A few days ago, ever since the arrival of the wild men as a labor force, Ruan Fuxi and her guests had noticeably improved their performance. However, Meng Zhan and Shi Lili were still struggling through their tasks. Their presence allowed viewers to see that this variety show still had traces of its original survival theme.
In recent days, no matter how challenging the tasks devised by the production team were—such as climbing trees to pick coconuts, hunting, or identifying edible plants—Ruan Fuxi and her team managed to complete them with ease. This newfound time allowed Ruan Fuxi to establish a routine of fortune-telling in the evenings.
It was said that Ruan Fuxi's effortless completion of tasks had frustrated the director so much that he couldn't sleep for several nights, nearly driving him to despair. Director Wang had devised tasks that were already quite difficult, but he hadn’t anticipated that some guests would be so skilled that his painstaking arrangements seemed like child’s play in front of Ruan Fuxi. They were completed effortlessly.
Director Wang was indeed on the verge of despair, but he quickly found solace in the rising viewership of the show. Especially after the task segment each day, Ruan Fuxi would go live to read fortunes in front of the camera, bringing additional traffic to the program. He felt that one of his best decisions was to relentlessly pursue Ruan Fuxi to join the show.
As he watched Ruan Fuxi on the live stream, he began to take her fortune-telling seriously. After all, she only read three fortunes a day; such an opportunity couldn’t be missed. Initially, when Ruan Fuxi had offered to read fortunes for others a few days ago, some people were skeptical. However, after several days, those skeptics had been proven wrong. Now, Ruan Fuxi was not just "Sister Ruan," but truly a master in her own right.
Director Wang thought to himself that whenever a good opportunity arose, he would also seek out Ruan Fuxi for a reading. At that moment, a light-hearted woman who had been selected approached and handed Ruan Fuxi a gold ring.
"Sister Ruan, this is for your fortune-telling."
Ruan Fuxi felt a bit helpless; over these past few days, regardless of whether they were men or women, tall or short, everyone had started calling her "Sister Ruan." She accepted the gold ring and set it aside, signaling for her to begin.
Under Ruan Fuxi's gaze, the woman began to recount her story.
My name is Liu Liu. For the past few days, I have been having the same nightmare, where a strange man calls my name, which has left me unable to sleep well. I don't know if I'm overthinking things or if it's something else.
Ruan Fuxi looked at her pale complexion and spoke up, "You have a heavy aura of yin energy around you. It's not just your imagination."
Liu Liu's expression changed slightly, fear creeping in. "Sister Ruan, what's wrong with me? I've just been on the island these days, not doing anything. Where could this yin energy come from?"
Ruan Fuxi replied, "You've been subjected to a ghost marriage. Did you dream about anything unusual yesterday?"
[What the heck? I just entered this variety show and I'm already hearing something so terrifying—ghost marriage! That's too scary!]
[It can't be like what they show on TV, right? Is this young lady's family doing it for money?]
[No way! Most parents love their children; they wouldn't go that far.]
[Waaah, Sister Ruan, you have to save this young lady!]
Liu Liu nodded at Ruan Fuxi's words. "That's right; my dream changed last night. It was about me marrying that unfamiliar man."
Ruan Fuxi furrowed her brows. "You didn't consummate the marriage, did you?"
Liu Liu quickly shook her head.
