Chapter 4 He's a Good-Looking Man

The next day, Yuri woke up in a warm quilt. She looked around in a daze. Someone pushed the door open and walked in. What came into Yuri's view was the handsome face from last night. Chris narrowed his eyes slightly. He was wearing casual clothes with his hands in his pockets and his tone was not very good. "You're finally awake. Get up and go home." "You... are my neighbor?" Yuri was a little confused. She remembered that she had met her neighbor last night. Did he bring her back out of kindness? "Yes, you have a fever. Go back and have a good rest." After saying that, Chris pointed to the medicine on the bedside table and said, "Take this medicine back and take it." Only God knew how much of a mental breakdown he had last night. This girl looked small, but in fact, she was not light in weight. Carrying her to his second floor was simply the worst decision he had ever made. Not only that, but his clothes were also wet, which made him very uncomfortable. "Thank you!" Yuri's voice was still a little hoarse. She slowly lifted the quilt, only to suddenly realize that she was not wearing the clothes from last night. Yuri was shocked. Could it be that the neighbor in front of her changed her clothes? Yuri's pupils constricted slightly as she looked up at Chris in horror. "I asked an auntie to change your clothes." As if noticing Yuri's shock, Chris explained grumpily. Initially, he wanted to find a place to hide from those troublemakers, but he didn't expect to meet such a dumb neighbor. He hated trouble the most. Last night, helping her was already his limit. Now he just wanted to send her back. "Thank you!" Yuri's tone became even more sincere. He was a very good-looking person. "You're welcome. I have asked someone to change your lock and this is the key. Take it home." Chris handed a bunch of keys to Yuri, although it wasn't good for him to change the lock without her permission. But the girl was in a daze because of the fever. If he didn't help her, would he let her live in his house all the time? "Thank you so much. I'll repay you!" A trace of warmth flashed across Yuri's heart. She had never thought that after her father had passed away, someone else would help her. The first goodwill she received came from an unfamiliar neighbor. "No need to repay me." Chris helped Yuri carry her luggage to the courtyard next door and quickly returned home. He heaved a sigh of relief that he had finally gotten rid of this trouble. However, she didn't know that what she had left for Yuri at this time was still a good image that he was willing to help others. Yuri was still a little dizzy. She opened the door and entered the familiar room. Her life in the Johnson Family's home was not very happy. Sometimes, she would come here to clean up the room in a daze, so there was no dust in the room. Because she had a headache, she slowly finished the breakfast given by her neighbor and fell asleep on the bed that she hadn't slept on for a long time. When Yuri woke up again, it was already noon. The sun was shining brightly outside, indicating her new start. "Beep, Master, your body has recovered. Do you wish to bind it to the Study System?" "What?" Yuri had recovered from the cold and her mind was clear. She suddenly remembered the electronic voice that had appeared last night, and her tone was a little confused. "What is the Study System?" "A system that can assist the Master in learning all kinds of skills." "Why did you choose me? What price do I have to pay?" Yuri, who had known since she was a child that there would be no free lunch in the world, asked a very realistic question. She never believed that she would be so lucky. "After getting the system, you need to pass down 18 skills to your descendants. Otherwise, the system will take back everything you have learned." Yuri was confused. "This is a transaction. The system will give you sufficient time and resources. As for you, you will need to help with the system's inherited skills." Yuri was lost in thought. It sounded good, but she didn't know if there would be other traps waiting for her. She was lucky before she was ten, but after that, she no longer believed in luck, and she didn't dare to hold any hope at all. "Does Master want to bind it?" The electronic voice was a little noisy. Yuri compressed her lips in a dilemma. If she had been a little better, she wouldn't have ended up like this. But... she was afraid that there would be consequences that she could not bear. "Don't worry, Master. This is a deal with no conditions." "Do you want to be abandoned again? Or don't you hate being called a burden?" "Binding with the system, you can reach the peak of counterattack!" …… Yuri thought that the system was a little noisy, but she had to admit that she was tempted. "Okay, I'll tie it up!" In fact, she had nothing to worry about in this world, and there was nothing she could lose. If having this system could make her more confident, she was willing to do so! "The binding is successful!"
