Chapter 1733: Unlucky Heiress (3)

After that day, Tang Yi let her go, and it seemed as though the matter had passed.

Not long afterward, one of her childhood friends was getting married and invited her to be a bridesmaid.

She wanted to get out and clear her mind, but she never expected that trip would become a nightmare.

The local custom there seemed to involve teasing and harassing bridesmaids.

As for that friend she had always considered close, it turned out only she herself had believed they were good friends.

The other girl had been jealous of her since childhood. She envied her for having loving adoptive parents and envied her even more for returning to the Tang family and becoming a wealthy young lady, living a comfortable and privileged life.

It was precisely because she knew about the local tradition of tormenting bridesmaids that she had invited her.

Naturally, the original owner suffered terribly during the wedding.

By the time she returned home, she had nearly fallen into depression and isolation because of what had happened.

Those days were nothing but darkness to her.

Everyone who had loved her was dead. Who could she confide in? The scars left by those events could never be erased.

And then, just when she was at her lowest, light entered her life once more.

A man named Yan Song appeared.

He was like warm sunlight, leading her out of the darkness.

Yan Song treated her with extraordinary tenderness, and before long, she fell deeply in love with him. Soon after, they got married.

She thought she had finally found happiness.

Little did she know that marrying Yan Song would become the greatest tragedy of her life.

"There clearly shouldn't be any supernatural forces in this world, yet something capable of stealing another person's fortune actually exists."

After marrying Yan Song, the original owner lived through one tragedy after another. Tang Guo no longer wished to continue reading.

Since she had arrived, everything could be changed.

【Host, does that mean we need to find a way to destroy that nasty thing in Tang Yi's hands?】 the System asked.

That's right. The reason the original owner lived such a miserable life was entirely because of something in Tang Yi's possession.

Perhaps Tang Yi hadn't known at first that the object could steal other people's fortune.

But after everything that happened later, Tang Guo absolutely didn't believe Tang Yi remained unaware of the severe consequences caused by that object.

Tang Yi possessed a stone called the Lucky Charm.

She had picked it up by accident.

As long as she wrote down her wishes on the stone, they would come true.

Tang Yi had lost both her parents when she was young. When she was sent to the orphanage, she made her first wish:

"I want loving parents, and I want to live a happy and wealthy life."

At that time, she had no idea that the day after she wrote that wish was the very day the original owner became separated from her parents.

Then came everything that followed—Tang Yi being brought into the Tang family.

Because the Lucky Charm possessed a strange power, it would search for the person whose circumstances best matched Tang Yi's wish and strip that person's happiness away, transferring it to Tang Yi.

Naturally, Tang Yi's misfortune would then be shifted onto Tang Guo.

Fortunately, both the original owner and her adoptive parents possessed unusually strong fortune, which was why the couple didn't lose their lives until the time of her college entrance examination.

【Host, it seems your brother Tang Kui was also influenced by Tang Yi's Lucky Charm.】

"Mm. She wrote on the Lucky Charm that she wanted my brother's sincere love. The reason they struggled with each other for so long was because my brother was still a man with principles. But in the end, with only the strength of an ordinary mortal, he still couldn't resist such an evil object."

【Then what do we do next, Host? That thing is truly wicked. We'd better destroy it as soon as possible.】

Tang Guo smiled lightly.

"Destroy it? Why destroy it?"

"Since Tang Yi likes using it so much, I'll let her continue using it. I just want to see what kind of price she can pay for all those wishes she keeps making."
