The Preciousness of the Fate Gear

Even Yu Xunge was used to it, let alone Yi Qiuguo and Yu Qingshan. Yu Qingshan would always bring out some recently bought wine, claiming it was a good vintage his uncle had been saving. "Since you're Xunhuan's friend, I'll treat you like a son. Come, let's have a drink, the three of us!"

He didn't even bother to switch glasses or lines.

When they arrived at the private room, it was indeed Ye Dong, whom Yu Xunge had met once in B City not long ago.

However, the man looked haggard, as if he was about to shatter.

Although his eyes lit up upon seeing Yu Xunge, they quickly dimmed again. He had been incredibly unlucky lately, never winning a game. Even when they had a clear advantage, they would lose due to various accidents. The scandal about him deceiving his fans had also blown up, and people he had offended in B City had come looking for him. Even if he stayed home doing nothing, he would choke on his food...

After everyone was seated, Yu Xunhuan seemed more anxious than Ye Dong, the person directly involved. He immediately took out a small gold brick weighing 5 jin and handed it to Yu Xunge. "Sister, please help my friend. He's been extremely unlucky lately."

Yu Xunge didn't refuse. She was worried Yu Xunhuan would use this as an excuse to get rid of her, so she didn't even give him a chance to pull back. If she said no, he would take back the gold brick. Dodging Yi Qiuguo's frequent elbow jabs, Yu Xunge directly accepted the gold brick and then used her skill on Ye Dong.

How could someone who associated with the male lead have low luck?

Yu Xunge understood as soon as she thought about it. He probably ate the food Yu Xunhuan made and hadn't paid for it yet.

Other people's free meals were about not paying after eating. Yu Xunhuan's free meals were about him secretly cooking for you, fearing you would pay!

The reason he was paying her to modify Ye Dong's luck was a sweetener he was giving Ye Dong, a gesture of support in his time of need, to make Ye Dong trust and be grateful to him even more.

Tsk, he had used this trick on her in her past life.

But seeing Yu Xunhuan scheme against the brother who was like family in her past life, Yu Xunge felt that coming today was the right decision. She might even eat two more bowls of rice.

Yu Xunge decisively increased Ye Dong's luck to 10, letting him fully experience the charm of "So Happy Now." Judging by Yu Xunhuan's demeanor, Ye Dong would likely become a regular customer for her business.

In the future, even if the Game Invasion happened, she would still rely on this skill to make money.

Would she need "So Happy Now" when opening treasure chests after defeating bosses?

Even though Yu Xunhuan, Yu Xunge, and even Su Yitong had maxed-out luck, two of them were the male and female leads, and the other had only increased her luck from 8 to 10 through acquired development.

Most ordinary people had a luck of 5. Yu Xunge had modified the luck of so many people recently and had also viewed the information of many people through the Soros Pocket Watch. Even many successful figures she had only seen on TV had a luck of only 7. Of course, this was understandable. After all, those who reached the pinnacle relied on their intellect, family background, emotional intelligence, and hard work. Luck was merely the icing on the cake.

But when it came to opening treasure chests in games, it had nothing to do with brains, background, or appearance. It purely depended on luck.

In her past life, the Liang family had kept Liang Hui's God-Bestowed Talent a complete secret, possibly even preparing items to hide his God-Bestowed Talent, which was why no one had investigated it.

Even she had heard that the Liang family had a high chance of getting good items after each dungeon run, unlike other families. Even the Su family only had Su Yitong getting good items when opening chests. Once a dungeon started, outsiders couldn't enter, and they couldn't have the young lady run over to open chests after the dungeon was finished.

The Liang family, with their exceptionally high chest-opening rate, had developed to be only slightly behind the Su family, and no one knew why.

It was only after Liang Hui had frequently used the "Fate Gear" skill on her that Yu Xunge, based on her own experiences, deduced the effect of his God-Bestowed Talent skill. Finally, when Liang Hui caught her, she asked him for confirmation. Seeing that his God-Bestowed Talent had been guessed by her with about 80% accuracy, he admitted it. After all, this person was going to die soon anyway.

Thinking about it, the young lady of the Liang family had paid a heavy price to capture her, only to be intercepted by the Su family in the end.

Yu Xunge had already decided to use this God-Bestowed skill to benefit the players in S City! As long as this skill was managed well, she could earn money four times a day. Successful people didn't work late into the night, but players would stay up late playing games!

She still needed to think about the pricing standards. It couldn't be as cheap as it was now, but it also couldn't be too excessive, or it would attract envy and make her a target.

Yu Xunge was lost in thought throughout the meal, refining her "Fate Gear" money-making plan in her mind.

At the dinner table, Yu Xunge's attitude towards Ye Dong was very cold, but Ye Dong didn't dare to say much. After all, although he hadn't felt the charm of Luck 10 yet, Yu Xunge was also a player, and it was uncertain if he would need her God-Bestowed Talent in the future. He would endure any dissatisfaction, merely grumbling in his heart that this woman wasn't sensible enough.

Yu Xunge didn't care about Ye Dong's thoughts. She wanted to develop Ye Dong into a client, but this business was Ye Dong seeking her out, not the other way around. She wasn't lacking clients.

Yu Xunhuan certainly didn't see any problem with Yu Xunge's attitude. Wasn't this better? Yu Xunge's attitude would highlight how good a brother he was to Ye Dong.

It was already very late when she got home, but Yu Xunge still spent another hour busy feeding the cats in the backyard.

The weather had turned colder, and more and more cats were appearing in the backyard. She had a custom-made pet villa placed in the backyard, and put the cat beds inside. The floor of the wooden house was also covered with heating pads. With so many cats, since they were here, she couldn't just let the strong ones sleep in the cozy spots while the weak ones shivered outside.

The faucet in the backyard had also been replaced with a sensor type, which would dispense water whenever a cat passed by.

Other than that, she really couldn't do anything more.

Yu Xunge crouched by the floor-to-ceiling window between the backyard and the villa, shaking her finger at a calico cat outside that was persistently tapping the window with its paw pads, wanting to come in. "Don't even think about it."

—"Meow~"

"Impossible."

She got up and left coldly.

These past few days, Yu Xunge had been busy decorating the cat backyard. She bought some cat toys and cat trees, and installed a retractable canopy above. It could block the rain on rainy days and wouldn't affect the cats sunbathing on sunny days.

She attributed her actions to her concern that the cat beds might not mutate, which was why she was so enthusiastically proactive, not because she was conquered by cats.

While busy, she was contemplating the pricing of "Fate Gear" after the Game Invasion. The more she thought about it, the more she felt her paranoia was acting up again. The more she thought about the "Fate Gear" skill, the more she felt its danger level was not much different from "Impersonate."

It was not without reason that a God-Bestowed Talent that could only change luck values and swap attribute items of others was rated B.
