At thirty-seven, Lin Feng is reborn in 2005 during a laboratory explosion, becoming the third-worst student in Class 8 of Year Nine. When an electronic voice rings out in his mind, [Life Optimization System Activated], he stares at the vivid red mark on the calendar reading “200 days until the high school entrance exam” and clenches his fists. This time, he will not only defy fate and rewrite his life, but also save the girl who disappeared forever on this very night in his previous life.
Yan Muxi is known throughout the school as the “ugly girl,” but no one knows that a stunning beauty lies beneath her oversized uniform. When Lin Feng comes across her cornered by thugs in a dim alley, memories of his previous life surge back. It’s tonight! He grabs a brick and charges into the fray, trading a bloodied face for her safety. As he walks her home, the System suddenly displays a special mission: [Protect Yan Muxi for 200 days. Reward: “Graphene Production Technology.”]
From then on, the boy who used to sleep in the back row starts cramming like crazy, and his exam scores skyrocket. With his encouragement, the girl who always kept her head down and shoulders hunched gradually drops her disguise. When their names appear side by side at the top of the citywide mock-exam rankings, the wheels of fate begin to turn...
From conquering the high school entrance exam to winning a Nobel Prize, from a tender school romance to building a technological empire together. In this life, Lin Feng holds the System’s cutting-edge technology in one hand and the love of his life in the other. On the title page of his notebook, he writes his vow: “The perfect exam papers I missed back then, I’ll earn them all in this life; the person I failed to protect in my last life, I’ll give her the whole world this time.”
