Chapter 1: The Educated Youth who Abandoned His Wife and Son 1
“Team Leader and I asked for your leave, Yan Chu. You won’t be working today. You should go to the health station at the entrance of the village to get some medicine. The kettle has hot water. You should drink more.”
In a slightly dilapidated mud house, laid a handsome but awkward youth, covered with a thick quilt and an unhealthy red flush on his face.
Yan Chu laid on the Kang57Kanga heatable brick bed, watching his roommates going out one by one, and nodded weakly.
“Hey, even if Yan Chu is a good-looking, good character, and a high school graduate, unfortunately, his body is a little inferior. It hasn’t been long since we came to live in a rural community, how many times has he been sick? If he can’t return to the capital, what can he do in the future?”
“Who knows? But you also said that he is good-looking. It’s enough as long as there is a girl in the village who is willing to marry him. There will be help from the future father-in-law and brothers-in-law, but I’m worried that life won’t last.”
“Yan Chu isn’t a proud person, so he is possibly willing to marry a countryside wife, here isn’t the capital after all.”
The voice outside was getting farther and farther until Yan Chu could no longer hear it. He closed his eyes and accepted the original self’s memory and the world’s story.
That was right. The current Yan Chu was not the original Yan Chu anymore. The man in this body now, although had the same name, was a world foreign visitor. Perhaps he could also be called the Executor.
There was an incredible place beyond Nine Heavens, except for Lord God and the systems he created, the rest was only the executors like Yan Chu.
Most of them had accidental deaths, unwilling people, and selected by the system for mental or some reasons, to carry out the tasks. As long as they accumulated enough points, they could return to their original world and eliminate their obsessiveness.
Yan Chu did not know why his system picked him. After all, there was a little regret in his life, besides early death as a virgin.
However, his parents had loved him, he had a successful career, even though he did not have many friends, they were loyal. His cause of death was also a disease, so there was not such a thing as killing accidents.
What made him rest assured was his parents did not follow the one-child policy. His younger brother was only three years younger than him, but he was one step ahead of him by letting his parents hold a grandson. He was sick for a very long time, so his parents had long been mentally prepared. It might be painful for them, but time was the best medicine. There was his little brother so he could rest assured.
Yan Chu sometimes thought, could it be that because he had behaved with the highest integrity, the reason for the system picking him was to get him out of his virginity?
If you did not understand, you did not need to think about it. Yan Chu was an open-minded person. It was better to be alive than dead anyway. He accepted the system’s conditions and became an executor.
Yan Chu calmly accepted the original self’s memory and the plot of the world. When he was done and calmed down, he could not help but swear.
This world was a parallel world that was similar to Huaxia in the 1960s and 1970s. It was roughly the same, but there had been some changes in the history of the leaders.
The original Yan Chu was seventeen years old and a capital person. In 1976, he had to live in a small village’s rural community in the South. His family condition before he went was proper, with both his parents being university professors, but unfortunately, his fate was unfavorable. In the first year of the massive cultural campaign, his biological father was accused of treason by his students. His biological mother divorced her husband immediately, used the original self to remarry, and published her renunciation with the original self’s biological father in the newspapers.
The naive and ignorant original self, who was seven years old at that time, became a thankless wretch in some people’s mouths. He was a cold-blooded, heartless, and unfilial son.
His biological mother was remarried and later gave birth to twins. In addition to the remarried husband’s eldest son, they made her rarely think about the original self. The remarried family had a good condition, so they did not unreasonably treat him materially. It was a depressing living environment with the finger-pointing of the friends and relatives on the stepfather’s side, which made the original self’s temper sensitive and had an inferiority complex. On the outside, he was a noble and benevolent character, when, in reality, was petty.
On his sixteenth birthday, his biological mother disregarded his objection to replacing his stepbrother’s name with his on the list of people who went to the countryside to live in a rural community and made him an educated youth. His body was not very healthy, added with the countryside’s life had been extremely tough, and he was seriously ill several times, almost did not get through. To make things worse, in his second year as an educated youth, he received a letter along with a parcel from his biological father’s farm, which consisted of mementos of his biological father.
Looking at the direction of the first half of the story, this was estimated to be a process of a small villain’s formation. Sure enough, the college entrance examination continued, the original self was admitted to the best university in the country and smoothly returned to the capital.
The following story was very cliché, with him instigated everywhere at home. He incited the relationship between his stepbrother-his stepfather, his stepbrother-his half-brother, also his biological mother-his stepbrother, to make a messy situation in a family that was supposed to be harmonious.
His stepfather considered being the first batch to quit the sea of reform and opened to the outside world work system to begin a cattle business with the original self’s biological mother, which created a small family business. The original self’s mind was on this family business and wanted to replace the stepbrother rather than all the two half-brothers to get the inheritance. He was also unwilling to let the stepbrother get a dime.
Because he remembered at that time, if it were not for the stepbrother and the biological mother’s words, the person who went to the countryside to live in a rural community would not be him. He only had the biological mother as his remaining family, so he did not dare to resent the biological mother, and could only put resentment over the stepbrother.
But unfortunately, this world’s protagonist was not him but his stepbrother and his girlfriend. As it should be by rights, his schemes had failed and he left miserably in disgrace in the end.
If it was like that, Yan Chu was unlikely to say the original self was a scum. But to escape the heavy farming tasks in the countryside, this boy got married to the daughter of his team leader because the girl loved him. He ran around to deceive the people. After the college entrance examination was reinstated, he also manipulated the girl to steal her father’s official seal for his introduction letter. He patted his bottom and went to university. He threw the countryside wife behind his mind when he left, not knowing that his wife was pregnant.
Yan Chu disliked those men who played with feelings the most. Even though many people were sorry for the original self, the little girl was truly good to him. He had failed to live up to not only an ordinary loved one but also the only one in the world, the one who was indeed sincere to him, without any ill-feeling to exploit.
His child, who was brought up by the little girl, was also accepted to the same university where he was. Because of the chain of cause and effect, his son had learned about what had happened in those years. It was ridiculous that when he died, his dead body was taken by the wife and child, who had long since been abandoned by him, in the end.
At death’s door, the original self saw their ridiculous life. The missions were to grant his wishes. He hoped to return to the beginning of everything. This time he did not want to be a villain in other people’s lives. If possible, he wanted to completely separate from that family. He wanted his father to live well and to make up for that little girl, also their child.
“Ding— Main Mission: let Lin Dingding obtain her happiness, the success reward is 500 points, and failure is to be locked up in the Dark Room for fifty years. Side Mission: saving Yan Xun’s life, the success reward is 300 points, no punishment for the failed side mission.”
Yan Chu still had not recovered from the instilled memory, when the System 007’s sound came to his ear.
“The world’s difficulty level of the first mission is low. If there aren’t any special circumstances, don’t call the system.” Finished speaking, it disappeared from inside Yan Chu’s mind immediately, really came and went quickly.
Yan Chu somewhat could not even force a smile, but there was not any way out of this. Lord God’s space system was seriously inadequate now. 007, as a single-digit important system, brought more executors. It also served as the Female Vengeance System, the Cannon Fodder Counterattack System, the Villain Whitewashing System, the Pampered Imperial Concubine System, and any other various systems in one body. Yan Chu, as a newcomer, was not worth the effort for 007 to spend on him.
Speaking of it, Yan Chu still did not know what the system was on him. Couldn’t it be some villain whitewashing system? Steadily, the thought in every future world he might be a big villain, he could not help but fight a shiver.
However, saving Yan Xun, the biological father’s life of the original self, he could understand this mission. Letting Lin Dingding, his future countryside wife, obtained happiness, what were the criteria for determining the value of this happiness?
Yan Chu pondered it over and over again. With the pressure to be in the Dark Room for fifty years or to have brave death, he called for 007 in his mind.
“What’s the matter!!! Say it!!!”
Even if 007 did not have a body, but listened to this voice, Yan Chu felt its grievances had materialized.
It was no wonder for 007, for it was just dealing with one host’s terrible mess. Obviously, the host’s correspondence was merely her own Pampered Imperial Concubine System, so all she had to do was seduce the Emperor. But every time this host went to a world, she had to tempt not only the Emperor but also Wangye78WangyeThe Archduke, Huangzhi67HuangzhiThe Prince, Taifu68TaifuThe Grand Tutor… As long as she fancied them, she would seduce them right away. The good Pampered Imperial Concubine System had nearly been presented as a meat shield for the Female Lead System by her.
007 was desperate, but that woman could do an outstanding job to complete her missions. It could not give any punishment or curses, could only help her clean up the mess after her ass.
“What are the criteria for determining the value of happiness?” Yan Chu resisted the low pressure of the system and asked with a steady voice.
“The happiness value can be checked by opening the system panel. The completed value is 100. When it reaches one hundred, the main mission is considered a success.” Yan Chu’s calmness made 007 take a quick look. It had a hunch that this host might be able to go for a long time.
However, everything was difficult to predict. It thought how originally its shy girl host, but now ruthless one. The ever-serious system was overwhelmed by her.
007 had fought a shiver. It could sense that if it did not watch that garbage sixth host attentively, she would climb on the King Regent’s bed tonight. It was ready to obstruct her. Otherwise, the plot would collapse.
Regarding the system’s style of finishing explained and being off at once, Yan Chu already a little getting used to it. He pulled out his mission panel. Sure enough, on top of it, there was the achievement calculation of the main mission and side mission. Currently, the completion of both was zero.
“Big Brother Yan, I bought the medicine to reduce your fever.”
When the educated youth’s door knocked, a crisp female voice came through from the outside. Yan Chu willed the mission panel to close. If his memory was correct, it must be the current next mission target Lin Dingding.
That one silly yet heart-wrenching young girl.
