61 Weird ways of Luck-Trade
It was a deep night and the moon was absent from the dome of heaven, nevertheless, the stars shone with ever-brilliant light and the sky was as limitless as ever.
Atop a small home's roof were two people, one a black-haired young boy and another a black-haired woman — Yue Li and Han Li. His head resting on her lap.
A golden screen rippled and beamed in front of them. Han Li looked at it with a thoughtful gaze.
[Luck Trade!] It said.
He and his mother were alone on their rooftop and once again, they were trading another thing with the system. Both of their hearts were stirring.
It was especially a bit scary for Yue Li since she had always seen it as a very scary and weighty power to be in the hands of someone like her. Of course, since knowing it was not all godly and just trade, that had changed.
Her son took Yue Li's hands into his and gently clicked the Luck Trade option with it.

"Ah, our Sacred Coins are thinning!" Yue Li exclaimed. Han Li also looked at it but he was focused more on some other things. The System didn't show any of his weapons like the Life Sword. Just like the Life Great Dao, he had never really completely understood this magical screen either. He wanted to figure out what it truly was in this life.
"Well, don't worry about it, and wish for a Water Spring Fruit." Money wouldn't be an issue for a long time, Pang Li hadn't left with his money, and taking over his shop wouldn't be hard.
He just hadn't claimed it.
Yue Li closed her eyes and without any questions, muttered silently in her heart: 'I wish I get a Water Spring Fruit'
The system screen shifted again.
[Assets you can exchange for the low-level Water Dao magical resource; Water Spring Fruit — Blue Rising Vulgar Lotus. Accept Trade? Y/N]
Han Li's eyes shined and he clicked 'Yes' using Yue Li's hands.
She opened her eyes and smiled at him as his gaze shifted to the blue lotus in his hands. No, there was no longer such a flower in his hand — it had vanished.
They both waited in anticipation, their eyes glimmering slightly. How will they obtain the object this time?
Han Li looked at the fruit. 'Water Spring Fruit'. The fruit looked like a blue apple, but its stems were spring-like and it had this blue shine. Some of the rare Magical Resources that people could identify at one glance.
"Isn't this too much for an apology?" Han Li asked as he looked at the fruit. A free meal didn't really go well with his stomach.
Even though he had paid the system its price, it seemed a bit far-fetched for someone to give him this for free. "Well, I can now buy low-level Resources simply. Uh... I am not allowed to trade behind the scenes but giving one as an apology is fine," Li Ming said as he looked up at the sky.
Han Li followed his gaze and found nothing in particular.
"Thanks for the present," he calmly asked, "Now can I close the door?"
"Well, Yes, since my goal is fulfilled."
"Then you shouldn't play around here and go back to your home." with a final warning, Han Li's door slammed shut.
Li Ming looked at the closed door, blinked, chuckled, and then left the area.
Inside Han Li's home, Yue Li looked at the blue fruit in his hand and asked curiously, "Who was that?"
"He is that Li Ming kid who was supposed to marry Liyue."
Yue Li's face brightened. "Ah! No wonder! No wonder he came all the way here to give you a fruit."
Han Li's eyebrow twitched in irritation. "Why?"
"Wasn't that the person who said he was enlightened?" Yue Li couldn't hold back a chuckle, "The person who said he was meant for men and not women. The Gay guy?"
Han Li looked at the fruit in his hand weirdly. Gay...
He sighed. To think that he would be courted by a man someday... In all 500 years of his past life, something like that hadn't happened.
Shaking his head with a chuckle, he said, "All kinds of people in the world. I thought for a second he was eyeing my ugly mom. Didn't have to soil my hand with blood."
Yue Li and Han Li headed back to their rooftops as they spoke about the event in laughter. "He must be trying to impress you for now to slowly gain your trust."
Even Han Li had small creeps at that. He had become a Young Master stealing a woman last week and now he was a young woman who had taken the fancy of a young master?
He blinked irritatedly. No matter how old and experienced, that made him disgruntled. He wanted no man near him, nor his women.
But still, he was far more intrigued about the System than the small thoughts of a small man. This was a fruit that Li Ming had worked hard to earn and the System still influenced his thoughts to make him give it up. And had he not used the system, would he still have come?
And why did Li Ming buy the exact fruit that he was vying for?
As they reached back the roof and he once again laid his head down on her lap, he couldn't help but look at the fruit with a scrutinizing gaze.
Yue Li giggled after staying silent for a while and Han Li pushed the complicated thoughts to the back of his mind. He finally had a resource to improve his body.
That was one down the list.
