In a remote town far outside Lovegod City, a tearful girl of around twenty had just submitted her order.
Her face was haggard. In the dim light, her room was plastered with posters of idol boy groups, but these posters were faded and splotchy, giving them a rather eerie appearance.
She exited the text message, her phone wallpaper displaying a handsome man.
Upon seeing this man, a tear welled up in her listless eyes. She raised her hands and began scratching wildly at the man's face, muttering words like "heartless man, scumbag."
After tossing and turning for a while, she reopened the unexpected text message and murmured, "What am I doing? Maybe this is just some bored guy messing with me. I actually believed it, serves me right for being tricked."
Perhaps exhausted from crying, the girl finally closed her eyes and fell into a deep sleep.
The next day, Ren Yuanhao, refreshed and invigorated, got out of bed early. The employer's order requirements immediately came to mind.
"Clean-cut, preferably a sun-loving, sporty type of guy. Someone who can play ball, make me laugh, dote on me, treat me like I'm a treasure to be cherished and feared to be dropped."
Ren Yuanhao took a deep breath and moved to the mirror.
Just then, he felt a coolness on his head. The reflection in the mirror showed his black hair instantly transforming into layered, choppy strands. His brows were like swords, his eyes like brilliant stars. At first glance, he looked just like the infinitely glorious all-around senior from his university days.
"Judging by these requirements, it's probably a university student with princess syndrome."
"Ding, your car is ready. Please proceed to the meeting location designated by the employer. The journey is long, have a good trip."
Ren Yuanhao drove out of the city. As the sky gradually brightened, revealing lush greenery, he arrived at Guhe Town about an hour later.
Upon reaching his destination, he heard someone shouting curses in front of a somewhat dilapidated ancient building.
"You shameless woman, it's one thing if you're indiscreet yourself, but your daughter, who received the town's scholarship, isn't focusing on her university studies and repaying the community. Instead, she's always chasing after guys, getting used and then discarded. She actually dropped out of school in a fit of rage. Is this how you raise your daughter?"
Ren Yuanhao got out of the car and, as he approached, saw a middle-aged woman being berated fiercely by a man pointing at her face.
Passersby shook their heads and sighed frequently, but no one dared to step forward.
"What the heck, the employer isn't this middle-aged auntie, is she? Don't mess with me!"
Ren Yuanhao felt a chill down his spine. As he was muttering this, he saw a listless girl rush down from the upper floor.
"Ding, the employer has appeared.
Name: Zhou Lin
Age: 20
Occupation: Student at Tianyi University of Science and Technology, Lovegod City
Relationship history: Unknown"
Upon hearing the system's notification, Ren Yuanhao breathed a sigh of relief.
"It's all my fault! Why are you bullying my mom!?"
Just as Zhou Lin was about to retort, the man pushed her mother aside and raised his hand, intending to slap Zhou Lin across the face!
"Ding, detected that the employer is startled. It's time to step forward and improve the review score."
At that moment, a flash of white light appeared. Ren Yuanhao, dressed in a white shirt, moved with lightning speed in front of Zhou Lin, grabbed the man's descending hand, and squeezed the metacarpal joint with force.
The man let out yelps of pain, cursing, "Your grandma's, you dare to poke the tiger's den!"
Zhou Lin was astonished. Suddenly, she received a text notification: "Didi Dating System warm reminder, your custom boyfriend has arrived. We wish you a pleasant experience."
"Is this all real?" Zhou Lin's eyes were wide with disbelief as she involuntarily looked at the man standing in front of her.
Zhou Lin felt as if she were dreaming. She saw her mother slowly getting up, her hair disheveled, and a trickle of blood at the corner of her mouth, as if she had been slapped.
She bowed her body and said cautiously, "Young man, this has nothing to do with you. Don't get involved in this mess."
"Did you hear that? She's telling you to leave!"
"I'm not deaf, I don't need you, this parrot, squawking here. I'm getting involved in this mess, and I will!" Ren Yuanhao's gaze was sharp, burning into their eyes.
"Enough, you all stop talking. Isn't it just about me going back to school? I promise you!"
Upon hearing Zhou Lin say she would return to school, the man finally calmed his enraged demeanor. Ren Yuanhao then released his grip.
"Don't forget your responsibilities. If anything like this happens again, don't blame us for asking you to leave. Let's go!"
The man, accompanied by two henchmen, strode away and soon disappeared at the end of the narrow alley.
A moment later, while Zhou Lin's mother was getting water, Ren Yuanhao said very gentlemanly, "I am a Didi Dating System service representative, Ren..."
Before he could finish, Zhou Lin cut him off expressionlessly.
"You can go. I don't need it."
