Chapter 21: Using the Luck-Trade System
Han Li gently dropped the small sack filled with coins on the ground.
Yue Li looked at it in intrigue and asked, curious, "What is that Xia Li?"
Han Li didn't answer and went behind her and wrapped his hands around her waist.
"Open the System, Mom."
"...Sure, but why?" n-/OVeLb1n
"Open it already..."
Yue Li pouted and opened it, and Han Li didn't waste time and took her hands into his, then used it to click "Luck-Trade".
Yue Li instinctively looked down at the "Asset Tab" and her eyes widened in surprise.
"Fiv..Five thousand?!" She exclaimed out loud.
Han Li grinned seeing the adorable expression. And said, his red eyes locked back on the System.
"Don't worry Mom, It is completely safe money."
"But..But Li, di..did you steal?!"
Somewhat pissed, Han Li shook his head, "Don't worry so much, you dumbass, and trade what I tell you to do."
"Xiao Li..."
Sigh... Han Li sighed at her frown and said, irritated, "It is something I got due to luck, okay? It was buried on the ground and I just got it."
"Xiao Li..."
"Okay, it was something I borrowed from someone and I will have to give it back, okay?" He asked, more irritated.
Yue Li sighed in relief, and said with a confident smile, "I know my son won't steal, I was just nervous seeing all the money."
"Now trade what I say."
Yue Li smiled nervously and clicked on empty air that looked like a golden screen to them. "What do you want to wish for?"
"An energy extraction pearl."
"A w–"
"Wish for it Mom."
Yue Li didn't think much about it and closed her eyes with irritation and then began to mutter in her heart, "I wish I get an Energy extraction pearl"
The golden screen shifted and showed another Tab:
[Assets you can exchange for an Energy Extraction Pearl: 3400 Sacred coins out of the 5220 coins. Accept Trade? Y/N]
Han Li smiled, indeed, both of these things were of Energy Nature.
Sacred coins could be used for cultivation after going through Evolution after all.
"That much money! Is it really any useful? Xiao Li... It will be a lot of hard work to pay it back...you know?"
"Stop whining and buy it." He rubbed his cheeks against hers.
Yue Li puffed her cheeks and clicked 'Yes'.
3400 coins vanished out of the sack on the ground. Han Li could see it visibly shrinking.
Licking his lips, Han Li waited without letting his mother go out of his embrace. Yue Li also waited nervously.
Knock* Knock*
A sound came from outside, someone was knocking on their door.
Han Li smiled and whispered, "Do you think it's here?"
Yue Li nodded.
Both of them stopped playing around and Han Li tentatively went and opened the door, and to his surprise, the person looking at him was someone he knew – it was Shan Liyue, Fat Uncle Li's daughter.
The one who was supposed to have a marriage the next day.
Han Li's eyes automatically moved to scan her looks. She was a young woman with a tanned and quite beautiful face, and she was wearing humble white village clothes and her eyes were the signature black of most Starlight Clan members.
Moreover, her boobs were aplenty and her butt was quite a sight.
The old Han Li would have thought her to be just above average, but the Great Demon could see that she had yet to have her full blossom and would be a great beauty.
Not at all understanding that a pervert had scanned her all over and instantly decided she was his woman from now, Shan Liyue smiled at Yue Li and said, "Hello Aunty Yue, and hello...hmm... Han Li!"
Han Li and Yue Li glanced at her in intrigue, and she looked back at them.
'Why are they glancing at me like that?' Liyue felt odd at their intrigued gazes and decided to immediately finish her job and go back.
"I was here to give some balance that my father forgot to give you, he wanted to give it to you in the morning but said he couldn't find you."
"Ah, that!" Han Li rose an eyebrow. Indeed, something like that happened.
"Yes, this is the 30 coins he asked me to give," Liyue calmly placed a small pouch on Yue Li's hands and looked at Han Li.
"And also, my father asked me to tell you to meet him tomorrow, I think you might get some work if you do."
Han Li smiled at her and said, "Don't worry, I will speak with him."
Surprised, Liyue looked at his face, it was only now that she suddenly saw his gleaming red eyes. 'Was it always red like that? It is so beautiful...'
Chuckling, Han Li asked, "You like those eyes?"
"...I do," Absentmindedly replying, Liyue's face immediately reddened.
"I..I mean, it is a beautiful color."
Han Li moved closer to her and looked straight into her black shiny eyes and asked, "Yours is also quite beautiful, you know?"
Feeling her heart skip a beat, Liyue shifted her gaze, she felt quite uncomfortable.
Seeing that, Han Li licked his lips and extended his hands towards her face.
'Wh...what is he about to do?' she exclaimed in her mind and was about to move back when Han Li gently took out something stuck in her hair.
"Sorry, our place has many birds that drop these things on your head."
Startled, she put her hands on the place where he took it from and asked in curiosity, "What is that?"
"It is nothing but a small stone." Han Li smiled and showed her what was in his hands, and indeed, it was a useless stone.
Feeling slightly ashamed, she cupped her fists and quickly left. Han Li glanced at her as she ran away.
"Cute girl right, Mom?"
Yue Li looked at him in amazement and nodded. Even an amateur like her could tell that he was teasing the poor girl.
And for some reason, she really liked what she saw. Maybe it was because she found something new about her son that she hadn't yet.
He was good at teasing other girls too.
Han Li chuckled at her and showed her the stone. "Do you know what this is Mom?"
Yue Li looked at it, it just looked like plain stone. "Is it the Energy extraction pearl thingy?"
"Yes, It is the cure for your legs."
Yue Li's eyes widened in surprise.
