It turns out I'm a second-generation demon.

This mixed-use commercial and residential area boasts a full range of shops, forming a small-scale living system. You could stay inside the community for a month without leaving and wouldn't have to worry about shortages; there are even specialty stores for mobile phones and computers. If you get dizzy from playing games at home, there's a general hospital on the next street.

Li Xianyu went downstairs and walked more than 200 meters to the pharmacy.

Just then, the phone rang. The caller was Yang Guangtai!

My college roommate.

"Li Xianyu, did you skip class or ask for leave? Why didn't you come to school?" Yang Guangtai asked.

"I'm not feeling well, so I'm resting at home," Li Xianyu said.

"Is it serious? I still want to play PUBG with you."

"It's nothing serious, you should be able to come to class tomorrow."

"That's good," Yang Guangtai said. "There are only two of us single guys in the dorm, and no one plays games with me."

Li Xianyu lived on campus for the first semester, but now he mostly lives at home. Occasionally, they'll sit together and play games like online gaming or PUBG. If they play late, he'll stay in the dorm to rest.

Li Xianyu: "...Is being single something to be proud of? You always say that. Besides, I'm not a single dog, I'm a single aristocrat, unlike you single dogs."

None of us have girlfriends, but being single makes a difference.

We are different.

The thought of her family's hereditary kidney deficiency weighed heavily on Li Xianyu's mind.

I arrived at the pharmacy, hung up the phone, and pushed open the door. A middle-aged man in a white coat stood behind the counter and asked, "What do you need?"

Eh?

Li Xianyu suddenly realized that he had forgotten the name of the medicine.

What was it called again?

"I can't remember the full name of the medicine," Li Xianyu said, scratching his head.

"It's alright, you just need to say two words from the medicine," the middle-aged man said with a confident smile. "I've been selling medicine for over ten years. Even if you only remember one word, I can guess it."

Li Xianyu said, "I only remember the last two words."

The middle-aged man nodded: "Go on."

Li Xianyu pondered for a moment and said, "Capsule..."

Middle-aged man: "......."

The middle-aged man's face darkened. "What the hell are these capsules? You're not here to buy medicine, you're here to cause trouble, aren't you?"

Li Xianyu chuckled and said, "I'll call my friend and ask."

Fortunately, he gave his discarded iPhone 6 to his great-grandmother.

After making the call, Li Xianyu said, "Two boxes of 'Kidney Tonic' capsules."

After he finished speaking, he noticed the uncle was first taken aback, then looked at him strangely. Li Xianyu suddenly remembered—this medicine was for treating kidney deficiency…

Middle-aged man: (￢_￢)

Li Xianyu: (￣ω￣;)

After paying for the medicine, Li Xianyu's face burned with embarrassment as she rushed out of the pharmacy. "This is so damn shameful! I'll have my great-grandmother buy it for me next time."

......

After returning home, he took two pills and lay down on the sofa to rest. He could only lie down; his back ached when he stood, and lying down was the only comfortable position. His great-grandmother had recently become enthusiastic about playing computer games, so Li Xianyu taught her step by step. He also topped up Lao Ma's account with some money and bought his great-grandmother a cheap skin.

Hereditary kidney deficiency became a major worry for Li Xianyu; he thought about it during the day and dreamed about it at night.

He woke up in despair and sorrow, his pillow half wet with tears.

My kidneys still feel empty, and I occasionally experience a sharp pain. The miracle drug recommended by my great-grandmother didn't work immediately.

Li Xianyu put a capsule in his pocket, slung his schoolbag over his shoulder, and headed out to school.

Grandma chose to stay home because Li Xianyu had downloaded a lot of online games for her last night. Although battle royale games had suddenly appeared, Tencent still dominated the online gaming market. Therefore, most of the downloaded games were developed by Tencent.

Grandma found it very interesting and quickly fell in love with online games. Last night, she played games and watched movies alone in the living room all night long, with boundless energy.

Although she has only been awakened from the seal for two days, her experiences these past few days have been very interesting. This era is very interesting, much more interesting than the late Qing Dynasty, the Republic of China, and the early years of the People's Republic of China that she experienced.

People in this era no longer have to worry about filling their stomachs, nor do they have to live in fear of foreign devils' guns and cannons. Potato chips and spicy strips are so delicious, and yogurt, she still remembers the sweet and sour taste.

Her entertainment life was equally abundant. The television was huge, and there were all sorts of movies. You have to understand that back then, her and her ex-great-grandson's biggest evening entertainment was watching the news on a black-and-white television, and occasionally going to a dance hall to ballroom dance. As for going to the movies, that was even rarer, mainly because her ex-great-grandson's earning power wasn't great, and it wasn't enough for her to spend.

My great-grandmother was the daughter of a wealthy family. Even though she had been dead for so many years, she still spent money lavishly. How could she not have enough allowance? Back then, she ate so many snacks that Li Xianyu's father cried.

And computers are so interesting! You can play games, watch DVDs, and chat with people.

When Li Xianyu left, his great-grandmother was playing a game called "Dungeon Fighter Online". She learned things very quickly and could easily get the hang of it. She was playing an account that Li Xianyu had abandoned many years ago, and now she could enter the PvP arena and compete with others.

Grandma's hand speed was almost enough to crush all her opponents, but Li Xianyu's account hadn't been played for several years, and his level and equipment were outdated. No matter how fast Grandma's hand speed was, it was too late to turn the tide, and he lost one match after another.

She slammed her little hand on the table in anger.

Switching to the webpage, I awkwardly typed with two fingers: Why can't my Sword Soul beat others?!

She uses the Wubi input method, which was taught to her by Li Xianyu's father.

Not getting a satisfactory answer, the clever great-grandmother changed her words: How to become stronger in the game!

The search results are in....

Twist: Young man, want to get stronger? Come and recharge your account!

Top up your account?

Grandma had a sudden inspiration; she remembered that Li Wuxiang had left behind a huge sum of 200,000 yuan.

That money wasn't actually for her son; it was for her alimony.

......

Li Xianyu is a student at the University of Finance and Economics, majoring in finance. Shanghai is the national financial center, and graduates of the finance department of the University of Finance and Economics are generally able to find a decent job after graduation, as long as they don't just coast through their university years.

There is a professional class in the morning, taught by the school's famous Professor Qin, known in the academic community as: Spicy Old Radish!

He always conducts surprise tests, and the grades are linked to the final exam. Anyone who skips class will most likely fail and have to retake the final exam.

But the reason he is so famous is because he has a good son, a quick-draw expert known to everyone. Although he has been out of the public eye for many years, his legend still lives on.

Li Xianyu is quite dedicated to her major courses. Although being a local student gave her an advantage in getting into the University of Finance and Economics, her own qualities also need to be excellent. But she wasn't in a good state today and couldn't concentrate on the lecture.

Men who experience excessive loss of semen will experience this: seeing double, feeling mentally exhausted, and unable to concentrate.

Someone gently poked his kidney twice. It was his roommate, Yang Guangtai, who shrank his neck and whispered, "You missed class yesterday and missed a good show."

"What a show."

"You still don't know? Didn't you check the class WeChat group?"

"Speak your mind, or keep it to yourself."

"Zhang Mingyu is dead."

"What?! Zhang Mingyu is dead?!"

The news came so unexpectedly that he instinctively exclaimed in surprise, startling Professor Qin, who was giving a presentation in Russian on the podium.

The students around him turned to look, and Professor Qin became even more furious. "The classroom is a place for learning, not for gossiping. Save your topics for after class."

Li Xianyu shrank back.

Suppressing his curiosity, he didn't dare ask any further questions. He waited until the class ended, then grabbed Yang Guangtai's arm, both shocked and gossipy: "What happened? He's dead?!"
