Chapter 29, Ning, you don't want your aunt to be sad, do you?
After dinner, before it got too dark, Lu Ran sat in the courtyard and silently summoned the system to check his stored experience points, finding that he already had 2880 points.
I just transferred one million to my aunt, and now she still has over one million left in her account.
I need to go abroad in a month to have Cheng Ning's eyes checked, so I need to prepare at least a few million.
Currently, unless he sells the villa, he really won't have enough money.
Buying a house is easy, but selling one is not so easy; it's common for a house to be listed for a year or two.
"Hopefully, I'll get something good."
Lu Ran muttered to himself, praying that his luck wouldn't be too bad.
He then mentally instructed the system, "System, open the King's Treasure Chest."
【ding~】
[Opening the King's Treasure Chest will reduce the chest's experience points by 1000.]
[King's Treasure Chest Opening Now...]
[Congratulations, host! You have opened the King's Treasure Chest and received 10 yuan in cash.]
Lu Ran: ......
"System, open the King's Treasure Chest."
【ding~】
[Opening the King's Treasure Chest will reduce the chest's experience points by 1000.]
[King's Treasure Chest Opening Now...]
[Congratulations, host! You have opened the King's Treasure Chest and obtained a Patek Philippe watch worth 10 yuan. The order has been placed on the official website and is expected to arrive within five days.]
"Damn it!"
Lu Ran's fist hardened, but it felt like he was punching cotton, or rather, hitting the air, because the system had no physical form.
Back then, he spent several 648-yuan pulls on the character Ryouka, and every time he got the pity system. His friend easily got the character and weapon with 20 pulls using the free gems he had saved up.
From that moment on, he hated all gacha games.
Now that he's had two consecutive bad luck openings of the treasure chests in the system, he really wants to cry; he's so upset.
"I refuse to believe it! System, open the diamond treasure chest."
Everyone is a gambler, just in different ways.
For gamblers, they won't stop until they've squeezed out every last penny. Lu Ran didn't wait to collect a thousand experience points; he went straight for the end.
【ding~】
[Opening the Diamond Chest will reduce chest experience points by 500.]
[Diamond Chest Opening in Progress...]
[Congratulations, host! You have opened a Diamond Treasure Chest and received a 5080 graphics card. The order has been placed on the official website and is expected to arrive within two days.]
Lu Ran: ┗|｀O′|┛
Lu Ran gritted his teeth: "There are three hundred left."
"System, open the Golden Treasure Chest."
【ding~】
[Opening the Golden Treasure Chest will reduce the chest's experience points by 300.]
[Golden Treasure Chest Opening...]
[Congratulations, host! You have opened the Golden Treasure Chest and received 500 million yuan in cash. The payment has been transferred to you through official channels. Please check your account.]
"call···"
Lu Ran slumped into the chair, finally feeling satisfied.
The 500 million in the Golden Treasure Chest is already a high-level reward, which is pretty good.
He said, "No child cries every day, and no gambler loses every day."
He took out his phone and received a text message that 500 million yuan in cash had been deposited into his account.
The online shopping platform also popped up two messages, indicating that the graphics card and watch had been successfully purchased.
Lu Ran thought for a moment.
He's already using a 5090d graphics card, so getting a 5080 wouldn't make much difference.
Give it to Cheng Ning... She probably won't need it, because replacing the 5080 would require replacing all the computer parts, and Cheng Ning is already used to her old computer.
Replacing it with a new one is not necessarily a good thing.
"Then give it to my adopted son."
Lu Ran muttered to himself, then changed the delivery address of the graphics card to Li Shang's house.
As for watches...
Let's keep it for now; we should be able to use it in a few days.
After changing the address, Lu Ran sent a message to Li Shang.
Lu Ran: Call me Dad, there's a surprise.
"Xiao Lu, come in and have some soup."
"Auntie's here."
Lu Ran put away his phone, got up and went inside.
"Xiao Lu, after you finish your soup, would you like to come with us to see Cheng Ning's father?"
Lu Ran and Cheng Ning both stopped drinking their soup.
Cheng Ning's happy tears instantly welled up in her eyes.
For the first time in so many years, her mother was willing to go with her to see her father.
Lu Ran quickly nodded, "Okay, Auntie, I'll go with you."
Wu Meimei nodded and smiled, but when she saw her daughter crying, she felt a pang of heartache.
But he said, "You've never cried in front of outsiders since your father passed away. Why have you become so fragile and cry so easily?"
Cheng Ning quickly wiped away her tears.
"Mom, I... I won't do it again."
Wu Meimei said calmly, "I'm not saying you can't cry, but until you meet another man besides your father who can protect you, you must learn to be strong."
As she spoke, Wu Meimei glanced at Lu Ran.
He then said, "Now you can relax and release your emotions."
"Mother."
Cheng Ning murmured softly; she knew what her mother meant.
But she didn't want to lie to her mother.
So she whispered, "Actually, Lu Ran and I..."
As she was speaking, Cheng Ning suddenly felt herself being pulled into a strong embrace, abruptly interrupting her.
And who else could this person be but Lu Ran?
Lu Ran put his arm around Cheng Ning and patted his chest, saying, "Don't worry, Auntie, I will definitely protect Cheng Ning well from now on and never let her suffer any injustice."
Wu Meimei smiled and nodded: "Yes, Auntie believes you."
Then, the three of them took the items for the worship and went out together.
On the way, Cheng Ning deliberately pulled Lu Ran a distance behind her mother.
Clutching his shirt at the waist, she asked in a low voice, embarrassed and annoyed, "Why did you just do that?"
Lu Ran looked confused: "Just now? What just happened?"
"You mean I drank the rest of your soup, right?"
"Hey, we're all friends, why are you fussing over such a small thing? Be more generous."
Cheng Ning was so anxious she almost kicked him.
She bit her lip and said, "You know what I'm talking about."
【ding~】
[Hint, hint, hint! Host, don't miss this opportunity to improve your relationship! At times like these, men need to be a little bit mischievous to attract women more.]
[Heartbeat Challenge Special Edition Now Open.]
[Challenge time limit: 10 minutes.]
[Reward: 500 Treasure Chest Experience Points.]
Ten minutes?
If things were to reach such a limit, Lu Ran would have no choice but to swallow his pride and give up.
Lu Ran coughed lightly: "Ahem, yes, I just hugged you. In the future, I might do some intimate things with you in front of your aunt, but there's nothing I can do about it. Please understand."
Cheng Ning: ? ? ?
"What are you saying? How could you, how could you do this!"
Seeing how gentle and charming Cheng Ning was even when she was angry, Lu Ran genuinely liked her and couldn't help but want to tease her.
So he said, "Cheng Ning, you don't want your aunt to be sad, do you? She'll be so disappointed if she finds out we're not a couple. After all, someone like me is one in a million."
Cheng Ning clenched her fists; she realized that Lu Ran was becoming increasingly shameless.
Where did that big boy who used to be so awkward talking to her go? What corrupted him?
Cheng Ning's heartbeat gradually quickened, so much so that Lu Ran, who was standing next to her, could hear it.
It turns out that when things are ambiguous, a bad boy is very attractive to girls.
Of course, this is on the premise that you and the girl can establish an ambiguous atmosphere; otherwise, it would be sexual harassment.
