Li Cheng woke up the next morning to chaos.
His phone was buzzing like an angry wasp nest — messages, notifications, and dozens of missed calls. He blinked blearily at the screen, still half-asleep.

Li Cheng rubbed his eyes, scrolled down, and froze.A photo was plastered across every news site: him, standing tall in front of a black Rolls-Royce, the faint golden glow of his System Watch on his wrist clearly visible.
"Oh," he muttered, blinking again. "So much for a quiet morning."
The System, ever calm, pinged in his head.

Li Cheng smirked."So I just have to… be famous?" he asked lazily.
[Affirmative. Suggestion: Attend class. In style.]
He chuckled."Attend class… right. Let's make today interesting."
When Li Cheng arrived at Tianhai University, the entire campus was buzzing. Students whispered, pointed, and even secretly filmed him.
Girls stared, wide-eyed, their voices trembling with disbelief.
"Is that… Li Cheng? The one Su Yue dumped?""Wait, why is he in a luxury car?!""He looks way hotter than before— is that even fair?!"
Li Cheng strolled across the courtyard in a perfectly fitted black jacket, his red hair gleaming under the morning light. Every step radiated confidence — the type that couldn't be faked.
He wasn't even trying to act cool.
He was cool.
Su Yue, meanwhile, was standing near the art building, surrounded by her new "friends." Her expensive outfit, designer bag, and smug smile screamed luxury. But when she saw Li Cheng step out of that car, her expression froze.
"L–Li Cheng?" she stammered. "What… what are you doing here?"
Li Cheng gave her a light smile — the kind that said "you're not worth being angry about anymore."
"Same as you," he said casually. "Just attending class. Oh, and congratulations — your name's trending online."
The crowd's murmurs grew louder.
"She dumped him for money, right?""And now he's richer than her new guy!""Talk about karma!"
Su Yue's face turned pale. "You— you think this is funny?"
Li Cheng shrugged. "Not really. But the System does."

Li Cheng tilted his head, smiled, and said softly, "Su Yue… remember when you said I'd never be worth even your handbag? Well, now I can buy your whole wardrobe and still have change for lunch."
The crowd exploded with laughter.
"Bro just verbally demolished her!""He's built different!""This is better than a drama!"
Su Yue's face went red with embarrassment as she stormed off, her heels clicking like angry daggers.
By lunchtime, the university forums were flooded.

Li Cheng sat under a tree, munching on a sandwich, while the System's cheerful tone echoed in his mind.

"Oh? Finally," Li Cheng murmured. "Let's see what you've got for me, System."
A digital blue screen appeared in front of him.
System Store:[1. Advanced Martial Art: Dragon Pulse Fist – 50,000 Points][2. Luxury Apartment in Tianhai City – 150,000 Points][3. Random Lucky Draw – 10,000 Points]
Li Cheng grinned and tapped "Random Lucky Draw."
[Ding! Congratulations, Host.][You've won: A Mysterious Golden Card – 'God-Level Girlfriend Summon' (Expires in 3 days).]
"…Wait. What?"
He blinked.
"System, explain."
[Simple. Use the card, and one destined female companion will appear within 24 hours.]
Li Cheng coughed, choking on his drink."Are you serious?!"
[Host may choose location for summon. Suggestion: Somewhere dramatic.]
Li Cheng laughed so hard, students turned to look.
"Alright then," he said, leaning back against the tree. "Let's make tomorrow even more interesting."
As the wind rustled the leaves above him, he looked up at the glowing System panel and smiled faintly.
"Let's see what kind of girl fate sends my way."
