Recently, my boyfriend, Cui Hao, became obsessed with a fortune-telling female anchor.

The female anchor claims to be the 36th generation successor of Baiyun Guan - Wu Huazi.

Not only can she read people's personalities by touching their bones, but she can also see their fortunes by analyzing their appearances.

Ever since his good buddy recommended this live stream and strongly claimed that he found a high-paying job and married a beautiful and wealthy woman with the help of the anchor,

Cui Hao stopped looking for work and stayed at home all day watching the live stream, hoping to gain Wu Huazi's favor.

Twenty-four hours a day, except for sleeping and the only mealtime when he can spend time with me, Cui Hao keeps the live stream of Wu Huazi playing aside.

"Xiaoya, you have no idea how amazing she is."

Cui Hao eats the food I bring him while pointing at Wu Huazi, who is live streaming and telling people's fortunes.

"The guy who connected with her today only showed his face for ten seconds, but Master Wu Huazi predicted that he would have great luck today and receive a promotion call within ten minutes."

"And then, that guy actually received a promotion and pay raise call during the live stream."

"Clearly, she can rely on her looks, but she also has such abilities!"

"Isn't she amazing?"

Cui Hao looks at me with sparkling eyes, hoping for my agreement.

I glance at Wu Huazi.

Wu Huazi has a beautiful face, especially her pair of phoenix eyes, which can bewitch people when she glances at them.

I smile and nod, "She's quite impressive."

Upon hearing my words, Cui Hao feels proud, as if saying, "I'm her fan, and I'm honored."

"Unfortunately, the immortal master only reads three people a day. I've been waiting for a long time to become familiar to her. But I believe it won't be long before she chooses me. Once she connects with me, I'll know when I can find a job. By then, I'll support you."

Cui Hao is full of confidence.

I smile and say nothing, silently tidying up the dishes and utensils on the table and heading to the kitchen.

Unexpectedly, while I was washing the dishes, Cui Hao really connected with Wu Huazi.

"Master, could you please help me calculate when I can find a job and where my next job will be?" Cui Hao's voice is filled with excitement.

There was no response from Wu Huazi for a while, maybe she was performing some kind of divination?

Anyway, Cui Hao became anxious and urged, "Master, have you figured it out? How will my job be?"

After a cough from the other end, she said, "Your fate is being observed by someone superior. Although I can sense a bit of it, I can't say."

"What superior person? Is it good or bad?" Cui Hao became anxious.

Wu Huazi sighed, "Some things cannot be said. If they are said, they won't come true."

After that, I didn't hear Wu Huazi speak anymore.

But strangely, Cui Hao didn't say a word either.

Did the connection get cut off? Was he disappointed?

I finished washing the dishes and went to the living room to look for Cui Hao, but there was no one there.

"Cui Hao?"

No one responded.

Just when I thought Cui Hao had gone out, I heard his voice coming from the study.

"Darling, I'm here."

He opened the door, holding his phone and pointing it at me.

"What are you doing?" I frowned.

I usually don't like being photographed and dislike having a phone pointed at my face.

"I... I'm connecting with the master to show her the layout of our house." Cui Hao didn't put away his phone but held it up in front of me.

"Don't point it at me!" I emphasized.

"I'm not pointing it at you, I'm looking at the floor." Cui Hao pointed to the floor with his phone, his face turning red.

I glanced at his phone, and indeed, the camera showed the floor and walls, with only my footvisible in the frame.

"Why do you need to show her the layout of our house?" I asked, puzzled.

Cui Hao hesitated for a moment before saying, "Master Wu Huazi said that the layout of the house can affect a person's fortune. By showing her the layout, she can give us suggestions on how to improve our luck."

I sighed inwardly. It seemed that Cui Hao was taking this fortune-telling thing a bit too seriously.

However, I didn't want to dampen his enthusiasm completely, so I said, "Okay, show her the layout if you want."

Cui Hao's face lit up, and he quickly turned his attention back to the phone, carefully showing Wu Huazi the different areas of our house.

After a while, he ended the call and looked at me excitedly.

"Master Wu Huazi said that the layout of our house is quite good, but there are a few minor adjustments we can make to enhance our luck. She suggested placing a small plant in the northeast corner of the living room and hanging a mirror on the wall facing the entrance."

I raised an eyebrow. "A plant and a mirror? That's it?"

Cui Hao nodded eagerly. "Yes, according to Master Wu Huazi, these small changes can bring positive energy into our home and attract good fortune."

I couldn't help but feel a mix of amusement and exasperation. It seemed that Cui Hao was willing to believe anything as long as it came from Wu Huazi.

But instead of arguing with him, I decided to play along. After all, if placing a plant and hanging a mirror made him happy, it wouldn't hurt to give it a try.

So, we went to a nearby plant shop and bought a small potted plant to place in the northeast corner of our living room. We also found a decorative mirror that we hung on the wall facing the entrance.

From that day on, Cui Hao became even more devoted to Wu Huazi's live stream. He religiously followed her advice, whether it was about personal appearance, feng shui, or daily routines.

As for me, I continued to support Cui Hao's interests while maintaining a level-headed perspective. I knew that true success and happiness came from our own efforts and choices, not from relying on fortune-tellers or external forces.

Over time, Cui Hao's obsession with Wu Huazi gradually waned as he realized that life's fortunes couldn't be solely determined by a live stream. He started actively searching for job opportunities, putting his skills and qualifications to use.

Eventually, Cui Hao found a job that he was passionate about and that brought him fulfillment. It had nothing to do with Wu Huazi's predictions or the adjustments we made to our home.

Looking back, I realized that our experience with Wu Huazi taught us an important lesson: while it's okay to seek guidance and advice from others, it's essential to maintain a balanced perspective and take responsibility for our own lives.

Life is full of uncertainties, and it's up to us to navigate through them with determination, hard work, and a belief in ourselves.
