Chapter 19: Sleeping Like the Dead

How did this Rong Qingqing here become such a poor student? "Sigh." Rong Qingqing sighed with a face full of worry. It seems it's impossible to rely on Shen Qiao to urge Shen Jue to repay the debt. "I'm going back to my room!" Shen Qiao treated Rong Qingqing like a plague, afraid that she would really offer to tutor her, and quickly ran off. "Qingqing, you're tired today as well, go rest early." Mrs. Shen, though looking weary, still greeted Rong Qingqing before heading upstairs. Besides the servants, there was no one else in the living room. Rong Qingqing stood for a moment and then followed upstairs. Just as she lay on the bed, pondering whether there was a way to gracefully remind Shen Jue to repay Shen Qiao without angering him further, the System suddenly spoke up. "Task completed, life duration extended by 5 hours, remaining 11.5 hours." Rong Qingqing: "..." Looks like Shen Jue has repaid the debt. "It's eight o'clock now, ten hours until six in the morning tomorrow, which means I can basically sleep right through, huh?" Rong Qingqing sprang up from the bed in excitement, "Will there be more tasks?" Perhaps to prevent Rong Qingqing from giving up on saving herself, the System atypically responded with a yes. Now Rong Qingqing felt at ease. Having the rare chance to continue living, she didn't want to die. She still wanted to see her brother. Thinking of her brother, Rong Qingqing flopped back onto the bed, sighed deeply, then picked up her phone. The phone didn't have any screen lock password set. Rong Qingqing held the phone, opened a web search, thought for a moment, and typed a line. Jixing Network Technology Company. After typing, Rong Qingqing pondered for a few seconds and added some words. ——Director Rong Qingqing. Then pressed the search button. Unexpectedly, what came up were all related introductions and advertisements for Jixing company. But there was no information about Rong Qingqing's personal achievements. Rong Qingqing closed the webpage and sighed again. Actually, it's not entirely unexpected; she and her brother had always been very low-key. Though her brother pushed her into the director position, she was actually just a tech nerd, always managing the tech department. Most director duties were handed over to the deputy director by her. Thinking that something happened to her, this news was probably suppressed by her brother from going public, after all, she held core technology of the company and a few patents. Her incident would indeed have impacted the company significantly. Rong Qingqing looked at her reflection on the phone screen, staring at the vibrant beauty's face, her thoughts on her former self. Though bearing the same name, she was quite unlike this Rong Qingqing. The original her could only be described as a plain beauty, whose plus points were good makeup skills and good skin, a standard Southern girl. While this Rong Qingqing, though her personality was once obedient and quiet. In fact, her looks were strikingly beautiful, belonging to the flamboyant type. However, because of her plain dressing style and unobtrusive personality, this flamboyance and vividness of her appearance were concealed at least 80 to 90 percent. In summary, she and this Rong Qingqing both had deceptively layered faces, their appearances, contrastingly opposite their real personalities. It's just... Now that she's here, what about her self that suddenly passed away at the company? What's the situation over there? Could this Rong Qingqing have gone there, waking up in that place? Or perhaps, truly vanished just like that?
