Chapter 1811: Unlucky Heiress (79)

The male student couldn't help asking, “Out of nowhere, why are you suddenly giving me something? And it's even a fortune bead tied with a red string. Also, Xu Nini, your face is a little red. What's going on?”

The system: 【...】

Tang Guo: “...”

No matter how good Xu Nini's temper was, she was on the verge of breaking down.

She had originally thought that, since Tang Yi had been looking for this guy so often lately, the two of them might end up becoming boyfriend and girlfriend.

But after secretly observing them, she discovered that although Tang Yi deliberately approached him, she clearly had no such intentions. Every time she came to see him, it was only to ask highly specialized academic questions.

Other than explaining problems to her, this blockhead simply paid no attention to Tang Yi.

Now that she saw how unlucky he had become, she even suspected that Heaven itself thought he was too dense and had decided to punish him.

“Figure it out yourself.”

Xu Nini said somewhat angrily, “I'm leaving. Return my fortune bead when your luck improves. It's very important to me.”

After saying that, she turned and left.

The male student stood dumbfounded beneath the boys' dormitory building, staring at Xu Nini's petite figure as she walked away.

He muttered to himself, “If it's so important, why would she casually lend it to someone else?”

“Xu Nini is really acting strange today.”

“But this thing is called a fortune bead?” He pinched the bead on his wrist. “I wonder if it actually works. Since Xu Nini treasures it so much, I'll wear it. I can't let down her good intentions.”

“Xu Nini, thank you! Once my luck improves, I'll definitely come thank you!”

Seeing that she hadn't gone far, he cupped his hands around his mouth and shouted loudly.

Unexpectedly, his shout caused people in the boys' dormitory to poke their heads out and look.

When they saw his dazed expression, they withdrew their heads again and began discussing whether the guy had turned misfortune into fortune. It looked like he was finally about to leave the ranks of the single.

These days, even a block of wood had someone willing to take it.

Jealous.

Although he'd been unlucky lately, the fact that a cute girl like Xu Nini had taken a liking to him was truly blessed fortune.

“Looks like I don't need to interfere,” Tang Guo said with a smile as she opened her eyes. “Even though he's been affected by the evil object, his own luck is incredibly strong, comparable to Xu Nini's. In fact, he's even luckier than she is. It just so happened that the evil object was short on energy, which is why he only suffered a little bad luck before encountering Xu Nini. Now that two people with such abundant fortune are together, we don't need to do anything. Let's just see how long that evil thing can hold out.”

Tang Kui had also learned about the matter and chose the same attitude as Tang Guo.

They would simply leave it alone.

Meanwhile, Tang Yi had developed the same routine every morning upon waking.

She would secretly take out the lucky charm and ask whether its energy had been replenished.

Every time she saw the words “Energy insufficient,” her mind would descend into chaos.

Especially these past few days, the lucky charm would heat up once every day, as if constantly reminding her of its lack of energy.

Actually, she had already begun to suspect something after the senior's sudden streak of bad luck.

Not long after she got close to him, he started running into misfortune after misfortune.

There couldn't be so many coincidences in the world.

Back when she wished for Tang Kui's sincere love, she had also dreamed that the Tang couple had died together.

In the end, the two of them had indeed gotten into an accident, but they hadn't died.

Naturally, she still hadn't obtained Tang Kui's sincerity.

Which meant, subconsciously, she understood that the price for Tang Kui's genuine affection was the deaths of the Tang couple.
