System, hurry up! Hand it over to the supermarket and hug the country's thigh
Chapter 711 This is playing with your mentality
Lu Xi instantly felt like the sky was falling. The cards she played at the beginning of the game were blocked by the system, but she was so focused on playing that she forgot all about it.
This meant that she almost lost to the three of them in this round.
This result really made Lu Xi stunned for a moment, and an ominous premonition arose spontaneously. She felt that this was the beginning of her being "sanctioned" by the three of them.
It seems that the gold ingots in the box can no longer be kept.
She had repeated these two words at the beginning: "Everything will turn to its opposite when it reaches its extreme" and "Everything that prospers will decline when it reaches its peak", but she never expected that they would actually happen to her.
Oh my God, please don’t do this to me, Lu Xi wailed in her heart, feeling miserable.
Then, the next few games completely verified Lu Xi's worries. She was like being cast a spell. She kept taking out gold ingots. Either she accidentally let others win, or the cards she played were ruthlessly blocked. Then, she always missed the cards she was struggling with.
The loss of each round was like a heavy hammer, slowly and powerfully hitting Lu Xi's heart, bringing waves of loss.
She couldn't help but start to suspect that she was suffering from bad luck.
Comparing the winning streak in the previous period with the losing streak in this period, she became more determined in this idea.
Lu Xi even began to guess that her good luck in the previous period might have overdrawn her luck in the future.
Otherwise, the gap between before and after wouldn't be so huge, causing her to go from being smooth sailing before to stumbling now, and losing so miserably that she is simply unable to cry.
After an hour of fierce card battle, Lu Xi experienced many situations of feeding cards to others and being called upon. Dozens of gold ingots were thrown out like water, and what she had won before seemed very little in comparison.
Although in terms of value, the gold ingots she lost were far less valuable than the treasures she won, but losing was losing, and this psychological sense of loss still made her feel a little uncomfortable.
Lu Xi sighed softly, picked up the cup, and drank the last sip of warm tea in it, as if trying to calm the turmoil in her heart.
Well, I failed. Even the sweet tea couldn’t heal the pain in my heart. I knelt for more than an hour and my mentality has collapsed and my faith in Taoism is unstable.
After putting down the cup, she said with a determined look in her eyes, "Let's play one last round. It'll be time for dinner soon."
Lu Xi knew the truth that "it is better not to start than to know the mistake and not correct it". After realizing that she was unlucky tonight, she knew that she couldn't go down the same path to the end, and it would be wise to stop in time.
However, when playing cards with family, one cannot be too concerned about winning or losing. Besides, she had already won so much before, and she would feel embarrassed if she quit now that she lost.
When I say this now, I actually just want to find a suitable excuse for myself to leave.
In addition, there is another very important reason, that is, Lu Xi feels very sorry for the gold ingots that she uses as bargaining chips.
Compared to the dazzling gems, beautiful energy blocks and spiritual stones with special properties that she received, she, as a mortal, actually prefers these tangible gold and silver objects.
Especially those round, plump and chubby gold ingots, it would be painful to take a few more away.
The three tall and short people at the table responded to Lu Xi's words, and then exchanged a tacit look with each other, and they instantly understood each other's thoughts.
Since it has been decided that this is the last round, they plan to plan it carefully to save Lu Xi's depressed mood.
I'm going to start paying attention to the cards Lu Xi needs, and play them to her to help her win the game so that she can be happier.
However, things are unpredictable and plans always fail to keep up with changes.
Before they had the chance to put this heartwarming "little trick" into action, Lu Xi miraculously got another great hand. This sudden surprise stunned everyone at the table.
Especially the person involved, Lu Xi, was completely confused. She couldn't help but start to wonder in her mind: Is this because he doesn't want her to end it so hastily and is trying to keep her?
Luck is really playing tricks on her. It's simply playing with her mentality!
Lu Xi even began to wonder in her heart whether her prayer just now was too pious and had really disturbed the peace of some great god.
Then the great god was playing...
Thinking of this, Lu Xi quickly stopped thinking about it any further. Forget it, forget it. She didn't dare to think about it anymore, otherwise people might come to cause trouble.
Since she has just vowed that she doesn't want to play anymore, it's time to withdraw. The words have been spoken and it's hard to take them back. She has always been a person who keeps her word, so of course she means it seriously.
After receiving the things from the three people, Lu Xi stood up decisively holding her small box, looked at the three people in front of her with a firm gaze, and said, "Okay, if you three still want to continue playing, stay here and continue. I will leave first. Bye."
After saying this, she didn't wait for the remaining three people to respond, she just turned around and left without any hesitation.
If they try to persuade me to stay a little longer, I might actually be tempted and stay in this game.
But Lu Xi was more worried. If she stayed at the poker table any longer and her luck was "used up" in advance, she didn't know what bad luck would be waiting for her in the next period of time.
After all, overdraft is generally not a good thing.
Lu Xi was really a little scared. She didn't want to fall flat on the road, didn't want to be hit by a flower pot when passing by, didn't want to choke when drinking cold water, and didn't want to be hit by a dump truck that came from nowhere...
Therefore, even if she cannot die, it is better not to try this mysterious, uncertain and unpredictable thing lightly.
You won't die, but it will be painful and uncomfortable, and you'll easily get scared and scare yourself.
After Lu Xi put the small box into the space, she went straight to the kitchen. On this lingering rainy day, of course she had to eat something hot to comfort her soul.
She planned to cook herself a bowl of steaming wontons to satisfy her appetite.
The boxes of wontons placed in the space were made by her own hands when she had nothing to do. They had thin skin and large fillings and tasted very delicious.
Last time, the whole family made buns and dumplings together, and also tried to make crystal clear steamed dumplings.
Unfortunately, she didn’t make the wonton skin, so she wasn’t able to make her favorite wontons.
So, Lu Xi took advantage of a free afternoon and asked Cang Wuya to help. Together they wrapped a lot of different kinds of snacks and stored them in the space so that they could eat them whenever they wanted.
When the water just started to bubble happily in the pot, Lu Xi was standing in front of the stove with a box full of wontons in her hand, ready to pour them into the boiling water.
At this moment, a sudden knock on the door interrupted her action - the system had quietly come to the door at some point and was peeking around.
After attracting Lu Xi's attention, he said in a slightly coquettish tone: "My dear host, I want to have a bowl too."
Lu Xi's hand holding the box froze in mid-air for an instant. She turned her head silently and looked at the system that was peeking at the door and trying to be cute, and she couldn't help but frowned.
She said helplessly: "Can you speak more normally? Your words really affect your image as a cool boy."
After saying that, he sighed softly, as if he was somewhat helpless about the sudden behavior of the system.
This kind of delicate and artificial accent with a hint of coquettishness was really disgusting to Lu Xi, and she couldn't stand it.
The smiling expression on the system's face froze, and then it performed an expression-disappearing trick on the spot.
He stood up straight, his handsome face full of woodenness. He opened his mouth and said to Lu Xi:
"Please help me make a bowl of wontons and a sour soup filling. Add more seaweed and small shrimps. The small shrimps should be roasted. Don't use white vinegar for the sour soup. Don't use too much soy sauce. Add more sesame oil. Thank you!"
They actually said that his speech was abnormal. He is such a handsome little boy, what's wrong with him being familiar with some cute things?
Can't a cool-looking guy act like a spoiled child? I didn't eat your rice... Well, it seems that I can't complain about this, he has always eaten the rice from Lu Xi's family.
