“Dear Miss Chu, you’re still so stunningly beautiful today.” Under the bright spring sunshine, a handsome boy held a bouquet of flowers and passionately confessed his feelings by the school field.
His target was none other than the eldest daughter of Tianyun Group—Chu Xiaoxiao.
The bystanders nearby murmured among themselves. “This Ling Chen is pretty good-looking, but it’s a shame he’s brain-dead.”
“Yeah, how many times has he confessed to this young lady now?”
“No idea. Feels like every single day for the past three months, rain or shine.”
“He gets rejected so miserably every time, even I feel bad as a passerby. Last month, I saw Chu Xiaoshiao throw his flowers on the ground and stomp on them.”
Right then, Chu Xiaoshiao didn’t bother hiding the disgust on her face. She stared at the handsome boy as if she were looking at something repulsive, her eyes filled with contempt.
All of this was witnessed by a personal maid standing by a window in the adjacent teaching building, holding a military-grade telescope.
This maid was none other than Ling Chen’s employer. She had hired him to act as a simp for her young lady.
“Mr. Ling, please make it even more disgusting. Let the young lady humiliate you thoroughly, to drive away those other pests who dare to covet her.”
Hearing this request, Ling Chen couldn’t help but smile bitterly. This money really wasn’t easy to earn. Still, for the payment and the system reward, he was determined to go all in.
To make money, I’m definitely taking this simp role. No one can stop me.
Having been good at acting since childhood, Ling Chen closed his eyes for a moment, then put on an extremely greasy look as he stared into Chu Xiaoshiao’s eyes.
“Dear Young Lady, you know, the first time I saw your eyes, I fell deeply in love with you. Please allow me to serve you, by your side. I love you!”
Seeing the disgustingly nauseating look on the annoying person’s face, Chu Xiaoshiao couldn’t take it anymore. She snatched the flowers from Ling Chen’s hand and smashed them right in his face.
“Get lost! People like you—get as far away as possible. Don’t gross me out.”
Watching the roses scatter all over the ground, Chu Xiaoshiao snorted coldly and stormed off furiously.
“Humiliation?” Ling Chen smiled faintly, completely unfazed by the whispers and mockery around him.
To Ling Chen, compared to the humiliations he suffered while doing summer temp jobs, this young lady’s scolding felt more like flirtation.
And then he heard the most beautiful sound in the world— [Ding! Beautiful Girl Review Cashback System, Daily Task One completed. Reward: 200 yuan. This month’s full attendance days have been met. Full attendance bonus expected to be disbursed on the 1st of next month!]
“No, I can’t laugh yet.” Ling Chen held back his smile.
In just 12 hours, he would get his full attendance bonus, and his tuition for this semester would be covered.
Ling Chen had spent all his tuition money for the semester at the very start, chasing his dream of making games, and his living expenses were in a major crisis.
Once he got the full attendance bonus, he would definitely treat himself to a nice buffet—spending a whole 75 yuan. So extravagant~
“You did a great job. Thank you for your hard work, Mr. Ling.”
The maid, dressed in an exquisite black-and-white uniform, appeared on the road where Ling Chen was heading home.
“Thank you for your trust and recognition, Miss Su. At 04 Everything House, we believe in exchanging sincerity for your good review.” Seeing his employer, Ling Chen relaxed a bit.
No matter how many times he saw her, Ling Chen felt that this maid was truly a sight to behold.
Once he finished his system tasks, he would enjoy the life of the rich, hiring seven or eight beautiful girls as maids.
“In that case, Mr. Ling, our three-month collaboration comes to an end here. I’ll transfer the remaining 1,500 yuan, along with the reimbursement for materials, to your Alipay. Thank you for your efforts in driving away the pests surrounding my young lady.”
The maid gave a slight bow.
Ling Chen quickly returned the courtesy, already mentally calculating in his mind. This time, he wouldn’t just have a buffet—he’d add a cup of Mixue Ice City soda too!
But Ling Chen waited and waited, and still didn’t hear the completion reminder from his Beautiful Girl Review Cashback System.
“Something’s off, System. I closed this task—why haven’t I gotten the cashback?” After nearly ten minutes of waiting, Ling Chen couldn’t hold back and asked.
[Ding! Host, your task has been closed, but you did not obtain 80% satisfaction from the task target—Chu Xiaoxiao. Therefore, it cannot be counted as completed, and it cannot enter the cumulative progress bar.]
Ling Chen couldn’t help but twitch the corner of his mouth. You mean I need to earn the satisfaction of the most foul-tempered young lady in the entire academy? Even if I worked for another year, I couldn’t do it.
Three months of hard work, and he had only unlocked the first stage of satisfaction.
Ling Chen let out a deep sigh and looked helplessly at his crude, unintelligent system.
Other people’s systems were things like the Dragon King System or the Medical Immortal System.
His, on the other hand, not only had a strange name—the Beautiful Girl Review Cashback System—but wasn’t even smart. The person who placed the order was the maid, yet the task required the satisfaction of the target to count as a good review.
Ling Chen needed to complete tasks assigned by beautiful girls and earn their genuine praise. Each completed task would give him a corresponding cash reward, and when he completed ten, there would be an astonishing 1 billion yuan, granting him financial freedom in one step.
Ling Chen, who had been lamenting how hard it was to work, especially with his summer wage being docked, instantly regained his motivation. After all, it was 1 billion—1 billion!
Not only would he escape the hardship of summer jobs, but it would also help him fulfill his childhood dream: creating a proper blockbuster game.
After getting this system, Ling Chen started trying to make some simpler games, thanks to the extra financial support.
He set up a minimal order-taking webpage online and named his small shop 04 Everything House—a homophone for “Ling’s”—with clear pricing and low rates. He only accepted commissions from women, and he’d take on any job.
This maid was his very first client. The task: get close to this young lady from the same school and confess to her daily.
Because she was the eldest daughter of Tianyun Group and had a super beautiful appearance, there were always boys confessing to her.
So the maid had asked him to act as her simp, to reduce the number of other boys who wanted to confess, and to show them the consequences of trying.
“Alipay received 3,000 yuan!” The maid always transferred payments quickly.
“Why does it have to be a lose-lose? Your bias makes me feel kinda down~” Ling Chen hummed a cheerful little tune. Just then, a WeChat message came in.
A cute panda head icon flashed with a message: “I’ve finished drawing all the character designs for the game. Want to come over and take a look? And ‘feed’ me too~”
The sender was An Xin, the artist Ling Chen had hired.
An Xin was actually the daughter of a friend of Ling Chen’s parents. They had met after both enrolling in the same university, thanks to their parents’ connection.
“Come to think of it, because I’ve been so busy chasing Chu Xiaoxiao, I haven’t looked for An Xin in almost a week. I really need to check on her. Otherwise, I’m afraid she’ll die in her rented room.” Ling Chen thought of An Xin’s expression and couldn’t help but purse his lips slightly.
