Chapter 146: System, You've Really Gone Too Far This Time!

There is someone outside the door! Hearing the sound of someone waking from the dead coming from outside, Chen Yun shouted with frustration, "I am not a corpse waking up, let me out quickly! I am Chen... Huang Ye, alive!"

Hearing the name called out from inside, Wang Zheng froze for a moment. Huang Ye? Isn't that the name of that young boy? Wasn't he dead?

"You are Huang Ye? The Huang Ye who died from alcohol poisoning? You're not dead?" Wang Zheng carefully confirmed.

"Yes, yes, I am Huang Ye. Of course I'm not dead, let me out quickly!" Hearing the other person's question, Chen Yun hurriedly replied.

Wang Zheng opened the door of the morgue, and Chen Yun ran out as if seeing the light of day. Looking at the hallway outside and the pure white lights, tears streamed down his face!

Damn it, I, Chen Yun, am alive again!

Soon, the news that Huang Ye (Chen Yun) was alive again spread throughout the entire hospital, and everyone clicked their tongues in amazement. This young man had tried to commit suicide by drinking five bottles of liquor because of a bad breakup. The hospital tried to save him for several hours but ultimately failed, so they could only place him in the morgue and prepare him for cremation tomorrow. Who would have expected this kid to come back to life!

Hearing the news, the parents of Huang Ye (Chen Yun) rushed over and, seeing that their son was alive, hugged him and wailed loudly. Meanwhile, Huang Ye (Chen Yun) looked at the two people before him in utter disbelief; they actually looked identical to his parents when they were young before his transmigration!

Oh my god, System, I want to sue you for violating the portrait rights of my mom and dad!

"Son, how could you be so cruel to abandon your Mom and not care? It was just a broken heart, was it worth seeking your own death?!" The middle-aged woman in front of him hugged Huang Ye (Chen Yun) and said while crying, "There are plenty of women in the world, could you really bear to leave your mom and dad behind?!"

"As long as you're not dead, stop crying here. Let's go home," the middle-aged man wiped away his tears and said.

In the urban area of Lanyun City, Furong Residential Area. Huang Ye's home, which was also Chen Yun's home, was right here.

This place belonged to the area outside the fourth ring road of the city. Housing prices were cheap, suitable for middle and low-income earners to live in. As for inside the fourth ring road, they didn't dare to harbor any extravagant hopes; they simply couldn't afford the starting price of one gold coin per square meter.

Ever since he arrived in this neighborhood, Chen Yun had been in a state of daze. The streets and buildings here were exactly the same as the ones he knew on Earth before his transmigration!

Arriving at Furong Residential Area, he breathed heavily as he looked at the road layout, the neighborhood structure, and the surrounding neighbors who came over to offer warm regards, his brain completely crashing for a moment!

These people, this scenery, this orientation, everything—literally everything—was completely identical to his home on Earth!

***

The residential area was Furong Residential Area.

The father, Chen Qiu on Earth, was Huang Qiu here.

The mother, Su Yun on Earth, was Xiao Yun here.

The neighbors: Aunt Wang, Aunt Li, Aunt Liu, Uncle Li. Their names were the same, their appearances were the same, and even their voices and tones of speech were identical!

The location of the home, the decorations inside the house, and the setup of his own bedroom were completely identical to when he was sixteen years old on Earth!

Good heavens, am I in Rugby, or am I on Earth? Did I transmigrate again, or was I reborn again?

System, you've gone way too far this time!

"Mom and Dad, I'm going to rest. We'll talk about everything else tomorrow." Entering the bedroom, Chen Yun said this to his parents, closed the door, and lay down on the bed. He needed to carefully digest the memories of this person named Huang Ye, as he had a premonition—an unbelievable premonition.

Two hours later.

"Memory integration complete. Please allow the player to recall at their own discretion."

Huang Ye's massive memories completely merged with Chen Yun's, leaving Chen Yun without the slightest feeling of discomfort. At this moment, he buried his head in his hands and wept bitterly, feeling both love and hatred for the System's grand gesture.

The System had completely transferred everyone, everything, and every event connected to his memories of being sixteen years old on Earth into this world: his family, relatives, friends, school, classmates, and so on. Except for a fictional Liu Yan, everything else was entirely the same!

"Is this... supposed to be a chance for me to make up for my regrets?" Chen Yun raised his head and muttered to himself.

Chen Yun was born in D Province, S City. Because his father had enlisted in the army when he was young, he left his hometown—namely L City, S Province—and met his mother in S City. D Province was cold year-round, so to prevent their son from freezing, Chen Yun's parents sent him back to L City when he was one year old, temporarily staying at his father's elder sister's home, and this stay lasted for five years. Therefore, Chen Yun's infancy and enlightenment years were entirely looked after by his eldest aunt's family. The affection from this period truly could not be expressed simply in words.

During Chen Yun's kindergarten life, there was no such word as kindergarten in the village back then; they were all called preschool classes or nurseries. The village nursery was completely unconventional; as long as you didn't get hurt or start fights, basically no one cared about you. Thus, from the time he could learn to speak until he was picked back up to the city by his parents to start primary school, he was the king of the children. He basically did everything short of evil—oh wait, no... he climbed walls, scaled roofs, went down rivers to catch fish, and excelled at everything without exception. As a result, when his parents were discharged from the military and came back to pick him up and take him to the county town, he grabbed tightly onto his eldest aunt's leg and refused to let go, crying a tragedy of epic proportions. In the end, he couldn't win against his parents and was dragged away kicking and screaming by them. The grace of being raised and the grace of enlightenment made Chen Yun hold his eldest aunt's family on par with, or even slightly higher than, his own parents in his heart.

"Uncle-in-law... In my previous life, you passed away early, leaving behind my eldest aunt due to lung cancer caused by long-term smoking. In this lifetime, I will certainly not let that happen to you again." Chen Yun's eyes moistened. He recalled the excruciating agony of his eldest aunt at his uncle-in-law's funeral in his past life, the bitter crying of his older brother and sister, and his own heart-wrenching feeling. His gaze turned resolute: "Even if this is just a piece of history, and even if I will eventually return to Earth, I will make this piece of history flawless!"

"Player Chen Yun has activated the second main quest: complete NPC Ye Ming's wishes—1: Take revenge on his ex-girlfriend Liu Yan; 2: Enter the country's top university for studies; 3: Become the most dazzling star. Completing the first task rewards the activation of the Gun God profession, Chef profession, and Pharmacist profession. Completing the second task rewards a Level 4 growable mount: an aerospace combat vehicle. Completing the third task rewards a peerless-grade item: the World Timeline Synchronizer."

World Timeline Synchronizer: A peerless-grade item that can perfectly transfer the people, things, and events changed by player Chen Yun while in the identity of Huang Ye back to Earth, merging them with the identical people, things, and events on Earth at their most perfect values. This item will be used automatically after player Chen Yun returns to Earth.

Looking at the quest prompts and the attributes of the World Timeline Synchronizer, for a long time, the corners of Chen Yun's mouth curved upward as he softly said to the empty air, "System, you are still looking out for me. Thank you."

...

Closing his eyes, he still couldn't fall asleep for a long time. His mind was filled with the strong unwillingness and resentment of this body's original owner after experiencing a breakup.

Liu Yan was Huang Ye's girlfriend of three years in this world. They started dating in their first year of junior high, and the relationship lasted for three full years. After the high school entrance examinations, Liu Yan was admitted to a prestigious high school, while he only managed to get into an ordinary high school. From that moment on, Huang Ye could clearly sense that Liu Yan was slowly drifting away from him. However, he didn't think much of it at the time—until yesterday morning, half a year later...

"Liu Yan, why?" Huang Ye asked, looking in disbelief at the girl who stepped down from a BMW.

"Why? You ask me why? I am now a key high school student, guaranteed to be a prestigious university student in the future. And you? What are you? You couldn't even get into a prestigious high school, so how can you give me the life I want?" Liu Yan looked at Huang Ye with disdain and said, "I know you like me, but liking someone doesn't put food on the table. You couldn't even get into a prestigious university, so what can you do in the future? Work odd jobs? Can working odd jobs give me the life I want? I'm sorry, I cannot follow you to suffer and be poor for a lifetime. You and I are not people on the same path."

*****Divider Line***** (Must Read for Readers)

If the first volume was meant to grind skills and lay the foundation for the protagonist, then starting from now, the book enters a very important turning point—a dual-protagonist setting!

The second volume is titled The Road to Stardom. As the name implies, the protagonist Chen Yun will not undertake quests for leveling up and fighting monsters in this volume; instead, he will place all his focus on the task of gathering 100 billion fame points. However, everyone jangan (don't) be disappointed, as the second protagonist is about to make his debut. His task is simple: level up, fight monsters, get gear, and grow stronger, serving as pavement for Chen Yun's later dominance.

Starting from Chapter 148, this book splits into two sub-volumes: one sub-volume follows the comedic celebrity stream, while the other follows the system gaming level-up stream. The stories of these two branches are independent yet complementary, jointly preparing for the Earth trip in the fourth volume. Welcome everyone to read on.

Volume Two: The Road to Stardom.
Volume Three: Ruling the World.
