Chapter 1734: Unlucky Heiress (4)

"With the college entrance examination just around the corner, going to find Tang Yi now isn't realistic. The safety charms I gave my adoptive parents are items from the Immortal Realm. Dealing with that evil object won't be a problem. After all, Brother Chixiao is an expert in this field. If he can't even handle something like that, he might as well stop making a living in the Immortal Realm."

"As for Tang Yi, let her continue jumping around. I haven't seen the final ending of this story, but I don't believe that evil object is truly some good thing that she can use forever."

So Host was planning to let Tang Yi reap what she had sown?

That made sense. Destroying the evil object now would be such a waste. Tang Yi hadn't yet suffered its backlash. How could Host possibly take it away already?

He could already predict what would happen next.

No matter what wish Tang Yi wrote down, it probably wouldn't come true anymore. Instead, she would only become more and more unlucky. After all, not just anyone could steal the Host's fortune.

Over the next two months, Tang Guo peacefully focused on her studies. Although college entrance examinations had become second nature to her by now,

the questions varied slightly from one world to another.

Chen Xian and Zhao Wen ran a small business, so they were often out and about. Their family's life was warm and happy, which made Tang Guo very satisfied. After all, it had been a long time since she'd encountered parents this wonderful.

Compared to the pair from the previous world who adored their useless son, she still felt displeased when she thought about them.

Though Chen Xian and Zhao Wen were busy, they constantly reminded Tang Guo not to overwork herself and to maintain a calm state of mind. They didn't want her to push herself too hard.

As for the safety charms she had given them, they truly followed her instructions and never took them off, wearing them no matter what they did.

Finally, the day of the college entrance examination arrived.

While Tang Guo sat in the examination hall, the System followed her instructions and kept a close eye on the couple.

Host, the car flipped over.

The sudden report caused Tang Guo's pen to pause. The solution she had been writing stopped midway.

She froze in her seat, and the invigilator merely assumed the student had encountered a difficult problem and was thinking. Nothing seemed suspicious.

Host, continue your exam. They're fine. Although the car rolled several times and many parts were flung out from the impact, your parents are alright. They only suffered minor injuries. They've already been rescued and sent to the hospital. I've scanned them thoroughly. There really aren't any serious problems.

"Mm."

Only then did Tang Guo truly breathe a sigh of relief.

"Tell Brother Chixiao thank you for me."

Okay.

After that, Tang Guo never paused again.

As soon as the day's exam ended, she received the news about Chen Xian and Zhao Wen's accident and immediately rushed to the hospital.

Although the examination showed they had only suffered scratches, the accident itself had been severe, so the doctors insisted they stay for observation overnight.

When the couple saw Tang Guo, they exchanged glances and quickly embraced her.

Then, after everyone else had left the room, the two of them fumbled around and pulled the jade safety charms from beneath their clothes.

"When the car rolled over, I truly thought I was done for," Chen Xian said, still visibly shaken. "I could feel all sorts of weight crushing down on my body. But suddenly, my body became light, as if I had been enveloped in some kind of protective barrier."

The memory of that moment still left his mind blank.

Zhao Wen nodded as well.

"It was the same for me. After we got to the hospital, we took advantage of a moment when nobody was paying attention and looked at the safety charms. That's when we discovered a deep crack had appeared inside them."
