Chapter 16: Card Draw Results

~7 min read 1,337 words

After pressing a hundred times, Su Yu, feeling guilty, looked up at the surrounding adults.

Good, none of them paid attention to her, so she kept her head down.

"Let me see, what are they all?"

Su Yu opened them one by one, her expression changing from anticipation to speechlessness.

"System, how many types of cards do you actually have? The duplication rate is that high! Isn't the Host's money still money?!"

Lucky Card: 1, Truth Card: 15, Hair Loss Card: 3, Misfortune Card: 30, Acceleration Card: 5, Butterfly-Attract Card: 3, Sadness Card: 4, Haha Card: 5, Communication Card: 10, Sound-Effect-Loss Card: 10, Nightmare Card: 10, Calm Card: 4.

Su Yu got angry when she saw these cards; Misfortune Card had the highest duplication rate, with 30 copies. Misfortune Cards are useful, but there are too many! She also wanted to unlock other cards quickly and return to her own world sooner.

Su Yu flipped through the rules, "Writing a name also works; what if there are duplicate names?"

"Host, this Misfortune Card was sent by the system. I couldn't have made a mistake."

In a bad mood, Su Yu randomly chose an unlucky person and wrote her name on a Misfortune Card.

"Zheng Dongping, hehe, system, my fake grandmother is called that name, right?"

"Yes, that's correct. She just got off the plane, destination is Su Clan Group."

The system was very proactive. As long as it doesn't harm itself, it can harm anyone else.

"What?! The fake grandmother is back so quickly? Makes sense, Uncle and great‑grandmother both refused to give her and her daughter shares and money; she kept shouting that the Su Family favors sons over daughters. Now that she knows I've obtained the heir position, she must be rushing back to cause trouble."

I'll give her another Misfortune Card!

Her adopted brother's child is demanding Su Family's money, shameless!

Su Yu grew more angry as she thought about it.

"No, I'm still not over it. Let's give Chu Han Ya another Misfortune Card! She's trying to harm my uncle again recently. If I hadn't not known the woman's name from yesterday, I would have surely given her one."

The system, temporarily acting as a lackey, checked and found that the woman was Chu Han Ya; recalling that Su Yu had already used her, it said to Su Yu.

"How about giving another one to Chu Han Ya?"

Su Yu didn't hesitate and added another.

"Hmm, the anger is eased."

"Then, Host, do you want to draw more?"

"I'll stop drawing for now. These hundred cards can still comfort me; they were free. If I draw again and get another bunch of duplicates, I'm afraid I might not be able to help but choke you!"

The system fell silent.

The anger‑eased Su Yu still didn't want to look at those cards. She looked up at the adults, then pressed her face against the car window, watching the scenery outside.

The car hadn't reached Su Clan Group yet, but Su Yu could already see a group of bodyguards blocking a group of reporters from afar.

"No way, still not settled? There are tons of gossip‑worthy stars in the entertainment circle, you could stalk them, why are you all staring at my uncle, a plain guy?"

Su Xi detached from his tangled thoughts and saw that cluster of reporters.

"Close your eyes when we get out of the car; I'll lift you up."

Su Yu nodded vigorously.

"Then who will support great‑grandmother?"

"Great‑grandmother can still walk, don't worry!"

Yang Zhichun patted Su Yu's head. She's not unable to walk, just doesn't want to turn down the junior's sentiment.

The vehicle stopped at the Su Clan entrance; the bodyguards in front and behind the car quickly got out and surrounded the middle car.

Su Xi stepped down from the passenger seat, opened the rear door, and lifted Su Yu out. Su Yu buried her head in Su Xi's arms. She didn't need to look up; just the continuous "click" sounds let her feel the flashlights' power.

"Mr. Su Xi, will you marry Miss Ji Yan?"

"Announcing Su Yu as heir, are you and Miss Ji Yan not planning to have a second child?"

"Mr. Su Xi, Su Yu is only three years old; do you already assume she can bear the Su Clan's responsibilities in the future?"

……

The reporters hurled the pre‑memorized questions one by one, regardless of whether Su Xi answered, they could still use the questions to drive traffic later.

While the reporters' cameras frantically chased Su Xi and Su Yu, a bodyguard opened the door for Yang Zhichun. After stepping out and revealing her face, everyone present fell silent for a moment, then a series of exclamations followed.

"She turned out to be an old lady!"

"Ms. Yang! May I ask if you are here for your great‑granddaughter?"

"Ms. Yang, does your appearance mean you are satisfied with Su Yu as the heir?"

"Ms. Yang, are Su Xi and Ji Yan not announcing their marriage because you disapprove?"

"Ms. Yang, why didn't you favor your granddaughter before?"

……

Yang Zhichun, who hadn't appeared in public for a long time, came to the Su Clan Group the day after Su Xi announced Su Yu as the next heir; everyone present could tell she was there to back up her grandson and great‑granddaughter.

The reporters originally intended to stalk Ji Yan and Su Xi, but ended up catching Yang Zhichun's first public appearance in years.

The hashtag #Yang Zhichun Su Clan Group# once topped the Hot Search.

The three entered the group under the escort of bodyguards. The employees whispered gossip in the chat group. "They really are going to have a three‑year‑old heiress!"

"Stay in the office and behave, we'll go to the meeting."

Su Xi grabbed an economics book for Su Yu, "Read whatever you want, no computer. If you're bored, eat something and go to the lounge to sleep."

Su Yu looked at Su Xi puzzled, "Don't I need to attend the meeting?"

"Those old guys will definitely cause trouble. I'd just hand out Misfortune Cards on the spot, no need to bother finding a list."

Su Xi was somewhat moved, he didn't close the matter.

"I'll have you wait here while I finish something and then come back. This is my office; there are bodyguards outside, you're safer."

"I can go with you."

Su Yu showed no hesitation. Anyway, she's very obedient and won't disturb her uncle.

Uncle really likes leaving his sentences unfinished, making it hard on his assistant; even in the last shift he still had to guess the boss's thoughts.

"Some scenes, kids aren't allowed to see."

"What? It's not even 18+, what's there not to watch. I get that Uncle wants to keep his image in front of me; if I don't go, then I won't."

"Then should I go find great‑grandma?"

"Great‑grandma is already resting; be good, okay?"

Su Xi gently patted Su Yu's head.

"Alright!"

Su Yu cheerfully replied, sat obediently on the sofa, and picked up a small cake to eat.

"There's surveillance."

"Oh~"

Su Yu drooped her head. Her own office has surveillance; I really don't know whether to praise Su Xi for being cautious or reckless! What if the cameras get hacked?

Su Xi saw Su Yu looking listless and found it amusing; it was like raising a younger brother all over again.

Su Xi left the CEO's office and went to Yang Zhichun's chairman office.

"Grandma!"

Su Xi saw Yang Zhichun weary, propping his head, and felt a brief panic.

"It's fine, have you already ordered people to investigate?"

Having repeatedly heard so much bad news from his great‑granddaughter, Yang Zhichun found it hard to accept, which explains his current fatigue.

"We've investigated everything; Chu Han Ya's matter just came up."
