The livestream was only a short period, but the mood was like a roller coaster—from great joy to great sadness, and from great sadness to great joy. It’s as if a whole lifetime has passed.
After recovering, these new-found family increasingly understood the importance of one another, and now it could definitely be said that love was more important than gold.
Mengmeng wiped away her tears with a tissue. She had cried for a long time, and her eyes were now swollen like walnut kernels, but there was an unmistakable light in them. “Thank you, host, you are the benefactor of our family!”
The other family members also came together to thank An Rugu for her kindness.
A faint smile appeared on An Rugu’s face, and it’s as if the ice and snow have melted and a spring breeze was blowing across her face, “It’s okay. I wish you a happy wedding in advance.”
“Thank you, host!”
An Rugu chatted with the predestined person and her family a while more, and then hung up the call.
……
The audience in the livestream channel, on the other hand, were still deeply immersed in Mengmeng’s episode.
[Host: In short, I made two families crazy about me.]
[Destined person: I need you to heal me on this day.]
[For Mengmeng, her future father-in-law has become her uncle, and her future husband has become her cousin. Although she is not blood related to her future husband, it will still probably take everyone some time to get over it.]
[May all sincere lovers in the world get married eventually.]
[I don’t know if their parents have objections. I hope that after everything, they will eventually get married.]
When An Rugu saw these comments, she thought of the perfect marriage fate she had divined between the two, lowered her eyes, and said with a clear temperament, “They are destined to be with each other, and after this incident, they will definitely achieve a successful marriage.”
The parents of both parties were not from the same household. So there were neither household registration nor blood relationship problems between the two of them. This relationship has no possible negative ending—at least, that’s what An Rugu calculated.
[For the first time, the streamer did not try to break up the marriage, and they will be together for a long time. I feel like something is missing.]
[I agree, this is not in line with the host’s personality.]
[Hahaha, this is true!!]
When An Rugu saw these comments, she realized for the first time that she had somehow acquired the reputation of breaking up marriages!
She was a little dumbfounded and explained herself, “It’s not that I want to break up marriages, but that most of the people who were fated to encounter me in the past livestreams had marriage problems. It wasn’t me who turned their marriage prospects upside down.”
[Ah, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes.]
[Don’t listen, don’t listen, I’ll bet, the next person predestined will have a little green on his head.]
[If you want to have a good divination, you must first have a little green on your head.]

The audience kept making jokes, but An Rugu simply ignored them and moved to contact the second predestined person.
When she saw the other party’s ID, she paused, thought about it, and finally pushed through with contacting the other party. It seemed like the other party was holding their cell phone, and without any hesitation, they chose video connection.
As soon as the call came through, the screen split into two halves, and a middle-aged man came into view on the left half. This man was wearing a long robe and had a short beard, but he was far from looking like an Immortal. There was a sparkle in his eyebrows, and he didn’t look too arrogant.
After the audience saw his ID: <Jianghu Divine Calculator>, the livestream channel immediately became lively.
[Boy, you’re here to play around, right? ]
[The streamer is so popular right now. It’s the first time I even knew about a fortune-telling livestream channel. There must be many people who are jealous of the streamer. It’s normal to have competitors.]
[I wonder if he is a good fortune teller or is the host a better fortune teller?]
[Wait a minute, this person’s ID looks familiar. I think I’ve seen it somewhere before.]
[I know him. He is a popular numerology guru on Weibo, with more than 300,000 Weibo fans. He also has a livestream account on the Shark platform, but he doesn’t have many fans. There are only a few people who watch the livestream, and the popularity is less than 50,000.]
[Then is he here to gain popularity?]
… …
Seeing these barrages, <Jianghu Divine Calculator> coughed slightly, and a hint of guilt slipped through his eyes.
These viewers were right: he was indeed here to gain popularity. He actually didn’t know how to tell fortunes. He usually relied on random fabrications to tell people’s fortune. Most of his Weibo fans were fake accounts that he bought. The viewers in his livestream channel was his real popularity.
Most netizens did not believe in fortune telling. Fortune telling livestreams were very niche—the market was small, and the audience was not large at all.
He thought that he—who was already little popular in comparison to the rest of the divination streamers—was considered powerful among his peers, but last month, a fortune-telling livestream appeared on the Shark Platform and exploded in popularity.
His first reaction was, damn it, this guy has no moral ethics and just thrives on marketing!
When he clicked on the channel, he found that the streamer was a beautiful woman with an immortal spirit, but An Rugu was too decisive and was not careful about her pronouncements at all. She not only knew the past, but also the future. Wasn’t this just hype?
He felt envious and jealous in his heart, so he went to join An Rugu’s livestream channel today and somehow won the lottery.
He wasn’t just here to gain popularity but also to compete!
As long as he revealed that An Rugu was only full of dramatics, her popularity would definitely flow to him instead.
<Jianghu Divine Calculator> cleared his throat, touched his beard, and said, “Host, I’m here to ask questions using your divination skills.”
An Rugu’s expression did not change when she heard this, and she even felt some interest stir in her heart. “Please pay the divination fee: a high-powered gun salute.”
What <Jianghu Divine Calculator> didn’t know was that she has already seen information about him before. In the past, when HK guild was trying to recruit her, they sent her some information about other divination streamers—and that included <Jianghu Divine Calculator>.
This guy didn’t know how to tell fortunes; he only worked as a psychological counselor.
“You pay first.”
<Jianghu Divine Reckoner> immediately rewarded An Rugu with a high-powered gun salute.
“What do you want me to calculate for you?”
<Jianghu Divine Reckoner> took out a photo and said calmly, “My information is readily available. If you search on the Internet, you will know my last name, where I live, and how many people are in my family. This person is my disciple, his information doesn’t show up anywhere. If you can tell his identity and background, you win. If you can’t tell, then I win.”
This apprentice was his latest disciple. He lived thousands of miles away from Nancheng and was a very ordinary person. If he stands in a crowd, no one would pay any attention to him. It is impossible for An Rugu to know any information about him.
A smile appeared on the face of <Jianghu Divine Calculator>, as if he was already seeing the scene where he had successfully snatched all the millions of fans in An Rugu’s livestream channel.
I Livestream Divination to the World translated by Maela @ whitemoonlighttranslations.com
T/N: Jianghu—literally rivers and lakes—is the realm where wuxia and xanxia is set. It is generally conceived to be somewhat similar to, but exist separately from, the ‘normal’ world. Wuxia is the Chinese martial heroes genre; xanxia is also martial heroes but has a more fantasy setting.
ADD-ON T/N: We encountered the name of this pre-destined guest before—he’s one of the metaphysics livestreamers that An Rugu identified as not real masters. At the time, I called him ‘Jianghu Divine Reckoner’ because ‘calculator’ reminded me too much of the gadget. But for some reason, I changed it to ‘Jianghu Divine Calculator’ here 😳😅🙈 Anyway, let’s just keep it like this.
