The Hidden Dragon In-Law

Paul was indeed very curious about James Ye. From the beginning, he assumed James was from the Yanjing Ye family. Although James later dispelled this notion, the title of Master Ye still left Paul with new doubts.

Inviting James over to check the Feng Shui was actually a test by Paul. He had already had the Feng Shui here checked by a specialist.

If James couldn't tell that the Feng Shui had already been arranged, it would prove he didn't have the skills to be called Master Ye. But if James could see the Feng Shui setup, it would prove his skills were exceptional.

Paul didn't expect James to immediately see through all the Feng Shui arrangements. The previous master had taken a long time to study and set these up.

James wasn't angry at Paul's suspicion. On the contrary, he appreciated Paul's straightforwardness, saying what he thought without hiding anything, a rare quality in today's society.

So, he said to Paul, "It's only natural for you to want to see if I have real skills. But since I'm here, I must charge you a fee for the Feng Shui consultation, which is also only natural."

Before coming, James hadn't planned to ask Paul for money, considering he was the son of his father-in-law's old friend. But since Paul was so honest, James decided to treat him the same way.
