Shi Yanqing was reborn after working himself to death in service of his country’s research efforts.
The System said that because he had made such a great contribution to humanity, he would be given a chance to be reborn in an alternative world.
But...
Who gets beaten while hanging upside down as their rebirth point?!
System: Sorry, we got it wrong. Let’s start over.
Rebooting.
He discovered that the person who had tortured him before was now his disciple.
System: This person is this world’s chosen one. If he dies, you’ll be caught up in it too.
Shi Yanqing: So my rebirth is tied to someone else’s life?
System: According to how things unfolded in your previous life, the original owner tortured the chosen one in all sorts of ways, so he’ll kill you.
“...”
His silence was deafening.
System: I recommend learning from the BL novels and going from enemies to lovers with your disciple. We’ve tested this solution, and it works every time, from master to wife.
Shi Yanqing thought that made sense.

After Yan Chu was reborn, he realized something.
His master was different this time.
“Good boy, are you hungry?”
“Did you get hurt during your outdoor training?”
“Do you have enough spirit stones?”
The master who had tortured him so cruelly in his previous life had inexplicably begun fussing over him this time. He even...
“Good disciple, how about we start dating?”
Yan Chu: “?!?”
