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

Chapter 154 The Boy Who Couldn't Take the College Entrance Examination

Shen Jingshu's gaze was calm as she slowly revealed the key point: "Actually, you've had a vague suspicion in your heart for a long time, but you've never been willing to face it openly. Your son rarely interacts with women, and most of his close friends are male."

Upon hearing this, Li Shufen's expression froze, and the expectation on her face slowly faded.

She has a modern mindset, enjoys watching short videos and browsing various information, and is quite knowledgeable about the current situation of young people. For a long time, seeing her son over thirty years old yet never talking about love and never interacting with women, these unusual details had already made her suspicious.

She had a vague feeling that her son might not be interested in a woman. The thought that he was her only son, and that if this were true, her wish to have a grandchild would likely be dashed, filled her with a deep sense of unease and disappointment.

After much deliberation, Li Shufen's mindset gradually became more open-minded and optimistic. She comforted herself, thinking that children and grandchildren have their own blessings, and that her son's happiness and well-being were more important than carrying on the family line.

If her son genuinely prefers the same sex, she is willing to accept it. If that doesn't work, she can adopt a child later and still have a fulfilling life.

Privately, she had tried to subtly probe her son's feelings, but every time the topic of relationships came up, her son would remain silent, deliberately avoiding the subject and refusing to reveal any truth.

Li Shufen sighed, her brows furrowed with helplessness: "Master, to be honest, I've been pondering these thoughts for a long time. On one hand, I'm unwilling to give up, but on the other hand, I don't want to pressure the child, so this matter has remained unresolved."

Viewers in the live stream saw the aunt's conflicted state of mind and sent messages of comfort and advice. Many people were moved by the parents' concern and understanding, while others felt that matters of the heart cannot be forced.

After hearing these words, the pent-up frustration in Li Shufen's heart slowly dissipated.

Her eyes showed relief, and her tone calmed down: "Thanks to the master's insight today, I have finally reached a conclusion. In the future, I will find a suitable time to calmly talk to my son."

"If this is truly his own choice, as long as he is happy and content, my wife and I will not interfere. Ultimately, everyone lives for themselves. Even if he doesn't want to get married and have children, we accept it gracefully. We should also plan for our own future and enjoy the rest of our days."

As she spoke, she turned her head to look at her husband beside her, the anxiety that usually lingered in her eyes gone.

Her husband gently patted the back of her hand, a warm smile on his face: "Haven't you always been looking forward to traveling? Once I officially retire, I'll accompany you to travel all over the world and relax."

The couple looked at each other, all their past worries vanished, and they looked relaxed and content.

"Master, then let's not waste any more time and disconnect the connection."

"May everything go smoothly for you, and may your family be safe and sound," Shen Jingshu replied softly.

As soon as the words were spoken, the video call ended. Many viewers in the live stream were moved by the couple's open-minded attitude and sent comments expressing their heartfelt gratitude for their compassionate family bond.

Next, we'd like to invite our third lucky netizen to connect.

The video call connected, and a young man appeared on the screen. Overjoyed that it was finally his turn, the young man immediately gifted a sports car as a reward.

"Hello host, I've always been a loyal fan of yours, and I've never missed a single one of your live streams." The boy said eagerly, "I'm currently a senior in high school and will soon be taking the college entrance exam. I specifically wanted to ask you to calculate whether I can successfully get into my dream university."

"Let me take a look."

Shen Jingshu looked up at the screen, carefully examining the boy's face to deduce his fortune. After a moment, her brows furrowed slowly, and her expression became more serious.

The boy took in the whole scene, his heart clenching instantly. He asked in a panic, "Master, what's wrong with your expression? Could it be that I'll perform poorly on the exam and won't be able to get into my target university?"

"You really can't get into your dream university."

These words struck the boy like a thunderbolt. His face was filled with astonishment, his voice brimming with bewilderment: "How could this happen? My mock exam scores have always been very consistent, and I've always been very confident. This shouldn't have happened."

"It's not that you failed the exam, it's that you never even had the chance to step into the college entrance exam hall."

The boy shuddered, his pupils contracted sharply, and his voice trembled: "What do you mean? Am I going to meet with an accident?"

"That's right. If you don't win the lucky bag today and don't come to me for a reading, you will be murdered in five days."

Upon hearing the chilling words, the boy's face turned deathly pale, and he began to tremble uncontrollably.

"Impossible! I'm just an ordinary student, I'm always well-behaved, and I've never made enemies with anyone. Why would anyone want to harm me? Master, please don't scare me!"

The live stream chat exploded with comments, filled with shock and worry.

"This child is still young, not even an adult yet, it's such a pity."

"Judging from his demeanor, his academic performance must be quite good; he should have had a bright future."

"The streamer really needs to think of a way to save him!"

The boy, flustered, clenched his fists and urgently asked, "Master, please tell me, who will attack me tomorrow?"

"Your name is Li Yang, and you are seventeen years old. Your parents divorced many years ago, and you have been living with your mother ever since. Am I right?"

The boy was startled by this, and nodded instinctively: "That's right, that's exactly it. Could it be that my misfortune is related to my mother?"

"To be precise, your mother was also one of the murderers who caused your death."

Upon hearing these words, Li Yang felt as if he had been struck by lightning, and the color drained from his face instantly.

"Impossible! I absolutely refuse to believe it!" He shook his head repeatedly, his tone full of resistance. "My mother and I have depended on each other for so many years. Although our relationship wasn't particularly close, and she wasn't always reliable, she is still my biological mother. How could she harm me?"

The viewers in the live stream were in an uproar, filled with disbelief.

"What mother in the world would harm her own son?"

"Most mothers will do everything in their power to protect their children after a divorce. How could they possibly be so cruel to their own flesh and blood, whom they carried for ten months and gave birth to?"

"I think there might be a calculation error this time; it really doesn't make sense."

Li Yang was also filled with conflicting emotions, but looking at Shen Jingshu's calm and composed expression, he couldn't help but feel a sense of panic.
