Chapitre

On the sandy beach by the sea, around four o'clock in the afternoon is when people are most abundant, crowded like dumped dumplings. A group of young people were taking a group photo in the shallow sea amidst the waves.

"One, two, three!"

"Sea!" The young voices echoed over the sea.

"Yang Chao! Hurry up! We'll wait for you at the rocks!" The brutes in his dorm room shouted at him, and Yang Chao could only wave his hand: "I'll be right there!"

The waves gently caressed his feet, and he always felt as if something was bumping against his feet.

Upon looking down, Yang Chao noticed a blood-red stone in the water gently bumping against his foot. "Huh? What's this?"

How could a stone float in water?

"What is so strange about this stone?" Yang Chao picked it up, placed it on his shirt, and carefully wiped it.

He held it up for a closer examination. The stone was irregularly round, with an exterior texture resembling glass. However, its touch was delicate and different from the cold sensation of glass. Inside was a blood-red liquid.

It might be amber. This would be an unexpected gain!

"Wait for me!" Tucking the 'amber' safely into his pocket, Yang Chao, holding his shoes, chased after the others in the waves.

The rocks at the beachside were numerous and slippery, and some were even pointed. As Yang Chao was walking through them, his leg scraped on one, causing an instant bleed.

"Just my luck!" Yang Chao wiped the blood away with his hand. The wound wasn't big, but it kept bleeding.

Searching his pocket for something to dab the wound, he could not find a tissue, but he did touch the 'amber' he had just found. The blood from his hand tainted the 'amber.'

In Yang Chao's pocket, the 'amber' emitted a blood-red light! The light moved from the 'amber,' going through the wound in his leg and into his body. None of this was noticed by anyone else because of the cover of the pocket.

Yang Chao had no choice but to return to the hotel first and tend hastily to his injuries.

Early the next morning, still in the midst of dreams, Yang Chao heard a fuzzy sound of someone calling his name.

"Old Yang, wake up, it's time for us to go."

Rubbing his eyes drowsily, Yang Chao looked up to see Wang Yuan, his roommate, in…in the midst of yelling at him to wake up, all while packing his bags.

"… Old Wang, could you please put on some clothes before moving about?" Yang Chao said, throwing on his shorts and joining Wang Yuan in packing.

The whole thing was meant to be a two-day trip, and today marked the third day. After the farewell dinner last night, most of their classmates had caught either a train or a plane to leave late into the night.

The present morning scene came about because Wang Yuan and Yang Chao were sharing a room at the hotel.

"Me, not wearing any clothes?" Bewildered, Wang Yuan looked down at his clothes—they seemed to be properly on.

"Aren't you fully awake, Old Yang? I'm dressed."

Yang Chao turned back to find Wang Yuan in the beach pants and shirt from yesterday.

"Hahaha." Embarrassed, Yang Chao gave a laugh. "Maybe I'm not fully awake."

He felt puzzled. He was pretty sure he'd just seen Wang Yuan bare-chested. Shaking his head, he chalked it up to his drowsiness.

"I'm going down for breakfast first, you better hurry up." Wang Yuan didn't wait for an answer from Yang Chao and ran out, leaving the door wide open.

"He really lacks any sense of civility," Yang Chao muttered, continuing to pack his things.

A service staff pushing a cart stood at the door, noticing Yang Chao packing, they asked, "Excuse me, are you checking out?"

"Right." Yang Chao put the last item into his backpack and turned around.

"Holy cow!" The waitress was only in her underwear! Yang Chao was taken aback. Was this how open the waitresses are nowadays?

Yang Chao shook his head hard. When he looked again, the waitress was wearing the hotel uniform, with the name of the hotel written on it.

"No way." Yang Chao thought in shock, "I can't be delusional, can I? Why is everyone undressed?" Yang Chao slapped his own head hard.

"Sir? Are you okay?" The waitress looked at Yang Chao with concern.

Yang Chao, who had returned to his senses, quickly waved at her: "I'm fine, I'm fine."

Completely bewildered, Yang Chao didn’t know how to express his feelings at the moment. Could it be that his prolonged singleness had caused some kind of psychological shadow?

"Hello, I would like to check out." Yang Chao handed over the documents and the room key in his hand. The receptionist girl revealed a professional smile: "Okay, sir. Please wait a moment."

Yang Chao was looking at the cigarette cabinet behind the front desk. It was not far from the desk to the cabinet, just a few steps, but he could see the cigarettes inside clearly, even the small letters on them.

He pointed to the cigarettes inside: "Can I have a pack of those, add the cost to my bill."

"Of course, the cigarettes cost twenty-five, deducted from your deposit, here's your remaining deposit, please keep it."

The cigarettes in the hotel were several yuan more expensive than the outside.

But he was kind of puzzled, he could clearly see at this distance? That shouldn't be.

Yang Chao had a myopia and astigmatism of three hundred degrees, left from using mobile phones and computers over the years. Normally he could live normally without glasses, but anything smaller than two meters away would be a blur.

Having improved vision also sped up the speed of finding people considerably, and he spotted Wang Yuan at one glance.

"Old Yang, the breakfast here is really good, quite worth the fifteen yuan," Wang Yuan exclaimed as he took in the bowl of fried rice with egg, milk, a variety of sausages, vegetables, and fruits in front of him.

Yang Chao carried a cup of milk and a plate of pasta to the seat opposited to Wang Yuan. Seeing Wang Yuan indulged in his food, he jokingly teased him.

"Looks like you made a great deal!"

"You're up quite early."

Yang Chao looked up only to see two students from the neighboring dormitory.

The duo, arm in arm, entered the cafeteria. To Yang Chao's embarrassment, from his perspective, these two were completely bare... wearing only pajamas with prints- one donning Batman, and the other SpongeBob. Both were grinning at him.

"Cough! Cough!" An embarrassed cough or two escaped Yang Chao. He didn't expect these two to enthusiastically greet him while in their attire.

"Let's get breakfast and save a spot for us!"

Seeing the two 'supermen' heading to the food-serving area just like that, no one even bothered to stop them!

"With their attire today, they must have some kind of event." Wang Yuan joked, with a hint of envy in his eyes, "Dressing up in suits in such hot weather, they must be planning to charm the girls. When will I ever get a girlfriend?"

Yang Chao automatically glossed over Wang Yuan's complaint and narrowed in on the salient point.

"Suits?" Yang Chao was bewildered. Wang Yuan said they were wearing suits, but in his own eyes, they were only wearing... A sudden thought struck Yang Chao.

What if the issue isn't with his mind but his eyes!

Thinking back to the many novels he had read before, his heart shuddered and began to pound furiously.

What does this imply? It implies that his life, the life of Yang Chao, might undergo a complete transformation!

"Stay calm, stay calm." Yang Chao quickly comforts himself to calm down. However, in Yang Chao's heart, this thought is becoming stronger and stronger!

He looks at the two people who are getting meals, mentally muttering: "Perspective!"

What excites Yang Chao is that their clothes really disappeared, leaving only SpongeBob grinning at him!

"I struck it rich!" Yang Chao was inwardly overwhelmed with excitement!

Yang Chao silently chanted in his heart, "Yang Chao, calm down, Yang Chao." He couldn't resist mentally whispering "Perspective!" at his backpack, and items inside the bag gradually appeared.

It was not an illusion! It's real! Yang Chao tried hard to suppress his excitement, but the feeling of exhilaration in his heart lingered long.

After breakfast, they each went their separate ways, promising to meet on campus when the holiday ended.

With the power of perspective, the world is mine! Yang Chao's heart was filled with boundless heroic spirit, even the gloomy weather seemed especially pleasant!

Looking up at the sky, he pondered on how he could use his unique ability to earn his first pot of gold?

After some thought, he decided to start with the lottery for a chance at wealth!
