Jun Ye lay on the bed, face up, with Xiu Si lying beside him, tossing and turning all night without waking up.
Jun Ye fiddled with the hair of the person beside him. The pale, slender fingers contrasted sharply with the healthy wheat skin of the sentinel.
His body seemed to be cursed, as no matter how much he exercised, adhered to custom diets, or used other biotechnological methods, he couldnât regulate his condition to the level of a normal person.

Sometimes Jun Ye would wonder if there was some consciousness higher than this world that dictated that his physique could only be so bad.
Or perhaps it was because his basic attributes had been deducted by the system several times due to low mission scores?
Thinking of that useless system, Jun Ye raised his hand and flicked it in the air, causing a system panel that only he could see to appear.
The entire panel remained unchanged, just like before he came to this world, with even the newly added [Store] icon still empty.

He really didnât know what use this system was.
Jun Ye waved his hand, and the floating panel shattered and disappeared.
At this moment, the terminal on Xiu Siâs wrist lit up, and Jun Ye reached out to press it, once again turning off the alarm before it made a sound.
Jun Ye recalled the numbers that had appeared on the terminal just now, feeling a bit dazed.
It was exactly eight oâclock, and he hadnât coughed for four hours now, nor did he have any urge to cough.

His condition had suddenly worsened these past few days. The little recluse had been staying up all night to take care of him, often waking up at the sound of his coughâŠ
It had been a full four hours now, and this situation was very abnormal.
Jun Ye had a vague feeling that he was about to leave this world.
ButâŠ
Looking at the sentinel sleeping beside him, Jun Ye suddenly felt very reluctant.

In his previous worlds, he and his partners had both aged with white hair and left one after the other, but this timeâŠ
Jun Ye lightly poked the sturdy chest muscles of Xiu Si, which were even fuller and stronger than when they first met. He felt that Xiu Si could bounce around for decades without any problem.
Reluctant yet worriedâŠ
Jun Ye buried his head in the familiar chest, listening to the strong heartbeat, which used to soothe him a lot but now made him even more restless.
His hands rubbed anxiously on the sentinelâs body, wanting to get closer, yet wanting to leave something behind.

As sleepiness unexpectedly descended, Jun Yeâs hand paused, and he lost consciousness completely.
The entire space seemed to pause for a moment, and then, the sentinel on the bed opened his eyes.
His slightly confused gaze paused for a moment on the guide badge on his chest, and then, as if sensing something, the sentinel followed the guideâs hand down and felt his own tailbone.
A series of related memories flooded in, and the usually expressionless sentinelâs face suddenly became colorful.
.
Consciousness space.
Jun Ye used his non-existent âhandâ to poke at the system panel that had shown no response until now.
No scores, no next world mission, it was exactly the same as when he first saw it in the hospital room.
This garbage system⊠could it have completely crashed?
Just as he thought that, the system panel suddenly changed, and a series of values refreshed.
LA3 World [Mission Rating D-]
Jun Ye was already accustomed to it.
He even thought: just like the top student always scores 100 points because thatâs the maximum, maybe I always get a D- rating because the lowest score they can give is D-.
As he self-deprecated, Jun Ye noticed two lines of blood-red text appearing in the middle of the system panel.
ăWarning: Due to the hostâs multiple missions receiving extremely low ratings, they will be forcibly placed in the [Newbie Training Camp]. You now have five minutes to read the training camp tutorial.ă
Jun Ye: ââŠâ
Lowering his gaze, Jun Ye saw something resembling a document attachment and silently opened it.
â [You] are a lonely old Omega widower.
Just the first sentence made Jun Ye freeze.
This scriptâŠ
âOmegaâ was self-explanatory, it was definitely the same type of thing as âfemale Zergâ, âmermaidâ, and âguideâ, but these adjectivesâŠ
âLonelyâ, âsolitaryâ, and âold widowerââŠ
The systemâs sense of humor was getting more⊠well.
â [You] have been married three times in your life.
The first time, when you were 20 years old, the Star Network matched you with the head of the first major family on the main star. On the night of the wedding, the head of the family was assassinated, and as his widow, you inherited all his assets.
The second time, when you were 25 years old, you fell in love with your gardener. He was a humorous and witty young Alpha, while you were a sweet-scented, unmarked Omega. You quickly fell in love. He confessed to you that he was the leader of the Allianceâs first pirate gang, and although you were surprised, you didnât care about his identity and were willing to follow him wherever he went. You eloped with him, and you held a grand wedding on the main ship of the pirate gang. On the night of the wedding, the leader of the pirate gang was assassinated, and as his widow, you inherited his fleet.
The third time, when you were 30 years old, you fell in love with the butler who had been silently serving you by your side. You secretly held a wedding, and on the night of the wedding, the butler was assassinated, and as his widow, you inherited his assassin force.
ââŠâ
After reading the first page, Jun Ye fell into a strange silence.
â There are so many words in the world, yet I canât find one to describe my current mood.
Quietly clicking on the next page, which happened to be the last one.
â [You] are already 35 years old.
Jun Ye shivered.
Another five-year plan, and this time, whoâs going to die?
â [You] injected tube after tube of suppressants, but your physiological heat became fiercer year by year. You longed for an Alpha to thoroughly mark and possess you.
Finally, you met another Alpha who made your heart race. He was a student at a mech academy under your name, handsome, slim in clothes, muscular when undressed, agile, and his strong Alpha pheromones made your legs weak.
The best part was⊠he was so poor that he couldnât afford his tuition anymore, and you planned⊠to help him.
[The following will be used as the final assessment content of the training camp. Please feel free to improvise.]
Jun Ye: ââŠâ
Just as he was thinking whether the system wanted him to follow the usual storyline of supporting a sugar baby or sticking to the previous pattern of marrying first and then causing a death, Jun Ye suddenly felt dizzy and lost consciousness.
Dripâdripâdripâ
The mechanical sound of an electronic deviceâs notification kept ringing in his ears. Jun Ye reluctantly opened his eyes and found himself trapped in a pale pink world.
Pale pink lights, pale pink latticed bed curtains, and even pale pink pillows and blankets.
This must be a room that only appears in fairy tales.
Jun Ye sat up from the incredibly soft bed and found the familiar system screen appearing in front of him. The task release box in the middle was currently writing: [Please check your personal terminal, host.]
Could you say it was indeed a newbie tutorial? It was so detailed.
While he was internally complaining, he quickly opened the terminal on his wrist. The reason it kept beeping was because there was a red-topped email that seemed very important.
Jun Ye also casually tapped it with his finger and opened the email.
[Dear Mr. Jun Ye, as of todayâs breakfast, you have reached the legal marriage age for the Alliance Omega. For the continuation of humanity, please choose a spouse from the following 2333 Alphas and make your selection.
Fei Lian (matching rate 92.3%), [image], 24 years old, head of the Fei family on the main starâŠ
*#@ (#ïż„@%)âŠ
&*ïż„âŠ
#!âŠ
âŠ]
Jun Ye: ââŠâ
What do you mean by 2333 Alphas, and you turned all gibberish from the second one onwards! Itâs blatantly forcing consumptionâŠ
Truly a product of a garbage system, zero stars.
His gaze returned to the first name on the blind date list, and the familiar way of naming made Jun Ye somewhat intrigued. Looking at the photo again, uh⊠the features were relatively decent, within an acceptable range.
Then⊠letâs go on a blind date.
Send invitation letter with one click.
Before the other side could reply, the floating system panel in the air first made a âdingââ sound, and two new lines of text appeared.
[Sent a blind date invitation to [Fei Lian], task completion +1 point (1%)]
[Triggered task: Please select clothes from the wardrobe to attend the blind date banquet, theme [Sweet Omega]]
Jun Ye: â⊠Arenât you a bit too hasty? The other party hasnât even agreed yetâŠâ
Before he could finish his sentence, there was another âdripâ sound, and the invitation page that hadnât been exited yet began to float with red rose petals.
Without a doubt, the other party agreed.
ăFei Lian: Tonight at nine, are you available?ă
Jun Ye: ââŠâ
Sending a message already? Is he in such a rush to get off the market?
For some reason, Jun Yeâs mood felt a bit peculiar, and before he knew it, he replied with a âyes.â
Who knows if the original owner had any other plans for the day.
ăFei Lian: Tonight at nine, Sagittarius Restaurant. [Address]ă
ăFei Lian: Do you need me to pick you up?ă
Jun Ye clicked on the address link and found that it was only over two kilometers away from his current location.
With such a short distance, he wasnât some delicate little girl. Jun Ye replied with a âno need.â
Dingâ
ăRejected [Fei Lian], task completion -1 point (0%)ă
Jun Ye: ââŠâ
Whatâs this? Hidden deduction? Canât refuse task targets? Then whatâŠ
When the young master got restless, a swipe of a paw pushed him back, when Colonel Gu got restless, a wag of a tail passed by, when Xiu Si refused to be restless, he pounced on himâŠ
Could it be that his score was being deducted like this?
Jun Ye pondered if he should now accept the request to see if the completion rate would be reinstated.
Before Jun Ye could put it into practice, Fei Lianâs avatar on the terminal screen had already dimmed.
Well, thereâs no such thing as regret medicine.
.
Night.
Eight forty-five.
Jun Ye descended from the aircraft in a delicate pink and white dress.
He didnât need to deliberately coordinate his clothes; every piece in the wardrobe was so⊠princess-like.
Although the script didnât mention it, the family conditions of this body were top-notch, if not top-tier, so the bedroom could be made into a fairy tale princess room, not to mention the personal driver.
After exchanging greetings with the driver, Jun Ye, who was not used to it, walked towards the restaurant carrying a small bag. On the other side, a young, handsome man in black also descended from the just parked aircraft.
Just a back view, but it made Jun Yeâs heart skip a beat. He instinctively looked at the little map he had been neglecting for a long time, and the position of the person was represented by a pink dot, indicating the mission target.
He must be [Fei Lian]âŠ
Truly, with the same pink dot and the same name pattern, itâs really easy to think more.
Jun Ye smiled wryly and then saw a man in a white dress come down from the aircraft. The two men, who looked like they were wearing couple outfits, walked into the restaurant laughing and chatting.
Jun Ye: ââŠâ
Truly unfair.
Suddenly, he didnât want every task target he encountered in each world to be the same person or have some kind of connection.
He traveled with memories and emotions from each world, and when he met that person, he had to be careful not to pour out his emotions too much, while that person enjoyed it selfishly. Itâs really unfairâŠ
The system panel suddenly appeared again, and Jun Ye thought he had done something related to game progress, but instead, there was a character introduction.
ă[Fei Xiu] (Fei Lianâs cousin), Alpha, 23 years old, married.ă
Jun Ye was stunned and asked in his heart, âCan you read my mind?â
The system didnât respond, and the floating panel gradually disappeared, revealing the two Alpha figures in front of him getting farther away.
Jun Ye temporarily suppressed his doubts and hastened his steps to catch up.
It has to be said that the setting provided by the system did make him feel somewhat relieved.
Jun Ye walked about five meters behind Fei Lian and his cousin, unintentionally overhearing their conversation.
Fei Xiu: âBro, whoâs the Omega from the Jun family youâre going on a blind date with? Is she pretty?â
Fei Lian: âThe only son of the Jun family, havenât seen him in many years, but in my memory, heâs just a pink and tender little Omega. You know, I donât like those delicate Omegas, Iâd rather marry a Beta, less trouble.â
Jun Ye looked at the clothes he was wearing and fell silent.
Why should he endure this?
Whatâs with the theme of â[Sweet Omega]?â
Whatâs the use of a system that pits teammates?!
But Jun Ye still doubted Fei Lianâs words.
He didnât like delicate? In the last world, his body was the epitome of fragility, yet his mission target still showered him with care and affection.
You, a little newbie task target, are quite mouthy.
Fei Xiu suddenly felt a chill down his spine and quickened his pace, reminding his cousin, âAlthough youâre good at âhandlingâ blind dates, you still need to be careful. This blind date is just a formality, yes, but the Fei family and the Jun family still have cooperation, and we canât sour the relationship.â
Fei Lian smiled proudly, âRest assured, for the sake of my future wife, Iâve used every trick in the book to get rid of blind dates without anyone noticing. Iâm a professional.â
Jun Ye: ââŠâ
Heh, heh.
I was completely depressed at first when he left Xiu Siâs world (and I wonder if he got their past memories together during that last moment??????) but then⊠that script⊠Iâm sorry but I laughed too much at it⊠especially the poor butler, rip lol
