Chapter 3 She, Ning Shuyin, I took her away.
The next morning, Ning Shuyin was awakened by the gentle vibration of her personal computer.
Outside the window, the sky was already bright, simulating a beautiful dawn.
Rubbing her sleepy eyes, the first thing she did was open the system panel in her mind and sign in daily.
[Sign-in successful. Received 1 system point.]
Current total points: 2 points.
Below is her profile panel:
[Host: Ning Shuyin]
Age: 21
[Potential Assessment: No potential (It is recommended to work in logistical support roles)]
[Core Module: Insufficient Permissions]
Then……
And that was it...
"Completely lacking potential," "Logistical support."
Ning Shuyin looked at the panel and laughed out of anger: "In my anger, I could only be angry for a moment."
Where are the legendary stat boosts? Where are all the cheat-like features? Is the main focus just on companionship?
Below your personal information is the system store, where a dazzling array of goods flashes by.
[Gene Repair Fluid (Basic)]: 1000 points.
[Portable Space Jump Device]: 50,000 points.
【Paradox Bomb】: 999999 points.
...
She silently turned off the panel.
Putting aside these bizarre props, she couldn't even understand their purpose.
With the 1 point she earns for checking in every day, there are some items she can't afford even if the world were to end.
After a hurried wash, Ning Shuyin opened the wardrobe, her gaze fixed on the corner where her few decent clothes were hanging.
Even if you're incredibly carefree, you still need to consider what to wear when going on a date with the "Demon King."
Ning Shuyin chose a light blue dress.
Take off the skirt, fold it carefully, and put it into the backpack compartment.
After doing all that, she changed into a durable office uniform, jogged out the door, and squeezed onto the overcrowded public transport vehicle.
We finally made it to the "Rose Club" building.
As the only ordinary person in the technical department who has not yet awakened to this reality, Ning Shuyin's situation is quite awkward.
In the interstellar era, superpowers are almost an invisible standard for class division.
Not being awakened means being "defective".
Most of her colleagues couldn't help but look at her with pity.
"Shuyin, you don't look well. Here's an energy drink for you." Supervisor Lily handed over a glass bottle of orange juice with concern, her tone as gentle as if she were comforting a wounded animal.
Ning Shuyin quickly waved her hand to refuse, "Thank you, Sister Lili, I'm fine, I'm just still sleepy."
Energy drinks are supplements used after superpowers are depleted, and they are very expensive.
Lily is an awakened C-class navigator.
Her fiancé is the president of the Sixth District Energy Catering Group, so an energy drink is nothing to her.
But for those who are not yet awakened, drinking it is a waste.
Therefore, Ning Shuyin declined Lily's offer.
A sneer came from not far away.
The alluring green-haired beauty, Bi Fei, crossed her arms and said, "Sister Lily, you're so kind-hearted. Some things are innate. No matter how high-grade the energy juice is, it can't fill the gaps in your genes."
Bifei is an E-level navigator in the next department, and she is known for her sharp tongue.
Lily was about to retort when Ning Shuyin stopped her.
"Sister Lily, it's alright." Ning Shuyin said calmly.
It's not that she's easy to bully.
A book was pressing down on her mind—in this world built by plot, she didn't want to get bogged down in trivial matters.
She was kept on a whim all morning.
First, they were sent to calibrate the old server array, and then to the ventilation ducts to collect the stuck nano-cleaning bees.
Fine metallic dust mixed with sweat clung to his forehead, and his clothes were stained with several gray marks.
When I finished my work and returned to the office, it was already lunchtime.
She slumped into her chair, finally having time to check the personal terminal.
The screen displayed several unread messages.
Clicking on the first message reveals a fleet emblem as the sender's profile picture.
[Situ Linchen: We're on a date today, I'll pick you up.]
Short and straightforward.
Ning Shuyin felt as if she could sense that person's desire for control and oppression through the words.
The second one comes from a minimalist hospital logo image.
[Lorraine: You can come to my clinic for a checkup if you're on a date.]
The words "physical examination" came out of the mouth of a medical genius who had no respect for life. Ning Shuyin immediately imagined the terrifying scene of herself being tied to an operating table and about to be dissected and studied.
She couldn't help but shiver.
The third one features a profile picture of a glittering gold coin.
[Zhou Zhiheng: Just tell me what kind of gift you want, I can afford it.]
The words were full of chaebol arrogance; they weren't exactly contemptuous, but they certainly didn't show respect.
The fourth one is a profile picture of a constantly changing nebula.
[Caesar: ?]
There is only one question mark.
What was he trying to say? Was he dissatisfied with the dating match? Or was he asking her how she wanted to date?
Ning Shuyin couldn't figure it out.
All she knew was that the four text messages pointed to four different hells.
In the novel, these four villainous male supporting characters will fall into self-destructive and evil ways after being completely rejected by Su Qianqian.
They started matching dates with other women.
The author glosses over those dating "styles" with extremely obscure words.
The trembling beneath the velvet restraints;
A symphony of pain that did not cease until dawn;
Cold metal utensils;
The sound of a whip cracking across skin...
—These are all extremely insane acts that are rated 18+.
Ning Shuyin's fingertips went cold as she looked at it.
Just as she was feeling uneasy, her personal terminal beeped again.
She opened the message with trepidation, but the sender's name stunned her.
It's the original male protagonist—Gu Lei.
His message was very simple, containing only two words:
【interesting. 】
interesting?
Ning Shuyin was stunned.
Why would Gu Lei message him? What did he find "interesting"?
Did he discover that the dating matching results had been tampered with?
Ning Shuyin looked at those two words over and over again, trying to figure something out, so much so that she didn't even notice when the vice president of the Rose Society walked up to her.
"Ning Shuyin! Is work time for you to watch your personal terminal and talk about love?"
Ning Shuyin jolted and put away her personal terminal: "Sorry, supervisor, I..."
The vice president was a pot-bellied man.
“I think you’re too idle. Perfect timing, you can cover for A-Jie on the 24-hour maintenance shift tonight.”
Everyone knows that Ah Jie is a relative of the vice president, and whenever it's his turn to work the night shift, he always finds various excuses to avoid it.
Ning Shuyin frowned.
24-hour shifts? What about a 6 PM date?
"Vice President, I can't tonight," she could only refuse with a stiff upper lip. "I have a date after get off work."
"Dating?"
The vice president seemed to have heard the funniest joke of the entire era: "What date could an ordinary person who hasn't even awakened yet have that's more important than work? If you're not on duty, pack your things and get out!"
A duty logger was slammed heavily onto the table.
Just as the vice president pointed his finger at her, intending to continue "educating" her—
"Boom!"
A roar, seemingly emanating from the depths of the earth, caused the entire building to tremble.
Ripples spread across the water glass on the table.
"What's going on? An earthquake?" someone shouted in panic.
The roar grew louder and closer.
The entire sky darkened.
A huge shadow loomed over the entire block where the "Rose Society" was located.
The pressure was immense.
Almost everyone was so startled that they rushed to the window.
When they saw the scene outside the window, they all gasped in shock.
A massive interstellar warship is hovering in mid-air in front of the Rose Society!
The airflow from the flagship engine had blown people and horses all over the commercial street, leaving it in a complete mess!
"My God...that's...the flagship of the Alliance Fleet Marshal, the Starship?"
"How did it get here?!"
The Rose Club's upper echelons were instantly thrown into chaos.
The president didn't even have time to put on his coat before he led a group of executives out in a scramble.
A bridge of particles was fired down from the flagship.
A man in a black military uniform, surrounded by a group of guards, slowly walked towards the Rose Club.
The people in the office fell silent and fearful, as if they had seen the Grim Reaper.
Situ Linchen entered the office area, his gaze sweeping across the entire space.
Finally, they accurately captured that pale, delicate figure.
He strode forward, his military boots making a steady sound as they hit the floor.
Step by step, I walked up to her.
"I'm taking her, Ning Shuyin."
