Chapter 69
Except for a large bag of potato chips, Yuan Luoyi also dug out some gummy candies, chocolates, mermaid dream-colored macarons, popping ice creams, and a spicy snack commemorating the 50th anniversary of the factory's founding.
Keeping a small pack of gummy candies for herself, Yuan Luoyi stuffed the remaining snacks into the arms of her elder brother Yuan Fa.
Yuan Fa stood stiffly in place, looking at the snacks, then at Yuan Luoyi, shocked by this generous gift.
"Are all these for me?"
"Yes."
If he were a normal brother, he would have been deeply moved at this moment, but Yuan Fa was full of suspicion about everything.
"Unsolicited kindness often hides an ulterior motive. Did you do something wrong to me?"
"No."
Yuan Fa stared at Yuan Luoyi, his gaze focused, as if he wanted to dissect her.
His sister had changed; in the past, when he stared at her, she would tremble in fear, which was the norm. But now, there was no fear in her eyes, only a calm expression that only those who have endured hardship can have.
This kind of expression on an 11-year-old girl was rather strange, and Yuan Fa couldn't understand it.
He began to review the events of the past few days, trying to find a reasonable source for his sister's change. Suddenly, he exclaimed.
"Yesterday, I forgot to lock my computer. Did you delete the save file of my game?"
"Ah... Second brother, just go check it yourself to see."
"My dear sister, you really are...!"GEtt the latest novels at novelhall.com
Yuan Fa was utterly devastated. That was a game he had spent a month grinding to beat, and now even breathing was painful for him. Who could have imagined that his sister would turn the tables on him?
Angrily, he snatched the gummy candies from Yuan Luoyi's hand and took them for himself without any courtesy. He tilted his head back, gazing at the pendant light, his expression bleak, his exaggerated movements as if he were mourning the pendant light.
After venting his sorrow, he quickly ran away with a pile of snacks, needing to check the "damage" to his game.
"Tee hee!"
Yuan Luoyi couldn't help but chuckle lightly.
Of course, she hadn't touched Yuan Fa's computer; it had always been the second brother bullying her. Today, she was finally able to bully the second brother.
When he discovers the truth, he will definitely get even angrier.
Leaning back, she fell onto the soft, fluffy bed, deciding to rest a little longer, after all, it was still 4 a.m. now.
Closing her eyes to cultivate sleepiness, after a while, Yuan Luoyi let out a long sigh.
Now her influence is 230, and based on her past experience of participating in variety shows, she might be able to quickly raise it to 270, which would allow her to use the system's clue function to catch the real culprit!
Before getting out of the car, Yuan Luoyi hugged Yuan Ao as a farewell, then ran into Star Galaxy Middle School, making a few agile turns to avoid the reporters who wanted to interview her.
She scanned around, but unfortunately didn't find any of the show's staff.
In Class D, Yuan Luoyi sat aimlessly, and after a long time, her only classmate Yuhua still hadn't arrived. She took out her phone and sent him a text.
"Why didn't you come today?"
In just a few seconds, Yuhua replied, clearly playing on his phone.
"I'm here, in the school cafeteria. Where are you?"
"I'm in the classroom."
"Why are you in the classroom? The variety show is filming in the cafeteria today. Ah! You must not have seen the notification in the school group!"
Yuhua forwarded a message.
"Dear freshmen, please note that the variety show will be filming in the cafeteria tomorrow morning. Please arrive at the cafeteria before 9 a.m."
Yuan Luoyi looked at the time - it was already 8:53 a.m.! It's too late!
She stood up and started running towards the exit, but then suddenly remembered that the cafeteria was only 30 meters away from the classroom, so she slowed down her pace and strolled leisurely into the cafeteria, still with 6 minutes to spare.
Seeing the other students running out of breath, Yuan Luoyi deeply realized the importance of geographic strategy.
The cafeteria had undergone a big transformation today. The first floor, which used to sell Chinese food, was now decorated sumptuously, like a five-star hotel, with carved black lacquered wooden tables and various traditional Chinese lanterns.
Now it looked like a black market, with long composite board tables piled with cleaning supplies, and no chairs - the students could only stand in a messy manner, occasionally complaining.
At 9 o'clock, the beautiful host Nalan walked to the middle with a microphone.
"Good morning, students. Today's event is called 'Young people, strive to be the world's richest!' The top three winners will receive generous prizes!"
Mentioning money, the students were no longer sleepy, and they stared eagerly at the host.
The cameraman was also very skilled, immediately turning the camera to capture the students' expressions, and purposely lingered on Yuan Luoyi for a few seconds, as she was the most popular participant for the show so far.
To the sound of lively music, a grid map appeared on the big screen, similar to the board game Monopoly, with dense rules written next to it.
Yuan Luoyi stared at the screen, deep in thought, and Suxun was also watching intently.
Nalan continued, "The rules are simple - just roll the dice, and the number you roll is how many steps you move on the map. You may encounter rewards and become rich overnight, or you may have a business failure and go bankrupt."
"By 12 noon, whoever has earned the most money will be the world's richest and the champion!"
