Master, Your Wife Has Become a Super Star Through Fortune-Telling-Chapter 73 - 74: Buy My Ass

Seeing how anxious she looked, the girl beside her couldn’t help but laugh.

"Sicheng, I’m dying laughing! Fortuna is really not the sharpest tool in the shed sometimes!"

"Alright, Ah Yu. It’s just a livestream, don’t take it so seriously."

As he spoke, he shook his head, clearly disapproving of Fortuna’s obsession with the livestream.

But Fortuna was truly frantic. She was so, so in love with her boyfriend—absolutely crazy about him.

She had been with her boyfriend for seven years. After seven years together, she refused to let go, even though his attitude had grown somewhat cold.

Seven years!

Su Nian glanced at her, then at the other two, who were chatting happily.

She sighed. "It’s not convenient to talk here. Go somewhere else."

Although she found it a little strange, Fortuna obediently moved.

"I’m just going to the restroom!"

With that, she left her seat.

[This girl looks so domineering, but she’s actually really gentle when it comes to her boyfriend.]

[She must be head over heels for her boyfriend.]

[I’m actually so jealous of her. I had a boyfriend when I was eighteen, too. I really, really liked him, but we had to break up because of the college entrance exams. I still think about him even now.]

"Host, Host, what is it?!"

Su Nian looked at the frantic girl on the screen and said, "I’d advise you to focus on your career for now. Don’t worry about marriage yet. There’s a promotion opportunity coming up for you soon, so don’t lose it over your relationship."

Fortuna’s expression turned a bit awkward. She thought Su Nian was just reminding her not to be so fixated on her love life.

"You’re pretty accurate, Host. There really is a promotion opportunity coming up. But I’ve been working hard, so I think my chances are good."

"But I want to ask for some clarification. What did you mean when you said I shouldn’t worry about marriage?"

The girl’s tone became cautious.

Su Nian chose her words carefully. "Have you never noticed that your boyfriend and your best friend are a little too close?"

"Huh?"

Fortuna felt like she must have misheard. Before she could even process what Su Nian had said, she was already making excuses for them, as if by habit.

"Host, it’s like this. My best friend isn’t in the best of health, so I’ve always looked after her like a little sister. My boyfriend is the same way, just by extension. You know, ’love me, love my dog.’ There’s nothing more to it."

[I think you should listen to the Host on this one.]

[Why don’t you sneak back right now and see how the two of them act when you’re not around?]

Fortuna was tempted, but she still refused.

"I can’t. The restroom is in plain sight."

Su Nian then asked, "Did you not know that your best friend and your boyfriend knew each other first?"

Fortuna nodded. "I know that. But they were just regular classmates back then, and they even disliked each other. How could they possibly be doing something behind my back!"

"Besides, my best friend is very innocent. I trust her. She would never do something like that!"

Fortuna still refused to believe it. It was understandable, really. After all, this was her best friend of over twenty years and her boyfriend of seven.

And Su Nian was just a streamer she watched online, a complete stranger in her real life.

Su Nian found it a bit strange. "Have none of your other friends ever warned you?"

Fortuna scratched her head, a little embarrassed.

"Those people only hang out with me because I have money. It’s a good thing my best friend warned me about them!"

Su Nian: ...

[What a stupid, love-struck fool!]

[The Host has spelled it out for her, and she still doesn’t believe it!]

[But you can’t really blame the girl. Her friend seems so sweet and gentle, and they’ve known each other for so many years. Any normal person wouldn’t suspect a thing.]

Hearing this, Su Nian was silent for a long moment. After thinking for a bit, she asked another question.

"Don’t you have two phones? Find an opportunity to leave one on your seat with a call active. Then you can listen to what they say."

[The Host is ruthless.]

[The Host’s brain works so fast!]

[That’s a great idea! I’ve used it before! It’s way better than some voice recorder pen!]

Fortuna froze. ’I really trust my best friend and my boyfriend,’ she wanted to say. But under Su Nian’s calm, clear gaze, she swallowed her words and nodded seriously instead.

She returned to her seat just as before, only this time she was wearing earbuds.

Maybe it was because of what Su Nian had said, but now, no matter how she looked at them, something about her boyfriend and best friend just seemed... off.

"Sicheng, here, try this!"

Watching her best friend casually place a shrimp in her boyfriend’s bowl while ignoring her...

Fortuna’s heart sank. She loved shrimp, too.

But how could her best friend have forgotten? The two of them didn’t even notice her disappointment. They just kept eating and laughing cheerfully.

Fortuna forced herself to take a few bites, then glanced worriedly at the live comments.

[This is definitely suspicious!]

[My bestie and I also grew up together for over twenty years, but to this day, she still thinks my boyfriend isn’t good enough for me!]

[I’m married with a kid, and my best friend still looks down on my husband. If my husband is around, she often refuses to come out to eat with us.]

A knot formed in her chest. As if to vent, Fortuna put her chopsticks down on the table.

But the two of them were still eating and chatting happily. A chill ran through Fortuna’s heart.

She took the phone she had been holding and placed it under the sofa. Luckily, the seats in this restaurant were leather sofa-style booths, which made it easy for her to hide the phone.

"I’m not really hungry anymore!"

It was as if she were throwing a tantrum. Even at this point, Fortuna refused to believe it, speaking in a somewhat childish tone.

Unexpectedly, her boyfriend just smiled.

"Alright, if you don’t want to eat this, why don’t you go buy some snacks from that little shop next door?"

"Yeah, it’s right by the entrance. You can just go get it yourself!"

Hearing this, Fortuna could barely hold back her tears. She used to be so carefree that even when the two of them acted this obviously, she would have dismissed it as her imagination.

She had even been secretly pleased, thinking that their relationship had improved because of her.

But now, she felt like a complete moron.

"Oh, right, remember to bring back a piece of strawberry tiramisu. It’s Rourou’s favorite."

No one noticed anything was wrong with her. Her boyfriend even made the request as if it were the most natural thing in the world.

Looking over at her "delicate" best friend, she saw her smiling shyly, a faint blush appearing on her fair cheeks.

Fortuna couldn’t help but berate herself. ’How much of an idiot was I to have never noticed?’

[So disgusting!]

[This guy’s unwarranted confidence is sickening!]

[This girl was totally blinded by love! How could it have been more obvious?!]

But Fortuna, after holding it in for as long as she could, was known for her fiery, impulsive temper, and this moment was no exception.

She grabbed her glass of water and splashed it right in her boyfriend’s face.

"Buy my ass!"

Dropping that line, Fortuna stormed away.
