I’m From an Ordinary Family, for Real!

Chapter 1: Binding a Big Shot

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

As an ordinary second-year student, Chen Chu did not think that there was anything special about him even though he was bound to the Perfect Life System. This was because there was no movement from this system after he was bound to it for many years.

There was no beginner’s gift bag, no mission interface, or even the System Shop. There was only an empty system screen.

Chen Chu’s initial smugness gradually turned into hysteria, to dishearten, and now, he no longer cared. As expected, he was just an ordinary person among all living beings. He did not have the fate of a protagonist.

Chen Chu sighed and fanned himself faster. He was getting more and more frustrated.

The weather in Guangdong Province at the end of April was stuffy and hot, especially since it was still noon. The classroom was as stuffy as a steamer. It was useless to turn on the eight ceiling fans until the wind speed was the highest, as the wind was hot.

His deskmate, Wang Hai, tugged at his collar. He was so hot that his forehead was covered in sweat. He quickly fanned himself. “This school doesn’t even have an air conditioner. It’s so hot.”

Chen Chu grinned. “Be content! I’ve never heard of any school in our city installing air-conditioning for classrooms.”

“Let’s go to the washroom to wash our faces and cool ourselves down.” The two of them walked out of the classroom.

…

At the same time, in an elegant park in the city.

Chen Baijia, the chairman of the Chen Corporation, suddenly heard an electronic voice in his mind.

[Ding! System bound!]

[Upon completing the mission, the affinity with the ‘target person’ will increase, and the relationship will be upgraded. Rewards will be obtained.]

[Target: Chen Chu]

[Identity file: Click to view.]

[Current task: Install air conditioning for Chen Chu’s classroom]

[Mission Reward: ???]

[Ding! Binding Gift Bag has been issued!]

Chen Baijia paused for a moment, put down his pen, and picked up the phone. “Little Li, invite a psychiatrist over.” With that, he hung up the phone and took off his glasses. He leaned against the back of the chair tiredly. He was so tired that he was hallucinating. He leaned back in his chair and tapped his fingers on the armrest. He closed his eyes and a screen suddenly appeared in front of him.

Chen Baijia opened his eyes in shock. He hurriedly closed his eyes again, and the screen was still in front of him.

At this moment, a line of words appeared on the bright blue screen. [Do you want to open the binding gift bag?]

Chen Baijia’s heart raced. After hesitating for a while, he chose ‘yes’.

[Congratulations on opening the binding gift bag. Please choose one of the following options as your reward: One: Two years of lifespan. Two: A healthy and young body.]

Chen Baijia’s breathing quickened as he looked at the enviable reward. He subconsciously blurted out, “Can I take them all?”

As he grew older, Chen Baijia could feel his energy decreasing year by year, and his health deteriorating. Although he was well-maintained and only looked to be in his thirties, only he knew that he was not young anymore.

Especially the older he got, the more afraid he was of death. He was so rich and had not enjoyed this wonderful world enough. How could he die?! He wanted his lifespan, and he wanted to recover his healthy and young body.

The system refused.

Chen Baijia was extremely disappointed. After hesitating for a while, he chose a healthy body. He could not prove that he had increased his lifespan, but a healthy young body could not be faked.

The next moment, he suddenly stood up. He was full of vigor, surging vitality, a body that did not feel sluggish, and a clear mind. His decreased vision, sluggish sense of smell, and hidden injuries were all healed. Although he still had a 48-year-old body and his lifespan had not increased, it was real!

Chen Baijia was overjoyed and hurriedly checked the screen. He wanted to figure out what was going on. A moment later, he muttered to himself, “A student named Chen Chu? Studying at the Experimental No.1 High School? He’s from an ordinary family and his parents ran a meat stall? From the identity file provided by the system, he’s just an ordinary person. Why does everything in the system revolve around him?”

He knocked on the armrest and picked up the phone. “Little Li, tell the psychiatrist to go back. In addition, contact the principal of Experimental No.1 High School. I have the intention to donate 10 million yuan to Experimental No.1 High School to contribute to the education of the next generation. Tomorrow, I’ll go to the school to take a look at the children’s learning environment.”

Money was not useless to him, but before it reached a certain amount, it was just a number. However, as long as he could create an opportunity to get to know Chen Chu tomorrow, the money would be worth it.

In addition, he did not forget the mission of the system to install an air conditioner in Chen Chu’s classroom. A portion of the 10 million yuan was for the cost of installing air conditioners in all the classrooms in Experimental No.1 High School.

…

In the washroom on the fourth floor of the third academic building.

Chen Chu washed his face and rinsed off the sweat on it. He immediately felt refreshed. Before returning to the classroom, Chen Chu’s hair was blown out of shape by the hot wind in the corridor.

Chen Chu was very satisfied. On a whim, he suddenly remembered the Perfect Life System that he had almost forgotten. He opened the system and his eyes suddenly widened. He looked at the system screen in surprise.

On it was a line of words.

[Ding! You have received a binding gift bag for the first time. Reward: Telekinesis.]

[Binding Gift Bag: Three years of lifespan or a healthy and young body (Both available).]

[Additional Reward: Three Disease Remedy Pills (Heal all diseases).]

[System Space activated!]

F*ck, is there something wrong with the system?!

…

In the afternoon, during the third period, speakers all over the school suddenly sounded.

“Now, I would like to invite all teachers, school leaders, and committee members to the meeting room for a meeting. Students will self-study. Repeat. All teachers, school leaders, and committee members, please head to the conference room for a meeting. Students will self-study!”

(Committee members refers to the students who join the school committee.)

The language teacher who was teaching Chen Chu’s class frowned when he heard the announcement. High school time was tight and missions were heavy. Usually, they would not inform the teachers of an emergency meeting during class, unless it was a special event.

The language teacher put down the mouse. “I’m going to a meeting. The vice class monitor will supervise the discipline. The other students will study by themselves. The class monitor is coming with me to the meeting.”

Chen Chu stood up and followed behind the language teacher. He was the class monitor and the class secretary.
