Chapter 429 Once upon a time
As the pill took her mouth, Chen Luoluo's injuries were visibly recovering rapidly. The pain in her body faded away, and her sanity gradually returned.
She raised her head and looked at Lin Zhao with a dazed look in her eyes.
Lin Zhao placed her on the stone bed in the cave.
Chen Luoluo's eyes were still dazed, and she could only hear Lin Zhao speaking to her in the voice she hated the most.
"Before the training, I also assumed the worst about you. After all, I am such a bad person. No matter how someone treats me, I will definitely return the treatment double."
To put it bluntly, Lin Zhao asked herself if she had any scruples. In her eyes, no matter whether a person was a man or a woman, young or old, if they had done something, they should pay the same price for doing it.
"Over the years, I have dealt with many evil thoughts from other worlds, and I have probably figured out some things."
After all, Lin Zhao still has Sima Ling's relics in his hands.
She vaguely glimpsed something from those things.
Perhaps the evil thoughts from the other world plunder not only the resources and foundation of the plane and the invisible power of faith, but also the visible people of faith.
If she guessed correctly, every host of the evil thoughts from another world was once the master of destiny of a plane or a small world.
In Chen Luoluo's words, he is the protagonist.
Lin Zhao continued, "You have paid the price in the process of continuous transactions with them. It is impossible for you to reap the rewards all the time."
Chen Luoluo's expression changed, as if she had thought of something, but she was unwilling to think in that direction.
"What do you mean by 'evil thoughts from another world'? What does that mean? I don't understand. I don't understand anything! I am the protagonist, and you are just the heroine whose luck I took away and you have been marginalized and become the supporting actress. What are you talking about?"
Lin Zhao understood, but she still pointed out sharply and directly: "Were you like this in the past?"
Chen Luoluo slapped Lin Zhao in the face.
But Lin Zhao caught the slap.
"I think this reaction has given me the answer. While you get those so-called things you want, you also gradually become the opposite of your original self in the original plane."
Chen Luoluo's hands dropped weakly.
"No, no, I am like this, I..."
Facing Lin Zhao's all-seeing eyes, she, who still had memories of the past, could not deny it.
She wasn't like that.
She came from an era called the 21st century. In that relatively enlightened modern society, she was a small white-collar worker.
The happiest thing for Chen Luoluo every day is to go to work and make money, and then buy some things to decorate her little home. She likes to fill the feeling of fulfilling her life with her own efforts. During holidays, she and her boyfriend will go to the largest vegetable market nearby to pick fresh fruits. She prefers strawberries.
In that city where every inch of land is worth a lot of money, they seldom bought anything at first. But later when they had money and better treatment, buying this thing became a habit for her and her boyfriend.
Later, she also dismantled the small family bit by bit. Because of the system, she no longer needed to work so hard.
She only needs to open a golden finger, and countless people will buy better and bigger houses for her just to make her smile.
She no longer had to go out early and come back late, working like a slave, just to buy a basket of fresh, sour strawberries from the market.
For her, happiness, beauty, extravagance and debauchery are easy to achieve by using the system to steal other people's luck. She likes the feeling of being born superior because of the system without having to struggle.
She gradually began to despise herself who had worked hard for life and future.
This contempt gradually deepened and turned into hatred for one's past.
This feeling is transferred to the heroine of each world.
She didn't want to think about the possibilities behind Lin Zhao's words.
She didn't want to taste the sour taste of strawberries again.
Lin Zhao said: "Chen Luoluo, in fact, it's not just us who have had our luck taken away, but also you in the past."
"You're talking nonsense!" Chen Luoluo clenched her teeth. "What do you know? You don't know anything, what are you talking about? I go to get off work at 8 am and can't get off work until 8 pm. I work so hard for my boss that I finally got to a middle-level position before I was 30 years old. But those guys can be promoted to a higher level as soon as they come! Is this what you call me the master of luck?!"
Lin Zhao thought for a moment: "I really want to verify a point. You were able to live in this plane with the help of the system and plunder the luck of others. So now..."
Lin Zhao controlled the Phoenix Luck and, following the method he had learned from the other person when he burned the evil thoughts from the other world, he extracted a strand of his Phoenix Luck and placed it on Chen Luoluo.
"What if you lose the evil thoughts of the other world and gain the luck of others?"
Chen Luoluo only felt her body warm and her eyes became blurry.
When she regained consciousness, she raised her head from the desk.
What caught my eye was my boyfriend’s handsome face, which had just shed its youthfulness.
"Sister Luoluo, it's time to get off work. Why are you still so dedicated? Come on, I'll take you home."
Chen Luoluo stared blankly at the young man in front of her.
This was her first love, but he was actually five years younger than her. When she first entered the workplace, he was still a college student who had just been admitted to university.
They walked together for four years.
Now, he was twenty-two years old, and I was twenty-seven years old when I was promoted to middle management.
It was also the day when the system came to her.
However, the system did not appear until the night of that day, her boyfriend did not die in a car accident while trying to buy her a birthday cake that night, and she did not completely collapse due to future work pressure and other people's calculations and choose to cooperate with the system completely.
They ordered a small birthday cake, and the boyfriend smiled and made a wish: "I hope Sister Luoluo will always be happy and healthy and live to be 100 years old!"
Chen Luoluo was both angry and amused: "Is it your birthday or mine?"
The young man had a refreshing and clean smile, and his puppy eyes were filled with her shadow.
"I want to give you this gift because it's Sister Luoluo's birthday. And this, you said you would agree to my proposal as long as I can hold on until the legal age to get married."
He took out a diamond ring and said, "I saw you looking at it at the booth for a long time, so I decided to buy it."
Chen Luoluo's eyes fell on the diamond ring. When her eyes were dazzled by the light of the diamond ring, she slapped the young man on the forehead and said, "This ring is worth ten years of my salary. If you can't afford it, forget it. Don't buy a fake one!"
The young man rubbed his head aggrievedly, rubbed her shoulder, hugged her without any explanation, held her hand, and put the ring on Chen Luoluo's finger.
Not too big, not too small, just right.
"I had it custom made." The young man's voice was muffled. "This is fake. Does Sister Luo Luo agree?"
Chen Luoluo looked at the ring and snorted, "You've already put it on me, how can I refuse?"
"I was originally planning to pick up the ring tonight, but the people over there said that it was finished ahead of schedule." The young man said, "Sister Luoluo, this is not fake. The owner of that jewelry store is my mother."
Chen Luoluo: “…”
She remembered what her boyfriend was holding in his hand before he died.
So that night, did her boyfriend die on the road with the cake and engagement ring he customized for her?
"Sister Luoluo, why are you crying? Hey, hey, hey, don't cry. I said I don't know how to comfort girls."
Chen Luoluo cried and hit him: "What are you talking about! What do you mean it's your family's business! Didn't you say that your family is so poor that you still want me to support you?!"
"I'm just afraid that you won't want me... After all, Sister Luoluo looks like she wants to be a strong woman. If you knew that I'm a rich young man, would you think that I would hinder your career... Don't cry..."
Chen Luoluo hugged him and burst into tears.
Later, she continued to live according to her own ideas. Her boyfriend, or husband, was very supportive of her career and his attitude did not change even after she had a child.
Seeing her abilities, her parents-in-law handed over the family business to her to manage.
When he was about to pass away in his later years, Chen Luoluo realized that he had risen from a timid worker at the bottom of society to where he is today through his own efforts and luck.
The next moment, everything in front of my eyes was blurry again.
After the trance, the figure in front of me was clear.
Lin Zhao looked at her and said, "My luck should have allowed you to see the past you were supposed to have, but your luck was taken away by the evil thoughts from another world. I don't know what happened to you before and after. I only know that in the past you were supposed to have, you were the protagonist of that world."
Chen Luoluo looked at her quietly.
