Ten minutes later, the names of three destined people came out.
An Rugu first had a private chat with the first destined person <Clear Skies After the Rain>. She appeared to have been waiting ever since she clicked on the lottery button and immediately replied that she could connect via video call.
An Rugu then clicked on her homepage and was about to press the dial button when she saw from the corner of her eye that the other party’s homepage had 80,000 fans; she looked to be like a small internet celebrity.
She paused her hand slightly then pressed the dial button. Three seconds later, the call was connected, and the image of the destined person appeared on the screen.
The destined person was a woman, good-looking, and the clothes shown in the camera were all famous brands. The furnishings behind her such as cabinets and desks were quite exquisite, and it could be seen that the family was in a good situation.
She raised the corners of her lips and greeted An Rugu with a smile, “Host, hello, I am <Clear Skies After the Rain>.”
An Rugu said politely, “Hello.”
Someone in the livestream channel recognized <Clear Skies After the Rain>, so they started talking about her in the barrage.
[Oh my God, isn’t this the infamous <Clear Skies After the Rain>? Unexpectedly, she and I are both following the host. Sisters, I’m getting goosebumps!]
[Who is this? I do not know her.]
[She is an emotional blogger. She often shares her daily life with her husband. Her style is really greasy and very Versailles-like. My eyes hurt just by looking at her.]
[Is this true? I do not believe. Could there be such a Versailles livestream?]
‘Versailles’ has become a hot word on the Internet in recent years. If someone showed off his family background or other things the own openly or secretly, they will be called Versailles.
<Clear Skies After the Rain> saw the doubtful comments of the viewers in the livestream channel and was a little angry at this description. “What do you mean by greasy and Versailles? I am just sharing my daily life. Do I now I have to be criticized for even sharing what is true?”
She took her mobile phone, stood up, and showed everyone her mansion. She seemed very unhappy, “I said on Weibo that my husband was rich, and I didn’t tell a lie, but I only praised him partly. There are many places where my husband is really not good. For example, you see…”
She pointed the camera outside the window to a luxury car parked in the yard, “My husband gave me a sports car last Valentine’s Day. The color was actually a soft pink! I am already thirty, does he want me to go around driving something like this? The tender color will make people laugh at me, but what can I do? I really can’t understand the aesthetics of a straight man1 like my husband.”
At the end of the telling this story, she sighed, as if she was very dissatisfied with her husband.
Audience in the livestream channel: “…”
[I feel like something is wrong, but I can’t put my finger on it.]
[Obviously she was scolding her husband as a straight man, but the real point was that her husband gave her a luxury car. She was clearly showing off her wealth!]
[Overtly derogatory but secretly praising, this really is the old Versailles.]
When <Clear Skies After the Rain> saw these comments, she didn’t feel angry but rather enjoyed them. She really came here just to show off her wealth and good life. She would be uncomfortable if no one recognized it.
She didn’t feel much about being scolded that she was being Versailles, she just let others scold her.
Then, she casually picked up a pink Chanel bag, “Last time, my husband bought me a Chanel bag. Look, it’s so small it’s useless for doing groceries. A Hermès has a large capacity and can hold a lot, making it comfortable for shopping. I feel like he just wasted lot of money for nothing, a straight guy is really stupid.”
Audience in the livestream channel: “???”
[Rich lady, if you don’t want the Chanel bag, just give it to me.]
[The stink is too strong and I can’t stand it anymore.]
[Hahahahahaha why does your husband dote on you so much and still want you to buy groceries in person?]
The expression of <Clear Skies After the Rain> remained unchanged, “I am a full-time housewife, and I don’t have much entertainment. I feel very empty, so I went to learn cooking and started by buying ingredients. But I almost set the kitchen on fire last time. He said that this suite can no longer be lived in, so we need to move to another one. I know it costs a lot of money to get the kitchen renovated, but I only wanted to cook for my husband and now he says I don’t need to.”
Audience in the livestream channel: “???”
<Clear Skies After the Rain> ignored the barrage and talked about her recent affairs as if unintentionally, “Because I am not very talented in cooking, I have too much free time and can only go to the gym with my friends. Now that I have developed my abs, my husband said that it wasn’t as comfortable to hold me as before.
“Do you know of any quick way to make firm abs disappear?”
Audience in the livestream channel: “???”
[I suspect you are in Versailles, and I have proof.]
[<Clear Skies After the Rain>’s husband was too mean to her! I’m jealous! I ate ten thousand lemons.]
[I think <Clear Skies After the Rain> is having a great life. Who doesn’t want to be <Clear Skies After the Rain>?]
[Was it because she saved the world in her previous life that she married such a husband?]
The direction of the barrage in the livestream channel gradually shifted towards the grand lifestyle of <Clear Skies After the Rain>, and many people expressed their envy.
Meanwhile, An Rugu’s heart was as calm as water, without any reaction at all.
She picked up the teacup, took a sip of tea quietly, and then said, “Now the divination begins, please pay the divination fee, a high-powered gun salute.”
<Clear Skies After the Rain>n nodded and happily gave a high-powered gun salute; the gift’s special effects flashed in the livestream channel.
An Rugu looked at her face intently and paused.
Her marriage…

T/N: ‘Versailles’ literature used to mean something that shows off ostentatious wealth—influenced by the Palace of Versailles. It’s harmless fun and a form of escapism—how many times have we read about a rich second generation showering the FL with the latest limited edition bags or flexing that hard-to-come-by plate number of their super slick sports car?
But recent trends has highlighted the ‘humble-bragging’ aspect of it, and the term ‘Versailles’ now has the negative connotation of expressing one’s wealth by pretending to put yourself down.

FOOTNOTE:
- ‘Straight man’ here doesn’t refer to sexual orientation but to a stereotype of a man who thinks a girl is prettier with her hair long, all girls like pink, a flower bouquet should be roses, etc. ↩︎
