just over 10,000 students and staff. This is much less than larger universities that have 30,000 to 40,000 people. However, the campus itself is quite spacious. Despite its smaller size, Jinling University has a strong reputation, especially in economic management, which is considered one of the best fields in China. This attracts many wealthy families who want their children to learn about economics to prepare for taking over the family business.
Before Wu Qi’s accident, his older brother, Wu Xin, and their father, Wu Donghai, favored him more. Wu Xin, the eldest son, was quite average in many ways and didn’t stand out. Wu Donghai had high hopes for him and even sent him to study in the United States. Unfortunately, upon arriving in the U.S., Wu Xin began to associate with wealthy second-generation Chinese, which changed his path.
Every day was filled with sports cars, partying, drinking, and trying to meet girls. Wu Donghai lived in a world of fun and dreams. But later, he realized that not every child becomes successful just by studying abroad. Many kids lose their way without their parents around. Only a few disciplined ones can thrive in such a tempting environment.
To keep his son Wu Qi from making the same mistakes, Wu Donghai decided not to let him follow Wu Xin’s path. Instead, he encouraged Wu Qi to focus on his studies and prepare for the college entrance exam. Wu Donghai wanted Wu Qi to earn a spot at Jinling College of Finance and Economics through his own hard work.
