Lin Hai High School No. 2, on the lawn by the athletic field.
"What?"
Su Mo looked at the girl in a trance, "Your mother is the principal stockholder of Tianhong Group?"
Tianhong Group.
A super large group with a market value of billions!
It's a well-known enterprise nationwide.
Su Mo is a senior student at Lin Hai High School No. 2, with average academic performance.
If you really had to pick out a merit, it would be he's not bad looking.
The girl standing in front of him has a pair of crystal clear eyes, shiny pupils, a face as exquisite as cream, three thousand strands of black hair casually draped over her back fluttering in the wind, a pair of straight jade-like legs plus that quiet temperament, she looks like a fairy walking out of a comic book.
All the words and descriptions fail to give her beauty justice.
One could say: This girl is supposed to be in the heavens, unknowingly for whom she descended to earth.
The girl's name is Yan Jiuxi, the universally acknowledged top school beauty at High School No. 2.
Her academic performance has firmly occupied the top spot in the senior year. She's the unchallenged goddess in the eyes of all boys!
Everyone loves beauty.
And, of course, Su Mo is no exception to this rule.
He has been infatuated with this quiet, breathtakingly beautiful girl since the beginning of his first year of high school, holding onto this secret crush for a very long time before he finally mustered the courage to confess.
He had no idea what came over Yan Jiu Xi to miraculously accept his confession.
Because of this, Su Mo felt as if he was living in a dream for several consecutive days.
There are more than three thousand students at Linhai Second Middle School, 60% of whom are boys, and there were too many, too many of them infatuated with Yan Jiu Xi...
Among these people, Su Mo was utterly unremarkable.
Every day, boys would confess their feelings to Yan Jiu Xi, but without exception, they were gently rebuffed.
Yet this girl, who was like a fairy, accepted his confession.
He couldn't help but wonder, what good deeds had he done in his previous life?
To be blessed with such favor from the heavens!
"Are you going to be mad at me?"
Yan Jiu Xi bit her lower lip lightly, a hint of worry flashed across her exquisite face.
She was afraid that Su Mo might be filled with complicated thoughts after learning about her identity.
"Mad?"
Su Mo scratched his head in confusion, "I have no reason to be mad!"
Everyone would love to have a girlfriend who is both rich and beautiful; moreover, Yan Jiu Xi is beyond just being beautiful.
It has been almost a month since I confirmed my relationship with Yan Jiuxi, and I'm still frequently stunned by her angelic beauty.
Now, having learned about Yan Jiuxi's family background, I'm even more bewildered.
What kind of luck am I walking on?
How did this unparalleled flower come to fancy me, this pile of cow dung?
Of course...
I may be a pile of dung, but I'm also a little bit handsome!
"Jiuxi, why did you specifically accept my confession? There are many more outstanding guys in the school..."
I've been confused about this for a while now.
Compared to other guys, I don't seem to have any particular advantage.
There are many handsome guys available, so why did Yan Jiuxi choose me?
This question is something I simply can't figure out.
"I choose not to answer."
Yan Jiuxi lightly smiled, her dimple glittering on her cheek, radiating an astonishing beauty.
It's as if a fairy had descended to earth, her single glimpse smile outshining all the stars.
This enchanting scene in front of me has held me captivated, unable to come back to reality for a long while.
By the time he gathered his senses, the beauty had already disappeared without a trace.
After school, Su Mo rides his bicycle home.
"Xiao Mo is back, go wash your hands quickly and get ready for dinner."
Su's mother is a typical homemaker, apart from...
...being a little too exceptionally beautiful.
She is conscientious about her son's clothing, food, housing, and transportation.
Especially at this critical moment in Grade 12.
"Alright, Mom."
Su Mo responded.
After having dinner, he returned to his room and began his rather monotonous academic journey.
Reading comprehension, English listening and so on...
Moreover, the dozens of sheets of test paper which made Su Mo's eyelids twitch.
This is the daily homework of a twelfth grader, utterly dull.
Only at a little past eleven at night, did he finish today's homework.
"When will this life ever end?"
After lying in bed, Su Mo bitterly complained.
He felt like he was devoid of any emotions, simply a learning machine...
His grades have always been average, striking a balance in the middle of the grade level.
But Yan Jiuxi, she had been occupying the top spot in their senior grade level for a long time. The gap between them was more than a hair's breadth.
Facing such an outstanding girlfriend, Su Mo really felt pressured.
There were still three months left until the college entrance examination.
Based on Yan Jiuxi's grades, getting into Tsinghua University was a no-brainer.
If Su Mo couldn't get into a university in the capital city, he would only have to part ways with Yan Jiuxi.
That would mean they would be in a long-distance relationship.
Yet—
If long-distance relationships were reliable, pigs might as well fly!
If he lost such a perfect girlfriend, he would have nowhere to let his tears out...
Su Mo's demands for himself were also not high. As long as he could get into a regular second-tier university in the capital city, he wouldn't have to be separated from Yan Jiuxi. However, given his current grades, he was still far from the admission score of a second-tier university in the capital city.
"Sigh, when will I ever be like those nerds on TV?"
Ding—
"Sensing the host's strong request, the system is automatically activated."
"Activation successful!"
"What the hell?"
Su Mo's eyes widened, and he jumped up from the bed in excitement, his face full of shock.
What did he just hear?
"System? System..."
Su Mo called out tentatively several times, but received no response. Disappointment showed on his face.
"Am I hallucinating from too much academic stress recently?"
"It must be!"
"Forget it, I should just go back to sleep."
After lying down, Su Mo suddenly remembered those novels he had read before. The protagonists seemed to be communicating with the system via their thoughts. With this thought in mind, he hurriedly shouted in his mind.
"Is the system there?"
"Is there anything the host needs?"
A cold, electronic voice echoed in Su Mo's mind.
"Damn, it really works?"
"Roar, roar."
"Could it be, am I about to reach the peak of my life?"
Su Mo leaped up excitedly again with an expression of ecstasy.
One second he was worrying about his grades, the next, a pie fell from the sky and landed squarely on his head.
Truly, no one should presume himself to be neglected by heaven!
After a spell of excitement, Su Mo gradually calmed himself down.
After calming down, he asked inwardly, "System, what functions do you have?"
"This system is the latest high-tech product developed on Planet X, the 'Ultimate Top Student System'. By completing tasks assigned by the system, the host can receive corresponding rewards."
Meanwhile, a virtual page appeared in Su Mo's mind.
Host: Su Mo
Age: 17
Skills: None
Education Level: Ignorant
Points: 0
So it was indeed true!
Upon seeing the virtual image in his mind, Su Mo's eyes lit up instantly, asking in his mind, "System, are there... any tasks available now?"
If he completes a task, can he receive a reward?
One word — Go!
Two words — Do it!
Three words — Take them... all down!
"Ding——"
"The system issues a task, rank in the top ten in the class in tomorrow's exam."
"What?"
Upon hearing this task, Su Mo was utterly dumbfounded.
Speaking of his grades, let alone ranking in the top ten, even the top twenty would be quite a stretch!
There were six classes in his senior year, he was in class three and Yan Jiu was in class one, so-called top-notch class.
All along, Su Mo's grades had been ranking around thirtieth in his class. Suddenly being asked to rank in the top ten was like a pipe dream.
Ranking in the bottom ten would be more like it...
"System, are you joking with me?"
The corner of Su Mo's mouth twitched slightly. Even if the system's reward was outstanding, he wouldn't be able to receive it, because he couldn't complete the task at all.
At this very moment, he truly wanted to howl at the sky: "I can't do it!"
"Considering the host's extremely poor foundation, a mysterious gift is granted. Would you like to open it now?"
"Open it!"
Upon hearing this, Su Mo really wanted to hug the system and give it a kiss. This mysterious gift was like a timely assistance to him.
"Congratulations, host, for gaining the skill 'photographic memory'."
"That's it?"
Su Mo paused. He originally thought that, like in novels, there would be a series of rewards. He didn't expect to only have a photographic memory.
Wait!
Photographic memory?
Seriously?
Quickly getting out of bed, Su Mo went to his desk and started reading his physics textbook.
A few minutes later, the room was filled with the sound of manic laughter.
"Son, what's wrong?"
Not too long after, the voice of Su Mo's mother suddenly came from outside the door, startling him. He quickly explained: "Nothing much, I just suddenly figured out a math problem and got a bit too excited."
"You should go to bed now, you still have school tomorrow."
"I'll sleep right away."
As soon as she heard the sound of the door closing, Su Mo let out a sigh of relief, forcefully suppressing her inner excitement, she eagerly started testing her ability of photogenic memory.
Start photogenic memory!
Five minutes later, Su Mo sat at her desk, staring blankly ahead.
She stared straight at the language textbook in her hand, she could actually recite it backward fluently???......
10 lines at a glance? No!
To be precise, it was a page at a glance!
Photogenic memory... it's so abnormal!
After being thrilled for a long time, Su Mo finally calmed down.
She took out all of her high school textbooks and notes, and started reading without stopping.
After finishing, she even went online to search for explanations on senior year knowledge, reading all the materials she could find.
Busy until past 3 am, Su Mo, so tired that she could hardly keep her eyes open, finally went to bed with peace in her mind.
......
The legendary life begins henceforth!
