26: Chapter 26 A Perfect Life? There aren't that many perfect things in this world!
Humblebragging! This is a naked humblebrag!
The viewers in the livestream were so envious their teeth were aching.
"Listen! Listen! Is this even human talk?"
"Booming business, a happy family, good health... This is literally the life I dream of!"
"Does Boss Sun need an adopted son? The kind that can eat a lot!"
"Is he here to get his fortune told, or is he here to rub it in our faces?"
"That hits home, bro. I'm still eating instant noodles, and he's already living a fulfilling life."
Su Yun listened to Boss Sun's words but didn't rush to respond.
He leaned back in his chair, his fingers tapping lightly on the table.
A fulfilling life? How can there be so many fulfilling things in this world.
When the moon is full, it wanes; when water is full, it overflows.
Boss Sun is speaking so confidently, isn't he afraid of biting his tongue?
"Boss Sun is indeed a blessed man."
Su Yun praised him indifferently, "But since you've connected, we should talk about something, right?"
"Looking at your physiognomy, Boss Sun, your children palace is full, so you must be very proud of your children, right?"
This comment really hit the spot for Boss Sun.
His eyes lit up, and he immediately sat up straight.
"Master is truly a Master! You saw it at a glance!"
"That's right! If I had to say what I'm most proud of in this life, it's not how much money I've made, but my three children!"
As Boss Sun spoke, he took an exquisite photo frame from the side and aimed it at the camera.
"Master, look, and everyone else take a look too."
"This is a family portrait of our five, taken just last month."
In the photo, Boss Sun sat in the middle, next to a well-maintained, beautiful middle-aged woman.
Behind them stood three young people, two men and one woman, all of whom looked quite good.
Boss Sun pointed to the young man wearing glasses on the left side of the photo, his tone full of showing off.
"This is my eldest son, twenty-four this year. He's been a straight-A student since he was a kid!"
"He's currently studying for his master's degree at Cambridge in the UK, studying something like... Financial Management! When he comes back, he's going to take over my business!"
The chat was flooded with "Awesome" and "Envious."
Boss Sun became even more spirited, his finger moving to the pretty girl in the middle.
"This is my second daughter, twenty-one years old, a piano genius!"
"She's won international awards and is now pursuing advanced studies at the Shanghai Conservatory of Music. Her temperament is just like a celebrity's!"
Finally, Boss Sun's finger landed on the boy on the far right, who looked about eighteen or nineteen.
His eyes became exceptionally gentle, even carrying a hint of doting affection.
"This is my third child, just started his freshman year."
"Although this kid isn't as good at studying as the eldest, or as talented in art as the second, he's the one I love the most."
Boss Sun brought the frame closer to the lens, pointed at his youngest son's face, and said proudly.
"Look at these eyebrows and eyes, this nose, this mouth."
"They're practically carved from the same mold as me when I was young!"
"His temper and personality are just like mine, straightforward! Loyal!"
"My friends in the business world all say that among the three children, the third one looks the most like me!"
The more Boss Sun talked, the more excited he became; the pride of being a father was almost spilling out of the screen.
The viewers in the livestream also cooperated by spamming the chat.
"It really does look a bit like him!"
"These genes are amazing, a family of handsome men and beautiful women."
"Boss Sun's life has been worth it, having money, leisure, and such promising children."
"This is a true winner in life, I'm so envious."
However, in the midst of this harmonious atmosphere, Su Yun remained silent.
He looked at the family portrait on the screen, his eyes somewhat strange.
Does he look like him? Indeed, at a glance, there is a slight resemblance.
But as a cheater with a system, Su Yun never looks at things based on appearances.
"System, activate Tianji Divine Calculation."
Su Yun chanted silently in his heart.
The next second, a stream of data that only he could see directly covered the top of Boss Sun's head on the screen.
[Name: Sun Jianguo] [Age: 52] [Occupation: Building Materials Company Boss]
[Recent Luck: Extremely ominous. A vast green grassland on top of his head; he is about to face the complete collapse of his life's faith, and the "fulfilling" family he was once so proud of will shatter in an instant.]
[Past: Started from scratch in his early years, struggled for half a life to accumulate a substantial family business. Twenty years ago (at age 32), he suffered a major car accident, causing irreversible damage to his lower body, permanently losing reproductive function, but he has been kept in the dark, mistakenly believing he had recovered...]
[Future: After the truth is revealed, extreme anger will cause high blood pressure, leading to hospitalization. After recovery, he will completely break ties with his wife and three "children." Although he will have money in his later years, he will die alone...]
[Sin Value: 10] [Detailed Crimes: Minor violations existed during his early engineering projects, with some commercial fraud, but it was harmless and there are no major criminal records.]
Seeing this, the corners of Su Yun's mouth couldn't help but twitch.
He looked up at Boss Sun, who was still rambling on about how his youngest son looked like him.
He looked again at the glaring entry on the system panel.
He looked once more at the color of Boss Sun's luck above his head—so green it was glowing, so green it was shining, practically bright enough to serve as an eye-protecting plant for a phone screen.
This is no happy Boss Sun. This is basically the scene of a "Hulk" transformation.
The key is that Boss Sun is completely unaware, even continuously emphasizing "looks the most like me."
This is just too ironic.
"Master Su? Master Su, why aren't you talking?"
Seeing that Su Yun hadn't made a sound for a long time, Boss Sun thought he had been stunned by his happy life.
He felt even more smug and waved his hand.
"Is Master thinking my good fortune is too great, and you're embarrassed to speak?"
"It's okay, it's okay! I know it's not easy for Master to livestream."
"How about this, to thank Master for listening to my rambling, I'll gift another ten Carnivals! Just consider it incense money for Master!"
As he said this, Boss Sun was about to click on the gift list.
Just then, "Boss Sun, don't gift anything yet."
Su Yun suddenly spoke, interrupting Boss Sun's movements.
His voice was very flat, with no discernible emotional fluctuation.
But for some reason, the chat in the livestream that had been spamming and jeering inexplicably decreased a lot.
Everyone sensed something off in Su Yun's tone.
Boss Sun was also stunned for a moment, his hand stopping in mid-air.
"What does Master mean by this? Too little? If it's too little, we can add more; money is not an issue!"
Su Yun shook his head. He adjusted his sitting posture, leaned forward slightly, and looked straight at Boss Sun in the lens.
That gaze was very sharp. It was as if he could see straight through a person's soul.
"Boss Sun, let's put the money issue aside for now."
"I just looked at your physiognomy and heard what you said, and I suddenly remembered something."
Boss Sun looked confused: "What is it?"
Su Yun didn't beat around the bush and directly threw out the first question.
"Boss Sun, do you remember a very serious car accident twenty years ago, the year you were thirty-two?"
As soon as these words came out, Boss Sun's expression changed. The smug smile that had been on his face stiffened, replaced by a hint of surprise.
"Master is divine! How did you know about this?"
"That was twenty years ago; I hadn't made my fortune yet, I was running transport at a construction site."
"That time was really miserable; both the person and the vehicle flipped into a ditch, and I lay in the hospital for more than half a year before I saved my life."
As Boss Sun said this, he subconsciously touched his thigh, as if the pain from that year still lingered there.
When the viewers in the livestream heard this, they immediately became spirited.
"Holy crap! Master is about to start casting spells again!"
"He can even calculate such old history? He's got some skills!"
"I have a feeling this car accident is definitely a key foreshadowing!"
