Stepdaughter of a wealthy family? The little darling of a Beijing tycoon

After carefully examining the two people's faces, Shen Jingshu looked up at the cheerful girl on the other side of the camera.

The girl, clutching her phone anxiously, pressed on with eager eyes, "Host, have you figured out the result yet?"

"You guessed right, your best friend really did fall for a scam."

Upon receiving a positive reply, the cheerful girl immediately became excited: "I knew it! There's no such thing as a coincidence! I had subtly reminded my best friend before, but she got angry instead. We've been friends for ten years, and I really couldn't bear to see her being deceived."

Unexpectedly, Shen Jingshu changed the subject, her tone still calm: "But you don't need to worry too much. Your best friend is much more insightful than she seems. She's very clear-headed and has never intended to truly fall for this relationship."

The live stream chat immediately became interested, with everyone curious about what the girl was thinking in this seemingly unequal relationship.

Upon hearing Shen Jingshu's interpretation, Kaixinguo was stunned, her eyes wide with astonishment.

"Huh? What do you mean by that, host?"

"I took a close look at your best friend's face. She has always been quick-witted and was an outstanding student in the eyes of others when she was young. She excelled in her studies and has also been very successful in her career after graduation."

Shen Jingshu slowly explained, "She works for a listed company with a generous annual salary. It was precisely because of this excellent condition that she was targeted by that person who set up a scam to butcher her. But your best friend knew exactly what was going on and had no intention of falling into the trap. Instead, she went along with it with a playful attitude."

Pistachio was increasingly puzzled: "Then why has she never mentioned these things to me?"

"Let her tell you the answer herself." Shen Jingshu smiled and said, "Your best friend is watching this live stream right now."

"Really?"

Shen Jingshu invited the other party to connect via voice chat, and a moment later, a new connection request popped up. After connecting, the live stream screen split into three, and in the extra window was Manman, the slightly chubby girl wearing black-rimmed glasses.

Netizens scrutinized the two, with comments flooding the screen:

"Now I completely understand Guoguo's concerns. Just looking at their appearances, the two of them are indeed not a good match at all."

"They would be quite ordinary in a crowd, which explains why everyone immediately felt they had been scammed."

Manman looked helplessly at the pistachio on camera, her tone teasing: "Guoguo, I know you really care about me. I was planning to relax a bit longer, but I didn't expect you to be so anxious as to go to a fortune-telling livestream to check my relationship status."

She sighed softly, with a hint of regret: "If I had known you would be so anxious, I shouldn't have had this idea of ​​having fun in the first place. Now my mundane life has lost another source of joy."

Pistachio was still completely confused: "Manman, what's going on?"

"It's simple," Manman smiled frankly. "The moment A Yuan approached me, I knew it was a scam. I know my own limitations—I'm average-looking and from an ordinary family. Why would a handsome, wealthy second-generation heir fall for me for no reason?"

"But he's handsome and generous to me, so I went along with it and didn't lose anything. I just wanted to experience being a handsome, rich second-generation boyfriend, which is a once-in-a-lifetime experience for me."

These frank remarks caused the live stream chat to erupt in laughter.

"This young lady is so clear-headed! Her perspective is off the charts!"

"I thought the prey had fallen into the trap, but it turned out the hunter had turned the tables on the scammer, hahaha!"

"Now I'm really curious. What does she plan to do if the scammers want to collect their money back?"

Manman smiled and comforted Kaixinguo, speaking softly, "Don't worry, I know what's important and I won't fall for a scam. But after what happened tonight, I'm not in the mood to keep playing along. I'll break up with him later. I'll tell you the rest of the private matters after we go offline."

"Thanks for reminding me."

"It's alright."

As soon as they finished speaking, the two sisters hung up the call together.

The viewers in the live stream were immediately in suspense, and the chat was filled with groans of despair.

"No way! It's so frustrating to have your gossip abruptly cut off halfway through!"

"Please, streamer, tell us what happened next!"

Seeing this, Shen Jingshu slowly explained the whole story.

"The truth is not complicated. Manman is very capable and earns a very good annual salary, which is why she fell into the eyes of the scammers. That A Yuan belongs to a fraud gang. They use their good looks to find single women from wealthy families, pretend to be in love and build up their relationship. When the time is right, they make up stories about their family falling on hard times and having trouble with cash flow to trick the other party into lending them money. After getting the money, they immediately disappear and look for their next prey."

"Ah Yuan had long since figured out Manman's background. In his eyes, Manman was well-off but had an ordinary appearance. She would definitely be tempted by a high-quality suitor and would be easy to manipulate. But he never expected that Manman would be so clear-headed from beginning to end."

"If it weren't for this live stream tonight, this fake relationship wouldn't have lasted long. The two have been together for over a month, and A Yuan has already lost patience. He'll soon start asking for money. By then, Manman was already planning to decisively cut off all contact. In the end, it's this liar who will realize that he's been played all along. The hunter who should have been in control has ended up being someone else's plaything."

Everyone suddenly realized what had happened, while the comments section was still replaying this dramatic reversal.

Shen Jingshu snapped out of her thoughts and her clear, cool voice echoed through the live stream: "Today's two divinations are over, and there's one last one left. Those who won the lucky bag can now start a live chat."

As soon as he finished speaking, connection requests flooded the backend, with a user named "Never Fail" initiating the live stream first.

The connection was established, and a clean-cut male college student with youthful energy appeared on the screen.

The live chat immediately erupted in laughter: "Hahaha, this ID is so obviously deliberate, definitely proof that they're a current student!"

This netizen's name is Xiaoyu. He is 20 years old and a sophomore in college.

He looked distressed at the camera, his voice filled with anxiety: "Answerer, please help me. I haven't been able to eat or sleep properly these past few nights. I keep dreaming that my deceased grandmother is chasing me and beating me."

"It's been like this for several days in a row. I wake up feeling sore and tired all over. And in my dream, Grandma doesn't say a word, she just stares at me intently."

"I'm really at my wit's end with this, and I'd like to ask you to take a look. What message is Grandma trying to convey by persistently appearing in my dreams to me?"
