Chapter 175
The boy who was chosen was Wang Linyan, who had overheard his grandmother talking and sneaked into the live stream. The girl he wanted Qin Su to help him calculate was his deskmate, Cheng Yue.
When Wang Linyan heard Qin Su say that Cheng Yue should have died young, he was shocked and subconsciously retorted, "That's impossible! She's already sixteen!"
Qin Su wasn't annoyed and said calmly, "I told you, something unexpected happened to her."
Wang Linyan asked, "What accident?"
Qin Su said, "I'm not entirely sure about the specifics."
Wang Linyan: "..."
If Qin Su had opened her mouth and said a lot of things, Wang Linyan might still have doubts. But because she was so straightforward and couldn't explain clearly, Wang Linyan was more likely to believe her.
He looked down at Cheng Yue's photo and said weakly, "You...you're a fortune teller, aren't you..."
"My skill level is limited." Qin Su started talking nonsense again, "The Celestial Master graduation exam only gets you 60 points."
Wang Linyan's attention wandered: "The Celestial Master graduation exam? You even have a special school for that?"
Qin Su: "Yes, it's in the mysterious city center, where ordinary people can't see it. They mainly rely on owls to deliver messages and communicate."
Wang Linyan: "?"
Why does that sound so familiar?
[Holy crap, this is a local version of Hogwarts!]
[I'm confused. Was the streamer joking or serious? I can't tell.]
I always feel like anything a stunningly beautiful woman says is believable...
Wang Linyan was reminded by the comments that the voice sounded familiar. He was both amused and exasperated, and his earlier tension subsided considerably.
"Are you kidding? You're being so serious."
Qin Su remained noncommittal: "Just take this as a joke, so what do you want me to be?"
Wang Linyan: "I want to have her fate told, is it...is it..."
He stared at the rapidly scrolling comments on the screen, wondering if Cheng Yue was watching the live stream.
If she was watching a live stream and just heard the host say that she was destined to die young, what would she think? Would she be sad?
If the next result the anchor calculates is unpleasant, and she happens to hear it, wouldn't that make things even worse?
Was he really doing this for her own good?
Wang Linyan hesitated for a moment, but still said, "Let's see if she has bad luck."
"She has bad luck?" Qin Su looked at him strangely. "She was someone who shouldn't have lived past 7 years old, but she's still alive now. That's like having her lifespan extended. If that's bad luck, what kind of good luck is it?"
Wang Linyan was taken aback.
That seems to make sense?
An angle I never imagined has been added.
[Bad news: You should have died long ago; good news: You've lived this long, so all things considered, you're actually lucky?]
Wang Linyan pressed further, "Then she's definitely not some jinx, right?"
Qin Su: "Of course not, what jinx is there in this world?"
Wang Linyan breathed a sigh of relief: "That's good."
Qin Su also earnestly educated him: "Be scientific. A comet is a celestial body, not a person. It's in the solar system. If you want to see it from Earth, you need a telescope."
Wang Linyan: "..."
[In a daze, a fortune teller is online, advising everyone to believe in science.]
[That sounds correct; the comet is indeed a broom star, but something seems off.]
[Actually, this is a roundabout way of telling people not to believe in the superstition of being a jinx. It doesn't sound good to anyone to be called a jinx, and judging from this young man's question, there seems to be a story behind it.]
Just then, Wang Linyan's phone chimed with a new message.
He saw that the message was from Cheng Yue, and quickly clicked to read it.
Cheng Yue: [Photo.jpg]
Cheng Yue: [Show her my sister's picture.]
Wang Linyan: [Why did you show her your sister's picture?]
Cheng Yue: [Give it to me when I tell you to, hurry up.]
Wang Linyan was puzzled, but he still saved Cheng Yue's sister Cheng Xingxing's photo to his phone and then transferred it to his iPad as Cheng Yue requested.
Qin Su seemed about to hang up the video call: "Is everything alright? If not, that's all for today..."
"Wait! Wait a minute, host!" Wang Linyan frantically held up his iPad. "Host, could you please take another look at this person?"
【What? This person? Isn't this the same person as before?】
Does my younger brother have some kind of amnesia? He forgot what he just calculated?
[She seems a bit different from the girl before? The girl before her had short, cool hair, while this girl has long hair and looks much gentler.]
[They're just different hairstyles; their facial features are exactly the same.]
"It's not the same person." Qin Su glanced at the screen and answered the questions raised by the viewers for Wang Linyan. "This is a relative of that girl from earlier... They look so alike, are they twins?"
"Yes, yes, yes." Wang Linyan didn't expect that Qin Su had already figured it out before he could even say anything.
He quickly moved the photo closer, "Answerer, can you take another look at her?"
Qin Su coldly replied, "No, you've already used up your chance."
Wang Linyan exclaimed "Ah!" He had originally wanted to give up, but he looked at his chat with Cheng Yue with some difficulty. He felt guilty because Cheng Yue rarely wanted to know something, and he hadn't done it for her yet.
"I can pay more!" Wang Linyan said with a desperate look. "I'll pay for another divination!"
Is my younger brother really that rich?
[The boss is generous!]
[Hilarious! Is it possible that the top spender on the streamer's donation list will be a minor?]
So, how much does it cost to buy a divination slip? I'm also very interested.
Qin Su chuckled lazily. Leaning back in her chair, she beckoned, and an adorable cat jumped into her lap.
Viewers didn't know if the streamer had used beauty filters, but they could see that she had dark eyebrows and eyes and snow-white skin, and her beauty was stunning under the lights.
When she blinked, the gray shadow cast by her fluttering eyelashes beneath her eyes was like a raven feather flitting across the snow, making one's heart skip a beat.
"Do I look like I'm short of money?" Qin Su said casually.
[Hehe, the streamer looks like my wife!]
I was staring at the screen for a while when suddenly my hand got wet. I realized I was drooling. Luckily, no one was home.
[Speaking of which, what's the streamer's real name? Gengsheng? What does that mean?]
Self-reliance?
[No way, "rebirth" together forms the character "Su," so it should be "Su"? "Su Xing" means "to awaken" or "to revive." Is the streamer's surname "Su"?]
[Got it, my wife's last name is Su, I'll write it down!]
"Besides money, what else?" Wang Linyan asked anxiously. "The streamer can make demands."
Qin Su stroked the cat, ignoring the watchful Xiao Long beside her: "Is the girl you're helping with fortune telling watching a live stream?"
Wang Linyan hesitated, thinking of the message Cheng Yue had just sent him, and said, "Are you there...?"
Qin Su: "I want to play online with her."
Wang Linyan: "Why? Haven't we already seen her photos?"
“How can a photo be the same as the real person? Besides, the second person you're calculating is clearly related to her,” Qin Su said. “Ask her now if she counts or not. If she doesn’t, I’m ending the live stream.”
Wang Linyan: "Let me ask."
But before he could even message Cheng Yue to ask, someone in the live chat had already posted a message;
Yes, that's me.
