The eldest young master of the Cen family was gifted and clever, but frail. When he turned eighteen, he finally succumbed. After being bedridden for more than ten days, his life force seemed to ebb away, and just as he was about to breathe his last, he gradually began to recover.
The physician sighed. "This is a rally before the end. The eldest young master doesn't have much time left. Make preparations for his funeral."
The entire household was plunged into grief once more.
Only Cen Fuxue himself knew this wasn't a rally before the end. His System, eighteen years late, had finally arrived.
"Mission One: Stop Cen Jiangmei from entering the palace. Mission reward: 10 health points."
Cen Fuxue cursed weakly. "Why not wait until I'm dead before showing up?"
Why couldn't you have waited until I was gone?
According to rumors, the Jinyun Cen clan wore fine clothes and adorned themselves with exquisite accessories, made drinks with sugar and wax, set up purple silk screens, and scattered strings of cash across the ground. They were the wealthiest aristocratic clan in the Great Yan Dynasty. Even more famous was the beauty and virtue of the Cen women. They were so sought-after that the entire family was inundated with marriage proposals. Their fame reached its peak after the Cen family turned down a marriage proposal from the imperial family.
When the young prince heard about it, he sneered. "What a bunch of scheming aristocrats, daring to look down on the imperial family. Just watch. I'll marry a Cen girl and make her suffer, so I can humiliate these arrogant clans!"
But after seeing the eldest young master, so beautiful he made one's heart itch, the young prince no longer wanted to marry a Cen woman. He wanted to marry the most noble person in the Cen family: the eldest young master!
After the System awakened, Cen Fuxue officially began living a blissful life full of peril and passion.
A maid accidentally smashed his beloved coral tree. He couldn't scold her, because doing so would make the being called the "System" deduct health points.
His half-brother stole his book and accidentally soaked it in water. He couldn't punish him, or he would lose health points.
Some troublesome commoners dared to steal grain from his estate. He couldn't even kill them!
After enduring all kinds of torment, Cen Fuxue thought there was nothing he couldn't put up with. Then the rude young prince made advances on him. Cen Fuxue instinctively slapped him, and his health points instantly hit zero. He coughed up blood, and the usually arrogant, frivolous young prince, who seemed not to care about anything, finally panicked.
The arrogant prince who becomes a doting regent x the noble young master who looks kind-hearted but is actually a true beauty
