I'm a senior in high school, and the system says I'm going on a blind date with my childho

Chapter 1: Thank you for the invitation. I'm currently in my final year of high school, but my mind is on blind dates.
Jiyang Middle School, Class 15, Grade 12.

Inside the classroom, the electric fan was whirring loudly.

August in Jiyang is probably not too hot.

Otherwise, why isn't the air conditioning on in the classroom?
Shen Yuan lay on the table, using a tall pile of books to create a graveyard for himself.

According to the laws of physics, the speed of an electric fan is positively correlated with the "intensity of summer drowsiness".

Shen Yuan was sleeping soundly in the cemetery.

As the saying goes.

Why sleep so much in life, when you're destined to sleep forever after death?

But Shen Yuan had something to say.

He wanted to try out what it felt like to be in eternal sleep first.

If things go well, he'll go to sleep first.

Just as Shen Yuan had shifted to a more comfortable sleeping position, he suddenly heard a soft "bang" from the pile of books.

He groggily raised his head and, through his blurry vision, saw a familiar figure: his homeroom teacher, Zhou Zhenghong, was standing in front of his desk, looking at him expressionlessly.

"Good afternoon, Lao Zhou," Shen Yuan greeted weakly, his voice still a little groggy.

"Have you slept enough?" Old Zhou's tone was gentle, but Shen Yuan could sense a hint of dissatisfaction in his words.

Shen Yuan shook his head and muttered, "He hasn't died enough yet."

Old Zhou rolled his eyes, thinking to himself that this idiot kid was hopeless.

He pointed to the back of the classroom and said to Shen Yuan, "Go stand there for a while, wake up, and get back to normal."

"Okay!" Shen Yuan readily agreed and stood up from his seat.

The student sitting on the far right made way for Shen Yuan, and Shen Yuan stood at the back of the classroom.

However, less than two seconds later, Shen Yuan began to get restless.

He shifted his feet slightly, as if searching for a more comfortable standing position, and then slowly moved a step to the side, allowing himself to bask fully in the warm sunlight.

"Why the change of venue?" Old Zhou's voice drifted leisurely from the podium.

"Let's bask in the sun, get rid of the lividity, and start anew," Shen Yuan replied with a grin.

Old Zhou gave a thumbs up: "Exquisite."

A burst of laughter erupted in the classroom, instantly dispelling much of the morning drowsiness.

Shen Yuan had no regrets about this.

That's just his nature.

That's how the elite classes are; their primary focus is on academic performance.

As long as your grades are good and you're happy, that's all that matters.

Shen Yuan is also a master of bringing joy.

Although he only ascended from the parallel class to the upper realm this year, Shen Yuan has already integrated into this happy family in just one week.

It also implies bringing more happiness to those around them.

Shen Yuan watched as Old Zhou continued his eloquent speech on the blackboard.

As a math teacher, Lao Zhou certainly has a knack for teaching.

Compared to his previous math teacher who taught him for two years, Shen Yuan can now at least understand some complex problem-solving approaches.

Just as Shen Yuan was in a daze, a notification sound suddenly went off in his head.

At 22, you graduated from university. Since your major wasn't particularly advantageous, you ended up working in a factory. Of course, graduation also brought you a breakup with your girlfriend.

[At 24, due to a disagreement with your boss, you were fired in a fit of anger after your kind words. You received compensation and then found a new job.]

At 25, you found a girlfriend at work, but you broke up not long after. Your ex-girlfriend spread rumors about you at work, and your already poor reputation quickly plummeted. You quit your job.

At 25, you gave up your job in a big city and returned to Jiyang, where you took the civil service exam and got a government job. The work is a bit tedious, but it's stable.

Seven years have passed in the blink of an eye. At 32, you haven't accomplished anything significant, but you've at least saved up some money, enough to live comfortably in your small town. However, this money can only provide comfort for yourself.

Although your parents don't pressure you to get married, you can tell they still hope you'll start your own family.

But marriage is never that simple. You've tried dating several women, but many relationships don't last. Even with some marriage proposals, the exorbitant dowries force you to give up.

[At 35, your parents are trying to arrange a blind date for you.]

Standing at the crossroads of 35, looking at your parents' expectant eyes, you agree to a blind date. Upon arriving at the meeting place, you discover that the girl is your childhood sweetheart, Li Zhi. [Life Reversal System loaded.]

[Treat Li Zhi, whom I haven't seen in a long time, to a meal. Reward: 1000 yuan.]

system?

Shen Yuan stared at the screen in front of him, feeling a bit overwhelmed.

After looking at it several times, Shen Yuan leaned gently against the blackboard on the back wall of the classroom.

Professional garbage, work failure.

Feeling powerless to make a living, the parents sighed.

"What a suffocating life for such a muscle man."

Shen Yuan felt that he couldn't be happy anymore.

"Am I really that much of a failure at 35? To the point of having to resort to blind dates?"

Shen Yuan was about to sigh when he suddenly realized something, "Wait, aren't I 18 years old now?"

Was the sand coin system introduced too early?
That would be wonderful.

Shen Yuan felt happy again.

But after reviewing his task, Shen Yuan was dumbfounded.

Long time no see?

Looking at his seat, Shen Yuan's gaze fell on the girl with a ponytail next to him.

From Shen Yuan's perspective, he could see the girl's profile.

Just by looking at the girl's profile, you can tell she's going to be a great beauty.

That was Li Zhi, Shen Yuan's childhood sweetheart.

The two grew up together, attending the same schools from elementary to middle school and then high school.

As for the relationship, to be honest, it's a bit strained.

Shen Yuan is good-looking, a bit handsome, and healthy with a good appetite.

There is one problem.

I like abstract concepts, and I can be a bit of a jerk around people I know well.

Stealing Li Zhi's snacks was the least Shen Yuan had ever done.

As for going too far, in the second year of high school, Shen Yuan released the small fish that Li Zhi was raising, saying it was to accumulate good karma for her final exams.

Shen Yuan deserves to be alive today; he should at least kowtow to Li Zhi.

Besides.

Unlike Shen Yuan, Li Zhi was a top student from a young age, consistently ranking among the top students in his class, and always holding a top-three position.

Shen Yuan, on the other hand, is the mischievous type, but fortunately he is quite intelligent, and if he studies hard, his grades are quite good.

That's why he was able to get into the best high school in Jiyang.

Although Shen Yuan attended Jiyang Middle School, he was initially in a regular class, while Li Zhi was in an honors class from the first year of high school.

Shen Yuan also ascended to this position this semester.

Then, by sheer bad luck, he sat next to Li Zhi and started cosplaying as a graveyard next to Li Zhi every day.

As for Li Zhi, she most likely wouldn't consider herself a gravedigger.

If Shen Yuan really becomes a grave, she will open the lid of Shen Yuan's grave and then take the few dollars that Shen Yuan was buried with to buy an ice cream cone at KFC.

Looking at the screen in front of him, Shen Yuan suddenly laughed: "This brat is 35 and still no one wants her?"

Wait, that seems to have gone a bit off-topic.

Shen Yuan's gaze fell on the system screen again.

"Treat Li Zhi to a meal? A reward of 1000 yuan?"

Shen Yuan decided to give it a try after class; it was just a meal.
