Chapter 450: Chapter 456: Love-Brained
She continued her explanation, her expression one of deep anguish.
"My husband is such a good person, but his mother has ruined him. He never used to have these filthy thoughts. It’s all because she brainwashed him so thoroughly!"
As she spoke, she looked up at Su Nian, her eyes—the only part of her face visible—brimming with hope.
"Master, can you do a reading for me? Tell me how to make my mother-in-law die faster. I can’t bear to see my husband being twisted into this kind of person by her!"
She made this outrageous request so openly and righteously, and with her face streaked with tears, it was as if asking for such a thing was the most natural thing in the world.
The viewers were also completely baffled.
[If she’s an actress, I’ve got to say, her commitment to the role is insane!]
At this point, the woman still looked completely justified, making people wonder if she had misspoken or if they themselves had misheard.
[Damn! Just damn! Where in the world did they hire an actress who can shatter your entire worldview like this?]
[How can she say something like that out loud? Isn’t the streamer afraid of getting banned?]
Su Nian was also at a loss for words. She looked at the woman before her, having only read her palm so far.
But from the woman’s features and the look in her eyes, she could get a general sense of her disposition.
To use a popular modern phrase, she was what you would call "love-brained" to an extreme.
Simply put, in her mind, her husband was always right, and everyone else was always wrong.
But even so, Su Nian had thought that she would at least have a bit of a mother’s protective instinct.
But to her surprise, the woman didn’t seem to care about the children she had lost. Instead, she was fixated on the idea that her "dear husband" had been corrupted by his mother.
’What kind of psycho is this?’
A dark look crossed Su Nian’s face. She simply couldn’t comprehend the woman’s logic.
The woman was still looking at Su Nian, her eyes filled with desperate hope.
"I know it’s wrong of me to make such a bold request, but my mother-in-law is just too wicked. She harmed my children, and I could let that slide. But what gives her the right to harm my husband!"
"Besides, since she harmed my children, she deserves to be punished. What I’m suggesting is only fair! She’s already taken three of my children; she can’t be allowed to corrupt my husband too!"
Finally, the woman delivered her concluding statement: "I can always have more children, but I only have one husband!"
[I don’t even know what to say... this is unbelievable. It doesn’t feel fake at all!]
[I hate watching bad acting, but when it’s this over-the-top, I’m actually kind of into it.]
[Fam, you all still think this is an act? This is real! This streamer has never had a single session go wrong!]
[Well, that’s a new one. I can’t believe morons like this actually exist in the world.]
[Excuse me, but did her husband save her life or something?]
[I don’t think he saved her life. I think he’s the one who made her terminally ill!]
[What a nutcase. I’m done.]
[You know, this woman reminds me of someone from my town. Her whole family is rotten to the core, but she insists her husband can do no wrong. In reality, her husband has a second and third mistress on the side, and she’s still living in a fantasy, thinking she’s found her true love!]
Su Nian gave the woman a strange look, but she was completely lost in her own world.
"My mother-in-law is a terrible person, but my husband is truly wonderful. Streamer, I’m begging you, please help me! I’ll give you however much money you want, just as long as you get rid of that old hag for me!"
Su Nian never thought that one day, in her capacity as a fortune-telling master, she would receive this kind of request.
Her brand was clearly fortune-telling, yet here was someone trying to hire her as a hitman.
For a moment, she didn’t know whether to chide the woman for her lack of legal awareness or praise her for her sheer audacity.
Su Nian said, "We live in a society with laws, you know."
But the woman immediately shot back, "I know we have laws! So can’t you just use a method that the law can’t prosecute you for? You know, like they say in stories... having a ghost come to claim her soul, or planting a Poisonous Insect on her, anything like that would work! Streamer, as long as you take care of her, I’ll definitely give you a huge sum of money, okay?"
Su Nian looked at her and sighed once more.
’Making money really is a nasty business sometimes.’
It was one thing to run into a ’love-brained’ client like this, but Su Nian had actually expected the woman to ask her to use a Gu to change her husband.
She never would have guessed that the woman was so confident in her husband that she’d pin all the blame directly on her mother-in-law.
’I guess I’m still too young and inexperienced!’
