Chapter 6, Do You Believe in Luck

Dark Small Medium Large Original Scroll to Bottom

I let out a hum and turned to look at him: "I have heard a saying that no matter what you wish to obtain, you must pay a price! I believe there are no good things in this world that come without reason... Moreover, I don't believe a single word of what you said. What changing luck? If you could change a person's luck, you might as well become God."

I just saw it very clearly! The space under the table is empty, there is nothing there! Where did he take out such a large box from!

It is still a sight of being completely obsessed

Upon hearing these words, a surge of anger suddenly flared up within me

Even the law will forgive those who commit crimes due to mental illness

"Don't you wish to improve your luck?" The tall, thin man added pitifully after.

Then, he suddenly pulled out a large wooden box from under the table. It startled me even more!

I have already decided to leave, and I have also decided that as soon as I return, I will find the real estate agent who introduced me and punch out his front teeth

"Did you not say that you calculated there would be no calamity today? Then did you calculate whether I might fall from the building today?" I gazed at him coldly

The tall, slender man had taken a shiny silver object from a small box in his hand, holding it between his fingers and smiling at me. In an extremely professional tone, he quickly introduced it: "Please take a look, this is our company's main product, which we call the Luck Adjustment Device. By wearing it, you will be able to fully control your life, filling it with beauty from now on! Do you wish to achieve the career of your dreams? Do you want to work thirty years less? By wearing it, you will be able to fully control your life, filling it with beauty from now on! Do you wish to achieve the career of your dreams? Do you want to work thirty years less? Do you want to marry the beautiful woman you have long admired? Do you want to become the center of attention? By wearing our company's product, all your beautiful dreams will become possible!"

I quickly turned and walked towards him, clenching my fists as I went, ready to knock out his front teeth as well

This person is a madman

"To gain as much as you desire, you must be willing to pay the corresponding price..." The tall, thin man suddenly revealed a mysterious smile: "Mr. Chen Yang... please do not be anxious. Could you first answer me a question..." The tall, thin man looked at me and asked with a smile: "Do you believe that there is such a thing as 'luck' in this world?"

The tall and slender man has adopted a standard posture for a corporate white-collar professional engaged in business negotiations: "Mr. Chen Yang, first of all, I need to introduce to you that our company's main business is not residential leasing... Please do not rush to stand up; as I mentioned, there are indeed houses available, and the conditions will certainly meet your satisfaction. However, before renting, I need to clarify a few points to you."

I am no longer prepared to waste words with him and turned to walk towards the exit of the rooftop

Because this bastard said in a sarcastic tone: "Chen Yang, haven't your parents taught you to respect others when they are speaking?"

You fool, put me down quickly! I have a fear of heights! He clung to my arm like an octopus, his legs flailing wildly like a frog.

I set him down, stared at him, and coldly said: "Listen, I don't care who you are or what you want to sell me, I am not interested. I am leaving now"

Ever since a certain individual uttered such words and received a punch that knocked out a mouthful of teeth, no one has dared to mock me with such remarks again

It's haunting again

I felt a bit confused for a moment and swallowed hard: "Wait... wait a minute... are you saying that if I just purchase one of your products, I can become a member, and you will help me solve my housing problem? What kind of organization are you? Even national civil servants no longer get allocated housing, yet your members still have housing issues addressed?" I struggled to digest what he had just said: "Are you saying that if I just purchase one of your products, I can become a member, and you will help me solve my housing problem? What kind of organization are you? Even national civil servants no longer get allocated housing, yet your members still have housing issues addressed? What are you..." I looked at him with suspicion: "You aren't a base and - map - book organization developing members in China, are you?"

I still have a skeptical expression: "How can something that cannot be seen or touched possibly exist?"

Just with this one sentence, I was actually stopped in my tracks

First of all, as I mentioned earlier, the main business of our company is not real estate, but rather another type of product. In simple terms, once you purchase this product from our company, you will become a member of our company. The benefits of being a member are quite substantial, including many preferential services. Of course, the housing you requested can also be considered part of the member benefits, and everything is negotiable

I forcefully rubbed my face and finally confirmed one thing: I have encountered a fraudster

This guy's appearance really resembles that of a friend of mine who is involved in pyramid schemes

Of course not. The tall, thin man replied with a smile, "Our company's business projects are environmentally friendly and harmless. Our purpose is to benefit society and serve the general public. We are absolutely not what you referred to as a terrorist organization."

However, just after taking two steps, the tall, thin man behind suddenly shouted something.

"Wait... wait..." The tall, thin man repeatedly shook his hands, quickly jumping back: "Look, you shouldn't come over trying to hit me... I've checked carefully, and I won't encounter any misfortune today, so I won't be beaten. If you don't want to hurt yourself, it's best not to engage with the book."

As I watched him open one small Type 1 box after another, I felt an overwhelming sense of despair. Fortunately, he finally sighed, and with a bitter smile, as if speaking to himself, said: "Ah, I never expected my luck to be so poor, to actually be assigned such a low-level membership quota."

"Look!" The tall, slender man snapped his fingers and said with a smile, "I also do not believe in any religion, and I think there is no existence of a deity in this world. However, the concept of luck that I mentioned does indeed exist—although it is something we cannot see or touch"

I bent my body and swiftly darted to his side, grabbing the collar of his shirt and lifting him up. I strode to the edge of the rooftop and extended my hand, pushing his body out.

This sentence struck at the most painful part of my heart immediately

This is the first thought that came to my mind. Although I am not a good person, I would not bother to hold a grudge against the offense of a madman

The tall, thin man ignored my astonished expression and had already opened the first layer of the box. Inside was a slightly smaller box, and then he opened the second layer, followed closely by the third layer, and the fourth layer...

I lost both my parents at a young age, and indeed, I did not receive parental guidance. As a result, I often faced ridicule from others during my student years. However, after I began my martial arts training, no one dared to speak such words to me anymore

I was taken aback for a moment, then frowned and said: "Are you a missionary sent by some religion to promote your faith? If so, I regret to inform you that I am an atheist; I do not believe in any religion, I only believe in myself"

He opened his eyes, which were as big as soybeans, blinking at me with a pitiful expression and said, "Well... I haven't calculated it, so it should be fine." He dared not look down and repeatedly pleaded, "Alright, please let me down. I really have acrophobia. I'm not afraid that you will drop me because I know you won't... but I am afraid that I might be scared into having a heart attack. I have a very serious heart condition... I calculated that today I wouldn't encounter any bloodshed, but I can't guarantee that I won't die from a heart attack... but I am afraid that I might be scared into having a heart attack. I have a very serious heart condition... I calculated that today I wouldn't encounter any bloodshed, but I can't guarantee that I won't die from a heart attack... a heart attack doesn't involve blood!"

That guy immediately started screaming, his cries resembling those of a wild cat calling for spring in the middle of a summer night. I had never imagined in my life that a man's scream could be more piercing and at a higher decibel than that of a woman

Luck

Of course it exists! The tall, thin man met my gaze and said decisively: "Air! Isn't it also invisible and intangible? Yet everyone knows of air's existence! This is common knowledge!"

It seems that he was so excited while speaking that he forgot himself, to the extent that saliva splattered onto my face, and he did not even notice it

Moreover, he merely mocked me with a single remark
