After Su Nian neatly kicked Wang Zhi out of the livestream, she quickly moved on to the next segment.

"I’m about to drop a lucky bag!"

The viewers in the livestream were already very familiar with Su Nian’s rules, so they got ready as soon as they heard her announcement.

The festive red lucky bag had just been sent out, and it wiggled cutely on the screen.

DING!

[Congrats to Qing Huan for grabbing the streamer’s lucky bag!]

[Why isn’t it me again!!!]

[Tears of jealousy are streaming down my face. I swear I’ll get it next time!]

[Whatever. Looking on the bright side, maybe it’s because I’m not an unlucky soul!]

After Su Nian sent a private message to Qing Huan, she invited her to join the stream.

The moment the video call connected, the viewers cried out in surprise.

[Isn’t that the young lady from the Wang Group?]

[The one who dated a security guard for love?]

[The one going through her rebellious phase in her twenties?]

[It really is her! Her family is so rich, but isn’t that a rental apartment she’s in now?]

On the screen was a girl with beautiful, striking features, currently situated in a tiny rental apartment where she looked completely out of place.

The rental didn’t even have a sofa. A quick glance revealed mottled stains on the walls.

Just from the view on screen, you could get a general sense of the rental’s appearance—it was indeed very small.

She sat on the edge of her bed. Seeing the viewers’ comments, an embarrassed look flickered across her face.

’Running away from home for love was one thing!’

’Having a rebellious phase in my twenties was fine too!’

’But the problem now is, I broke up with him!!!’

’I thought I’d found a sweetheart who only loved me, but it turns out the bastard was just a complete scumbag!’

Seeing the embarrassment spreading across her face, Su Nian smiled. ’So it’s an old acquaintance.’

’This girl’s eyes are clear. Although she’s a bit lovesick, it’s just a temporary lapse in judgment.’

When Su Nian had first arrived in this world, the two of them had been at odds.

"Hello, please pay the divination fee first."

As soon as Su Nian said this, another round of discussion erupted in the live comments.

[You guys think she doesn’t even have the money for a divination?]

[Hard to say. She seems really hard up right now.]

[Seriously. I remember seeing news about her before. A single meal for her used to cost tens of thousands. Does this apartment of hers even cost two thousand a month in rent?]

She shot Su Nian an annoyed look, her eyes full of resentment. She pouted, clearly displeased.

"Sister Nian, I helped you curse out Mu Wan plenty of times before!"

Su Nian nodded. The girl was indeed loyal. Although they’d had their conflicts, she found the "white lotus" Mu Wan even more unbearable.

[They know each other?]

[Is the world really this small?]

[Well, it’s actually pretty normal if you think about it. The streamer’s family background must be extraordinary!]

[Yeah, the streamer and Wang Qinghuan probably have similar family statuses.]

[Man, I wish I was like Wang Qinghuan and had such an awesome friend!]

Su Nian: "Alright, you can owe me the fee for now. Pay me back once you’ve gone home."

"So, tell me, what did you want to ask about today?"

Wang Qinghuan was shocked. "I have to put it on a tab!?"

But seeing Su Nian’s unruffled expression, she nodded and agreed.

Then she cursed through clenched teeth, "I must have been possessed or something, a terminal case of love-brain! I insisted on running off for love, but who knew that damned scumbag would try to trick me into going home to swindle money once he saw I was broke!"

[Possessed, terminal case of love-brain... that’s a pretty fitting description.]

[Happily rushing off for love, only to find out he’s a total scumbag, HAHAHAHA, I’m dying of laughter.]

[Person above me, hold your laughter. Her pajamas seem to be worth over eight thousand.]

[Was just about to laugh my head off, but suddenly I lost the urge.]

Seeing Su Nian’s lips curve into an amused smile, Qing Huan grew even more annoyed.

’My head must be full of cement! Insisting on chasing freedom... I’ve lost so much face!’

"Get to the point!"

"I know, I know."

Qing Huan rolled her eyes at the live comments and continued.

"I was so mad I got sidetracked. So, I ran off for love and rented this apartment. It was fine at first. You know, ’love is all you need.’ I didn’t feel hungry at all."

[This rich girl is hilarious, I can’t take it.]

[Help me, if you’ve got the gift of gab, then keep talking!]

[So funny, she’s such a great storyteller.]

"In the beginning, I was busy dating that scumbag, so it was okay. But things have gotten weird recently. After we broke up, I started living in this apartment alone, and I keep feeling like there’s a ghost."

[Wait, what? Isn’t this supposed to be a ’love-brain gets a reality check’ story?]

[The plot seems to be taking a weird turn.]

"I wanted to go home at first, but I felt like it would be too humiliating, so I kept toughing it out. But things have gotten stranger and stranger these past few days."

"I’ve always been a poor sleeper, so I could just about accept having sleep paralysis. But now it’s leveled up! Something often walks around my room in the middle of the night, and it even imitates my mom’s voice, opening the door and telling me to get up and drink some water!"

As she spoke of this, her expression turned grim, losing the nonchalant air she had when talking about the scumbag.

Su Nian’s expression grew serious. ’I can indeed see a trace of black energy in this room, but it shouldn’t be enough for a ghost to manifest.’

Su Nian: "Tell me in detail."

"From the beginning, I could never sleep well because the environment here is really bad. Plus, whenever I closed my eyes, I’d experience that sleep paralysis thing, so I often stayed up until the middle of the night before I could sleep."

"Then, a few days ago, I actually heard my mom telling me to get up and drink water. I was half-asleep, but that jolted me wide awake."

"Because I know my mom. She’s obsessed with her beauty regimen and is super strict about her sleep schedule. Her normal routine is to be in bed by nine and up at seven. Besides, if she wanted to remind me to drink water, it’s not like we don’t have maids at home!"

[Aww, if it were me, I would’ve answered.]

[This ghost is pretty smart.]

[That sounds terrifying. A ghost imitating a family member in the middle of the night to tell you to drink water... I feel like nine out of ten people would fall for that.]

"I was wide awake in an instant. I didn’t dare open my eyes or answer it. I just kept my eyes shut and pretended to be asleep."

At this point, she became agitated, almost unable to maintain her elegant, high-society composure.

"It even makes noise when it walks! It can imitate the voices of my other family members and even open the door."

[It can even open doors?]

[Even ghosts can evolve, but I’m still an idiot.]

[Hey, person above me, don’t say that. You’re just a run-of-the-mill moron.]

"Yes, I’m sure the door opened, because it makes a CREEEAK sound when it does. This is my first time living in this kind of place, so I remember that sound very clearly."

"And the ghost came in! It circled my bed a few times, constantly telling me to get up and drink water. I’ve developed a habit now: I sleep like crazy during the day and stay completely awake at night. But the weird thing is, even though the ghost definitely opens the door and comes in, the door is always closed when I wake up the next morning."

The fear in her eyes didn’t seem fake. Su Nian glanced around the rental apartment, feeling puzzled as well.
