Chapter 37 The Schemes of the Previous Life
They arrived in S City on the morning of the 13th and went straight to the hospital after leaving the airport. The old man was still lying down, but Yu Xunhuan wasn't lying down anymore. He was getting married in a few days and Su Yitong had dragged him to rehearsal.
This was the first time Yu Xunge had ever heard of a wedding requiring rehearsals.
Upon arriving at the hospital, they gave Yu Qingshan two bottles of basic treatment medication.
Yu Qingshan stared blankly at the ceiling. Yi Qiuguo pried open his mouth and poured the medicine down his throat, but Yu Qingshan didn't react. Yu Xunge watched coldly, thinking that the old man had become a vegetable.
She pulled Yi Qiuguo aside and whispered to her what had happened.
Yi Qiuguo stammered, unsure of what to say. She had kept this a secret from her daughter for so many years, and revealing it now would be too hurtful. So she simply said that she didn't know either.
Yu Xunge wasn't really concerned; her main purpose in making this trip was to investigate the two people's divinely bestowed talents.
In her past life, she didn't have any investigative tools either; all the information she knew was either from her own observations or from what others told her.
Yi Qiuguo said in her previous life that her divinely bestowed talent was related to cooking. The food she made had a chance to increase a person's attributes, but the chance was only 5%.
She also said at the time that Yi Qiuguo and Yu Xunhuan were indeed mother and son, as their divinely bestowed talents were both related to cooking.
But looking at it now, Yi Qiuguo's divine talent is related to fire. As she talks more and more, the damage of fire-related skills will be increased, and it will reset every day.
She almost instantly understood why Yi Qiuguo always called her home for dinner in her past life, and why the food was already prepared every time she returned. The food was of average taste, but the ingredients were all very high-end. She was also the type of person who would repay at least 4 or 5 points if someone treated her well. So she would always leave something for Yi Qiuguo and Yu Qingshan after dinner.
No wonder... all of this must be to complement Yu Xunhuan's [God of Cookery] talent, right?
High-quality ingredients guarantee a high rating for this dish, but the taste is just average, which means the rating is average. As long as the rating is below 80, the critical hit effect of eating it will not be triggered, and I will not associate these dishes with Yu Xunhuan, let alone attribute points.
In this way, one can both move oneself and give back to one's family without actually profiting from it. Moreover, one can unknowingly give away one's intangible luck to Yu Xunhuan as money for food.
Looking back now, she realizes that she would have a period of bad luck every time she went home for dinner, and she even thought that she and her hometown were really incompatible.
On the other hand, Yu Xunhuan did not lie to himself completely. He said that his talent was that the food he made would double the buffs after being eaten, and she did indeed get double the buffs after eating it.
Yu Xunhuan would sometimes specially create his own dishes for her to double the effect of eating them, but after two years of eating them, she never gained any attribute points.
How ingenious! By pushing all his skills to their limits, he gained my trust while simultaneously scheming against me, without ever letting me reap any real benefits.
Yu Xunge declared that he had failed to learn it!
He wasn't surprised that Yu Xunhuan was envious of his luck. She had been lucky since childhood; her initial luck value in the game was 8, which was already higher than most people's. Although he didn't know why he, with his good luck, had missed the game's closed beta test...
Hmm? She missed the first closed beta test because she was tricked by Liu Zhengliu.
But I missed it the second and third time... What was I doing on June 6th and October 10th in my past life?
It's been too long, so Yu Xunge shouldn't remember it very clearly.
But these two dates are very special, not only because they are the dates of the closed beta test, but also because they are close to the date of Yu Xunhuan's engagement and wedding!
She quickly remembered something.
Although she couldn't remember the exact dates and what she had done, she could still recall events from a certain period. She remembered that a few days after Yu Xunhuan's engagement, he suddenly called her one morning and said that he had used the Su family's connections to find her a project and asked her to meet the other party. She remembered that when she was picked up by the Su family's driver that day, she looked out the car window and it was just dawn.
Before Yu Xunhuan got married, he would often ask her to accompany him to rehearsals. Later, he even asked her to go to the wedding venue every day to keep an eye on things, even though the Su family was the ones doing all the work and it wasn't her turn to get involved...
She remembers being very annoyed during that time, because not only did she have nothing to do at the scene, but every time she wanted to play on her phone to relieve boredom, the Su family would drag her to look at the decorations.
Yu Xunge stood in the bathroom of the ward, clenching her fists tightly.
So you were planning this all along?
Yu Xunge stared at the water flowing into the pool, and the hatred that had subsided somewhat because of stealing Yu Xunhuan's [God of Food] talent surged up again!
Why?
Not only are they not telling her these things, but they're also letting her miss out on them again and again?!
She turned off the tap and calmly looked at herself in the mirror.
Why should she spend time thinking about the reasons why her enemy harmed her?
It's unnecessary and pointless!
All she needs to do is return them one by one!
Yu Xunge greeted Yu Qingshan, who was lying on the bed, and then left.
Yu Qingshan's talent is called "The Liar." For every lie he tells, his attack power increases by 0.1%, resetting daily. Furthermore, he can also detect lies.
This was the same thing he had told himself in his past life; he hadn't lied.
But sometimes the most sophisticated lie is the truth.
He doesn't need to fight. How many lies did he tell Yu Xunge? Where can she verify them?
This family...
As Yu Xunge walked out of the hospital and stood in the sunlight, she still felt a chill seeping into her bones.
How could she be this family's biological daughter?
Never mind, let me think about what I did.
She wasn't much better off.
They're all treacherous and cunning: Yu Qingshan's old silver coin, Yi Qiuguo's stupid silver coin, Yu Xunhuan's small silver coin, and her beautiful silver coin.
And then there's that idiot Yi Qiuguo.
Let's all love each other and make do!
On the 15th, Yu Xunge went with Yu Xunhuan to the place where he and Su Yitong were rehearsing their wedding. She looked at Yu Xunhuan from afar. He was clearly smiling, as if he couldn't see any pain at all. There was no despair, no anger, and no sorrow.
But Yu Xunge became happier and happier as she watched. The more successfully she suppressed her emotions, the better. Just like her, every time she laughed at Yu Xunhuan and the others, she would retaliate even more fiercely. She was waiting for the day he would explode.
After enjoying Yu Xunhuan's performance and mask to her heart's content, she pulled Su Yitong aside and said to her mysteriously, "I have a wedding gift for you, something from the game. Where would be a convenient place to give it to you?"
Su Yitong was also a little curious. At this time, things in the game were still very rare. She pulled Yu Xunge to the dressing room. Yu Xunge waved and asked Yu Xunhuan to come over as well. After arriving at the dressing room, Yu Xunge took out the bed that made people's faces look yellow.
The game items, even when unclaimed, reveal their information with a single touch. Su Yitong thanked them with an expressionless face, but her eyes were shining.
Yu Xunhuan breathed a sigh of relief. Although he was a little embarrassed, this thing... well, it hit the nail on the head! He needed it, desperately needed it!
After several days of gloom, Yu Xunge brought him the only good news he had received in recent days, and Yu Xunhuan looked at Yu Xunge gratefully.
