At seven-thirty in the morning, Shen Yi woke up.
He had fallen asleep early last night without realizing it, and now he felt refreshed after this sleep.
It was still early, so he could afford to laze in bed for a while. Shen Yi rolled over and grabbed his phone.
Opening the simulator, he saw that after a night of processing, the progress bar had completed, showing the update was finished.
Shen Yi tapped with his finger.
"Whoosh"
The simulator instantly transford into a stream of light and entered Shen Yi's mind.
Shen Yi's vision blurred montarily, and a light screen appeared before his eyes, showing his attribute panel.
"Wow..."
With a thought, the light screen disappeared, and another thought brought it back.
This mind-controlled feeling fascinated Shen Yi, and he played with it several tis. The system's integration into his consciousness eliminated one of his major concerns.
Having the simulator on his phone was neither convenient nor secure, and Shen Yi hadn't dared to test whether others could see it or not.
Now it was perfect - the concealnt was unmatched. Even if soone cracked open Shen Yi's skull, they wouldn't find it.
Looking back at his phone, he saw that the pink APP had completely vanished, eliminating the last potential risk.
Lying in bed, Shen Yi began to experience the upgraded simulator.
Na: Shen Yi Level: Lv.2
Strength: 7
Stamina: 7
Energy: 9
Charm: 70
Assets: 219533.5
Romance Points: 2
Attribute Points: 1
"Attribute Points? Is this the upgrade reward?"
The attribute panel now showed an additional point, and all three dinsional attributes had a plus sign after them.
It was clearly indicating that Shen Yi could now freely allocate points.
The free attribute points didn't seem to be linked to charm. With Jian Leyi's precedent in mind, Shen Yi figured that increasing charm would probably still require targeting romance options.
'Which one should I add to? Maybe I should save it for when it's really needed.'
Shen Yi, considering himself a veteran player, wasn't unfamiliar with the strategy of saving attribute points.
He wasn't leveling up or fighting monsters right now, and he felt no survival pressure, so keeping it wouldn't hurt.
It might co in handy in so crucial mont.
As for the last column.
Romance Points had increased by 1 from yesterday's simulation reward, plus 1 from natural daily recovery, making it 2 points.
Looking at the ti, it was only 8 o'clock, still early for work.
Since Shen Yi was feeling energetic, he decided to run an exciting simulation.
Yesterday's three simulation attempts were used up, but today's natural recovery had restored one attempt.
[Begin Simulation!]
[You can now enter scene reviews at any ti.]
This was great news, and the system's prompt made Shen Yi happy.
Text descriptions had made him miss many details, but now being able to project his consciousness in at any ti would be much more convenient.
[Although you're just a modest office worker, even ancient emperors couldn't compare to you, for you have lived your fourth life.]
[In this life, you remain steadfast in pursuing one goal.]
[Sufficient sleep has left you feeling energetic, so you decide to...]
A. I'm lazy, naturally I'll take a morning nap.
B. Stay healthy, go downstairs for a walk and exercise.
C. Head to the company, be a workaholic and outwork my colleagues.
D. Free action Among these options, Shen Yi chose C without much thought.
He treated his simulated self almost like a slave, mainly because neither sleeping nor exercising would benefit his real body.
Shen Yi had no interest in being a workaholic; he was just an emotionless romance pursuer.
[You efficiently got up and got ready, quickly grabbed a bite of breakfast, and rushed to the company, believing that leadership would surely notice your dedication.]
[You arrived at the company at eight-thirty, when the surroundings were still quiet.]
[After clocking in and opening the door, you were the first to arrive, even beating the early-bird champion Zhuo Huijun.]
[After sitting idly for a while, you got bored, as you weren't really there to be a workaholic.]
[With nothing to do, you decided to walk around.]
[Revealing your true intentions, you wandered to the Legal Departnt on the 11th floor.]
[When the elevator opened, you had expected the building to be quiet except for the cleaning lady and security guard, but surprisingly, there was commotion coming from the Legal Departnt.]
[Curious, you went to investigate.]
In his warm bed, Shen Yi stared at the text before him, and with a blur, his consciousness entered the scene.
The noise carried through the glass doors.
At a glance, Shen Yi saw several people in suits gathered together, so on phones, others speaking heatedly over docunts.
Walking in a few steps after opening the door, the sound waves grew considerably louder.
Shen Yi then saw a legal assistant surrounded by several people, though three years ago he was just an intern clerk by current standards.
This person was soone he'd t in the previous simulation, and now he was sweating and stamring explanations.
Upon listening closely, Shen Yi understood that an important contract needed drafting, but there was no standardized template available, and it was urgent.
It was too early, and most people hadn't arrived at work yet.
This clerk happened to co in early today and was caught to help.
But being an intern, his skill level was predictably low, and he was now sweating profusely under everyone's scrutiny.
The legal staff couldn't arrive quickly enough, so they could only give instructions bit by bit through video, which was highly inefficient.
Understanding the situation, Shen Yi slowly approached and softly said to the group:
"How about I give it a try?"
[Your quiet approach startled everyone, and they demanded to know where you ca from.]
[You smiled faintly without rushing to answer, instead looking at the leader in the middle.]
[Seeing your confident and assured deanor, he decided to let you take a look.]
[You casually took the docunts and quickly got into the groove, asking questions and making changes systematically, occasionally adding points others had overlooked.]
[The person giving instructions through the speakerphone gradually fell silent, trying to rember who you were.]
[Your skilled manner was that of a seasoned legal professional, yet no one could recognize you.]
[Before long, you beautifully completed the rescue mission.]
[The leader, a middle-aged man with graying temples, carried himself with an unmistakable air of authority, clearly soone who had held high positions for long.]
[The big shot asked which departnt you were from.]
[You answered truthfully.]
[Your response shocked him greatly, questioning how the group could have buried such talent, saying soone like you was wasted in the Advertising Departnt.]
[He asked if you'd be interested in transferring to a different departnt.]
[Faced with his inquiry, you choose to...]
A. Firmly refuse, declaring loyalty to the Advertising Departnt in life and death.
B. Tactfully agree, saying opportunities are for those who are prepared.
C. Declare you've been wandering half your life without finding a good master, and if he doesn't mind, you'd like to take him as your adopted father.
D. Free action Shen Yi's eyes lit up, surprised at this unexpected opportunity from coming in early.
In the previous simulation, he had to find excuses to get close, but now he could be directly transferred to the Legal Departnt, which would save considerable effort.
However, without the knowledge accumulated before, he wouldn't have been able to seize this opportunity.
'Wait, doesn't this an the company is currently short on legal staff...'
Shen Yi montarily felt the urge to get up and seize the opportunity, but quickly abandoned the thought.
Firstly, he might not make it in ti, and secondly, even with a departnt transfer, he'd have to start from scratch.
He wasn't his forr self anymore and had no obsession with climbing the corporate ladder; that montary impulse was just a reflexive response.
Besides, Shen Yi knew that even if he didn't go, soone else would eventually solve the problem.
It would just be more troubleso.
Shen Yi had already decided to quit after completing this romance pursuit, as work was too much of a hindrance to his progress.
