Online Fortune Telling: Your Son Has Another Dad
Chapter 524 - 522: Loves to Eat Big Bananas
I didn’t expect these silly streaming buddies to have such a sense of justice!
Under everyone’s righteous siege, that senior college student slunk out of the livestream room.
Lu Heng spoke up at this time: "All right, the time has come!"
"Everyone doesn’t need to send gifts anymore!"
"Let’s start drawing the two lucky buddies of the night..."
The streaming buddies heard this and immediately stopped typing, waiting for the birth of tonight’s two lucky buddies.
Lu Heng gently clicked the draw button in the livestream room.
In the blink of an eye, the two lucky buddies were drawn.
He glanced at the names of these two buddies and said with a smile: "Let’s congratulate ’Love to Eat Banana’ and ’Only Love Lollipop’ for being tonight’s lucky buddies!"
As for the birth of these two lucky winners, the streaming buddies naturally gave them a round of applause.
"Clap clap clap... Welcome, welcome... Welcome warmly!"
"Just looking at their names, you can tell they’re the type to stir things up!"
"It’s the usual, didn’t win but feeling happier!"
"Watching someone else’s fun is naturally more joyful than others watching yours!"
"Hope these two lucky buddies keep up the good work and bring us something awesome!"
"Brothers, have you noticed snacks getting more expensive lately?"
"Noticed it long ago. Used to watch the old Taoist’s livestream with snacks and dried fruits, now just sipping tea."
"Damn it! Commodities prices rise, snacks follow, understandable. But when commodities prices drop, food prices stay up, greedy merchants!"
"When pork prices went up, our meat buns, pork cutlet pies, etc. all went up by one or two bucks. Now pork prices are down, but the prices haven’t dropped."
"Finally got the prices up to make some money, you think they’re gonna lower it for you? In your dreams!"
"Everything’s rising, except wages staying stable, not budging at all."
"Not necessarily! My company always finds reasons to fine me, fined me till I quit!"
"Wages go up, spending goes up, wages don’t go up, spending keeps going up... It’s hopeless."
"If merchants earn money, you think they’ll give it back?"
"Only my value isn’t going up, but dropping!"
"Boo hoo hoo, I’m crying, man!"
Lu Heng looked at the messages flashing across the phone screen.
Looking at the topic of discussion, things were starting to go off track.
Lu Heng had no choice but to speak up again: "Let’s invite tonight’s first lucky buddy—’Love to Eat Banana’!"
After saying this, he sent a call invitation to the night’s first lucky buddy.
In less than a minute, the call invitation was accepted.
A young man around twenty-seven or twenty-eight appeared in the livestream room.
He had a medium build, though a bit plump, he didn’t look bloated, but rather gave a friendly vibe.
A friendly smile spread across his round face.
His smiling eyes seemed to lift at the corners, making anyone looking at him feel a little happier.
"Young Friend, good evening!"
"How should I address you?"
Lu Heng asked with a smile.
"Hello, old Taoist!"
"My surname is He, just call me ’Han’."
The young man smiled and gave his name.
"All right, Young Friend Han!"
"Do you have anything you want the old Taoist to help calculate tonight?"
Lu Heng asked again.
"Well..."
Han scratched his head and bit his lip, seeming a bit hesitant.
But in the end, he made up his mind and said directly: "Old Taoist, I’d like you to help calculate my future marriage!"
"Of course!"
Upon hearing this, Lu Heng nodded slightly: "Can you tell a bit about your current situation, Young Friend Han?"
Han hesitated for a moment and then lightly nodded.
"Sigh!"
He first sighed lightly and then, with a reminiscent look, began to tell his story: "My current girlfriend and I met through a matchmaking introduction."
"When we first met, she was still interning, earning only two thousand a month."
"But her rent alone was fifteen hundred."
"Her family, for some reason, never supported her financially."
"After we got together, I practically took care of her daily expenses, almost giving her three thousand a month."
"Later she moved in with me and kept her salary for herself."
"But after not long, she asked me for money, not much, just five hundred."
"At the time, I wondered why she needed money when she was saving all her salary."
"Turns out she lent all her saved money to her brother."
"Knowing the reason, I felt a bit unwilling. In all our time together, she never bought me anything."
"She realized I was upset, so we argued and had a cold war for nearly a week."
At this point, Han couldn’t help but sigh again.
He seemed to have found a confidant, no longer resisting telling his story like before.
He continued speaking: "After the cold war, our relationship returned to how it was."
"Half a month ago, we were set to get married."
"She told me she had to go home to tell her parents about the marriage, and asked me for another five hundred."
"I was preparing for the wedding then, and cash was almost spent."
"But even so, I still transferred five hundred to her."
"However, this time in WeChat, I briefly mentioned the current situation."
"Unexpectedly, she argued with me again, saying since we’re family, why not give money more straightforwardly?"
"You don’t even want to give five hundred, do you still want to get married?"
"Then she kept calling me, trying to argue."
"I was driving on the highway at the time, so I didn’t answer."
"After that, she directly blocked me..."
Upon hearing Han’s story, Lu Heng couldn’t help but frown.
If everything was as Han said, that girl seemed a bit excessive.
Han picked up a cup of water from the table, took a big sip to moisten his throat.
Then, he continued to say: "Before we decided to get married, we were renting a house all the time."
"It’s not that I couldn’t afford it, making her suffer."
"It’s just that I bought two properties, both under construction, not yet handed over."
"My family, in the county mall, holds two shop spots, economically pretty okay."
"I wanted to tease her, so I said, since you could lend your saved money to your brother, could you pitch in for our rental?"
"After hearing my words, she directly said no way!"
"If she had to pay, she’d break up with me..."
