[Waaah...Me too.]
Bai Xi took a sip of tea and said, "The same old rules, three divinations."
As soon as she finished speaking, the lottery wheel started spinning.
The first person destined to be with us has been born.
Nickname: Gray Fruit.
After paying the divination fee, Gray Fruit went live on stream.
A man in his forties appeared in the live stream. He seemed to be in poor spirits, with tired eyes and a somewhat fierce expression.
His background wall is set in a rented room, where things are rather cluttered.
Bai Xi asked, "What do you want to know?"
Gray Fruit spoke with disdain, "I want to succeed. Can you change my luck?"
Comment: [This guy seems a bit condescending.]
Is this an attempt to gain something for nothing?
The streamer won't do that for you; changing your luck is against the will of Heaven.
[When ordinary people come to have their fortunes told, shouldn't they ask about their career or wealth, or whether they can succeed in a certain field? Why does this person immediately ask if I can help them succeed?]
He probably knows he's not destined for success; you can tell by his energy and spirit. At forty, looking like this, it's clear he's never achieved anything.
[It's possible it succeeded, but then failed.]
This shows he hasn't tried hard enough.
When Bai Xi heard his question, she replied calmly, "No."
Gray Fruit: "Then why are you a fortune teller?"
Bai Xi said, "Helping people change their fate is going against the will of Heaven. I would not do this unless there are special circumstances."
The gray fruit snorted.
"I think you're not incapable of helping people fix things, it's just that you're not paying enough."
He was full of resentment and disdain. Bai Xi did not argue with him. Indeed, there were many unscrupulous cultivators who would do such things for a little benefit, but she was not that kind of person.
Seeing that she didn't speak, Gray Fruit felt awkward, but he began to question the streamer's abilities.
Perhaps she became famous simply because she is beautiful and knows a bit about marketing.
He had the idea of exposing this fraudulent streamer. "I heard you're very good at fortune telling and have never been wrong. Can you even tell my personal story?"
Bai Xi nodded, "Okay."
She pinched her fingers and gazed at his face in contemplation for a while.
Seeing that she remained silent for a long time, Gray Fruit became certain of his thoughts and asked, "What? Can't figure it out?"
Bai Xi: "No, your destiny has changed a bit."
Gray Fruit scoffed when he heard this reason.
Bai Xi, "You once sought out a master to change your luck."
Upon hearing this, Gray Fruit looked slightly surprised, but not because she had predicted it correctly.
“You’re wrong about the first one. I’ve never sought out a master to change my luck.”
He did consider consulting a master to change his luck, but they all shook their heads and refused to do so.
He begged them, but they refused to accept his fortune-telling fee and left without paying.
There was an old Taoist priest who muttered, "You have had an experience of having someone change your luck."
He was somewhat puzzled, and then realized that he had been scammed and that the calculations had not been accurate at all.
However, during this live stream, the streamer repeated the same words as the old Taoist priest.
Bai Xi: "No, the past I'm talking about isn't your current life, but your previous life."
Gray Fruit was taken aback by these words, then laughed dismissively.
"Do you think I'd believe you? What about past lives and this life?"
Bai Xi: "Since you believe in fortune telling and changing your fate, why don't you believe in past lives?"
The gray fruit remained silent.
He then said, "Don't give me any of this nonsense. What I need you to calculate is my current personal experience. If you can't figure it out, just say so."
Bai Xi realized that he had already received money from others for divination and would not take it back unless there were special circumstances.
Then he said, “You are forty-one years old this year. You were born into an ordinary family in a small city. Your parents have a harmonious relationship and your siblings have a harmonious relationship. After you graduated, you saw the prosperity of big cities and the wealthy people in the upper class, and you felt envious.”
"You wish you could be one of them, so you start working really hard, but you find that no matter how hard you try, you can't do it."
"But you are not without opportunities to succeed. On the contrary, you have many opportunities. Your boss appreciates you, your girlfriend admires you, and your family encourages you."
"You encounter many opportunities in your work and life, but you find that even if you have many opportunities, you seem unable to seize them, or they always disappear just when you are about to seize them."
As Gray Fruit listened, he was somewhat surprised; the streamer in front of him had practically revealed all of his innermost thoughts.
Bai Xi continued.
"When you were eighteen, you were just one point away from getting into your dream university."
"In your career, you were just one step away from being promoted to the position of deputy manager."
"Later, you started a business with your friends, and you were just a little bit away from succeeding."
"You find that it seems like everything you want and strive for, you put in tremendous effort, but you always just lack that little bit of luck, right?"
Gray Fruit was already shocked to hear this.
No fortune teller has ever explained his story so clearly.
Comment: [This guy's ended up like this, oh, he's been frustrated and unsuccessful.]
There are countless ordinary people who fail to succeed.
Gray Fruit saw the comments and said, "What do you know? If you had experienced the kind of despair I feel every time I'm about to succeed but always fall short by just a little bit, you wouldn't be making sarcastic remarks here."
Comments: [We don't understand, but isn't this your own fault?]
Perhaps because this middle-aged man brought so much negative energy to the live stream, some viewers were inexplicably angered by him.
Bai Xi took a sip of tea. "Even your girlfriend of several years, whom you thought was a done deal, broke up with you on the day you were supposed to get your marriage certificate because the bride price was a thousand yuan less, right?"
Comments: [It's only a difference of 1,000 yuan, how can this cause a falling out? If it's about that 1,000 yuan, it can be repaid later if necessary.]
[That's why the host said that destined people are always just a little bit off.]
Why is it always just a little short?
I'm curious too.
[This might be related to the experience of changing one's luck that the streamer mentioned at the beginning.]
The gray fruit remained silent.
Bai Xi continued, "Because from childhood to adulthood, no matter what you do, it always seems like you're just a little bit short. At first, you didn't believe in fate and thought it was because you didn't work hard enough. But after this happened again and again, you started to believe in fate."
