Chapter 21: Bumper Harvest:



Despite being portrayed as a villainous rich second-generation, Lu Yu wasn't particularly wealthy himself.

Lu Mingyuan's company was a listed company with a market value of tens of billions, but the real major shareholders numbered eight.

Each held shares ranging from 6% to 18%, with the rest owned by shareholders.

Lu Mingyuan was the largest shareholder and chairman and CEO of Lida, with the largest share of 18%.

Eighteen percent of tens of billions was about two billion.

The usable liquid funds were even less.

Although a group's market value didn't represent the shareholders' bank deposits, the shareholders still received decent salaries and significant dividends.

But Lu Yu was just a rich second-generation, a recent university graduate!

The economic power of the Lu family was not in his hands.

Lu Mingyuan providing him with a free car and a free villa was already quite good.

As for pocket money?

If not for major purchases, a few million at most.

In other words, with the two million Lu Yu received from Lu Mingyuan yesterday, he had just over five million in total.

Buying this bracelet would leave him with less than five million...

The owner didn't mind all this and quickly wrapped the bracelet in an exquisite jewelry box.

Ten thousand turned fifty thousand.

Although he appeared reluctant on the surface, his heart was already bursting with joy.

His shop's annual net income was almost that much money.

If not sold now, then when?

Seeing this scene, Bai Qingzhi showed an expectant look.

Her friends also proudly raised their chins towards Qin Sisi, making a provocative gesture.

But after a glance, Lu Yu spoke up directly. "Boss, just give me the bracelet, no need to box it!"

"Sure!"

The boss had no reason to disagree.

After handing the bracelet to Lu Yu, he still put a packaging box in the handbag he gave to Lu Yu.

Lu Yu took it!

[Ding! Successfully seizing the protagonist's opportunity, gained 500 destiny points.]

As expected, the system prompt.

Although this bracelet didn't yield as much reward as the Great Celestial Divination Technique, 500 points weren't insignificant.

Walking directly to Qin Sisi, Lu Yu handed her the packaging box.

"Here!"

"Huh?"

Qin Sisi took the jewelry box, looking puzzled.

"What's wrong? Lift up your left hand!" Qin Sisi was even more confused and subconsciously raised her left hand.

Lu Yu slipped the bracelet onto her wrist.

Surprisingly, it fits perfectly.

"Is this... for me?"

Clearly, Lu Yu's change in character was too sudden, and the transition time was too short!

She hadn't adapted to her role yet.

"Of course, didn't you say you wanted to be my girlfriend yesterday? What's wrong? Regretting it already?"

"No... I'm not!"

Looking at the bracelet on her wrist, Qin Sisi was almost moved to tears of joy.

She happily hugged the jewelry box to her chest.

"Thank you, Brother Yu!"

"You're welcome!"

The intimate interaction between the two left Bai Qingzhi and her friends completely stunned in place.

Before anyone could react, Bai Qingzhi covered her face and left the jewelry store in tears.

The women exchanged glances and quickly followed.

And at that moment!

[Ding! Bai Qingzhi's mentality has changed, gaining 300 destiny points.]

[Ding! Qin Sisi's mentality has changed, gaining 200 destiny points.]

[Ding! Zeng Zhen's mentality has changed, gaining...]

[Ding! Li Xiao Man's mentality has changed...]

A series of system prompts appeared in Lu Yu's mind, almost making him burst into laughter.

Just this wave alone earned him 800 destiny points.

Added the previous 800 points, he now had 1600 points. 1600 destiny points, according to the ratio of 1 point = 100,000, was equivalent to one hundred and sixty million Xia currency.

Not to mention purchasing other skills that money couldn't buy.

So, it was indeed a bumper harvest.

Watching the backs of the people leaving, Lu Yu couldn't help but touch his chin.

Based on the situation of gaining destiny points these times, the importance of characters to the plot, and the strength of their mental fluctuations, would all affect the amount of destiny points obtained.

For example, Bai Qingzhi was the female lead, so she clearly gave him more destiny points than Qin Sisi and her friends.

Moreover, the damage she just suffered was obviously greater than the rejection she faced last night.

So, only 100 points last night and 300 points just now?

Not bad, not bad!

The more brutal the treatment, the more destiny points he would earn.

It seemed that his path as a villain would become more and more interesting in the future? "Let's go, let's go somewhere else!"

"Brother Yu, how about... we return this bracelet?"

Walking out of the jewelry store, Qin Sisi asked tentatively.

Curious, Lu Yu asked, "Return it? Why?"

"Didn't you say this thing is worth at most three hundred thousand?" Qin Sisi said sadly, "There's no need to spend an extra two hundred thousand for me..."

Hearing this, Lu Yu couldn't help but smile.

"Hehe, you're overthinking it. Forget about two hundred thousand. Even if it's two million or twenty million, I wouldn't feel distressed. Besides, this bracelet is worth more than fifty thousand..."

"Huh? Is that so?" Qin Sisi was stunned.

Was this bracelet extraordinary, or did the jewelry store owner misjudge it?

Was Lu Yu bluffing the owner earlier?

"Why would I lie to you? Let's go, it won't be long before you understand its value." Lu Yu said mysteriously.

With the Great Celestial Divination Technique, he was now a true Feng Shui master.

Any treasure with special powers couldn't escape his eyes.

Just like this bracelet.

Did Lu Yu just casually enter a jewelry store?

Did something picked out by the female lead be that simple?

How naive.
