The fortune-teller thought of a solution. "To break your streak of bad luck is simple,” he explained. "Just pick a good day to get married."
Marriage?
Megan was stunned, then she came to a realization. She blushed.
The fortune-teller continued, "I just realized that this man next to you has the water element in him. You two are a match! You both are a couple, I assume?"
Megan blushed as she nodded.
The fortune-teller laughed, slapping his thigh. He pretended to calculate with his fingers and exclaimed, "That’s perfect! In the next six months, there will be two good days to have a wedding ceremony.
Congratulations to the newlywed couple in advance!"
At that, the fortune-teller let out a sigh of relief under his breath. He completed his mission.
Kent smiled widely. He took the opportunity to fish out a box from his pocket and knelt on one knee." Megan, marry me." He opened the box to reveal a diamond ring. It sparkled under the lanterns.
The crowd exclaimed in admiration. How romantic it was to propose to someone on such a festive day like the Mid Autumn Festival!
Megan bit her lip. She was touched yet shy. She and Kent had a marriage contract in hand. Their marriage was bound to happen in a matter of time, but she did not expect it to happen so suddenly. She was not ready yet.
However, according to the fortune-teller, she had to get married to break her bad luck streak.
Kent reassured her while he was still down on one knee. "Meg, don't worry. I will treat you well for the rest of my life."
Kent was nervous. This fortune-teller was actually a staff member from his company. He made him set up a stall here just for this moment. Kent strongly believed that Megan would agree to his proposal since there was a crowd watching.
