Chapter 3 - Chapter 2: Target—Ex-Girlfriend

[When the total amount of gifts and consumption from women for you reaches 50,000 yuan, the lucky wheel will be activated, and you will get a chance to draw a prize.]

[Tip: To ensure the host reaches the target as soon as possible, you will acquire three status effects: 'Glass Stomach', 'Tofu Teeth', and 'Elm Tongue'. Under these conditions, the host is deprived of the ability to eat and cannot feel full or enjoy the taste through regular food. You can only eat food purchased or gifted by women, or use money willingly given by women to buy food to restore your normal eating function.]

"Stupid system, if I could get girls to spend fifty thousand on me, I wouldn't need your reward, would I?"

Li Peifeng sighed helplessly. The four dishes and one soup in front of him were already half eaten, but he didn't feel full at all.

He couldn't help but activate his malnourished and slow brain, trying hard to think of how to get the system's certification and complete the novice task.

"I really can't take it anymore, if I keep starving, something's going to go wrong, better give it a try first."

More than two days after acquiring the system, this was the first time Li Peifeng truly thought about how to complete the system's task. Previously, he had been trying every conceivable means to find loopholes in the system.

The methods included: having his mom far away order him takeout, cooking for himself, borrowing money from girls to buy food, giving girls money to order takeout for him... all failed!

In short, it seemed as if the system could read Li Peifeng's mind; any sneaky tricks he thought of wouldn't work.

It had to be non-blood-related females willingly and freely gifting or non-blood-related females purchasing and sharing for it to work.

Otherwise, any food, fruit, or liquid other than water was tasteless, without sensation, and lacked nutrition once it was in Li Peifeng's mouth.

Even medication had no effect anymore.

Li Peifeng's personal life used to be quite lively; he often stayed up late writing code or thesis, and by the age of twenty-three, some of his organs were overworked, to the point even exercise couldn't save his perpetually working kidneys and liver.

Hence, he often drank water infused with goji berries and deer antler to maintain his health, but since acquiring the system, not to mention deer antler, even the goji berry water tasted flavorless.

You could say that this is some sort of superpower: as long as it's not food bought by a girl, no matter how much he eats, he won't feel full!

Sometimes, Li Peifeng thought he could switch careers to become a mukbang broadcaster. Combining this with his handsome looks, he might go viral and make more money than being an online writer.

But having this kind of "superpower" is truly a terrifying experience; Li Peifeng was already both mentally and physically exhausted, left with no choice but to accept it.

The whole trope of heaven-sent golden fingers, he's familiar with it. If it happened to him, he should be ecstatic and immediately embrace it, using the golden finger to reach the pinnacle of life.

However, Li Peifeng was quite resistant; after acquiring the system, he didn't follow its instructions to start mooching off others, even if it meant being starved for over two days. Even with the so-called reward for guiding a female to spend fifty thousand on him, Li Peifeng did not yield; instead, he exhausted every means to detach from the system or try to restore his normal eating function. Aside from not wanting to be a freeloader who makes women spend money on him, the more critical reason is this task...

A damn task that could kill someone!

[Novice task: Assessment.]

[Task description: Within sixty days, have two target women give you material gifts or spending, totaling no less than thirty thousand yuan.]

[Current task progress: 0/2. Remaining time: fifty-seven days and twelve hours.]

[Reward: Two lottery draw opportunities.]

[Tip: Host, please take the task seriously and be sure to complete it 100%. If the task fails or is not completed by the deadline, it implies the host lacks the ability to match with the system.]

In the past two days, Li Peifeng had gone through this information in his mind countless times, so much so that he almost memorized it. He read it once more now, yet still felt it was unreasonable and found the system-designated two task targets to be absurd.

"It's bad enough that I have to mooch off two women in two months, but now there are specific targets?! An ex-girlfriend, and... just talking about the ex-girlfriend, with the kind of relationship I have with her, she and her relationship, damn it! That woman, I don't even want to see her!"

The system seemed to sense Li Peifeng's resentment, and in front of him flashed the profile of the target woman.

[Impression of the host: Ruthless, selfish, arrogant and haughty, playing with women's emotions at will just because of his handsome face, worthless aside from his looks, you've made me utterly disappointed in men... Li Peifeng, when on earth are you going to die? When you do, I will cry at your funeral, then mentally cremate you to ashes!]

As everyone knows, there isn't another person named Li Peifeng at Beihua University.

This Li Peifeng is indeed the same Li Peifeng...

"Prejudice is a mountain, prejudice is a heavy burden, it confuses the past, threatens the future, and prevents us from seizing the present, embracing the future."

"I've already let it go, even wishing you to soon find true love, yet you're hoping to incinerate me to ashes?!"

Li Peifeng quietly opened the search engine on his computer and typed...

"Question: My ex-girlfriend wishes I'd die soon, how do I get her to treat me to a meal? Online, urgent!"
