"Handsome Xiao, I brought my fans to support you! All eighty-plus people in the group came!"
"Thanks, gorgeous Tang."
Thanks to her two Super Rockets and the arrival of over eighty fans, his livestream finally had a bit of an audience. Random viewers were finally starting to trickle in.
There were only around a hundred viewers in total, but it was a good start.
"Streamer, I heard you saved our Xiaoxiao's life with fortune-telling? I don't buy it! I'm going to expose your scam! Tell my fortune. How does this work?"
"Haha, Lord Purple is making her move."
"That's Xiaoxiao's Top Supporter for you! I knew you'd be the first to step up!"
"Go, Lord Purple!"
The few random viewers who had just joined were a little confused.
"Saved her life? What happened? This guy saved that female streamer with fortune-telling?"
"Yeah, apparently this guy can predict the future. We don't believe it, so we came as a group to expose him!"
"Predict the future? Damn, I'd like to see what stories this charlatan comes up with to fool people!"
"Haha, front-row seats to the show!"
Seeing that there was a show to watch, the random viewers were delighted.
People who browsed livestreams already loved a bit of excitement. On top of that, it was after work, so they all had plenty of time to spare.
"We'll connect by video. If my reading is wrong, you pay nothing. If it's right, just send me a Rocket."
"Sure, let's do it! Let's see how you tell my fortune!"
Smiling, Xiao Yu connected with the user whose screen name was "Lord Purple."
"Wow, our Top Supporter is this gorgeous? She's even prettier than Xiaoxiao! Boss lady, I'll be your die-hard fan. Why don't you start streaming too?"
"Lord Purple is so beautiful! Is this the legendary mature queen type?"
"Rich, fair-skinned, and gorgeous! Please be my sugar mommy!"
Lord Purple ignored them. She had heard plenty of remarks like that.
With a sneer, she stared challengingly at Xiao Yu. "Streamer, if you're so capable, why don't you guess my name first?"
"Turn off your beauty effects and filters first, then remove your makeup."
"Hahaha, I don't have any of those on, and I'm not wearing makeup. You can't even tell? How embarrassing!"
"Lord Purple is amazing! She's prettier than Xiaoxiao even without makeup! From now on, Xiaoxiao can play the games while Lord Purple shows her face. We'll send you gifts!"
"The fortune-telling streamer just got put in his place! He can't even tell the difference between technology and real beauty, yet he claims to tell fortunes. Hahaha, I'm dying!"
"Look how embarrassed he is! Just waiting for him to end the stream and run away!"
Their mockery was dripping with malice!
These fans of Tang Xiaoxiao were intensely hostile toward Xiao Yu.
They were dead set on believing Xiao Yu was a fraud.
"Zhao Yan, twenty-seven, owner of Beauty Like Jade Cosmetics Company. Last year, you expanded your company to its largest size ever and earned a total of 3.35 million yuan."
"A gorgeous CEO?"
"Ten thousand a day! Rich and beautiful!"
"Awesome!"
Zhao Yan was slightly startled. "Oh, you've got some skills! Keep going, handsome. Anyone can find that information online!"
"Miss Zhao grew up in a wealthy family and was always the model child other parents compared their children to. You excelled in both character and academics, were well-behaved and bright, and were also beautiful. Through high school, you had the image of a gentle goddess. But in college, your player boyfriend cheated on you, and you became an ice queen. After graduating, you shut everyone out and devoted yourself to building your business..."
Zhao Yan lost her composure.
How did this man know so much about her?
"That's nothing special either. I'm not all that rich, but I'm pretty confident in my looks. It's hardly unimaginable that someone might have looked into me and posted my information online!"
"All right, it seems that isn't enough to convince you. I'll have to mention something only you know... but are you sure you want me to say it out loud?"
Zhao Yan panicked inwardly, but she figured Xiao Yu was only putting on an act.
Something only I know? Then how would you know? You can only guess!
But she was sure this streamer could never possibly guess her secret!
"Go ahead. If you really get it right, I'll admit you're good and send you a Rocket right away!"
"Heh, beautiful Zhao, you're awfully brave, actually daring me to say it..." Xiao Yu gave her an odd grin. "The reason you follow Tang Xiaoxiao and send her so many gifts is that you have feelings for her, right?"
"How did you know?!"
As soon as Zhao Yan said it, she clapped a hand over her mouth in panic, her expression bashful and her eyes flustered!
"Damn, you really do know your stuff. You win!"
She quickly composed herself, regained her confidence, and sent Xiao Yu a Rocket.
She really was a mature queen.
There was nothing coy or affected about her.
The livestream chat immediately erupted!
"Xiaoxiao! Hurry up and accept Lord Purple's confession!"
"Holy shit, the Top Supporter likes Xiaoxiao! Things are looking very sapphic!"
"My long-dormant DNA is stirring again!"
"The lilies back home are blooming!"
"The world is about to have two more male bachelors! Same-sex love really is true love!"
Tang Xiaoxiao was dumbfounded too.
For her, this was far more of a shock than a pleasant surprise.
She had a crush on a guy!
But this was her Top Supporter, who had given her so many gifts. Watching everyone egg them on, she was at her wits' end.
Suddenly, she remembered something. Looking ashen, she sent Xiao Yu a private message.
"Handsome Xiao Yu, I just remembered. You saved me, but you haven't finished reading my love life!"
"My love life? Don't worry, it isn't what you're thinking. You're destined to grow old alone."
"...Is there any way to change that?"
"Come back for another reading tomorrow."
"All right!"
Of course Xiao Yu was happy to help. It counted as a good deed, earning him both merit and cultivation.
"Since you've sent a Rocket, it's time for me to tell your fortune. Miss Zhao, what would you like to know about? Love, career, wealth, or health?"
Zhao Yan frowned. "I only wanted to expose you. I didn't expect you to actually be this good. Fine, just read everything!"
"Everything? That won't do. You can only ask about one thing at a time, or you'll suffer terrible bad luck. Pick whichever you like and come back tomorrow."
"Hmm... I'd really like to ask about love, but there's something else I care about more."
Zhao Yan suddenly furrowed her brow and sank into thought.
"Streamer, can you divine anything?"
"Yes."
"Then can you help me divine one specific thing?"
"Of course."
"All right, tell me when that scumbag who toyed with my feelings will suffer some horrible misfortune. Or, to put it more directly, when will he die?"
"..."
"Lord Purple is ruthless!"
"Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned..."
"As expected of the first love who changed both her personality and her sexual orientation..."
Xiao Yu calculated on his fingers, his expression turning strange. "Interesting. Very interesting."
"What is it, streamer? What did you find out?"
"Miss Zhao, if you trust me, come back to my livestream tomorrow. Rather than hear the answer from me now, I believe you'd prefer to see it with your own eyes."
"I can see it tomorrow? Fine! But at least tell me, is that bastard definitely going to suffer?"
"Yes."
Zhao Yan immediately broke into a radiant smile and sent another Rocket!
"Handsome streamer, if I'm satisfied tomorrow, I'll come to you for a reading every day and send you a Rocket every day!"
"You're more than welcome!"
