Divine Lucky Star

Chapter 80: Chapter 80 Mother, Aren’t You Being Too Fierce?

This week, streaking! Please comfort me with recommendation tickets!

“Damn it, finally home. It wasn’t easy!” Today’s dinner with the big star felt particularly different! Upon entering, I changed my shoes and Little Bai rushed over, shaking its head and tail, making me laugh as I said, “You do know how to welcome the boss, don’t you?”

Little Bai: “Woof woof!”

“Here’s your reward. Knew you’d come to greet me,” I tossed a peeled sausage to Little Bai and then headed to my bedroom. But just as I entered the living room, I found my mom and dad staring at me with bright, intense eyes.

“What’s with you guys?” I suddenly felt a chill, “Why are you looking at me like that?”

I had a bad feeling about today!

Dad looked solemn and asked in a deep voice, “Tell the truth, what did you do tonight?”

“Didn’t do much,” I replied nervously, “just had a drink with a friend…”

“That one with the computer?” Dad hummed, “Pretty slick, son, hanging out with a big star and drinking till midnight—aren’t you afraid of being killed by those crazy fans?”

Shit, hearing Dad say that, it really was dangerous!

I broke into a cold sweat and whispered, “Well, she was wearing makeup…”

“That’s just your luck,” sighed Dad, “I’ll tell you, to the real fanatic fans, they could recognize her even if she turned into ashes. Did you ever think of the consequences if people find out you’re friends with a big star? Reporters could block our complex’s entrance in minutes!”

Damn, I hadn’t thought about that before.

Thinking about it, Dad was right. That’s the Ice Princess, the number one celebrity in Heavenly People’s Republic, the acknowledged top beauty, and I am her only friend—a guy, at that…

Oh, crap, if people found out, would they snip me with a sinister snip turning me gay?

That’s totally possible!

“Old man, look how scared you’ve made Haoer,” Mom intervened, unable to watch anymore, “It’s just a dinner, what’s the big deal? Even the biggest stars are just people, and people naturally have friends. Having a drink with a friend—what’s the worst that can happen? By the way, Haoer, did she drink? Where did she stay the night?”

Spot on, Mom went straight to the point!

I felt tingling on my scalp, “Really didn’t go anywhere, just had a drink, she drove me back, then went home herself.”

And then I noticed Mom’s eyes suddenly lit up like 200-watt bulbs, “She drove you back? Herself?”

Stammering, I replied, “Yes… of course…”

“Good boy, not bad!” Mom suddenly got excited, “I knew it, our Haoer is something special, got some tricks up his sleeves!” Then Mom pulled me aside, acting all sly and stuffed a box into my hands, “I’ve had this ready for you, just never had the chance to give it, take it, might come in handy later.”

Seriously, Mom, are you hiding chewing gum like it’s contraband?

“What is this?” I took the box she handed me and looked.

It was a small box, blue, with seven big characters on it—Energy Suit, naturally comfortable…

Oh my god, Mr. Du!

Mom, this is too outrageous, aren’t you being a bit too progressive? Your son can’t handle this!

“What are you two sneaking around for?” Dad couldn’t stand it any longer, “Alright, go to sleep early. Haoer, remember, it’s Saturday tomorrow, get up early. My colleague said everything is arranged, meet at the park at nine, a rose as the token, don’t be late.”

“Oh…” I muttered, “Really going?”

“Nonsense,” Dad snapped, “Do you really think you can marry a big star or something? I’m telling you, even if she would marry into our family, we couldn’t afford it! Better drop that idea and get ready for the blind date like a good boy. This girl is not bad at all, not much different from a star!”

Alright, seems like Dad is giving me a preemptive shot to keep me from getting too picky.@@novelbin@@

A father’s order cannot be disobeyed, I’ll just go…

I definitely had my fair drink today, time to sleep!

…

The next morning at eight, I was still asleep when Dad’s roaring voice came from outside, “You lazy bum, still asleep! It’s almost eight, get up! Don’t you have something today?”

“Oh…” I mumbled in response, then groggily got up, scratching my bird’s nest-like hair, “What’s going on today…”

“Go take a shower now,” Dad, already dressed, shouted, “Didn’t I tell you yesterday about meeting someone at the park at nine for your first blind date? If you’re late, you’ll mess it up! They say the girl is very pretty! If you mess this up, I’ll skin you alive!”

Right… blind date! Oh yeah, Dad arranged a blind date today, nine at the park, rose as a token!

“Right away, right away!” I quickly responded and hurried into my room to get ready.

Ah, a blind date today, better hurry back to my room, it’s all up to my luck dice now! It’s my first blind date, I hope she’s a pretty girl! Let’s go!

I clasped my hands together, shook the dice in my palm hard, then threw it onto the table, roaring, “Good luck! Very good luck! Divine-level luck!”

“Clatter—” The dice finally stopped after a few turns on the table, and when I clearly saw the word on top of the dice, I was stunned!

Because right there, on top of the dice, were the words “Unlucky”!

Unlucky again?

After two bad lucks followed by a good luck, and now unlucky again?! How am I supposed to live with this?!

Sweating buckets, my hands trembling as I held the dice, “Unlucky again! I’m going on a blind date today, big brother!”

A blind date with bad luck, who knows how unlucky today will turn out…

“I just don’t believe it, even if it’s unlucky, how unlucky can it get?” I muttered as I began to dress, “At worst, the blind date turns out to be an absolute nightmare, what’s she going to do, eat me?!”

Once dressed, the novel uploaded, I dressed up and headed out!
