7: Chapter 7 My Sister and I

With a thought from Qi Yun, a massive spinning wheel appeared in the room.

【 Lucky Wheel! (Permanently Bound) 】

【 Function: Can be actively activated once daily for a random draw. 】

【 Prize quality from low to high: White (Common), Blue (Excellent), Purple (Rare), Gold (Legendary). 】

【 Cooldown Reset: 6:00 AM daily 】

The wheel was divided into four sections: 60% white, 30% blue, purple accounted for only 9%, and gold for a mere 1%!!

Looking at these damn odds, the corners of Qi Yun's mouth twitched.

Memories of the past, where every ten-pull only yielded the guaranteed minimum while everything else was just "blue skies and white clouds," resurfaced in his mind.

Most importantly, the Lucky Wheel didn't mention whether it had a pity system.

Just as he was speechless at the stomach-churning probability distribution chart, a fresh, pleasant, light fragrance suddenly drifted to the tip of his nose.

Immediately after, his back sank heavily as a warm, soft, and youthful body jumped onto him without warning.

Two slender yet strong arms wrapped familiarly around his neck, bringing a soft sensation.

"Qi Bao~ What are you spacing out about? Is there anything you need your little sister to help with?"

A vibrant, slightly mischievous voice sounded right next to his ear.

He sighed helplessly, reached back to firmly support the girl's supple thighs, and exerted a little force.

He took her off his back and gently placed her in front of him.

Although she mimicked her perfectly, Qi Yun determined in an instant: This was the older sister, Lin Wan, not the younger sister, Lin Le.

They were twin sisters; the older sister, Lin Wan, was gentle and quiet, while the younger sister, Lin Le, was lively and cheerful. Their personalities were clearly different.

In class, they would occasionally play tricks by swapping identities, enjoying it endlessly. But strangely, Qi Yun seemed to naturally possess a "twin identification radar" and had never failed.

"Lin Wan, you're pretending to be your sister again."

The Lin Wan in front of him instantly widened her eyes, covered her forehead, and puffed out her cheeks.

Even the tone of her anger was mimicked perfectly.

"Qi Bao, did you sleep until you got stupid? I am Lin Le, the younger sister, Lin Le."

As if to corroborate her words, another gentle, water-like voice filled with concern came from the side at the perfect moment: "What's wrong, Qi Yun? Are you bullying my sister again?"

Qi Yun turned his head to see another girl, whose appearance was identical to the one in front of him, walking over gracefully.

She wore the same gentle, slightly tolerant smile that the older sister, Lin Wan, usually had.

Both wore the same simple leaf clothing, and with their equally delicate faces, they were like reflections in a mirror.

Qi Yun didn't speak, just quietly looked at this "gentle sister" for two seconds.

Then he suddenly reached out and, taking her by surprise, lightly pinched her fair, smooth cheek and mischievously rubbed it.

"..."

The perfect "sister-style" smile on Lin Le's face instantly froze, and her eyes became as sharp as an unsheathed ice blade, sending a chill through one's heart.

"Qi Yun, what is the meaning of this?"

Facing this bone-chilling cold, Qi Yun did not retreat; instead, he smiled and took the opportunity to reach out and rub her hair.

This was a gesture he often did to Lin Le.

"If you want to fool me, you'll need to practice for another ten years."

The next moment, the icy coldness instantly melted away, and Lin Le returned to her usual lively smile.

"How boring!"

She stomped her feet, effectively admitting it.

"I've even successfully fooled Mom and Dad several times, so why does it never work on you even once?!"

Beside her, the older sister, Lin Wan, had also long since dropped her disguise, standing there gently, her eyes filled with deep curiosity and a hint of frustration.

The imitation game played by these twin sisters was truly a masterpiece, capable of fooling even their closest relatives, yet they failed repeatedly when it came to Qi Yun.

Haha, maybe it's because Lin Wan has that unique, reassuring scent, Qi Yun thought to himself.

Lin Le was soon distracted by the large wheel in front of Qi Yun.

"What is this? What is this?"

Qi Yun took the opportunity to explain: "This is a reward from the clan leaders blessing, the Lucky Wheel."

Hearing "clan leaders blessing," a smile appeared on Lin Le's face. She nudged Qi Yun with her elbow and asked with a wink: "Oh~ the clan leaders blessing, huh~ How was it, Qi Bao? Last night... how was the battle?"

As soon as she finished speaking, several familiar voices filled with teasing laughter came from behind Qi Yun: "It was practically a 'war of attrition'! Qi Bao, were you a bit... too hardworking yesterday?"

A girl covered her mouth and giggled.

"Oh my, that 'succubus' figure that had all the boys in school dreaming about it... you really got a bargain, you guy!"

"To be able to let me experience the feeling of being a useless wife, you really are something."

The girls, who had woken up at some point, surrounded Qi Yun and started joking around.

After last night, the girls seemed to have completely let go of certain inhibitions, teasing him even more unscrupulously.

Qi Yun, surrounded in the middle, quickly raised both hands in surrender: "Ahem! Be serious! Look here."

He pointed to the shimmering phantom of the wheel in front of him.

"This is the Lucky Wheel, a reward from the clan leaders blessing! If you win, it's possible to get food!"

He deliberately emphasized the last word.

In an instant, all the teasing and joking stopped abruptly.

The word "food" struck like a thunderbolt into the girls' empty stomachs.

From yesterday until now, they had barely eaten a grain of rice, surviving only on a small amount of wild fruit and leaf sap.

The feeling of hunger had long been inseparable from them.

"food?!" Lin Le was the first to jump up, her eyes wide as saucers, staring intently at the wheel as if roasted chicken and bread were hidden within the illusory light.

"R-really? Can there be food?" Another girl swallowed subconsciously, and her stomach gave an uncooperative "rumble."

"Who has good luck? Who among us has the best luck? Quick! Go up and try!"

Eager voices rang out.

"Yes, yes! Those of you who always hit the pity in card draws, move aside! Don't waste this precious opportunity!"

Someone immediately echoed this, their gaze sweeping through the crowd, searching for the legendary "European Emperor."

"European Emperor? Hmph! Do you even need to look? I am the European Emperor himself, I never trigger the pity, I have the innate European Emperor Holy Body!!"

Lin Le stepped in front of everyone, hands on her hips, head held high.

She looked around at everyone, her face filled with an arrogant "who else but me" expression.

"Have you all forgotten? When 'Star Path' launched, I! Lin Le! Got three golds in a ten-pull! In 'Genshin', when pulling for limited characters, I! Lin Le! Created the miracle of five golds in a ten-pull!"

With every sentence she spoke, her voice grew louder.

Her words evoked memories for quite a few people.

Indeed, for a period of time, whenever Lin Le greeted people, answered questions, or even borrowed an eraser, she would always add that ridiculous yet memorable prefix: "I! Lin Le! Five golds in a ten-pull!"

"When it comes to luck."

Lin Le lifted her chin, "looking" down at everyone with her nostrils, her arrogance so infuriating that it made people's teeth itch, making them want to go up and smack her smug face a couple of times.

"Everyone here is trash! If anyone has had a more legendary, more heaven-defying European Emperor experience than me, speak up now!"

"I, Lin Le, will immediately step down and yield, handing over this 'first draw right'!"

Facing Lin Le's glorious past record and her overflowing confidence, for a moment, no one spoke up to refute her.

Lin Le nodded with satisfaction.

"Since no one is speaking, this historic draw will be done by yours truly, the European Emperor, to lead the way for everyone! If I don't get something good, Lin Le and my sister will trigger another clan leaders blessing for everyone!"

Seeing Lin Le make such a grand vow, the girls immediately started howling with excitement!

"Ohhh!!!!!!"

The girls were stunned for a second, then erupted into excited jeers and cheers!

"Le Le is mighty!"

"It's a deal! If you don't get it, you and Wan Wan will 'sacrifice yourselves'!"

"Twins! It's a twin trigger! Double the happiness! Go Qi Bao!"

"Le Le, draw quickly! We believe in you!"
