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

Shen Jingshu remained calm, but her tone was very serious as she directly exposed the truth: "The matter is exactly as the netizens in the live stream said. Your so-called good brother was determined to scam you from the very beginning."

Xiao An's smile froze instantly. She shook her head in disbelief, her voice tinged with panic: "No way, Master! We've known each other for so many years, how could he harm me? It's just signing a guarantee, what could be the big deal..."

"Once the guarantee is signed, if Xiao Gao is unable to repay the loan and disappears, the bank won't contact him first. All the outstanding debts, penalties, and late fees will be charged to you. You'll end up bearing the full amount of the debt, which is over 100,000 yuan." Shen Jingshu slowly explained the implications. "He clearly knows he can't get a loan with his credit score and knows the heavy cost behind the guarantee, yet he hides all the risks and only uses your years of friendship to blackmail you. He doesn't care about your future at all."

The live stream chat was flooded with comments coming in rapid succession:

[I've said it before, anyone who specifically seeks out students for guarantees is a bad person! College students, lacking social experience, are the easiest targets.]

[A student is burdened with over 100,000 yuan in debt, which has wiped out his parents' hard-earned savings.]

Block them immediately and stay away; whatever you do, don't go to sign anything tomorrow!

Xiao An sat blankly in the chair, feeling cold all over. The thought of suddenly being burdened with a debt of over 100,000 yuan made her panic and helpless.

Xiao An hurriedly asked, "Master Shen, what should I do now?"

"The solution is actually quite simple," Shen Jingshu reassured patiently. "Just make an excuse to avoid the appointment tomorrow. If you really can't let go of this friendship of many years, it's fine to insist on meeting, but remember one bottom line: never hand over your ID card, and don't sign any documents."

Xiao An nodded softly, her eyes filled with disappointment and disbelief: "I've got it. But I just can't understand why he would do something like this to me when we're such good friends?"

"After you graduated from high school, you mostly chatted online and met in person very few times, right?" Shen Jingshu asked.

Seeing Xiao An nod, she slowly revealed Xiao Gao's background: "Back then, he failed his college entrance exam and went out to work. Without a degree, he could only do hard, low-paying manual labor. After seeing so many people's glamorous lives, his mentality completely became unbalanced, and he became addicted to online gambling, accumulating a huge amount of online loan debt. This time, he tricked you into becoming a guarantor for a car loan, not because he wanted to buy a car. Once the car is successfully purchased, he will immediately resell it and use the tens of thousands of yuan to cover his gambling debts."

"So that's how it is... Gambling really does harm people a lot." Xiao An muttered to herself, feeling deeply saddened.

The live stream chat was filled with comments expressing their amazement:

[The initial shock of entering society is too great, and some people want to take the wrong path; shortcuts are always a bottomless abyss.]

It's such a pity that such a good friendship was ruined by gambling.

Xiao An clenched her fists, thought for a moment, and said, "I still plan to go see him tomorrow. It's been a long time since we last met, and I want to ask him in person why he would scheme against his best friend."

His voice was filled with lingering fear as he repeatedly expressed his gratitude: "Thank you so much, Master Shen! If you hadn't exposed the truth, I would have been completely unprepared tomorrow and signed the papers as he asked. The thought of suddenly being burdened with a debt of over ten thousand yuan sends chills down my spine. My parents are just ordinary office workers who scrimped and saved to send me to university. I can't even imagine how devastated they would be if I were to incur such a huge debt before I even graduated."

"No need to thank me. It was destined that you would draw this lucky bag and be connected with me, which was to resolve this calamity in your life." Shen Jingshu smiled faintly.

Xiao An thanked him repeatedly before hanging up the call.

After the discussion in the live stream subsided a bit, Shen Jingshu spoke softly: "Next, please invite the third lucky person tonight to draw a lucky bag to apply for a live chat."

The third person I connected with was also a young man.

The camera pans across a wide-open space, revealing him sitting on a park bench, head bowed, radiating a depressed and sullen aura. In the brief moment the camera panned, several empty beer cans and glass bottles were scattered on the ground, particularly noticeable. The boy's cheeks were flushed, his eyes unfocused; needless to say, he had already drunk quite a bit.

He looked at the camera with a hoarse voice: "Host, everyone online says you're incredibly accurate at fortune telling. I'd like to ask you to help me see if my girlfriend and I are truly meant for each other."

The live stream chat instantly became lively.

[Another young man heartbroken over relationship troubles, drinking alone in the park late at night. It's heartbreaking to see.]

The hardest hurdle is love; listen to the story behind it.

Shen Jingshu replied gently, "Okay, send me a private message with a photo of you and your girlfriend. I'll take a closer look at your faces and give you an answer."

"it is good."

The boy lowered his head, swiped his fingertips across his phone screen for a long time, pulled out a group photo, and sent it to Shen Jingshu via private message.

Shen Jingshu stared intently at the girl's face in the photo, and after a moment, she bluntly said, "Your girlfriend is not your destined partner."

The boy suddenly looked up, his eyes bloodshot and filled with disbelief: "How could this be? I like her so much, I treat her with all my heart, how could she not be my soulmate?"

"Your heart and soul are filled with her, yet now, in the dead of night, you're hiding alone in the park, drowning your sorrows in alcohol. Doesn't that say something?" Shen Jingshu asked softly.

The boy fell silent upon hearing this, then let out a long sigh, his voice filled with exhaustion: "It's a long story."

"Then tell me slowly, start from the beginning."

Let's call this guy A. He met his girlfriend C at a friend's gathering.

C was exceptionally beautiful, with delicate features, fair skin, and a striking, well-proportioned figure. A was instantly smitten when he first saw her at the party. Later, through a mutual friend, he began a fervent pursuit of her.

At first, C's attitude towards him was lukewarm, neither particularly enthusiastic nor deliberately distant. After spending some time getting to know each other, the two naturally became a couple. At that time, A felt like the luckiest person in the world to have such a beautiful girlfriend.

Xiao A is of average appearance and not particularly outstanding, but comes from a wealthy family. Her parents accumulated a considerable fortune through business in their early years and own several properties. In contrast, Xiao C comes from a rural area, dropped out of school early to work, did not receive higher education, and experienced the harsh realities of life at a young age.

During their time together, A felt that C was gentle, considerate, and understanding, which was completely different from the girls around her who talked about designer bags and luxury goods all the time.

Throughout their relationship, C has never asked A to buy her any expensive gifts.
