Master, Your Wife Has Become a Super Star Through Fortune-Telling-Chapter 152 - 153: The Other Man

Su Nian’s tone was strange, and she gave the boy a complicated look.

"You want to be the other man?"

The words had barely left her lips when the handsome, clean-cut boy across from her twisted his mouth into an awkward, bitter smile. "Mhm, that’s right. I love her too much."

The boy looked slightly awkward and flustered, but the live comments were already exploding.

[Huh? Huh? HUH? He wants to be the other man?]

[I can’t believe it. Are even sweet young guys like him really willing to stoop so low these days?]

[He’s so clean-cut and good-looking, and he seems so innocent and inexperienced. Why would he ever want to be the other man?]

[See, guys can be love-struck fools too!]

In the public eye, "the other woman" was usually a girl—either the pure and innocent "little white flower" type who cried at the drop of a hat, or the heavily made-up, seductive vixen.

This boy, however, had a pure disposition and handsome features. Anyone who saw him would assume he was just an innocent male college student.

Yet, who would have thought Su Nian would expose him in a single sentence.

She really was a true master.

"You and this girl were childhood sweethearts, but you always held back and never said anything. After you both got into the same university, she fell for another guy, and you can’t accept that, can you?"

A flash of pain crossed the boy’s eyes. His tone was still a bit embarrassed, but anger began to bubble up. "Yes. We grew up together, so why on earth won’t she be with me?!"

"To be honest, I’ve never had a shortage of girls chasing me, but I was always waiting for her. I know she has feelings for me too; she’s just always been too shy to say it. Whatever she has now is just a fleeting sense of novelty."

["Why on earth?" It just sounds like a one-sided crush!]

[This is a tough one to call. I’m not in his shoes, so I can’t judge. I guess I just wish him success.]

[What a moron!]

He had naturally fallen for the girl he’d grown up with since childhood.

Su Nian gave a faint smile. She had no desire to comment further on his personal feelings.

However, she did have her professional ethics. She reminded him directly, "Your childhood sweetheart is not your fated one. It’s best you stay far away from her."

Deep down, the boy knew Su Nian was a master whose predictions were scarily accurate. Still, hearing her say that he and the girl he loved weren’t destined for each other made him uncomfortable. Rationally, he was angry, but he found he couldn’t argue with her.

The boy scratched his head, his expression worsening. Facing this impossibly beautiful master, he persisted, asking again, "Is there any way for me to be with her? I really, really love her!"

The live comments had already erupted with insults, all scolding the boy for being shameless and pestering the girl.

[I’m speechless. The Heavenly Venerate already said it, so can’t you just stay away from her?!]

[She’s just your childhood friend, it’s not like she’s your girlfriend!]

[Seriously, can you stop being such a simp?!] 𝒻𝘳ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝒷𝘯ℴ𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝑐ℴ𝑚

But Su Nian simply offered a pleasant smile.

"Have you not noticed that this girl has been using you as a simp and a backup plan all along?"

Huh?

The boy’s face froze. He wanted to argue that his childhood friend wasn’t that kind of person, but the words caught in his throat.

"Hasn’t she just been stringing you along? Enjoying all the nice things you do for her, but never actually dating you? And you, you’re such a love-struck fool that you came here this morning and waited in line for hours just to find out if you two have a future?"

The tables turned in an instant.

The boy was a bit stunned. He ran a hand through his hair in frustration, wanting to argue, but deep down, an answer began to take root.

’All these years... it does seem like she’s just been stringing me along.’

Su Nian looked up at him, a trace of disgust in her eyes. "You’ve really perfected the art of being a love-struck fool, haven’t you? She’s being so obvious, and you still can’t see it?"

"If she really liked you, why wouldn’t she date you? Why date some punk instead? I really don’t get it."

Hearing this, the boy clenched his jaw, feeling a little crushed inside.

Over the years, she had indeed dated a lot of people, which always left him feeling exhausted. But she would always say things like she still had a place for him in her heart... though at other times, she’d say she only saw him as a brother.

"Maybe it’s because she’s still too young. She hasn’t figured out her own feelings yet."

The boy’s gaze drifted as he lowered his downcast eyes, but he still couldn’t stop himself from trying to defend her.

Su Nian really couldn’t stand such a love-struck fool. The facts were right in front of him, yet he was still making excuses. She was speechless.

"Did you leave your brain at home, or do you just not have one? I’ll be blunt. She’s all but playing you for a fool."

"I’ll tell you straight up: you’re going to break your leg today, and it’s going to be because of her."

The boy: ???

He looked as if he’d been struck by lightning, his face full of disbelief. His body went rigid as he said incredulously, "How is that possible? She’s not that kind of person!"

"Idiot! She might not be that type, but her punk boyfriend is! You’re both love-struck fools—one of you likes a two-faced little fool, the other likes a punk."

[Watching this from the beginning, I have to say, the only other person I’ve seen this stubborn was back in the very first stream.]

[How can anyone still not believe what the host says? It’s so weird.]

[That girl from the first stream was a love-struck fool too, and she didn’t believe it, right? But then it turned out her precious boyfriend was actually a murderer.]
