Lying on the bed in the bedroom, drawing the sheer curtains closed to block out people but not light, then lying quietly on the bed, closing her eyes.
She thought to herself:
'Time to start tutoring.'
A white light appeared in her mind, and Liu Chen was once again back in this familiar classroom.
Professor He Long greeted her, holding a book as he walked into the classroom. He saw Liu Chen sitting in the front row, his gaze lingering for a second on her thinning cheeks. Then, he took out a nutritional supplement from his pocket and placed it on her desk as he passed by.
Then, as if nothing had happened, he walked to the podium:
"Ahem, I heard you were sick a few days ago and couldn't come to class. Liu Chen, while studying, you must also take care of your health. Studying is something that requires perseverance, a lifelong goal. That nutritional fluid is a good thing, it can restore brain power."
Liu Chen held the red plastic tube in her hand:
"Teacher, thank you. I will continue to work hard!"
After speaking, she tore open the plastic tube, held it with both hands slightly above her mouth, and poured the slightly bitter water inside into her mouth.
'Water.'
With a thought, a bottle of Yibao appeared on the desk. Liu Chen quickly unscrewed the cap and tilted her head back, pouring the water into her mouth.
He Long, standing on the podium, saw this and said nothing, merely slowing his lecture pace slightly. After Liu Chen finished drinking, he immediately resumed his normal pace.
After two hours of class, Liu Chen noticed something. The pace of the lecture today...
Seemed to have accelerated?
Liu Chen, who had been lying down with a headache for several days, felt the accelerated pace of the lecture and hesitated.
After He Long announced the end of class, she couldn't help but raise her hand to ask:
"Teacher, isn't our class progress a bit too fast? I'm worried..."
Before she could finish her sentence, He Long pointed a finger at the empty supplement bag still on Liu Chen's desk.
"You have this, don't worry."
With that, before Liu Chen could say more, He Long hurried out of the classroom. Liu Chen had once tried to investigate where these teachers went after leaving the classroom, but every time she opened the classroom door, she saw nothing but a vast expanse of white.
And whenever she saw this white expanse, her sixth sense would go wild, giving Liu Chen a ten-second heart attack experience.
Therefore, Liu Chen had never dared to step out of this tutoring classroom, fearing she would be trapped inside and unable to leave.
This time, as usual, a few minutes after Teacher He Long left, the teacher for the next class arrived. Liu Chen quickly sat down obediently, waiting for the lesson to begin. Then, a bag appeared on her desk.
The same kind of supplement as Teacher He Long's!
"I heard you got sick from attending class. This is nutritional fluid, try it."
As soon as she finished speaking, the female teacher saw the already-eaten nutritional fluid bag on Liu Chen's desk and immediately smiled.
"It seems another teacher has already given you some. But that's okay, eating more of this is beneficial. Try it, mine is a more expensive peach flavor."
Hearing this, Liu Chen no longer hesitated. She directly tore open the packaging and tilted her head back, pouring it into her mouth. Honestly, the peach flavor was quite authentic. Liu Chen felt as if she wasn't drinking nutritional fluid, but a fresh peach.
Liu Chen had initially thought that giving out nutritional fluid was a casual gesture from the teachers. However, the next five teachers each brought a tube of nutritional fluid. Liu Chen also got a sense of the teachers' flavor preferences.
Some liked caramel, some liked watermelon, and some liked plain.
After fourteen hours of tutoring, Liu Chen felt absolutely no fatigue this time, and even felt like she could tutor for another fourteen hours.
Before Liu Chen could voice this thought, the fourteen hours of tutoring ended, and she was directly kicked out of the tutoring classroom.
Opening her eyes, the room was pitch black. After lying down for a while, Liu Chen turned and pressed the switch by the bed. The room was quickly illuminated by the warm light of the crystal chandelier.
"No wonder it's so dark. Who closed the curtains for me?"
She had clearly only closed the blinds before sleeping. The thought of someone entering her room while she was asleep and presumptuously closing the curtains made Liu Chen inexplicably annoyed.
"Next time I sleep, I'll definitely lock the door."
After saying this, Liu Chen took out her phone. As soon as she unlocked it, she heard the system voice, which she hadn't heard in a long time, appear in her mind.
'Detected that the host was injured due to prize distribution. The headquarters has decided to offer compensation and issue a compensation gift package, which has been placed in the system backpack. Please check.'
Compensation gift package?
Hearing these five words, Liu Chen's face immediately broke into a smile.
"Gift package, hmm, I'll wash my hands before opening it."
Liu Chen said, got out of bed, pulled open the curtains, adjusted the angle of the blinds, and glanced at the traffic below the building. The red taillights illuminated the entire congested road.
From Liu Chen's angle, she could see the reason for the traffic jam.
Looking ahead, a truck had driven onto the green belt, its body and rear occupying two main lanes. Thus, the traffic flow in the four lanes suddenly found only two lanes available halfway.
Those who didn't change lanes in advance, or those who were on the smooth-flowing lanes and were cut off, and then caused a car accident due to cutting in, resulted in a four-lane road being jammed like a sausage, section by section.
Liu Chen released her hand from the blinds, and they immediately covered the view outside.
She got up, walked into the bathroom, and washed her hands thoroughly with hand sanitizer for a minute. She rubbed them back and forth, then rinsed off the remaining foam with flowing water, and dried them with the hand towel drawn from the system.
Her hands were immediately clean and fragrant.
She walked out of the bathroom, sat down at the desk, placed her hands on the table, and took a deep breath.
'Open the compensation gift package.'
Unlike the usual gaudy and dazzling special effects, this gift package was exceptionally plain. Upon opening, it quietly hovered in the air in front of Liu Chen's eyes.
Liu Chen squinted, bringing the pile of items that looked like coupons closer. The stack of papers then slowly floated onto the desk in front of Liu Chen.
A thick stack, Liu Chen estimated a few dozen sheets.
Up close, she could clearly see the words on the coupons.
Specified Range Draw Ticket, Advanced Version.
Liu Chen found the name of this coupon somewhat familiar. With a thought, the remaining specified range draw tickets in her system backpack floated before her.
Liu Chen looked, and the colors of the two types of tickets were different. The ten specified range tickets she received as rewards for D-level missions were white, while the specified range tickets she was being compensated with now were red.
Looking closer, she saw a line of very small print under the original white coupons.
Basic Version.
Liu Chen's gaze shifted back to the advanced version in front of her, and the smile on her face couldn't be contained.
