When Liu Chen finished washing up and came out, only his aunt was still watching "My Savage Mother-in-Law II" on TV with great spirit in the living room.
Fine then...
Given his aunt's current state, watching this drama was quite fitting.
After applying the various facial creams produced by the system, his aunt, who had developed some pregnancy spots due to pregnancy, now had a spotless face, except for her natural moles and complexion.
Even dullness was gone.
While his aunt was still immersed in the TV plot, Liu Chen quickly slipped into the small bedroom, closed the door, locked it, turned off the light, and got into bed in the dark, relying on the moonlight from outside.
As it had gotten warmer these past two days, his mother had changed his bedding to a cotton quilt. Though not as light as a down quilt, it felt reassuring. httpδ:/m.kuAisugg.nět
'Lucky Draw'

'Received a Primary Sales Boost Sticker, obtain a 3% increase in current customer traffic within 24 hours of use'
???
Seeing the Sales Boost Sticker flash by in the rewards, Liu Chen's eyes, which had been half-closed due to drowsiness, instantly widened.
After all a thousand lottery tickets were used, Liu Chen began to search for the Sales Boost Stickers that had flashed by earlier.
While searching, Liu Chen also noticed that after his half-year of lucky draws, the system's temporary storage seemed to have accumulated quite a lot of items...
However, now that he was living at home, the source of his money couldn't be explained. The facial creams and other items kept at home were all stated to have been bought with his previous prize money. Fortunately, Liu Fang had never suspected anything.
And his aunt didn't usually pay much attention to skincare, so he was able to get by.
"I really wish I could leave C City soon, so I could use my money openly."
Having said that, Liu Chen took out a Sales Boost Sticker from the system and intended to stick it on his mother, but found that the sticker floated back to him.
Upon closer inspection, the sticker also had usage instructions:
Only the host can stick it within the store for immediate effect.
'...'
I'm a senior in high school now, big brother! How can a high schooler have time to stick stickers in a store!!
Feeling frustrated, but as soon as he looked at the countless small grids in the system's temporary storage, Liu Chen's mood immediately brightened.
"Goodnight, System."

April 5th,
After school, Liu Chen did not take a taxi home alone as usual. Instead, he got into the Mercedes Benz driven by Mi Zhuzhu's father to pick him up.
Sitting in the back seat of the leather upholstery, Liu Chen began to ponder.
Why do wealthy people in this era love buying Mercedes-Benz? Are BMWs and Porsches not as appealing?
It felt like since he was reborn, besides his family's BYD, the most frequently encountered car brand was Mercedes-Benz.
Since high school students get out of class at nine o'clock, and the road towards the third ring road outside the city was not heavily trafficked, Mr. Mi drove at a speed of 100 mph. Including time spent waiting at traffic lights, it only took twelve minutes to reach the entrance of the underground garage at Phoenix City residential area.
The barrier at the garage entrance lifted, and Mr. Mi slowly drove the car down into the garage and parked in his spot.
Following Mr. Mi out of the underground parking lot, they swiped their cards to enter the fire escape door, and then entered the elevator. It had been a while since he was last here. The wooden boards originally put up to prevent scratches during renovation had been removed, and the brand-new elevator reflected Liu Chen's profile.
The elevator reached the 19th floor. Mi Zhuzhu and her father got out, while Liu Chen remained in the elevator, going up one more floor to the 20th floor.
Yes, the floor directly below Liu Chen's home that Mi Zhuzhu's father had bought...
The elevator doors opened, and as Liu Chen stepped out, he saw two potted money trees placed in the corridor...
This was something Liu Fang would definitely do.
Taking out the key his mother had given him that morning from his backpack, this was the first time Liu Chen was opening the door to a new house by himself.
Despite already possessing a net worth of tens of millions, he could still feel his heart pounding faster.
He inserted the key and opened the door. The small crystal chandelier in the living room had half its bulbs lit, and "My Savage Mother-in-Law II" was playing on the television, still in Mandarin.
His mother and aunt were wearing face masks, both pairs of eyes intently focused on the 55-inch LCD TV on the TV stand.
Wang Dong came out of the kitchen with a plate of sliced apples and washed grapes. Seeing Liu Chen standing at the door, he smiled and invited him to eat at the coffee table.
Liu Chen nodded and said "Okay," then bent down to open the shoe cabinet beside the door and chose a pair of open-toed slippers from the two pairs of pink slippers.
As he walked towards the living room, he passed by the kitchen and surprisingly saw Chen Long wearing an apron and simmering soup inside...
Alright, he had gotten used to these two men appearing at home recently.
Sitting down on the sofa, Liu Chen took out the fetal stabilizing milk rewarded by the system from his backpack and handed it to his aunt.
"Here, Auntie, bought it today."
Hu Min, her masked face tilting, looked at the carton of pure milk in Liu Chen's hand and quickly took it. For some reason, every time she drank this milk, she felt comfortable all over. At first, she thought it was because the baby in her belly liked to drink milk.
But later, when Wang Dong bought a box of pure milk of this brand, it didn't taste right when she drank it. So, she asked Chen Chen to buy her another brand of milk.
Then she realized that she didn't like milk in general, but liked the milk Chen Chen gave her. After much thought, she attributed this to the baby in her belly liking Chen Chen!
"Gulp gulp"
Hu Min drank the 250ml carton of pure milk in three or four gulps through the straw. After finishing, she closed her eyes contentedly.
"I'm sleepy, sister-in-law, I'm going back to sleep~"
Saying that, Wang Dong quickly came over to help Hu Min out of Liu Chen's security door, saying as he walked, "My precious, please slow down!"
