I was born and listened to my neighbor's older sister talk about her family of origin.

When Hao Mei and Jiang Cheng returned to the bench where she had arranged to meet her parents, they had just arrived.

It was almost noon, so the three of them went to a nearby old street for lunch.

We strolled around for a while in the afternoon, and soon it was evening.

After walking all day, Hao Mei and Jiang Cheng were so exhausted they were practically collapsed on the bed, while Jiang Ye didn't seem to feel anything.

It must be the physical fitness reward from the system that's taking effect.

He only feels slightly tired, but his energy is still quite high.

After thinking for a moment, Jiang Ye picked up his phone and searched for "Mingyue Xiaoju".

The location is right on the shore of Erhai Lake, quite far from his hotel, about 20 or 30 kilometers away.

Although I really want to go find Lin Youxun now, it's already very late.

Hao Mei might let him go out alone during the day, but definitely not at night.

After all, he is only twelve years old.

Jiang Ye put down his phone, lay on the bed, propped his hands behind his head, and began to let his thoughts wander.

Hao Mei planned to stay in Yun City for a week this time.

He needed to carefully plan how he should appear in Lin Youxun's world within this week.

The most difficult part is figuring out how to remind her family.

How should I start the conversation?

"Hello, uncles and aunts, I'm just a twelve-year-old kid, but I know your daughter will get ALS later in life. You'd better take her for a checkup now?"

What a joke.

It would be strange if she didn't get beaten up by her younger sister, Lin Xinghe, who looked like she was not to be trifled with.

Jiang Ye turned over irritably and buried his face in the pillow.

That's ALS (Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis).

Even if he manages to tell Lin Youxun's family now, what difference will it make?

The causes of this condition, besides genetics, are mostly due to unpredictable problems with one's own nerve cells and genes.

Even if he manages to convince her family, risking being seen as a fraudster or a madman, the result might only be that they fall into despair prematurely.

It's just a matter of dying early or late.

This realization hit me like a bucket of ice water, poured over me from head to toe.

Jiang Ye was reborn and gained the ability to see the future. He also managed to meet Lin Youzai Xun ahead of time.

In the end, faced with the mountain of "terminal illness," he was still just an unarmed mortal.

He might be able to use the money he earns from future knowledge to fully hire people to research and develop treatments for ALS.

In my previous life, even more than a decade later, ALS was still an incurable disease.

Even if he invests all his money, the best-case scenario is that he can only achieve his goal a few years earlier.

But by then, Lin Youxun could no longer wait.

"Hold."

Jiang Ye cursed under his breath and slammed his fist on the soft mattress, but it didn't make a sound.

All his strength was swallowed up by the cotton and spring, just like his current feeling of powerlessness and anger, with nowhere to be vented.

In this second life, will he still be forced to watch helplessly as Lin Youxun's life slowly fades away, until she is confined to that small wheelchair, until even breathing becomes a luxury?

"Beep beep beep".

Just then, a QQ notification sound rang out, pulling Jiang Ye back to reality.

He took a deep breath, calmed his thoughts, picked up his phone, and switched to the chat interface.

It turned out to be a message from Ji Xiaoxiao.

He kept his phone in his bag all day and barely looked at it.

Clicking on Ji Xiaoxiao's Winnie the Pooh profile picture, dozens of messages popped up instantly, almost freezing the screen.

All of them are works by Ji Xiaoxiao.

Most of them are landscape photos, along with her own selfies and photos taken by him.

Jiang Ye's whole family came to travel, and Ji Xiaoxiao naturally went along as well.

Jiang Ye came to Yun City, while Ji Xiaoxiao and her family went to Hengdian.

Furthermore, Ji Yue's vacation time is limited, and he can only spend two or three days traveling with his family. It is estimated that Ji Xiaoxiao and the others will have to return to Jiangcheng in the next two days.

On his phone, Jiang Ye slowly scrolled through the photos Ji Xiaoxiao had sent him.

Ji Xiaoxiao's landscape photos were all crooked and distorted, either blurry or overexposed.

Her selfies are all close-up shots, taken at extremely tricky angles, and in every single one, she's holding all sorts of food.

Jiang Ye was both amused and exasperated.

He was genuinely puzzled as to how this girl had found such a fresh and unique shooting angle.

Moreover, as a girl, didn't she realize that sending such a historical photo to a boy would give him any reason to use it against her?

The rest of the photos he took were much more normal; they were clearly taken by Chen Mei.

In the photos, Ji Xiaoxiao is wearing a brightly colored traditional Chinese dress, holding a round fan, and her hair is tied into two buns. She poses in various ways in front of the ornately decorated building.

Sometimes he would rest his chin on his hand and gaze into the distance, sometimes he would stroke his zither as if about to play.

Without the aid of food, she appears lively and adorable, like a little fairy who stepped out of a painting.

Unfortunately, Jiang Ye knew in his heart that this girl's fairy-like shelf life was probably only as long as a single photograph.

Officer Xiaoxiao: "Aye! There are so many people here, it's so crowded!"

"We waited in a really long line to take photos, it was so hot!"

"This outfit is so thick, but I'll wear it for the sake of getting good photos!"

"Wow, I saw some real celebrities! They're all so good-looking!"

"Jiang Ye, what are you doing?! Even if you're playing or eating, you can't ignore my messages!!"

"Are you deliberately ignoring me? It's been all day!"

Jiang Ye found it increasingly amusing as he looked at it, and a smile involuntarily crept onto his lips.

After reading all her messages, he typed: "Remember to bring me local specialties when you come back."

The reply came almost instantly.

Officer Xiaoxiao: "Local specialties? I've already eaten them all. Here's an autograph from a super pretty celebrity, do you want it?"

Jiang Ye was surprised; she actually managed to get an autograph?

He was quite curious.

"Whose is it? Let me see?"

There was a moment of silence on the other end, then a photo was sent.

Jiang Ye immediately clicked on it.

Then I saw the three large, elegant characters "Ji Xiaoxiao".

Jiang Ye: "..."

The next second, Ji Xiaoxiao sent a voice message, which, when opened, was met with endless mockery.

"Hahahaha, you fell for it! Serves you right for not replying to my messages, and now you want me to bring you local specialties the moment you do! Humph!"

Jiang Ye sneered, and also opened the voice chat, sending out a cold and ruthless message.

"Don't expect me to let you copy your homework in junior high!"

Ji Xiaoxiao: "..."

Officer Xiaoxiao: "[Pitiful.jpg] I was wrong."

Jiang Ye sent out an emoji of an emperor looking down from above.

"Hmm, it's good that you know your mistake."

After chatting and joking with Ji Xiaoxiao for a while, Jiang Ye's originally heavy and irritable mood improved a lot.

Seeing Lin Youxun today finally calmed my somewhat confused mind completely.

He thought of the system.

The biggest difference between Jiang Ye and everyone else right now is his system, isn't it?

Now, this is the only way.

"System, do you think it's possible that you could give someone a mission, and the reward would be a treatment for ALS?"

Jiang Ye asked.

Although this system has a low profile and only appears once every few years, it is still a system.

Since you can provide knowledge of all subjects in high school, you should also be able to provide treatment methods for ALS!
