Chapter 472 - 218: The Talisman Flew on Its Own! There Really Is a Red Line!_3
These people are together as a result of weighing the pros and cons. They can’t find anyone better and can’t reach the one they truly want, so they just find someone relatively okay and not distasteful to marry and get by.
Especially those who have been in a relationship for a long time but never got married. Once they break up, they lose their yearning for love. They might just get married through matchmaking or to someone who’s nice to them, and they won’t talk about love like they did before.
Then there’s the young and beautiful ones who meet someone wealthy, who gives them a monthly allowance of 10,000 or 20,000 yuan. Even without love, when weighing the pros and cons, they’ll still be together.
In these situations, as long as both parties are together without infidelity or mistakes, it won’t trigger a Minor Punishment, Major Warning.
But these people aren’t truly in love either, so they naturally won’t trigger the Red Line.
In modern society, being together ≠ being in love.
Just then, an angry female voice suddenly rang out, "We’ve been married for 4 years. Why don’t we have a Red Line? Does this mean after 4 years of marriage and having 2 kids with you, there’s still no love?"
The man got slapped but remained silent, evidently feeling guilty. After all, when living through the daily grind, where’s the passion of love?
Any feelings are just familial, not romantic anymore; now everything’s for the kids. If I’d known, I wouldn’t have come to the Chen Family.
That couple who saw this scene visibly sighed in relief, thankful for their quick thinking in pretending to see the Red Line.
Just then, a shout of surprise rang out; a large crowd dispersed, revealing a pair of men.
That’s right, two men. They were holding hands, smiling blissfully, seemingly happy.
Chen Han noticed them and was dumbfounded because the two men’s wrists really had a Red Line.
Oh my gosh!
He recalled a joke he heard before:
Nowadays, men are so strange. Why insist on finding women? Can’t they find men? By then, they’d have two houses, two cars, a betrothal gift of several million, and they could find a technician together.
As for the women left over? Be the technician!
When this joke came out, the first one to comment was called a genius.
Did someone actually try this?
Chen Han just felt it was eye-searing and didn’t dare to look at the two men’s blissful expressions.
The Enlightenment ceremony ended, tourists all around prayed as well, and the elder aunt returned with the Duster, ready to return the statue to the hall.
Following her instruction, the people of the Chen Family carried the Matchmaker God back to the Demon-Vanquishing Celestial Venerable Hall. Watching the statue being carried away, those who still had Red Lines wrapped around their wrists watched intently, some even followed it to the hall.
Naturally, many couldn’t resist sharing this miraculous event on their Moments, online, or on Tiao Yin.
Chu Wan was just like that. She’s actually a small internet celebrity with hundreds of thousands of followers. She came with her boyfriend apprehensively, and now things seemed to turn out well.
So she immediately wanted to share this miraculous event. Looking at the Red Line in her hand, she took out her phone to take a picture, but to her shock, the phone screen was just a snowy static, with no image at all.
"Is the phone broken?" Chu Wan wondered, quickly turning the camera away, only to find that the lens worked just fine elsewhere.
When she pointed it back to the red string, it turned to static again.
This red string simply couldn’t be photographed, as if some force was interfering with the phone’s shooting.
Chu Wan felt helpless. Originally, photographing this red string would definitely attract a lot of traffic and attention, but now she couldn’t do it.
But this didn’t stop her desire to ride the hype. She quickly started recording, "Let me share with you something you might not believe. Today at the Chen Family’s Matchmaker God Statue Enlightenment ceremony, you won’t believe what I saw."
"Patriarch Chen waved his hand, and three Talismans flew over. They even ignited automatically as he spoke, circling the statue twice before burning out."
"Even more unbelievably, someone tried to secretly film the Matchmaker God Statue, and their phone was destroyed... After we sincerely prayed, my boyfriend and I actually got the Red Line on our wrists as described in Patriarch Chen’s previous video."
After recording, she tagged Chen Family and added a title, then uploaded it directly.
Because the Chen Family is quite trendy now, her video quickly drew attention, and comments started appearing:
"If you know we won’t believe it, then don’t share!"
"Haha, your story is fascinating, but too bad it’s no video, no truth!"
"Why don’t you say the Matchmaker God also descended?"
Chu Wan really wanted to say that the Matchmaker God must have really descended, or how else could the Red Line be explained?
Looking at those comments, she felt a bit frustrated. She wanted to prove it, and suddenly her eyes lit up. She could livestream, that way the viewers might see the screen turning to static.
Chu Wan thought about going live, with the room title: "Proving the Red Line to everyone!"
Thanks to the video’s attention, the live room quickly had over 100 people online, growing faster than her usual broadcasts. And comments popped up:
"Proof!"
"Proof!"
"..."
This made her realize she was capitalizing on the buzz, so she quickly said to the audience in her live room, "It seems everyone wants to see for themselves. I’ll now prove it to you, in a moment I’ll film my own wrist, and the live room will definitely show static because of some special energy interference."
With that, she turned the live stream camera to her wrist, but the next moment, she was stunned as the stream ended, not turning to static as she expected.
