Looking at the layers of comments flying across the phone screen, Sunâs smile became increasingly awkward.
Even though he had mentally prepared himself for everyoneâs teasing beforehand.
But at this moment, he was still so embarrassed by everyoneâs criticisms that he wanted to crawl into a hole.
"Everyoneâs right, itâs all because my hormones got the better of me!"
"If I had stayed calm at the time and thought it through more, maybe I wouldnât have been fooled."
"But unfortunately, thereâs no if! So, Daoist, please help me with a reading."
"If sheâs a scammer, Iâll report it to the police immediately!"
Sun first made a self-reflection and then pleaded again.
Lu Heng listened and smiled faintly, saying, "If you ask for my opinion, young friend, it would be wise to report to the police sooner rather than later."
"Well... well..."
After hesitating for a moment, Sun smiled shyly and said, "Daoist, Iâm just saying if, just if..."
"If sheâs really in some difficulty, itâs not that I canât help."
"Itâs just that I donât know her well enough to confirm if her motherâs surgery is real."
"If itâs all true, then Iâm willing to do my part."
"But if itâs fake, then it means she was deliberately deceiving me earlier, and I wonât hold back then."
Having said this much, how could Lu Heng not understand Sunâs intention?
He said unhurriedly, "Young friend has developed real feelings for this female netizen. Although you have doubts, you still like her very much."
"But you canât determine the truth of her motherâs surgery and are afraid of being scammed."
"So, you want me to help you with a reading to see what the future holds for you and this female netizen?"
"If you two truly end up together in the future, then it proves everything she said is true."
"But if you donât, youâll also know the reason behind your separation."
"Perhaps sheâs just a scammer, maybe due to emotional incompatibility, or some other reason..."
After listening, Sun nodded repeatedly, saying, "Exactly!"
"Daoist, thatâs exactly what I mean!"
He really fell for that female netizen.
Even though he lost money, he still held onto a flicker of hope in his heart.
"Alright then, please wait for a moment, young friend."
"Allow me to help you read the future!"
After Lu Heng finished speaking, he called upon his Celestial Destiny System.
"System, query this personâs future!"
[System Notification: Querying future information will require the expenditure of three days of the hostâs lifespan. Continue?]
"Yes!"
As he confirmed, everything about Sunâs future flashed by like scenes in a movie.
After reviewing it, Lu Heng smacked his lips.
This outcome couldnât be said to be completely unexpected, but it was pretty close to what he anticipated.
Whether in the previous life or this one, the authenticity of online romances leaves much to be desired.
Perhaps, some online couples do successfully meet in real life.
But they are the minority.
The remaining majority of those in online romances are still likely to be deceived.
Especially when money is involved, ninety-nine percent of the time itâs a scam.
Previously, Little Hou got scammed by someone posing as his "aunt" and "uncle."
And now Sun is also falling victim to an online romance scam.
However, the identity of this scammer is particularly interesting!
Even in his wildest dreams, Sun wouldnât suspect that this scammer is not only someone he knows but also quite closely connected.
With this thought, a peculiar glint flashed in Lu Hengâs eyes.
Meanwhile, the viewers again keenly noticed that their lovely Daoist hadnât spoken immediately.
"Wow! The Daoist hesitated, this means the situation isnât simple!"
"As usual, whenever the Daoist doesnât speak right away, it means something big is up!"
"Are you kidding? Iâm here for the drama, the bigger, the better!"
"Attention viewers, the beer, duck necks, duck wings, and duck collarbones are ready!"
"My mouth is already half-open, just waiting for the Daoist to reveal the secret so I can burst out laughing!"
"Beer, drinks, mineral water, peanuts, sunflower seeds, sausages, friends in the front, please mind your feet!"
"It wonât be another huge scam like the one with my mother-in-law, right?"
"Donât talk nonsense! That was clearly my wife!"
"We canât rule out such a possibility! Sniff brother, prepare in advance!"
"Beep beep beep... Hello everyone, Iâm the âreminder assistantâ in the live room! I hope everyone who sees this message will immediately start doing pelvic floor exercises! Pelvic exercises can help prevent hemorrhoids and other perianal diseases!"
Glancing at the screenâs comments, Sun swallowed secretly.
At this point, he was so nervous that his palms started to sweat.
To be honest, he really didnât want to see his online girlfriend exposed as a scammer.
But reason told him that the possibility was as high as ninety percent!
About two to three minutes later, Lu Heng finally asked slowly, "Young Friend Sun, if I havenât read it wrong, it seems the contact information of this female netizen was given to you by a classmate, right?"
"Yes, Daoist!"
Sun was slightly taken aback by the question, then nodded in response.
Then he continued, "After seeing that I was single for a while, a classmate pulled me into a dating chat group."
"He said he found his current girlfriend in this dating group."
"At first, I didnât believe it at all and just went in with a casual mindset."
"But later on, I found that the netizens in this chat group were pretty interesting."
"After about a week, I started playing games with these online friends."
"It was at that time when I met the female netizen I like."
"As we played games and chatted more and more, we gradually entered into an online romance..."
Hearing this, Lu Heng nodded slightly.
Then he smiled and asked, "Young Friend Sun, youâve been chatting for three months, didnât you think of meeting her in real life?"
"Of course, I did!"
Sun said very frankly, "I like her, of course, I want her to stay by my side."
"But she said her home and workplace are too far from my school and she canât come to see me for the time being."
"I did think of asking her to quit her job and come over, but then I thought, as a student who hasnât even graduated, I canât even support myself, so how can I ask her to give up her job to meet me?"
Lu Heng asked again, "Then can you be sure she is a real person and not a fake identity created by a scammer?"
"Of course, I can!"
Sun smiled and said, "Even though we havenât met in real life yet."
"But sheâs sent me many selfie photos and videos, as well as voice messages."
"I even follow her on her Douyin account!"
