Tang Ning was jolted awake by the cold, and it took her a full minute to come to her senses.
Has she come back to life?
After all, she clearly felt herself being thrown into the air by that truck that couldn't brake in time. With that force and that height, if she landed on the ground, she would most likely be crippled, if not killed.
But now...
She did not feel the slightest pain in her body.
Recalling the voice that echoed in her mind as her consciousness was fading, Tang Ning tentatively called out, "System?"
As soon as I finished speaking, a buzzing sound of electricity suddenly came from my mind, mixed with some disordered mechanical noises. After a while, it finally returned to silence.
Immediately afterwards, a childish voice rang in her mind.
"Hello, this is the Scum-Slaying System 54088 at your service."
That little voice... could it be that she's already working before she's even weaned?
A thought involuntarily crossed Tang Ning's mind.
Who would have thought that the moment the thought crossed her mind, the previously sweet, innocent voice instantly turned furious, “You’re the one who hasn’t been weaned! I’m the great, all-powerful, all-knowing scum-hunting system 54088, not one of those weak, milk-drinking human brats you’re talking about!”
Accompanied by a cute yet fierce voice, a tender, soft, white hamster ball appeared in front of Tang Ning, its little paws pointing angrily at her, its little face puffed up with rage.
Upon first sight, Tang Ning was momentarily stunned, but after a moment, she smiled with great interest, crossed her legs, rested her chin on her hand, and leaned over to approach the little creature opposite her.
At the same time, she gently poked the hamster's chubby face with her slender fingers, her smile deepened, and she softened her voice.
"Then, could you please tell me, the great, omnipotent, all-knowing scum-hunting system 54088, what happened to my resurrection? And what do you need my help with?"
Even though she couldn't see her own expression, Tang Ning knew how harmless and deceptive she looked at that moment. In fact, the instant she realized that the little thing in front of her could hear her thoughts, she even began to feel a faint sense of kindness.
This is her instinct, the instinct for survival that she's had since childhood!
Unexpectedly, as soon as she softened her attitude, the little hamster ball that she had gently poked trembled.
"you……"
As soon as the words were spoken, the entire dumpling heated up rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye, turning into a pink dumpling in an instant, with even some steam rising from its fluffy head.
He looks completely smitten with her!
Tang Ning's smile deepened unconsciously as she watched. Wasn't he a little too easy to deal with?
Soon, she got the information she wanted from the shy little hamster whose eyes were sparkling.
The "Scumbag Conqueror System," as the name suggests, involves using the system's assistance to travel through various dimensions and conquer all sorts of scumbag men. Once you completely conquer them, you can earn enough points to exchange for various items for subsequent conquests. However, the system shop will only be activated after the first world ends, at which point you can see what items and equipment are available.
"...And also, accumulating enough points can be exchanged for a chance to be reborn. Then, beautiful sister, you can take all the items you've redeemed back to your original world and be reborn!"
The little hamster blinked its dark eyes and looked at her with its rosy cheeks.
Upon seeing this, Tang Ning's eyes flickered slightly, but only for a moment before remaining expressionless.
"Then why me?"
She asked with a smile.
So many people die on Earth every moment. She doesn't believe that the system selects people randomly, nor does she think she is special enough to be chosen by such a system.
Upon hearing this, the little dumpling became excited. "Beautiful sister, you don't know, I've actually been observing you for a very, very long time, and I've discovered that you are the most, most, most suitable host for me. Only with your personality, experience, and strategy can you avoid being captured by those scumbags' sweet-coated bullets, and also avoid being attacked and killed by them."
"You don't know, I've already found eight hosts. I promised each one a good deal when we bound them, and I'd do my best to win them over. Unfortunately, one by one they either chose to spend their lives with a reformed scumbag in some other dimension and gave up on winning them over, or the high-IQ scumbags discovered something was wrong, and they completely lost themselves in the counterattack. One of them was almost caught and dissected, which is why my performance record is still 0. This is my last chance, otherwise I'll have to switch to logistics work. So this time I'm very careful in my selection. I've observed for a full ten years before choosing you, beautiful sister."
"I originally thought I would have to wait another three months until you had a relapse before I could bind with you, but I didn't expect... It's so strange, considering that according to my data analysis, you shouldn't have rushed out at all..."
The little hamster muttered to itself, somewhat puzzled.
Not only did the system not expect this, but she didn't expect it either!
Always a sophisticated egoist, selfish and profit-driven, she ultimately died from what she considered a foolish act of self-sacrifice to save others. So what if she received a cancer diagnosis? So many men in City A admired her; they could practically line up and circle the city several times over. If she simply put on some sickly makeup, shed a couple of tears, those eligible men, each with their own adoring admirers, would practically beg her to pay for treatment. With that money, she could endure until an organ transplant was no problem at all.
But what happened? She died while saving someone from a reckless truck. She had lived a beautiful and refined life, but her death was so ugly and unsightly. Just thinking about it made Tang Ning unhappy.
As for whether there are any people in that world that I can't bear to part with, there really aren't!
Who has the audacity to make her still remember them even after she's dead?
Tang Ning chuckled softly.
Is it her father, the male protagonist of a Jinjiang romance novel who, after many years, reunites with his first love after a long separation, disregards his wife and daughters at home, and is determined to find true love again?
She's still the same woman who got divorced, got drunk in a bar and ended up with a domineering CEO who ran away with her pregnant. She's pregnant with three babies (two men and one woman), and in the end, she successfully won over the CEO's mother with her pregnancy, completely forgetting that she has a daughter. She's the mother of the innocent and naive heroine from Xiaoxiang.
Or perhaps it was her father's scheming yet naive stepmother who taught her so much.
Or is it her mother's three little brats who dared to push her half-sister into the swimming pool in the dead of winter, mix sand in her food, and do other naughty things, only to be killed again and again, yet still enjoy it?
Or perhaps those upper-class young men who were completely manipulated by her, who loved her so much that they threatened to commit suicide or go on hunger strikes to get to be with her? Or maybe those fair-weather friends who were compared to her by her, used as stepping stones, secretly cursing her as a green tea bitch while maintaining a facade of friendship?
Thinking about it now, her life before was really quite miserable!
She was the only one who grew out of the mud and stood tall and graceful like a little lotus flower!
Tsk!
but--
Just thinking about those people who either looked down on her or cursed her in their hearts, and how they would be slapped in the face after learning that someone like her had died saving someone, Tang Ning felt that she could probably laugh even in death.
As for your question about why she suddenly had the idea to save someone?
Tang Ning couldn't help but recall the image that flashed through her mind: after receiving the diagnosis report, she left the hospital and wandered into a park in a daze. There she saw a little girl in a pink puff-sleeved dress, holding a pink cotton candy bigger than her face, being led by her parents, smiling sweetly as they walked out of the park.
After subconsciously following them all the way, I was surprised to see her suddenly break free from her parents' hands and appear in the middle of the road to retrieve a yo-yo that had rolled away. As the truck approached, the girl's face was filled with terror and blankness, and her parents screamed in despair...
She raised an eyebrow.
If you're going to save someone, then save them. Why ask so many questions?
Tang Ning never regrets anything she has done.
It's just that his death was too ugly, and it makes me feel bad.
Forget about these things that are already in the past. Tang Ning got up and began to look around at her surroundings.
The cramped apartment, only about ninety square meters, was a place she had never set foot in since birth. What caught her attention next was the faint smell of cooking oil emanating from her, which almost made her nauseous. She touched her head and, sure enough, it was greasy.
Tang Ning closed her eyes, took a deep breath, and ignored the puzzled hamster behind her. She got up and rushed into the bathroom. After a long while, she finally came out of the bathroom wearing a white men's shirt.
The reason she wore this was because this was the only piece of clothing in her entire wardrobe that was somewhat valuable and less irritating to her skin, causing her discomfort.
After she came out, her gaze swept over the dishes that had frozen on the white table not far away and the ice cream cake in the center that had begun to melt. She felt that the original owner of this new body was a tragedy.
Yes, a new body.
She had just seen it in the bathroom. She had changed bodies, and although she couldn't compare to her appearance in life, she was still incredibly pitiful.
Her skin was like fine porcelain, delicate and flawless; her lips were rosy and smooth, with no lip lines; her philtrum was slightly upturned; her eyes were dark and bright, as if filled with stars; and there was a bluish beauty mark under her eyelid. Just by looking at her like this, you could feel an innocent sense that no matter what she did, it was not intentional.
Turning her gaze away, Tang Ning then focused her attention on the hamster ball floating in mid-air to the side, and smiled slightly, "Since we're talking about a walkthrough, there should be a corresponding plot summary, right? This body didn't leave me with any memories, so I'm still a bit confused."
"Yes, yes, beautiful sister, wait for me a moment..."
Before 54088 could finish speaking, Tang Ning's face paled instantly under the overwhelming impact of the memories, and then scene after scene slowly unfolded before her—
Unexpectedly, the original owner of her new body was also named Tang Ning, but Tang Ning's life was much smoother than hers, though only for the first twenty years.
She comes from a middle-class family. Her parents are high school teachers, gentle, polite, knowledgeable and well-mannered. They only have one daughter, whom they have always pampered, raising her to be innocent, sensible, beautiful and obedient.
Even though her academic performance wasn't good, they didn't pressure her. Instead, they went along with her wishes and sent her to the Kyoto Film Academy to study acting.
Perhaps the girl's life had been too smooth sailing, and even God couldn't stand it anymore. Sure enough, as soon as she entered school, she encountered the biggest calamity of her life.
Fu Yuankai, a freshman in the same year and considered the most handsome and aloof person on campus.
The phrase "flower on a high mountain" not only describes Fu Yuankai's icy attitude, but also his appearance, which is like a snow lotus on an iceberg, so exquisite and perfect that it would take your breath away if you looked closely. His eyes, nose, lips, and all his features are as if measured by God, with an impeccable golden ratio.
If there's any flaw in this male god, it's that he's tall, poor, and handsome.
He was so poor that he was like an orphan without any relatives. When he entered the school, he was all alone with nothing. Apart from tuition, he didn't even have money for food.
It was Tang Ning, who was standing behind him in line, who saw how embarrassed he looked, having chosen a bunch of food at the cafeteria window but having no money to pay. She kindly swiped her card for him.
With just one glance, he fell in love with Tang Ning at first sight, clinging to her like a shadow. This caused a group of girls who dared not approach to regret their actions, lamenting that if they had known handsome guys were so easy to fool, they would have rushed over long ago. They were just spending money on him, right? Come on, give me a kiss, and I'll max out your card!
But who could have imagined that so-called love at first sight is nothing more than a temporary solace for unrequited love?
Fu Yuankai already had someone in his heart. Not only that, but that person was also the rumored girlfriend of Fu Yuankai's uncle, Fu Yinze, the president of Yuanshi Entertainment, and his bed partner who was nine years older than him. She was Ye Xi, a top actress in the entertainment industry.
You said Fu Yuankai has an uncle who is a CEO, how come he is so poor?
It all started because she accidentally witnessed her crush being intimate with her uncle, and unable to bear it, she rebelled and ran away from home, refusing to rely on her family's money and determined to make a name for herself. Her choice to attend film school with a college entrance exam score of just over 700 was also because the person she liked was in the entertainment industry, and she insisted on applying despite her family's objections.
The reason for choosing Tang Ning was simply because her profile when she smiled was extremely similar to Ye Xi's, especially the shallow dimple at the corner of her mouth.
With just one smile, she touched Fu Yuankai's heart.
Under Fu Yuankai's relentless pursuit, Tang Ning, who had never had any dating experience, quickly lost her composure.
The two were together for four years. During those four years, Fu Yuankai became a huge star thanks to a talent show, rising to the top of the entertainment industry's popularity charts, while Tang Ning...
Despite various objections from the other party, Tang Ning turned down numerous advertising, variety show, and film and television offers. She spent her days in this secluded 90-square-meter apartment, where she wouldn't be spotted by paparazzi. There, she learned various home-cooked dishes, knitting scarves and sweaters, doing laundry and cleaning, decorating the room, and other skills.
Meanwhile, Fu Yuankai had already met his goddess Ye Xi in the entertainment industry, and even took the initiative to lower his salary to play the second male lead who was a simp in her new drama, and he continued to fawn over her from the drama to real life.
Whenever Ye Xi suffered any injustice at her uncle's place, one phone call would be all it took for Fu Yuankai to rush over from afar, no matter what he was doing, to drink with her, listen to her cry, take her home, and so on.
Once or twice is fine, but after a while, even if Tang Ning, the official girlfriend, is slow to notice, she would eventually realize that something was wrong.
So, during her senior year of college, she secretly signed up to be Ye Xi's stunt double in her new drama, just to surprise her boyfriend.
Instead of the expected surprise, her boyfriend gave her a "surprise" instead.
She noticed the subtle, ambiguous relationship between Fu Yuankai and Ye Xi, while Ye Xi also discovered that her loyal admirer had a girlfriend who was just as beautiful as her and much younger.
Suddenly, both women sprang into action.
One was too shrewd, and the other was too stupid. Ye Xi used the manipulative tactics of drunken confession, crying, hugging, and wishing her happiness, while Tang Ning used extreme methods such as pleading, pleas, threats, and coercion under the influence of anger, even saying that she would expose Ye Xi's true colors and never let her get away with it.
After comparing the two sides, Fu Yuankai naturally chose to side with Ye Xi without hesitation.
And just as Tang Ning impulsively wanted to expose Ye Xi's drugging by a playboy, she accidentally ended up sending Tang Ning to that playboy's bed.
But who would have thought that Fu Yuankai's uncle, Fu Yinze, would also be staying at the same hotel that night?
In her panic, Tang Ning ended up in this man's bed and caught his eye.
Unfortunately, Tang Ning had no idea about the complicated relationship between the three of them. She only knew how to frantically try to please this seemingly rich and powerful man, while at the same time using any means necessary to deal with Fu Yuankai and Ye Xi.
And this CEO Fu, for some reason, always went along with her and blindly sided with her. Even when Tang Ning was wrong, he would say she was right and flatter her in every way. He gave her big-budget movies, blue-blooded endorsements, and so on. He took her to various parties and banquets as her girlfriend, and even booked an entire island to celebrate her birthday.
Ye Xi was tortured terribly.
Tang Ning is a human being, not a stone. Moreover, she had just suffered such a huge blow and hurt from Fu Yuankai, and was in a vulnerable state. Fu Yin's attitude of "even if the whole world is against you, I will fight for you" was too much for her to bear. So she was quickly moved by him and fell in love with him completely.
But who would have thought that the moment Tang Ning confessed her love, Fu Yin suddenly lost interest, saying, "Oh, that's how it is. I thought you could hold out for long. Here's ten million. Take the money, and we'll call it even. Let's break up."
Yes, that's the kind of person Fu Yin is. He likes to conquer and challenge, but once he conquers something, he finds it completely boring. His feelings come quickly and go even faster.
可能是这种行事风格太欠揍，这不，下一秒就被人绑架了，为了救她，叶曦也不知怎么就替他挡了一枪，也是这一枪，让他看到了叶曦与其他女人不一样的地方，只有她是值得他爱的。
The two quickly got together.
After Fu Yinze left, Tang Ning offended too many people. With Yuanshi Entertainment abandoning her and Fu Yuankai completely indifferent, a rising star in the entertainment industry, who had always secretly loved Ye Xi, deliberately leaked photos of the two holding hands and kissing, implying to netizens that she, Fu Yinze's girlfriend, had actively seduced and cheated on him. Ultimately, Tang Ning was disfigured by sulfuric acid thrown on her face by one of his radical fans and suffered from severe depression. Then, on the day of Fu Yinze and Ye Xi's wedding, she was in a daze on her way to the ceremony when she was unexpectedly hit by a drunk and speeding luxury car…
Bang!
