Chapter 1 -> The Prodigal system

“Hong Dali, male, 22 years old, orphan, unfortunately, died while courageously saving two children who were about to get hit by the car. Hence, it was decided by the relevant departments to confer a posthumous award to him as a hero, an excellent university student of the province.”

– People’s Daily.

……………..

“No, No, I won’t go, I won’t go, I definitely won’t go with you to Hong Family to get engaged!”

Tang Muxin buried her head in the pillow, desperately kicked her delicate white legs on the bed and said: “But Hong Dali is the most famous waste of our city. He has completely ruined his family’s reputation. Moreover, he has been sick for quite a long period of time, and his brain is also out of track. Not to speak of him being a standard black sheep of his family. I just don’t want this kind of person as my fiancé!”

Tang Muxin was the only lovable daughter of Tang Ruisi, the Chairman of Tang Pharmaceutical Co. Ltd. She was a multi-talented and erudite girl. When talking about her appearance, she was very beautiful, fair, graceful, wise, and a virtuous girl, as if the world spiritual influence resided in her whole body. In addition, she was also an outstanding cook, with good mastery over few dishes. Nobody knew how many boys from her school dreamed of having her as their sweetheart.

But now that she actually listened to her father saying that today he must take her to that famous Prodigal Hong Dali’s house, for marriage settlement, how could she possibly stand it: “His parents spoil him, otherwise, this kind of useless guy should be driven out of Hong Clan to fend for himself. Then will he get the chance to spend lavishly and be prodigal everywhere, all day long?”

Tang Ruisi was sitting on the bed and when he listened to her words, a forced smiled appeared on his face as he reluctantly said: “Xin Xin, I don’t have any other choice. Your grandfather had already decided yours and Hong Dali’s marriage in the past personally, although he is prodigal, but it’s not a big problem, right? And as far as I know, this child Hong Dali is tall, handsome and very good looking ………… ”

At this moment, Tang Ruisi was clad in a grey vest, a spotless white shirt underneath, a simple bow tie under the collar. He kept a light beard and was holding an old bronze tobacco pipe in his hand. His short black hair was combed backwards meticulously and looked quite shiny. His overall image was quite good but had piercing fiery eyes, however, right now they were full of helplessness and unwillingness.

If he were not in a tight spot currently, then how could he ever want to send his own daughter? After all, that guy Hong Dali could be rated as the biggest prodigal of the world, because the only thing he liked to do and did all the time, could be defined in just one word: Prodigal.

Hong Dali’s most famous saying was: “I must be prodigal otherwise won’t it be a total waste of my mom and dad’s unbeatable money making talent?”

No wonder this sentence was known to everyone in the entire Tianjing city and had turned him into  a laughingstock for everyone. Many parents used to educate their children by saying that: “If you dare imitate that prodigal Hong Dali, then you will see how I break your legs!”

Therefore, such a big reaction from Tang Muxin’s side was indeed reasonable.

Quite natural, after listening to these words of her father, Tang Muxin turned angry and shouted loudly in rage: “Come on, I know that the funding chain in your business has problems, your company has a poor turnover. That’s why you want to draw loan through this engagement. You think that I don’t know anything? Dad, you are selling your daughter!”

“Well, if I were not in such a difficult situation then I will never……” Tang Ruisi helplessly shook his head: “This situation has gone out of our hands, now we are unable to make it through, it won’t take long before we will be forced to declare our bankruptcy. Xin Xin, I don’t want this……”

“Then that means you will sell your daughter, right?” Tang Muxin started crying: “He is a spendthrift, even if you draw the loan but then what? Even if we will be married in the future but don’t you ever consider how much of his family wealth would be squandered by him by that time? Boo hoo…… ”

“This is also……” Tang Ruisi frowned and thought for a while, suddenly his eyes lit up and he said: “Xin Xin, how about this? You get engaged first, and when my company will be restored to its normal condition, and when the time comes, we will find an excuse to break the engagement. This time, the fund needed to carry out our research is beyond our budget, once we get adequate funds and so long as this research turns out to be successful, then it’s absolutely going to a huge sensation in the world. Afterward, when the time is right, we will find a way to break off this engagement for good. Even his family won’t have anything to say.”

Tang Muxin sobbed: “Getting engaged is easy, but breaking off an engagement is very difficult. His family business is counted among one of the world’s top five hundred companies, so how can it be so easy?”

It must be said that Tang Muxin was a very smart girl.

Her peerless appearance and talent had already left several men drooling. She naturally knew that if her family business went down then her fate would also go down the same way. The world follows a very fundamental law, the law of the jungle.

For example, in the school, she was being continuously targeted by the eldest son of Liu Family.

So Tang Muxin cried for a while but finally understood that there was no other way besides getting engaged to Hong Dali. Hence, she reluctantly stood up and said: “Well, ok then, let’s go and do this, boo hoo. Dad, in the future, you must remember to break off this engagement for sure. I don’t want to marry that Prodigal!”

“Well, good, for my adorable Xin Xin, Dad will do anything.” Tang Ruisi sighed as he patted her shoulder: “Xin Xin, let’s go.”

……

Hong Dali was sitting on the bed, looking dazed, and had lots of confusions in his mind.

The surrounding environment was very strange for him, and currently, his memories were revolving around a certain problem. At present, all he could recall was that shrilling sound of applying brakes, and the rest of the memories were in a complete mess. These memories were definitely not his own.

“I’m not dead yet, then where am I?” Looking at his own pale and slender hands, Hong Dali thought to himself: “This is not my body, this is not the place where I live, then where is this place?”

He looked around for a while, and thought:”Top priority is to find out the current situation.”

“First –Whether I am dead now or alive. Second – What place is this and what is my identity. Third – What should I do next?”

“Then I will start from the first point.” He pinched on the back of his left hand and squeezed the outermost layer of his greasy skin, then, he rubbed it over and over between his fingers, and felt pain: “This is indeed the feeling of pain, so that proves I am still alive.” He carefully touched his face, neck, ears, and the top of his head: “This body is nothing like my previous body, but still, it’s the body of a human being. So, my present situation is similar to the so-called legend of rebirth from the novels, or maybe crossing to the other world?”

“So let’s move on to the second question, what place is this and what my identity is.” He looked around and saw that the house had a reinforced concrete structure, snow white walls, a variety of modern electric appliances, even there was a computer with a 30-inch LCD monitor in the corner of the room: “Correct, it’s the modern society but I haven’t seen stickers like the stars posted on these walls, various toy models are also something that I have never seen before. Thus according to this logic, don’t tell me this is the legendary parallel world?”

Nobody was around. He carefully stood up and took a deep breath: “This body is really weak, as thin as a bamboo stick. I really don’t want to die a violent death all of a sudden.”

He turned on the computer and browsed through several websites. Soon, he saw various content that delivered information about an entirely different Earth. At least now he could figure out a few things: “First, the language of this country or this world is Chinese. Second, indeed it’s a parallel world, a lot of things are different from the Earth, but also not too many differences are there. Third, this world hasn’t exceeded the other one in terms of ability; it’s also a technical world and does not use Martial arts practice or anything like that.”

After confirming that this was indeed a parallel world, his next step was to find out his own identity. Although he searched all over the room but didn’t find anything which could confirm his own identity: “It’s strange, why cannot I remember the name of the previous owner of this body? Why are there no identity cards?” He thought so but quickly felt relieved: “Oh, look at the age of this body, it’s not that high, it is only about seventeen or eighteen years old. Id card is probably still with the government and hasn’t been sent yet, after all, this world is different from my world, some fine distinctions can also be considered as normal. ”

As he was thinking about this, his mind was suddenly overflowed with massive disorderly information, immediately followed by a severe pain. He squatted down on the ground, waited for some time, and finally felt the pain reducing. However, a sudden burst of an emotionless metallic voice transmitted to his mind.

“Prodigal System discovers the host, binding process begins, please wait for a while ……”

“Prodigal system binding process successful, current rank: Level 1.”

The system voice said and immediately the image of a mean-looking person appeared in Hong Dali’s mind. It seemed like he was actually seeing one’s own nasty face. He saw that on the right side of the face, some information was written in a row –

“Host Name: Hong Dali.”

“Strength: 36 Speed: 41 Reaction: 52 Health: 39 Sexuality: 32 Note: The normal index for each attribute is 100.”

Thunderstruck, Hong Dali looked at it: “Prodigal System? Is this thing real or fake? Strength is just 36, as expected this guy is physically very weak, so his speed is 41, response time is 52, that means his reflex is quite good. Health is 39, which means he is likely to die at any time, ah etc. Wait, sexuality is 32? Crap, I cannot endure this anymore!”

He quickly pulled open the top of his trousers and looked at it without demur, which ended in just a moment. As a result, he suddenly felt a 10,000 volt of current running wildly in his heart – It was only 50 % of the size of his own little finger?! How could someone have such a small dingding?

A man absolutely couldn’t do anything with such a small thing. This was absolutely not good!

Hong Dali burst into tears: “I feel like killing myself. Anyways just forget about it, I should see if it’s possible to cross through once again ……”

Fortunately, it is said that Heaven never seals off all the exits, there’s always a way out. Seeing Hong Dali anxious and thinking about committing suicide, that metallic voice said once again: “Explanation: Each time the host spends 100,000 Yuan, he can obtain one attribute point, and when the host’s all attributes reach the normal person level, the Prodigal System will promote him to the next level and he can join a new stage with new items. Please do look forward to it.”

“I can obtain attribute points?!” At this time, a beaming smile appeared on his face, “So, I just need to get the attribute points by being prodigal in order to let myself become same as normal people?”

Although the system voice was still very cold and emotionless, but this time, when it transmitted inside his brain, he felt like listening to a sweet melodious voice: “Yes.”

Hong Dali almost jumped up in excitement: “I want to squander money! I want to be the greatest prodigal ever!”

“Then next, I ask the Host to pick up the first mission: The first Prodigal Mission requirements: Midnight, before 12 o’ clock, at least spend 100,000 Yuan. Task Reward: Attribute +1 point. Failure Penalty: Deduction of 5 points from any of the host’s attributes, selected at random.”

“The Current Prodigal Amount Spent: 0.”

After listening to what the Prodigal System said just now, he immediately started to panic and got covered in cold sweat: “Midnight, before 12:00 o’clock, I must spend 100,000 Yuan? But now it’s already 8:00 pm! Just four hours left, it’s not good, I must go out now! I need to be prodigal dammit!”

While he was busy thinking about what to do next, suddenly, the door to his room was gently opened from outside. An old maid entered the room, slightly bowed to him and softly said: “Young master Dali, Sir and Madam want to see you, please come with me.”
