After Transmigrating as the "Green Tea" Fake Heiress, I Got My Happy Ending with the Real Heiress - Chapter 15
Chapter 15
Current Name: Wen Yun
Current Survival Time: 87 hours
Green Tea Value: 20 points
The next day, as soon as Wen Yun woke up, she habitually opened the attribute panel.
She had gone to bed early yesterday and hadn’t had time to convert the Green Tea Value into life-extending items. After the survival time was automatically deducted after midnight, the remaining time was dangerously low.
“I wish you were just a system for redeemable items,” Wen Yun couldn’t help but grumble.
“Host, in a situation like this, you can absolutely convert only 10 points of Green Tea Value for a life-extending item,” the System suggested. “That way, you’ll have one chance to draw a Mystery Item.”
“Easier said than done. Is Green Tea Value so easy to get?” Wen Yun clicked her tongue. “Even if I transmigrated as the Green Tea Female Support, I can’t possibly use ‘Green Tea Talk’ in every sentence! That would be too weird!”
Based on her initial understanding of the “Green Tea Persona,” Green Tea Talk should be reserved for specific events. The way she had spoken, reciting from the template the last two days, was a very stiff, low-level surface-level ‘tea.’
A few times might be fine, but speaking like that consistently would definitely be repulsive. Even as a rich family’s daughter, she couldn’t court death so blatantly.
“Why must you hoard so much survival time before you’re willing to draw items?” the System asked, confused. “Time is only deducted after midnight every day. Even if you only have 24 hours left, you have plenty of time to produce Green Tea Talk and accumulate enough survival time, just like the day you arrived.”
“It’s simple. Survival time is like savings, even more important than savings. Without it, I can’t live in this world,” Wen Yun answered without hesitation. “Also, when survival time isn’t abundant and you know nothing about the prize pool details, drawing cards is the equivalent of being a spendthrift.”
She actually had a question brewing in her mind: Why is this System so eager for her to draw Mystery Items? Could the number of times a host draws Mystery Items be linked to the System’s performance metrics?
Faced with her comments, the System fell silent.
Wen Yun glanced at the time. She was about to convert all the Green Tea Value into life-extending cards, as before, when she suddenly heard the System say: “Host’s request has passed review. Mystery Item Prize Pool details have been unlocked!”
A detailed pop-up then completely plastered itself across Wen Yun’s view.
Wen Yun unhappily clicked her tongue, but when she browsed the items in the pool, she was shamefully tempted.
“Piano Grade 10 Limited-Time Experience Card”, “Upper-Class Ballroom Social Expert Limited-Time Experience Card”, “Refreshing & Mind-Clearing 3-Hour Special Effect Black Tea”, “I Can Completely Understand This Math Class!”…
There were abilities the original owner had mastered but she hadn’t inherited, as well as some oddly named but seemingly practical enhancement effects and items.
However, because the prize pool contained too many types of items, the test of the card-drawer’s luck was quite severe.
After all, while some items were practical, they might not be immediately useful and would need to be saved for the right opportunity.
“Are you willing to spend 10 points of Green Tea Value to draw a Mystery Item now?” the System asked.
Wen Yun hesitated for a few seconds, then first used 10 points of Green Tea Value to redeem a life-extending card, extending her survival time to 117 hours.
“Then I’ll draw once,” she said, and then clicked on the Mystery Item button.
The drawing process wasn’t flashy at all. The dark gray card face with a question mark quickly flipped over, revealing its true appearance.
“Congratulations! Host has drawn the “Bling Bling Charmer Effect” item!” the System’s notification sounded.
Wen Yun: ???
“What in the world is this?!” she was extremely shocked. “What situation would this even be used for?”
“It will be useful very soon, Host,” the System said. “This item has no target restriction. Anyone who sees the target will be instantly charmed and have their opinion changed, with a significant boost in goodwill. The effect lasts for 5 seconds.”
“What good is a mere 5 seconds…” Wen Yun’s complaint was cut short when she suddenly remembered the upcoming first day of school. She instantly thought of a suitable use and immediately changed her tone, “You’re right, it will be useful very soon!”
Father and Mother Wen were out attending meetings again today. Wen Yun put away the new item and got up to find Ruan Yu for their exercise.
Today, Ruan Yu had indeed clipped her bangs back, revealing a clean forehead, and was wearing a white tracksuit, waiting for her in the living room early.
Seeing that there was still plenty of time, Wen Yun asked, “Qiqi won’t be here until around ten. Shall we go out for a walk?”
She knew the protagonist was more accustomed to outdoor morning exercises. Having lived in the countryside for so many years, the protagonist would probably prefer being close to nature over cold gym facilities.
This time, Ruan Yu didn’t refuse. After greeting the butler, the two left, following the small path lined with expensive flowers and plants and jogging slowly toward the mountain near the villa.
“I actually still prefer outdoor exercise the most,” Wen Yun emphasized while running. “The air in the mountains is so fresh in the morning!”
“Me too,” Ruan Yu agreed with a smile.
The Wen house was located in a villa area on a mountain. Although the Wen family funded most of the mountain landscaping, the nearby mountain still belonged to the community. During their morning run, they occasionally saw other residents of the villa area exercising on the mountain.
Some residents recognized the original owner. Wen Yun had forgotten to review the relevant memories before going out and was called over when passing them, forced to stop and greet them, and also introduce Ruan Yu.
Nine out of ten residents who exercised on this mountain were wealthy, so face-brushing in advance was necessary.
However, perhaps because Ruan Yu’s current skin tone didn’t look like a city person’s, the residents who ran into them couldn’t help but look her over a few times.
This made alarm bells ring in Wen Yun’s mind. To be safe, after running into another resident, and as soon as they walked away, she immediately said to Ruan Yu, “If you mind, we can change our exercise location.”
“I don’t mind,” Ruan Yu smiled and shook her head. “I suppose this is just the daily life of being a wealthy family’s daughter, right?”
Wen Yun was stunned: “Uh…?”
“Since it’s daily life, I should face it positively,” Ruan Yu said, then deliberately posed in a running stance. “Shall we continue, Yunyun?”
“Sure, let’s continue then!” Wen Yun regained her composure and quickly agreed, leading her to run forward.
The mountain path wasn’t rugged. The two ran for a while and walked for a while, greeting two more residents exercising on the mountain along the way. They only returned to the Wen villa to shower when the sun started to feel hot.
After breakfast, the two went back to their respective rooms.
Ruan Yu pulled out test papers and started working on problems, while Wen Yun contacted Lin Qiqi.
“Xiao Yu and I are both home now. What time will you arrive? Can you give me an exact time?”
Cute Sweetheart Qiqi: “Soon, soon. I promise to be there before ten! Won’t flake out!”
Despite her repeated guarantees, it wasn’t until 9:57 AM that Wen Yun heard the doorbell downstairs.
She rushed downstairs. As she descended the stairs, she saw that Ruan Yu was already sitting in the living room, facing Lin Qiqi, who was still trying to catch her breath.
“Would Miss Lin like some Oolong tea today?” the butler asked.
“No, no need. I’ll be leaving soon, don’t trouble yourself!” Lin Qiqi smoothed her sweat-dampened hair, smiled at Ruan Yu, took a file envelope from her bag, and handed it over. “These are the text evidence of what I said in the group, and my self-written account. I also checked on other anonymous posts, but the platform refused to provide information about the speakers.”
“Which group?” Ruan Yu asked while opening the file.
“Uh… it’s a small private group created by people in our class. Anonymous posting and using side accounts aren’t restricted, and no teachers are in it, so people dare to say anything in there.”
Wen Yun quietly walked closer, sat down beside Ruan Yu, and looked at the colored-print file in her hand.
“And this is my apology gift,” Lin Qiqi took out an exquisite gift box and placed it on the coffee table. “The latest model of a ten-tenths new Reya women’s watch, worth 16,888 yuan. Please accept it as compensation for emotional distress!”
“I don’t want your compensation for emotional distress.” Ruan Yu didn’t even glance at the gift box. She quickly skimmed the self-written account and said softly, “Please apologize by your real name in that group, and this matter will be considered closed.”
Lin Qiqi froze for a full five seconds before recovering. She frantically waved her hands: “No, no, absolutely not! How can I do that!”
“Why not?” Ruan Yu looked at her, puzzled.
“I led both waves of rumors and indirectly smeared your reputation!” Lin Qiqi explained rapidly. “Even if I have to apologize, I should apologize in the main group!”
Ruan Yu then turned her gaze to Wen Yun and said with a troubled expression: “Yunyun, I’ve never encountered this before. I can’t decide. Should Miss Lin apologize in the main group?”
Wen Yun’s heart skipped a beat as Ruan Yu looked at her. She vaguely sensed that this was the resolution Ruan Yu truly wanted.
Ruan Yu was not “unable to decide;” she was perfectly clear! The reason she asked in such an innocent and naive tone was likely a test of her and Lin Qiqi!
