"Come on! Bottoms up!" Outside the barbecue restaurant, smoke billowed, and a large fan blew the oily fumes skyward. On the artificial turf, a dozen large wooden round tables and a circle of pink plastic chairs were set up. Under the bright lights, eight or nine students clinked beer glasses. "Why didn't Jiang Nian come?" someone asked. "He's probably out of money, who knows about him," a boy said casually, the small hotpot on the table bubbling with steam. "He hasn't talked with us…-

After two weeks of playing with the Deep Blue Baby, Jiang Nian had roughly figured out some patterns. Small money, skills, slightly larger money, skills. If he were the 38-year-old Jiang Nian from another timeline, these things would be like carrots. Not enough to fill him, but not enough to starve him, requiring constant proactive effort. It wasn't exactly simple, but compared to working, the System offered better value, and the System had indeed been…

“No rush, take your time! We’ll find a suitable direction for expansion eventually. Today is a great day for the Federation’s reunification, so let’s not talk about that for now.” Dragon Dust said with a smile. “Alright!” Gabres nodded.

Zhuang Wenqian was, after all, no longer young; she was twenty-eight. She had been standing on this podium since her university internship, progressing from a junior student to a married woman. She had taught countless students, so she had seen every kind of situation. She had witnessed all sorts of peculiar adolescent male behaviors. If one were to assume, based solely on the general impression of boys in science classes, that all science boys are straightforward and have simple social…

Jiang Nian's head was buzzing the entire morning. What's going on? A girl? Xu Qianqian's words from the morning still echoed in his ears, "My ID card name is Zhou Haifei. Because the college entrance exam is approaching, I haven't changed the name yet; usually, I'm called Haifei." Holy crap, Zhou Haifei is a girl? No wonder she never expressed her feelings from high school to university; Jiang Nian thought, what else could he say? Should he say my chemistry is very good, this is…

Two days flashed by, and it was the last day of September, the eve of the National Day holiday. At ten o'clock, Jiang Nian's parents sat on the sofa at home watching TV. Li Hongmei watched a soap opera, while Old Jiang played with his phone. The Jiang family was rarely so quiet and composed. With a click, Jiang Nian, who had finished evening self-study, came out of the bathroom. He rubbed his hair as he walked forward, and the wet droplets flew forward like rain. This scene made Li…

The motorcycle rumbled over the dry roads of the county town, the main thoroughfare clean and wide, the wind whistling past. "Sister Zhao." "What's up, handsome little guy?" "Is your new job going smoothly?" Jiang Nian remembered her fumbling a bit when she first got the card, probably a little nervous. "Have you started working already?" "Yes, I have. Speaking of which, I have to thank you, handsome little guy." Zhao Qiuxue laughed as she rode, "If you hadn't bought the card and the…

In reality, he's bad at English and terrible at math. Even though the English teacher had called him out last semester, this semester, she still couldn't connect him with a score of 140, feeling like he was a nobody.

Xu Qianqian, as if in a fit of pique, hurried upstairs in one breath and lowered her head to unlock the door. Annoyed, even the door lock seemed to be giving her trouble. It's all Jiang Nian's fault! "You're twisting it the wrong way, my dim-witted friend." Jiang Nian couldn't watch any longer. He reached out, placed his hand over hers, twisted hard, and with a click, the door locked. An awkward atmosphere filled the air. "Ha, playful." Jiang Nian acted as if nothing…

Li Hongmei herself didn't even notice; she was smiling the entire bike ride to work. Everything looked pleasant to her, and even the sunshine seemed brighter than usual. Upon entering the office, a colleague, an auntie in her forties, glanced at her and exclaimed, "Oh!" "Hongmei, good news at home?" "What good news? What good news could I have at my age?" Li Hongmei said this, but stopped her steps and her words. She was waiting for the other person to play along, one of the strange rules of…
