What do you get for helping a lost old woman?
Clutching the tabby cat in my arms, I had no idea what to do.
Just as I was questioning my life, my cat spoke inside my head.
“Jiang Shengsheng, you’ve been chosen by the System.”
“Beginner mission issued: Save Duan Qi, a down-and-out genius who scored zero on his math exam.”
I stared at the aloof, solitary boy, shrouded in mystery, with no idea where to begin. Then the System’s alarm sounded: “Target’s fortune value is about to hit zero. Beginning disappearance countdown.”
With no choice, I steeled myself and went up to him.
“Hey, my cat says... it wants to adopt you.”
Duan Qi looked at me like I was crazy.
Later, he cornered me against a wall, eyes red. “Jiang Shengsheng, who are you, really?”
I hugged my cat tight, close to tears.
I really was just an “unlucky chosen one” forced to help a cat raise a man.
