1 C.1

Xiao Yu's whole life was a joke. She never enjoyed happiness and had suffered a lot throughout her life.

She was born in a poor family, even worse, she also had an older sister and a younger brother, so they always struggled to feed themselves.

Her family got along well, but it wasn't so with their relatives, life wasn't the best, but it wasn't the worst either. Her parents were good tempered, the children were naturally also blessed with a good temper. Xiao Yu wanted to live a better life, so she slowly turned more aggressive.

Over time, Xiao Yu had grown into the type of person she hated the most, but for a better life, no matter who she became, she had to go on in order to survive.

She stumbled quite a lot along the way, as soon as Xiao Yu turned 18, she borrowed money and went up north. Of course, without an identity and a decent background, only with her pretty appearance, Xiao Yu could at least support herself.

Finally, relying on her decent looks, she managed to date a boyfriend that ticked all her boxes. He was tall, rich and handsome. Except for the fact that he wasn't caring enough, gentle enough and he didn't love her enough, everything was fine.

However, when her boyfriend found his true love, he kicked Xiao Yu away with one swift kick, how merciless of him!

Xiao Yu grew up with her grandmother, so naturally she would not accept this ending. She took out the tricks she had learned when she was living in the village and continued to hang onto him.

Then...then, she was harshly taken revenge on.

Xiao Yu never thought that life could be this difficult, but she had a strong resilience deep down in her. The harder it was, the more upright she would stand. Gritting her teeth, Xiao Yu managed to survive no matter how hard it was, jobless? Then she could be a cleaner. No? She'll be a garbage collector, no matter what, she'll always manage to survive in small corner of the world. Is there someone who could wipe her out alive?

As long as she still had the will to live, she could.

Even if she broke her leg, she could get a wheelchair, if she couldn't pick up trash, she'll beg for food. Xiao Yu struggled all the way like this in order to survive, but she didn't expect her life to be so pitiful. As a beggar, it was like she didn't have the right to live, and she eventually died in a fight between some men.

What kind of life is this? Xiao Yu sighed.

Even if it was death, it was in such a painful way, she could clearly feel her blood slowly dripping out of her body and this felt rather terrifying. She unconsciously tried to crawl out, even until her very last breath, she wanted to live, but who could win the god of death?

No matter how unwilling Xiao Yu was, she took one last breath and passed.

With this last breath, a mechanical voice rang in her mind: "Host, you are finally dead."

Xiao Yu: "..." I @#¥%&*...

Xiao Yu was able to survive in such an environment, except for her unyielding spirit, it was also because she was very accepting of the things that happen in her life. The only exception to this was with her ex-boyfriend, which still ended terribly.

People who are accepting of life's challenges, no matter how difficult their life was, they won't die of depression, or go crazy, or even jump off the top of the building.

When Xiao Yu found out that she was dead, after 3 hours of sorrow and sadness, she started to try to adapt to her floating soul.    

No matter how the system called for her, she didn't want to answer. What did it mean that she's finally dead? Did it know how difficult her life was? Was it looking forward to her death?

"Host, why are you ignoring me? Host, host host???"

The system said it's called 404, which is a guide system that specifically guides people towards a happy life.

She continued to ignore the system for another hour, before Xiao Yu began to ask it: "How do you choose your host?"

404 was delighted! Finally she responded, and immediately replied in a joyful tone: "We choose the ones who are the most pitiful! The worse the better!"

Xiao Yu: "..." Thank you!

"Host, this is what's going to happen now. I have a book here. Now I need a host to head there, so when's the best time for you to depart?"

"...what do you mean?"

404 explained: "Our system is to guide the host to their pinnacle of life, but in order for the host to start a new life, one has to be reborn in someone else's body. The price to it is that the host has to fulfill the wish of the original host."

Well, it's a good deal. After all, this is a bargain. One can't take advantage of this deal, without putting in any effort, Xiao Yu understood the principle behind it.

"That means I can live in a different world?" Xiao Yu thought for a while and asked.

404 said, "That's for sure, let me show you my success stories. Look, this girl named Luo Qian, she used to live a miserable life! All her 300,000 pension funds were used on treatments. In the end, she wasn't cured, and at last, she was selected by me. After my careful guidance and hard work, I finally succeeded in helping her to get a promotion and a pay raise, become general manager, then CEO, marry a rich and pretty girl, uh... marry a rich and handsome man, that is the pinnacle of life. How do you feel about a life like this? Isn't the mere thought of it already making you excited?"

Xiao Yu: "...Is it that powerful?

404 lifted the non-existent little chest of it and said: "That's for sure, let's go now!"

"Wait a minute, how about the person I am going to be reborn into?"

"A girl from a wealthy family." 404 said affirmatively.

"A girl from a wealthy family?" Xiao Yu's gaze lit up, but she still asked calmly, "There's nothing else to her, right?"

404 hesitated for a while and said: "I...don't think so?"

Xiao Yu: "..."

It's better to live on than to die. If she could live, why would she choose death? Xiao Yu naturally accepted the task. As long as she completes the task, she can start a new life, and live a much better life than her current one, she would be able to enjoy the wealth and glory that she has never enjoyed before, which is of course a good thing.

However, the moment she opened his eyes, Xiao Yu didn't know how to react when she saw all the white before her eyes.

When she found out she couldn't move, it added on to her confusion.

Blinking her eyes as she listened to the bustling noises nearby, Xiao Yu finally knew that she had reborned, and the original owner of this body was now in the hospital.

"404, why do I feel that this ward does not look like a room that a rich lady would choose to stay in?"

However, there was only silence to answer Xiao Yu's question. At first, she thought that 404 hadn't arrived yet, but she didn't know that it was because It didn't know how to answer her question.

"Mom." A young boy's voice sounded.

Xiao Yu turned her head around and looked. The boy looked beautiful. His eyes were big and bright, but there was no sparkle in his eyes. He had a tall and straight nose and small attractive lips. He seemed like a child who would make people want to bring him into their embrace at first glance, but he was too thin, so thin that all his baby fat was nowhere to be seen, so thin that his hands were all bones, so thin that his head looked so big, it felt like it was about to fall off his body.

"Wipe your hands." The little boy said, wringing out a towel from the basin on one side, and then wiping Xiao Yu's hands for her.

The child looked as though he was only 2 or 3 years old. No one was allowed in the ward except for the patient and their family. There was only one child struggling to take care of her, Xiao Yu felt guilty deep down in her heart. He's still so young, he should be having fun at this age.

When the child finished cleaning her hands, he held a basin about his size and walked towards the toilet to pour away the water. Then he ran back with the empty basin, climbed onto Xiao Yu's bed, and fed Xiao Yu some water.

The child was really sensible and his movements seemed very experienced. He put aside the cup with the straw, and then pulled out the bag next to the pillow. He took out two dollars from his wallet and said to Xiao Yu, "Mom, I'm going to buy breakfast."

When the child left, the uncle of the bed next to her sighed: "Your child is so obedient! The hospital's food is expensive, and he runs across the street with some money every day to buy cheap meals. He still needs to take care of you. It's not easy!"

Xiao Yu still didn't understand what was happening, so she didn't dare to simply respond to anyone, and just nodded.

She irritably said in her mind: "404, come out now, what is going on?"

Her mind was still left quiet, not to mention the mechanical sound it makes, there wasn't even a slight noise.

Xiao Yu finally came to a realisation: "Did you lie to me?"

"Lie, lie, lie? No, I didn't lie, lie to you." As a mechanical system, 404 even stuttered.

Xiao Yu sneered: "You didn't lie to me? What's this situation? Did you tell me that person that I would be reborn as was paralyzed?"

404 didn't know how to answer her for a quick second, and said, "This...a person that would allow you to be reborn as her and contribute her body, surely...her life would also be quite miserable, right?"

Xiao Yu sneered: "That's right, I can't refute your point. But…couldn't you have told me about this before reincarnating?"

404 tsked, and said in a happy tone: "Of course not! What if you won't come?"

Xiao Yu: "..." There is no way to refute it.

404 comforted her: "Host, it's okay, you have me! I am a good and responsible system with powerful functions. You have to trust me, and I will help you reach the pinnacle of life so you'll get to live a happy life. "

Xiao Yu was silent for a while and asked faintly: "Can I change to another world?"

404 immediately answered happily: "That can't be done."

Okay, Xiao Yu understood now, and asked the system: "Let's talk about it then! What is the original owner's wish?"

404 was thankful that the host accepted it so quickly, and listened to Xiao Yu's uproar: "Even if I do complete the mission, I don't want to live my life in a body like this!!!"

"Uh..." 404 said again: "It doesn't matter, I am a powerful and good system, I have the golden touch, with me by your side, I will help your body heal."

Xiao Yu only then reluctantly accepted it, and said: "Then tell me about the original owner's wishes!"

So, 404 projected the plot into Xiao Yu's mind.

Everyone transmigrates into books they have read, but it was a different case for Xiao Yu, when was this novel published? Could it be a new novel that came out during the years when she was struggling to survive?

After all, Xiao Yu did go through a pretty tough time for several years. During this time, various novels have sprung up, but how would Xiao Yu have the time and energy to read them?

The novel's plot was typical. Xiao Yu's favorite novels when she was still in high school were of similar plots.

The male protagonist was the son of a rich family, and the female protagonist was poor. By coincidence, the female protagonist offended the male protagonist, but the female protagonist was an upright, strong and unyielding character.

Not long after, she attracted the attention of the male protagonist, after all kinds of entanglements and flirting, getting into a relationship and breaking up over and over again, and defeating all the supporting male and female characters who wanted to seperate them, they finally lived happily together.

Xiao Yu roughly understood the direction of the story, and asked, "Oh, who am I? If my life is so miserable, am I a female supporting character? I haven't seen a female supporting character with a baby before?"

404 projected something again, and she accepted the memory of the original owner.

Xiao Yu: "...I'm now 10 years before the start of this novel? Then why do I need that novel for?" It's useless.

404: "Oh, it's like this, did you see the male and female supporting character in the book?"

"I saw them." Xiao Yu said.

404 sighed: "They're quite pitiful, right?"

"Pitiful." Xiao Yu admitted to it because in the end both the male and female supporting character ran away from home, no one knew if they were dead or alive.

"Well, both the male and female supporting character are the children of the original owner." 404's mechanical voice sounded cold and ruthless.

"..." Fuck you!
