【Ding! Congratulations on unlocking the EX-level talent – Traveler]

Chen Luo has successfully unlocked his talent after completing a thousand small daily tasks.

After unlocking talents, you will get rewards for completing missions, including original stones and skill rewards.

[Mastery of household appliances], [100% stabbed with bare hands], [100% repayment by the fox]…

As more and more commissions are completed, Chen Luo has more and more strange skills.

However, the skills are strange and some Chen Luo can still accept it. The most distressing thing for Chen Luo is that some people’s commission rewards are getting more and more wrong…

Mebius, do you want me to study with you? Can! But why would the reward be a memory?

Gan Yu, do you want me to work overtime with you? No problem, but why is the special reward a seven-seven? Where did you get it?

“The entrustment rewards they give are really getting more and more wrong!” Chen Luo complained while teasing the pink-haired fox he picked up.

- Description from novelbuddy

The country girl, Emily, was an orphan. She survived off the scraps that she could find from families around her. Every one of them despised her.

One day, a fairy-like little brother came to the city and brought her home.

At first, Emily wasn’t popular in other people’s homes, but she quickly awakened her god-tier learning talent. She could learn pretty much anything and everything in an instant.

Soon, Emily was regarded as a child prodigy. She was proficient in all sorts of arts, including zither, chess, and calligraphy, and that’s just the tip of the iceberg.

The elders and older brothers who didn’t really like her in the past were all captivated by her and spoilt her like a little fairy.

Every day, her grandparents, parents, uncles, aunties, and brothers fought to pamper her.

Grandpa said, “Baby, can you help Grandpa take a look at this painting?

Grandpa liked to collect oil paintings, but his deteriorating eyesight couldn’t discern good paintings from bad ones, and he kept getting tricked by sellers . So he had to consult the seven-year-old Emily because paintings that passed through Emily’s hands were never wrong.

Her father pleaded, “Baby, help me. The chairman of the Gu Site Corporation wants to get a calligraphy painting from you. This will determine whether my company can land a deal with them!”

Her brothers pleaded. “Baby, are you busy today? When are you going to visit your brother’s school? I promised the principal that I would bring you there. You can’t go back on your word.”
