The way he addressed Chen Meng convinced everyone that they definitely knew each other.
Chen Meng's face was somber, she spoke word by word: "Didn't you say you were in the black market?"
"I can't believe that the boyfriend I've been dating for several months turns out to be my classmate from the same class?"
She did have an impression of this man, but not much.
She only remembered that they occasionally met in the same elective class, but they never spoke.
It was only then that the young man realized he might have been exposed.
His face was full of panic, he stood up instinctively wanting to take Chen Meng away to explain.
"Meng Meng, calm down first, I can explain this."
Then he apologized apologetically to his own teacher, "Sorry, teacher, I..."
He obviously didn't want others to know about their relationship.
But Chen Meng was determined not to let him have his way.
"What do you have to explain?"
"Explain how you're a scammer trying to lure me into a pyramid scheme?"
The young man: ???
The teacher across: ???
"How do you..." He looked guilty, as if his thoughts had been exposed.
The commotion between the two also attracted the other students in the cafeteria to join in the spectacle. Chen Meng explained the whole situation and told him she already reported to the police.
Unexpectedly, after Chen Meng shared her experience, several men and women in the crowd came forward one after another.
They discovered that the person Chen Meng exposed was also the one they were chatting with online...
The young man saw the situation spiraling out of his control, yet he refused to admit his wrongdoings and started arguing back instead.
"How can you accuse me of fraud?"
"You're all still here in school, aren't you?"
...
College students are today's most straightforward group. Upon finding out that such scum was deceiving their classmate, they didn't waste any time before surrounding the individual.
It was said that by the time the police arrived, the scammer had been beaten up so badly that even his own mother wouldn't recognize him.
But no one could point out who hit him, everyone claimed he fell himself, leaving the police no choice but to take him back for investigation.
Since Chen Meng was still online streaming, she walked out of the crowd after kicking him twice.
As she returned to the dormitory, she thanked Mu Yunchu.
"Anchor, thank you so much."
"If it weren't for you, I might still be deceived by him!"
Mu Yunchu, however, shook her head.
"Even if I hadn't told you, you wouldn't have gone traveling with him."
This fated individual simply had bad romantic luck, naive, but not completely devoid of sense and reason.
"You would just be deceived for a bit longer, eventually being hurt by his hot-cold breakup, and then start doubting yourself."
But unexpectedly, after hearing Mu Yunchu say this, Chen Meng was even more grateful. Because what the other party saved was her soul.
[I can totally understand the fated one's feelings because breaking up in a hot-cold manner is really painful. It happened to me with my ex too, leaving me in a long period of self-doubt, feeling very inferiority, thinking I didn't deserve anyone.]
[Indeed, I've been there too. Fortunately, I met my current boyfriend later, who helped me regain my confidence.]
[Let's just say the fated one's money was well spent.]
Chen Meng nodded in agreement, filling the screen with gifts worth at least two thousand in total.
It was all the pocket money she had saved by scrimping and saving.
When she saw people say she would definitely meet someone better in the future, she smirked wistfully.
"Forget it, forget it, maybe I just have poor taste."
Even finding a pyramid scheme scammer, she probably wouldn't think about finding a good man any time soon.
But just then, Mu Yunchu suddenly spoke up, her voice clear and pure, washing away much of the gloom in her heart.
"Actually, it's not that you have poor taste, it's your fate."
"Hmm?" Chen Meng blinked in confusion.
"You have a 'Yan Chi' peach blossom. It should be a good thing, because it's a very famous peach blossom star, indicating that one with this fate would have a very strong attraction to the opposite sex."
Listening to such professional terms, not only Chen Meng, but even the live broadcast audience was dumbfounded.
[Whoa, does this mean the fated one will have an endless stream of romantic opportunities?]
[Yan Chi peach blossom, never heard of it before, I would love to have it.]
[Isn't there more to it, anchor? It's supposed to be good, then what?]
Mu Yunchu continued, "But your Yan Chi peach blossom is in a poor configuration, as it resides in the same palace as 'Qi Sha'."
[I don't understand but it doesn't sound good.]
[The name 'Qi Sha' just sounds eerie...]
"Qi Sha represents pressure and struggle." Mu Yunchu explained slowly, "Yan Chi peach blossom and Qi Sha in the same palace may attract people with strong personalities or dangerous aura in emotional matters. It can even lead to unhealthy relationships, like love triangles or being used by ill-intentioned individuals."
Chen Meng seemed to suddenly recall something: "You're right, anchor!"
"I broke up with my ex-ex-boyfriend because I found out I was the other woman."
She herself found it absurd. Being with someone for six months only to discover he had a longer-term girlfriend, she had been the other woman for half a year!
"I thought it was my poor taste."
"Turns out, it's just my fate."
[Not sure whether to be happy for the fated one.]
[Why does it seem like the latter is worse than the former?]
Chen Meng: "..."
"No need to worry, I have a solution."
Chen Meng: ?
It was like the excitement of thinking you had a terminal illness, only to find out the doctor mixed up the reports.
"Master, what solution do you have?"
Mu Yunchu slowly took out a piece of yellow talisman paper, "This is a 'Harmony Affinity Talisman', carry it with you and you'll avoid bad peach blossoms."
She didn't mention that this thing could also help the wearer quickly find their true match.
"I can mail it to you."
After all, the other party just gave her a lot of gifts, Mu Yunchu didn't plan to charge further.
[???]
[Is this… starting to sell goods live? Anchor, you're too much! You can't fleece the same sheep too much.]
[Is there really such a magical thing? I don't believe it.]
Chen Meng: !!!
Her eyes lit up. But she didn't immediately agree to Mu Yunchu's mailing offer and asked another question.
"Master, do you have a store in Qinghe City?"
"Can I visit?"
"Sure." Mu Yunchu agreed decisively.
Her initial purpose was indeed to promote her shop.
After Chen Meng left satisfied, Mu Yunchu mentioned she still had one fortune-telling slot left for today.
With the previous two examples, the live stream room became extraordinarily lively. More than one viewer wanted to connect for a fortune-telling.
Mu Yunchu found it difficult.
Picking someone seemed unfair.
Until she saw a quickly passing comment, she had a spark of inspiration.
"I know, how about I use a red envelope system, whoever wins it will get the chance for fortune-telling."
As soon as she finished, a glittering gold red envelope icon appeared on the screen, with a three-minute countdown below.
