Chapter 21

Lu Wu’s relationship with his family became much better after that night.

Ever since then, Lu Wu officially tried to accept this ‘new’ family of his and truly regarded himself as a member of this family.

However, even so, Lu Wu still couldn’t accept the cards that Lu Haikong gave him that night.

Uh…. or maybe he should say that he couldn’t take both of it.

Lu Wu gave back Lee Ruyu the card that had 500,000 yuan in it.

Although Lu Wu wanted it really badly, he knew deep inside that there was still a barrier that he still hasn’t overcome.

Plus, Lu Wu knew that his father didn’t make much money and it had taken him a long time to be able to save up such a huge amount of money. Lu Haikong already had plans of buying a house with this money and Lu Wu definitely couldn’t use this money.

But, Lu Wu did keep the other card that only had a hundred thousand yuan.

Lu Haikong’s impromptu supper had cost him five hundred yuan. If he didn’t keep this card, Lu Wu wouldn’t have enough money for Skeleton’s ingredients. He had no other choice but to take Lu Haikong’s ‘private savings’.

Well, Lu Wu was not an idiot. He wouldn’t just take the money without informing them.

Which was why he told Lee Ruyu about this when he returned the other card.

When Lee Ruyu heard that Lu Haikong still had such a huge amount of money in his private savings, there was a weird expression on her face. But when compared to Lu Haikong’s expression when he heard Lu Wu telling this to Lee Ruyu, Lu HaiKong’s expression was worse.

Lu Wu was rushing for work that morning and wasn’t aware of all these. After getting Lee Ruyu’s permission, he quickly left the house.

When he came back home later that day, he realised that he got a new keyboard.

Then, he went and told Lee Ruyu that he didn’t need a new one as the old one was still working well enough.

When Lu Wu was talking about it, he couldn’t figure out why his dad was glaring at him fiercely like a hungry wolf.

But as soon as Lee Ruyu stomped on his foot, Lu Haikong immediately turned from a wolf into a dog.

Lu Wu especially loved the interaction between his parents. It was lovely and warm.

It had to be admitted that although Lu Haikong didn’t look very reliable, he did have some sort of charm.

As soon as he came back home, the atmosphere became harmonious. Besides, Lu Wu really liked being surrounded by this feeling.

Well, of course, the thing that he liked the most in the house would be the hundred thousand yuan from his dad’s private savings.

With this extra money, Lu Wu no longer had to worry about his financial status.

At least for now, he had enough money to get the ingredients for (Skeleton’s Training Manual 2.0). Lu Wu no longer had to get any part-time job.

In this case, Lu Wu would have extra time at night that he could spare.

For someone who was from an ordinary family, Lu Wu wanted to make use of this summer to enhance Skeleton’s quality. The only thing that he could depend on now was his hard work.

However, there weren’t many things that he could work hard for.

The senior had already given him all the materials from the special class.

Lu Wu actually already had a list of training methods to train Skeleton for it to obtain special skills, but because Skeleton’s quality still wasn’t good enough, all these methods were practically useless.

He had no other choice. This fella’s condition was too weak. If Lu Wu tried training it with the methods listed, Skeleton would fall onto the ground within seconds.

Therefore, enhancing Skeleton’s quality was his main priority and there were only two ways to do so.

The first one was to accumulate more information regarding a summoned beast trainer and the other was to nurture more intimacy between Skeleton and him.

Lu Wu had two ways to obtain more information about summoned beast trainers — either at the grocery store or the library.

Right, the library!

Although Lu Wu could not go to the school’s library, it was not the only library in the entire Quancheng City.

Since Lu Wu didn’t need to work for extra money at night, he’d have time to study at the public library.

Speaking of which, Pang Tutu followed him to the library as well.

But Lu Wu was sure that this girl didn’t even read a single book when she was at the library.

All she did was sleep, play with her piglet and occasionally just stare at him.

Lu Wu couldn’t help but shake his head when he saw Pang Tutu being so relaxed about her situation.

Well, even though Lu Wu didn’t agree with what Pang Tutu was doing, Lu Wu was still envious of her and her luck.

Pang Tutu was lucky enough to have a childhood friend like him. Even if she wasn’t motivated or diligent for her future, she still had Lu Wu who could help her.

But Lu Wu was not as lucky as her.

没有开挂的发小,又不愿意靠平平无奇的长相吃饭,他只能努力开挂了,让自己飞起来再带着这丫头一起飞.

He didn’t have a childhood friend with cheats like her and he didn’t want to rely on his “average-looking face”. The only thing that he could do now was to hard and carry this little girl with him.

But the thing that Lu Wu was most envious about wasn’t the fact that Pang Tutu had such a good childhood friend like him.

It was the intimate relationship that Pang Tutu had with her piglet.

Why was it so easy for her to nurture intimacy with her summoned beast?

They eat, sleep and even shower together which naturally helped grow the intimacy between them. It had already been a month and this piglet’s skill was almost completely awakened.

As for Lu Wu.

For the entire month during this summer break, in order to nurture intimacy between him and Skeleton, he had used every single method that he could think of.

But none of them seemed to work.

Out of desperation, he even tried a few methods that he rejected before this.

However, all he got from it were a pair of dark circles. As for Skeleton? It was still staring at Lu Wu with that blur and dumb expression.

It pissed him off!

He almost tore Skeleton into pieces.

Although Lu Wu made no progress with nurturing intimacy with Skeleton, the past month of summer break wasn’t a complete waste of time.

Up till now, Skeleton had already gone through four stewing sessions.

Four sessions that cost him 5200 yuan would definitely make quite a difference from before.

It grew about 10 cm taller and was now about 1.5 metres.

Skeleton’s overall condition improved as well. Its walking speed was almost as fast as Lu Wu’s. Skeleton only had one last session left now and its quality would definitely enhance much more after the final one..

However, Lu Wu did not plan on using (Skeleton’s Training Manual 2.0) for the last session.

This was because, for the past one month, Lu Wu had been reading through countless numbers of books and his knowledge of Skeleton had been greatly increased.

The result from all the reading and research was directly reflected upon the changes made on Skeleton’s Training Manual.

Now, Lu Wu had already changed the simple and boring (Skeleton’s Training Manual 2.0) into an upgraded version 3.0.

This was much better than the 2.0 and was more suitable for Skeleton in its current condition.

Lu Wu was very confident that as long as he used the 3.0 version while completing Skeleton’s last session, Skeleton’s quality would be enhanced tremendously and it might even raise Skeleton’s quality to an Iron level.

But the only problem now was that 3.0 was much more expensive than 2.0. He would at least need 50,000 yuan.

Regarding this, Lu Wu had already found someone who would pay for this.
