Entering Qin Ran's room for the first time, Wu looked around with curiosity and anticipation in her eyes.
She hoped to see certain things.
Yet she also dreaded finding certain things.
When she saw the furnishings, which could not have been simpler, and the mess that filled even this sparsely furnished room, with only a patch near the living area reasonably clean, Wu smiled.
Exactly the same.
The familiar surroundings finally put Wu completely at ease, dispelling her lingering apprehension.
She turned to look at Qin Ran, who stood by the door with his arms folded.
"Shall we trade?"
As she spoke, Wu initiated the trade herself.
Although Wu would have preferred to help Qin Ran for free, after being turned down several times, she had gradually learned how to get along with him.
He did not like owing people favors.
Not even his friends.
But Wu did not dislike that about him.
On the contrary, she greatly admired this side of Qin Ran.
In her eyes, this was how Qin Ran should be. This was right. This matched the person in her memories...
And now, Qin Ran was just as decisive as she remembered.
The moment the trade began, 800,000 points appeared on Qin Ran's side of the trade window.
"Enough?"
Qin Ran asked.
"Yes."
Wu nodded and confirmed the trade.
Looking at the [Lucky Card III] that appeared in his hand, Qin Ran felt no regret over the expense.
Only someone who had truly experienced [Lucky Card III] could understand how important such a single-use entry rank card was.
Reading the note on [Lucky Card III]-"Gain better luck than usual. Even a little is enough to change your fate once"-Qin Ran instinctively thought of the black-and-white world he had entered at the end of [Queen's Shield III].
