[The Master's expression tells me this is a high-stakes game!]
[Hahahaha, it's rude, but I can't help it! Master, quickly announce the results! I'm a country bumpkin, I can't wait!]
The netizens, seeing Yao Yao's expression, excitedly rubbed their hands together. The overwhelming comments left the Fated Person utterly confused.
He looked over, bewildered, and was about to open his mouth to ask what was happening when Yao Yao's voice cut him off.
"Uncle, you were born on the eighth day of the ninth lunar month in 1972, between nine and twelve at night, weren't you?"
"Hmm... Your Five Elements lack Water, but the Wood and Earth elements are strong, indicating that where you grew up was likely in the depths of a big mountain."
"In your Life Palace, your Official's Rank Palace is illuminated by Purple Radiance. This is a fate of noble assistance, wealth, and ease. So, you must have benefited from a noble person's good fortune and earned a large sum of money."
"However, you yourself are not skilled at managing finances. You used all this money to purchase real estate and save it, didn't you?!"
Yao Yao's large eyes sparkled, and as her words slowly fell, the Fated Person's complexion changed repeatedly.
Finally, he had no choice but to nod. "You… you are absolutely correct. I believe in your abilities now."
To say that at first, when his birth date was calculated, the Fated Person was merely a little shocked.
But when she then immediately followed up by saying he wasn't good at managing finances and that he'd gotten rich with noble assistance, any lingering doubt in the Fated Person's heart was directly dispelled, because it was indeed true.
He had originally entered real estate through an acquaintance, and after enjoying a huge wave of profits, he was promptly guided out again.
Later, he tried his hand at starting businesses, but each time ended in losses. Coupled with attractive bank interest rates, he simply decided to lie flat and live off the interest.
The Fated Person himself was usually very low-key; even his own relatives weren't clear about his family's financial situation. For even this to be calculated, it truly showed great skill.
"Master, I'd like to trouble you to help me calculate when my son will finally get married!"
The Fated Person paused, then stated his request.
Like most parents in the world, he worried tirelessly about his son's marriage.
His son was almost thirty, yet there was no sign of a partner, making him so anxious he constantly developed mouth sores.
Thus, whenever he encountered a fortune teller, he wanted to ask. It was only because he had been scammed out of gifts a few times that he had adopted the verification method just now.
However, facing the Fated Person's question, Yao Yao interrupted him.
"Uncle, what you should be concerned about right now isn't your son, but your wife."
"If you don't stop her soon, the last property in your home will also be lost by her."
This was also the reason for Yao Yao's slight change in expression. The Fated Person's Wealth Palace showed Sha Po Lang guarding and illuminating, and Kong Jie transforming into Ji.
Simply put, these were signs of losing all family possessions.
And the Fated Person himself had a tendency to save money, so he naturally wouldn't have a fondness for gambling. The problem lay with the other person in his Spouse Palace.
What fortune-telling said about husband and wife being one was not an empty phrase; it included finances, career, family relationships, and so on.
Therefore, even though the Fated Person saved money, if his wife lost it, he would be affected just the same.
"How is that possible? Xiuju only likes to play a bit of Mahjong; how could she lose that much?"
The Fated Person was utterly shocked by her words, his eyes filled with disbelief.
He knew he owned four properties, and they were all in a tier-one city like S City.
According to current market prices, each house was worth at least several million, meaning she had lost at least tens of millions!
As for why "at least," it was because if it reached the point of losing houses, would there still be bank savings?
The Fated Person was aware of his wife's hobby. Fearing she might be scammed outside, he specifically opened a Mahjong parlor. How could she lose so much in her own establishment?
"If you don't believe me, you can look for your household passbooks and property deeds. You should know where they are. After you see them, you'll understand."
Yao Yao gently reminded him.
The Fated Person's eyes lit up. Perhaps this matter was too unbelievable for him. He dared not delay for a moment and frantically rushed into the inner room.
His phone, meanwhile, was casually left on its stand.
The discussion in the live stream went wild.
[Oh my god, this is exciting! If someone told me my retirement money, saved for half a lifetime, was gone, I'd really have a cerebral hemorrhage.]
[Doesn't the Fated Person check his accounts? According to the Master, there's only one house left!]
[This gambling is too extreme. Could he have been set up? If so, I could believe it.]
[The truth remains to be seen, but one thing is certain: the Fated Person is truly miserable. This is a lifetime of savings!]
Although they didn't know the exact extent of the loss, netizens could roughly estimate the housing prices based on the Fated Person's IP location.
Upon calculating, the comment section filled with gasps of cold air.
Before long, the Fated Person returned, his face pale. His eyes were unfocused, and his voice trembled.
"It's gone, everything's gone!"
At this moment, he was on the verge of collapsing. The moment his distraught appearance showed up, how could netizens not know the outcome?
Seeing the latter's collapsing emotions, Yao Yao couldn't help but offer comfort. "Uncle, your aunt lost so much because she fell into someone's trap."
"What you need to do now is call the police, get them arrested first, and then figure out how to recover that money."
She sighed faintly. The Fated Person was too indecisive in his actions. He was able to make a fortune back then entirely thanks to the noble person's guidance.
Later, his wife managed all the household affairs, which only further cultivated his hands-off nature. Now that something had gone wrong, he couldn't come up with a single idea.
"Okay… okay. I'll call the police right away." The Fated Person was utterly distraught at this moment, completely oblivious to the risk his wife faced of being arrested.
However, making a phone call would consume the network, and the live stream would then be cut off. The Fated Person hastily stopped pressing the dial button and instead used the landline to call the police.
Currently, large-scale gambling is prohibited in the country. Once reported, the police would certainly come to arrest people; the lightest punishment would be detention.
"Master, what then? What else should I do?"
The Fated Person was completely at a loss, having finally grasped a straw of hope, he dared not let go.
Seeing his desperate gaze, Yao Yao felt a bit helpless.
"Uncle, I also want to help you, but right now I can't give you an answer, because it requires the police uncles to investigate."
"You can send me your contact information in the backend. Once there's further progress and evidence, I'll help you deal with it."
The troublesome part of this matter was that she didn't have any information about those who set up the trap. Even if she were to try to deduce it, it wouldn't be accurate.
Therefore, the immediate priority was indeed the results of the police investigation. As long as there were clues, it wouldn't be difficult for her to deduce.
Yao Yao also harbored a deep hatred for such organizations that tricked people out of their money and ruined families.
