Chapter 15: Drew a Hundred Times

Su Xi came to the living room, preparing to help Yang Zhichun walk out.

"Just leave the house to my sister-in-law; I've already told the butler not to let anyone else into the manor."

Su Yu walked up to her mother, "Mom, no matter who comes looking for you, you must not go out! It's dangerous outside!"

Ji Yan heard this and laughed.

Previously she used to say to her daughter, "No matter who knocks, you must not open the door; it's dangerous outside," now it's the daughter saying it to her.

Su Yu saw Ji Yan laugh, scrunched her little face, and worried.

{"Mom is now a hot potato; those who want to curry favor with her, threaten her, or deceive her are probably many. My mother is so innocent; if she gets tricked out, what should I do? The manor forbids outsiders from entering, but Mother can go out!"}

"Okay! I'll stay here with your dad, not going out."

Su Yu nodded vigorously, "Mm-hmm! Really don't go out; even if your grandparents come, you must not go out! Even if your great-grandmother comes, you must not go out!"

{"My great-grandmother is already dead, yet my mother's nominal parents' family still uses her name to ask Mother for money. This time I can't guarantee they won't again use her name to deceive Mother."

I remember the plot mentioning that the cash flow comes every three months. Last time I blacklisted their numbers, so when it was time to ask for money, they shouldn't know. But once they see the gossip news about Mother and her uncle, they definitely won't give up squeezing Mother. They might contact the media, or even come here to trick Mother out and ask her for money.

Wait, I already sent my cheap uncle to prison, why is there no news from Mother's side? They should be asking Mother for help! Even if they don't remember Mother's phone number, they'd cause a scene at the company and media! }

Su Yu came to her senses, looking at the quiet but not-so-good-looking adults.

{"Something's off, very off—why isn't anyone speaking?"}

Su Xi looked at Ji Yan's pained expression, "Sister-in-law, are you really okay?"

Su Yu turned her head to look at Ji Yan. Her expression indeed didn't look fine.

"Mom?"

"Xiao Yu, Mom doesn't know how to tell you!"

When Su Yu's inner voice mentioned her great-grandmother, Ji Yan's face showed pain. Hearing Su Yu doubt them, she used her MV acting skills plus genuine emotion, appearing unable to speak, tears flowing before she could say anything.

"Mom, don't cry!"

Su Yu pulled out a tissue to wipe Mom's tears.

Su Xi and Yang Zhichun sat on the sofa, reflecting on their recent behavior. They'd been too relaxed at home. From now on, in front of Su Yu, they still need to put on their business-world act, can't let her discover they can hear her inner voice. If she finds out, this little rascal will definitely hide more things from them.

Ji Yan took a while to compose herself, then found the right emotion and choked out, "Your great-grandmother is already gone!"

"What?"

{"Mom already knew? How did Mom know?"}

Ji Yan instinctively felt the daughter's inner voice was a trap.

She continued, "It was so sudden; Mom gave a lot of money, but your great-grandmother is gone! The doctor clearly said she was cooperating with treatment, her condition would stabilize, and she could definitely live past New Year. If she recovered well, she might even live another ten years! Ten years! Sob sob!"

Saying this, Ji Yan truly hated them. They wanted money, she wasn't unwilling to give. They weren't particularly filial. Back then, while she was giving birth, they took her grandmother away.

"Mom, don't cry! I'll stay with you!"

Su Yu hugged her mother and softly coaxed.

Ji Yan cried for a while, then choked while tidying her daughter's clothes.

"Okay, hurry to the company; Mom wants to talk to your dad. Yesterday Mom hardly spoke to your dad."

Su Yu rubbed against Ji Yan's embrace.

"Mom, bye-bye!"

"Bye-bye!"

Su Yu followed Yang Zhichun and Su Xi out the door.

She deliberately lagged behind Uncle and Great-Grandma, {"Uncle and Chu Han Ya took bed photos."}

The steps of Su Xi and Yang Zhichun ahead didn't change, they walked out steadily.

{"Grandpa didn't die naturally!"}

The two had already reached the door.

Su Xi helped Yang Zhichun into the car, turned to pick up Su Yu. Su Yu didn't refuse, lifted her head and stared straight at Su Xi.

{"The person you like will be forced to death."}

Su Xi's expression unchanged, he settled Su Yu, then got into the passenger seat.

Su Yu still didn't give up, she leaned forward, wanting to keep observing Su Xi's expression.

"Behave!"

Su Xi frowned. Yang Zhichun also pressed her back into the seat, "Fasten your seatbelt when riding! Why are you staring at your uncle for no reason? Does he have flowers on his face?"

Su Yu turned her head to look at Yang Zhichun. Her voice was gentle, she looked kind.

{"Could it really be that I'm too sensitive? I've bound the system, so I shouldn't be heard by anyone, right?"}

Su Yu asked the system inwardly, {"You quickly check, is it your problem?"}

{"Okay."}

{"System self-checking……check complete, system running normally, draw-card system serving you in real time!"}

{"Host, there's no problem!"}

"Maybe I was overthinking."

They changed cars in the manor, then got into the car to the company.

On the way to the company, Su Yu pretended to be sleepy, leaning against the window with eyes closed.

Yang Zhichun was about to reach out to hug her when he heard her inner voice.

{"System, quick, tell me, has the issue of the first recharge requiring one million been resolved?"}

Su Xi also curiously glanced back at Su Yu. He heard it when he knocked on the door; still no result?

{"Host, the first recharge cannot be changed. Why not give up the first-recharge reward? Later, charging ten million also gives one reward."}

{"How much reward for charging ten million?"}

【It's also an opportunity for one hundred draws.】

【Then I'm losing out! Why isn't it one thousand draws?】

【This is the rule; the system can't change it either.】

Su Yu, who usually isn't very lucky when playing games, really hesitated. Losing the first recharge meant losing the opportunity for one hundred draws, which amounts to one million!

【If I recharge ten thousand first and then recharge one million, can I get the first recharge reward of one million?】

Wulongcha said softly, 【Host, haven't you read the rules three times?】

Su Yu was about to grit her teeth and recharge, when suddenly she thought of a problem: 【How am I supposed to explain the deducted money to my family?】

In this world, she's just a three-year-old kid. Would the bank investigate a one-time expenditure of one million? If the call reached her family, how would she explain it?

She had already vaguely explained the TV drama matter, but this money matter can't be vague!

That's one million!

【The deducted fees will be used for charitable causes in various ways. Your family knows about it, so they probably won't pursue it.】

【Charity, you guys are really that kind-hearted?】

【Host, our draw card system is a legitimate system; we earn not money, but merit!】

【Do I get a share too?】

Merit—just hearing it sounds like a good thing; she also wants it.

【Your money has already bought the draw chances.】

Wulongcha still wanted Su Yu to recharge, not wanting to put it so bluntly. It had checked; humans prefer to be tactful. If they hear the blunt truth, they might become angry, and once angry they could develop a rebellious streak. Before the money arrives, we need to coax the little benefactor.

Su Yu opened her eyes and looked at the somewhat fierce but kind uncle and the gentle great-grandmother.

【Recharge! Hope I can draw a card that helps our current situation.】

【Okay!】

Su Yu heard a "beep" sound.

【Host, the recharge was successful! Now you have two hundred draw chances; do you want to draw now?】

Su Yu opened her round, big eyes and looked at the other people in the car. The driver was driving seriously, the uncle was playing on his phone, and the great-grandmother was resting with her eyes closed.

【Project the page onto my lap.】

【Okay!】

Su Yu looked at the buttons for "draw once", "draw ten times", "draw one hundred times", and "draw one thousand times", then pressed "draw one hundred times".

Su Yu's hidden matter: knowing the plot but not speaking it out as her inner voice would.

She never says when she watched the TV drama...
