Many viewers saw how outstanding the pre-destined guest was, and they flooded the livestream channel.

[I don’t have any skills, I’m just good-looking. Look at me, handsome guy.]

[This older sister, I don’t have much ability. I only have three houses in the city, a car, and a small amount of tens of millions. If you like this older sister, please leave your contact information.]

[Dammit, rich woman, I don’t want to work hard anymore.]

[Young master doesn’t know the fragrance of soft rice¹!]

[He just finished the college entrance examination, so he’s probably only 17 or 18 years old. Ahh, let’s forget it.]

Lu Yao caught a glimpse of these barrages, calmed his expression, and said firmly, “I’m an adult, but I already have someone I like, I’m sorry.”

Looking back at An Rugu, “I actually have nothing to ask.”

His studies were already excellent, his family atmosphere was very harmonious, and he was in good health.

There was only one thing that was burdening his heart, but he didn’t really want to ask about it. It was destined not to be—what could fortune-telling change?

Some viewers in the livestream channel were immediately disappointed. After all, this tender and handsome man’s heart already had a master.

“Since you have nothing to ask, let me help you settle your marriage.”

Lu Yao—who was poked in a painful spot—suddenly raised his head and looked at An Rugu. The master’s eyes were clean, clear, and without any impurities, making him feel like he could hide nothing in front of her.

He could only say, “…Okay.”

An Rugu glanced at his face, “According to your eight characters, you have a strong body but you are implicated by the food-injury star. You have a peach blossom, and it is a secret love. This secret love has lasted for two years, right?”

[Such an excellent little brother still has an unrequited crush on someone?]

[I ate ten thousand lemons, I’m so envious of the person he had a crush on.]

Lu Yao lowered his eyes, “Yes, it has indeed been two years. Because I was worried about affecting her studies, I never gave voice to it.”

“Your wealth star has been destroyed, and there is no capable star deity to rescue you. You should be heartbroken.”

Lu Yao’s perfect mask showed a rare crack. He raised his hands to cover his face, preventing the audience in the livestream channel from seeing his expression. A deep voice came out from between his fingers.

“Well, my confession was rejected. I like her, and I really thought she liked me too, and we made a tacit agreement to apply to the same university—Beijing University.

“But when the admission notices came out, it turned out she had applied not to Beijing University but to Haimen University. One is in the north and one is in the south.

“When I saw the list of results at the head teacher’s place, I was completely stunned. Her scores had always been very stable and more than enough to study in Beijing University with me, but she somehow changed her mind. I still don’t understand.

“So I took the initiative to call her and asked her why she applied to Haimen University.

“Impulsively, I confessed to her.

“But she…”

Lu Yao didn’t say much, but the audience could guess from his expression that he must have been rejected.

[Hey guys, this is a love affair between two top students.]

[The predestined guest likes the other person so he thinks they must also be interested in him. Is that what happened?]

[Yes, isn’t one of the three major misconceptions of people that they think others whom they like also like them?]

After Lu Yao calmed down, he put down his hand and watched these barrages, feeling a rush of complicated emotions in his heart.

After a long time, he said with a look of acceptance, “Yes, I was just being narcissistic. She definitely doesn’t like me, that’s why she rejected me so decisively.”

His mouth was calm, but his heart hurt as if it was being held in a clenched fist.

How could she not like him?

When someone would tell a joke aloud in class, everyone would burst into laughter, and she also couldn’t help but laugh, and she would turn to look at him and she would have stars in her eyes.

As for why he knew this, it was probably because he also liked the other person.

Amidst the laughter, the two looked at each other, and then looked away tacitly.

They were deskmates, and she would often look at him in a daze. Once he accidentally picked up the notebook she dropped, and his name was all over the open page.

A person couldn’t hide the look in their eyes when they love someone. He didn’t believe that he was only wishful thinking, so he became more and more devoted to her over the years and was completely shocked when he was rejected.

Lu Yao snapped out of his thoughts and turned to look at the framed photo on the desk. It was a photo of six people. Their classmates knew that the two of them had ambiguous feelings for each other, so they deliberately made the two of them stand in the middle for this picture.

This was the only photo of them together, and he treasured immensely. However, contrary to his expectations, this relationship was destined to be fruitless.

He grabbed the photo frame and stuffed it into the desk drawer, not wanting to look at it anymore. He has been rejected. It didn’t matter anymore whether the other party liked him or not.

Maybe it really was just wishful thinking on his part, he thought bitterly.

At this time, An Rugu’s faint sigh came from the microphone, “But, your peach blossom is not indifferent to you.”

Lu Yao held the phone tightly, his heart beating faster, “Really?”

“Do you have a picture of her?”

Lu Yao changed his previous calm attitude and took out the photo again from under the desk in a panic, “… Actually, I don’t really think she hates me, so then why did she reject me?”

An Rugu looked at the girl with the beautiful smile standing next to Lu Yao in the photo. She calculated with her fingers and frowned slightly.

“She has a weak body and a strong financial star, and her personality is more reserved than you. You at least dared to confess your feelings, but she couldn’t dare to do so. Moreover, she is sentimental and indecisive. Even if she encounters someone she likes, she will lack confidence and will not show her love.”

The destined guest was handsome, had good grades in the college entrance examination, and had good character. No matter which school he went to, he would be the dream guy of countless girls. When meeting such a dazzling person, it was completely normal for a girl of her temperament to have low self-esteem.

Lu Yao was stunned for a moment, and a deep surprise emerged from the bottom of his heart, so… did the girl he liked also liked him back?

He felt both sweet and distressed in his heart, “Is she so timid? I’m afraid I scared her with my sudden confession.”
