I'll Add Points To All Things Chapter 362

Chapter 362 Extra Ability: Chopsticks Named “Ke Bei”

Su Yang clicked on the item introduction for the chopsticks. Indeed, there was an additional effect hidden in the item introduction. Furthermore, it was an (Extra Ability).

Su Yang heaved a sigh of relief.

The ability (Danger Detecting Chopsticks) was very useful. He did not want it to be destroyed by a ridiculous (Extra Talent). After all, (Extra Ability) could be deactivated, but [Extra Talent] could not. Therefore, A bad talent might destroy this item.

As he thought to himself that he had nothing to lose, Su Yang clicked on the [Extra Ability] of the chopsticks.

Extra Ability: Chopsticks named “Ke Bei”

Ability: As long as you discover the dangerous item that the chopsticks have warned of, you will have one chance to identify the ‘dangerous item'. The dangerous item will automatically lose its effect once you successfully identify it.

Limitation 1: Although the warning range is five meters, you are only able to identify the item within one meter of your body.

Limitation 2: If you fail the first time, there will be no second chance.

Limitation 3: If there are multiple dangerous items at one time, you can identify them without going according to the order the warning was prompted Note 1: There is only one truth! — From a certain pair of chopsticks that had glasses on. Note 2: Believe in “Ke Bei” and not “Conan”!

Su Yang was stunned after he went through the [Extra Ability).

What he wanted to say was…'Does the bloody system actually do something right for once? Was it finally not giving me weird extra abilities anymore!??'

He would always remember how happy he was when he got the (Small bench that refuses to eat melons).

The bench could get a bunch of items from the beginning and it did not have any side effects. It was an extraordinary item.

Furthermore, it proved very useful for people like Su Yang who were not enthusiastic and did not want to get involved in other people's affairs but loved to be a busybody.

Whoever had gotten into a fight, or an argument, or even had something fun going on, he would move the bench over and sit right there, munching on melon seeds as he watched. When it was over, he would go home with the bench in hand.

Just thinking about it made him feel excited.

In the end, the system added an unexpected [Extra Ability]: Refuses to eat melon seeds at all costs!

All of Su Yang's hopes were dashed.

After all, if he carried the stool to watch the show, he might get excited and join in the battlefield himself along with the stool.

This was a constant thorn behind Su Yang's back…

Later on, the system would generate (Extra Talents) and (Extra Abilities] at random. Although they had additional effects which even made some useless special items useful, such as (Addictive Kiss], (Raincoat That Likes Bad Weather) and so on, they did not have a compatible ability to match the effects till date.

Now, there finally was!

The first was the ability to detect danger, the second was the ability to eliminate said danger! Could there possibly be a more compatible ability?!

Su Yang put on his chopsticks necklace happily and decided to take it out for a spin.

After all, he did not understand what it meant when a dangerous item loses its effect automatically.

For example, he could understand that for poison, It would probably mean that the poison would lose its toxicity, but what about a knife? Could it be that the knife would be unable to kill?

“That would be so weird…'

With that thought in mind, Su Yang went to the kitchen, hoping to see how this ability would deal with those dangerous items.

Su Yang entered the kitchen and walked within the vicinity of the kitchen knife. As expected, the accessory on Su Yang's neck began to ring as a warning sign.

Su Yang ignored the warning and walked closer to the kitchen knife instead. As the warning sound grew louder, Su Yang picked up the kitchen knife.

This time, the warning sound was like a heavy downpour. It could almost create a musical piece.

It was clear that the system had determined that the dangerous item was the kitchen knife. Su Yang looked at the kitchen knife and wanted to identify the ‘dangerous item'. As expected, a notification popped up in front of him, [Are you sure you want to identify the dangerous item?]

Su Yang confirmed.

Upon Su Yang's confirmation, the kitchen knife broke into pieces and fell onto the ground with a clang. All that was left in his hand was a wooden stick…

Su Yang looked at the broken pieces on the ground and was shocked. He realized that the broken pieces were very peculiar, they were all broken at the specific angles. In other words, they were neither too thin nor did they have a sharp tip.

Of course, these pieces could still scratch or even kill someone. However, just like the first ability mentioned in the (Restriction), even a piece of paper would be enough for an expert to kill. Therefore, it was enough to ensure that ordinary people would not be able to harm others should they get their hands on it.

After witnessing this ability, Su Yang was relieved.

The usual simplistic assassination methods were no longer a threat to him. He would be able to receive a warning beforehand, be it by poisoning or by assasination.

He could even know when someone would secretly take pictures or eavesdrop on him. It was simply wonderful.

Su Yang felt extremely satisfied after obtaining the new item, a useful item in fact.

However, despite his mental satisfaction, his stomach did not feel the same.

He placed his hand on his belly and felt a little hungry, hence he took out the (Grass-Eating Iron Pot], then took out the ‘ingredients. from the kitchen that he had stored. He used the grass and placed them in the pot to cook.

Ever since his special items required such peculiar things, he had always been preparing such things as storage. For example, the fresh blood that was used to charge hourglasses had been stored in Satantan's stomach. Another example would be the grass that was used for the iron pot to cook was also stored in the kitchen.

Simply put, he had to prepare whatever he needed.

Su Yang felt that ever since Qing Zhu was added into his home, he could instruct her to grow grass in the backyard in the future. As a monster that had evolved into a “plant” spirit, she should have some natural talent for this.

In addition, she was in charge of growing the little monster beans as well.

Right now, Su Yang's arrangement for the little monster beans were: There would be nine little monster beans in the house at all times, numbered from one to nine. After two of them exploded, another two more would replace them. First, he would make them drunk and bury them in the ground instead of putting them to work. When they bore new little monster beans, he would then dig them to put them to work, creating a sustainable system…

This was a job that had been done by Little Deeny in the past. Now, they could all be handed over to Qing Zhu.

Su Yang felt that Qing Zhu would be adept at that kind of work based on her gentle nature.

After cooking, Su Yang took a few bites before suddenly remembering, ‘Has Pan Zhaodi eaten

yet?'

He brought the cooked food back to the real world. He opened the door and knocked on Pan Zhaodi's door which was opposite from his. Moments later, Pan Zhaodi's voice was heard from inside the room. “Who is it?” The voice was filled with hostility.

Su Yang said, “Zhaodi, it's me.”

Rustling sounds came from the room. After a while, the door opened and Pan Zhaodi's slender body appeared by the door. She bowed slightly to Su Yang. “Mr. Su.”

Su Yang asked, “Have you eaten?”

Pan Zhaodi nodded. “Yes.”

Su Yang noticed that there was some residue at the corner of Pan Zhaodi's lips. He tilted his head and looked at the room behind his secretary. Pan Zhaodi moved her body slightly to block Su Yang's view. However, Su Yang could already see the bowl of instant noodles on the table.

‘It's… the one with the pickled vegetables. It tastes quite good. ‘Nonsense, there's no nutrition in it!'

Su Yang looked at Pan Zhaodi. “Is that all you're going to eat?”

There was actually a hint of red on Pan Zhaodi's cold face which was already a rare sight, she nodded her head.

Su Yang asked, “Why didn't you order some takeaway?”

Pan Zhaodi shook her head. “I haven't got any money.”

Su Yang was speechless.

Su Yang thought about it. When Pan Zhaodi escaped from her house that month, she was the one who paid for the betrothal gift, hence she has probably spent off all her savings which included renting a house, and buying all kinds of daily necessities.

It would be normal to not have any money now…

Su Yang waved at her. “Come to my room first.”

If she were any other ordinary girl, her imaginations would probably be running wild at her boss's “invitation”, thinking that her boss was up to no good. However, this was not the case for Pan Zhaodi.

Truth be told, she did not think that Su Yang was a gentleman. The main reason was that… Su Yang could not defeat her.

Hence, she followed Su Yang to his room without any worries.

As soon as she entered the room, her sharp nose picked up the smell of the braised pork with preserved vegetables. Following the aroma, she looked across and saw three dishes and a bowl of soup on the table. There was preserved pork with preserved vegetables, spicy chicken and sweet and sour pork. Other than these three dishes, there was also a bowl of fish soup with pickled vegetables.

When Pan Zhaodi saw the dishes on Su Yang's table, she could not help but drool.

She had wanted to order takeaway previously, but just as she was about to confirm her order, she realized that she only had a few hundred dollars left.

These few hundred dollars were all that she had left.

Right now, she owed Su Yang 500,000 dollars and even told him that she wanted to work for him to repay her debt.

However, the two of them did not agree on how much her salary was, nor did they discuss whether he would give her some allowance.

She was not the kind of person who liked to fight for things, nor was she someone who liked to ask questions. Especially in the face of her benefactor…

Su Yang helped her without any hesitation when she was at her weakest moments despite the two of them being strangers who barely knew each other. Plus, he even gave her 500,000 dollars to buy her freedom. She only felt gratitude towards Su Yang.

She felt as though Su Yang had given her a second chance in life, allowing her to be rid of her rotten family. Therefore, even if Su Yang deducted all of her salary to repay the debt, she would not have any complaints.

However, due to her uncertainty about her own future, she could only spend sparingly and did not dare to order any takeaway.

Therefore, after giving up on the idea of ordering takeaway, she wondered if she should find a part-time job online so that she could earn money at night whilst she visited the 24-hour convenience store to buy a bowl of instant noodles to eat…

Later on, Su Yang knocked on her door just as she was about to eat and brought her back to his room…

Seeing that Pan Zhaodi was in a daze, Su Yang gestured to her. “Come sit down. Let's eat together. I can't finish it anyway.”

Looking at how her bowl of pickled vegetable noodles had just turned into a bowl of fish soup with pickled vegetables, along with a few other dishes on the table, Pan Zhaodi's heart was filled with mixed emotions. There was sourness mixed with gratitude, all in all, she was going through a stream of complicated emotions.

She was grateful for Su Yang's help, but she also felt sorry for how miserable her life was at that moment.

However, even though she was suffering now, she felt that her life was a hundred times better than before. One was to suffer physically while the other was mental torment.

Compared to being tormented mentally, she would rather accept the physical suffering. At least she had the freedom to choose how she lived.

Su Yang took out the bowl and chopsticks that he had prepared and passed it to her. As he scooped up some soup for her, he said, “I'll inform the finance department later to give you a month's salary in advance.” “You're both my bodyguard and my secretary. I think you've done rather well.

“Therefore, I'll pay you 9,000 dollars as your salary. After all, you have two roles to fulfill.

“You owe me 500,000 now but I'm not in a hurry to use the money, so you could pay me back in installments over 20 years. That way, you would only have to pay me back 2,083 dollars every month. I'll take advantage of your situation and round it up to 2,100 yuan per month.

“So, your final salary would be 6900 dollars every month. Is that okay?”

Pan Zhaodi lowered her head and ate her rice, shaking her head silently.

She knew that Su Yang was not taking advantage of her at all and it was the other way around. Previously, she had told Su Yang that her salary at the Hi-Tech Park was 6,000 dollars, but Su Yang had managed to find an excuse to increase it to 9,000 dollars. Plus, Su Yang's installment of 2,100 dollars instead of 2083 dollars per month may seem like a lot, but in reality… it was way too little. In actuality, the interest rate for a 20-year loan would be almost more than half of what he asked.

Although Pan Zhaodi had never bought a house before, she knew that it would cost more than 3,000 dollars per month in interest even if she were to calculate it based on the lowest interest rate in the real estate. Su Yang was literally being charitable by only asking for a mere few dollars.

She was not someone who likes to bring things up for discussion, hence she merely etched it in her heart silently.

After eating for a while, Pan Zhaodi raised her head from her bowl and took a peek at the man who was ten years younger than her, it would also be appropriate to refer to him as a young man. After all, he was just 18 or 19 years old who had a rather small stature with a tender face.

However, it was this young man who reached out his hand to her when the world was about to collapse on her. Now, he was silently protecting her from the harsh environment… Perhaps 500,000 dollars would not mean much in the eyes of a wealthy family since they could probably earn it in a few years or even borrow it from their friends and relatives. But for her, it was a heavy burden on her shoulders that she could never hope to be released from

Not only did Su Yang lend it to her, he did not have any ulterior motives or discrimination against her. In fact, he still respected her and took care of her as if it was normal.

At the thought of this, Pan Zhaodi felt her eyes tearing up.

She quickly lowered her head and continued eating As she ate, she made up her mind… No matter who it was, she would not allow anyone to hurt Su Yang unless they killed her first. The human heart was made of flesh. The cold looking Pan Zhaodi was actually more sensitive and fragile than anyone else…

Neither of them was a chatter, hence they finished their food in silence. After that, instead of asking Pan Zhaodi to return to her room, Su Yang brought her around to see the beautiful scenery within the Imperial Capital.

Since it was rare for him to visit the Imperial Capital, Su Yang felt that he should have some fun and take a tour around the place so that the trip was not wasted…

That day, Su Yang and Pan Zhaodi visited the Forbidden City, the location where the locals would have their Flag-raising Ceremony, they even visited Xidan and Sanlitun. They even took a taxi to visit the Great Wall of China. Although they did not climb up the wall, they could at least take a look from afar which was half the feat.

The both of them enjoyed themselves until it was late at night before returning to the hotel. They bid each other good night before returning to their rooms to sleep.

The next morning, Su Yang and Pan Zhaodi went back to the office. This was his last day in the Imperial Capital and also his last day in the company. The atmosphere in the company had gradually eased up, proving that Tan Mei was actually quite capable. She stabilized the entire New Cultural Arts division and allowed it to continue operating in an orderly manner despite Chu Hong's absence.

Due to the lack of artists, the division's revenue was cut in half unfortunately.

However, it was exactly because there were fewer artists that the company could focus its resources mainly on Lin Jiali. The remaining resources were also starting to be invested towards Yang Meiyue.

According to Su Yang, Tan Mei seemed to intend on letting Yang Meiyue debut earlier.

Su Yang did not wish to interfere with the company's operations and merely returned to Chu Hong's office and turned on the television to look at the stock market.

The stock market seemed to be in a slump on that day. Other than Zhang Bang Science and Technology, the other four stocks did not rise much. One of them even dropped to almost nothing

Su Yang looked a little worried as he wondered if he should sell it…

This was the only demerit about leek, it was highly inconsistent. Anyone would be eager to sell it when they saw that they were running at a loss.

Just as he was hesitating, the chopsticks in front on his neck suddenly clattered.

The sound was crisp but not rushed. However, Su Yang was shocked. ‘A warning from the chopsticks? Was there something dangerous around me?

‘But… it didn't ring just now!'

Just as he was thinking about it, there was a knock on the office door…
