The abandoned daughter of a wealthy family turns out to be a lucky charm, changing the fate of her e
Chapter 28 Pshaw! A family of nouveau riche
But soon, Lu Weiwei's words dispelled her idea.
"How come I keep running into you guys everywhere? What bad luck... Third Brother, should we go home?"
Shen Zhiwei raised an eyebrow almost imperceptibly.
If Lu Weiwei were also reborn, she would have seized the opportunity to show herself in front of that person, instead of wanting to leave as soon as she saw her.
After all, the reborn Lu Weiwei should have some understanding of her lucky attribute.
—As long as she appears, all opportunities will belong to her.
The Lu family won't even get half of it!
Lu Yuze snorted coldly: "Little sister, don't bother with them. Mom and Dad said that something terrible has happened to the Shen family company. They'll soon go bankrupt and become penniless! They might not even have the chance to come to this arcade again."
Lu Weiwei smiled smugly: "Who told the Shen family to be such unlucky people?"
Shen Xingye did notice that his parents had been spending more and more time away from home for work these past two days, but they were smiling more often than before.
Shi Yue was in the mood to get her nails done, her hair styled, and her skin treated; she didn't look like she was about to go bankrupt at all.
Yesterday, his father gave his mother a necklace that is said to cost one million.
Although he was impulsive, he wasn't stupid and wouldn't believe Lu Yuze just because of a few words.
He doesn't believe his family could go bankrupt!
"Shenjin, only nouveau riche talk about money all the time."
In terms of foundation, the Shen family is more established than the Lu family.
The Lu family only suddenly became wealthy through land expropriation during the generation of Old Master Lu, and it was only with Lu Zhenhua that they caught the wave and gained momentum.
However, the Lu family was indeed lucky and gradually gained momentum to overtake the Shen family.
Lu Yuze hated it most when people called him the son of a nouveau riche, and he shouted:
"If you don't care about money at all, give me back my 2000 yuan allowance!"
God knows how miserable he was last week when he had no money. He was able to come to the arcade today with Lu Weiwei's money.
"Why should I? I won the money, so you'd better win it back."
Shen Xingye gave him a cheeky grin and made a face.
Lu Yuze was so angry that he kept pulling at his hair. Out of the corner of his eye, he caught sight of a machine and his eyes lit up.
"Shen Xingye, how about we have a video game competition? If I win, you have to pay me back!"
Shen Xingye glanced at the game and rolled his eyes.
This game is called "Speed Duel," and it requires not only skill but also luck.
Shen Xingye is not afraid of a contest of skill alone, but if luck is added to the mix, he will definitely lose!
All things considered, this competition offers him no benefit whatsoever, so why should he participate?
Shen Xingye was about to refuse when he saw Shen Zhi nod at him.
"Brother, let's compete against him!"
Shen Zhi could already sense that Zhou Ye, the e-sports god from her previous life, was nearby. She was just worried that she wouldn't have a chance to show him that her third brother's gaming skills were better than Lu Yuze's.
As luck would have it, someone brought her a pillow just as she was dozing off.
How can we seize the opportunity from others if we don't defeat Lu Yuze?
Shen Xingye initially didn't care, but since Zhizhi wanted him to compete, he would listen to her.
"Okay, what should we compete in?"
Lu Yuze is still young and can't shake his habit of showing off.
He crossed his arms and proudly introduced:
"Do you know who my teacher is? You're doomed to lose to me!"
"You need a teacher to play games? Lu Yuze, your skill level is truly eye-opening." Shen Xingye relentlessly mocked the other party.
Seeing that he didn't follow his lead and ask who his teacher was, Lu Yuze hesitated for a long time before finally shouting out:
"My teacher is Zhou Ye! Ye Shen! Aren't you envious?"
Upon hearing this, Shen Xingye was indeed stunned for a few seconds.
His idol is Ye Shen.
"Ye Shen? Take you in? You've got something on him?" Shen Xingye knew Lu Yuze's gaming skills; he was far inferior to him.
How could Ye Shen possibly accept him as a disciple!
Lu Yuze sensed the envy in Shen Xingye's words and raised his chin, saying, "That's because I'm amazing!"
Shen Xingye might not say it, but it would be a lie to say he wasn't envious.
Ahhhhh! Ye Shen!
Why?! Why should Ye Shen want him instead of himself?!
He'd heard that getting into the Ye Shen Club was very difficult; he'd asked his dad to inquire, and this time there was only one spot left…
Shen Zhi looked at the game controller that Shen Xingye was about to bend, placed her small hand on the back of his hand, and whispered to comfort him:
"Third brother is the best, we can definitely win the game!"
"Yes, Zhizhi, you're right. Our most important task right now is to prevent him from taking that 2000 yuan back!"
"Yes! Zhizhi believes in her brother!"
However, Shen Xingye was still somewhat hesitant when he saw the random items in "Speed Battle".
Shen Zhi noticed and asked, "Third brother, what's wrong? Is there a problem with this game?"
Shen Xingye secretly pulled Shen Zhi aside and asked:
"Little Gardenia, you won't blame me if Third Brother loses, will you?"
"The competition hasn't even started yet, Third Brother, you might not necessarily lose."
Seeing Shen Zhi's bewildered expression, Shen Xingye patiently explained:
"This game does require skill from the player, but there is also a certain element of luck involved."
It randomly drops items—red ones fully charge the special attack energy of the character you control; yellow ones double your attack power for 10 seconds; green ones restore health or defense; but if you draw a blue one, the special attack energy is reduced by half!
Shen Xingye looked dejected:
"The reason your third brother is called the King of Misfortune is because when he plays this game, nine out of ten items are blue, and the other one is green."
Shen Xingye is almost developing PTSD from this game.
So you were worried about luck... Shen Zhi chuckled and shook the game coins in her hand:
"Third brother, didn't you just say that Zhizhi is a little lucky star?"
"Just focus on showing off your skills, and leave the luck to Zhizhi!"
Seeing that Shen Xingye was scared, Lu Yuze's smile widened even more, as if he could already see his 2000 yuan returning to him:
"Have you two made up your minds yet? You're dawdling like old ladies, so slow!"
"Let's compete then! Who's afraid of you!"
The two sat down in front of the e-sports game machine, where a game required 10 game coins.
Lu Weiwei and Shen Zhi stood behind the two of them respectively.
Lu Weiwei: "Go, Third Brother! I said you'd win, and you definitely will!"
Lu Weiwei firmly believed that she was the beloved female lead of the entire book.
She helped her older brother get into the finals of the physics competition.
I just helped Third Brother save the members of Zhou Ye's club, which is how I got their verbal promise to have a chance to join the club.
If it weren't for her, how could they have had so much good luck?
Shen Zhi, in her sweet, childlike voice, cheered Shen Xingye on, her little hand touching the jade gourd on her chest, silently chanting in her heart:
[Jade gourd, a good gourd, good fortune and good things come from all directions!]
As soon as he finished speaking, strands of golden light accumulated inside the jade gourd surged toward Shen Xingye.
The four kids didn't notice that a man wearing a black baseball cap was standing on the second floor of the arcade looking down, and he had a clear view of their actions.
This person is none other than the real Zhou Ye!
Lu Yuze was determined to defeat Shen Xingye. In the first game, his offensive was quite swift. Fortunately, Shen Xingye was agile and dodged Lu Yuze's attacks with a series of backflips.
But soon, a random item dropped in the area where Lu Yuze was located.
Upon opening, the screen flashed red for a few seconds.
My special moves are all used up!
Shen Xingye had a bad feeling. In the less than half a second that the screen flickered, he quickly controlled his character to escape.
He also found a prop box during his escape.
"No..." Shen Zhi's words of protest were cut short as she saw the blue light.
The energy bar for special moves is reduced by half.
Shen Zhi covered her face, unable to bear the sight; her third brother's bad luck was indeed quite remarkable.
Fortunately, it was just the beginning, so the losses weren't too great.
Lu Yuze smirked smugly, relentlessly pursuing the little figure controlled by Shen Xingye:
"Prepare to die!"
