[Isn't this great? They've been in a four-year-long love marathon!]
[Since the young master said it's destined, they must be planning to get married after graduation.]
[Even though it's still 'getting on the bus before buying the ticket,' at least the man is willing to take responsibility!]
It was already the 21st century, and netizens were relatively open-minded. They didn't insist that couples must wait until marriage to consummate their relationship.
Such matters were up to mutual consent between two people. What mattered more was whether the man was willing to take responsibility. Otherwise, the woman would always bear the brunt of the consequences.
"That damn kid! How dare he ignore my advice and do such a thing without permission. I'll break his legs!"
However, You Yuan Ren held more traditional values, unable to accept physical intimacy before marriage.
She was happy that her son had found someone special, but the moment she learned about their plans, her joy turned into rage.
At that moment, Yao Yao nodded and said, "Auntie, breaking your son's legs would be too harsh. But they really shouldn't go through with this today. You must stop them."
"This... this... Is there something wrong with it?"
You Yuan Ren was now taken aback. She knew that when Yao Yao spoke of stopping them, it wasn't just about moral issues.
Could it be that something terrible would happen if they spent the night together? Was this why the young master had looked so troubled earlier? At the thought of this possibility, You Yuan Ren's face instantly turned pale.
"It's not them who have the problem—it's the hotel they booked."
"The hotel owner is a pervert. He installed hidden cameras in the rooms to secretly film videos."
Yao Yao spoke with a grave expression.
It was sheer bad luck that out of all the hotels available, they had chosen one with such issues. This misfortune was likely tied to the girl's unfavorable fate and the boy's zodiac year curse, both of which had brought them under a cloud of ill fortune.
This was their first time staying in a hotel together, so they weren't particularly cautious.
As things progressed naturally between them, their intimate moments were captured by the hidden cameras. Later, the footage was sold to pornographic websites by the hotel owner.
Because both of them were exceptionally attractive, the video quickly went viral on the site. Eventually, some unobscured shots revealed the girl's identity, and someone recognized her in real life.
The perpetrator even sent the video to the girl's parents. Her conservative family was horrified, believing she had disgraced their reputation by engaging in such behavior before marriage.
The girl came from a strict household—otherwise, she wouldn't have endured a four-year love marathon with You Yuan Ren's son, limiting their relationship to holding hands and kissing.
The overwhelming public scrutiny shattered her mental defenses. She couldn't bring herself to face You Yuan Ren's son anymore, convinced that her reputation was ruined and that happiness or marriage was no longer possible for her.
Yet, she deeply loved You Yuan Ren's son and couldn't imagine a future without him.
Caught in the collapse of both love and family, she eventually took her own life by jumping off a building.
When You Yuan Ren's son heard the news, he collapsed unconscious. After being revived by doctors, he was left completely heartbroken. He then voluntarily went abroad for further studies and never returned.
For the rest of his life, he never pursued another relationship, living out his days in solitude until death.
All of this tragedy stemmed from the unscrupulous hotel owner who filmed the video, destroying two families and the futures of two generations.
These predictions were made by Yao Yao based on You Yuan Ren's life path. However, Yao Yao chose not to reveal everything, fearing that You Yuan Ren might not be able to handle the truth.
But You Yuan Ren wasn't naive. Upon hearing about the hidden cameras in the hotel rooms, her blood ran cold.
Whether the perverted owner acted out of voyeuristic tendencies or had other motives, it was clear that neither her son nor the girl would emerge unscathed.
"Thank you, Young Master. I'll call my son right now. Please don't hang up—I'm afraid my stubborn child won't listen to me alone. You need to help me."
"I will assist you," Yao Yao nodded. Once committed to helping, she intended to see it through.
Seeing the young master agree, You Yuan Ren wasted no time. Though it was still early in the evening, she feared that the young couple might act impulsively. If that happened, she'd have nowhere to cry.
Her backup phone was dead, and since she hadn't dared to end the livestream, she rushed to the study to use the landline.
After nearly fifteen seconds of ringing, the call was finally answered just as it was about to disconnect automatically.
"Liu Cong, what on earth are you doing? Why did it take you so long to answer the phone?"
You Yuan Ren's voice trembled with anger as she berated her son over the phone.
On the other end, Liu Cong had no idea why his mother was furious but didn't dare to retort.
He patiently explained, "I was taking graduation photos with my roommates. Is there something urgent?"
Liu Cong was excited about leaving campus soon. At the same time, he recalled his girlfriend mentioning wanting to take their relationship to the next level. He felt both anticipation and nervousness.
The anticipation stemmed from the culmination of their four-year love marathon. He had already decided to introduce his girlfriend to his family, regardless of their approval or disapproval. As for his father's insistence that he study abroad, he firmly refused—he knew he wasn't cut out for academics.
The nervousness came from his lack of experience. He had secretly researched online but still worried about inadequacies, even enduring teasing from his roommates.
Before these emotions could fully settle, he suddenly froze upon hearing his mother say, "Liu Cong, are you planning to stay at a hotel with your girlfriend tonight? And do things you shouldn't?"
Liu Cong was stunned. He hadn't even told his family about his girlfriend yet—how did his mother know?
More terrifyingly, how did she know about his plans to stay with Meng Meng tonight? The feeling was akin to having someone guess the color of his underwear on the spot—it was utterly chilling.
"Did you bribe my roommate?" Liu Cong angrily accused. He had only mentioned his plans to his dorm mates; no one else should have known. His mother's sudden inquiry suggested there was a mole in his dormitory. If he found out who it was, he swore to make them pay.
"What bribery? Your mother knows because I consulted a master who divined this information."
"I'm warning you—if you dare to stay at a hotel with that girl, I'll have your father come to your school and break your legs."
Seeing her son's silence confirmed her suspicions. The young master's predictions were frighteningly accurate. She was grateful for the opportunity to intervene—otherwise, disaster might have struck.
When Liu Cong heard his mother mention consulting a master, he initially dismissed it. When had his mother ever associated with any fortune-tellers?
How could anyone predict something as private as him staying at a hotel with his girlfriend? Preposterous!
Knowing her son well, You Yuan Ren sensed his disbelief. She feared he would proceed recklessly. Even if she flew to his school immediately, it would take four to five hours—by then, it would be too late.
She turned to the young master and pleaded, "Master, please speak to this disobedient child."
"I can do that," Yao Yao nodded. She instructed You Yuan Ren to put the call on speakerphone and adjusted the volume.
Immediately, Liu Cong heard a childish voice.
"Big Brother, since you don't believe Auntie, let me explain. You met your girlfriend during the freshmen recruitment drive for the student council, right? And you were the one who pursued her."
"At first, she thought you were too flighty and didn't want to be with you. But you kept pestering her relentlessly."
Hearing this, You Yuan Ren's expression darkened. She wondered whose genes her son had inherited to behave so shamelessly.
Chasing after someone who rejected him—what a reckless fool!
"There was one time when she suddenly suffered from acute gastroenteritis during the National Day holiday. All her roommates had gone home, but you discovered her condition when asking a neighboring dorm mate to deliver a cake. You then took her to the hospital."
"For three days and nights, you tirelessly cared for her. It was during this period that she began to see you in a better light."
"After she was discharged, it wasn't long before you two got together, right?"
"How... how do you know all this?"
By now, Liu Cong's face had changed multiple times, filled with disbelief!
