The Buggiest System

13 - School

While Zhou Lei was in his bed, sobbing about his sore butt, the three other family members were confused.

If his fever was not real, how did he make the temperature on those thermometers very high? It wasn't like he dipped it in scorching hot coffee, like in a cartoon.

They were all observing him through the process of taking his temperature, so he could not have done any trickery to change the temperature!

There was no explanation for this, other than Zhou Lei actually having a fever. It was just that the fever left as soon as it came.

Suddenly, a thought struck the three's minds.

'Work!'
'School!'

In the end, they did not leave home.

.....

Nighttime. Zhou Lei and his parents were gradually getting used to Zhou Zhenya's extraordinary beauty. Surely, not even those in the TV shows could rival her beauty now, much less when she grows up and develops.

After having dinner, Zhou Zhenya moved quickly. She carried the plates to the sink and got ready to wash the dishes as they had no dishwasher to do it for her.

With her newfound beauty, her parents now felt like it was a waste to make her do the chores. They decided to let her do modeling, or something like that, while the chores would be passed on to Zhou Lei.

The two siblings were oblivious to their parents' scheme and continued on with what they were doing.

The parents went to their bedroom, while Zhou Lei and his sister went to theirs respectively.

As Zhou Lei entered his bedroom, he immediately locked the door and grabbed a tissue. It was obvious that he was planning to do an onanism.

It was then that System gave him a quest.

Quest: Don't do it

Description: Don't do it

Reward: 100 upgrade points (don't do it)

"..." Zhou Lei was speechless.

.....

Ring, ring!

Zhou Lei immediately stopped the alarm. He opened his eyes.

"A refreshing feeling?"

He stood up and noticed that it was more comfortable to move around now. He was also a bit taller than before. His shirt and pants felt baggy, since his big stomach was all gone.

Excited, Zhou Lei rushed to the bathroom to look at the mirror. When he arrived, what greeted him was a handsome man that was out of this world.

"This... is me?" Zhou Lei caressed his own face as he confirmed that the person on the mirror was, indeed, him.

Thinking about future prospects, Zhou Lei's mouth widened to form a grin. However, this grin did not look creepy, but rather, it looked very charming, so much so that one look at it would be sure to make one fall in love.

"Haha... hahaha!"

Zhou Lei excitedly took a shower. He couldn't wait to go to his school now.

.....

"Where's plumpy? He's been absent for the last two days!"

"That b*tch, thinks he can run from us?"

"Yeah, and he had the courage to skip his 'contributions'..."

A group of nasty looking teen guys were all huddled up in the corner of a classroom. They were, of course, talking about Zhou Lei, aka Plumpy.

They were, obviously, the bullies. Everyday, they ask Zhou Lei for money, namely 60 dollars, otherwise they would beat him up and take the money by themselves.

Now, they were pissed off, thinking that Plumpy was absent because he didn't want to pay them. How dare he skip out on his payment?

"No matter how stubborn he is, he can't possibly skip class three days in a row now, can he?"

"Yeah, you're right. If he does, he'll get a failing grade."

"Pfft. More failing than now?"

After that, the three laughed at Zhou Lei, who was in the middle of wearing his baggy uniform. He sneezed, as if someone was talking about him.

"Aah..." The uniform was too loose for him to use now, so he had troubles. Eventually, he decided to wear the uniform he wore when he was younger and thinner, which he fit into nicely.

After wearing the uniform, he was essentially ready to go to school already. He put his backpack on his back and went outside his house, making sure to lock the door from the outside.

It was time to go to school after 2 days of absence.
