The Delicate Darling with Her Rough Man

”If the system can absorb good luck, can it also absorb bad luck?”

”What would happen if it absorbed bad luck?”

Gu Jiaojiao and Leng Yuan asked.

The Main God thought for a moment. ”It would weaken its energy. It’s just like with people—good luck increases a person’s energy, while bad luck decreases it. The same goes for the system. When its energy is weakened and the host can’t absorb any more luck, it will leave the host to protect itself.”

”The moment the system leaves its host, I can intervene and take it away.”

So, not only did they need to make the system absorb bad luck, but they also had to make it voluntarily leave Xu Wenwan’s body.

”It seems the system can distinguish between good and bad luck.”

”That’s simple.” The Main God took out a pair of gloves as thin as cicada wings. ”When the time comes, just have the person with the bad luck wear these gloves. It will conceal their luck. This only conceals their luck, not the person themselves.”

”As for how to do it, that’s up to you.”

The Main God probably couldn’t stay for long. It left them with those words and departed in a hurry.

When Leng Yuan and Gu Jiaojiao woke up the next day, it all felt a little unreal, like a dream. But when Leng Yuan found a pair of gloves as thin as cicada wings in his hands, he knew last night had been real.

Gu Jiaojiao and Leng Yuan exchanged a look. Gu Jiaojiao fiddled with the gloves for a moment before speaking, ”Well now, it looks like the two of us have a mission.”

They needed to find an unlucky person.

In the blink of an eye, two more days passed, and the day of the commune’s teacher exam finally arrived.

That morning, Leng Yuan went to the County Town.

After getting Sweet Girl and Xiao Yang settled, Gu Jiaojiao also left the house.

She didn’t tell anyone and snuck off to the commune to take the exam by herself.

The main reason was that she was afraid of failing. If that happened and people found out, it would be too embarrassing.

Gu Jiaojiao had planned to walk to the commune, but she unexpectedly ran into Old Man Chen and his donkey cart halfway there. She ended up getting a ride directly to the commune.

She arrived relatively early, so after filling out some basic information, she was allowed to go in.

This time, the selection for teachers was open to the public. Anyone with a high school education or higher could take the exam.

As a result, there were quite a few people competing. This was especially true for the educated youth sent to the countryside, as many of them had high school diplomas. They made up the largest group, followed by the children from the villages who had also attended high school.

Whether they could pass or not, everyone wanted to give it a try. After all, it was a respectable job.

Still holding a grudge over a previous incident where Leng Yuan had deliberately targeted him over a bet involving pig butts, Yun Hao walked all the way to the commune, accompanied by other educated youth from their post.

Everyone came, except for Li Hongmei and one other person who had only graduated from middle school.

There were three examination rooms for the test, with only about twenty-odd people in each. Yun Hao and Chen Ruoyu were assigned to Examination Room 3. When the two of them walked in, they saw Gu Jiaojiao sitting inside and almost thought their eyes were playing tricks on them.

After a moment of silence, Chen Ruoyu took the initiative to walk up to her. ”Jiaojiao, you’re here for the exam too?”

Gu Jiaojiao answered honestly, ”Well, I don’t think I’m cut out for farming, so I came to try my luck. But I was afraid I wouldn’t pass, so I didn’t tell anyone.”

For a moment, Chen Ruoyu was at a loss for words.

With Gu Jiaojiao’s charming looks and her fair, delicate hands and face, it was impossible to imagine her holding a hoe and working the fields. At that moment, Chen Ruoyu found herself thinking it would be for the best if Gu Jiaojiao became a teacher. Otherwise, she had no idea how she would manage in the future.

”Do your best!”
