Seeing Little Hou's sweet smile, the viewers couldn't stay calm.
"No way? Is it really that easy to pick up girls?"
"Damn, just finished eating and I've been fed a mouthful of dog food!"
"Stop... stop... stop... don't force-feed me, I can eat by myself!"
"Tomorrow, I'll go to Rongcheng, seek help online for tips, and bring a girl home. The plan is foolproof!"
"I'm just afraid the one who writes you the tips won't be a girl but a dude!"
"Hahaha, Rongcheng is famous for having many gay people; even a dog passing by would get poked twice!"
"Damn, that just makes me even more excited!"
"More and more gay people, how many more are there?"
Lu Heng listened with a smile and asked, "Young Friend Hou, what's up with your online girlfriend's aunt and uncle?"
"Here's the thing..."
Upon hearing this, Little Hou quickly explained the situation.
It turns out that half a year ago, his online girlfriend flew over for a night of passion with him.
Afterward, his online girlfriend said her aunt and uncle wanted to settle in the south and asked for Little Hou's opinion.
She also mentioned that in her family, her aunt and uncle had significant influence.
If he could take good care of her aunt and uncle, then the marriage would be practically nailed down.
Upon hearing this, how could Little Hou hold back?
He immediately promised to have her aunt and uncle live with him.
They could familiarize themselves with the environment and, if suitable, move the whole family there.
In order to turn his online girlfriend into his wife, he was willing to do anything.
Taking good care of her aunt and uncle was certainly a way to score points.
So, when her aunt and uncle arrived, he took great care of them.
Such actions naturally won his online girlfriend's favor.
Their relationship was very intimate, as if their marriage was just around the corner.
The viewers, hearing Little Hou's account, had varied reactions, but all felt an indescribable sense of something odd.
But exactly what was strange, they couldn't pinpoint at the moment.
Could it be that Little Hou's online girlfriend was a fraud?
But she not only met him in person but also let her aunt and uncle stay at Little Hou's place.
This situation was completely different from those usual online scams.
But if she's not a fraud, they had only met a handful of times over five years.
The last meeting even involved arranging for two elders to stay.
If the elders could live there, why couldn't she?
Lu Heng subtly shook his head.
It's often said that women in love have zero IQ.
For god's sake, men in love don't have a positive IQ either!
Lu Heng asked again, "Young Friend Hou, why exactly can't your online girlfriend move to your city and live with you?"
"Regarding this point, I was quite puzzled initially."
"But later on, she explained it to me in detail..."
Little Hou patiently explained, "She said her family is quite traditional and strict."
"Girls must be over twenty-three to marry and can't marry outside their hometown."
"She's always been strictly managed by her parents, making it hard to go far, only occasionally playing with friends for two or three days."
"In that time, she had to fly thousands of miles to see me."
"Recently, I subtly asked her aunt and uncle and got the same explanation from them."
Lu Heng sighed and continued, "Young Friend Hou, haven't you noticed any problems?"
"What problems?"
Little Hou looked confused and dumbfounded.
Lu Heng guided patiently, "Let me ask, since her aunt and uncle came, hasn't the contact time with your online girlfriend decreased?"
"Yes."
Little Hou nodded and explained, "She said she was preparing for graduate school, which I understood."
Lu Heng ignored him and continued, "Did she also say that—pretending to prepare for exams—you can't contact her, and only she can contact you?"
"Yes!"
Little Hou nodded again, further clarifying for his online girlfriend, "I understand; after all, one should focus on preparing for graduate school. It's better to minimize phone use."
Lu Heng smiled dismissively and went on, "In the past six months, whenever she contacted you, did she ask you to go outside because she was shy and didn't want her aunt and uncle to hear?"
"Immortal, you're amazing!"
Little Hou looked shocked.
Was this some kind of fortune-telling?
It was like someone personally checked his memory!
His experiences over the past six months were unknown even to his family.
He himself had forgotten some situations.
Yet the Immortal could recount it better than he could.
This guy must be a living Immortal!
"We were exchanging sweet nothings, not suitable for the elders to hear."
After coming back to his senses, Little Hou still defended her.
Seeing Little Hou repeatedly defending his online girlfriend, Lu Heng shook his head.
He sighed again, "Young Friend Hou, I've asked you so much already, haven't you realized anything?"
"Huh?"
Little Hou looked blank, eyes bewildered, utterly at a loss.
While he was blinded by love, the viewers in the live stream were the bystanders!
They quickly grasped the situation.
"Bro, the Immortal means you've been scammed!"
"Of course, online dating is completely unreliable; being like Cai, living off a woman, is the way to go!"
"Buddy, she's a... a... a... scammer!"
"I knew something felt off; turns out it's really a scam!"
"Five years of just a few meets, how could it not be a scam?"
"Exactly, half a year ago, I met my online date, got married, and now the kid is almost born."
"Pfft... bro, your online date sure gives birth quickly!"
"This is outrageous, strung along for five years, really impressive!"
"Being strung along for five years is one thing, but he's also been taking care of her aunt and uncle for six months."
"It's not too bad; at least Little Hou met the real person."
"Little bro, stop dawdling and call the police!"
Seeing the relentless barrage of pop-up comments, Little Hou furrowed his eyebrows.
He still didn't get it, "How could she be a scammer?"
"And why scam me? I haven't lost anything?"
Lu Heng, having heard enough, was utterly convinced.
No wonder there are too many fools, not enough scammers.
Little Hou is the epitome of it!
Duped into circles, yet he actively explains for her.
Damn, he's the star performer of the third grade, second class...
Truly a class A achievement!
"Sigh!"
He sighed helplessly, "Young Friend Hou, haven't you forgotten that just two months ago, she borrowed a hundred thousand from you, claiming her father was ill?"
"Oh, I actually forgot!"
Upon hearing this, Little Hou suddenly realized.
Yet he didn't forsake his loyal nature and explained for her, "She showed me the hospital documents and receipts; it was definitely used for treatment."
"I find it quite normal, nothing strange..."
