Gotta say, these dumbass viewers are pretty creative!

Lu Heng slowly started speaking, "Young Friend Jiu, what would you like to calculate tonight?"

"Master, here's the situation..."

Early August Jiu hurriedly replied, "When I was still in elementary school, my dad started having an affair and often quarreled with my mom."

"Later on, that homewrecker even came looking for my mom, threatening her with words."

"My two uncles got so angry that they ended up beating my dad into the hospital."

"After that, there was no chance for my parents to reconcile, so they filed for divorce at the Civil Affairs Bureau."

"I never liked my dad since I was young, so after their divorce, I stayed with my mom."

"For the past fifteen years, my mom has taken care of me and never remarried, always alone, raising me by herself."

"I often encourage her to find a good man because I can't always be by her side."

"But she thinks she can only consider her own life after I get married..."

As the viewers listened to Early August Jiu's story, they kept sending comments.

"What a great mom!"

"Do I even need to say more about my mother-in-law's character?"

"Compared to my mother-in-law, my father-in-law is a total scumbag!"

"Good job uncles! I say, drag that homewrecker in for a beating too!"

"Jiu, for mom's sake, why don't you marry me first?"

"I'm also from a single-parent family, but my mom initiated the divorce. Maybe I should marry Jiu; it will complete a family."

"Haha! Are you and your dad planning to score both mother and daughter?"

"Guys, I messaged Jiu privately, and she asked me what kind of toad I am?"

"I'm officially known as Emei Mustache Frog, listed in the 'Red List of Threatened Species' by the International Union for Conservation of Nature, 'Dragon Country's Red List of Species' as endangered, and a second-class national protected wild animal. What level of swan are you?"

The teasing from everyone didn't interrupt Early August Jiu's story.

She continued, "Just last month, my mom suddenly met a male friend online and even sent him money."

"There were three times in total, amounting to around thirty thousand."

"After hearing my mom's story, I immediately realized she must have encountered a scammer!"

"After all, this kind of money scam has been reported in the news many times."

"But it's like she's been brainwashed by that scammer because she wouldn't believe a word I said."

"She even stopped me from calling the police."

"She said if I report it, she'll sever our mother-daughter relationship…"

Up to this point, Early August Jiu's eyes started to redden, tears welling up.

Upon hearing this, the viewers understood what was happening.

"It's a scam! Otherwise, how could someone repeatedly send money?"

"Mother-in-law, why are you being so naive?"

"Some scammers specifically target middle-aged and older women, and their scams are always successful!"

"It's common; once these elderly people believe in something, even a herd of cattle can't change their minds."

"Don't remind me, my mom also got scammed recently! The scammer said I'd been detained at the police station for hitting someone and needed ten thousand to resolve it. She didn't even call me to confirm; she just transferred the money. Fortunately, the cops caught the scammer and got the money back."

"Speaking of scams, an old man in our neighborhood was cheated out of over eighty thousand because of some online chatting service."

"666! The old man knows how to have fun!"

"The old man has time and money; he's just in it for the thrill!"

"There's an eighty-year-old in our place who visits a 'Little Red Light' barbershop every now and then. A couple of days ago, he just died suddenly from overexertion, and his family embarrassedly rushed through the funeral without telling relatives."

"Hey bro, what's the story with the 'Little Red Light' barbershop?"

"Cough, cough!"

Seeing the viewers go off-topic, Lu Heng cleared his throat and then asked Early August Jiu, "Young Friend, do you want me to help persuade your mom?"

Early August Jiu nodded and said, "Master, my mom, like me, has been following you for a while."

"We used to watch a lot of your streams together."

"She's also very convinced of your incredible predictive power."

"So I'd like to ask for your help in persuading my mom!"

"No problem!"

Lu Heng nodded slightly and asked, "Is your mom at home?"

"My mom's home right now!"

"Master, could you please hold on a moment?"

"I'll go get her…"

After saying this, Early August Jiu got up and left the room.

She returned shortly with her mother, appearing on the live stream.

Early August Jiu's mom looked very youthful, like a woman in her thirties.

Their mother-daughter resemblance was so strong that anyone would mistake them for sisters rather than a mother and daughter.

Compared to her slightly awkward daughter, the mother exuded an air of mature charm.

At this moment, the live stream audience went wild again.

"Hello mother-in-law! Have you eaten?"

"Mom, you look so young! Sitting next to Jiu, you really look like sisters."

"Hello mother-in-law, it's Celestial Sea Daniel Wu, first time meeting you, please take care of me."

"Jiu, do you need a father? I just like older ones."

"Honestly, I want to be your stepdad, Jiu!"

"I just love the mature ones, little girls don't get it!"

"There's no such thing as Thief Cao, or maybe everyone is Thief Cao!"

Under the teasing barrage of comments, Early August Jiu's mom appeared a bit uneasy.

"How should I address you, young friend?"

Lu Heng asked.

"Hello, Master, my last name is Liu."

Early August Jiu's mom replied, slightly nervously.

"Okay, I'll call you Liu then."

Lu Heng nodded and smiled, "Everyone can talk freely in my live stream, no need to be tense."

"I just heard from Jiu that recently, Liu, you met someone online and transferred thirty thousand. Can you tell me what happened?"

After hesitating for a moment, Early August Jiu's mom explained, "Since the divorce, I've been alone."

"Some friends suggested that since my daughter is grown, I should find someone so I won't be lonely when she's not around."

"But I thought it would be best to wait until my daughter gets married before I find someone to accompany me in my later years."

"Until last month, when suddenly someone added me on WeChat, saying they were introduced by a friend."

"He said his name is Smith Wang; he used to serve in the Eagle Country Navy, was a Colonel before retirement, and is now running an import-export business."

"If we hit it off, he plans to take my daughter and me to live in Eagle Country..."
