Chapter 24 - 21: Edgy Teen and Scooter Kid

"Fortune telling? So you’re a fortune teller!"

"I joined the livestream because I saw there were a lot of people, didn’t expect there to be fortune-telling here too."

"No wonder you’re wearing that Taoist robe!"

The energetic young man was momentarily stunned upon hearing this, and then he suddenly realized.

"I don’t believe in fate. I believe ’my destiny is in my hands, not from heaven’!"

After saying that, he wore a face full of pride, bursting with youthful arrogance.

"Oh right, Taoist, what do you think of my new motorcycle?"

The young man turned his phone, revealing a Kawasaki Little Ninja in the frame.

He then hopped on the motorcycle, revved it a few times, and laughed heartily, "Cool or what? Cool or what?"

This scene left not just Lu Heng speechless, but also rendered the viewers speechless.

"Damn, turns out not just an energetic young man, but a ghost fire youth too!"

"Vroom vroom vroom... when the ghost fire roars, parents are just raising him for nothing!"

"A flip of the bike, cover with cloth, relatives and friends wait for the dishes. Trumpets blow and firecrackers sound, straight to the crematorium!"

"Dammit, if you’re not here for fortune-telling, why disrupt the stream?"

"Hurry home and drink some milk!"

"Ghost fire youth, not a ghost, doesn’t blaze, what a waste of youth!"

"Youngster, it’s fine if you harm yourself, but don’t endanger the lives of other pedestrians!"

"Seeing other car accident compilations makes me heartache and fear, but ghost fire crash compilations, I oddly enjoy..."

Under the double buff of the energetic young man and ghost fire youth, viewers outputted comments furiously.

"You old relics, you all should be the ones taken to the crematorium for refining!"

The energetic young man wasn’t just any ordinary person, not only did he not succumb to attackers, but he even fired back with everyone.

"Ahem ahem!"

Lu Heng cleared his throat gently, and quickly said, "If you’re not here for a fortune, then please disconnect the mic link!"

"Who said I wouldn’t?!"

The young man raised an eyebrow, full of disdain. "Are you any good at fortune-telling?"

"If you think you’re good enough, then tell my fortune."

"Let me see how capable you are, or else I’ll report you to the platform for promoting feudal superstitions!"

Seeing the other questioning his fortune-telling ability, Lu Heng laughed.

"Then please wait a moment!"

Saying this, he silently called out the Celestial Destiny System in his heart.

"System, check this person’s past!"

[System alert: Checking past information, will consume three days of the host’s lifespan, continue?]

"Yes!"

Soon, the young man’s past unfolded before his eyes.

Given that the other person had just turned fifteen, it didn’t take long for him to see everything.

"You, my young friend, just celebrated your fifteenth birthday yesterday."

"This motorcycle was a birthday gift from your uncle."

Lu Heng said unhurriedly.

"Damn, you really can tell fortunes, huh?"

The young man couldn’t help but look surprised when he heard this.

But then he shook his head, denying, "I know, you must have checked my livestream account."

"All my personal information on this account is true."

"If you looked at it, you’d surely know when my birthday is."

"As for this motorcycle, it’s a new batch gift, easy to guess it’s a birthday present."

Lu Heng chuckled lightly and replied unhurriedly, "Please continue listening, my young friend..."

"Your mother is known for her elegant beauty, often called the village’s ’flower’."

"However, your mother and father weren’t each other’s first love."

"Originally, your mother dated your uncle, but he had to leave the area for university after getting accepted."

"In your mother’s home, she was pressured into marrying your father."

"Though marrying a beauty, your father had a drinking problem and often lashed out against you and your mother."

"Seven years ago, he passed away from a drunk driving accident."

"Your uncle, after achieving career success, disregarded the family’s dissuasion and married your mother knowing her past."

"Post-marriage, your uncle treated you better than your own father."

"Even though you wished to call him ’dad,’ your vanity stops you, fearing ridicule from your peers..."

After hearing all this, the young man was completely dumbfounded.

This was the damned truth of his past fifteen years!

Whether it was the alcoholic deceased father, or the uncle who treated him like a son, it was utterly true.

What shamed him more was how the other person even knew his thoughts.

His poor academic performance, his frequent outings with delinquents...

Once those delinquents discovered his family situation, they mocked his mother for being unfaithful, involved with her brother-in-law.

He was infuriated but dared not retort.

That’s the main reason why, despite his mother’s several urges, he didn’t want to address his uncle as ’dad.’

He dreaded facing those delinquents’ ridicule again.

"What you said, it’s all false!"

"Fake! Fake!"

Being prideful, the young man naturally denied it fervently.

"Hehe!"

Lu Heng smiled quietly and said, "Don’t rush, I haven’t finished yet!"

"What I just mentioned was your family background."

"Now, let’s talk about your personal experiences..."

Suddenly, a sense of dread filled the young man’s heart.

Yet he was unwilling to admit defeat, several times wanting to speak but ultimately refrained.

Lu Heng naturally noted this boy’s reaction, smiling as he continued, "You haven’t attended school much in the past year, have you?"

"Actually, you’re quite smart, but just can’t focus on studying."

"Why can’t you focus on studying? It’s because you have a crush on your class president."

"In hopes of leaving a lasting impression on her, you often act contrary to her wishes."

"For instance, she urges you to study, and so you refuse."

"If she warns you away from those delinquents, you intentionally stick with them."

"You... stop spouting nonsense!"

Stung by the exposure of his secret, the young man’s face turned red, and he hurriedly tried to refute.

And seeing this, the viewers burst into laughter.

"Oh wow, truly in rebellion phase, huh?"

"This is hilarious, you’re really leaving a deep impression, such that just mentioning you already irritates her!"

"Young man, speaking as someone your age once, your methods are obsolete!"

"From what the Taoist just said, you’re not a bad kid, cut ties with those delinquents quickly, and head back to school!"

"Yeah, while you still have the chance, return to the right path!"

"Still so young, and already a rebellious puppy love chaser, truly pitiful!"

"Don’t wander aimlessly in society, otherwise you’ll regret it when you’re older."

"So precocious! If you have a crush in middle school, won’t you be openly in love with many in high school?"

"Others have crushes on campus beauties and class beauties while in school; I was different, I liked our vice-principal. That hourglass figure... tsk tsk..."

"You’ve truly been mature for your age, already having the basis to marry into wealth since childhood!"
