Chapter 1: 001 Second chance at life
"Unable to dure any longer, she…"
Listing to the voice on the other d, inside the rtal room, Li Zhiyan\'s hand let go of the wine glass, and it shattered on the g.
This news struck him like lightning out of the blue, spreading pain rapidly through his heart.
Aunt Sh, too, has left this world.
"Li Zhiyan..."
"Li Zhiyan..."
Li Zhiyan could no longer hear the voice on the phone.
The only person in this world who had be kind to him was now dead. What meaning did this world have for him anymore?
His consciousness was continuously dissolving, and the memories of his life flashed by like a moving panorama in his mind.
At 3, he had still achieved nothing in society.
His grandparts had passed away long ago, and he had never se his father since childhood.
His mother died in an accidt wh he was 9.
Misfortune, it seemed, joyed singling out the hapless.
Now, he struggled alone in society, living a hard life.
Ev wh he got sick, he had to dure bitterly alone in the hospital.
Whever he saw others cared for and cherished by someone, Li Zhiyan\'s heart felt uncontrollable vy.
With average height and a face that could only be considered pretty, it seemed as though no one had ever truly cared for him over the years.
Except for the girl with the limp he met after graduation, Su Mgch, who liked to wear her hair in twin ponytails.
Su Mgch was truly beautiful, but because of her inner insecurities, she was reluctant to interact or communicate with others.
She always walked with her head down, hating the ugly way she walked due to her limp.
On a few fortunate occasions, he had oped her heart.
Becoming her boyfrid was the first time Li Zhiyan had ever be in a relationship, ev though they were always pointed at wherever they wt.
But Li Zhiyan, just an ordinary person among the masses, felt blessed to have found such a beautiful woman; it was his good fortune.
Su Mgch had truly giv him all her sincere love and emotions.
And her mother, the glamorous Sh Rongfei, the woman with a chest size of a D+ that resembled Zg Li, had also be really good to him, treating him like her own son.
Back th, he thought, if he could marry Su Mgch, he would be satisfied to live his life like that.
But with the pressures of life forcing its way in,
After losing his job, he had be evicted by the landlord, and only th did he realize that without money, nothing worked in society. Feelings of inferiority and repression constantly besieged him.
Thankfully, that silly girl remained by his side throughout.
But he didn\'t wait for a wedding with Chch; instead, he received the devastating news of Chch\'s death t years ago while he was working.
Due to an accidt, Su Mgch had lost her life, leaving him forever, just like his mother.
Li Zhiyan didn\'t know how he had managed to survive these years.
Throughout these years, Li Zhiyan, immersed in pain, fought desperately against fate.
He wanted to earn more money, to one day give Aunt Sh a better life.
But the pressures of life were too great. In the Magic Capital, Li Zhiyan worked overtime diligtly, yet he could barely make ds meet.
Another night of drunk stupor.
Li Zhiyan th heard the terrible news of Sh Rongfei\'s suicide.
As his consciousness gradually disintegrated, Li Zhiyan\'s heart was filled with pain.
Is this the d…
If there is a next life, I want to be a rich second-geration, a super wealthy person!
That way, I can forget all the troubles of this world and have no more regrets.
…
Wh Li Zhiyan oped his eyes again, he saw a rose in his hand.
There was a card on it that had embarrassing, foot-itching love talk that he had writt.
"Yu Sisi."
Li Zhiyan wanted to continue reading but was too embarrassed to go on.
"Is this a hallucination?"
He pinched his own flesh hard, a surge of pain hitting him.
It snapped Li Zhiyan back to his sses, taking in the familiar surings of his school as he pulled out the flip phone from his pocket.
Li Zhiyan glanced at the time.
"0, July st!"
"0!"
The voice of his best buddy, Li Shiyu, completely drew Li Zhiyan\'s thoughts back to the year 0!
"Brother Yan, you\'re really bold! To actually make a public confession to Yu Sisi!"
An embarrassing memory flooded his mind, one of two embarrassing evts in his adolescce.
One was the constant rants about wanting to become a millionaire.
The other was his goddess throughout his youth, Yu Sisi.
He had pursued her for a full two years, but although she accepted his gifts and kindness, she never accepted his confessions.
Ev though she came from a wealthy family, the gifts Li Zhiyan exchanged for all his living expses were indiscriminately accepted by her.
And she had a set of professional responses.
Accepting gifts ≠ agreeing.
And she couraged him to keep pursuing her, telling him that she would consider being his girlfrid in the future if he was sincere ough.
Because he was repeatedly rejected, today he got carried away.
He announced in the class group chat that he would confess to his goddess at the graduation party today.
Afterward, he made his public confession, only to be ruthlessly rejected by Yu Sisi.
He was also mockingly slapped in the face by rich second-geration classmates who were also pursuing Yu Sisi.
For many years to come, this evt became a topic of casual conversation and ridicule among his classmates.
He could never forget the 8-year-old he was at the graduation party, a clownish version of himself.
"That\'s a pretty flower you have."
"I think the school beauty will definitely like it."
As they spoke, the two had arrived in front of the hotel.
Seeing the flowers in Li Zhiyan\'s hand, Yu Sisi proudly lifted her head.
At 8, she was in an age of vanity.
Although she didn\'t care for the ordinary Li Zhiyan, being the cter of such a public confession from him was a way to prove her charm.
Looking at Yu Sisi in front of him, Li Zhiyan felt nothing anymore.
Instead, his atttion was completely on Yu Sisi\'s mother, Gu Wanzhou.
Giving birth to a school beauty like Yu Sisi, Gu Wanzhou\'s looks were naturally exquisite, and with the refinemt of time.
Today, she was dressed in a black button-up shirt with a black pcil skirt, flesh-colored stockings, and a pair of high heels.
The charm of a mature woman was released to its fullest.
Only a mature woman could carry such an outfit so well.
There was a special allure about her.
Perhaps it was because she was of a certain age.
Li Zhiyan felt he was becoming increasingly appreciative of the beauty of mature wom.
And at this momt, the more he looked at Yu Sisi\'s mother, the more she resembled the madam from K (A Korean TV series, in which there is a character who is a very sexy and beautiful Milf, Song Yoon-ah 송윤아), causing his hormones to race.
The madam is also very beautiful!
A mature woman\'s unique attraction to a young man?
Th a voice rang out.
"System awaking successful."
"Random task issued."
"Yu Sisi will refuse and embarrass you in the upcoming confession."
"Please confess to Yu Sisi\'s mother, Gu Wanzhou."
"Task reward, fifty thousand yuan in cash."
This voice made Li Zhiyan pause.
A system?!
