Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

By the time Cui Si and Li Leyi got home, they ended up eating instant noodles.

Cui Si had intended to buy Li Leyi a big meal to cheer him up. Never would she have expected to have such an encounter. To make up for things, Cui Si promised that she would buy him a good meal the next night.

Cui Si slept exceptionally soundly that night. She no longer had to worry about food, clothes, or her father’s treatment.

Most importantly, she had also gotten back at that scumbag Chen Lin and his sugar momma, Zhang Cuihua.

By the time Cui Si woke up the next morning, it was already quite late and the sun was already shining down on her bed. Without proper thought, she picked up a book and rushed into the toilet.

[Ding dong! Detected that the host is reading the Bible. Reward: Minor Skill of Foresight.]

Minor Skill of Foresight? Cui Si looked at the book in her hand frantically. How could she have forgotten about the system? She had actually picked up the Bible and obtained Minor Skill of Foresight. But what exactly was it?

[Due to the host’s stupidity, the Minor Skill of Foresight instruction manual has been included.]

[Minor Skill of Foresight comes from the Bible. It can be used up to three times a day. After the host activates the skill, the words spoken will come true within 30 seconds.]

[Note: Minor Skill of Foresight cannot be used to predict gambling activities such as lotteries.]

Cui Si’s eyes widened. This was simply a life-saving weapon. She could just use this skill to take down anyone in the future. Wouldn’t she be invincible?

As expected of the most awesome system in the world.

[It’s good that the silly host knows. The system is always able to provide the best.]

Cui Si frowned. She had only said a few words of praise and the system was already elated?

Cui Si went out to shop and saw a new building that seemed to have just opened for sale.

Thinking about how her parents were still living in a shabby old neighborhood, she decided that she would buy them a new home with the money she now had.

Cui Si entered the sales office. But the salesmen only raised their heads to take a look at her before they resumed looking at their phones. No one paid any attention to Cui Si. To them, a person like Cui Si would never be able to buy a house.

After waiting for a long time, no one came over to entertain her. “Isn’t there anyone who can talk to me about real estate?”

The salesmen seemed to have gone deaf as they completely ignored her.

At this moment, a man and a woman walked in from outside. The woman wore heavy makeup while the man had a potbelly. One look and one could tell that he was a nouveau riche.

At the sight of the new customers, the salesmen sprung into action and fought over each other to entertain them.

Cui Si was so angry that she almost passed out. She had been there for a while yet no one had bothered about her. But as soon as the couple entered, the salesmen surrounded them.

“Hey, are you guys blind? Can’t you see this living person here? I was here first. Can’t you introduce me to the real estate market first?”

[Ding dong! Minor Skill of Foresight has been activated. All salesmen of Yunxi Real Estate have lost their sight for one minute.]

Cui Si heard the system notification and immediately covered her mouth. What was going on? Her casual words had activated the minor skill?

“Ah! My eyes, why can’t I see anymore?”

“Mine too, my vision is all black.”

The salesmen immediately started panicking as they touched their eyes in fear. They were fine just a moment ago. How did they suddenly lose their sight?

The couple who had just entered was also shocked as they hugged each other tightly.

“I can see, I’m not blind.”

“I can see too, I can see too!”

Eventually, the salesmen regained their eyesight. When they saw the couple before them, they immediately put on their professional fake smiles.

As they walked over to the table, the woman with heavy makeup kept staring at Cui Si.

Cui Si felt uncomfortable from being stared at. She did not know this woman at all. Why was she always looking at her?

“Cui Si? You are Cui Si, right?”

When Cui Si heard the woman call out her name, she looked back at the woman in surprise.

The woman looked at Cui Si in surprise and covered her mouth as she giggled.

“Cui Si, I am Wang Xiaotian!”

Cui Si was even more surprised this time. The once tanned, thin, and malnourished Wang Xiaotian had become so beautiful.

When the fat man saw Cui Si, he started to look at her with desire in his eyes.

“Xiaotian, who is this beautiful lady?”

Wang Xiaotian also sensed it but she had absolute confidence in herself, so she didn’t care too much.

“This is Cui Si, my high school classmate!”

“Cui Si, this is my boyfriend, Jiang De. He owns a financial company and is currently planning to open a branch.”

Wang Xiaotian seemed like a proud hen when she introduced her boyfriend to Cui Si.

Jiang De quickly reached out his hand to shake Cui Si’s hand. But Cui Si simply looked at the greasy and fat hand and was reminded of Zhang Cuihua’s fat face. She immediately felt a little disgusted.

Jiang De’s hand hung awkwardly in the air. His face immediately turned sour as he snorted.. “What’s the matter? Is Miss Cui looking down on me?”
