Master, Your Wife Has Become a Super Star Through Fortune-Telling

Chapter 341 - 343: Forever Losing the Beloved

"For the sake of your pretty face, I’ll let it slide. How about this: why don’t you try telling me my basic information?"

Su Nian put on a troubled expression, glancing up at him as a strange glint flashed in her eyes.

After a moment, Su Nian asked, "Aren’t you afraid of your private information getting out? Or can I say whatever I want?"

Seeing Su Nian’s hesitant expression, her fans started getting antsy.

They had seen this all before and knew Su Nian’s style, so they couldn’t wait to watch the drama unfold.

[The moment I saw the streamer’s face, I knew this guy was secretly a piece of work.]

[Pfft, who needs the streamer or her expression? I could tell just from this guy’s creepy moves.]

[Definitely. He’s probably a freeloader who lives off women.]

[Not necessarily. I’m getting major social climber vibes too.]

[Ladies, let’s not talk about that. I just wish I could unsee his videos.]

[What’s all this? Let me go have a look.]

Seeing comments like that, many curious viewers flooded his profile page.

Love-Free and Unburdened saw the view count on his dashboard surging and a smirk spread across his face.

’See? He knew it. He had successfully captured the attention of all these women.’

In reality, however, he had just invited another wave of mockery.

[Your mouth is crooked like a checkmark.]

[That’s a Nike swoosh, got it?]

[My bad. Never seen a swoosh that long before.]

As for him, Su Nian’s expression didn’t even register. To him, it was just a ploy to curry his favor.

’She’s just pretending to be troubled. What can I say? I’m just that charming.’

He once again ran a hand through his hair. It was dyed an ashen brown and was already as dry as straw.

He tried to flip his hair, but it was too brittle to move. He ran his hand through it again, and this time, by jerking his head, he finally managed to get it to swing. He imagined his hair was flowing elegantly, his movements suave.

’He had surely, without even trying, captured the hearts of countless women once more.’

He couldn’t help but feel smug.

"Go on and speak," he said. "I have nothing to fear."

Watching him deliberately put on a confident act, Su Nian felt her skin crawl.

’I’ve never seen someone so sleazy...’

Clearing her throat, Su Nian fixed her crystal-clear eyes directly on him.

"Your name is Li Erzhu, and you’re twenty-nine years old."

Love-Free and Unburdened, who had just been affecting an air of nonchalant coolness, froze. His face went rigid.

His mouth hung open, as if he couldn’t comprehend what Su Nian had just said.

’How the hell does she know my name is Li Erzhu?!’

’Shit! Did she really dig that up?’

’Don’t tell me this woman secretly investigated me?’

’That makes sense. I’m a bit of a celebrity now. She probably did investigate me.’

At that thought, he pulled himself together and once again ran a hand through his straw-like hair.

"You’re mistaken. That’s just a funny nickname my fans gave me. My real name is Lance."

He casually made up an excuse, blurting out the stage name he used back when he was a gigolo.

He said it with brazen confidence, not feeling the least bit embarrassed. He had long since developed a thick skin.

But he was also getting scared. From the looks of it, this streamer already had all his information.

If she exposed all the sordid things he’d done in the past... well, he still had a reputation to maintain.

He cleared his throat and stood up, feigning a calm and composed demeanor as his eyes drifted toward Su Nian’s face.

"How about this: why don’t you tell me what misfortunes I’ll be running into lately?"

Su Nian narrowed her eyes, her expression turning strange, as if she’d run into a problem.

But when Su Nian’s fans saw this look, they only grew more curious. What on earth was going to happen to this dude?

[Don’t tell me he’s not going to have any bad luck, but he’s going to win the lottery instead?]

[Could be. Look at that smug face of his!]

[Maybe his luck really has been outstandingly good lately!]

Before Su Nian could even speak, Love-Free and Unburdened’s lips twisted back into that Nike-swoosh smirk.

"If you can’t think of anything, don’t bother. My luck has been incredible lately. A few days ago, I randomly bought some stock, and today it’s already paid off big time. My investment multiplied thirty-fold! I’m worth several hundred thousand now."

He declared, puffed up with pride.

’I knew it,’ he thought. ’This is all just an act. How could something as magical as fortune-telling actually exist in this world?’

’Even if there was some truth to the occult, they wouldn’t have a beauty like her doing it. This is definitely just a marketing gimmick—the ’hot master’ routine.’

’Good thing I’m smart enough to see through it all.’

The more he thought about it, the more pleased with himself he became, completely failing to notice Su Nian’s expression growing stranger by the second.

Amid the audience’s looks of anticipation, confusion, and the man’s own smug satisfaction, Su Nian finally spoke.

Her words didn’t sound like a prediction of his future, but more like a curse.

Su Nian cleared her throat and spoke with grave seriousness.

"In five minutes, you will lose what you love forever."

The Nike-swoosh smirk on Love-Free and Unburdened’s face seemed to freeze in place. Slowly, his jaw dropped, and he let out a confused sound.

"Huh?"

The viewers were baffled as well.

[What kind of misfortune is that? Is his girlfriend going to dump him or something?]

[What does she mean? Did his girlfriend run off with another guy?]

[Or maybe his one true love never loved him in the first place!]

[I’ve got it! Did the one that got away move abroad?]

The viewers threw out a slew of wild guesses, but after a moment, Love-Free and Unburdened burst out laughing. It was a loud, booming laugh.

He couldn’t stop himself from shooting Su Nian a mocking look.

"Can you even tell a fortune properly? I live by my name, Love-Free and Unburdened. I never truly love anyone. How could I possibly ’lose what I love forever’?"

He was quite proud of this fact. He had played the field for years, making a good deal of money off his looks. Some rich older women were particularly fond of his sleazy charm.

But he knew the score and had never invested any real emotions.

He’d done plenty of outrageous things, but being in a proper relationship or actually falling for someone? That had never happened. So for Su Nian to say this now seemed utterly ridiculous.

But Su Nian’s expression only grew more peculiar. She simply shook her head gently.

She opened her mouth to say, "You have three minutes left."

"In three minutes, you will lose what you love forever."

Su Nian repeated herself with grave sincerity, but the man’s expression only grew more contemptuous.

’This woman is beautiful, but is she not right in the head?’

But in the next second, his assistant called him.

The ringtone was loud, sounding jarringly out of place during the livestream.

He put the call on speaker. His expression was a little strange, because it had been exactly three minutes.
