Summer, First Hospital.

Inside one of the most expensive VVIP rooms, the summer heat outside seemed to be blocked by a layer of cool air. The humming sound coming from the air conditioner filled the spacious room, making anyone who heard it feel sleepy.

Leaning against the headboard of the large bed, a woman in her early twenties was busy pressing the keys on her laptop keyboard and clicking her mouse.

Click! Click!

Tap! Tap! Tap!

As the sounds of clicking and tapping mixed with the low hum of the air conditioner, time passed by peacefully.

Ten minutes later, the corners of the woman’s lips slowly curved upward.

"Finally... I finally completed the game today."

Looking away from the laptop screen, she turned toward the glass windows. Seeing the bright sky outside, the happiness she felt after completing her favorite game slowly dissipated.

While she was staring at the blue sky absentmindedly, the door suddenly burst open.

Bang!

Startled by the sudden noise, the woman came back to her senses. Before she could see who had so rudely barged into her room, a thunderous voice filled her ears.

"Liu Yun! Have you lost your mind?!"

Facing her paternal uncle’s anger, Liu Yun calmly said, "Paternal Uncle, stop shouting. You give me a headache."

Seeing that she showed no reaction to his anger, Liu Han became even angrier. Kicking the stool beside the bed, he furiously pointed at Liu Yun’s nose.

"Liu Yun! How dare you sell the company without my permission?! Do you think I’m already dead?!" Liu Han asked through gritted teeth.

Looking at her paternal uncle’s flushed face and the trembling fat below his chin, disdain flickered across Liu Yun’s eyes.

After a brief moment of silence, she smiled faintly and asked, "Why can’t I do that? The company was left to me by my parents. It’s mine. Whether I sell it or not has nothing to do with you, Paternal Uncle."

When Liu Han heard this, he was so furious that he almost fainted.

Seeing his body sway and that he almost fell backward, his wife hurriedly supported him and exclaimed in horror, "Husband! What’s happening to you?"

While Liu Han’s wife was worryingly checking on him, his son rushed toward the bed and grabbed Liu Yun by the collar.

Staring at Liu Yun with vicious eyes, he said threateningly, "Bitch! Hand over the money! Otherwise, I will make you regret ever being born into this world."

Liu Yun calmly met her elder cousin’s gaze, but she said nothing.

After a long moment of silent confrontation between them, her elder cousin suddenly flung her backward.

Thud!

Liu Yun fell heavily onto the bed, and her head slammed against the headboard, causing her to let out a muffled groan.

"Ugh!"

In an instant, her pale face turned even paler. Sensing the metallic sweetness rising in her throat, Liu Yun forcefully swallowed it back.

"Cough! Cough! Cough!"

While she coughed and endured the pain spreading throughout her body, Liu Han had already composed himself.

Glaring at the weak Liu Yun, he coldly ordered, "Go and call the lawyer. She must sign the document today!"

Hearing this, his son smirked and replied, "Yes, Father."

While her elder cousin went out to call the lawyer, Liu Han and his wife also left the VVIP room to make a few phone calls.

Left alone in the spacious room, Liu Yun’s eyes darkened as she clenched the bedsheet so tightly that her fingers turned white. Realizing that she didn’t have much time left, she made a quick decision.

Using her last remaining strength, she pushed herself up and reached for her laptop and mouse.

Glancing at the closed door, she waited for a few seconds. After making sure that her paternal uncle wouldn’t be back anytime soon, her body relaxed slightly.

Knowing that this would be her last opportunity to have her revenge, Liu Yun’s eyes hardened. Without wasting another second, she grabbed her mouse and clicked on the game’s interface.

Staring at the top-up page, a cold smile slowly bloomed across her pale lips.

’Rather than leaving the money to those white-eyed wolves, I’d rather give it to this game’s developer!’

Making up her mind, Liu Yun quickly entered her bank card information and bought every available in-game value package.

Seeing that there were still more than fifty million yuan left in her bank account, she decisively used all of it to top up the game.

The moment she pressed the "Confirm" button, a notification panel appeared on the laptop screen.

Ding!

[Thank you for your generous purchase, Player Liu Yun. The Celestial Stones and the top-up bonus will be credited to your account shortly. Happy gaming!]

Reading the successful top-up notification, Liu Yun chuckled victoriously.

"He he he—"

Just as her body relaxed slightly, the metallic sweetness surged up again. This time, she couldn’t hold it back and coughed up mouthful after mouthful of blood.

"Cough! Cough! Cough!"

As blood stained the white bedsheet, Liu Yun’s body went limp.

Thud.

Sensing her strength slowly fading away, she knew that her time to leave this world had come.

Looking at the bright blue sky through the glass windows, a regretful smile appeared on Liu Yun’s pale lips.

’What a pity... Today is such a beautiful day for another round of clearing the dungeons...’

As her mind grew duller, the pain throughout her body intensified, slowly eating away at her remaining life force.

After a few seconds that felt like forever, Liu Yun finally closed her eyes.

’Father... Mother... I’m coming to accompany you now...’

Before her mind fell into the darkness, there was only one regret in her heart.

In twenty-two years of life, Liu Yun had spent most of it in hospital rooms. She had never traveled, never fallen in love, and never watched the sunrise from a mountaintop.

She was never getting the chance to truly live for herself.

Filled with regret, Liu Yun softly made her last wish.

’If there is another life, I will live only for myself...’

Twenty minutes later, the door to the VVIP room opened again.

Walking through the doorway, Liu Han looked toward the bed and froze at the sight of the blood-soaked bedsheet. After two seconds of shock, he came back to his senses and urgently shouted, "Doctor! Call the Doctor!"

While the VVIP room fell into chaos, Liu Yun felt her body floating in a warm bubble. She couldn’t open her eyes or speak, but she knew that she had already died.

Just when she thought she would spend eternity like this, a familiar notification sound echoed through her dull consciousness, followed by a cold mechanical voice.

Ding!

[The World Restoration System is at your service. Player, would you like to bind with the System?]

As a gamer, Liu Yun had played more than a dozen games in her short life. Hearing the familiar prompt, she subconsciously replied in her mind, ’Yes.’

Ding!

[Binding in progress.]

Ding!

[Binding successful. The player will be teleported to the new world in 10... 9... 8... 0.]

Ding!

[Teleporting now.]

The moment the mechanical voice fell silent, Liu Yun’s consciousness finally sank into darkness.
