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

Chapter 366 Something That Surprised Even Shen Jingshu

"Watching the show?" Chu Xia sneered, her gaze sweeping over the two people beside her. "I'm asking you, are they really your biological parents?"

Zhang Wei's expression froze: "What do you mean by that?"

"What do you mean?" Chu Xia asked clearly, mercilessly exposing the lie, "They aren't your parents at all, they're your aunt and uncle!"

When his lie was exposed in public, Zhang Wei's composure shattered completely, all color drained from his face, and his mind raced as he frantically tried to come up with a way to cover it up.

The uncle sighed heavily and said helplessly, "I told you long ago that it was wrong to keep it from a girl, but you insisted on doing it yourselves. Now that the truth is out, everyone is embarrassed."

The aunt glared at the uncle, signaling him to shut up, and quickly stepped forward to try and smooth things over, putting on a troubled look: "Xiaxia, don't blame Xiaowei. He didn't mean to deceive you; he just likes you too much. The difference in our family backgrounds is huge, and he feels inferior, afraid that you would look down on his origins. That's why he asked me and his uncle to come and take his place. We originally planned to tell you the truth after we got to know each other better."

"After that?" Chu Xia's eyes were filled with disappointment, her laughter tinged with coldness. "If I hadn't found out everything beforehand today, how long did you plan to keep it a secret? Until we got our marriage certificate? Or until I was pregnant, and the deed was done, leaving me no choice but to swallow this bitter pill?"

"Xiaxia, let me explain. It was my fault. I shouldn't have hidden it." Zhang Wei hurriedly stepped forward, his voice humble. "I was just too insecure. You come from a wealthy family and are so outstanding. I always felt like I wasn't good enough for you. I was just afraid of losing you..."

"None of these are excuses." Chu Xia interrupted him, the light in her eyes dimming little by little. "I was once overjoyed, thinking that you would be my precious first love."

Looking back now, I realize I was a complete idiot from beginning to end. Zhang Wei, we're breaking up. I don't want to have anything to do with you again.

As soon as she finished speaking, Chu Xia grabbed her bag from the back of the chair, turned around and walked straight out of the private room, leaving Zhang Wei, his aunt and uncle frozen in place, staring at each other in an extremely awkward situation.

The live stream chat was instantly flooded with comments, filled with words of comfort and support.

"Don't be sad, young lady. A man who schemes against people like that doesn't deserve you!"

"It's heartbreaking that my first love met someone so scheming. Anyone would be utterly disappointed in that situation."

In early summer, she walked to a quiet roadside outside the restaurant, calmed herself down, and sincerely thanked the camera: "Thank you, Master Shen. If you hadn't revealed the truth today, I can't imagine how long I would have been deceived. If I had only found out after the wedding, I would have been in a dilemma. Fortunately, I managed to stop the damage in time, and it's not too late."

"It's alright, he's just a bad romance for you. But be careful, he might try to harass you again in the future."

Chu Xia's eyes were clear and bright, and her tone was crisp and decisive: "Don't worry, he was in the wrong first. If he dares to harass me again, I will never tolerate it. I will expose the whole thing to his company and let everyone see his true colors."

"This young lady has an amazing aura! This is the kind of tough stance you need to take against a man from a poor background who's only trying to climb the social ladder through marriage!"

"Thank you again for your advice, Master. I'll hang up now. I need to go home and explain the breakup to my parents."

After saying that, Chu Xia decisively ended the video call.

The discussion among netizens in the live stream continued.

"This really shocked my worldview. Hiring someone to impersonate your parents to commit marriage fraud. I used to think that only movies and TV dramas had this kind of plot."

"Art imitates life. The dramatic things in real life are far more shocking than those in TV dramas. It's just that we were unaware of them in the past due to limited information."

"After seeing so many upsetting things, I sometimes can't help but wonder if we all live in the same world."

Shen Jingshu spoke calmly, suppressing the chaotic comments: "The first divination of fate is finished. Now, the second lucky bag for today is being released. Friends who need answers can participate in the draw."

"Ready? With over twenty years of single-life experience, I must use my lightning-fast reflexes to secure a spot on the live stream today!"

The live chat was buzzing with excitement as the second lucky bag was distributed on time. A moment later, the second lucky winner of the night was revealed.

The second winner's ID is Rose, and their profile picture is a selfie of a pretty girl.

"Is Rose there? I can request to connect."

As soon as she finished speaking, the live stream screen split in two, and Qiangwei's face immediately appeared on the other end. She couldn't hide her excitement, and her voice trembled slightly: "Master Shen! I'm so excited! I never expected to win the lucky bag! I was just watching the live stream with my best friend, complaining with everyone about the 'phoenix man' that Miss Chuxia encountered, and now my luck has turned around."

As she spoke, her emotions became conflicted again, and she gave a bitter smile: "I can't say whether I'm lucky or unlucky. I'm especially happy to have connected with you, you've always been my idol, but I'm also a little scared. Everyone knows that people who can grab your lucky bag have some bad things going on, so I can't help but overthink things."

On the other side of the camera, her best friend Xiaoqiu came over and jokingly comforted her, "Don't scare yourself. You finally won, so let the master take a look at you. Why don't you calculate your boyfriend's fortune?"

Upon hearing this, Qiangwei hesitated even more. She and her boyfriend had been dating for three years, and their relationship had always been stable. They had originally looked forward to getting married together in the future, and she was really afraid of hearing the unbearable truth from Shen Jingshu.

Xiao Qiu continued to persuade him, "Master Shen's judgment is always accurate and insightful. You were planning to get engaged to Qi Lei anyway, so it's a good opportunity to have the master take a look and see if he is your true love. For us girls, one wrong step can ruin our lives, so it's always better to be cautious."

The live stream chat instantly erupted with comments:

"That's right! It's better to calculate it for peace of mind!"

"The girl before me fell into a big pit; hopefully, she'll meet the right person!"

"Quickly, let the master take a look. What if it's a match made in heaven, a lifelong bond?"

Unable to resist her best friend's persuasion and the echoes of countless netizens, Qiangwei took a deep breath and solemnly said, "Then I'll trouble Master Shen to help me see if my boyfriend and I are destined to be together. I've already sent you his photo via private message."

"it is good."

Shen Jingshu opened her private messages and pulled up the photo Qiangwei had sent. The man in the photo was tall and muscular, exuding a strong masculine aura honed through years of fitness training. But when she focused her gaze on his face and used her inner eye to scrutinize him, a hint of surprise flashed across her eyes, her expression complex and difficult to describe.

She secretly wondered if she was just naturally prone to attracting strange occurrences. Every netizen who won a lucky bag and came to have their fortune told seemed to have some kind of messy and absurd entanglement. But the secret Rose's boyfriend was hiding was so outrageous that even Shen Jingshu, who was used to all sorts of people and things, couldn't help but click her tongue in astonishment.
