Chapter 557 - 555: Sister-in-law, Please Let Go

Amidst the banter of the viewers, tonight’s first lucky viewer—"Sister-in-law, please let go"—finally accepted the invitation for a call.

This lucky viewer is male, roughly around thirty-three or thirty-four years old.

As for his physique, he’s quite burly and strong.

At first glance, he’s clearly someone who regularly works out and exercises.

However, his most notable feature is still the layer of dark and thick beard covering his face, like a dense forest covering his entire chin and upper lip.

Of course, if his forehead weren’t so bald, he’d definitely be more charming...

"Hello, Old Taoist!"

"I really didn’t expect to be so lucky tonight, to be picked by you!"

"Sister-in-law, please let go" appeared very excited, his voice trembling slightly with emotion.

"Hello, Young Friend!"

"May I ask how I should address you, Young Friend?"

Lu Heng asked with a smile.

"Old Taoist, my surname is Zhu, my friends call me ’Old Zhu.’"

"But here, it’s more appropriate if you call me ’Zhu.’"

"Sister-in-law, please let go" chuckled in response.

"Alright, Young Friend Zhu!"

Lu Heng nodded slightly before asking, "Young Friend Zhu, what did you plan to ask tonight?"

"Well..."

Upon hearing this, Old Zhu’s face showed a hint of hesitation.

After a moment, he tentatively spoke, "Old Taoist, I haven’t decided what to ask yet."

"Our livestream viewers are all talented, they speak well, and have plenty of ideas."

"I have a friend who is currently facing a troubling problem."

"I want to ask the viewers for their advice..."

Lu Heng was slightly taken aback after hearing this.

Wow!

In all his time livestreaming, this was the first person who didn’t need his help and instead sought assistance from the viewers.

"Of course you can."

After a brief consideration, Lu Heng nodded lightly, indicating his approval.

He also wanted to see what kind of problem Young Friend Zhu had that required the viewers’ quirky ideas.

"Thank you, Old Taoist!"

Seeing him nod in agreement, Old Zhu quickly expressed gratitude.

Upon witnessing this scene, the viewers couldn’t help but reveal a hint of curiosity.

"Old Zhu is definitely a regular in the livestream, knowing that our viewers are all smart and full of ideas!"

"Coming into the livestream feels like coming home, even better than being at home! Everyone in the chat is talented and speaks so well; I love it here!"

"Brother Zhu, are you sure this friend of yours isn’t just you?"

"Always saying it’s my friend, my friend, but in the end, it’s always oneself!"

"Zhu, don’t be afraid! Speak bravely, we won’t mock you!"

"Pfft... Sorry, I couldn’t hold it in..."

"Bro, are you leaking?"

"Pal, do you exercise regularly, causing your sphincter to be weakened?"

"Wow, these young people are something else!"

"Can’t hold your poo, it’s an illness! Recommend seeing a doctor."

"I just can’t hold back my laughter, what nonsense are you talking about here?"

"Don’t deny it! It’s not about holding back from above, clearly it’s holding back from below!"

"Exactly, just saying we’re talking nonsense, I see you’re angry from embarrassment!"

"Suggest buying a plug and block your butt, so it doesn’t leak out!"

"What kind of play is this, sounds quite interesting?"

"No more, our livestream has quite a few freaks!"

"Even as a freak myself, I find you all freaky!"

These quirky viewers kept chatting away, steering the conversation off-topic again.

Lu Heng, however, had long been used to it.

Despite being a regular in the chat, Old Zhu was still amazed by their ability to derail discussions.

"Please don’t misunderstand!"

"It’s really my friend, not me!"

Old Zhu first defended himself, then continued, "Here’s what happened..."

"My friend, his surname is Zhang, let’s call him ’Old Zhang.’"

"Old Zhang and I have been friends since childhood; we’ve known each other as classmates all the way through high school."

"It wasn’t until college that we ended up in different cities."

"In the following years, we both returned to our hometown city."

"Back in high school, Old Zhang liked a girl; let’s call her Xiaoli."

"Although Old Zhang liked her then, he never confessed to Xiaoli, it’s what we usually call an unrequited crush."

"With the end of high school, this crush ended without any result, and they lost contact."

"About half a year ago, Xiaoli suddenly got in touch with Old Zhang, inviting him for a meal or something."

"When he arrived, Old Zhang found Xiaoli had brought a four-year-old little girl with her."

"During their meal and conversation, Old Zhang gradually learned about Xiaoli’s current situation."

"After graduating from college, Xiaoli married a college classmate within a few years and had a child."

"Later, due to some family issues, Xiaoli divorced her husband, temporarily taking care of the child herself."

"Xiaoli’s parents and relatives are ordinary folks, couldn’t offer much help."

"Whereas Old Zhang was doing well locally, so Xiaoli hoped to keep in touch with him and us for mutual support."

"In high school, Old Zhang was already secretly in love with Xiaoli, and even now hasn’t forgotten."

"With Xiaoli’s initiative, Old Zhang immediately fell for her."

"He’s no longer joining us for dinner or playing mahjong..."

At this point, Old Zhu’s throat felt dry.

He quickly turned and grabbed a bottle of mineral water, taking several gulps.

Once his throat felt better, he resumed, "Just the night before, after not having contacted me for ages, Old Zhang suddenly called me."

"In the call, he said he wanted to meet, and we agreed on our usual place, a skewer restaurant."

"When I arrived, I found Old Zhang looking distressed and sighing."

"Curious, I asked him what happened."

"Old Zhang first sighed deeply, then told me a major incident..."

Here, Old Zhu paused once more, evidently building up suspense.

After the viewers’ comments flooded in, he chuckled and continued, "Old Zhang said that after Xiaoli made the first move on him, he couldn’t resist the temptation and ended up with her."

"There were a few times when protection wasn’t used."

"Just the morning before, Xiaoli suddenly told him she was pregnant."

"Old Zhang was completely stunned upon hearing it."

"Thus, he asked me for advice on how to deal with this."

"I’m a single guy with no experience, how on earth would I know what to do?"
