Qiu Yingying is reborn and bound to a learning system.

Qiu Yingying didn't sleep soundly.

My dream was full of jumbled fragments—dim lighting, swaying shadows, a man's taut jawline, and my own panting.

She dreamt of being forced to drink by her colleagues at a company party, then of staggering around in an underground parking garage, and then of clinging to someone and refusing to let go, muttering, "Don't run away."

"Don't run away...you're so warm..." she mumbled in her sleep, her hand still grabbing at the blanket.

Startled by her shout deep within her consciousness, Duoduo nearly jumped out of the corner. "Meow?! Host, what are you trying to do now?!"

Fortunately, Qiu Yingying simply turned over and hugged the blanket tighter, but her brows remained tightly furrowed, as if she were struggling and agonizing even in her dream.

As the sunlight gradually rises, it casts dappled shadows on the floor through the gaps in the curtains.

The bedroom was so quiet that only Qiu Yingying's even breathing and the occasional sound of wind from outside the window could be heard.

Qiu Yingying didn't know how long she had slept, but her eyelashes trembled slightly, and she finally slowly opened her eyes.

She stared blankly at the ceiling for a few seconds, her eyes vacant, as if she hadn't fully emerged from her dream.

Then, the memories of last night, like shattered glass, surged up uncontrollably once again—

The smell of alcohol, the cool fragrance of the man, the cold water in the bathtub, and myself... the image of touching him indiscriminately.

Qiu Yingying's eyes widened instantly.

"ah--!!!"

She sat up abruptly, clutching the blanket and screaming, her voice filled with despair and shame.

Duo Duo was so frightened by her sudden scream that she almost jumped out of her skin. "Meow!!! Host, are you back from the dead!!!"

Qiu Yingying grabbed her hair with both hands and scratched it violently. "How can I possibly sleep?! How dare I sleep?!"

She now desperately wants to rush out and run ten kilometers to leave all the memories of last night behind.

Duo Duo patted her little chest, still feeling a bit shaken, and said, "You were so tired last night, it's normal that you could sleep well..."

"You still dare to talk back?!" Qiu Yingying glared at it, her eyes practically spitting fire. "If you hadn't failed to wake me up, I could... I could..."

What can she do?

Could she do something so...daring?

Qiu Yingying's face flushed red again as she thought about how she had clung to him and groped him all over last night.

But then I thought—

It seems... not too bad?

Who cares? I've already died once, this life is just for fun!

Although the process was a bit absurd, it seems... not entirely unacceptable?

Qiu Yingying touched her face and found that she actually felt like laughing.

Duo Duo looked at her, completely bewildered. "Host, why are you breaking down one minute and laughing the next? Are you alright?"

"It's nothing, it's nothing," Qiu Yingying waved her hand, took a deep breath, and tried to calm herself down. "I'm just... sorting out my feelings."

She thought for a moment, then added, "Besides, it doesn't seem like... we're not really at a disadvantage."

Duo Duo: "..."

It suddenly couldn't understand its host anymore.

Qiu Yingying lifted the covers, preparing to get out of bed.

As soon as I stood up, I felt a slight itch on my neck.

She subconsciously reached out and touched it.

Her heart skipped a beat, and she quickly ran to the mirror.

In the mirror, there were several obvious red marks on her neck, as if she had been sucked hard.

Qiu Yingying: "..."

Her face instantly turned as red as a ripe tomato.

"Oh no, oh no, oh no..." she cried, covering her face. "How can I face anyone like this?!"

I definitely can't go out today!

If Fan Shengmei or Guan Juer sees this, she'll be in deep trouble no matter what! If Qu Xiaoxiao sees this, it'll be even worse.

Qiu Yingying immediately climbed back into bed, picked up her phone, and opened the food delivery app.

I'm staying home today. I'll order some good food and treat myself to something nice to calm my nerves.

She first ordered a large Super Supreme Pizza with double cheese and her favorite bacon, mushrooms, and black olives. She also ordered a family bucket of fried chicken, which included chicken wings, chicken legs, chicken nuggets, and popcorn chicken. She even noted that she wanted the "skin to be fried a little crispier."

After thinking for a moment, she added a serving of fries and a serving of baked sweet potato with cheese, and finally ordered a large cup of bubble tea with ice, milk foam, and coconut jelly, and chose the normal sweetness level.

Duo Duo watched in stunned silence. "Host, are you trying to eat yourself into a ball?"

"What's wrong with eating something good?" Qiu Yingying said matter-of-factly. "Besides, I'm feeling so complicated right now, I need some good food to comfort me."

Duo Duo: "..."

It felt that it might never understand the human brain.

The food arrived quickly.

Qiu Yingying, wearing pajamas, carefully opened the door, and after confirming that no one was outside, quickly brought in the takeout and then slammed the door shut.

She placed the pizza and fried chicken on the table, inserted the straw into the milk tea, and sat on the bed with the food in her arms. She leaned against the headboard, propped up with two pillows behind her back, and settled into the most comfortable position.

"Let's eat!"

Qiu Yingying picked up a slice of pizza first. The cheese stretched so long it almost reached the back of her hand. She couldn't wait to take a big bite. The crust was soft yet slightly chewy, and the cheese melted in her mouth, so rich it almost enveloped her whole body. The salty aroma of the bacon, the umami of the mushrooms, and the slight tartness of the black olives blended perfectly in her mouth.

"Mmm...it's so delicious!" Qiu Yingying squinted her eyes and sighed contentedly.

She picked up another piece of fried chicken. The skin was golden and crispy, and it made a "crunch" sound when she took a bite. The chicken inside was tender and juicy, with a slight spiciness and garlic flavor. She took a bite of fried chicken and a sip of milk tea. The pearls were chewy and bouncy, the milk foam was just the right balance of salty and sweet, and the icy milk tea slid down her throat, instantly washing away the greasiness of the fried chicken.

"Awesome!" Qiu Yingying snapped her fingers, picked up another fries, dipped them in ketchup, and popped them into her mouth. The fries were crispy on the outside and soft on the inside, with a subtle potato flavor. Paired with the sweet and sour ketchup, they were so delicious that she couldn't help but squint her eyes.

She ate and drank milk tea at the same time, and her mood gradually improved.

Halfway through her meal, she remembered something and placed the baked sweet potato with cheese in front of her. The sweet potato was baked until soft, sweet, and fragrant, covered with a thick layer of cheese, which was slightly browned and emitted an enticing aroma. Qiu Yingying scooped up a spoonful, the sweet potato puree and cheese stretching long and thin. She blew on it, then put it in her mouth. The sweetness of the sweet potato and the saltiness of the cheese intertwined, rich yet not cloying, warming her from her stomach all the way to her heart.

Duoduo watched her from the side and couldn't help but complain, "Host, you don't look like you just went through a 'major life event' last night at all."

"What else can I do?" Qiu Yingying said while chewing on fried chicken. "Do you expect me to cry and whine, or threaten to kill myself? What's done is done, and I can't change it. I might as well have a good meal and then think of a solution."

She paused, then picked up another slice of pizza. "Besides, good food is the best medicine for everything."

Looking at her, Duoduo suddenly felt that her host seemed... a little different.

She is no longer the little girl who panicked and cried at the slightest thing.

Perhaps this is what growing up is all about.

After eating and drinking her fill, Qiu Yingying burped, patted her round belly, lay back on the bed, hugged the blanket, and finally calmed down.

Then I started learning social etiquette and legal knowledge in the Crazy System, and practicing fighting.

Exhausted after finishing her practice, Qiu Yingying closed her eyes and sighed deeply.

No matter what, life goes on.

All she can do now is rest well and wait to go back to her hometown to bring her parents over.
