Damn, How could my family be so wealthy?!-Chapter 339 - 338: Don’t Want to Taste Failure

"Su Mu, I don’t think I have the knack for this," Jiang Xinxuan lamented.

Even he didn’t know how many rounds he had played.

All he knew was that the second batch of Game Coins Su Mu had exchanged was now reduced by more than half.

Yet, Jiang Xinxuan didn’t manage to grab a single doll.

Jiang Xinxuan felt fed up, and he had realized that without certain skills, claw machines really were reliant on luck.

Clearly, the claw machine owner had all that luck programmed, and under normal circumstances, it’s nearly impossible to win.

Jiang Xinxuan found that winning at the claw machine was much harder than the college entrance exam.

"It’s just a game, who needs any knack?" Su Mu replied.

"If you don’t want to play anymore, let’s go," he suggested.

Su Mu wasn’t particularly interested in the claw machine game.

So from the beginning to end, Su Mu hadn’t participated at all.

It was Xuanxuan who wanted to play; Su Mu just needed to exchange Game Coins.

As for whether you could grab a doll, that really was down to luck.

"Awesome, I got another one," someone exclaimed.

"This is exactly the doll I wanted the most! Qiang Zi, you are amazing."

"Who said you don’t need skill to play claw machines? You’ve caught two dolls already, isn’t that a testament to your skill?"

It was that girl named Xiao Qing again.

Since her boyfriend won another doll, Xiao Qing’s tail was up in the air again.

However, having learned her lesson, she didn’t dare to make sarcastic remarks this time.

But she believed her eyes could still be pretty sharp.

Xiao Qing realized that her words might offend a bunch of people, but using her gaze to attack, the target was very clear.

It wouldn’t provoke a collective backlash from others.

Gloating, she glanced at Jiang Xinxuan, knowing that the beauty was getting ready to leave.

Xiao Qing’s eyes weren’t just challenging Jiang Xinxuan; she even waved the two dolls in her hand at Jiang Xinxuan.

As if she was flaunting them to Jiang Xinxuan.

Xiao Qing felt inferior in every way compared to the beauty, especially the beauty’s boyfriend.

He was like the top of the crop when it came to handsome guys.

Naturally, Xiao Qing was extremely jealous, but since the handsome guy didn’t even deign to glance at her, she had nowhere to vent her jealousy.

Finding what seemed like a secret weapon, Xiao Qing thought the doll in her hand was the most powerful tool to antagonize the beauty.

With Xiao Qing’s persistent provocations, it was difficult for Su Mu and Jiang Xinxuan to ignore them.

Su Mu glanced at his girlfriend, her lips pursed tightly together.

He knew that this was a sign of Xuanxuan’s displeasure.

Indeed, it was supposed to be a fun activity, but it had been repeatedly spoiled by a tactless woman.

Who would be happy in such a situation?

Isn’t it just a claw machine?

Initially, Su Mu thought it was a trivial matter and didn’t take it to heart.

But now someone was blatantly showing off in front of him and Xuanxuan, of course, he wouldn’t let his girlfriend be wronged.

Su Mu might not be good at claw machines, but Su Mu had a system.

Was there anything more powerful than Su Mu’s secret weapon?

He remembered he hadn’t checked into the system today, and this would be a good opportunity to do so, as well as cheer up his girlfriend.

It’s just a shame that checking in for a claw machine didn’t really seem very meaningful.

Fortunately, the system provided a chance to check in every day, so Su Mu didn’t care much about wasting such an opportunity.

Sometimes, even the smallest of things can become a battle of pride.

"Checking in at the claw machine."

Su Mu quietly started communicating with the system in his mind.

Su Mu felt that such a powerful system could even check in at a virtual place like Player Unknown’s Battlegrounds.

Now in a real scenario, it should also be possible to check in, right?

Su Mu wasn’t afraid of much, just worried the system might look down on such a childish check-in and refuse it.

"Ding! Checked in at the claw machine successfully, reward received: Champion Claw Machine Skill!"

There was a small surprise, Su Mu hadn’t expected to successfully check in.

It seemed that besides money and physical goods, other check-in rewards also varied in size.

As the system’s voice faded, all kinds of techniques for grabbing plushies started appearing in Su Mu’s mind.

Perhaps because claw machines are really a simple activity with not much technical content.

This time, Su Mu’s hands and feet didn’t tremble as they had before.

The images in his mind were not many; it all ended after roughly fifteen seconds.

Comparing this to previous check-ins, Su Mu felt that the system was obviously more perfunctory this time.

Could it be that the system really looked down on this trivial claw machine skill?

"The claw machine skill is quite simple; once you master the pattern, there’s no difficulty, and no need for complexity."

Su Mu and the system communicated silently in his mind.

Therefore, Su Mu’s speculation about the system was crystal clear to it.

Who knows if the system was really idle, it even came out to explain a bit.

"Can you know everything I’m thinking?"

Su Mu was secretly startled, could the system have complete mastery over him?

That was a bit terrifying, if the system could know whatever Su Mu was thinking.

In front of the system, wouldn’t Su Mu become completely transparent?

"Just now, it was because the host activated the check-in system, so I could sense the host’s thoughts."

"Normally, the host can completely ignore my existence. As long as the host doesn’t summon me, I won’t appear, nor will I pay attention to the host’s thoughts."

"The host can rest assured that this system has no habit of prying into the host’s privacy."

This was the longest communication between Su Mu and the system.

However, Su Mu did get some good news, that as long as he didn’t summon the system, his personal privacy was still very secure.

As long as Su Mu paid some attention when summoning the system in the future, there would be no leak of personal privacy.

Su Mu’s heart settled down.

After ending the pleasant communication with the system, Su Mu’s mood became delightful.

"Which plushie do you want? I’ll grab it for you."

Armed with the Champion Claw Machine Skill, Su Mu gently asked Xuanxuan.

Su Mu wouldn’t let his girlfriend lose face over such a small matter.

Not to mention a very small issue, even for very thorny big ones, nobody could trouble Su Mu if he was willing to intervene.

"Su Mu, I don’t want it anymore, let’s go," Jiang Xinxuan said.

Because Su Mu hadn’t shown any interest in grabbing plushies from the start, Jiang Xinxuan naturally assumed Su Mu wasn’t skilled at it either.

Of course, if there were no system, Jiang Xinxuan’s assumption would be right.

But with the godlike system’s help, Su Mu was no longer someone who could be judged by common standards.

Jiang Xinxuan didn’t want Su Mu to taste failure in such a trivial matter and wanted to pull him away.
