2: Mother's best friend

Before he could think carefully, a mechanical voice sounded in his mind.

“You are currently being evaluated for your Simp life.”

“At eighteen, you were admitted to Yangcheng University. And at a student union event, you met Liu Ruyan, who was one year older than you.”

“At nineteen, at the end of the first semester of your freshman year, which is now, you handed over 50,000 yuan that you had saved for many years to Liu Ruyan, hoping to marry her after graduation.

In the same year, your mother was diagnosed with leukemia and urgently needed money. You asked Liu Ruyan to return your hard-earned money, but she blocked you, broke up with you, and refused to return it.

At the same time, your mother, due to the high medical expenses, did not want to burden you, so she chose to jump from the top floor of the Hospital.

This year, you lost your only relative.”

“At twenty-three, you, who had just entered society, worked overtime until your hands cramped, and your body was severely depleted. 996 was a blessing, 007 was the norm, but your basic salary remained 3,500 yuan with no change, and you didn't even have social insurance and housing provident fund.”

“At thirty, after many years of struggle in society, you saved some money. Feeling lonely, you decided to get married.

So after dozens of blind dates, you chose someone you didn't love to marry. You gritted your teeth and sold your old house, took out a loan to buy a car and a house, spent 1.27 million yuan, gave 388,000 yuan in bride price, 80,000 yuan for the five golds, 10,000 yuan for the change of address fee, and 30,000 yuan for the getting-off-the-car gift.

But Zhang Jinyu, the bride who was burdened with online loans, temporarily raised the price, increasing the bride price to 588,000 yuan.

You were unwilling to compromise and wanted your money back, so Zhang Jinyu threatened you, saying that if you didn't give it, she would accuse you of rape.

You were still unwilling to compromise.”

“At thirty-three, you, after three years of 'further study' in prison, returned to society.

Everything had changed too quickly. You looked at the rapidly changing world and lamented that you were a bumpkin.

Subsequently, you retaliated and ruined Zhang Jinyu's reputation.”

“At thirty-five, relying on your own cleverness, you successfully started a business. The company was not big, but it earned several million a year.

So you let yourself go, completely blackened, and became a Cao thief, a scumbag, a playboy.”

“At thirty-eight, in just three years, your kill count reached a thousand.

Finally, after a tryst with a married woman, you were ended by a large vehicle on your way home, ending your tragic life.”

“Simp Counterattack System loaded. Host, do you have the courage to break free from your Simp identity and start a counterattack life at the age of nineteen?”

Isn't this my life experience?

Jiang Feng looked at the virtual selection panel that appeared before him and fell into deep thought.

Simp? Me?

Damn it, System, you're blind!

Do you know who I am?

I, Jiang Feng, have seen countless women, known as the Yangcheng Cannon King, Mr. Ye of 91, Married Woman Killer, Virgin Breaker. The system says I am a Simp?

“No, the system thinks I'm still that pure Simp, but little does it know, I've been reborn. Underneath this young skin is a thirty-eight-year-old uncle who has experienced the vicissitudes of life.”

Jiang Feng looked at the 'yes' and 'no' options on the virtual panel before him and chose 'yes' without hesitation.

“Ding! Simp Counterattack System has been bound.”

“Host: Jiang Feng”

“Age: 19”

“Height: 182CM”

“Weight: 78KG”

“Physique: 72, Intelligence: 80, Charm: 10” (Max value 100)

(Charm is composed of multiple dimensions such as appearance, assets, character, temperament, etc.)

“Daily Reward: 100RMB”

“Level: 1”

“Upgrade Reward: ‘Ice Snow Honey City’ Milk Tea Shop” (Next level reward: ‘Pang Dou Lai’ Shopping Mall)

“Evaluation: Warm Man”

“Charm is the core data that determines level and evaluation. Please host, work hard to improve your charm and strive to become a Sigma male as soon as possible!”

“No, is my charm value that low? And my evaluation is Warm Man, that doesn't count as a Simp, right?”

Jiang Feng couldn't help but complain.

“Hello, Host. Warm Man is the lowest evaluation. After upgrading, you can officially become a Simp, and the daily reward funds will also increase accordingly.”

“So Warm Man ranks after Simp, right? Very good, very rigorous.”

Jiang Feng was just thinking when his face suddenly changed. He realized something very important.

He flipped out of bed. Because he moved too fast, his toe accidentally hit the table leg, making him grimace in pain.

But Jiang Feng didn't stop. Instead, he limped to the living room and picked up the phone on the table.

Nokia 5200, this was the first phone he bought for 570 yuan.

Jiang Feng awkwardly searched for the power button and then pressed it.

The screen lit up, and the time displayed was March 1, 2010, 14:13 PM.

This year, the iPhone 4 craze had just begun to stir, and the most common phone on the streets was still the Nokia 5200.

This year, real estate advertisements covered bus stop signs, and the term “rigid demand” had just emerged from the mouths of salesladies. No one expected it to become the source of national anxiety five years later.

This year, going to an internet cafe still involved logging into QQ to level up.

This year, the “Thousand Group War” began, with over five thousand group-buying companies competing to give money to consumers, offering fried chicken for one cent and milk tea for one yuan.

And for Jiang Feng, March 1, 2010, was his eternal nightmare, because it was his mother's death anniversary.

“Damn it, less than an hour left!”

I must save Mom!

At this moment, the system's voice sounded in Jiang Feng's mind.

“Ding!”

“As a Simp at nineteen, you always fantasized that if a girl was full of you, you would even give her your life.

But twenty-one years ago, there was a girl who was full of you. Now, please look back. Your mother is almost burning out for you.”

“Mission Content: Save your mother who wants to commit suicide!”

“Mission Reward: 500RMB”

Jiang Feng had no time to pay attention to the system's voice. He anxiously grabbed his phone and ran.

After opening the door, he didn't even have time to close it, directly taking three or four steps at a time down the stairs.

Fortunately, he reached the first floor without mishap, otherwise, spraining his ankle would have been a big trouble.

Just as Jiang Feng rushed towards the unit door, he collided with a soft, warm, and delicate body.

“Xiaofeng, why are you in such a hurry? Is something wrong?”

A gentle and intellectual voice sounded.

Jiang Feng looked up.

A stunning aunt, a mother's best friend — Zheng Yiyun.

A beautiful young woman protected Jiang Feng. A pair of captivating phoenix eyes looked at him with concern, and her blue-white hair slowly fell.

The beautiful young woman was wearing a white sweater, and her enormous chest felt like it was about to burst the buttons.

Her lower body was a blue hip-hugging skirt, outlining perfect curves. Following this beautiful curve downwards were long legs encased in black stockings, stepping on ten-centimeter stilettos.

Every one of her movements seemed to be captivating souls, displaying the charm of a mature woman to the fullest, making one's blood boil.

This was... Mother's best friend.

Aunt Zheng Yiyun...

Her husband died young, leaving behind only a large house and two daughters.
