"Itâs been several minutes, and the Daoist still hasnât spoken!"
"According to the usual practice, when the Daoist doesnât speak for a long time, he might have foreseen something unexpected."
"Could it be? Surely, it canât be that the child is no longer alive, right?"
"Itâs quite possible! I guess the Daoist is concocting his words to prevent Brother Zhang and his wife from being too heartbroken."
"This result is just too tragic. Theyâve been searching for ten years, only to hear that the child is dead."
"Yeah, if it were me, I probably wouldnât be able to accept it either!"
"Brother, Sister-in-law, please accept my condolences..."
Seeing that Lu Heng hadnât spoken for a long time, the online viewers couldnât help but let their imaginations run wild.
Sitting in front of the computer, Zhang Wenhai and his wife showed different expressions as they read the scrolling comments on the screen.
Zhang Wenhaiâs expression hadnât changed much.
If there was one change, perhaps it was that the initial panic had faded.
Beside him, his wifeâs eyes were red, her lips tightly pressed.
"Dao... Daoist, have you found out where my son is?"
She asked, her voice trembling, full of hope.
She really couldnât accept that her abducted son was dead just like that.
"I have already divined the result..."
At this moment, Lu Heng suddenly spoke.
"Daoist, where was my son taken?"
"He canât be as others said in the live room, already dead, right?"
The middle-aged woman quickly pursued.
"Donât worry, your son is still alive."
Lu Heng smiled slightly.
He glanced at the comments; these ridiculous viewers really loved to stir up trouble.
"Damn! The kidâs obviously alive, yet you all said he was dead!"
"You bunch of idiots, you really caused unnecessary trouble!"
"Just now, when the Daoist didnât speak, I thought something bad had happened again. Glad the kid isnât dead!"
"I saw it was Celestial Sea Daniel Wu who said the kid was dead, everyone quickly scold him!"
"Whoa, I was just saying it offhandedly, who told you all to take it seriously?"
"Sure enough, this guyâs full of lies, thereâs no trusting any Celestial Sea Daniel Wu."
"Right, people with those kinds of names probably arenât that handsome!"
"Kick him out of the live room, this guyâs bringing down the average attractiveness of the room!"
"I second that..."
The viewers also realized that they might have over-thought things and quickly changed the subject to avoid embarrassment.
Lu Heng ignored these ridiculous viewers.
His attention had been on Zhang Wenhai the entire time.
This guy was deliberately putting on an expectant look, which was utterly ridiculous!
If it werenât for what he saw about this guyâs past through the system, he would have been fooled with everyone else.
Fortunately, today, he was about to uncover the truth!
"Daoist, please tell us!"
The middle-aged woman asked, her expression anxious.
She also knew it was rude to keep pressing.
But after searching for her son for ten years, and now with a lead, how could she remain calm?
"Actually, finding your son is not difficult..."
Lu Heng said slowly, unhurriedly.
"Not difficult?"
Upon hearing this, the middle-aged woman was taken aback.
She and her husband had traveled all over the country for ten years and still hadnât found their son.
How come, in this Daoistâs words, it was not difficult?
"The reason you havenât found your son is that youâve been looking in the wrong places and with the wrong people."
Lu Heng continued with a smile.
"Wrong places?"
"With the wrong people?"
This baffled the already confused middle-aged woman.
Zhang Wenhai beside her also frowned.
His gaze occasionally flitted to Lu Heng, with a look of contemplation on his face.
The viewers in the live room were equally puzzled.
"Daoist, is this some kind of riddle?"
"Dear Daoist, the couple is anxious to find their child, donât be cryptic!"
"What the Daoist said must have a deeper meaning, letâs speculate a bit!"
"Stop speculating, at this rate thereâll be no one alive in the live room."
"Hah, you fools still donât understand the Daoistâs meaning?"
"What does it mean? Want an explanation!"
"Canât say, canât say!"
"Damn, youâre just teasing us!"
The viewers debated for a while and still couldnât grasp Lu Hengâs meaning.
"Please be patient, let me explain slowly..."
Lu Heng remained calm and softly said, "Madam, the reason I said you havenât found the right place is that someone has been deliberately leading you in circles."
"Huh?"
The middle-aged woman was once again stunned by these words.
"Daoist, what do you mean by this?"
"What does it mean someone has been deliberately leading me in circles?"
She was at a loss and still didnât understand.
"Ahem!"
Zhang Wenhai lightly coughed, his face turning a bit pale.
The middle-aged woman, hearing the cough, instinctively glanced at her husband.
Ever since their child was abducted, the couple had traveled everywhere, searching.
Clearly, it was just the two of them. How could someone be leading them in circles?
"Donât hurry, let me continue."
Lu Heng smiled slightly and went on, "The reason why I said you havenât found the right person is that itâs this very person who has been leading you in circles."
Upon hearing this, Zhang Wenhaiâs eyes widened instantly, his expression changing dramatically.
The middle-aged woman, however, frowned.
She shook her head and said, "That canât be right, Daoist!"
"In the past ten years, itâs been just me and my husband looking for the child. No one else was involved!"
She still hadnât realized what was going on.
But the viewers in the live room suddenly caught on.
"No way, right? The person the Daoist is talking about couldnât be..."
"Who is it? Tell me quickly!"
"Whereâs your brain? The answer is obvious."
"Whoa! Iâm a bit confused, this canât be real, right?"
"Why not? Before the Daoist came, would you have known that Huâs virtuous wife was cheating? Would you have known that Little Rabbitâs boyfriend worked at a club?"
"Too terrifying! This world is too terrifying!"
"Wah... I admit Iâm an idiot, someone, please tell me, who is the person the Daoist is talking about?"
"Little fool, let me tell you... when searching for the child, it was Brother and Sister-in-law. So, eliminating Sister-in-law, who could it be?"
"Brother Zhang? How could that be possible?"
"Exactly, if thatâs true, why would Brother Zhang go through so much trouble looking for ten years?"
"I believe the Daoist, since he started the broadcast, he hasnât made a mistake."
The intense discussion among the viewers caused an explosion of comments in the live room.
The middle-aged woman also noticed these comments.
Her lips moved slightly, reading them.
After someone provided an explanation, her eyes widened in shock as she turned her head to look at her husband beside her with a dazed expression...
