Chapter 1 Back in 2013, I'm Bound to the Life Winner System?
Brain storage.
Human Resources Department of W City International Trade Building.
"Age?" The middle-aged woman in the white dress looked up indifferently, glanced at Jiang Chengcheng in front of her, and asked as if it were a routine matter.
“24.” Jiang Chengcheng placed her hands on the wooden table in front of her, looking somewhat hesitant. This was already the seventeenth sales associate she had interviewed.
"Have you ever been married?" the woman asked, twirling the pen in her hand.
"No." Jiang Chengcheng repeated her answer to the question sixteen times.
Upon hearing this, the woman looked up and glanced at Jiang Chengcheng.
……
coming…
It's the same question again. Jiang Chengcheng has failed at this stage almost every time in the previous sixteen interviews. Some kind companies will tell her that they don't hire unmarried people, but most of their responses are:
"Alright, fill out this registration form and go back to wait for our notification." The woman impatiently handed over a white registration form and called out towards the door, "Next!"
赫…
As usual, there was probably no news, so Jiang Chengcheng did not fill out the application form that was handed to her.
She walked home in a daze, unconsciously taking a flyer that was handed to her by someone nearby.
It's true that when you're down on your luck, even drinking water can cause problems. Not long ago, during a company-organized physical examination, Jiang Chengcheng was diagnosed with late-stage cancer. Before she could even understand the hospital notification, she received a "layoff" notice from the company.
It's laughable, really. Becoming a target for job optimization at 24 is probably unprecedented and unlikely to be repeated.
"Is the sun too strong today? My head is so dizzy..."
Just as Jiang Chengcheng was mocking herself, she suddenly felt her body stagger. The sun in the sky seemed to have multiple clones. After a moment, everything went black and she fainted.
Is your life full of regrets?
Jiang Chengcheng was somewhat bewildered as she stared at the subtitles that suddenly appeared in front of her.
what?
I didn't eat any poisonous mushrooms for lunch, did I?
Cancer can cause hallucinations? I've never heard of that!
He glanced around but couldn't find an exit.
"Do I still need to answer questions?" Jiang Chengcheng murmured hesitantly.
"Regrets? Of course there are. Who doesn't have regrets in their life?"
moment.
The subtitles changed again.
"If you could start over, would you choose to return as a top student or live the life of a super-rich person?"
As the subtitles changed, Jiang Chengcheng, unable to find an exit, could only continue answering.
"Only children make choices; adults, of course, want it all."
Jiang Chengcheng said somewhat jokingly.
"So what if I made the choice? Life can't be relived." Jiang Chengcheng thought to herself.
Of course, if life could really be lived again, Jiang Chengcheng really wanted to slap her current self!
That's what you call being a smart aleck! Don't you have any idea how much you're capable of?
"Host's wish has been received. Life Winner System successfully bound. Time rewind to January 1, 2013."
what?
Jiang Chengcheng vaguely heard a mechanical sound coming from afar, and then she fainted. When she woke up again, everything had changed drastically!
"Chengcheng! Chengcheng! Wake up, it's time to eat."
In the darkness, Jiang Chengcheng suddenly felt a chill on her forehead.
A voice, both strange and familiar, came from beside me, transcending space.
Mother?
How can it be?
I remember my mother died in a car accident ten years ago, so who is this voice?
Hearing the familiar voice in her ear, Jiang Chengcheng couldn't tell whether it was a dream or reality.
My head is so dizzy...
Jiang Chengcheng touched her head and slowly stood up. Looking at the unfamiliar yet familiar face in front of her, she was already deeply shocked.
"Mom?"
Looking at her mother in front of her, Jiang Chengcheng's eyes widened. After a long while, her eyes were already filled with tears.
"Mom!" Faced with such a realistic scene, Jiang Chengcheng no longer cared whether it was an illusion or not, and rushed towards the person in front of her.
ten years…
These two short words, however, span countless years. Every time Jiang Chengcheng wakes up in the middle of the night, her biggest regret is that she couldn't give her mother a happy life.
The tree wants to be quiet but the wind keeps on, and the child wants to support but the kiss does not wait.
This was a famous quote that Jiang Chengcheng had heard countless times, and to her it was just a famous quote. But it wasn't until her mother passed away that Jiang Chengcheng gained the deepest understanding of this quote.
"What's wrong with you today? Your fever just broke, are you still feeling unwell? Mom made your favorite stir-fried potatoes, do you want me to bring them over?" Cheng Juan touched her daughter's forehead, feeling a little strange, since Jiang Chengcheng rarely hugged her like this.
Could it be because being sick is too uncomfortable?
Cheng Juan pondered to herself.
"No need, I'm much better." Hearing her mother's words, Jiang Chengcheng instantly perked up. Since her mother passed away, she had never eaten her mother's cooking again, and now she couldn't bear to miss it even in her dreams.
……
That night.
After finishing her meal, Jiang Chengcheng returned to her bedroom and stared at the alarm clock in front of her, lost in thought. More than two hours had passed since she arrived, yet she still hadn't woken up from her dream.
Has it really come back to the past?
Just as Jiang Chengcheng was filled with doubt, the familiar voice came to her mind again.
"Ding, you have arrived at January 1, 2013."
The task is to learn a skill.
Time limit: one month.
Task reward: 100,000 RMB in cash.
Mission penalty: Time reversal failed.
what!
Jiang Chengcheng listened to the mechanical sounds around her, but didn't focus on the 100,000 yuan. What bothered her more than the money was the punishment for failing the mission.
Time travel failed!
How can this be!
I finally got back to the past, and my mother is still alive and well. That's more important than anything else!
Absolutely no failure!
"System, can it be any skill? How do I know if I've learned it?"
Jiang Chengcheng calmed down and inquired about the system's judgment rules.
"There are no strict requirements for skills. The full score is 100 points, and a score of 30 points in the basics is considered passing."
The cold, mechanical sound came again.
Upon hearing the system's reply, Jiang Chengcheng fell into deep thought.
To achieve a basic score of 30 within a month, a teacher is definitely needed, and the only suitable option near my home is probably an ice rink.
Because it's the only ice rink in W city, there are many coaches giving lessons there regularly.
However, Jiang Chengcheng hesitated. She was already 14 years old, which was too old for figure skating. What could she possibly do in a month?
Jiang Chengcheng scanned the surrounding buildings in her memory again and tragically realized that, whether she could do it or not, she had no choice but to choose figure skating.
After all, because it was close by and she often went there when she was a child, Jiang Chengcheng still had some basic knowledge of it.
Forehead…
At least you can go on the ice...
Thinking about this, Jiang Chengcheng suddenly realized something to complain about.
System! You only mentioned skills, so isn't ice skating a skill too?
Yes! You don't necessarily have to learn figure skating!
Isn't ice skating a skill too?
system:……
Are you exploiting a bug here?
"The system has determined that ice skating is a skill." The cold, mechanical voice came again.
Great! Now I don't have to worry anymore!
Jiang Chengcheng finally breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this.
The next day at daybreak, Jiang Chengcheng found her mother, Cheng Juan, who was cooking next door, and discussed her plans with her.
When Cheng Juan heard that her daughter suddenly wanted to learn to ice skate, she was a little surprised but did not stop her.
After all, it's never a bad thing for a girl to learn another skill, so he generously gave Jiang Chengcheng two thousand yuan in addition to returning her New Year's money.
