Volume 1, Chapter 169: Sister, playing it wild, aren't we?

Qin Yu frowned slightly, "I'm sorry, I cannot read your fortune."

Potato Bomb lived up to her name; the moment she heard Qin Yu's words, she instantly blew her top. "What do you mean? You can read it for anyone else, but suddenly you can't for me?"

Qin Yu stared at the screen, stunned.

Just when Potato Bomb thought Qin Yu was about to divine her future, she let out a gentle, delicate burgh.

Potato Bomb felt as though she had been deeply insulted, turning red in the face with anger, though nothing of the sort could be seen beneath her excessively heavy aesthetic filter.

"Sister Potato, don't rush to detonate just yet. Why don't you turn off the beauty filter? With that on, how is anyone supposed to read your physiognomy?"

"My thoughts exactly. I'm afraid your V-shaped chin is going to puncture the screen."

"Why don't you change your name from Potato Bomb to Potato Snake?"

"You upstairs are so savage."

Seeing the various teasing remarks scrolling across the comments, Potato Bomb's face flushed crimson.

She silently disabled the beauty smoothing effect, revealing her true appearance.

"Goddess sister!"

"Sister, you're so pretty! Do you promise me you won't abuse special effects and filters anymore? /crying/"

"Aren't your standards for beauties a bit too low? She's got double-eyelid tape, eyeliner, eyeshadow, blush, highlighter, contouring, and false eyelashes all on... At best, this is just very successful makeup."

"But I can't even do basic makeup."

"If I could make myself look like this, I'd tell everyone I meet that I'm a beauty /jump//spin/"

"Are you girls all this fake?"

"Still better than you guys! Not only are you all unkempt, but you're also aggressively mediocre and condescending! If you don't even bother to spruce yourselves up, why won't you let girls pursue beauty?"

"What man wears makeup? Only effeminate sissies wear makeup!"

"Give me a break. Don't male celebrities wear makeup too? Guys like you are just purely lazy, and yet you have to drag down men who do wear makeup."

"Bro, I'm a guy, but I usually do skincare and makeup stuff too. These aren't exclusive to women; as long as you want to improve yourself, you can do it."

"When I heard him say that men who wear makeup are sissies, I really couldn't hold it in anymore. First of all, I'm not a sissy. Second of all, wearing makeup really makes you look completely refined."

As the netizens bickered, the conversation completely derailed. Qin Yu watched as a faint dark aura suddenly manifested between Potato Bomb's eyebrows.

"You've run into a ghost."

She cut straight to the point, startling Potato Bomb so much that she left her mouth hanging open without speaking for a long time. Lowering her voice mysteriously, Potato Bomb said, "There's a ghost haunting our school!"

Qin Yu didn't respond, merely raising an eyebrow to signal her to continue.

"I'm a sophomore medical student. Recently, I don't know what's wrong with me, but I've been having the exact same dream in the middle of the night. In the dream, it feels like I'm locked up somewhere."

"Could it be that you've been under too much stress lately, which is why you keep having dreams?"

"Being a medical student comes with a lot of pressure, right?"

"Having frequent dreams is one thing, but didn't you hear her? She keeps having the exact same dream!"

Potato Bomb shook her head. "It probably isn't because of stress, because all six of us in our dorm have had this dream!"

Qin Yu asked, "What does this dream of yours actually look like?"

Potato Bomb rubbed her nose. "I don't know how to describe it. It's just a feeling of extreme suffocation, pressing down on me so I can't catch my breath..."

"Which medical college do you attend?"

"Beijing-Jing Medical College."

"Tonight at midnight, I'll go take a look at your school."

"Thank you, Master. Thank you, Master."

Potato Bomb wore a look of utter relief, but she didn't rush to leave the live stream link. Stammering, she said, "Master, look, I just sent two 'True Love's Descent' gifts. Does that mean I can get another fortune read?"

Qin Yu looked at her through the screen. Feeling somewhat ashamed, Potato Bomb quickly averted her gaze and spoke in a tiny voice, "If not, never mind. I'll line up again next time."

"He who commits many injustices will inevitably destroy himself."

Qin Yu dropped this profound statement.

Potato Bomb didn't understand, her brows knitting together. "But I'm still a student! There's no way I can give birth to this child!"

"Whoa! What kind of massive piece of gossip is this?"

"Pregnant? Pregnant?!"

"Sister, why didn't you guys use protection?"

Ashamed to speak of it, Potato Bomb immediately switched her special effects back on, as if doing so would allow her to say it without any psychological burden.

"I didn't want this either! But he said it was the safe period and it would be fine. Who knew that just that once and I'd get caught!"

Even through the heavy special effects, distress could still be seen on Potato Bomb's face.

"You need to think carefully. If you abort this child in your belly as well, I'm afraid you'll lose the qualification to ever become a mother in this lifetime."

"Wait, what did I hear? *Also*? She's been pregnant more than once?"

"Goodness! It's university for me too, why is other people's college life so colorful and vibrant while I spend my days watching GGBOY?"

"I had no idea this sister played games so wildly."

Potato Bomb asked, "Then Master, is there any way you can help me resolve this?"

Qin Yu shook her head. "Ever since high school, you've known how to dress up and groom yourself better than other girls. Because of that, you became the campus belle of your class and had countless admirers at your feet."

"At eighteen, you entered junior college. Relying on your hot body and devilish face, you quickly hooked up with a senior student, and that was your first pregnancy."

"At nineteen, you dated three boyfriends at the same time. One was from your own school, one was your high school classmate, and another was a long-distance internet boyfriend you met playing video games. Soon after, you had your second pregnancy. Not knowing whose child it was, you extorted money from all three of them."

"Later, you settled down for two years. In the first year after graduating from junior college and officially entering society, you hooked up with your married boss, and that was your third pregnancy. You wanted to use this child as leverage to make your boss give you a promotion and a raise. Instead, you accidentally got discovered by your boss's original wife... The wife caused a scene demanding a divorce, and your boss was fired by the company because this incident brought negative impacts. You couldn't stay at the company either."

"Later, you found out that your past had long since spread among your circle of friends. To start your life over, you worked hard for a year and successfully upgraded from a junior college degree to a regular bachelor's degree."

"In the first year after your enrollment, you met your current boyfriend, who is also your direct senior."

Qin Yu rattled off Potato Bomb's entire romantic history over the years in one breath.

"I have to hand it to you, Sister Potato Bomb, you really know how to play."

"Families, who understands this? I've been trying to conceive for two years with no results at all, but she manages to get pregnant every single time! I really want to catch this wave of good pregnancy luck /sour lemon/"

"Is it just me who feels heartbroken for those little children? Their parents did wrong, yet they are the ones footing the bill."

"When I got pregnant the first time, I was still young. There was no way I could give birth to the child, right? I was still a child myself!"

"As for the second time, it was because I liked all three boys and couldn't choose which one should be my boyfriend, which is why I kept dragging it out! But clearly, every time I made a mistake, I still got caught anyway!"

"And that business with my boss... In the beginning, it wasn't my willingness at all! How comfortable school is—only after stepping into society do you realize the workplace isn't simple. Later, once the rice was already cooked, as an absolute utilitarian, I could only seek greater benefits for myself. Is there something wrong with that?"

"As for this current time, my boyfriend plans to continue his studies for a higher degree, and I haven't figured out my career path yet. If I give birth to the child now, who is going to raise it for me?"

"Uh... listening to Sister Potato put it this way, I almost feel like she hasn't done anything all that wrong. A 19-year-old girl is just a kid no matter what; it's entirely possible she was tricked into doing that kind of thing by an older boy."

"What about dating three boyfriends at once? How do we explain that?"

"The only thing I find absurd is this! Why is it that others can have three boyfriends at once? Did she snatch away my share?"

"I can't sympathize with this part, but I respect her!"

"That workplace incident is indeed very realistic. When I first entered society, I thought I just needed to work hard, but drinking culture always exists, and the ones pushed out are mostly young and pretty girls... Between self and profit, one slip of the mind and you're utterly ruined."

"Give me a break! Aren't there plenty of career women in the workplace? How did they get through it? Please don't use your own depravity to speak for workplace women, alright?"

"I'm not saying workplace women are depraved! I'm saying women are a vulnerable group in the workplace! They are very easily bullied."

"Is it just me who thinks this sister is actually quite inspirational? Although her personal life is a bit messy, she maximizes her benefits and even studies hard to upgrade her degree..."

"I suspect that if she hadn't spent so much time dating, she would've been sitting in a Tsinghua or Peking University classroom long ago."

"Why is everyone in the comments ganging up on the girl? I admit she did some things wrong, but shouldn't the most hateful ones be the men who got her pregnant? Just for their own momentary pleasure, they leave the consequences for the girls to bear."

"I've been waiting for someone to say this! I also think those guys are too terrible!"

"Strongly advise all sisters to keep their eyes wide open when dating! Never be deceived by the sweet talk of those stinky men! You must, *must* take precautions and protect yourselves!"

...

Potato Bomb's eyes held a subtle expression as she looked at the screen.

Qin Yu continued to expose her. "Actually, that's not entirely what you think in your heart, is it?"
