Chapter 22: It Will Break Your Heart
Yu Xunge has a big show to perform in a few days.
But before that, she went to the hospital to have a tooth extracted, and then put the magician's dentures in to make room for it.
The dentures were firmly planted in the alveolar bone before the anesthesia wore off.
The second thing she needed to do was figure out how to resolve the matter of the secret room in the Yu family's study. She hadn't expected Yu Qingshan to be so useless, not having discovered it after so long!
In this situation, if she were to claim to be a player from the second closed beta test, even a pig would know who smuggled the treasure out.
On June 8th, Yu Xunge had to make another trip to Hong Kong. Based on the photos of the jewelry and antiques he had previously sold, he urgently had someone make a batch of counterfeit goods that were about 80% similar to the originals, and also got 300 kilograms of fake gold bars. Using his game backpack and Phantom Teleportation, he managed to get them all back to Yu Qingshan's study.
Anyway, there's nothing we need to spend money on recently. When I escaped back in my past life, my parents were still moving all these treasures.
In his past life, Yu Xunhuan kept asking him for money, but that was because he was a beta tester and needed a lot of money. But in this life, he's just an ordinary 9cm warrior, why would he need money?!
After all that back and forth, it was already the 10th when it was finally resolved.
On this day, Yu Xunge not only summoned Yu Qingshan and Yi Qiuguo to the hotel where Yu Xunhuan was staying, but she even wanted to summon Su Yitong to the hotel as well, but the latter was missing an ear and was in no mood to pay attention to her.
Okay, it's fine if the female lead doesn't come. It's also fine if I don't gain her trust. It's also good if the relationship between the male and female leads is strained.
Yu Xunhuan sat on the edge of the bed with her eyes lowered, her face showing an obedient expression that said, "Although I'm in a bad mood, I'll cooperate with whatever my sister wants to do."
After everyone was ready, Yu Xunge made sure the hotel room door was securely closed, then returned to the group and whispered mysteriously, "I've found a way that might cure my brother."
In short, the two seemingly gentle but inwardly impatient people in the room, and the one who was impatient both outwardly and inwardly, all stared at her with wide eyes.
Yu Xunge then said that a few days ago, while waiting for someone in the morning, she was bored and downloaded a game to play. However, the game was gone after only two hours, along with her phone. Most importantly, she had taken all the items and skills from the game! She even searched for the game in front of everyone, but found nothing.
Not only Yu Qingshan and Yu Xunhuan, but even Yi Qiuguo's breathing slowed down. She had a bad temper and was always impulsive, but she knew Yu Xunge's personality and that he wouldn't joke about important matters.
Yu Xunge lowered his voice even further, then took out a tattered gray pouch from his pocket—a four-slot pouch he had obtained from the former owner of the [Gear of Destiny].
Then, in front of everyone, she took out three lunchboxes that were much larger than the small gray bag itself. Then she took out a glass test tube about the size of her little finger, which contained a liquid that looked like a red gemstone. She handed the bottle to Yu Xunhuan: "This is a healing potion from the game. Quick, drink it and see if it can cure you!"
Yu Xunhuan took the bottle of medicine with trembling hands. His eyes were filled with extremely complicated emotions as he looked at Yu Xunge: disbelief, emotion, gratitude, and jealousy.
Yu Xunge said urgently, "Try it quickly!"
Yi Qiuguo was even more anxious than her, constantly urging Yu Xunhuan. Yu Qingshan clenched his fists, looking as if he couldn't wait to rush up and force the medicine into Yu Xunhuan's mouth.
Yu Xunhuan tilted his head back and drank the bottle of medicine, and then... nothing happened. He stared at his pants with a gloomy expression.
He's still a 9cm tall boy.
It's terrible, I've never seen a male protagonist in a male-oriented wish-fulfillment novel with a single-digit number of characters.
What's the difference between 9cm, rounded to the nearest whole number, and 0?
At this moment, Yu Xunhuan was glad that she was an actress. She forced a smile and persuaded, "Even if this doesn't work, we know about this kind of magical thing. I was able to participate this time, and you can participate next time if you have the chance!"
Before the others could speak, she continued, "I originally wanted to invite Yitong here today, so she could also investigate. This game is so amazing, I'm definitely not the only one. The Su family is powerful, and they must have more information than ordinary people like us."
After calming down, Yu Xunhuan asked, "So, what skills did you acquire?"
"It's not a skill, it's a talent you drew. It can make someone lucky or unlucky, and it can modify a person's luck value. You can only use it once a day." As she spoke, she laughed, "Want to try it? I can make your luck 10, that's the highest."
She has decided to disguise her divinely bestowed talent as the [Gear of Fate] from now on. This talent is too useful. Not only can it modify other people's luck, but it can also choose whether or not to hide it from the target. This is simply a perfect skill for doing bad things. It hides when someone is unlucky and shows it when someone does good things. Perfect.
Yu Xunhuan was overwhelmed with mixed emotions. This talent sounded very useful, but it wasn't an outrageously powerful skill that could create a world of difference between people. However, he was also disappointed that it wasn't a healing skill... But all these emotions passed quickly. Jealousy dissipated, and what remained was only gratitude, genuine gratitude.
Yu Xunge was actually willing to tell them such a big secret.
Even though Yu Xunge always held back and refused to give them all the money he earned, at this moment, these grudges began to dissipate.
He thought, forget it, I won't let Su Yitong suppress her anymore, I'll find another way to increase Su Yitong's sense of crisis.
Yu Qingshan's feelings were also complicated. Why didn't his son have such a wonderful encounter? But then he felt a warmth in his heart. He knew that if Yu Xunhuan had such a wonderful encounter, his son might give him a sip of soup, but he would never tell him about it without reservation!
Yi Qiuguo was also filled with mixed feelings. On one hand, she regretted that it wasn't a son, but on the other hand, she was so touched that her heart was burning. She muttered to herself, "What a silly girl, telling her family everything."
Yu Xunge opened several packets of food and invited everyone to eat and chat together. Then, she smiled apologetically and put the packets away, indicating that she would not share them.
Unlike before, when Yu Xunge often gave money to her family, Yu Qingshan and Yu Xunhuan, who knew the family's financial situation, felt that the money proved nothing. They thought Yu Xunge's reservations only made them think she was an ingrate. They always felt that Yu Xunge was keeping something from her family and guarding against them.
But now that Yu Xunge has shared such a wonderful experience with them, and even though she seems to be holding back a little, Yu Qingshan and Yu Xunhuan don't feel that she hasn't done enough. They just sigh helplessly in their hearts, thinking that their daughter/sister is still so stingy.
Yu Xunge didn't have mind-reading abilities and couldn't figure out what the old man and the young man were thinking, but she followed her plan and remained vigilant at all times.
In her previous life, Yu Qingshan and Yi Qiuguo became players after the game officially invaded, and their talents were both mediocre. However, she was determined to eliminate them immediately if they ever won the talent lottery.
