Chapter 14: Realistic Gold Used to Bring Good Luck to Oneself (Fake Gold)
As Yun Qing was about to leave with her thermos, she was stopped by Lu Shaoan, who had just arrived home.
Yun Qing was a little surprised, "Brother, why are you home so early?"
Lu Shaoan said helplessly, "Mom called me and said you've been working hard these past few days, so she asked me, your unfilial son, to deliver your meals."
Yun Qing quickly replied, "I'm not tired. Aren't you busy with work?"
"Mom has already asked, so I have to go no matter how busy I am! Otherwise, I'll really become an unfilial son."
He took the thermos from Yun Qing's hand and said, "Then I'll go to the hospital first. If you're hungry, you can eat first. Don't wait for me."
Yun Qing followed him outside, saying, "I'll go with you."
Lu Shaoan turned around and pushed her back, "I'll go. You've been tired these past few days, so just get some rest."
"I'm not tired."
"Be good! Otherwise, Mom will scold me later."
Yun Qing: ...I'm really not tired!
I just want to keep an eye on Yan Chen, why is it so difficult?
Yunqing was so worried that she lost her appetite.
Yun Qing was eager to see if Lu Shaoan would say anything about Lu Miaomiao or Yan Chen when he finally returned. However, she found that his expression was a bit strange, and his eyes were full of regret as he looked at her.
Yun Qing sensed something was wrong and couldn't help but ask, "Brother, what happened?"
She wondered if she had been going to the hospital frequently lately, but hadn't had any tests done, so it was unlikely that she would suddenly be diagnosed with a serious illness.
So why do you look so regretful and disappointed?
Lu Shaoan hesitated for a moment, then said, "Yan Chen is awake."
Upon hearing this, Yun Qing was stunned. Yan Chen had woken up?
In the story, Yan Chen only recovered and woke up quickly because of Lu Miaomiao's special ability, right? And he felt better every time Lu Miaomiao touched him inappropriately.
Lu Miaomiao isn't touching Yan Chen anymore, so why did he suddenly wake up? And so much earlier than in the original storyline?
Seeing Yun Qing staring blankly, Lu Shaoan assumed she was regretting her decision and couldn't help but sigh.
Initially, everyone thought Yan Chen wouldn't wake up, so canceling the marriage was a good thing. But now that Yan Chen has woken up, things are different.
In this circle, it's hard to find a man more outstanding than Yan Chen.
Lu Miaomiao ended up getting a good deal.
Yunqing's performance needed to fit Lu Yunqing's character, and since her mind was already a bit confused, she looked preoccupied, told Lu Shaoan, and went upstairs to her room.
[System, what's going on? Is the plot fake?]
The system confirmed: "That's exactly how the novel's plot goes."
Yun Qing frowned in thought.
Yan Chen woke up earlier than usual, even without the female lead's cheat-like abilities.
Does that mean the female lead's cheat ability might not be helpful to him at all, or even have the opposite effect?
She carefully recalled the novel's plot, in which Lu Miaomiao seemed to be touching Yan Chen inappropriately every day, and there was no time when she didn't take advantage of him, so there was no comparison.
The so-called intimate behavior between Lu Miaomiao and Yan Chen that could help his health improve might just mean that his health was already improving and had nothing to do with Lu Miaomiao taking advantage of him.
It has nothing to do with Lu Miaomiao's cheat ability!
Oh, it seems there is still a connection, but it's probably not a good one.
Yun Qing thought about the description of the female protagonist's "golden finger" in the novel's plot again, which said that husband and wife are one and share the same fortune.
She originally thought that the so-called sharing of fortune only meant that Lu Miaomiao could share Yan Chen's fortune, and the fortune value increased by the golden finger was the amount of fortune that Lu Miaomiao could share.
It makes sense that the closer the relationship between husband and wife, the more good fortune they can share.
But if Lu Miaomiao's cheat ability is harmful to Yan Chen, then could it be that this is not a sharing of fortune at all, but rather Lu Miaomiao unilaterally absorbing Yan Chen's fortune?
Yun Qing couldn't help but gasp.
Isn't this supposed to be a sweet romance novel? Why does it feel so unsettling upon closer inspection?
But the more Yun Qing thought about it, the more she felt that she might have guessed correctly.
The novel begins by describing Yan Chen as a business prodigy, exceptionally capable, and invincible in the business world, even surpassing seasoned veterans.
However, after waking up from the car accident, his career did not go so smoothly. In the process of the male supporting character fighting with him for the family property, he suffered setbacks one after another.
Moreover, it's not that there's a problem with his abilities; it's just that he's always unlucky and inexplicably encounters unforeseen events.
Fortunately, the female lead gently comforted him, stayed by his side, and even said that she was lucky and would definitely bring him good luck. After that, she was inseparable from him.
In the end, the two worked together and finally defeated the male supporting character, and their relationship became even sweeter.
When Yun Qing first received the plot, she didn't think there was anything wrong with it. The male lead was going through some setbacks, which was just the perfect opportunity for the relationship between the male and female leads to heat up further, wasn't it?
But thinking about it now, it makes me uneasy.
As the male and female leads grow more and more affectionate, Lu Miaomiao will surely absorb more and more luck. In the end, will Yan Chen be so unlucky that he gets hit by a flowerpot and killed as soon as he goes out?
Does Lu Miaomiao know what her "golden finger" is?
Even if you didn't know at first, after seeing Yan Chen inexplicably having a series of misfortunes while she remained lucky and unaffected, you should be able to guess that this was not a matter of shared luck at all, right?
But in the end, she and Yan Chen lived happily ever after!
Yun Qing was a little restless. She picked up a glass of cold water from the bedside table, drank it all in one gulp, and then calmed down.
Don't panic! In the end, Yan Chen is still perfectly fine.
Now that Lu Miaomiao isn't taking advantage of Yan Chen all the time like in the novel, his situation should be better.
Yun Qing hoped that she was overthinking things.
However, after consulting the system, it only told her, "Playing the villainous female supporting character well is the greatest help you can give the male lead."
Yun Qing pursed her lips and silently gazed at the bright sky outside the window.
Yes! So what if she guessed it? There's nothing she can do.
She is just a villainous supporting character, and can only be a villainous supporting character.
The system felt a pang of pity seeing her staring blankly out the window. It wanted to say something, but ultimately swallowed its words.
They simply quietly added an extra plate of spirit fruit crystal cake to increase the reward for this task.
As soon as it finished scratching, Yun Qing immediately revived on the spot.
Forget it! There's no point in thinking about it so much.
Wasn't it said that Yan Chen's soul would be damaged if the small world collapsed?
If she plays the villainous supporting character well and prevents the small world from collapsing, then she's actually helping Yan Chen.
That's all she can do.
System: ...I suspect you're deliberately feigning helplessness to trick me into giving you a reward!

After Yan Chen woke up, he was discharged from the hospital.
He recovered quickly and, while resting, also began handling some company affairs at home to help Yan Mingxuan share some of the pressure.
When Lu Miaomiao carried a bowl of soup into the room, Yan Chen was lying on the bed, flipping through the documents in his hands.
Looking at his profile as he worked intently, Lu Miaomiao felt her heart flutter again.
However, Yan Chen coldly replied, "Let the servants do this kind of thing from now on."
Lu Miaomiao's expression changed slightly. She knew that Yan Chen was not concerned about her, but rather refusing to let her set foot in his territory.
