Chapter 2 Rebirth - Back to 18, I became rich by spending money
"Wen Yan, wake up. It's already late. Get up, wash up, and go to school."
Hearing the sound outside the door, Wen Yan opened his eyes. What? School! He had graduated for so many years, and the word "school" was far away from him. He sat up and picked up the phone beside him.
Um?
May 25, 2018?
Wen Yan's mind, which had been still hazy, suddenly cleared up. Was he 18 years old again? He had only read about this kind of novel online before, and thought it was just a novel. He had never expected that he would be reborn one day. Was it because God saw that he had suffered too much in his previous life and wanted to give him a second chance?
"Wen Yan, are you up yet? You're almost late for school!" Her mother's urgent voice echoed from outside the door. Wen Yan stopped thinking and, relying on her memory, put on the school uniform beside her bed. She left her room and went to the bathroom to wash up. Looking in the bathroom mirror, her face, though immature, still revealed its beauty, finally broke into a heartfelt smile. A youthful and vibrant face, at the peak of youth. How wonderful!
"Wen Yan, hurry up, breakfast is ready for you, eat quickly, you are almost late for school, you are about to take the college entrance examination, and you are not in a hurry, dawdling." Looking at her mother's face without wrinkles, Wen Yan couldn't help but want to shed tears. It was great that her mother did not become numb because of the pressure of life. Listening to her mother's nagging words, Wen Yan felt very warm. It had been a long time since she heard such nagging. Later, her mother became more and more silent because of the pressure of life, and had no expectations for life at all.
"I know, Mom. Go and wake up my brother. I'll be there soon." I still remember that my younger brother was still in the second grade of junior high school. Unlike me, he was not in a tight schedule because of the upcoming college entrance examination. He would get up half an hour later than me.
Again, that’s great!
My younger brother is still attending school diligently. He did not drop out because of the family debt. He did not even finish high school and went out to work. In the end, both the siblings were struggling to make ends meet.
After going out, I took the bus near my home according to the route I remembered. It was only three stops away from school. The morning sun shone on my body, and everything seemed beautiful.
Arriving at school and entering the classroom, Wen Yan saw the countdown on the back blackboard: 11 days left until the college entrance exam. Looking at the bustling classroom, with students collecting homework, studying, secretly eating breakfast, and the youthful classmates, Wen Yan felt deeply moved.
"Wen Yan, why are you standing there? Sit down quickly, Lao Du will be here soon." Hearing the voice calling, he realized it was his deskmate in senior high school, Xu Qian.
I walked quickly to my seat and looked at the desk, which was piled high with books because of my senior year. The candy wrappers from the day before were still on the table.
Xu Qian looked at her deskmate. She felt like she was acting strange and dull today. She sat in her seat for a long time without moving. "Wen Yan, are you okay? Why do you seem strange today? Hurry up and memorize your lessons. If Lao Du comes in later and sees that you haven't memorized your lessons, he'll definitely say something to you."
"Oh, okay." Wen Yan randomly picked up a book of 3,000 English words required for the college entrance examination, stared at the book, and thought about his rebirth.
"Program started, initialization complete! 1%...10%...50%..." Hearing this voice, Wen Yan was stunned for a moment. What the hell? Who is talking? "Qianqian, are you talking to me?" Wen Yan looked at his deskmate.
"No, what's wrong with you? Why are you acting so weird today?" Seeing Xu Qian's strange eyes, Wen Yan smiled at her and lowered his head embarrassedly.
"Preparation is complete. Do you want to activate the Good Life System? Yes/No" Wen Yan was completely stunned when he saw the light screen that suddenly appeared in front of him. He shook Xu Qian's hand. "Qianqian, take a look. Is there anything in front of you?"
"No, what happened to you today? Why are you so weird?" Seeing the strange look in her deskmate's eyes, Wen Yan embarrassedly said that she didn't sleep well last night and might be a little out of spirit. Xu Qian looked at her deskmate's face and felt that it was no wonder. She looked at her worriedly and said, "Well, if you really feel uncomfortable, wait for Lao Du to come in and tell him that you can lie down for a while."
"Yeah, it's okay, you can continue to recite." Wen Yan said, and continued to look at the light screen in front of him. It seemed that only he could see it, and he was secretly happy. It turned out that it was not only rebirth, but also the necessary cheating system for rebirth!
Clicked 'yes'
"Live well system, activated, host attributes are initially activated..."
"Name: Wen Yan
Appearance: 75 (out of 100)
Body: 50 (out of 100)
Charisma: 45 (out of 100)
Intelligence: 34 (out of 100)
Happiness Index: F×1 (assessed based on the host's living conditions the previous day)
Disposable points: 1
System mall to be opened"
What the hell, what kind of system is this? My intelligence is only 34? Okay, after getting the system, Wen Yan's first reaction was that the system only rated his intelligence at 34. Wen Yan curled his lips, speechless.
"Hello host, I am an artificial intelligence system from the year 4050, 068757 - Good Life System. Please take care of me in the future."
Just as I was thinking about it, another sentence popped up in my mind: Good life system?
"Yes, because in the future interstellar era, the human happiness index has reached negative 100. There is no joy, anger, sorrow, or happiness. Humans eat through nutrient solution. As a result, the birth rate of human newborns is getting lower and lower, and the global population is getting smaller and smaller. My master invented me. Through the time travel machine, he selected a host and learned that your happiness index has been negative for a long time. After binding, he learned the regrets in the host's heart, returned to the period of the host's greatest regret, and started over. Help the host live a good life and live happily every day. After the host dies naturally, the system will return to the future and transmit the host's happiness data to the main computer to help the interstellar humans find happiness again."
After listening to the system's explanation, Wen Yan finally understood why she was reborn. At the age of 30, she had already lost all expectations for life and lived every day like a walking corpse, just getting by.
