Chapter 159: Let's See What Was Drawn

【Okay, I'll read them before bed tonight!】

The Puppet Card consumed a lot but was quite effective. Not only did it resolve Feng Yuanyuan's problem, it also took care of the Yin family.

If using the Lucky Card meant drawing cards with good effects like these, next time she would use the Lucky Card first before continuing to draw.

Su Yu followed her daily routine—ate dinner, watched TV, took a bath, and obediently lay in bed looking at the cards.

This time she drew: 【Hostility Card: 1】, 【Vomiting Card: 1】, 【Swap Card: 1】, 【Logic Card: 1】, 【Renewal Card: 1】, 【Wish Card: 1】, 【Truth Card: 3】, 【Puppet Card: 1】.

Last time she had used up all her Truth Cards and Puppet Cards. Of the remaining cards, she first opened the Wish Card.

Wish Card: Can fulfill one wish of the wisher. Effect is random and may fail. The simpler the wish, the easier it is to grant! Uses: 1

【Wulongcha, if I use the Wish Card to wish for my dad to wake up, would that count as simple or difficult? Can it succeed?】

Wulongcha guessed it should be difficult. 【Host, Su Yi never appeared in the plot, so he probably never woke up. If you use the Wish Card to make the wish, it may fail. Of course, it might also have some effect. It's a matter of probability—I don't recommend the Host gamble on it.】

In Wulongcha's view, wishing for Chu Han Ya to end up in prison was more reliable than wishing for Su Yi to wake up.

【But Mom misses him so much!】

Ji Yan had been acting strangely lately—Su Yu felt she was growing increasingly anxious. Su Yu had spoken to her great-grandmother about it, and her great-grandmother arranged a psychologist for Ji Yan, but the results weren't very good.

When Su Yu went to visit Su Yi in the morning and evening, she could always see traces that Ji Yan had been there. Su Yu wondered—was Ji Yan's anxiety because her useless father just wouldn't wake up?

【The Host can use the Lucky Card next month to draw a suitable card for Su Yi. Save this Wish Card for later. Using it now carries too high a chance of failure.】

Wulongcha calculated—the plan it proposed was the optimal solution for Su Yu at present. It wasn't her fault she had no money! If she had money and wanted to throw ten thousand Wish Cards at it, Wulongcha would have no objection.

【He may be useless, but Mom likes him, so what can I do? If it fails, it fails—I have to at least try!】

Su Yu clicked to use the Wish Card and wished for Su Yi to wake up!

The Wish Card dissolved into points of light and vanished in Su Yu's consciousness.

【Wulongcha, did it succeed or fail?】

【Wait a moment, let me go check on Su Yi's condition.】

Ji Yan fought hard to contain her excitement, waiting for her daughter's inner voice to tell her the answer.

Wulongcha saw the situation below and quickly drifted back to Su Yu's room. 【Host, the good news is the Wish Card worked. The bad news is he still hasn't woken up!】

【It worked but he didn't wake up? Is the Wish Card too useless or is he too useless? And also, what exactly did the Wish Card accomplish?】

【Unknown for now. The Wish Card didn't give feedback. The Doctor down there is still checking. I'll go look into it tomorrow.】

【Okay, let's look at the other cards. These names are pretty interesting.】

Hostility Card: Can detect the hostility of any living creature within a hundred meters. The user selects a target to attack, and can only attack once. The larger the hostility number, the greater that creature's hostility toward the user. A negative number means the creature has no hostility toward the user. The smaller the number, the less the hostility.

Vomiting Card: When you've eaten something you shouldn't have, you'll need this to help you out! (Effective for ten minutes)

Swap Card: Consciousnesses can be briefly swapped, allowing you to control the target you wish to control. Swap duration is one minute.

Logic Card: Are you still worrying about not being able to understand others' logic? Are you still troubled by not being able to guess your enemy's thoughts? The Logic Card can help you understand what someone else thinks about a certain matter. Uses: 1

Renewal Card: Cleans stains on your body (can only remove physical stains; ineffective against mental contamination). Uses: 1

【Wulongcha, the Swap Card and the Logic Card don't seem very different?】

【Host, the difference is huge. Swapping means you become them and they become you. In other systems' records, someone used batches of Swap Cards to make the emperor wipe out her entire family—three branches of kinship—leaving only herself. She was imprisoned.】

【She swapped herself with the emperor?】

【Yes!】

【Was she courting death or did she have a grudge against her family, issuing that order herself?】

【In the system records, every member of her family was wicked and held high status—they were the empress dowager's maternal clan. She was a child kept like a dog in the back courtyard, not even getting enough to eat. The only reason she wasn't beaten to death was that the money her birth mother left her required her, as the person involved, to still be alive to go through the formalities. The money that belonged to her flowed like running water into other people's pockets through various means. She could only go all-in and use this method to break the deadlock.】

Wulongcha felt that the emperor was the truly pitiful one. In their system's records, the Host swapped into the emperor's body, and since the money belonging to the Host's original body was gone, the one being beaten was the emperor, now trapped in the Host's body.

And he was a good emperor, too!

【So tragic!】

Su Yu's consciousness returned to the cards. 【The Hostility Card is very useful. The Swap Card isn't much use to me. Overall, not bad. Next time I can try using the Lucky Card and see if I can draw a card that makes Dad wake up.】

【Wulongcha, if I use the Lucky Card on myself and draw a hundred times, would I also get this many non-duplicate cards?】

【Based on other systems' records, no. Even drawing ten times, the Host can get duplicate Truth Cards—please choose carefully!】

Wulongcha was worried that Su Yu would take all the money invested in project operations and spend it on drawing cards.

That absolutely wouldn't do!

A million spent on drawing would only get cards. Even if she drew a Lucky Card, it would be useless—the Host couldn't convert it into money. But put into the project, what the Host could gain would be far more than a million. If she spent it all, then relying on her meager pocket money to draw cards, the two of them would be waiting until the end of time!

【Fine, let's sleep!】

Su Yu rolled over and gradually fell asleep.

Su Yu woke up, ate breakfast, and didn't see her uncle. She wandered over to Su Yi's hospital room, still muttering in her heart.

【I've said good morning to Dad—do I just get in the car right after? Uncle isn't even awake yet!】

"Good morning, Daddy!"

【Wulongcha, did you find out about my dad's condition?】

【I checked. He can hear sounds from the outside and can give some responses, but he just won't wake up!】

【Ah, then Mom must be really happy! From now on, when she talks, Dad can respond. Does Mom know?】

【She knows. The Doctor came to find them last night. Your uncle isn't awake—probably too excited!】

【Then the money was well spent! From now on I can only call him useless in my heart—I can't say it to his face. What a pity!】

Su Yi:???

Su Yi's hand moved, wanting to remind his unfilial daughter that he could hear. Alas, the patter of his unfilial daughter's footsteps went "da-da-da"—she had clearly left!

"Uncle Butler, where's the car we take to work?"

Su Yu and Su Xi drove a customized Maybach to work. The car in front of them was a Rolls-Royce.

Thanks for the votes, darlings~
