"Ning Xingchen, if you don't meet the sales target next month, you're out of this company. We don't harbor slackers and useless people here."

Just reprimanded by his manager, Ning Xingchen walked out of the office with his head down. The chilly night breeze brushed against his face, and a sense of desolation washed over him. For several months, his sales performance had been at the bottom of the department. With a meager salary of just over a thousand yuan, he could barely afford rent. He was on the verge of homelessness.

Even his girlfriend of two years had left him at this time of desperation. Ning Xingchen had lost confidence in the future, feeling that his life was bleak and hopeless.

Walking by the quiet, deserted lake in the park, Ning Xingchen found himself contemplating suicide.

"Mom, Dad, three years ago, you left me. It's all because your son couldn't afford the medical expenses for you. Now, I'm almost thirty, still without any achievements. I just hope to reincarnate into a wealthy family and enjoy endless prosperity and luxury," Ning Xingchen sighed softly, gazing at the calm, mirror-like surface of the lake.

Just as Ning Xingchen's foot was about to step into the water, a muffled thunderous sound startled him, causing him to quickly retract his leg.

"D*mn it, it's too hot in the summer. I just wanted to take a cold bath," Ning Xingchen muttered to himself. He didn't actually intend to commit suicide. Their home had no running water, so he planned to take a bath on his way back, trying to save money wherever possible, given his tight financial situation.

As soon as Ning Xingchen finished complaining, he let out a scream as a purple lightning bolt from the sky struck him directly. He blacked out instantly.

...

A week later, Ning Xingchen opened his eyes to find himself lying in his rented room. What was terrifying was that this room was exactly as Ning Xingchen remembered it from three years ago. He recalled having disposed of the bedsheet he was lying on long ago.

As Ning Xingchen sat there in shock and disbelief, a sweet, coquettish voice sounded in his ears.

"Ding, activating the Most Badass Tycoon System."

This sentence was clearly imprinted in Ning Xingchen's mind, as if it were a telepathic communication. Ning Xingchen could hardly believe his ears, thinking he might be hallucinating.

Subsequently, a progress bar appeared in Ning Xingchen's mind.

"1%... 5%... 30%..."

"Ding, the Most Badass Tycoon System has been successfully bound to the host. Through this system, the host will become the wealthiest tycoon in the entire universe. Friendly reminder: once bound, this system cannot be unbound or transferred. All rights reserved by Galaxy Corporation."

"Holy sh*t, a system? Who are you? Who's talking?" Ning Xingchen was astonished, utterly at a loss for words.

"Hello, host. This system will help you become the richest tycoon in the entire universe. By spending money continuously, you will earn Tycoon Points. After accumulating a certain amount of Tycoon Points, you can participate in the lottery."

Instantly, some introductions about the Most Badass Tycoon System's functions flooded into Ning Xingchen's mind. In just a few minutes, Ning Xingchen had a general understanding.

However, shortly after, Ning Xingchen gave a bitter smile. Though this Tycoon System sounded impressive, the key was that he had no money. Looking at his bank balance of less than two hundred yuan, he felt even more destitute than a beggar.

"Please don't worry, host. As the most badass existence in the entire universe, how could this system let you run out of money? By binding to this system, you will receive a novice gift package, including a Million Realms Bank card with a deposit of one hundred billion. You can use it in any bank, in any time and space," the system assured Ning Xingchen.

"One hundred billion?" Hearing this astronomical figure, Ning Xingchen was dumbfounded. With so much money, he couldn't possibly spend it all in a lifetime. How many times could he indulge in pleasures with that?

Holding this prestigious Million Realms Bank card in his hand, Ning Xingchen still couldn't believe it. He decided to go to the bank to confirm whether there was really one hundred billion inside.

As he was getting dressed, Ning Xingchen glanced at the calendar on the wall, astonished speechless.

Today was actually March twenty-fourth, three years ago. Confirming the date on his phone, Ning Xingchen ran out the door as if he were going mad.

Ning Xingchen couldn't believe that he had been reborn three years ago, and in a week, his mother would pass away.

Ning Xingchen was determined to prevent the tragedy of losing his loved ones. His mother had suffered from severe kidney disease. Although a kidney donor was found, they couldn't afford the medical expenses. Relatives and friends had borrowed all they could, and Ning Xingchen could only watch helplessly as his mother was wheeled into the morgue.

Now that he had such a powerful system and one hundred billion, Ning Xingchen couldn't allow his parents to die from illness, leaving him alone.

After taking a taxi, Ning Xingchen went straight to Rod Hospital, a hospital with extremely high medical standards, and correspondingly high treatment costs.

Upon entering the hospital, Ning Xingchen didn't linger. He went straight to the payment counter, inserted the Million Realms Bank card into the slot, and said, "For Su Juan's family, pay the hospitalization and surgery fees."

The beautiful staff member at the counter was momentarily stunned. Wasn't this the young man who had pleaded desperately in the hospital director's office a few days ago?

Ning Xingchen's shabby appearance made her doubt whether he had any money in his card. However, out of professional courtesy, she swiped the card. After Ning Xingchen entered the password, the backend system surprisingly showed that the transaction was successful.

Ning Xingchen also realized that the Most Badass Tycoon System and the Million Realms Bank card were all real.

Before she could express her surprise, she hastily handed the receipt to Ning Xingchen and said, "Sir, please take the receipt."

Ning Xingchen glanced at the receipt, which showed an amount of over four hundred thousand. Money was indeed a good thing. Not only could it save lives, but it could also make you live with dignity. At this moment, the attitude of the beautiful staff member towards him had completely changed from before. She was respectful and polite.

"Excuse me, where is the attending physician for my mother's surgery? Which office is it on the sixth floor?" Ning Xingchen asked.

"Sir, it's the second office on the left after turning left on the sixth floor."

"Your name is Zhang Xue?" Ning Xingchen glanced at her name tag.

"Yes," Zhang Xue smiled and nodded.

"Do you have time tonight? We can get to know each other better," Ning Xingchen's mouth curved into a mischievous smile as he glanced at her chest, appreciating her well-proportioned figure. "Maybe we can go out for dinner tonight, to the most expensive Western restaurant in the entire East Sea. You can pick."

"Ah?" Zhang Xue couldn't help but pause, immediately understanding Ning Xingchen's intentions.

"Tonight, we can have dinner together at the most expensive Western restaurant in the entire East Sea. You can pick," Ning Xingchen repeated, flashing a charming smile, before turning and leaving. With money, a man's confidence could multiply countless times.
