Chapter 18: I Won the Prize!



Soon, a refreshing sensation returned, causing her to let out a comfortable sigh.

My mind calmed down in less than two minutes.

Jiang Zao felt that she hadn't changed at all, so she didn't bother Xiao Qi anymore and turned to watch TV.

Jiang Zao was eating watermelon and watching Liu Ha when her parents returned from their walk.

Then we saw Mr. and Mrs. Jiang sneaking in!

Dad Jiang couldn't hold back any longer: "Zaozao!!! We've made it big! We've made it big! We've made it big!"

Jiang's mother quickly slapped Jiang's father's hand, angrily saying, "We agreed that I would announce this news! How could you do this!"

Father Jiang scratched his head sheepishly: "Hehe, wife, I couldn't resist. Go ahead and tell me."

Standing in the entryway, Aunt Jiang coughed solemnly and straightened her clothes: "It's like this, given our family's excellent character, upright family traditions, love and willingness to help others, our daily assistance to small animals, elderly people from impoverished families, and some left-behind children..."

Jiang's father couldn't hold back any longer: "Wife, get to the point."

Jiang's mother glared at Jiang's father.

Jiang's father wisely zipped up his mouth.

Jiang's mother turned her gaze back: "Ahem, your father and I were bored today, so we bought a lottery ticket, and we won."

Dad Jiang added, "After we bought the lottery tickets, we went for a stroll in the garden. On the way back, since it was lottery day, your mom and I looked it up. Guess what?"

Jiang Zao's performance was filled with curiosity and innocence: "What's wrong, Daddy?"

Jiang's mother patted Jiang's father on the shoulder!

Dad Jiang, shut up.

Let the leader speak.

Jiang Zaozao looked at her mother with innocent and earnest eyes, asking expectantly, "Mom, tell me quickly."

Jiang's mother couldn't hide her smile: "Our family won the lottery this time! Your father and I calculated it, and after deducting the 20% tax, we'll get [amount] yuan!"

After listening to Jiang's mother's story, Jiang's father excitedly exclaimed, "That's right! More than eight million! That's enough to ensure we'll be set for life!"

Jiang Zao praised Xiao Qi in her heart: Xiao Qi, your system is quite intelligent. It even knows the amount of money you will receive after paying taxes. That's amazing.

Xiaoqi, who watches TV dramas: Of course!

Looking at her parents, Jiang Zao, even though she knew the outcome, still appeared excited and genuine.

Jiang Zao: "Oh my god! We're going to be rich!!!"

Jiang Zao's inner thoughts: I finally know why I was given this acting skill. Look, it's all for now. This skill is so useful. I feel like I can win an award for Best Actress any minute now!

Xiaoqi, who was interrupted from watching TV again: ...Speechless

Inner monologue: I really didn't want her to use it now, but... as long as she's happy.

Father Jiang: "My goodness, so much money! How are we going to spend it?!"

Aunt Jiang laughed and joked, "You're really like Versailles, how could anyone worry about not knowing how to spend money?"

Father Jiang chuckled: "Wife, let's get ready to embark on a blissful world tour! We've got the money now, let's switch from domestic travel to world travel."

Jiang's mother also looked forward to it, but then she thought, "No, the college entrance exam is just around the corner, it's a crucial time, we have to be there for them."

Dad Jiang also realized, "Oh, right, there's also Zaozao, this little burden!"

Jiang Zaozao angrily exclaimed, "Dad!"

Father Jiang laughed heartily.

Father Jiang: "Then let's wait until that little rascal Jiang Zaozao finishes her college entrance exams before we go out to play."

Jiang Zao: "Hmph!"

Jiang's mother happily patted Jiang Zao's head: "Aren't you about to injure your legs? Should we hire a tutor for you?"

Jiang Zaotian broke down: "I don't need Mom, I can study by myself. I'm very good at studying now."

Thinking of Jiang Zao's consistently mediocre grades, Jiang's mother's lips twitched slightly. A good student? She didn't believe it.

Father Jiang chimed in, "Zaozao, it's only been two months. Listen to your mother, we still need to find a tutor, otherwise this time will be wasted."

Jiang Zao really didn't want to! Besides, she now has the skills of a genius and a photographic memory, so she doesn't need a teacher to watch over her at all.

Jiang Zao said in a spoiled tone, "Mom~ Dad~ I can really study now, and since I'm a humanities student, most of the knowledge requires memorization, so I can do it all by myself."

Looking at Jiang Zao whimpering on the sofa, Jiang's mother finally gave in: "Okay, okay, I'll listen to you for now, but let's make it clear first, if your grades are still not good during the mock exam, you'll have to listen to your dad and me and find a tutor to give you one-on-one tutoring, understand?"

Seeing that things were looking promising, Jiang Zao immediately imitated his father and saluted: "Yes, sir! Mission accomplished!!"

Jiang's mother smiled and poked Jiang Zao's little face: "Alright, you're always being cheeky."

After reaching a consensus, Mr. and Mrs. Jiang changed into their pajamas and prepared to take a shower. They were covered in sweat from winning the lottery, and to this day, they still felt like they were dreaming, it was unbelievable.

Jiang Zao also took the opportunity to put one beauty pill and one body shaping pill into each of her parents' and her own water glasses.

Beauty pills and body-shaping pills dissolve instantly in water.

Jiang Zao brought her nose close to the rim of the cup and smelled it, but there was no smell at all.

Jiang Zao nodded in relief.

Suddenly remembering her mother vomiting blood, Jiang Zao asked Xiao Qi with a trembling heart,

"Seventh Master, will these beauty pills and body shaping pills also cause me to cough up blood like my mother did?"

If that's the case, she'll have to consider whether her parents should eat it, since the whole family collectively vomiting blood is quite frightening.

System Xiaoqi: "No, host. These pills eliminate toxins from the body through daily excretion, so don't worry. It just makes your poop smell a little bad."

Jiang Zao understood: "But why would it be toxins? Aren't these beauty pills and figure pills?"

The system patiently explained: "It's like this, your human body has various toxins that cannot be excreted by your own body. This causes these toxins to circulate in the blood, such as acne and blemishes. These are all formed by the accumulation of toxins in the body."

Jiang Zaodong said, "I understand. I have one last question."

The system, Xiaoqi, replied coolly, "Speak."

Jiang Zao: "We ate this, but it suddenly changed, didn't it?"

System Xiaoqi: "No, host, the effects of these two pills are relatively slow. They will gradually make you more attractive, rather than changing you all at once. They won't make you a completely different person, but rather refine your appearance, making your skin better and your features more delicate."

Jiang Zao praised Xiao Qi again: "Xiao Qiqi, you're so amazing! How could I live without you?!"

Xiao Qi pouted haughtily, "Alright, alright, host, I'm not talking to you anymore, I haven't finished watching my TV series yet!"
