call……
Qin Xiao watched Ye Chen's disheveled departure, his extremely tense nerves slowly relaxing. His back was completely soaked with cold sweat, sticking stickily to his body, making him extremely uncomfortable.
They survived!
The first battle of the game was extremely messy and comical, but in the end... he won!
I only managed to steal a mere 120 points of luck, but it's still a good start!
[Ding! The host has successfully thwarted the chosen one Ye Chen in the first encounter, causing him to lose face and initially shaking his position in Gu Siqing's heart. Overall rating: B+! Reward: 200 Luck Points! Current total Luck Points: 320!]
[Host, you're amazing! You won against all odds! Even though your winning style wasn't exactly elegant, the result is great! Yun Yiyi is giving you a huge shout-out!]
The way the surrounding guests looked at Qin Xiao completely changed. It was no longer the contempt, mockery, and indifference of before, but filled with astonishment, curiosity, and even a hint of… awe?
This useless son-in-law of the Qin family seems to be... not as simple as the rumors suggest!
Gu Siqing walked over. Her cool eyes scrutinized Qin Xiao intently, as if she were seeing him for the first time.
"Are you... alright?" The voice remained cool, carrying a barely perceptible concern.
[Target: Gu Siqing] [Current Affection Level: 0 (Neutral)]
[Influence of the power of rules: Mild (begins to think independently, develops a negative impression of Ye Chen)]
[Triggered Galgame option:] [A: Boasting, "Ye Chen is nothing to worry about! I don't even consider him a threat!" (Consequence: Affection -5, perceived as frivolous, arrogant, and disdainful)]
[B: Plays the victim, saying, "I was so scared! Siqing, you have to protect me! He's so scary!" (Consequence: -10 favorability points, people think you're cowardly, incompetent, and irresponsible)]
[C: Smiles calmly: "Thank you for your concern. It was just a small matter, I handled it easily. Ye Chen's strength is nothing special." (Consequence: Favorability +10, appreciation for your composure, demeanor, and hidden strength)]
Qin Xiao chose C again.
He gently patted off imaginary dust from his body, and his face regained its calm and confident smile.
"Thank you for your concern. It was just a small situation, I can handle it."
Looking at his calm and composed demeanor, compared to Ye Chen's disheveled and furious state just now, Gu Siqing felt, for the first time, a strange feeling of wavering... regarding this marriage that she had originally strongly resisted.
This man may not be quite the same as the rumors suggest.
Qin Xiao knew very well that this was just the beginning. Given Ye Chen's vengeful nature, he would never let this go unpunished. Seven Dragon Kings—this was only the first!
You must quickly familiarize yourself with the system, plunder more fortune, and increase your strength in order to survive in this perilous world!
I glanced at the lonely 320 points of luck on the system interface. This amount of luck probably wouldn't even be enough to refresh a decent system. From now on, I must take the initiative and seek out every opportunity I can!
Defeat the Dragon King and become bigger and stronger!
Qin Xiao glanced at the system interface and clenched his fist.
