Chirp! Chirp!

The wind was cold and the sun started to rise from the east. The birds woke up and tried to announce that a new day had arrived.

Xie Samuel woke up by the sound of the birds. The room was dark and cold. Slight light was coming from the window. Xie Samuel understood that it wasn't morning yet.

Though it was cold, Xie Samuel felt warm as he was holding a human flesh. He looked at the woman in his arms who was sleeping soundly. His heart suddenly filled with warmth and an emotion he couldn't describe. He gently flipped her over on the other side of the bed, she frowned a little bit when she felt the cold bed sheet instead of his warmth. He gently stroked her hair, then stood up from the bed, before placing a pillow around her hands. She hugged the pillow tightly, thinking that it might be Xie Samuel. He chuckled seeing her childish behaviour. His heart melted at this site. He placed a kiss on her forehead, before entering the washroom to freshen-up. 

After thirty minutes, he came out of the washroom. He looked at his sleeping beauty who was sleeping soundly on the bed. He glanced at her before heading towards his study room, next door. He flipped through some of the documents, signed on some of the them and then for the rest of the time he kept on working on his computer. He worked till the time, when Tanie woke up in the morning.

At nine in the morning, when sun light peeped inside the room from the window, it made the dark room lightened. She stirred a bit in bed, before opening her eyes. The first thing which she noticed, after waking up in the morning, was to look beside her on the opposite side of the bed. The opposite side of the bed seemed to be cold. 

'He might be working in his study room.' She thought before rubbing her head in a sleepy manner. She still felt a little bit sleepy. But it was already nine in the morning, how long does she wanted to sleep now? She rubbed her eyes, then placed her legs down to wear her slippers before entering into the washroom to get fresh.

After half an hour, she came out of the washroom freshly bathed, wearing a bath robe. Her long hair was dumped wet and the fragrance of the spread across the room.  She stood in front of her dressing table to dry her hair with a towel in her hand. Later she applied her body lotion, then changed into a cotton dress. She walked downstairs, to prepare a mug of coffee for both of them. After fifteen  minutes she ran upstairs, holding mug in each of her hands, towards his study room. She was about to knock on the door, but suddenly she stopped her hands in the middle of the air, when she saw the room was slightly opened. She pushed the door to open it, with her legs, and frowned when she entered the room.

Just as she walked into the study room, she looked around but Samuel was nowhere to found. She frowned, then turned around. Suddenly, she felt a cool breeze attack her. Subconsciously, she shivered a little and turned. She noticed that there was a gap in the French windows leading to the balcony. She was puzzled and quickly made her way there. To her surprise, she saw Xie Samuel standing tall in the wind by the railing as he looked up at the sky outside.

When he heard footsteps behind him, Xie Samuel unhurriedly turned around. Upon seeing Xie Tanie, who stood by the window watching him, he thought about something. He smiled gently, then, he hurled out a hand to her while saying, "Come over here!"

Xie Tanie's brows raised slightly. She quietly looked at the hand that he extended to her. She extended her left hand to hand him his coffee mug. He took the coffee mug from her hand, then pulled her towards him. She followed him wherever he pulled her. Then, she stopped by his side.

"Such good weather's hard to come by. Normally, neither can you see this kind of skyline in the city, nor the air is this fresh."

He was in a pretty good mood.

Xie Tanie looked up at the azure horizon to see a soft, golden light pouring down from the sky. She could not help but nod gently and answer calmly, "Seeing such a weather puts one in a pretty happy mood."

He shot her a side look as he lifted the hand holding his coffee mug and sipped his coffee before commenting calmly, "Why are you up so early?"

Xie Tanie's brows raised slighlty, before she asked him back, "Are you teasing me for getting up late?"

He chuckled hearing her response. He replied while stroking her back, "When have I ever teased you? It's still a bit early. You worked hard yesterday to suprise me, you should have rested more."

"I've been resting too much the past few days. I suddenly felt like I've slept enough, so I just woke up. Ohh right, by the way, how is the company doing? You seem to work a lot lately." Xie Tanie asked him calmly while turning her head towards him, leaning on his shoulder.

"Everything is on track. Why do you ask? Wifey, don't worry, I will earn enough money to feed our children." He smirked and looked into her dark eyes before replying to her.

Hearing his response, she chuckled softly, before she shooked her head helplessly.

'He is already the CEO of the company, yet he thinks he will not be having enough money to feed their children. And on top of that, we both are earning.' 

"I didn't meant that. By the way, when can I join the company back. I am bored by staying at home all the time. I just need something to divert my mind. Also, I have recovered enough, so there won't be any problem if I start working now. Right?"

"Okay!! If you want to join the company, I won't stop you but before that, you need to get a full body check-up before that. I'll ask Yu Jin to come here and check on you tomorrow." Xie Samuel agreed to her request with one condition.

"Ohh, you don't have to worry for that. I already requested him to come today to do the check-up. That way, we can enjoy ourselves tomorrow." Xie Tanie replied to him quickly as soon as he finished his part.

'Seems like she prepared everything beforehand.' He shook his head helplessly, before caressing her cheeks with his thumbs.

"Okay!! I'm going downstairs to prepare breakfast. Quickly, finish your work and come down in half an hour." She patted his head the way he always does, then went out of the study room.

After she went out of the room, Xie Samuel locked the door behind her and took out his phone. He glanced at the phone for a while, before making a call. 

After few rings the call was picked.

"Boss!!" 

"Pull out the shares!" With one simple sentence, Xie Samuel ended the call and headed downstairs to help his wifey in the kitchen.

EDEN ESTATES.
SAINT VILLA.
The alarmed went off waking Aaron up abruptly. He stretched his hand to the table and picked the phone turning off the alarm. As he put the phone back he felt movement under the blanket and immediately lifted the quilt and got startled to see Mai sound asleep. 

Aaron frowned and thought back to the night before. Because he didn't want to sleep in the same bed with Mai, he intentionally got home late and made sure he locked the room before going to bed after checking to ensure that Mai was sound asleep in her room only to wake up and see her in his bed again.

It looked like she really ignored all his warning and still sneaked in to sleep in his room but, where could she have gotten the key from? He thought. Aaron sighed and got down from the bed and quickly went into his closet to dress properly. It seemed he could no longer sleep in only his undergarments because of Mai.

Aaron got out dressed casually and saw Mai sitting on the bed. Mai smiled at him saying 'I kept my promise right? I pretended to be asleep so that you could change comfortably before I opened my eyes. I did well, right?'

Aaron walked to the bed and pulled her up saying 'you…didn't I tell you not to come into my room again?'

'And I told you I couldn't sleep alone. It's too scary and I get nightmares'.

'I definitely locked the door before going to bed. How did you get in?'

'Oh, that? I knew you would do something like that, so, I made my own key from a mental I bought at the shop outside the villa. I told you, I'm very smart'. 
Mai smiled and Aaron became frustrated and pointed at the door.

'Get out, right now, this minute'. 

'Okay'. Mai walked to the door and turned to speak to him as she opened the door 'Mr. Saint, you should sleep with clothes from now onwards, since we are now two using the bed and I wouldn't want to accidentally touch it'.
 Mai blinked innocently as she said it.

'I know, just get out'. Mai ran out as Aaron screamed at her.

MIND HEALTH HOSPITAL.
Mai got out of the car and stood next to Aaron. She looked at the hospital sign board and turned to Aaron saying.
'Are you seriously bringing me to see a psychiatrist?'

'Yes, you're dangerous for my health, let's go in'. Aaron held Mai's hand and walked in before she could even protest.
Mai scanned the room as Dr. Sam looked at her. Mai walked to a picture of a family of three and spoke as her. 

'Doctor, is this your family?' Dr. Sam smiled bitterly as he spoke.

'Yes, my wife and daughter'.

'You have a beautiful wife and a pretty daughter but…?' Mai turned and looked at him as she continued 'why do you sound sad?'

'What did you say?' Dr. Sam looked at Mai as she walked to take a seat in front of him.

'I asked why you look sad when you have such a beautiful family?'

'Because, they are not with me'.

'Are they out of the City?'

'No, they are dead. They died in an accident seven years ago'.

'I'm sorry, I'm not usually nosy'.

'Is okay. I'm totally over them, I just missed them since today is their dead anniversary'.

'Today? Then, why are you at work and not at home. times like this, you shouldn't be working'.

'I know, but, my curiosity got the best of me. I decided to come because of you'.

'Do you know me?'

'This is our first meeting'.

'I know, but, you spoke as if we've seen each other before'

'Dr. Kash sent me your file and I studied it before'.

'Oh, I see. Alright, I'm sorry for taking your time when you should be mourning'.

'Don't be sorry, my daughter had panic disorder before she died. When I heard about you, it reminded me of her, I had to meet you and I'm also curious about you'.

'You're curious about me or my condition?'

'Both'

'Why? Why are you curious about me?'

Dr. Sam looked at Mai and thought to him 'because I saw you in a picture with my daughter'. He smiled and picked a chocolate bar from his fridge and gave to Mai saying.

'Eat this, I'm sure you must be nervous since this is our first meeting?'

'You see right through me, thank you'.
 Mai unwrapped the chocolate bar and started mooching on it.

'So, Mai, can you tell me about yourself?'

'I don't have anything to say. If doctor has something you want to talk about just speak. You must have a lot to say since today is a memorable day for you?'

'You also seem interested in me?'

'Is that how it seems? Maybe it could be the picture of your daughter. She…gets to me in a way. Funny, right?'

'Could you have known her somehow?'

'What? No way. There is no way I would have known her. Seven years ago, I was probably not even in this City. What is her name?'

'Next time you visit, I will tell you her name and answer any question you have about her'.

'Are you throwing a bait at me?'

'Is it working?'

'No, don't. The next time we meet? It might not be me. Doctor, you know, right? I have DID. Next time, it could be any of my sisters and I doubt they would want to meet you. Honestly, I didn't know we were coming here? Let's say, I got fooled?'

'Really?'

'Yes. My sisters hate doctors. I don't like them either, but, I like science that's why I'm even having this conversation with you'.

'I see. So Mai, before you go, can you answer one question for me?'

'Sure, since is just one question, but, it can't be two or three because I will get angry'

'Sure. I want to know. Do you and your sisters share the same memory?'

'No'. Mai answered as a matter of fact and got up with her bag adding 'that's it for today, right?'

'Yes, since you don't want me to ask more than one question'.

'Good. Thanks for the chocolate, see you next time'.

'Take care Mai'. 

Dr. Sam took out a picture of two girls in a senior high school uniforms as soon as Mai went out. Dr. Sam looked at the picture. It was a picture of August Maijune and Julieta holding flowers with smiles. 
Dr. Sam murmured as he looked at the picture 'what connection do you have with my daughter, August Maijune. Why didn't she ever mention of you?'.

It was definitely love at first sight for August Maijune the day she first saw Aaron Saint in the hospital ward. 

Waking up suddenly from a coma after an accident, August realised she didn’t remember anything about her life and who she really was. The only person she relies on is Aaron Saint who claims to be her guardian.

Aaron Saint was one of the richest single men in D-City. With looks that could put even the most beautiful women to shame, he literally screams money. With a cold exterior, he keeps women at bay but there is just one woman he allows in his life and that is August Maijune. 

After, almost running over her five years ago with his car, he had taken responsibility to take care of August until she remembers who she was.
The two of them begin a romance which is not so ordinary yet thrilling. But, who is August Maijune actually? And how is she going to affect the daily life of
 Aaron Saint?

‘Are you married?’
‘No’
‘Do you have a girlfriend?’
‘No’
‘Do you have a sister who is not really a sister and she is in love with you?’
‘No’
‘Then, am I allowed to fall for you? I think I’m in love with you.’
‘You’re the first woman to be this bold towards me’

This is a romance story about a man who was betrayed by love and a woman who can’t remember her past.

"No, please don't leave us," Mei Li's voice echoed. 

She flew forward towards the gigantic boss without a care for her life. 

All the girls were behind her as Lui Mei's hands were shaking. She didn't even get a chance to see if her long heal worked. If only she used a few more SP points to purchase the higher ranked one, instead of buying the cheaper version, he'd still be alright. 

Basically, [Long Heal] had a 95% chance of restoring 5% of someone's Hp. However, there was a 5% chance of it not working, which was why it was cheaper. However, there was no way her luck could be that bad! 

Lie Wei Ying looked down at the blade in his body. He felt like he was starting to fade away. However, then he noticed he still had some HP.

There was many numbers he had seen on the bar before. However, this was his first time seeing 1 HP. Apparently, he only got 1 Hp from when Mui Lei healed him. That one percent chance of it not working really implied it didn't work much. However, Lie Wei Ying still had one hp.

The Fortnight Trio-form dominatrix couldn't believe it. Her sexy clothes and her one eye that worked were both trembling. All she had to do was sink her teeth into his back, and this little boy would die! However, before she could she saw his hand start to move. It was as if six hands birthed from that one hand, and then thirty. 

"Gush x 36,669"

Lie Wei Ying's eyes were red as he madly slashed at the lady with the Super Dao of Breakthroughs mixing in with his other daos.

All of them seemed to be tuning into the guidance the Super Dao provided, and his domain was also growing more powerful. 

Even the inferno image behind him felt more powerful as his shadow blade slashed at the woman with anger.

"Boom! Boom!"

The last sight the fortnight trio-form dominatrix saw was a sword stabbing into the eyeless part of her face. She felt so degraded, however, she was unable to do anything about it. Unfortunately, Lei Wei Ying got even stronger near the edge of death. 

"Gush x 7000."

The red blood of the three sisters sprouted into the air and towards Lei Wei Ying's face. However, before it could land on him he moved away. He had been harmed by blood before, and decided to play it safe. He instantly appeared behind her back, and mercilessly killed her with a kick to the back of her head.


She spun downward towards the mountain as her clothes were torn just enough to see her beautiful back. However, then she crashed and died. The rocks covered her back, and he could no longer see the writing on it.

Regardless, the girls didn't care about the stupid text on the ladies back. Even if it was clue on how to speed up this dungeon, which it was, they only cared about Lei Wei Ying. They flew towards him so fast he thought they were different girls. "Since when did he get five new girls", he wondered?   

 However, they only looked different because of the tears on their eyes. 

"Congratulations you've killed the fortnight trio-form dominatrix."

"Exp + 1,000,000,000,000 due to level difference of over 30 levels. Boost times 10 applied."

"Congratulations, you've leveled up to level 80! Estimated Rank has increased to Emperor Rank 9. Tribulation will commence when exiting the game system."

Lie Wei Ying smiled as he watched his stats go up. 

Lie Wei Ying

Level 80

HP 10,005,000 -> 60,000,000

 Strength 1,700 -> 8,056

Agility 976 -> 5,600

Dexterity 850 -> 4,100

Energy 1,020 -> 6,020

Qi: 6,700 -> 24,550

Intelligence 6 -> 15 (+20)

Defense: 25,000 -> 90,000

Regardless, the girls arrived around him and he felt ten distinct size mounds push into his weakened body. He was in so much pain it hurt, however, he didn't mind the hugs. He'd only known these girls for a day roughly, but that was a long time for someone as powerful as him. He appreciated every millionth of a second like it was a second. Yes, the more powerful you are the better your perception.

"So, Lei Wei Ying, how should we punish you," Mei Li said. She hugged him extremely hard. So hard he was afraid he'd lose his one remaining Hp. However, before then Lie Mei began healing him as her hands caressed his back.

She'd been wanting to have someone to use this healing cream on forever. And now she had Lie Wei Ying. It was a gold rank healing cream meant for girls to give to their harem leaders. It also contained a slight aphrodisiac. However, she didn't think it would bother him much.

Lie Wei Ying hummed as this was happening. 

Finally, his HP slowly began going back up, and eventually he was back at full health.

However, it took about twenty minutes of the girls rubbing his back one after another with Liu Mei's precious healing potion. Though it didn't bother her much, she wondered why the aphrodisiac wasn't working. It was like their master was immune to the herbs inside of it. 

Regardless, Lie Wei Ying embraced the massage before he looked and noticed the chest by the pretty boss's body. He pointed towards it as the girls sighed. It looked like today he didn't want a reward. It was usually custom the harem reward their leader after big boss battles. However, they could understand it was most likely the p.i.g. systems fault. If only the customization option worked, they could enjoy many things together!

Lie Wei Ying, on the other hand, was just glad he got his HP back. He also felt slightly strange but didn't think much of it. The aphrodisiac would work differently on him. Yet, the girls didn't realize his age, there was a special warning to not use the cream on anyone below 20! Lie Wei Ying would soon find out what it was. Yet, he couldn't think about it. He dug up the chest and tossed the bosses body away. He had no need for such a silly prize.

"So, girls, how do you open it Lie Wei Ying said?"

Mei Li just laughed before she kicked it once. "All you have to do is touch it Lie Wei Ying. Have you never seen a chest before?"

He nodded his head. "I'll remember that. This is indeed my first chest!" He smiled as he rubbed his hands together. He could only imagine all the legendary items he would receive. He really wanted some new shoes!

"Congratulations, you've received the training bed of the fortnight sisters. Rank Legendary!!"

"You've received 50,000 magic stones!"

Lie Wei Ying, at this moment, wanted to crunch at the air as a gigantic bed appeared out of the small box.

It seemed to defy all logic that his prize would be a silly bed. 

What was the point of killing bosses if all he got was prizes like this! Even the matriarch he killed gave him some armor. What exactly could you do as a harem leader with a training bed? Did you sleep on it, or engage in hugging? It was incredibly unbelievable to him that you could train on a bed.

Yet, the girls behind him were shocked by the golden glow.

It was a legendary Harem training bed! You could do so many things on that to make the girls on your team powerful! However, they wouldn't be able to find out until Lie Wei Ying stopping shouting. They understood he was happy, but their seemed to be quite a lot of rage in his voice. Perhaps because he was still in his boy form, this was a horrible thing for him?

"Why a bed? Out of all things a bed," he yelled. 

However, then one of the girls pushed him onto the bed. They all smiled at him as they got ready for some dubious training.

What is overpowered? Overpowered is Lie Wei Ying. He is a man who will become a god!

He receives a system called Overpowered. What does it do? Well, it makes the main character overpowered. So what if someone is five stages higher than you. Lie Wei Ying doesn't care. Fighting a mountain as a ten year old child? Give him ten chapters and he'll make the mountain a canyon. Give him a hundred chapters, and maybe even the gods will grovel.

"You've unlocked the overpowered system!"

Warning, the overpowered system is not available till chapter 5. Please wait as it loads...

*Main character has also reincarnated seventeen times*

He's also kind of evil...

Year 2095.

Imperial City, Downtown Area.

Yonmu Imperial Hospital.

In a VIP room, we currently find a young man in his twenties resting on a bed with a few machines beside him making beeping sounds. This young man could not be considered as handsome but he was above average in looks.

He has short, black hair and dark brown skin, signifying that he's of mixed descent. His body could not be called bulky or muscular since his body was more on the slim side but he does have some well developed muscles underneath his hospital gown so lean would be what most people used.

He was fairly tall, reaching 183cm in height and weighed roughly 70kg. Currently, there were a few cords sticking out of his arms, connected to the machines next to the bed and he was sleeping quite peacefully with no change to the peace of the room.

A few minutes later, however, we find the young man jumping up from his sleep and instantly surveying the room around him with a sharp but cautious glint in his eyes. Finding no one around him, the young man eased a bit of the caution from his eyes, but he then started checking out the various things in the room he did not recognize.

His eyes passed over the various machines making noises in the room as well as the cords connecting his body to said machines with a bit of curiosity but did not touch them. He then looked around the room, which was in a bright white color and saw the sunlight peering through the gaps in the curtains covering the windows. Seeing that the surroundings weren't a threat and that he was in a medical facility of some sort being treated, the young man returned to lying back down in the bed and going over his thoughts.

'What the hell happened to me? How am I still alive?'

The young man thought back to his final memory before blacking out, which was of him fighting Alladin next to the river. He remembered killing the man before falling into the river back first. He even remembered having settled on the bottom of the river bed and releasing his final sigh in that life. 

Up to there the young man had no trouble remembering but as soon as he tried to think of what happened next, he immediately struck with a sense of realization, followed by a splitting headache. He remembered, just before blacking out, there was a red glow emanating from his body and that it was coming from where he had that mysterious bead on his body. He had no time to dwell on this thought, however, as the headache forced him to black out once again, only this time his body slightly twitching in a few places.

...

One hour later.

Currently we find a young woman in her mid to late twenties walking up to the VIP room. Beside this woman we find a few men dressed in black suits shadowing her. As they got to the room door, the woman turned to the men and gave them a nod before entering the room. The men, in turn took up their places outside the door, waiting for the woman's return.

Inside the room, we find the young woman look at the young man currently asleep on the bed. Seeing that he wasn't awake, the young woman went and opened the curtains a bit to let more light into the room. She also cracked open the windows to allow fresh air to enter. Completely unaware to the woman was that the young man on the bed was currently eyeing through the small gaps between his eyelids.

The young man was aware of the woman's presence the moment she and her entourage neared his bedroom door but pretended to be asleep to see what she planned to do. 

In his eyes, he saw a woman that would attract the attention of males anywhere she went. She looked tall for a woman, roughly 172cm and was dressed in a conservative dark blue dress suit. She was slim and had shoulder length black hair. She had on a pair of square glasses on her face covering her sharp eyes on her oval shaped face. Her body was slim and the dress suit stopped just above the knees of her long legs. In short, the woman was a cool beauty.

After eyeing the woman for a bit while she worked, the young man went back to sorting out the memories he received from that massive influx of pain the headache from an hour before had given him. During this time the woman sat down on a chair nearby the bed and took out a book to read.

For the next twenty minutes or so, the young man sorted out the memories he received from the headache. In the memories, he learned about the owner of the body he was currently in, Wang Xu. He learned that the young man, like him, was an orphan. He grew up in an orphanage during his early years. 

He was eventually adopted during his grade school years by an elderly couple but even they didn't stay in his life for too long as they passed on while he was attending high school years later. After finishing high school, Wang Xu had to immediately start working as he had no money to attend college. After a few years of working odd jobs, he eventually ended up working for this security company and assigned to the unit attached to the Sanming Gaming Studio.

Looking at the memories up to here, the young man couldn't help but feel somewhat rueful at how similar both his and Wang Xu's lives were. The only difference is that unlike Wang Xu who died in his twenties, the young man managed to live twice as long and was starting to contemplate retirement before he died. Besides that, their lives were just that similar.

After figuratively shaking his head free of distractions, the young man then looked up how exactly Wang Xu met his end. He was on his way home when he saw a few women being harassed by a group of men. Normally he wouldn't have taken that route home but this time he was in a rush and just so happened to come across this event, so he decided to call the cops and help the women in the mean time.

After calling the cops and giving them his current location, Wang Xu confronted the group as a means of buying time. Eventually a fight broke out and Wang Xu managed to take down a few of the men before he was eventually hit over the head from behind by a member of the group who wasn't present before. Apparently the hit was severe enough to draw blood and this caused the group to run away before things got any worse.

That hit, however, was enough to cause Wang Xu's death and by the time the ambulance showed up he was already long gone. The only reason he wasn't considered dead on site was because the body apparently still had a heartbeat and he was then rushed to a hospital where he underwent surgery and had been resting ever since.

While going through those memories, the young man noticed something strange. While no one was looking and after Wang Xu had died, he noticed that there was a brief flash of red that appeared in Wang Xu's body and it was this flash of red that caused him to retain his heartbeat. When he tried to focus even further on what that flash of red was, something appeared in the young man's mind. This something caused the young man to instantly jump up in the bed, startling the woman reading her book next to him. The reason for this is because the young man recognized what that something was. It was the bead he was charged with retrieving during his last mission.

Now that he's jumped up and startled the woman next to him, the young man couldn't just pretend to be asleep anymore, so he started surveying the room as if he's puzzled why he is in a hospital. Seeing his reaction, the bespectacled young woman pushed a button on a remote next to the bed before turning to the young man.

"Good afternoon, Mr Wang. How are you feeling?"

"My head feels a bit fuzzy. Apart from that and a few aches and pains on my body, i'm doing just fine. Thanks for asking."

The young woman nodded and just as she was about to say something else the doctor and a few nurses entered the room. After looking at the bed and noticing that the young man was awake, the doctor and the nurses approached him. While the nurses were preparing materials to do some tests, the doctor spoke to the young man.

"Good day, Mr Wang. I am Dr. Sing and I am the one in charge of your treatment. How are you feeling now that you are up?"

"Hello Dr Sing. As I have just told this young lady here, besides my head feeling a bit fuzzy and a few aches and pains on my body due to lack of use, I'm doing just fine." After saying this the young man adjusted his position on the bed so that he's current sitting up.

"Very good, Mr Wang. That fuzzy feeling in your head should pass within a few hours and those other aches will be eased when you start exercising later. Seeing that you are currently awake, do you mind if we run some tests to check up on your health?"

"By all means." As the young man said this, the young woman from before took her book and made her way towards the door.

"I'll be back to check on you later, Mr Wang." Without waiting for the young man's response, the bespectacled woman left the room so that the doctor and nurses can carry out their tests unhindered. The young man watched as she left then shrugged before allowing himself to be checked by the hospital staff.

.....

Outside the VIP room, the woman nodded at the bodyguards before walking away, the men following after her. As she was walking, she took out her cellphone and made a call. 

"He's awake Sir."

'What is his current state like?'

"Nothing serious so far, Sir. If all goes well, he should be fully recovered in a few days."

'Very good. Keep monitoring him until he's released from the hospital and make sure nothing happens to him. Those are the orders from the young miss.'

"Understood Sir." 

After hanging up the phone, the woman continued on her way and left the hospital with the security detail in tow.

.....

After a few more days of rest within the hospital, The young man was given a clean bill of health and finally allowed to leave. When he asked about payment, he was told that the bill was already covered by the woman who payed him a visit a few days prior. At first he was a bit surprised but after remembering what she had talked to him about later that evening, he shrugged it off and slowly made his way home.

In the few days that he's been awake, the young man or Kirou was able to sort through and fully absorb all of Wang Xu's memories. Feeling that the young man's life ended way too quickly and realizing that he himself now had a new lease on life, Kirou decided that he would live out Wang Xu's life for him.

As he thought this, Kirou, or rather, Wang Xu started coming up with plans on what he should be doing next. Unlike his previous life where he lived like an assassin, Wang Xu decided that he would live a slow and steady life this time. 

Looking through his memories, he noticed that the security job that the previous Wang Xu had wasn't all that stressful so continuing with it wouldn't be an issue in the long run. At the very least it could provide him with some stability.

Next on his list was finding a means to train his body. Though he wanted a slow and relaxing life,  Kirou understood very well that one's safety can only be assured by oneself so he wanted to make sure what happened to the previous Wang Xu won't happen to him.

Lastly, he now had to decide on what he should do as a hobby. As opposed to his previous life where he worked as blacksmith among other things in his free time, he currently lived in a world where such things aren't the norm so he had to find something else to occupy his time.

As he was thinking this, Kirou couldn't help but noticing an advertisement broadcast for a new video game on a billboard across the street from him. The game broadcast showcased many elements similar to things from his previous life, including his old hobbies. Kirou couldn't help but marvel at that fact and made a mental note to look up the details for that game later on.

Even when one travels the path of slaughter, they cannot help but reminisce of the days when they were still young and naive. They long for the days when they can put the killing behind them and just rest in a town far away, where no one knows them and where they no longer have to deal in bloodshed. These thoughts always come as a form of longing for all whose hands are stained with untold amounts of blood.

Wang Xu was just your average security guard working for a security firm. He was assigned to the group currently tasked with guarding a gaming company. Feeling curious about the allure of these games, he one day buys the gear for the newest game on the market, Immortal Era, in order to try it out. 

Sadly, this curiosity of his would go unsolved as he died that same evening rescuing some women from robbers. A few days later he awakens, but it wasn't Wang Xu that woke up. Instead, it was a mysterious individual from another world know as Kirou. Realizing that he didn't know where he was plus being assaulted by memories he knows aren't his, Kirou eventually comes to terms that he has now taken over the body of this youth and will now have to live as him.

Feeling that this is the start of a new life for him, Kirou resolved to live this life as peacefully as possible as Wang Xu. He also decided to solve Wang Xu's curiosity by trying out the new game he bought in his stead.

Follow Kirou in his journey to live a relaxing life and see how many people keep trying to get in the way of that.

WARNING: DO NOT OPEN! 
The great advantage of early rising is the good start it gives us in our day's work. The early riser has done a large amount of hard work before other men have got out of bed. In the early morning the mind is fresh, and there are few sounds or other distractions, so that work done at that time is generally well done.
In many cases the early riser also finds time to take some exercise in the fresh morning air, and this exercise supplies him a fund of energy that will lost until the evening. By beginning so early, he knows that he has plenty of time to do thoroughly all the work he can be expected to do, and is not tempted to hurry over any part of it. All his work being finished in good time, he has a long interval of rest in the evening before the timely hour when he goes to bed. He gets to sleep several hours before midnight, at the time when sleep is most refreshing and after a sound night's rest, rises early next morning in good health and spirits for the labours of a new day.
It is very plain that such a life as this is far more conducive to health than that of the man who shortenes his waking hours by rising late, and so can afford in the course of the day little leisure for necessary rest. Any one who lies in bed late, must, if he wishes to do a full day's work, go on working to a correspondingly late hour, and deny himself the hour or two of evening exercise that he ought to take for the benefit of his health. But in spite of all his efforts, he will probably produce as good results as the early riser, because he misses the best working hours of the day.
It may be objected to this that some find the perfect quiet of midnight by far the best time for working. This is no doubt true in certain cases. Several great thinkers have found by experience that their intellect is clearest, and they can write best, when they burn the midnight oil. But even in such cases the practice of working late at night cannot be commended. Few men, if any, can exert the full power of their intellect at the time when nature prescribes sleep, without ruining their health thereby; and of course the injury done to the health must in the long run have a bad effect on the quantity of the work done.

When they entered the room, a woman was sitting on the couch chatting happily with a naked man that was cuffed on the bed.

Layla went forward to kiss the woman on the lips, "Hey, Judge J." 

Judge J smiled as she looked at Kai Xin who were staring horrifically at the man cuffed on the bed, "Is that the kid you talked about?" 

"Yeah."

She bent down and kissed Layla's tummy before saying, "I will let you take over from here, but take care of our baby." 

Layla nodded as she watched the woman she loved left the room.

After Judge J closed the door behind her, Layla turned to Kai Xin and brought her to the bed. 

Kai Xin stammered as she backed herself against the wall, "L-Layla...W-What this..." 

"Don't worry about this, Kai Xin. Ricky here is an escort that the Judge and I used when we were young."

Kai Xin nodded weakly, "Why did you bring me here?"

"Don't you want to take back the control that you lost?" 

"What?" 

Layla smiled as she sat next to Ricky on the bed, 

"I won't force you to tell me if you don't want to, but if you want to continue working for me, if you want to continue working in this line of business, then you need to find a way to contain your nightmare. We don't just deal with women, we deal with men too. If you treated them like how you treated your colleagues, how would they feel?"

"I-I won't - " 

With louder voice, Layla interrupted her, "Our clients, they were victimized by others and yet you looked at them as if they were the villain. How would that make them feel?" 

Kai Xin gripped onto her pants as she tried to prevent the tears from falling, "I-I didn't mean to..."

"Kai Xin, I want you to know that I am always here if you need to talk to someone, but if you don't want to, I won't force you..." 

Layla took her hand and cooed, "Just promise me that you would try to do something about it. Don't let your fear control you. Don't allow them to continue to shackle you down with invisible chains."

Kai Xin nodded. However, she glanced at Ricky before murmuring, "I don't want to do it to him..."

Ricky expertly released himself from his confinement. He put on his pants before passing his name card to her. With a smile that reflected his boyish charm, he said, 

"I'm a willing man and you know what? Give me a call anytime you want. I'll give you a discount. I'm always happy to help out someone in need."

Kai Xin stared at the name card for a long time before accepting it. She wanted to be braver. 

She wanted to stop being afraid. 

She wanted to take back the control that they took from her. 

It took her a long time before she found the courage to call Ricky for the first time. 

At first, it was her and Ricky and with either Layla and Judge J hanging around while those two talked. 

Slowly, once she learned how not to fear his presence and his touch, it was just her and Ricky. 

After about a year, she and Ricky finally had sex for the first time with her on top of him. 

Even when she graduated from Ricky and moved on to the others, she would still be on top. 

No matter how much she grew to trust them, she was unable to bear the thought of being under any of them. 

With them, she felt safest when she took charge and had total control over her own body. 

....

Layla turned to DX who had a stupid besotted and contented look on him as he watched the interaction between Kai Xin and the children.

She had never seen such an expression on him in the 35 years since she met him, and it had amazed her that her best friend was capable of having such emotions.

DX felt her stare and without turning around, he taunted, "You know, you missed out the window of opportunity. My eyes are for my Kara only now."

"..." Layla pretended to gag before saying, "Please! Judge is better than you in every way! Also, guess what? You are the reason I turned gay."

DX glared at her.

Folding her arms, Layla glared back at him, "What? It's the truth."

DX ignored her and walked over to Kai Xin. He had to fly out later and he preferred to spend all his time with his lover instead of spending another second with the crazy woman next to him.

With a frown, she said, "I don't think it would be comfortable to sleep on the couch."

"I thought you have a bed here?" asked DX.

"I do but it's a single-size bed." 

With a mischievous glint in his eyes, he smirked, "We can share." 

Pretending to be affronted, Kai Xin scoffed, "President Du! Behave yourself! Did I say that you can share MY bed?"

The doctors at Ling Ran's treatment group started to work at three in the morning. 
Yun Hua Emergency Medical Center gradually stirred to life.
A courier walked into Yun Hua Emergency Medical Center and went to the reception desk before he asked, "Did you order some fried liver, bittern flapjack, and a roasted donkey?"
"Doctor Ling Ran ordered them, you can just put them inside." A nurse at the reception desk pointed to the inside while she was still busy making records. 
The courier nodded and rubbed his sleepy eyes. He then walked toward the direction where the nurse pointed him off.
As the courier passed by the room labeled as 'treatment room', he heard someone say "intestines".
He took a turn as he thought with his sleepy three-in-the-morning brain. 
"Which one of you ordered intestines?" the courier said as he drew a curtain.
There was a man, who lay on the bed, and also Yu Yuan, who stood by the bed. They looked at the courier.
The courier was stunned as his gaze was fixed at the patient's butt, as well as the intestine between the doctor's gloves.
"What the heck… you…" The courier shrieked.
The man who lay on the bed pursed his mouth. "You're making a big fuss out of nothing."
Yu Yuan sanitized his intestines and stuffed them back as she said, "You can go home and rest. Make an appointment with the Colorectal Department or General Surgery Department as soon as possible."
"Understood. Can't you just transfer me directly to the Colorectal Department?"
"Then you have to wait until the morning working hours. I'll get someone from the General Surgery Department to give you a consultation." Yu Yuan would not call up someone so early in the morning for this kind of non-emergencies. 
The man who lay on the bed snorted a couple of times, "I went to them before, but all they wanted to do was to operate on me."
Yu Yuan hummed in acknowledgment. She did not say anything else. 
Many diseases did not have perfect solutions. Doctors could only weigh the treatment methods by their pros and cons.
The courier listened to their conversation and took a couple of steps back. He wanted to gulp, but he could not. 
"Are you here to see a doctor, or…?" Yu Yuan took off her gloves and turned to the side to ask the courier. 
"I… I am here for delivery…"
"Bittern flapjack and fried liver?" Yu Yuan's eyes shone. 
"Yes…" the courier subconsciously looked at his delivery and said, "Doctor Ling Ran ordered them…"
"You can put them down, then. I will take them." Yu Yuan smiled broadly. 
She had just started working, but she had not eaten her breakfast yet. Her stomach was rumbling. 
The courier stared at Yu Yuan's smile. When he thought of bittern flapjack and fried livers' ingredients, he became nervous. 'There is a girl whose height doesn't even reach my chest at three o'clock in the morning, and she's in an emergency room of a big hospital. She just meddled with another person's intestines, and now, she's smiling at the intestines in my hands. What kind of place is this? This seems like a scene from a horror movie.'
"Don't… don't..." The courier stuttered but could not scream when he saw Yu Yuan walk closer. He could not help but take two steps back. 
"Pass me the rice." Yu Yuan stretched out her hand.
"Oh… oh." The courier quickly put down the food and ran out as he stumbled along the way. He thought to himself, 'I will never make deliveries in the morning again.'
Yu Yuan happily carried the lunchboxes into the waiting room inside the Emergency Department. She arranged the lunchboxes as she called out for the others to come. After a while, the doctors in Ling Ran's treatment group, as well as the doctors on duty, gathered together. 
"This is bittern flapjack and fried liver. This is gnocchi soup, roasted donkey, as well as mutton soup and noodles…" Yu Yuan pointed for those who just came in. She took a portion of bittern flapjack and held it in her hand. She picked a piece of the small intestines, took a closer look, and then put it into her mouth. She chewed on it as she said, "I have just encountered a patient whose intestines have fallen out of his an*s…"
"You stuffed it back?" Lu Wenbin held the mutton soup and started slurping. 
"I have to stuff it back. We don't have a Colorectal Department in our hospital. It doesn't seem to be caused by an ordinary hemorrhoid…"
The people who were present became interested in what she said. 
"If it were not caused by constipation and hemorrhoids, there's an eight or nine out of ten chances that it's caused by something that they did to themselves."
"The people nowadays really know how to have fun in bed."
"A male or a female?"
Yu Yuan said, "A male. From his appearance, he looked pretty young."
Several nurses looked at each other and smiled before they looked up again. They saw Ling Ran coming over, and their smiles faded. They pretended not to care about what was just said. 
"Oh, the take-away is here." Ling Ran patted his stomach. He was also hungry. 
"Doctor Ling, here's your bittern flapjack and fried liver." Su Mengxue stood up the fastest as she helped Ling Ran open his lunchbox. She then put a pair of beautiful wooden chopsticks and spoons next to it, and she whispered, "These are new chopsticks and a new spoon, they have never been used."
"Oh… Thank you. I'll wash them and pass them back to you after I'm done using them." Ling Ran was experienced in this, which was why he did not say that he brought his own chopsticks. 
Su Mengxue then happily sat back in her seat.
Lu Wenbin looked at Su Mengxue's broad smile, and he could only think that she looked like a blooming lily. She was very white and beautiful… 
"Young Su, I have a set of roasted donkey left. Do you want to have it?" Lu Wenbin deliberately stood next to Su Mengxue.
"No!" Su Mengxue rejected without hesitation and moved a few steps away to stand among the group of young nurses.
Lu Wenbin, who still came to work at three o'clock in the morning, was full of enthusiasm even though he was half-awake, and he was used to rejection. He sat down silently and took a bite of his roasted donkey.
The few tired doctors on duty stared at the doctors in Ling Ran's treatment group, and they felt relaxed
Zheng Pei intentionally sat next to Lu Wenbin and patted him on his shoulder. He smiled and said, "I didn't realize it before, but now I do. I feel that your group is like the reinforcements of the Emergency Department. Hey, if you guys were to come a few hours earlier, I wouldn't even have needed to be on shift. We can just send you the patients at night."
Lu Wenbin glanced at Zheng Pei and said, "Stop dreaming. If patients with general illnesses came, they will still be sent to you. We only listen to Doctor Ling's orders."
Zheng Pei moved his thick eyebrows and smiled. "Don't be that way. If you help out, you can take it as practice."
Lu Wenbin revealed a smile as if he had sold countless of pig trotters, "How about I help you out and you help me out?"
Zheng Pei thought for a moment and shook his head decisively. "Forget it. Working in your group will tire me to death."
"Hey, you bastard. Doctor Ling gave you food and drinks, but in the end, you don't want to help out? Who do you think you are, a giant panda?"
"Hey, hey, hey. Don't say it so loudly." Zheng Pei looked up awkwardly to see everyone staring at him.
"The king asked me to patrol the mountains…"
Just as this moment, Ling Ran's phone rang. 
"It may be an emergency." Zheng Pei quickly put his things down and ran out.
When he got outside, there was indeed an ambulance on the road.
He did not have to wait long before he saw another two ambulances charging forward. 
At this time, the doctors who were inside hurried up to finish up their food and ran out.
"Where is the rupture?"
"How much blood did they lose?"
"Is it bad?"
Zheng Pei sighed in resignation. "I haven't got to ask as well. The ambulances just arrived."
"I am going to open up the prize now!" Lu Wenbin took the lead and went forward.


Ling Ran, a med school senior, begins to see the world like a game UI. He uses it to pave his way towards graduation, a residency, becoming the greatest doctor in the world... And finally getting a Transformer from his newbie packs? Maybe. We don't know yet.

She returned the call after a moment of deliberation.
It took a while before the call connected.
Mu Yazhe's sullen voice came through from the other end. "Why weren't you answering the phone?"
"…My phone's battery got drained…"
"Do you know how worried I was when I couldn't reach you?!"
He nearly resorted to using the GPS tracker to locate her.
In the end, her phone had merely run out of battery.
It was just a false alarm!
It looked as if he had worried a lot for nothing!
He parked his car at the roadside, his heart finally settling as he gripped the phone tightly.
"I'm sorry for making you worry… I didn't know that it's drained!" weakly reasoned the woman. Her caution- and remorse-filled voice sounded just like that of an erring child.
He kept mum for a moment, unwilling to vent his anger on her and finally said, "It's alright! I was just worried that you got yourself into some trouble."
"Mm. In that case, I shall go to sleep now since I'm feeling tired!"
She was truly exhausted and, as such, was in a rush to head to bed.
Her words silenced him right away.
"Alright! Go rest, then."
With that, he hung up on her before she could reply.
After muttering 'good night' into her phone, she put down the phone and, with heavy footsteps, dragged herself to her bed where she collapsed on top of.
Right after pulling the blanket over herself and as soon as her head hit the pillow, she dozed off.
On another end, Mu Yazhe sat in his car sulking for a long while before he finally stepped on the accelerator and drove back to Xiangti Walk.
…
Yun Shishi was again overwhelmed by work over the next few days.
Although the life of a celeb was glamorous on the surface, it was all blood, sweat, and tears underneath!
She got the rare chance to sleep until noon the next day before she got up to prepare her makeup for the day.
She did not actually have the habit of doing so, but now that she was in the production team, with members of the media occasionally dropping by, her manager ordered her to put on makeup regularly before leaving her room, or else she was not to take a step out.
The moment she finished her lunch, she was dragged by Qin Zhou to have her measurements taken for the custom-made clothes.
As her costumes required more work, even when working at top speed, at least a fortnight was needed to complete them.
A dance lesson was scheduled after the taking of measurements.
There were a few dance scenes in the movie.
While she could dance quite well, her foundation still needed working on; therefore, the production team invited a dance expert to give her and Lin Zhi dance lessons.
She was too busy to even breath for the next few days.
Whenever she returned to the hotel, she would just take a shower fast and then dropped into bed to rest for the night.
The situation was so bad that she only remembered to reply to Youyou's message when she woke up the next morning.
That day, Mu Yazhe woke up to find the boy lying beside him in the bed, smiling brightly with fawning eyes.
"Daddy, you're awake!"
He eagerly blinked at him in greeting, those fluttering dark, lashes of his looking especially pretty.
The boy's unusual behavior surprised his father.
"…"
"Did you have a good sleep last night?" asked the lad in concern as he continued buttering him up.
The latter looked him in the eyes and lightly spoke in his clear and husky voice. "One who is unaccountably solicitous is—"
"What are you saying?! I'm neither a traitor nor a thief, but I do have something I want to talk with you about!"
As the man returned late from an international conference the night before, the boy did not have a chance to talk to him about this matter. Hence, he got up before dawn and ran to his father's bedroom to ambush him, lest he leave early for work.


She became a surrogate mother in exchange for over a million yuan.

As the esteemed CEO of the most powerful Empire in the capital, he holds absolute power, while she is just an adopted daughter to a family of lowly status. She agreed to bear him his offspring, simply because her adoptive father's business was failing.
 
On the day of her delivery, the elder brother was born healthy, but the younger one was stillborn. Having fulfilled the contract, she disappeared from his sight along with the astronomical sum of money. 


Six years later, he is still that arrogant and high-profile CEO. When she accidentally gets embroiled with him again – like a canary trapped in his cage, he closes in on her. “Woman, do you think you can escape from my clutches?!" 

However, he does not expect a little kid to interfere; the boy pompously points his little finger at him and warns, “Mu Yazhe, you’d better leave her alone! She's mine – this baby's woman!” 

The man is alarmed, simply because the little kid's facial features are identical to his...

While He Jichen was busy with work, he glanced over at Ji Yi every now and then. When he felt her gaze shift repeatedly over to himself and the bed, He Jichen's brows furrowed. He paused for a moment then he realized what was on her mind.
He Jichen glanced at his laptop to see that it was already ten. It was indeed time to get some rest. He grabbed his phone from the desk, typed a message, and sent it to Ji Yi.
Ji Yi noticed her phone vibrate, so she looked down at the screen to see the three words "Yuguang Ge." She instinctively looked over to the man in front of the computer before she read the message: "Manman, if you're sleepy, just go to sleep. Tonight I have a lot of work, so you don't have to worry about me."
So it turned out he saw through what was on her mind.
But does he really have work to do, or is it just an excuse he used to make me feel more at ease?
Ji Yi stared at the phone screen and after some thought, rather than speaking to "He Yuguang" directly, she replied with a short "Oh" in return.
After Ji Yi freshened up, she climbed into bed.
The main light switch was next to He Jichen. Seeing that she laid down, he casually pressed it, instantly engulfing the entire room in darkness aside from the light emitting from his laptop.
In that very moment, Ji Yi, who was so sleepy she was yawning earlier, shut her eyes but couldn't sleep at all.
After Ji Yi tossed and turned countless times in bed, she couldn't help but eventually reach for her phone by the pillow.
After opening her conversation with He Yuguang in WeChat, Ji Yi pursed the corners of her lips and eventually typed, "Yuguang Ge, I'll leave you half the bed. When you finish working, remember to get some rest."
Ji Yi stopped for a moment then added a few words: "Don't take this the wrong way... I mean, I just think it's not healthy to stay up late."
After Ji Yi finished writing the message, she shoved her thumb into her mouth and nibbled on her nail. As she bit down, she pressed the send button.
She knew "He Yuguang" would definitely see her message, so she put her phone face-down and shut her eyes.
After about twenty seconds, she vaguely heard the sound of him unlocking his phone, then shortly after, her own phone lit up. She knew that she received a message. She paused for a moment then quietly picked up her phone and glanced at the screen.
"He Yuguang"'s reply was simple; there was just one word: "Goodnight."
Ji Yi didn't reply to "He Yuguang" since she said everything she wanted to, and her heart felt more at peace. She put down the phone, shut her eyes, and not long after, she fell asleep.
The next morning, when Ji Yi woke up, the other half of the bed was empty.
The bed sheets were also neat like no one had slept in them.
Yuguang Ge couldn't have really been busy working all night long, right?
As that thought entered Ji Yi's mind, she bolted upright in bed and saw "He Yuguang" laying on the sofa. He had the same blanket from her afternoon nap the day before.
The sofa was a little small, and since he was tall, a big chunk of his legs was suspended in the air.
Just by looking at his posture made her feel like she was in pain. So he...
I purposely gave him permission to share the bed with me after he finished his work, yet he didn't.
Was it out of respect for me, or was he afraid to disturb me if we slept side by side?
Ji Yi's fingers suddenly tightened on the covers.


Time stopped at eighteen for Ji Yi, and now all she wants to do is pick up from where she left off. Her career depends on it, and on top of that, she has to survive a fake marriage turned real! Some missed opportunities are irreplaceable, and some misunderstandings between them have proven near-fatal, but for He Jichen, he isn’t just a pretty face—he’s an opportunist. They may have lost their prime years together, but He Jichen is more than willing to spend his remaining years with her.
