“Are Lu Chang and the others already here?” Shen You glanced outside.
“They’ve just arrived!” Xie Xiao nodded and suddenly thought of something. “Something big! Huo Xiao is here, too!”
“What?” Shen You’s eyes widened. “How did he come here?”
“I don’t know...” Xie Xiao shook his head and thought for a moment. “He was probably dragged here by Zhu Ge!”
Shen You did not believe this.
Huo Xiao and Zhu Ge were not close enough to go to a coffee shop together, not to mention that Huo Xiao had mysophobia!
“Why don’t you go out and take a look after you’re done!” Xie Xiao’s expression then became a little disdainful. “Zhu Ge has been clamoring to meet his idol!”
“You and Zhu Ge...” Shen You asked the question in her heart, “Something’s not right?”
Xie Xiao wrinkled her nose and said, “I don’t know. I feel uncomfortable just looking at him!”
Shen You replied, “Oh!” and did not say anything else.
Shen You prepared the small cake and walked out of the kitchen with Xie Xiao.
Zhu Ge’s gaze swept across the kitchen from time to time. When he saw Shen You coming out, he rushed over.
Huo Xiao also looked in the direction of the kitchen and saw that it was indeed Shen You and the others coming out.
“Idol, I’m here to report for duty!” Zhu Ge stood up straight like a recruit waiting for his superior to inspect him.
Shen You smiled and said, “Welcome!”
Zhu Ge looked at Shen You up and down. “How are you? Are You in a better mood now?”
Shen You smiled gratefully. “Much better!”
Zhu Ge patted his chest. “If you’re unhappy in the future, just let me know. I’ll help you solve it!”
Xie Xiao could not take it anymore and grunted, “What the hell can you solve!”
“I can’t solve hell, but I can solve people!” Zhu Ge said with a face full of sincerity.
Xie Xiao felt irritated and was at a loss for words, not knowing what to say.
Shen You looked at Huo Xiao, who was sitting alone on the sofa. He looked a little pitiful.
She walked up and greeted Huo Xiao, “Young master Huo, what a surprise!”
Huo Xiao was a little annoyed by Shen You acting as if nothing had happened.
He glanced at Shen You and said, “Zhu Ge dragged me here.”
Shen You replied, “Oh, then you have a seat, I still have things to do.”
Shen You said and turned around to leave.
Huo Xiao’s mind was suddenly filled with anger. Didn’t you say that you were going to cling onto me?
What kind of attitude was this now?
Huo Xiao’s anger instantly caused Shen You to feel a strong surge of luck value.
She stood rooted to the ground in surprise.
When Huo Xiao saw that Shen You had stopped moving, he thought that she had noticed something, so he quickly averted his gaze.
Shen You stood rooted to the ground, feeling the abundant luck value.
Soon, the system appeared in her mind. “After your hard work over this period of time, you have completed the task of injecting a bead.”
“Next, you can choose to exchange for the following benefits...” The system’s voice sounded very cheerful.
“First, beauty like a flower; second, intelligence beyond human; third, a heartthrob!” The more the system spoke, the more excited it became.
Shen You frowned and thought for a while. “What I need most at the moment is intelligence beyond human! I must win the competition!”
“What beauty and charm? They are just skin and bones!” Shen You said firmly.
“Expert!” The system sounded very impressed.
“I will exchange for your intelligence soon!” The system let out a ‘ding’ and added, “Due to your lack of luck value, your intelligence will be valid for three days.”
“What?” Shen You shouted angrily in her heart.
“I don’t want this anymore!” Shen you yelled at the system in dissatisfaction.
“Goods sold are not for return or exchangeable!” The system’s voice sounded like it was business.
“You’re buying and selling by force!” Shen You shouted in dissatisfaction.
“People have to pay for their own choices!” The system said earnestly.
“As you’ve already accumulated one bead of luck value, your life can be extended by one year.” The system once again sent out a warm notification.
“Only one year? What’s the use!” Shen You shouted unhappily.
“The first bead is just the basic model.” The system explained again, “The more beads you accumulate, the higher the level, the longer your life can be extended!”
“Good luck, dear!” The system’s voice gradually faded away.
Shen You silently let out a long breath, “Alright! It’s better than nothing.”
Huo Xiao was about to step forward to see what had happened to Shen You. He wanted to know why she was standing there, beating her chest and stomping her feet, and then getting excited.
Shen You came back to her senses and was about to walk towards Lu Chang’s study group.
“Sis!” Shen Rong pushed open the coffee shop door. “I know you’re here!”
Shen You looked at Shen Rong. “Why are you here?”
“Mom wants you to go home for dinner!” Shen Rong said.
Shen You was about to reject...
“And.... talk about your marriage!” Shen Rong added.
