Chapter 335 - 337: Someone Under the Bed
Su Nian made herself very clear, and the viewers in the livestream chat understood instantly.
[Thank goodness she met the Host.]
[Exactly. If she hadn’t met her and had actually killed someone on impulse, that whole family would have been destroyed.]
[She was lucky. It must have been fate.]
The viewers couldn’t stop sighing with emotion.
Su Nian, however, was busy packing up. The livestream from the Daoist Temple was over for the day.
She needed to go home to rest and prepare for her evening stream.
"Alright, everyone, that’s all for the Daoist Temple livestream today. If you’re interested, you can join my stream tonight for a chance to win a lucky bag."
Su Nian ended the livestream.
Soon, the words "The host is offline" appeared on the screen.
Before the viewers could even ask her to stay, Su Nian had already disconnected.
Munching on another peach, Su Nian began her leisurely drive home.
While passing an intersection, she saw a middle-aged man standing on the roof of a tall building.
A crowd had gathered below.
It was the exact same scene as before, just with a different person.
But the crowd’s reaction was just as fervent.
"Hurry up and jump!"
"You’re a coward if you don’t jump!"
"Coward! Wimp! You had the guts to get up there, now let’s see if you have the guts to jump!"
The crowd’s jeers were loud, while firefighters below frantically pulled an air cushion into place.
Su Nian saw a few other firefighters desperately running up the stairs.
But the next second...
THUD!!
A figure came crashing down in an instant.
It all happened too fast, so fast that the crowd below didn’t even have time to react.
Quite a few people were still expressing regret.
"I didn’t even have time to shout ’three, two, one’!"
"Oh man, me neither!"
"Jumping that fast... guess he was in a hurry to be reincarnated. So damn morbid!"
Su Nian narrowed her eyes, watching the falling figure. The face... it looked somewhat similar to the girl from a few days ago.
Just like before, the crowd reacted by frantically surging forward, phones out to take pictures.
They didn’t forget to immediately post on social media, lamenting how unpredictable life is and how everyone should cherish it.
Su Nian pulled her car over to the side of the road. Without getting out, she sat and watched. Seeing such a uniform reaction, she couldn’t help but shake her head before driving away from the scene.
And still, she didn’t notice that above the heads of these people, a plume of dark smoke had begun to spread...
「Time flew by, and soon it was eight o’clock.」
As usual, Su Nian started the lucky draw.
As always, the moment Su Nian went live, she was greeted by a flood of praise from her fans.
[The gorgeous host is live!]
[Host, look at me! I love you! I want to have eighteen of your babies!]
[Could you stop with the embarrassing comments? Leave it to me (blushing)]
Su Nian smiled. "Tonight’s stream is starting now. Anyone in need of a reading can enter the draw for my lucky bag!"
The moment she finished speaking, Su Nian tapped her phone.
A red silk pouch with a large "Fortune" character in the center began to bounce on the screen.
Three seconds later, the winner appeared.
[Congratulations to ’NotChangingNameTill90’ for winning the Host’s lucky bag!]
Except for the ecstatic winner of the lucky bag, all the other viewers began to wail in unison.
[Why, why wasn’t it me again?!]
[Fam, who gets it? I’ve been dreaming about winning the lucky bag, and it’s still not me!]
[I heard that everyone who wins the lucky bag is an unlucky soul. Today, I want to be an unlucky soul. Please, just let it be me for once!]
[Not me again! I was so furious that I... got furious again.]
Su Nian ignored the howls in the chat and contacted the user named NotChangingNameTill90.
Once they were connected, she initiated the video call.
The user, who was watching on her computer, accepted the call, and a young woman’s face appeared on the screen.
A young woman in her early twenties was sitting on her bed, looking at Su Nian with a thrilled expression.
She was wearing pale yellow ducky pajamas with her hair down. Her eyes were shining, and she looked absolutely blissful.
Judging by the background, she was in her bedroom.
The room was cozy and immaculately clean.
The moment she saw Su Nian, NotChangingNameTill90 couldn’t help but let out a huge grin and cackle with laughter.
"My luck is so good today! I won fifty on a lottery ticket, and I won the lucky bag draw too! I just casually entered, I didn’t think I’d actually win!!"
The girl flashed a bright, toothy smile at the screen, looking cheerful and outgoing.
[I’m seriously dying of jealousy!]
[She calls that ’casually entering’? Then what about me? I was sitting on my router to get a better signal and still didn’t win!]
[I’m not listening, I’m not listening! Anyway, everyone who wins the lucky bag is an unlucky soul!!]
The girl was still gloating, her bright white smile gleaming on the screen.
"My luck is really so good today! Aigh, I just tapped it randomly and won!"
The more the girl gloated, the more bitter the chat became. Many viewers started spamming what they considered to be the most vicious curses.
[Unlucky soul! Unlucky soul!]
[Welcome today’s first unlucky soul!]
[So what if we didn’t win? The real unlucky soul knows who she is!]
NotChangingNameTill90: ...
She snorted coldly.
"You’re all just jealous!"
Su Nian looked at the girl on the screen and said, "If you want a divination, please pay the divination fee first. One ’Carnival’."
"Okay!" NotChangingNameTill90 stopped bickering with the viewers and sent the gift first.
After closing the gift interface, her expression turned blissful.
"Host, I haven’t felt unlucky at all recently. Don’t tell me I’ve run into a ghost?"
As the girl spoke, she turned up the volume on her phone.
Adjusting the Bluetooth earbud in her ear, she prepared to listen carefully to find out what kind of bad thing was supposedly going to happen to her.
But her face also showed eager anticipation.
Thanks to Su Nian’s influence, she wasn’t really afraid of ghosts. In fact, she was kind of hoping to see one.
To her, ghosts were things that could be easily subdued by Su Nian.
Plus, they’d get beaten into submission by the Host, which she found both hilarious and pathetic.
Besides, there’s a saying: the ghost you fear might be the very person someone else longs to see, someone they’d give anything to meet just one more time.
For these two reasons, the girl’s curiosity about the supernatural had only grown.
Su Nian’s gaze sharpened. Fixing her eyes on the girl, she saw that she was indeed surrounded by wisps of black energy. This energy was so dense it was on the verge of completely shrouding her.
’Disaster is imminent. She’s going to die!’
Seeing Su Nian remain silent for a long time, the girl couldn’t help but ask, "Host, what’s wrong?"
Su Nian’s brow furrowed deeply as her eyes scanned the girl’s room.
From her angle, Su Nian couldn’t see much—just a half-open closet and part of a window.
But with just these details, Su Nian had already confirmed her suspicions.
Looking at the darkness clouding the girl’s brow and her confused expression, Su Nian slowly spoke.
Her voice was cool and melodious, yet it made the girl freeze in an instant.
"There’s someone under your bed!"
