The profile picture was a calm and serene lotus, paired with the nickname \"Heart Like Still Water.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hu Jun eagerly said, \"Mom, she’s a really nice person. You should chat with her, maybe you two have common interests.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mrs. Hu hesitated for a few seconds: \"Son, I’m afraid.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hu Jun frowned, \"You’re my mom, what is there to be afraid of? She should be the one who’s afraid!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mrs. Hu finally voiced her concern: \"Looking at this profile picture, I’m worried she might be my classmate.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hu Jun was nonchalant: \"Mom, even if she’s your classmate, it doesn’t matter. You both can talk about your own things, you call her an old classmate, and she’ll call you mom.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mrs. Hu fell silent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Guo Kunnan didn’t see Hu Jun’s chat record with his family; the more he looked at Hu Jun’s down jacket, the cooler it seemed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Brother Jun, I don’t understand.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Whenever I chat with a girl, after a while, her shoes are gone, her phone’s broken, her birthday’s coming up, it’s like I’m the one who left her with nothing.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hu Jun pointed out, \"Brother Nan, you can’t always pretend to be a gentleman. When you’re like me, by the time the chat’s over, her clothes are gone.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Guo Kunnan understood, but didn’t really understand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>During the street tour, Guo Kunnan posted on QQ Space, sharing the lively scene of their group.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Class 8 classmates were always active. Yu Wen liked and commented: \"You guys are at National Purchase Square, right? I’m nearby too!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Guo Kunnan: \"Too bad you came late.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yu Wen didn’t mind; even if she’d arrived earlier, she would absolutely not look for them, as she was currently on a date with her dear class leader.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dong Qingfeng and Meng Zi Yun walked to the fork in the road and took a taxi home, while Guo Kunnan’s group headed towards the internet café.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only Jiang Ning and the other two were left.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing all the classmates leave, Tongtong finally relaxed. Back to her home ground!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the way to find an electric scooter, Tongtong spotted a scratch-and-win lottery shop. She glanced over, her eyes fixed...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Chuchu, do you want to play an exciting and novel game? I can take you to play.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xue Chuchu replied instantly: \"I don’t play games with a gambling nature, like scratch-offs.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xue Yuantong, having her intentions revealed, tried to cover up: \"I didn’t mean that. Why do you always think I’m so foolish?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xue Chuchu said nothing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A few seconds later, Xue Yuantong pouted: \"Why don’t you play?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xue Chuchu: \"Because I don’t have money.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Ning looked at her, thinking, girl, you come out with me without bringing any money? Planning to dine and dash, huh.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He stopped and said, \"It’s been a while since I played scratch-and-win; I’m itching for it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xue Yuantong’s face immediately brightened; she could finally earn back the lost Gold Coins today!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Chuchu, later we can eat candied hawthorn while scratching cards—the joy will be doubled!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xue Chuchu sighed gently but couldn’t stop them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before the holidays, the teacher had talked to their class about the dangers of gambling, mentioning how it could make a rich boss in his thirties lose everything and eventually jump off a building.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As soon as they entered the store, a warm breeze greeted them, instantly melting the snowflakes on their bodies.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hey, Jiang Ning!\" A surprised voice from Jiang Yanan came.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not only Jiang Yanan was there, but also Lu Qiqi, Yu Wen, and the former class monitor Huang Zhongfei sitting on a high stool.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Everyone’s here.\" Jiang Ning greeted them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As he spoke, he handed the candied hawthorns in his hand to the four of them, exactly four sticks.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xue Yuantong was stunned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Wow, thank you!\" Jiang Yanan’s smile was especially bright. Unfortunately, she had single eyelids and slightly small eyes; otherwise, she would definitely be a great beauty. Meng Gui wouldn’t change his affections and probably is still making an enemy of Cui Yu.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Ning used Divine Sense to scan the scratch-off ticket and said, \"You two take a couple of tickets, I’m treating, I’ve got it covered.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xue Chuchu quickly declined, \"Not for me.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xue Yuantong hooked Chuchu’s arm, \"What are you afraid of!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yu Wen was originally scratching a ticket when she saw the two girls wanting to pick scratch-off tickets.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She received strawberry candied haws, and the heart is made of flesh, so Yu Wen began to reciprocate.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She walked over to them and whispered, \"Let me teach you a trick. You know scratch-off tickets have a minimum guaranteed payout, right? A book of $600 scratch-off tickets will at least give $260 back. Don’t act yet. Wait until others start scratching, and if the first half doesn’t win anything, then choose from the remaining ones. The odds of winning are bigger.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Some lottery shop owners operate like this; they have records of how much each book has paid out, precisely controlling the payouts, and then buy the remaining tickets themselves.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xue Yuantong, hearing this insider information, immediately put on a serious face and said, \"Yu Wen, thank you!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After Yu Wen shared the trick, Xue Yuantong wasn’t in a hurry to scratch. She casually bought a $10 ticket and then observed the other customers buying scratch-offs with her dark, twinkling eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If not for her cute face, the shop owner might have thought there was a thief in the store.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xue Chuchu was extremely embarrassed and couldn’t help but glance at Jiang Ning, as if to say, ’Aren’t you going to stop her?’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Ning didn’t mind, as Tongtong didn’t feel embarrassed, so he wasn’t concerned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After waiting about fifteen minutes, Tongtong went all in, buying three tickets from a book that hadn’t won anything yet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She slowly scratched the tickets with a beer opener, but suddenly heard a scream from the side.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yu Wen was incredibly excited: \"I won, I won!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As soon as she spoke, everyone’s eyes in the store turned to look.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After the intense joy, Yu Wen quickly contained her excitement, though her flushed face betrayed her feelings.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Yanan and Lu Qiqi exchanged shocked glances. Especially Lu Qiqi, who felt incredibly conflicted and was in turmoil.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The rule of the scratch-off ticket Yu Wen bought was that if the number scratched was similar to the winning number, you get the prize under the corresponding number, and Yu Wen’s ticket had a prize of 300,000...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>300,000! Lu Qiqi’s face went stiff. The profit from her usual antics to catch big spenders was far from this number. If she had 300,000, she couldn’t imagine how happy she would be!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yu Wen’s hand holding the scratch-off was shaking. Seeing this, Huang Zhongfei came to inquire about the situation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Facing her beloved class leader, Yu Wen naturally didn’t hide anything: \"Class leader, see this number is 15, and the one I scratched is also 15. Look at the prize amount.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yu Wen’s hands were shaking so much, Huang Zhongfei, dazed, saw the identical numbers and a long string of prize amounts below.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Huang Zhongfei, being worldly-wise, kept calm: \"Don’t rush, keep your ticket safe. The lottery center is closed for the day. Go claim your prize tomorrow.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yu Wen kept her joy at bay, shivering as she stuffed the ticket into her coat pocket and carefully zipped it up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She then walked outside, with Huang Zhongfei supporting her out of the lottery store.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xue Yuantong, dumbfounded: \"Aren’t you moving like an old lady?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yu Wen, just outside the shop, patted her pocket several times, then suddenly shouted, \"Qiqi has a bag, borrow her bag to hold the ticket!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yu Wen surprisingly broke free from Huang Zhongfei and instinctively rushed back into the lottery store.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In her ecstasy, people tend to do wild actions, and though Yu Wen wasn’t entirely crazy, she was close. She seemed to have forgotten how to walk. After running a few steps, she stumbled and fell onto the shop’s floor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Two customers, about to leave, were startled: \"Sister, are you okay?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yu Wen, lying on the ground, replied, \"I’m fine, you guys go ahead.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two customers said, \"As long as you’re okay, we’re leaving then...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They carefully stepped around her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without waiting for Huang Zhongfei to help, Yu Wen propped herself up on her arms and struggled to stand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Limping, she walked towards Lu Qiqi.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only then did Xue Yuantong notice that she had lost a shoe and quickly reminded, \"Yu Wen, your glass slipper is off!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The next second, Huang Zhongfei bent down to pick it up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Ningle: \"The prince picked up the glass slipper.\"\u003C\u002Fp>",1497,"2026-05-30T14:40:37.854Z","2026-06-01T04:31:29.709Z",1,"novelbin.me","a2a83944f7d41eaccc2c7aacacf21bf8f04e9aa24d2b5a4364f42217b6158c5d","rebirth-slice-of-life-cultivation-chapter-1670","rebirth-slice-of-life-cultivation-chapter-1668",1809,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Frebirth-slice-of-life-cultivation-cover.jpg"]
