Chapter 362: Using Draw Cards
She said, "Mom is already making a fuss."
Tang Can decided not to inherit the family business. During her time in Yangcheng, she clarified this to her mother.
She said, "Mom plans to divide the portion of assets that belong to her and leave the Tang Family."
Tang Can supported her mother's approach. For many years, her mother had been working like a beast of burden at the company. She had poured a lot of effort into her career, but her father and grandparents wanted to bind her with childbearing. Before she returned to the country, her father even blamed all the mistakes of a certain incident on her mother.
She said, "I can help, if you need me."
Su Yu was worried that Tang Can's subordinates might betray her.
Tang Can laughed and shook her head, "No need, I'm great, working a while wouldn't be bad either."
Tang Can didn't mention her mother, and Su Yu understood her thinking, so she stopped bringing up the offer to help.
Liang Yan propped his chin, somewhat worried, "Can Can, what if your family arranges another fiancé for you?"
She said, "No, Softy previously left a house for the two of us, and I've already transferred my household registration there."
This is the "reward" Tang Can gave her mother as a tip‑off.
She exclaimed, "Yay, where are you going to live when you go back?"
She replied, "Exactly!"
Tang Can felt very lucky; she had known Su Yu and Liang Yan since childhood. Now that she's grown up, she has confidence in anything she does, having a backing, so she doesn't need to fear anything! With Tang Can and Liang Yan emotionally stable, Su Yu felt at ease.
The three of them spent an afternoon playing Aeroplane Chess in the rain, and at night they played the battle VR game Tang Can liked, before each returned to their own rooms to sleep.
Su Yu went back to her room and hurriedly asked Wulongcha to show her the cards she had drawn.
【Wulongcha, what did I draw?】
【Here it comes!】
Wulongcha opened Su Yu's card collection and placed the new cards at the front.
Su Yu clicked them one by one.
【Love Card】: Increases a species' yearning for love. (1 card) 【Beloved Card】: Allows viewing a creature's true love, helping understand its preferences.

【Wow, what a haul!】
Su Yu was quite satisfied with this draw's results! 【So many duplicates, no wonder they go bankrupt trying to draw.】
Wulongcha wasn't satisfied with its own system's drop rate, 【This is still the result of using a Lucky Card!】
Speaking of that, Su Yu had something to ask, 【Has anyone ever thought of using a Lucky Card on drawing cards?】
Wulongcha felt a bit guilty; if not for its involvement, Su Yu would have arrived at the childhood stage, and Su Yu's Lucky Card would certainly have been used on herself.
【The Hosts we bind are mostly rich yet unlucky; compared to returning, they care more about living well.】
【I see.】
Su Yu was just curious, asking, she was more concerned about how to use these cards to cause trouble for Jiang Yuzhen, the Jiang Family, and the Shui Family.
【Wulongcha, do you have any suggestions? Which cards for Jiang Yuzhen and her fiancé, and which cards for the Jiang Family and the Shui Family?】
Wulongcha bobbed up and down, 【Should they take effect immediately?】
【Yes, it's better if the enemy bites the dust early!】
Wulongcha tallied, 【Hair‑growth Card can be given to Shui Wanhua, Jiang Yuzhen, and her fiancé. Quick‑wit Card and Paralysis Card go to Jiang Qiyu, Neglect Card all to Shui Shouhong, the remaining Dementia Cards and Hair‑growth Cards are randomly assigned to these two families.】
【Wulongcha, can I see?】
Su Yu felt itchy inside! She really wanted to see the scene, or arrange someone to secretly film it? But she couldn't explain why she knew they would run into trouble.
Wulongcha tried, 【It's possible, but it would violate the condition you promised.】
Su Yu hacked into the two families' cameras, she could barely see. The Jiang Family's defenses are average, the Shui Family lives in a big courtyard, and Su Yu would be easily caught if she wasn't careful.
【Forget it, I don't want to be an uncontrollable person.】
In the eyes of the higher‑ups, an uncontrollable person has only a dead end.
【I'll follow your instructions, I'm going to sleep!】
【Okay!】
Wulongcha went to the Jiang Family, the Shui Family, and Jiang Yuzhen's fiancé's family—the Xu Family—and used cards on each.
Jiang Yuzhen, who was undergoing a beauty treatment at the Jiang Family, let out a sharp scream! "What did you do to me?!"
Only Jiang Yuzhen was home at the Jiang Family, so she called a group of masseurs to come and serve her, doing a pre‑sleep beauty routine. But as soon as the beauticians applied the skincare lotion she had chosen, hair started sprouting all over her body! All over! Including her face! Jiang Yuzhen was so agitated she was about to go mad!
The beauticians were shocked, completely unable to understand what was happening. The lotion, aside from its pleasant scent and ability to seep into the skin, had no other effect, so why did it cause Jiang Yuzhen to grow hair wildly? "Quick, call 120!"
The beauticians, while arranging for someone to call 120 and send her to the hospital, secretly phoned the boss, trying to devise a reasonable plan.
Jiang Yuzhen was taken to a private hospital, and after various examinations, the doctors were initially a bit excited. If Jiang Yuzhen's whole‑body hair growth was due to the lotion, then bald people would have a cure!
Unfortunately, after various tests and even experimenting with the lotion, the doctors found it had no hair‑growing effect.
Jiang Yuzhen's condition was probably a special reaction under certain circumstances? The research‑oriented doctors wanted to study it closely, but Jiang Yuzhen, after having her hair shaved, refused to cooperate!
She was covered in hair, and the hair growth demanded nutrition. She became malnourished because of the hair.
Moreover, after the hair grew, her facial pores enlarged one after another. In the mirror, her face looked as if strands of hair were planted into it!
Even horror‑movie female ghosts aren't as scary as her!
She glanced at it, then fainted on the spot. Upon waking again, she strongly demanded to go home and absolutely refused to cooperate with the doctors' research.
…
Shui Wanhua's abnormality didn't attract the attention of the "nursing home" staff. Shui Wanhua was made uncomfortable by the hair growth.
After waking, she used her dignified appearance to frighten the night guard, and rushed out! She isn't ill!
She wants to go out, she wants her husband and daughter to regret it deeply!
…
Xu Longhu was playing an adult game with his little lover, and the sudden hair surge caused him to slam onto the lover, fainting.
The little lover's high‑pitched scream echoed through the whole building. After being scolded by neighbors, he dared not take anyone to the hospital, trembling as he stayed by Xu Longhu's side, devising two plans.
If Xu Longhu dies, how will he clear himself of the crime? If Xu Longhu doesn't die, how will he reap the greatest benefit, extracting him from the whole‑body hair issue of Xu Longhu!
The little lover doesn't even dare to touch Xu Longhu's hair, fearing that shaving it might have some adverse effect on Xu Longhu.
……
Late at night, Jiang Qiyu was still working overtime.
The Jiang Family is far too dependent on the Shui Family. During this period, he sent Shui Wanhua to a "sanatorium", sent Jiang Yuzhen to act as a dutiful granddaughter, and coaxed those old clods of the Shui Family.
But they showed no gratitude at all!
They accept the goods, smile politely to Jiang Yuzhen, yet give no assistance to the Jiang Family. Every time Jiang Yuzhen returns empty‑handed, Jiang Qiyu's fake‑smile mask threatens to slip! He wants to break free from the Shui Family's shackles, but he knows his abilities are limited; aside from his acting skills, his business acumen is rather mediocre, and maintaining the vast family enterprise is hard.
In an instant, Jiang Qiyu thought of a promising development direction; if it succeeds, his company could become the industry leader in that field. By then, his standing with the Shui Family would be reversed!
But that idea lasted only a moment; suddenly he felt as if he couldn't move!
"Someone, come!"
"Take me to the hospital!"
The beautiful secretaries who had been waiting outside rushed into the office and drove Jiang Qiyu to the hospital.
Jiang Qiyu, whose whole body was immobilized except his mouth, was terrified!
He didn't know why he had become paralyzed!
His head suddenly ached! He wanted to record the development direction he had just managed to think of, yet he worried that the women around him were spies sent by someone else.
He remained conflicted all the way, and upon reaching the hospital, he immediately fell into a deep sleep.
A secretary secretly sent a message to the eldest son, the original heir, Jiang Jizhou. Another secretary contacted the second son, the current heir of the Jiang Family.
……
Shui Family: "Ah!"
Shui Shouhong's whole body was covered in hair, startling the entire Shui Family! The hospital here operates 24 hours. Yet after examination, the Doctor found no cause for Shui Shouhong's excessive hair.
Aside from malnutrition, he has no other ailments.
This hospital is equipped with a professional cosmetic Doctor who can roughly restore Shui Shouhong to his original appearance. To truly return to his former look, a long period of recuperation is required.
"We have a professional Doctor here; as long as Mr. Shui cooperates with the treatment, he should recover to his previous state within three months."
The Doctor earnestly handed over his plan, but almost got punched! 【Dream Entry Card】: designates two people to enter a dream, duration one minute【Rewind Card】: rewinds to age four
