Chen Meng's hands, hidden under the table, clenched tightly together.
Enough!
If it's a headache either way, better to just get it over with!
Upon hearing this, the netizens' Eight Diagrams hearts instantly stirred.
[I think I smell some juicy gossip.]
[Does such a simple matter really require the host's intervention? Share your story, we can all give you some advice!]
[Sister, speaking from experience, trust the woman's sixth sense. If you feel something's off with your man, there's a 99% chance he's seeing someone else.]
...
Seeing this comment, Chen Meng's heart sank halfway, but she still looked at Mu Yunchu with hope, wishing to hear a different answer from her.
With the earlier experience of "broad skies and oceans," Mu Yunchu didn't intend to directly tell her the result she divined, but instead, she briefly recapped her life story.
This way, when someone hears their fortune told, they can make their own judgment.
Holding the fan with two fingers, she spoke softly, "Let me talk about you first."
"You were born into an ordinary family. Although not wealthy, you can be considered well-off. Moreover, your parents are loving and have given you more valuable things than money since childhood. You could say you grew up in a loving environment."
Chen Meng gasped. She's not sure how others read fortunes, but the woman in front of her is eerily accurate.
After all, being much younger and still somewhat naive compared to "broad skies and oceans," her reaction was much larger when faced with surprising revelations.
"Yes, yes, exactly."
"Because they are so loving, it made me yearn for marriage."
From her parents, she even understood what it meant to be 'truly in love as a couple, with kids being a bonus.' This made her always believe that all men in the world were like her father.
But she later found that wasn't the case at all.
Men like her father are one in a million.
Mu Yunchu continued, "You've been sensible and obedient since childhood, simple in nature, and orderly in your ways, so your life has been pretty smooth, with no major setbacks, but this makes you often easy to deceive."
[I really want to translate that for the host: naïve and gullible.]
[In my view, leading a plain, simple life is already the happiest.]
[True, this lady is indeed quite fortunate.]
"You've had a few relationships, but none lasted long, and each time you were the one being dumped."
[No way, such a cute girl often gets dumped?]
Chen Meng was so shocked she couldn't speak for a while, only regaining her voice after some time.
"Host, you're amazing."
"Everything you said is spot on!" She was so excited she was at a loss on how to express her affirmation of Mu Yunchu.
Frankly, she's never faced any major calamities in her life. A happy family, decent studies, even outperforming herself in exams to get into her dream college.
Just like Mu Yunchu said, everything is fine.
But the only thing that baffles her is her love life.
Thinking about love, the head she'd lifted proudly just a moment ago drooped again in the next.
"Actually, you have no lack of romantic opportunities." Seeming to see what she was thinking, Mu Yunchu spoke just in time, "But they're all bad matches."
Chen Meng: "..."
She felt as if she had been seen through.
[Bad matches? So when she first came online, was the lady trying to ask if her boyfriend was cheating?]
[Oh no, from the looks of it, it's a foregone conclusion.]
[Young lady, next time make sure to choose wisely when finding a boyfriend, don't settle for any jerk.]
...
Chen Meng felt terribly wronged by the words.
She wanted to defend herself.
She really had been careful in her choices, but for some reason, the men around her were like chocolate-flavored crap, sweet on the outside, but one taste and it was so nauseating she wanted to vomit.
Mu Yunchu's voice interrupted her spiral of thought.
"I can answer the question you initially asked now."
Chen Meng blinked, having lost all hope for the answer.
"Your boyfriend doesn't have a girlfriend on the side."
"Okay, I got it..." She nodded acceptance while telling Mu Yunchu she understood, but before she finished, she suddenly realized something was wrong.
She jerked her head back up.
Thinking she must have heard it wrong.
"What did you say, host?"
"He's not cheating?"
[Wow!!! Can it really turn out this way?]
[Honestly, this answer was really unexpected. Whoever wrote this plot, I'd give them a drumstick!]
[With how the host built it up earlier, I thought cheating was inevitable.]
Upon learning her boyfriend hadn't betrayed her, Chen Meng felt overwhelming joy rise in her heart, her lips curling into a smile unconsciously, "But that's not right, his attitude towards me doesn't seem like someone who hasn't cheated."
Under the netizens' questions, she briefly explained their current situation.
"I met my boyfriend online."
[Online??? Young lady, you seem sweet but you're actually quite daring, huh?]
Chen Meng rubbed her nose sheepishly,
"It's not that bad. I'm actually quite guarded, it's been half a year together and we haven't even met face-to-face."
Besides, she didn't initially intend to find a boyfriend online, they only met through gaming. Because they coordinated so well, they exchanged contacts thinking they might team up again someday.
[Alright, alright, I can already guess what happened next.]
[Why can others find partners in games but not me?]
[Sorry to intrude, what do you play, lady above?]
[I play Cheng Yaojin, wanna duel?]
[...]
As they played games more frequently, they started chatting in voice, and unknowingly developed a liking for each other.
"He's really different from others."
"Not only is he considerate, but he always manages to cheer me up."
Even if they lost a game and her mood was sour, with her boyfriend around, she could quickly smile again.
What touched Chen Meng the most was finding some of her father's traits in him.
This made her firmly believe she made the right choice this time.
[If it's as good as you say, why then did you suspect he was cheating?]
Chen Meng paused for a moment, and tears flashed in her eyes upon remembering something.
"It probably started a week ago, although his coldness wasn't obvious, I could still feel the difference."
Their chats hadn't changed, but whenever they ended a call, he never initiated contact again.
Sometimes when she called, it even showed he was already on another call.
[This is exactly like my ex. Later I found out he was seeing two others on the side, he was just too busy for me.]
[Host, is it possible you misread it, could you please double-check?]
At this moment, the netizens' distrust towards Mu Yunchu peaked.
"Yeah." Chen Meng's voice was low, "Besides cheating, I can't think of any other reason."
Facing everyone's questions, Mu Yunchu's fan paused for a moment, then she answered, "Because he's a fraud."
