Mi Jia Xiao Wu

Chapter 3 Fortune Smiles

Guo Xuyang felt his head was hazy. He wanted to open his eyes, but found his eyelids were very heavy. He remembered he had gotten into a car accident on the highway and hit his head hard. Then he found himself outside the car. Later, he saw several people hastily putting him into an ambulance, and he followed them in.

No, something seemed wrong. How did he get outside the car? He was clearly strapped into his seat by the seatbelt.

Suddenly, a ding sounded in his head: "Master, congratulations on triggering the ability system. I am Little Sprite Yu'er, happy to serve you."

Ability system? What ability system? I don't even know if I'm alive or dead, and you're triggering an ability system.

Huh? Ability system? Haven't I transmigrated?

"What abilities do I have?" Guo Xuyang couldn't help but ask.

"There are many abilities, such as x-ray vision, perception, storage, fusion, shapeshifting, and so on. These need to be discovered by Master you," Yu'er said, counting on her little fingers.

Heavens, aren't I super awesome? Awesome to the point of destruction.

If I had these abilities, why would I still sell houses? Tomorrow I'll try to get a hundred million. Let's complete a small goal first.

"However, all of these require you to exchange them with merit points. One merit point costs a hundred thousand gold coins, which is one million paper currency in the secular world. It takes one hundred merit points to exchange for an ability, one thousand merit points to level up, and an ability can be upgraded to the highest level, level nine, at most."

God, can't you just say it all at once? This is a money-sucking beast. That's right, such powerful abilities without a threshold, would they still be abilities? If I had all the abilities, wouldn't I be able to ascend to heaven and date swallows?

No, wrong. Ascend to heaven and roam space.

"Since you have triggered the ability system, the ability has granted you x-ray vision. However, it is only at the beginner level, and you can only see objects within ten meters. To see further, you need to keep upgrading. At most, you can see infinitely far, like a thousand-mile eye."

I, I, hurry up and let me get up. I want to go to the street. I want to admire beauties.

Wahahaha, wahahaha. Guo Xuyang couldn't help but laugh out loud.

"Yangzi, Yangzi, are you alright?" a voice sounded in his ear.

Guo Xuyang tried hard to open his eyes but was blinded by the dazzling white.

No, where is this?

"Ah..." Guo Xuyang yelped and scrambled to his feet.

"Slow down, slow down, are you okay?" It sounded like Xiao Yun.

Guo Xuyang collected himself and saw Xiao Yun looking at him with concern. A beautiful woman was standing next to her.

His nose suddenly started bleeding. It was too much, too dazzling. Oh my, it was worth it this time.

"Where are you looking? Oh my, why are you bleeding from your nose? Doctor, Doctor..." Xiao Yun saw Guo Xuyang staring blankly ahead and suddenly bleeding from his nose, and she was so scared she hastily called for the doctor.

The doctor hurried over, looked at Guo Xuyang's head, then at his nose, and said, "It's nothing, perhaps it's..."

The doctor's eyes glanced at Xiao Yun's best friend, then at Guo Xuyang, and said, "Youth is good. You bled so much from your head, and your vitality is still so strong. You'll be fine after resting for a while."

Xiao Yun was a bit confused by the doctor's words. Only her best friend gave Guo Xuyang a deep look, a slight smile curving her lips.

Hearing the doctor's words, Guo Xuyang quickly said, "Doctor, I still feel a bit dizzy. Will there be any after-effects?"

"You should stay in the hospital for observation for two days. This is also related to your significant blood loss," the doctor said. "Eating more things to replenish qi and blood these two days will be beneficial for you, but don't overdo it."

The doctor's words had a hidden meaning.

Xiao Yun said, "Rest here and recover. I'll ask the company to grant you leave. Look, it's all your fault for being a jinx. Otherwise, none of this would have happened?"

It's true, who told me to talk nonsense? People say that bad omens are always right, and now it's confirmed, I'm a jinx.

"Are you blaming me? If you hadn't reacted quickly and dodged, we would have been finished today. That car was really trying to rob us and kill us."

"Pah, pah, pah, stop saying such unlucky things." Xiao Yun quickly spat a few times upon hearing this, scaring Guo Xuyang into silence. "This is my best friend, Chen Hailing. We were planning to go to her place for dinner today."

"I'm so sorry. The car behind us was driven by my brother. We will cover all your medical expenses, as well as your lost wages, dining expenses, and so on." Chen Hailing leaned forward and said softly.

"You really need to control your brother. His temper will eventually get him into trouble," Guo Xuyang said. "If Sister Yun hadn't reacted quickly, you would have been collecting our bodies. You don't know how ruthless your brother was at the time, he was heading straight for us. He wanted to take our lives."

As he spoke, Guo Xuyang patted his chest, still a little frightened.

"I am truly sorry. I will discipline him more when I get back. Please be magnanimous and forgive my brother this time." Chen Hailing was truly afraid that Guo Xuyang would say too much and report these matters to the police.

"Since you are Sister Yun's best friend, as long as Sister Yun doesn't pursue it, I won't ask for anything. Who told me to be greedy for a bargain?" Guo Xuyang's eyes darted towards Chen Hailing again.

"Hey, hey, what are you looking at? Didn't the fall make you stupid?" Xiao Yun saw clearly this time. Suddenly recalling the doctor's words about his strong vitality, she became a bit annoyed.

"Beauties are meant to be looked at. Otherwise, wouldn't their divinely given beauty be wasted?" Guo Xuyang had a lot of crooked logic.

"Alright, you rest well. I'll go get you some food." Xiao Yun didn't want to bicker with him anymore. She pulled her best friend and walked out.

Guo Xuyang's eyes watched the two women leave reluctantly, and his nose started bleeding again uncontrollably.

Oh my, who can resist this? I've only just seen two beautiful women, and if I see more, won't my lifespan be shortened? He thought resentfully. This ability is too much of a rip-off.

Instead of admitting his impure thoughts, he blamed the ability system for being a rip-off, which deeply hurt the little system sprite.

I'm going to draw a circle and curse you.

By almost ten o'clock, Xiao Yun returned from outside, looking like she had drunk quite a bit.

"Here, the meal you missed today will be made up to you next time. My best friend bought these for you." Xiao Yun held several bags in both hands. "This is clothes, these are pants, these are underwear, this is a shirt, this is a hat. And this sheep brain and lamb soup, you eat what replenishes what. See how good my best friend is to you."

"Why are you still here so late? It would be the same if you delivered them tomorrow." Although they were colleagues in the same group, Guo Xuyang was quite touched by being cared for by a woman like this for the first time.

"Don't feel obligated. If you really feel obligated, you could pledge yourself to me." Xiao Yun, reeking of alcohol, spoke boldly.

"Forget it, I still want to live a few more years." Guo Xuyang retorted verbally. "Hurry back, it's too late."

"I'm not leaving tonight. I'll stay with you."

"There's no place to lie down here, how will you rest?"

"It's okay, I'll just rest by leaning on the bed for a while tonight." Xiao Yun said, taking a stool and sitting by his bedside.

It was fortunate that Xiao Yun was fine today, but unexpectedly, she not only had a great life but also a great disposition, planning to accompany him like this all night. He truly felt very indebted.
