"I personally declare that the above statements are entirely true, without the slightest bit of fabrication."
Su Nanqing placed the Sweet Dream Capsule in front of the camera, her tone extremely earnest.
"Don't let its ordinary appearance fool you; it looks just like any other capsule, but it possesses miraculous effects. It will bring you an unforgettable sweet dream and is guaranteed to give you plenty..."
"Each Sweet Dream Capsule is priced at 1,888 yuan. There is a limit of two per customer, with a total stock of only 100 capsules. Once sold out, that's it—no more will be restocked. Please make your purchases according to your needs, and act fast while supplies last!"
Passersby who had just entered Su Nanqing's live stream found this description hard to believe and immediately flooded the chat with mocking comments.
[What? A Sweet Dream Capsule? Isn't that just sleeping pills?] [Believing the streamer's lies is like believing I'm the reincarnation of Qin Shi Huang!] [Streamer, are you seriously not joking? Today isn't April Fools' Day, you know.] [Streamer, are you trying to scam people? A plain, ordinary capsule for 1,888? That's half my monthly salary!] [Sweet Dream Capsule? Ha, I bet it's the streamer's own sweet dream! If any fool actually places an order, the streamer's dream of getting rich quick will come true!]
Had it been the first day of her live streaming, Su Nanqing would have felt hurt and helpless seeing these skeptical comments. But after hosting several sessions, her mindset had long since changed.
Some people simply will not believe you. No matter how hard you try to prove yourself until you lose your voice, it does no good.
That being the case, why bother wishing for their understanding and belief?
Only those who already believe in you will place an order. They usually don't bother sharing opinions; they just buy what they want. Those people were the true audience of the live stream.
Su Nanqing didn't need to waste her energy arguing with passersby. She just needed to control the rhythm of the broadcast and introduce the products step by step.
Whether others believed, bought into it, or placed an order was entirely up to fate.
"I'll say it again: those who believe will experience it, those who don't won't. This is the Nothing Is Impossible Live Stream. As long as you dare to believe, anything is possible—even miracles will happen right by your side!"
Facing the camera, Su Nanqing was no longer shy or timid. Her tone was confident and sincere.
At that moment, Lin Xiuwei had just finished washing her chopsticks and was resting on the sofa.
She tapped on her phone and happened to stumble upon Su Nanqing's live stream.
Seeing Su Nanqing being questioned by a crowd, she couldn't help but jump in to share her story.
[Plum Fragrance Endures As Before]: [It's no surprise people don't believe the streamer. In the past, I wouldn't have believed it either!] [Plum Fragrance Endures As Before]: [But when I actually placed an order in the live stream, received the pills, and used them to cure my daughter's obsession with a toxic romance, I believed it completely!] [Plum Fragrance Endures As Before]: [Not a single word the streamer said is false. Everything above is my personal experience, without a shred of a lie. No matter what, I fully support the streamer.] [Plum Fragrance Endures As Before]: [Thanks to the Love-Curing Brain-Cleansing Pill I bought from the streamer, my daughter finally broke free from her foolish obsession and regained her clarity and reason. In a way, the streamer changed my daughter's destiny...]
As soon as Lin Xiuwei posted these words, the chat exploded.
[Is the user upstairs for real? They sure know how to make up stories—even novels wouldn't dare write this!] [Right? This isn't Zhihu, stop sharing your freshly made-up fiction, OK?] [That Plum Fragrance Endures As Before is definitely a plant hired by the streamer, case closed!]
"Sigh, why won't these people believe me?" Lin Xiuwei muttered, puzzled. "Is there something wrong with how I express myself?"
She furrowed her brows, pulling a long face, wishing she could cross the screen and argue with those internet trolls.
Forget it, forget it. You can't win an argument with them.
After a moment of thought, Lin Xiuwei gave up the idea of squabbling with netizens.
Instead of wasting time arguing with haters, she'd rather use her hard-earned money to support the streamer.
She had already bought Love-Curing Brain-Cleansing Pills worth over 50,000 yuan; what was a Sweet Dream Capsule for just over 1,800?
Most importantly, Lin Xiuwei trusted the streamer's character. She had a hunch that this Sweet Dream Capsule would definitely come in handy.
With that thought, she hesitated no longer and directly placed an order for two Sweet Dream Capsules.
[Plum Fragrance Endures As Before placed an order for two capsules!]
Seeing the system notification pop up, Su Nanqing smiled and expressed her gratitude:
"Thank you for your support, Plum Fragrance Endures As Before!" "Friends in front of the screen, if you have any need for this, please place your orders quickly. There is a limit of two Sweet Dream Capsules per person. Once sold out, they are gone for good and will not be restocked..."
After placing her order, Lin Xiuwei even shared the live stream link to her extended family group chat, enthusiastically helping Su Nanqing promote it.
"Dear family and friends, how has everyone been sleeping lately? If you are troubled by insomnia or plagued by nightmares, you can check out this live stream." "The things recommended by the streamer are magical and amazing. Although the price is a bit high, I guarantee the products are well worth every penny!"
Seeing the message Lin Xiuwei sent in the family chat, her relatives couldn't help but feel suspicious.
Third Aunt: "Xiuwei, what's wrong with you? Why are you suddenly posting ads in the group?" Sixth Aunt: "Could Xiuwei have downloaded some app or scanned some QR code and had her account hacked?!" Second Sister: "I think that's entirely possible. This 'Sweet Dream Capsule' sounds totally unreliable—sounds like some shady cult stuff." "Could Xiuwei have accidentally wandered into a pyramid scheme and gotten scammed, and now she's trying to scam us to build her downline?"
Faced with these doubts, Lin Xiuwei didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and she hurriedly explained.
"Everyone, listen to me! My account hasn't been hacked, I haven't been scammed, and I haven't joined any pyramid scheme!" "I know this sounds a bit far-fetched, but I can confirm I've bought things from this live stream before, and they are truly miraculous. Those who believe will experience it, those who don't won't. If you all feel suspicious, just ignore this message of mine. Sorry for the trouble, and apologies to everyone!"
Lin Xiuwei wanted to recall the link she had posted earlier, but more than two minutes had already passed, so she had no choice but to let it go.
Seeing her say this, the relatives in the family group paid her no more mind.
Half an hour later, Lin Xiuwei heard a doorbell ring. Without any confusion, she walked straight out.
Sure enough, lying on the ground was a courier package with her name written on it.
Where was the delivery person?
Lin Xiuwei looked left and right, but not a single shadow was in sight.
"That really is something else!"
No wonder the live stream was called Nothing Is Impossible. It was a big world with all sorts of wonders.
There were already plenty of things that science and logic could not clearly explain, so why bother dwelling on it so much?
Lin Xiuwei unwrapped the delivery and took out the red wooden box from inside.
The Sweet Dream Capsule was tiny, looking no different from an ordinary capsule.
After carefully reading the instruction manual, Lin Xiuwei took a photo of the Sweet Dream Capsule and poured herself a glass of warm water.
For some time now, Lin Xiuwei had been constantly worried about her daughter and Zhuang Zijie, so anxious that she couldn't enjoy her meals and couldn't sleep well.
In the dead of night, she always dreamed that her daughter's married life was miserable—returning to her parents' home bruised, battered, carrying two children, and crying all the way.
These nightmares left her with lingering fears. Every time she thought of them, her palms would sweat and she would feel depressed and gloomy.
"My daughter's affair has finally come to an end. I hope that after taking this capsule, I can have a sound, solid sleep and a sweet dream..."
