Chapter 1 Current Identity: Simp
Chapter 1 Current Identity: Simp
"Xiaoyu, this is the breakfast from that popular online restaurant you told me you wanted to eat yesterday. I went to queue up early this morning to buy it for you."
Although Xu An was soaked to the bone, he didn't care at all. Instead, he smiled, opened his clothes, and handed the exquisitely packaged breakfast to the woman in front of him.
The woman reached out and took the breakfast, then waved her hand, "Alright, alright, you should go back now. Look at you, what if my company people see you like this?"
After saying that, the woman took the breakfast and walked into the company.
"Xiaoyu is so kind, she was worried about me catching a cold."
Xu An watched her departing figure, his eyes almost welling up with tears of emotion.
[Ding! Current task progress 90%]
A synthesized mechanical voice suddenly rang out...
"Xiaoyu, your boyfriend is so good to you."
My female colleague saw what happened and couldn't help but say something.
Xiaoyu scoffed, "He's not my boyfriend."
"I saw him bring you breakfast every day," the female colleague said, glancing outside. "The rain came suddenly, and when I saw him bringing you breakfast, he was soaked to the bone."
"Oh, Sister Qing, don't worry about him. All he can do is bring me food; he's not good at anything else."
Xiaoyu took Qingjie's arm and said, "Qingjie, I saw online that this place has really delicious breakfast. You should try it later."
"I think he's quite thoughtful," Sister Qing said.
"Tch, what's there to be concerned about? I told him I wanted to eat it, and that's why he went to buy it. If I hadn't told him, he wouldn't have gone to buy it."
There's a saying: "Those who are willing don't need to be taught, while those who are not willing can't be taught. I have to tell them everything before they'll do it."
"Forget it, forget it, I'm not going to talk about him anymore. Just thinking about him annoys me."
Outside the building.
Xu An wiped the rain off his face and excitedly opened the system panel.
[Current Identity: Simp]
[Unique Talent: Eyes that look at dogs with deep affection]
[Identity Declaration: She (He) is different; she (he) simply likes to run at night.]
[Task: Act like a devoted admirer and launch a relentless offensive on one person. (Note: Gender not required)]
Current progress: 90%
[Task Reward: 100 million cash, Succubus Physique.]
[Current remaining "simp gold": 5000 (refreshed weekly)]
"90% done, just a little short. Let's give it our all tonight and try to finish the task."
Xu An smiled and clenched his fist.
The security guard at the entrance couldn't stand it anymore and came over: "Hey bro, wanna have a smoke?"
Xu An waved his hand, "Thank you, I don't smoke."
Seeing this, the security guard put away his cigarettes and said, "Brother, there's something I'm not sure if I should say."
"Go ahead and say it," Xu An replied.
"Brother, even though you don't know me, I've seen you a lot lately. You're pursuing that girl, aren't you?" the security guard said.
"Yes." Xu An nodded, then shook his head: "No, not exactly."
The security guard ignored the second half of his sentence and said bluntly, "I've seen that woman more than once. She's always flirting with other men and often gets into their cars. You can't handle a woman like that."
"Brother, take my advice, cut ties with this kind of woman as soon as possible."
"She's different." Xu An's words shocked the security guard.
"I know who she is; she's different from other girls."
[Ding! Current task progress 91%]
Upon hearing the system notification, Xu An's smile widened even further.
"Brother, you're a good person. I have to go now, I have to leave."
After saying that, Xu An turned around and got on his electric scooter, ignoring the rain.
The security guard watched him walk away with an air of nonchalance and couldn't help but click his tongue in amazement. "Brother, I'm not a good guy, you're the real good guy."
"Go back to Gotham. I'll put in a good word for you with Batman, and I won't hit you anymore."
-
It was just a minor incident, and Xu An didn't pay it any mind.
He hopped on his electric scooter and weaved through the torrential rain.
A month ago, Xu An was a food delivery driver.
Perhaps it was a blessing from heaven that the so-called "system" appeared out of nowhere.
Xu An named it the "Identity System".
"Simp" was his first identity.
Performing the required actions according to the task requirements will increase the task completion rate. When the task progress reaches 100%, he will receive the corresponding reward and his identity will be changed.
Xu An was familiar with the identity of a "simp."
Back in college, he'd tried to lick her before.
After all that effort, all I got in return was the words, "I've always considered you a friend."
Then I saw with my own eyes the girl I liked embrace a man in a BMW.
At that moment, Xu An's world collapsed.
This seems to be a trial that every ordinary boy will go through.
Only by passing this trial and successfully transcending the tribulation can one understand the truth of the world, achieve the supreme path, and live a carefree and joyful life from then on.
Fortunately, Xu An survived this ordeal.
Now, making him act like a sycophant again would be a piece of cake.
That's not a dark history, it's just the road we came from.
Back in his rented room, Xu An took a shower and changed into clean clothes.
He began to think about what would happen that night.
Only nine percent left.
He was already secretly looking forward to the end of the mission and the reward that was about to be received.
"I still have five thousand yuan left in the 'simp' money. Let's go all out and complete the mission in one go," Xu An muttered, stroking his chin.
The "simp gold" (a form of virtual gift) cannot be used on oneself in any way; it can only be used on the person one is simping towards.
He's very familiar with simps.
The essence of a "simp" is licking someone's boots but never getting what they want.
He knew very well what kind of woman Chen Xiaoyu was.
A woman who is vain and constantly weighs the pros and cons would never let a poor guy like Xu An succeed.
Unless Xu An becomes rich or powerful someday.
For the reward, for a million dollars, he would even be willing to let Xu An wash his feet.
......
[Xiaoyu, let's have dinner together tonight. I've reserved a table at Seranxi.]
Chen Xiaoyu glanced at the WeChat message, frowned, and subconsciously wanted to refuse, but when she saw the three words "Selanxi", her eyes lit up.
Seranshi is a well-known high-end restaurant in Jiangdu.
Many socialites like to go there for meals.
"We can't just refuse him all the time; sometimes we have to give him a little treat," Chen Xiaoyu murmured, her fingers rapidly tapping on her phone screen.
"Since you're so sincere, I'll allow you to have dinner with me tonight."
"Great, Xiaoyu, I'll pick you up after get off work."
Upon seeing this message, she frowned. She certainly didn't want to ride on Xu An's dilapidated electric scooter, which was leaking from all sides.
"Fine, I'll go there myself after get off work. You get ready to welcome me over there."
Okay, Xiaoyu.
Seeing that Xu An agreed so quickly, Chen Xiaoyu revealed a smug smile.
She could already imagine that Xu An must be very excited right now.
The image of him sticking out his tongue, like a lapdog, flashed into my mind.
