Chapter 20: Change the Task

She had an accident, isn't big brother the saddest one? Rong Qingqing was picked up by Rong Kuo and brought into the Rong Family as their daughter. Her adoptive parents treated her as if she were their own, and big brother doted on her immensely. In that household, Rong Qingqing never felt the slightest grievance of being an outsider. In fact, before her parents' accident, Rong Qingqing herself didn't even know that she wasn't their biological child. Unfortunately, when she was seven, her parents died in a car accident. No relatives in the Rong family were willing to raise her and Rong Kuo, so they grew up in an orphanage. It's no exaggeration to say they depended on each other for survival for over a decade. In the environment of the orphanage, Rong Qingqing was protected by her brother, never hungry, cold, or bullied. Jixing was founded by big brother in his second year after graduating from college and is now a fairly well-known company in the country, rising to fame through games. Eventually, it expanded into more fields, and its annual profits are shockingly high. It's the kind of numbers that Rong Qingqing couldn't even dream of when she was young. Rong Kuo is the CEO of Jixing, while Rong Qingqing, who just wanted to be a tech nerd, was pushed into being a figurehead director. Rong Qingqing holds 45% of Jixing's shares, even slightly more than Rong Kuo, the CEO. But the reasons for these, well, that's a long story. Now what Rong Qingqing is most concerned about is that with her accident, big brother might cry himself to death holding her photo. Don't be fooled by Rong Kuo being a man; he's even more sentimental than this girl here. Her big brother can't live without her. If he doesn't mention her for a day, Rong Kuo will be lonely to death. With these chaotic thoughts, Rong Qingqing unknowingly fell asleep, still in her clothes, spread out and sleeping soundly. She had no worries about sleeping in a different bed. When she opened her eyes again, focusing her gaze, it was already half past one in the morning. Rong Qingqing rubbed her arm, gritting her teeth in anger, "Damn system, did you just electrocute me?" The shock left her arm still feeling numb to this moment. "If I didn't zap you awake, you might have actually slept yourself to death." The system taunted mercilessly, "I've seen people who sleep a lot, but never someone who can sleep as much as you. I've been calling you since ten o'clock, and you just wouldn't wake up." "Didn't think you had this feature." Rong Qingqing rolled her eyes in annoyance, "Is there a new task?" "New task triggered: Say goodnight to Shen Jue within half an hour and get a response from him. Task successful, life extended by 10 hours." Rong Qingqing was dumbfounded. What the hell!!!!! "It's half past one in the morning, and you want me to say goodnight to Shen Jue and get his response?" Rong Qingqing was furious. "Shen Jue's response might just be to punch me right out of Shen Manor!" "Damn system!!!" Rong Qingqing resolutely demanded, "Give me a different task!" "Sorry, can't change that!" The system snorted arrogantly. "This task started triggering at ten, but who told you to sleep like a log! If I hadn't adjusted it, missing the task, you might as well have just slept yourself to death." "Then change it again!" "Sorry, no permission, if the host refuses to complete the task, then just wait to sleep yourself to death." After speaking, the system directly went silent, no matter how much Rong Qingqing called it, it wouldn't make a sound. Rong Qingqing secretly gritted her teeth, thinking she might live to die young once again. Rong Qingqing frantically scratched her head. Either die or live! At worst, if Shen Jue gets mad, he'll just kick her out of Shen Manor. He wouldn't possibly kill her, so damn it! If she's kicked out of Shen Manor in the middle of the night, at worst, she'll come back tomorrow when it's daylight!
