Qi Ran browsed the system shop and suddenly noticed an item called "Bad Luck Charm".
The user suffered bad luck for three consecutive days, and could only escape danger by encountering the user in person.
Isn't this a prop tailor-made for them?
While they couldn't accomplish practical things, they could easily convince Zhao Ling, through metaphysics, that they were his lucky stars.
Qi Ran immediately exchanged the bad luck charm and handed it to Lu Yuncheng: "You must personally stick this on the factory director tomorrow."
Lu Yuncheng looked at the scribbled talisman in his hand, unable to understand the meaning behind his wife's actions, but he still accepted it with some skepticism.
The next day, Lu Yuncheng took advantage of Zhao Ling's momentary lapse in attention and stuck the talisman on his back. The talisman vanished the moment it was placed on him.
Lu Yuncheng rubbed his eyes, still unable to believe what he was seeing.
An even more unbelievable scene unfolded: as soon as Zhao Ling walked next to a machine, the machine suddenly tipped straight towards him.
Lu Yuncheng hurriedly tried to reach out and pull him over, but the moment his fingers touched his clothes, the machine shattered into pieces, all falling around Zhao Ling, but none of the parts hit him.
Zhao Ling was still in shock. Seeing Lu Yuncheng following behind him, he spat at him.
He said this person was a jinx. Anyone who met him would be unlucky!
Who would have thought that as soon as he finished speaking, he stepped on a screw and fell flat on his face.
Is today his unlucky day? How could he be so unlucky!
He was seething with anger, so he vented it all on Lu Yuncheng: "What are you standing there for! Get to work! Did I hire you to the factory to freeload?"
Lu Yuncheng answered "yes" repeatedly and disappeared in a flash.
Seeing how afraid he was, Zhao Ling felt a little better. He thought that as long as he didn't run into Lu Yuncheng today, his bad luck would be fine.
But things got even worse for him. His chances of survival at the factory were practically nonexistent.
It wasn't until he met Lu Yuncheng that all his bad luck was resolved.
At this moment, Zhao Ling's face was swollen like a pig's head. He held Lu Yuncheng's hand tightly and refused to let go, his eyes blurred with tears.
What jinx? This is his lucky star!
Zhao Ling gritted his teeth and raised Lu Yuncheng's salary by another 50 yuan, declaring in the factory: "From now on, Deputy Factory Director Lu can do whatever he wants. Anyone in the factory who dares to gossip about him will be fired!"
Lu Yuncheng grinned from ear to ear; his wife's method really worked!
When it was time to leave the factory, Lu Yuncheng wanted to go home and tell Qi Ran the good news of the day, but Zhao Ling insisted on dragging him home, saying that today was a Mercury retrograde and only having him by his side would make things better.
Lu Yuncheng thought that the factory manager had just given him a 50 yuan raise, so he would reluctantly accompany him.
He first called Qi Ran to tell her about what happened at the factory that day, then told her about his raise, and finally went home with Zhao Ling.
Qi Qi, on the other end of the phone, smiled broadly upon hearing the news.
Zhao Ling, huh? Trying to dump my man? Just wait till I get my hands on you! This time, Zhao Ling was completely under her thumb, and she even got a raise!
That family is truly a blessing to the Lu family!
During dinner at the Lu family home, Qi Ran told the Lu family about the incident with five parts pride, three parts nonchalance, and two parts smugness.
"This is great news!" Old Mrs. Li was the first to affirm.
As expected, Old Lady Li never misjudged anyone. Look at her beloved eldest and youngest sons—they are both very capable!
"Oh dear, and besides, the conflict between the factory manager and Yun Cheng has already been resolved." Qi Ran stared at Chen...
Her shallow gaze held a hint of arrogance, and her tone was mocking: "I think someone's plan is probably not going to work."
Everyone present understood Qi Ran's implied meaning. Old Mrs. Li, who was just looking for a way to curb Chen Qianqian's arrogance, immediately echoed Qi Ran, saying, "Alright, everyone listen to me. Fifth son's wife will go to work in the fields with the whole family tomorrow!"
"Mom. No way." Lu Yunzhi was the first to stand up and object to Old Lady Li.
Grandma Li looked at her fifth son with resentment. He was asking her for money yesterday, but today he turned his back on her and wouldn't even give his own mother any face!
Lu Yunzhi continued, "Mom, Qianqian has found a job."
These words exploded like a thunderclap among the crowd: Shen Qianqian had actually managed to find a job!
Since the policy on individual business owners has not yet been fully implemented in all counties, Shen Qianqian and Lu Yunzhi plan to keep this matter a secret for now. They will talk about it after everything has settled down.
"What kind of job is it?" Old Mrs. Li immediately asked Shen Qianqian.
Shen Qianqian replied modestly, "I'll just go work at my dad's factory."
After hearing this, everyone looked at each other, realizing that the fifth son's wife was just sponging off her parents.
But since her father has the means and her family is so wealthy, of course she can do whatever she wants.
Well.
Qi Ran felt a pang of bitterness in her heart. She couldn't compare to Shen Qianqian in any way. Why could Shen Qianqian enjoy the fruits of her labor just because she had a good father, while she had to struggle even while heavily pregnant?
As Shen Qianqian ate her rice, she asked Qi Ran, "But sister-in-law, I really admire you."
of. "
Other members of the Lu family: Is the sun rising in the west today? This is the first time I've heard the fifth son's wife exaggerate.
Sister-in-law.
Qi Ran pondered what evil intentions Shen Qianqian might be harboring, but after thinking about it for a long time, she still couldn't figure it out.
Shen Qianqian smiled innocently: "Sister-in-law was able to resolve such a deep conflict between my brother and the factory manager. Just as my sister-in-law and mother said, a virtuous wife is half the battle won."
Hearing the constant stream of flattering praise, Qi Ran felt quite pleased with herself and subconsciously replied, "Of course, you have no idea I used..."
As she spoke, the alarm sounding from the system suddenly echoed repeatedly in her mind.
Qi Ran only realized now that this little girl was trying to trick her into revealing information! Luckily, she had the system's warning, otherwise she would have fallen for Shen Qianqian's trap!
"Fifth sister-in-law, this doesn't seem to be your business!" Qi Ran coldly left these words, put down her chopsticks, and returned to her room.
Shen Qianqian watched Qi Ran's departing figure with a slight sense of regret. She was almost able to get information out of him, but unfortunately, she was interrupted by that damn luck system.
But did she think that would prevent her from finding out the news?
The next day, Shen Qianqian got up early and made a special call to Shen Yuan. Her father was eager to take over Zhao Ling's factory. He had spent a lot of money to bribe Li Qiang, the person in charge of those orders, in order to secure those orders from Zhao Ling.
Li Qiang was originally a strong candidate to become the deputy factory director, but Lu Yuncheng, who suddenly appeared out of nowhere, directly took his place. How could he not be angry?
When he heard Shen Yuan say he wanted to destroy Zhao Ling's factory, the two hit it off immediately and reached a consensus.
Li Qiang had witnessed the strange events that occurred at the factory yesterday and told Shen Yuan about them in detail, who then relayed the information to Shen Qianqian.
After hearing the whole story and understanding what had happened, Shen Qianqian began to take revenge on Qi Ran. Letting Qi Ran live too happily was not her intention.
