46: Chapter 46: Three Lottery Draws! Let's begin!
The night deepened. In the master bedroom of Shanshui Manor Villa No. 1, only a dim wall lamp was lit.
Zhou Wenying stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window wrapped in a bathrobe, water still dripping from her damp hair tips. She gazed at the starry night sky outside, her heart beating uncontrollably fast.
"Nervous?" Jiang Jing's voice came from behind her, accompanied by his warm chest pressing against her back.
Zhou Wenying shook her head gently, her hair brushing against Jiang Jing's chin. "It just feels... so unreal." She turned around and wrapped her arms around Jiang Jing's neck. "Before today, I was just an ordinary college student..."
Jiang Jing lowered his head and kissed her lips, blocking the rest of her words.
The kiss was gentle and lingering. Zhou Wenying's body soon softened, and the belt of her bathrobe had come undone at some point.
"What about now? Do you still feel it's unreal?" Jiang Jing's voice held a hint of a smile.
Zhou Wenying shook her head, blushing, and took the initiative to stand on her tiptoes to kiss him again. When her fingertips touched his firm and powerful abdominal muscles, she couldn't help but gasp softly.
"So impatient?" Jiang Jing chuckled softly and swept her up into his arms.
Zhou Wenying let out a small cry, then giggled and hugged his neck tightly. "Brother Jing... I want to make you happy..."
The mattress sank slightly as Zhou Wenying was gently placed in the center. Her bathrobe had completely come undone, resembling a blooming flower in the dim light.
(Content omitted...)
As time passed minute by minute, Zhou Wenying's consciousness became somewhat blurred. Her throat had gone hoarse, and her whole body felt as soft as water, leaving her without even the strength to lift her hand.
Yet Jiang Jing remained full of energy, as if he would never tire.
Zhou Wenying had originally thought she could make Jiang Jing obsessed with her, unable to leave her.
Based on the current trend, it was she who couldn't leave Jiang Jing...
[Zhou Wenying Favorability + 1] (Current Favorability 93)
[Obtained Draw Count x1]
[Current Draw Count: 3]
"Tsk, earned another draw." Jiang Jing was in a pleasant mood, reaching out to brush the hair stuck to her cheek away.
Zhou Wenying hummed groggily, her eyelids too heavy to lift, but she still subconsciously nuzzled into his embrace, muttering indistinctly: "Brother... spare me..."
Jiang Jing chuckled and pinched her cheek. "Wasn't it you who said you wanted to make me unable to leave you? Is that all?"
Zhou Wenying didn't even have the strength to retort; she could only punch him weakly before falling completely asleep.
"What a monster." In the last moment before falling into darkness, this was the only thought circling in her mind.
Jiang Jing looked at the girl who had already fallen asleep in his arms, a satisfied smile curling the corners of his lips. He kissed her forehead gently and got up to head to the bathroom.
Warm water washed away the sweat on his body as Jiang Jing summoned the system panel.
His assets were now approaching 1 billion, and if he bought Zhou Wenying another house tomorrow, he should be able to unlock the System Mall.
Thinking of this, he was in a great mood and decided to use the draw opportunity he had just obtained.
"Start drawing."
In his mind, a huge golden roulette wheel slowly emerged.
The roulette wheel was densely packed with various dazzling rewards, each grid emitting an alluring glow.
When the pointer finally stopped, a deep purple light erupted from the roulette wheel.
[Congratulations to the host for obtaining: Master-level Business Talent]
In an instant, Jiang Jing felt as if some kind of strange energy had been injected into his brain.
Countless business knowledge surged into his consciousness like a tide: the operating laws of financial markets, exquisite techniques of corporate management, psychological games in business negotiations...
This knowledge was not a simple infusion of information, but as profound as if he had personally experienced decades of ups and downs in the business world.
He closed his eyes, feeling this wonderful change.
Now he could easily see through whether a company's financial statements were falsified, predict the rise and fall cycles of a certain industry, and even construct complex business plans in his mind.
This ability was not limited to theoretical knowledge, but also included a kind of almost intuitive business sense.
"Interesting..." Jiang Jing muttered to himself.
Without pausing, he immediately started the second draw.
The roulette wheel spun again, and this time the pointer stopped on a silver-white grid.
[Congratulations to the host for obtaining: God-level Driving Skills]
A feeling like an electric current instantly flowed through his entire body.
Jiang Jing felt his nervous system being recalibrated and his muscle memory reshaped.
Countless driving scenes flashed through his mind like a carousel: extreme cornering on F1 tracks, precise drifting on mountain roads on a rainy night, speeding through a hail of bullets...
He subconsciously moved his fingers, as if he could feel the steering wheel in his palm.
This ability was not just an improvement in driving skills, but also included a kind of near-precognitive perception.
Already possessing a foundation of Master-level martial arts, coupled with God-level Driving Skills, Jiang Jing's reaction speed and adaptability had reached an incredibly abnormal level.
Now, even with his eyes closed, he could perceive the spatial conditions within several meters, capable of making the most precise maneuvers in the nick of time.
"This is even more valuable than the supercar itself." Jiang Jing chuckled. He was already imagining the scene of himself driving that lamborghini veneno.
For the last draw, the speed of the roulette wheel's rotation slowed down significantly. When the pointer finally stopped, a card shimmering with dark golden light slowly emerged.
[Congratulations to the host for obtaining item: Precognition Card]
[After use, can foresee major events occurring within the next 72 hours]
Jiang Jing's pupils contracted slightly; the preciousness of this card far exceeded his expectations.
Unlike other skills or items, this involved peeking into the future, and its value was immeasurable.
The card materialized in his hand, feeling cold and smooth to the touch, with mysterious light patterns flowing on its surface. Jiang Jing could feel the strange energy contained within it, as if the long river of time had been compressed within this square inch.
He was not in a hurry to use it, but instead examined the card carefully.
Foreseeing the future sounded wonderful, but one must use it where it counts.
Activating it at a critical moment might avoid a disaster or seize a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
After storing the card in the system space, Jiang Jing turned to look at the sleeping Zhou Wenying.
Under the moonlight, her profile looked exceptionally serene. Jiang Jing reached out and gently stroked her cheek, his fingertips feeling the delicate, warm sensation.
"I'll give you a surprise tomorrow." He said in a low voice, the corners of his mouth curling up slightly.
Thinking that the unlock conditions for the System Mall were about to be met, Jiang Jing's mood became even more pleasant. 1 billion in funds was within reach, and those legendary black technologies, genetic serums, and hyper-era equipment would all be within his grasp.
