25: Chapter 25 The Second Fated One, Happy Old Sun!

The screen returned to a single-person view.

Su Yun picked up his thermos, took a slow sip of water, and moistened his throat.

That last burst of talking had indeed been a bit exhausting for his voice.

Just then, the emotionless mechanical voice in his mind sounded at the right time.

[Ding! Congratulations to the host for successfully exposing a major cyber fraud case and saving a lost youth. You have gained 50 merit points!]

Su Yun's eyebrows twitched slightly.

Fifty points?

Not bad.

Adding that to what he had left, he could exchange it for quite a bit of lifespan.

It seemed that as long as he did good deeds, whether it was catching murderers or scammers, the merit points would be substantial.

In the livestream, the viewers were still heatedly discussing the previous events.

"This is definitely the best anti-fraud promotional video of the year!"

"If anyone mentions online dating to me again, I'll slap that screen recording in their face!"

"Master Su is amazing! He could even calculate the seat number in the internet cafe; he's practically a god!"

"Even though Zhao Xiaobei is pitiful, why do I still want to laugh? Am I beyond help?"

"Person above, you're not alone. I want to laugh too."

Su Yun looked at these comments, cleared his throat, and put on the earnest look of an elder.

"Viewers, did you see that?"

"This is the end result of online dating."

"'Connected by a thread of the internet, cherish this fate'? That's just to fool ghosts."

"If no one likes you in real life, do you think some Bai Fu Mei will be crying and screaming to marry you online? Are you dreaming?"

"Remember, anyone who asks for a transfer before you've even met is a scammer!"

"Regardless of whether they claim someone is dying, their dad is sick, or their mom fainted—if they mention money, block them immediately. You can't go wrong!"

These blunt but logical words immediately drew a wave of applause.

"The Master is so insightful!"

"I'm setting that as my motto right now!"

"Listening to your words has saved me three hundred thousand!"

Su Yun glanced at the time.

He had only been broadcasting for over half an hour; today's task wasn't finished yet.

Who would ever complain about having too much lifespan?

Although those fifty merit points were nice, they weren't enough for him to squander.

"Alright, let's turn the page on Zhao Xiaobei's matter."

"Our livestream is all about efficiency."

"One is carried off, the next follows."

Su Yun put down his cup and placed his finger on the mouse again.

"Same old rules."

"The Lucky Bag is ready. Everyone, try your luck."

"Uh... is that top donor from earlier, Hangcheng Young Master, still here?"

Su Yun suddenly remembered something and asked toward the camera.

That guy had sent so many gifts, only to have Zhao Xiaobei snatch the opportunity.

If he got angry and left, it would be a huge loss.

He was a potential major financier.

As soon as he finished speaking, a golden bullet comment floated across the screen.

Hangcheng Young Master: "I'm here, Master! That show just now was spectacular; I was totally engrossed! Isn't this better than watching a drama?"

Hangcheng Young Master: "Hurry up and send the Lucky Bag! I'll definitely win this time!"

This guy was clearly someone who enjoyed the drama; not only was he not angry, but he was also watching with great interest.

Su Yun smiled.

"Alright, then I'll take the Young Master's word for it."

"Come, let's see which deity our second predestined person will be."

"3, 2, 1, grab it!"

As the red Lucky Bag exploded on the screen again, the atmosphere in the livestream reached a climax once more.

Tens of thousands of hands clicked the screen simultaneously.

Who knew what kind of shocking gossip would be unearthed this time.

...

As the draw began, the number of people in the livestream surged.

Over a hundred thousand!

Looking at the bright red number in the top right corner, Su Yun felt incredibly satisfied.

"Congratulations to... Happy Old Sun!"

Su Yun looked at the prompt box on the screen and read out the winner's name.

"That's a good name; sounds like a blessed person."

"Come, staff, connect the link. Let's see who this Old Sun really is."

As soon as he finished, the screen flickered.

The connection was established.

This time, what appeared on camera was no longer a dim rental room or a room full of figurines.

What met the eye was an extremely luxurious living room.

European-style crystal chandeliers, large leather sofas, and a landscape painting that looked very expensive hanging on the wall behind.

Sitting in the middle of the camera was a middle-aged man who looked to be around fifty.

His hair was combed meticulously, styled with wax, and shiny.

He wore a well-tailored deep blue suit, a snow-white shirt inside, and a neatly tied necktie.

This outfit was out of place for a late-night livestream at home; he looked more like he had just come from a business banquet.

Most noticeable was his left hand, which he intentionally or unintentionally rested on the sofa's armrest.

The golden Rolex on his wrist was blindingly bright under the lights.

"Hello, Master Su!"

Old Sun had a smile plastered on his face, and his voice was loud, carrying the confidence and composure typical of a successful person.

"I'm Old Sun. I've long heard that Master Su's divinations are incredibly accurate, so I came today to join the fun."

Saying this, Old Sun didn't hesitate and tapped the screen a few times.

Full-screen special effects instantly exploded.

Ten "Carnivals"!

This gesture was indeed extravagant.

The bullet comments in the livestream instantly shifted direction.

"Holy crap! A tycoon!"

"This aura, this outfit, and that watch—he's definitely a big boss!"

"If Zhao Xiaobei from before saw this, he'd probably cry himself to sleep in the bathroom; this is a real big shot!"

"Father-in-law, please accept your son-in-law's bow!"

"Get lost, the one above! This is my godfather!"

Su Yun looked at this scene, his eyebrows twitching slightly.

Interesting.

Old Sun's aura was indeed different from the previous ones.

That sense of superiority from being in a high position for a long time couldn't be faked.

"Boss Sun, you're too kind."

Su Yun smiled and cupped his hands. "Since you won the Lucky Bag, it's fate."

"What would Boss Sun like to calculate?"

"Is it your business prospects? Or seeking good fortune and avoiding calamity?"

Old Sun heard this and burst into laughter.

He waved his hand, his face full of wrinkles that radiated pride.

"Master Su, to be honest, I didn't connect today for a fortune reading."

"I have three building material companies and two logistics fleets. Business is booming, and I make a profit every year. As for my wealth, I don't think I need to calculate that."

"As for seeking good fortune and avoiding calamity, I usually do good deeds, donating plenty for bridges and roads. My body is very robust, and I have a great appetite."

"My family is even more harmonious and happy; my wife is virtuous, and my children are successful."

At this point, Old Sun paused, and the smile on his face grew even wider.

"If you'll excuse me for saying so, I feel my current life can be summed up in one word: perfect!"

"Connecting today is purely to support the Master, give some money, and have some fun!"
