A Little Reunion: I Brought OKRs Back to High School

At three in the morning, a burned-out employee at a major corporation dies at his desk. When he opens his eyes, he sees Ji Yangyang's face in the mirror. In the next cubicle, Fang Yifan is hiding an exam paper. The words slip out: "The rat race starts in high school?" [Shock System: Activated] Other people's shock can be exchanged for skills, but his own genuine shock earns double, forcing him to stop acting cool and truly empathize.
