Before she turned thirty-five, the two words Lin Jianyue said most often were “Forget it.”
Shoes for 1,299 yuan? Forget it. A trip she'd wanted to take for ages? Forget it. Work her boss suddenly sent after ten at night? She didn't want to do it, but in the end she still replied, “Sure.”
Then, the year she turned thirty-five, she suddenly got bound to a strange System.
[Detected: Host voluntarily gave up personal needs 327 times in the past 365 days.]
[Beginner quest: Refuse to do something you don't want to do right now.]
Lin Jianyue stared at her boss's message about working overtime and, for the first time, unsent her “Sure.”
“I have plans tonight. I'll make the changes at work tomorrow.”
[Quest complete.]
[Reward: 2.88 million yuan.]
Lin Jianyue: ???
Later, she discovered that this System was downright outrageous.
Refuse to do something she doesn't want to do, and she gets a reward.
Buy something she truly likes, and she gets a reward.
Go somewhere she's always wanted to visit, and she gets a reward too.
Money, houses, shares, health, abilities… Everything that once seemed out of reach started pouring into her life.
Someone asked her, “What is it you really want?”
Lin Jianyue thought for a moment.
“Quite a lot.”
Before she turned thirty-five, she was always thinking about what she ought to give up.
After thirty-five, she only thought about one thing:
How can I make today a little happier for myself?
Theme: Life shouldn't be all endurance and compromise. May everyone who once got used to saying “Forget it” learn to respect their own feelings and bravely choose the life they truly want, living freely, abundantly, and to the fullest as they love and fulfill themselves.
