Chapter

Su Chen, who had recently failed his university entrance exam, was living a life of destitution.

His girlfriend, disgusted by his lack of ambition, just dumped him. To make matters worse, the summer job he got was under an unscrupulous boss who withheld his wages.

With the reopening of school looming, he was faced with two options: either enroll in a third-tier community college or start working.

Repeating his senior year was not an option. Su Chen was aware that academics were not his strong suit. At best, he could only upgrade from a third-tier to a second-tier community college.

What's the point?!

Suddenly, with a 'plop', a shadow plummeted from the sky, landing in front of him.

Su Chen jumped and blurted out, "Damn, who's so impolite!"

After ranting, Su Chen looked up, noticing that there wasn't even a two-story tall building within a hundred-meter radius.

"Did it really fall from the sky?"

Su Chen was flabbergasted, muttering under his breath, and then walked over out of curiosity.

Bending down to get a closer look, he found out that it was a mobile phone.

Picking it up, Su Chen became even more astonished.

By the sound of it, the fall just now was quite heavy. However, the phone didn't bear a single scratch.

Su Chen blinked his eyes, thinking to himself: Could this be the legendary Nokia?

The phone didn't have any password, nor does it require unlocking. A simple slide and it was turned on.

There was nothing inside except one APP, even the contacts list was empty. From its appearance, it seems like a new phone.

Su Chen, being a decent young man, wanted to return the picked-up phone to its owner.

Of course, he also planned to take revenge incidentally.

Perhaps there is a contact method on that APP?

Thinking about this, without any hesitation, Su Chen opened the only APP on the phone.

As soon as he opened it, a large popup immediately sprang up.

"Huge Discount Flash Sale, Huge Discount Flash Sale, Matchmaker's Red String, requires zero merit points only, don't miss out if you're passing by!"

Su Chen didn't notice anything about merit points, he only saw a big zero at the bottom.

Does that mean he could participate in a flash sale without paying any money?

Is there such a good thing?

Seeing that it doesn't cost any money, Su Chen's eyes lit up immediately and hit the "Flash Sale" button.

However, he only realized after pressing that this phone doesn't belong to him, so what's the point of pressing it?

Moreover, what the heck is this? Cupid's red thread? Isn't this something a feng shui master would use to fool people?

He took a closer look.

Oh wow, there are comments, the ones cursing I suppose?

He clicked to read, sure enough, all the comments were pretty negative.

The first one was: "How stingy, with this weak magic, I bet even the maiden who sweeps the Southern Celestial Gate could not feel its effect."

“Exactly, it's completely useless, it's even free of charge. Even if you paid me, I wouldn't want it.”

"Oh dear, don't be like that. This red thread does have some uses, at least it can help with Chang'e's moon bunnies' mating."

"Pfft! You're making me laugh to death. This junk is only useful against mortals and those jade rabbits that have no resistance to magic."

Looking at these comments, Su Chen was baffled.

Are these people all mad?

Su Chen gave a cold laugh, planning to leave a mad comment as well.

However, at that moment, Su Chen realized that there seemed to be something extra in his hand.

Upon closer inspection, it was a thin red thread.

What the heck?

Did it float down from the sky?

Su Chen casually threw it on the ground.

At the same time, Su Chen noticed an unusual knot on the red string that somewhat resembled a Chinese knot but not entirely the same.

Su Chen was taken aback, as if recalling something, and quickly looked back at his phone.

With just a glance, Su Chen felt a jolt through his body.

This red string and its knot were exactly the same as the flash sale item on his phone!

Could it be? Really?

His instinct told Su Chen that there was more to this app and this red string.

But…

Smack!

Su Chen immediately slapped himself.

What was he thinking? Was he being foolish? How could he believe this?

However, he did hope that everything was true.

If it was true, he could fix things with his ex-girlfriend whom he had just broken up with.

At the same time, as this thought just surfaced, Su Chen saw his ex-girlfriend, intimately walking with a balding older man.

"Lulu…"

Su Chen hesitated, unsure if he should step forward.

"Oh, isn't this Su Chen? What, after leaving me for two days, you've fallen to the point of picking up scraps? I was wise to leave you in advance."

Liang Lulu said arrogantly, not hiding her scorn for Su Chen, her eyes almost rolling heavenwards.

"Lulu, you're actually a simple girl, how did you end up with this old man."

Su Chen didn't take Liang Lulu's mockery to heart, but asked with concern.

"Who I am with is my freedom, none of your business. As for you, once you left me, I guess you're about to sleep on the streets."

Liang Lulu looked at Su Chen with disgust, full of superiority. “A-kun can buy me the latest phones, brand-name bags, and take me to dinners that cost thousands per meal, what can you give me?”

Su Chen looked at Liang Lulu in surprise, he couldn't imagine that the girl who was once moved by a cheap bracelet and who shared weal and woe with him, would turn out like this today...

"Lulu, how did you... turn out to be like this?"

Su Chen murmured, his eyes filled with deep regret and disappointment.

"Lulu, stop wasting time talking to this loser, we still have a concert to attend."

The Mediterranean man's face was all superiority, as if he thoroughly enjoyed the thrill of stealing another's girlfriend.

"Mm, my love, let's go."

Liang Lulu smiled and took the Mediterranean man's arm.

Just then, a stunning beauty with fair skin, an amazing figure, and extraordinary temperament passed by ten meters away.

The powerful aura immediately drew the attention of everyone nearby.

Su Chen and Liang Lulu, sitting by the Mediterranean, were instantly captivated, their eyes fixated on the departing beauty.

Liang Lulu stammered in anger, but she dared not vent her frustration on her Mediterranean partner.

Thanks to Su Chen: "What are you, a loser, staring at? Even if you keep looking, she's not yours. A toad dreaming to feast on swan's meat."

Hearing these words, Su Chen instantly flared up.

Is this woman crazy? You're allowed to flirt with men, but I can't even look at a beautiful woman?

Moreover, we've broken up. What business is it of yours whom I look at?

Suddenly, Su Chen noticed the red string he had thrown on the ground earlier.

He squatted down, trembling as he picked up the red string.

What if, this is real?

Su Chen's heartbeat accelerated, as though his heart would jump out of his chest.

Then, Su Chen immediately opened his phone to check the usage instructions.

The usage method was simple, just tying the string directly onto the other person.

Seeing this, Su Chen decided to risk it all.

At worst, he'll get slapped by the stunning beauty. But touching her hand makes it worth it!

Thinking this, Su Chen took a deep breath and without hesitation approached the stunning beauty.

Then without a word, he quickly tied the string onto the beauty's hand.

Seeing this scene, everyone was dumbfounded.

Liang Lulu, who would have never dreamt that Su Chen, usually too timid to even talk to a stranger, actually dared to reach out and grab a woman's hand in public.
