"Red! Gold!"
Tang You saw Ah Qing return, and she brought back Xiaolan, who she had previously boasted about in the WeChat group, to the dormitory. Her eyes lit up, and she hurried to borrow the little fox from Ah Qing, ready to use the power of the Household Guardian to battle the evil source G Fat.
"Here we go again."
Mo Yiqing saw Tang You getting into a frenzy and couldn't help but complain to Ah Qing and Lingren.
They knew their self-proclaimed Cyber Celestial Khan roommate was pretty good at games, excelling from the computer end to the mobile end with few defeats. But after living together for three years...
They all knew Tang You, a seemingly omnipotent Cyber Celestial Khan in war games flying planes, sniping, and going to space, would go mad whenever it came to in-game lottery probabilities.
No way.
In the lives of Ah Qing, Mo Yiqing, or Lingren, none of them could find anyone with luck worse than Tang You's big unlucky streak.
As long as there's a guaranteed minimum prize in the lottery, Tang You would always hit the minimum prize.
Whenever she gets the minimum prize with even one fewer draw, Tang You would kiss everyone in the dormitory.
Tang You's big unlucky streak was evident to all. Mo Yiqing even advised her to ask the consumer association if she was being targeted by the game company.
But if you say she's unlucky, she gets unhappy.
She'd mutter something about buying skins being a disgrace, claiming she'd rather not have them than pay for disgrace.
Then she'd ramble about G Fat deserving to die, and how people blessed with good fortune wouldn't understand.
[No...don't be like this, even though I know I'm unlucky, but you can't say it, quick! Give me some gold so I can regain my pride!—Pretending to be addicted to opening boxes, Tang You was already sweating heavily, internally praying to God and Buddha, wanting to show off to her roommates; unfortunately, she had opened over three hundred boxes and hadn't found a single gold item.]

"......"
Ansheng looked at the big sister hugging him and made a cute sound:
"Sis, why don't you stop opening them? CS boxes seem pretty expensive, you've already spent over ten thousand, wouldn't it be better to give me the cash, so I can earn your Wish Power and have some spending money?"
Ansheng hasn't played CSGO, but even he knows the skins and items in that game are very expensive.
In terms of luck, Ansheng has quite a bit of confidence.
"I've softened them up...."
Tang You felt her roommates' gazes, and though her heart was bleeding, she still feigned calmness, holding the little fox in her arms as she hit the box-opening button with its paw.
The first box revealed a blue-grade gun.
A question mark hung on Ansheng's forehead; the confident expression on his face instantly changed to one of doubt.
The second box, third, fourth.....were all filled with blue or white grade items.
"Ah! Looks like even the Household Guardian can't help!" Tang You held the little fox's paw, opened ten more boxes yet didn't see anything substantial appear, and sighed.
"......"
At this moment, the smile on Ansheng's face completely disappeared.
"Although I am just a little fox, isn't this too much to humiliate me like this? Big Unlucky Streak!"
Angered by the box-opening, Ansheng pushed away Tang You's hand that was holding him, then seized the moment before Tang You could react, quickly operated the mouse, directly clicked on a key, and opened the box on the screen.
"Click, click...."
Numerous guns scrolled across the screen until finally, the window stopped on a golden round egg.
"?"
Just as Tang You was preparing to return the fox, seeing the golden egg on the screen made her freeze in place.
The probability of getting a golden egg in this game is a pitiful 0.026 or so.
Tang You had only seen pictures of the golden egg on video websites.
In reality, she hadn't even seen a red-grade item, let alone a golden one.
"Ching—"
A knife resembling ivory appeared on the computer display, with silver-black paint mimicking marble texture on the blade. The serrated back revealed a metallic luster unique to metal.
[Serrated Claw Knife · Doppler (Brand New)]
"Humph!"
Once the gold appeared, Ansheng snorted, his confident expression returning to his face.
However, Tang You upon seeing the gold didn't show a frenzied joyful expression; instead, she skillfully opened the game market to check the price of the [Serrated Claw Knife].
[Serrated Claw Knife · Doppler: 13,000]
The dazed expression Tang You maintained was instantly replaced by a gleam in her eyes when she saw the knife's price.
She placed the little fox on the ground, then from sitting cross-legged she jumped onto the sofa.
"Holy——"
Tang You sprang from the fabric sofa, using all her strength to shout loudly:
"I actually got gold in CSGO! In a game without a guaranteed price, I got gold! Damn it!"
"Tonight's dinner and entertainment are all on me!"
Compared to the money she spent on the game, the value of the Serrated Claw Knife was just a drop in the bucket.
But what Tang You cared about wasn't the price; it was getting the gold!
The foolish group members regularly flaunted their own loot box winnings in front of her, and Tang You had always held a grudge but couldn't draw any gold.
She even felt that the reason her bust size qualified for an E rating was because there was always pent-up anger inflating her chest.
Today, she intends to retaliate against the group members who've flaunted their wins!

[Wish Power +1]
".......Though I've gained Wish Power and proven that Tang You is the one with the non-blessed traits, not me, still, why don't I feel happy?"
With the price of the Serrated Claw Knife reaching 13,000, the smile on the little fox's face seemed to transfer entirely to Tang You's.
13,000...
How much tea leaf would that be? Wouldn't the pot be spinning until it sparks?
"I know you, you are Master Fox...Master Fox!"
While Ansheng was pondering whether he should agree to cooperate with the golden-edged hedgehog to open a casino and make some money to balance his unsettled mood, the Qinling panda cub that Ansheng has long ignored, hugged his feet with its little paws, rolling around on the floor until it bumped into his arm.
The panda cub paused, looked up at Ansheng, revealing an expression of sudden realization:
"Boss Fat Cat said, when you meet Master Fox, absolutely under no circumstances mention the weapons room on the top floor of the teaching building. I absolutely won't tell Master Fox, hmm...my lips are sealed!"
"I absolutely will not surrender to Master Fox...." The panda cub looked at Master Fox, speaking softly to itself.
Ansheng: "......"
