Su Wenqi’s first half of life was full of ups and downs. Abandoned by his parents as a child and raised in an orphanage, every time life took a turn for the better, an unexpected disaster would follow. With a reclusive personality, he never made friends and was never adopted. After working hard to get into college, he died in an accident. In his final moments, his life flashed before his eyes like a lantern show, and he couldn’t help but sigh: Why has good luck never fallen upon me?
By a twist of fate, he arrived in the future interstellar world. Here, he was fortunate enough to become a welfare recipient, receiving 3,000 interstellar coins every month. On the very first day he went out to buy groceries, he won the grand prize: a gaming capsule.
That was how he discovered the world of games. In this era, holographic games—a concept merely imagined in his own time—had become fully realized. Among the options, he was immediately drawn to the trending holographic game, Huaxia. Based on thousands of years of ancient Chinese history, this game stood out from the typical interstellar gunfights and mecha battles by branding itself as a faithful reproduction of ancient China.
After Su Wenqi arrived in this world, his luck seemed to reach peak levels. “Ding! Congratulations on obtaining a rare treasure chest! You have a chance to find precious materials~” Looking at the treasure chest he had dug out with two swings of a hoe, Su Wenqi fell into silence. Is this really allowed? Can you dig this stuff up in a vegetable patch? “Ding! Congratulations on obtaining the rare material [Tianyi Xuanjing]!” Looking at the golden, unknown stone, Su Wenqi was shocked into silence. Having seen the world-wide chat messages, he knew this was a valuable item. How could this kind of luck actually fall on me? He was truly stunned.
Wen Shaochuan was mature for his age. He began training at his family’s company at seventeen and took over the enterprise upon coming of age, tripling the company’s market value in just three years. Defying the opposition of shareholders, he resolutely partnered with the government to invest in Huaxia. As one of the investors, he naturally had to lead by example and experience the game himself when it launched.
However, he never expected that his luck in the game would be so abysmal! His gear refinement failed with a 99.99% success rate; his treasure chests always contained grey, trash materials; and he never once looted good equipment from dungeon bosses… At first, players questioned the fairness of the game, until they witnessed Wen Shaochuan’s “black ghost” constitution. Well… who would intentionally give themselves such a low-luck stat? Hahaha.
After finishing his work, Wen Shaochuan logged in to rest and enjoy the pastoral scenery in the newbie village, when his attention was caught by a newcomer. The other person wore the newbie outfit a simple green set that, against his refined temperament, looked as soft and sweet as the xueminiang (snow skin mooncake) his mother had sent over days ago.
And this person dug up a rare treasure chest with a single hoe, opening it to find materials for a legendary divine weapon that were impossible to find.
He was a little dazed. Did it have to be this outrageous???
Ever since Su Wenqi acquired the cooking skill, his probability of crafting golden-tier items increased significantly. Furthermore, his culinary talent began to shine: the meals at his restaurant were sold out the moment they were listed, and even the City Lord, after tasting his cooking, was amazed and frequented his restaurant multiple times. With his superb culinary skills, he successfully grasped the stomach of a certain “foodie.”
