"Brother Sheng?"
Qi Sheng felt his shoulder being shaken hard and dazedly opened his eyes.
Uh...
’Where the hell is this?’
He was in a standard hotel room, a little over thirty square meters.
A familiar, somewhat boyish figure came into view.
"Pengzai?"
Qi Sheng had a vague premonition that he had, in all likelihood, caught the trendy wave of rebirth.
’This scene... Am I here for my college roommate’s wedding?’
"You gave me a scare. I thought you weren’t feeling well. Hurry up and get ready, Brother Tong has been rushing us."
Wu Peng breathed a sigh of relief, turning to continue packing his things.
"Yeah, I need to use the bathroom first."
Still a bit out of it, Qi Sheng got up and walked to the bathroom.
SPLASH...
Qi Sheng cupped some water in his hands and splashed it on his face.
He looked at his plain, unremarkable self in the mirror—his face was even a bit chubby—and couldn’t help but smile bitterly.
’Sigh... so what if I’ve been reborn?’
’Looks like making a living with my face is going to be impossible in this lifetime.’
[Ding... Infinite Modification System successfully loaded!]
A voice suddenly rang in Qi Sheng’s ears.
Qi Sheng was dumbfounded.
’Have I turned into a web novel protagonist?’
The rebirth alone was a pleasant surprise.
And now he’d been given a system on top of it.
’It’s like they’re afraid I won’t be able to reach the pinnacle of life!’
Qi Sheng eagerly checked to see what his system could do.
[Host: Qi Sheng]
[Age: 22]
[Modification Authority: Beginner]
[Height: 178cm (Modifiable)]
[Weight: 90kg (Modifiable)]
[Ability: Amateur Writer (Modifiable)]
[Monthly Income: 6,000 Yuan (Modifiable)]
[Looks: 61 (Modifiable)]
[Physique: 55 (Modifiable)]
[Intelligence: 62 (Modifiable)]
[Special: 60 (Modifiable)]
(Note: The average for all attributes in a normal, healthy adult male is 60.)
He had to admit, the system panel was astonishingly accurate.
Not long after graduating, Qi Sheng had switched careers to become a full-time writer, living a miserable, hand-to-mouth existence.
He was constantly staying up late, had an irregular sleep schedule, and didn’t control his diet.
Coupled with his reliance on sweets to relieve stress, his weight had skyrocketed.
Even up until his rebirth, he’d never managed to shed much of his 90kg weight.
Losing weight tested not only one’s willpower, but also one’s wallet.
For an ordinary person, just getting by was already hard enough.
Compared to losing weight, making money was Qi Sheng’s main interest.
"Are you done yet?"
Just as Qi Sheng’s mind was wandering, Wu Peng came over and knocked on the bathroom door.
"Just a minute."
Qi Sheng collected his thoughts and began to ponder the modification authority on the system panel.
The moment the system bound to him, it had also transmitted some necessary information to Qi Sheng.
The Beginner Modification Authority could only raise his various abilities to the Professional Level.
It wasn’t hard to tell from the information on the system panel.
Aside from his amateur writer ability, his other skills were atrocious.
They weren’t even good enough to be listed on the stats panel.
But with the system, none of that was a problem.
’Karaoke with friends?’
’Professional Level singing skills, guaranteed to leave your friends stunned!’
’Playing pool with friends?’
’Professional Level pool skills—clearing the table in one break would no longer be a dream.’
He could worry about abilities later, though.
The Monthly Income column was what Qi Sheng was really focused on.
People always say that if you’re reborn, getting rich is a piece of cake.
But an ordinary person was still an ordinary person, especially since it was already 2018.
Even the damn World Cup was long over.
Flipping real estate was a dead end in the future, too.
