Chapter 2: A Genius Student's Lifestyle Does Not Need An Explanation

"Lu Zhou, wake up!"

With his shoulders violently being shaken again, Lu Zhou slowly opened his eyes and saw Wu Dahai's fat face.

"F*ck! You're finally awake," said Wu Dahai before letting out a long sigh as he let go of Lu Zhou's shoulders. He laughed apologetically, "Hope you don't mind. I didn't mean to disturb your rest. I saw that you were snoring and guessed that you were okay."

Lu Zhou looked at the surrounding white walls and the bedsheet covering the hospital bed before asking, "Where am I?"

"Don't you remember? You had a heat stroke at the Telecom Business Hall!" said Wu Dahai as he sat back down onto the chair. He sighed and patted his stout thighs before saying, "Ah, I told you not to be stubborn and you didn't listen. We're only doing this part-time. We're not professionals. What's the point of working so hard? Look at you now. You've sacrificed your health. Is it worth it?"

Reluctantly, Lu Zhou smiled as he asked, "What did the doctor say about my health?"

"Not much, just a bit of dehydration," said Wu Dahai. He pointed at the nightstand with his chin as he added, "I put a cup of water there. Don't forget to drink it."

Lu Zhou cleared his throat and sincerely said "Thanks."

"Don't thank me. You're considered a junior student. As a senior student, it's my duty to take care of you," said Wu Dahai. As he waved his hand, he added, "You should rest well and go back to school when you're fine. I've already paid your wages so check if you've received it. Also, don't worry about the hospital bill. It wasn't a lot and I've already paid for it."

"How can I accept this…"

"It's fine. Don't be sentimental. I arranged this job for you. It's my responsibility when something happens to you," said Wu Dahai. He stood up from the chair and said, "We'll leave this situation at that. You should go and rest for a couple of days. Don't go start working again."

Lu Zhou wanted to say something but he was unable to find the words. Instead, he nodded his head and said thank you.

Wu Dahai waved his hand as a sign of "no thanks needed" and left.

Lu Zhou laid on the hospital bed and sighed towards the ceiling.

"Looks like I have to find a new part-time job…"

After all the trouble, Wu Dahai probably would not want him back. Not to mention, Lu Zhou was disappointed in himself. He had caused so much trouble for them. He could not ask for any more help.

He rolled over and thought about that motley dream. He closed his eyes and quietly whispered, "System."

No response.

"High tech system."

No response as well.

Lu Zhou's cheeks were slightly reddened.

F*cks sake!

Guess it was a dream after all…

However, when he opened his eyes, he was shocked by what he saw.

His entire surroundings were covered in pure white. There was the semi-transparent holographic display with the characteristic panel that was full of zeros. Everything felt like it was a reality.

Lu Zhou was surprised for a short moment before squeezing his fists in immense happiness.

Haha!

This is real! This isn't a dream!
