"Brother, you\'re awake?"

Hearing Lin Yun\'s voice, the figure immediately stopped what it was doing and rushed to his side, uttering joyfully.

Only th did Lin Yun\'s vision begin to clear. He saw a girl dressed in a down jacket, gripping his arm, her face filled with joy and relief.

Despite the thick down jacket, she couldn\'t hide her perfect figure. The color of her jacket highlighted her exceptional elegance. Coupled with her delicate face, the girl looked like a pure lotus blooming amidst the muck.

Beautiful, noble, and elegant.

"Qingqing, why are you here..."

Staring at this girl, Lin Yun asked in bemusemt.

"Lin Yun! As you just said, Qingqing should not be here! Do you realize that you\'re not dead, huh? Downing three bottles of wine altogether, good for you! Do you know if Qingqing hadn\'t searched for you frantically and found you in time, you might\'ve ded up dead on the side of the road? The doctor said you had alcohol poisoning and you were lying on an icy cold road.

If she had be a tiny bit later, you might not have survived..."

"You just got bankrupt, huh? Only a small workshop was gone, no big deal, right? You tried to kill yourself over this? You call yourself a man? I really don\'t know what Qingqing sees in you..."

From not too far away, a girl in a black down jacket was walking over. Hearing Lin Yun\'s words, she immediately pointed at him and spat out her words furiously.

"Yaoyao, what are you saying?" Xia Qingqing blushed furiously as she listed to her best frid, Zhang Yaoyao, speaking without restraint. She pushed Zhang Yaoyao\'s arm away while retorting angrily.

"Did I say something wrong? So many well-off and handsome guys chased after you, but you never ev gave them the light of day. You only have eyes for him. Yet, he has no sse of responsibility, always dragging you along without acknowledging your feelings. Now, just because of a small workshop bankruptcy, he tried to kill himself, he..." Zhang Yaoyao didn\'t stop, she continued expressing her anger.

"Enough Yaoyao, stop talking now. Didn\'t Zhang Xuan just call you? You should hurry over there..." Xia Qingqing stopped her best frid from saying any more and pushed her to leave.

After sding off Zhang Yaoyao, Xia Qingqing returned. She looked at Lin Yun, her face apprehsive, "Brother, don\'t take Yaoyao\'s words to heart. She may have a sharp tongue, but she really is soft-hearted. Did you know that she was with me this whole time while I was searching for you? We ran all over the place, and she was the one who found you first..."

"Qingqing, you don\'t have to say anything more. I already know. You two wt through a lot this time."

Lin Yun shook his head and gave a bitter smile.

Zhang Yaoyao, Xia Qingqing\'s best frid, was someone he had not met oft, but he had heard Xia Qingqing mtion her many times. Lin Yun knew Zhang Yaoyao was as soft-hearted as Xia Qingqing described. However, the blow he had received this time was huge, but not big ough to drive him to suicide as Zhang Yaoyao had assumed.

His slight chuckle served as his response, he didn\'t bother explaining.

Things had gott to this point; what could explaining do? Especially, as he did not actually know Zhang Yaoyao that well.

Xia Qingqing. He had met this girl in his third year in Sh City. Back th, she had just come to Sh City to attd college at Sh University. She had lost her wallet at the train station, which contained not only her living expses but also her tuition fees. She had be at the station, crying with all her luggage scattered a her.

That day, he happed to be at the train station to delivery goods.

The sight of this girl reminded him of his sister back at home, and he felt a surge of pity. On impulse, he gave her all the earnings from that delivery over t thousand yuan.

Just as he was about to leave, Xia Qingqing stopped him. In the d, she decided to work at his small workshop.

Xia Qingqing\'s financial situation was not good. It was already tough for her family to support her through college. This was why she responded so intsely to losing her wallet. Her early arrival in Sh City was part of her plan to find a job and save up some living expses.

While she was working at his small workshop, Lin Yun got to know this girl better. She was gtle, considerate, beautiful, and kind. The two of them got along well. Xia Qingqing came to know about the reason behind Lin Yun\'s help and began to call him "brother" with his agreemt. Their relationship grew ev more intimate.

Ev after Xia Qingqing started school, she oft came back to help. Over the two years, many workers at Lin Yun\'s workshop had come and gone.

Many people who didn\'t know the real story thought that they were siblings. While a few customers actually thought of them as a couple and would call Xia Qingqing the boss\'s wife.

Lin Yun had an inkling about Xia Qingqing\'s feelings for him.

He also had many tder feelings for this gtle, beautiful, and kind girl.

However, his decision to give up his studies might have appeared audacious, but deep down, he was still influced by traditional ideologies.

Xia Qingqing was a college studt at a prestigious university and exceedingly beautiful, whereas he was simply an ordinary man who didn\'t study in college. He only accumulated a small fortune through his slightly clever ways and death-defying efforts. But this wealth was insignificant in Sh City, a city full of the wealthy people.

The value of a regular city residt\'s property in Sh City far exceeded his earnings from these few agonizing years.

Once, wh he wt to Sh University to see Xia Qingqing, he saw a boy driving a luxury car, with a large bouquet of flowers, trying to woo Qingqing. That car alone was worth more than all his assets combined.

This feeling of inferiority stopped him from accepting Qingqing\'s feelings.

In fact, wasn\'t his rect desperation also related to Qingqing\'s feelings?

He was so desperate for success.

However, reality had dealt him a heavy blow.

"Big brother, I\'m sorry. That day, I was going to meet you, but there was a traffic jam. By the time I got there, you were gone, and I couldn\'t reach you on your phone..." Seeing the bitter smile on Lin Yun\'s face, Qingqing was filled with heartache. She wt forward and hugged Lin Yun, apologizing guiltily.

"Silly girl, the one who should say sorry is me, for making you worry yesterday..." Lin Yun stretched out his hand to fondle Qingqing\'s hair, sighing.

Zhang Yaoyao\'s previous words made him imagine Qingqing frantically searching for him on the streets. He was deeply moved. After five years of struggle in this unfamiliar city, he finally had something to show for it; this foolish girl... perhaps she was his greatest gain!

"The host has awaked...the Cosmic Trading System is activated...starting data transfer…"

At that momt, an electronic voice suddly resounded in Lin Yun\'s mind.

Hearing this voice, Lin Yun hesitated.

The Cosmic Trading System?

Lin Yun wondered if he was hallucinating.

Wasn\'t that the name of the miraculous system in his dream?

Could it be...he was still dreaming? He hadn\'t wok up yet? Or...

A massive amount of information was transferred into his mind in an instant, using a special transmission method. He understood the contt of the information immediately, without any discomfort.

However, the contt of the information left Lin Yun shocked.

The Cosmic Trading System...it was real; he really obtained a powerful system.

"Big brother, what\'s wrong?"

Qingqing had be comfortably feeling Lin Yun\'s embrace wh she noticed something was off. She immediately left his arms, looked up at him, and asked anxiously.

Zhang Yaoyao didn\'t understand the significance of the small workshop to Lin Yun or how much he had invested in it over the years. However, Qingqing did and she was worried that Lin Yun couldn\'t handle this blow. This was why she was so anxious wh she couldn\'t find him yesterday.

"Qingqing, you underestimate me. Over the years, I\'ve weathered so many storms, do you really think I\'ll be defeated by this setback? Don\'t worry, I hav\'t be wasting my time these past few years. I promise I\'ll get back on my feet soon!"

Lin Yun saw the worry in Qingqing\'s eyes and was moved. However, he lightly hooked his lips into a smile and reassured her.

Heav was not blind after all; he had lucked into such good fortune. Now, it was time for him to make his riches.

The information from the Cosmic Trading System clarified its origin and operational methods. He had just swept it with his thoughts and found that the system had many high-tech products for sale that was similar to Earth\'s technological civilization but was more advanced.

With such a powerful system, if he didn\'t make a fortune, there was no justice in the world.

At that momt, Lin Yun was thrilled. However, he suppressed his emotions thanks to the years of hardship he had dured.

"Hmm, I believe in you, big brother!"

Hearing Lin Yun\'s confidt words, Qingqing\'s eyes sparkled as if she was looking at the usual Lin Yun. She nodded her head seriously.

"Right, big brother, you must be hungry, right? Here\'s the porridge I just made, have some!"

Th Qingqing remembered something. She quickly turned a, picked up a small bowl from the table nearby, and handed it to Lin Yun, cheerfully.

"Hmm, it\'s be a while since I had porridge cooked by Qingqing..."

Lin Yun smiled.
