Chapter 2 - ch 003 The daughter they left behind(3)

The Chu family had always kept a secret from the outside world - they had a child who was left to roam outside. Nobody knew why they had given her away and ignored her for eighteen long years. Even those who helped Chu Ci investigate her life experiences were unable to find the reason behind it. When Chu Han, who came to pick up his sister, arrived, he did not know the reason either. Before coming to pick up Chu Ci, Chu Han had heard a theory that his sister was not his father's child, but was his mother's love child, which was why his family did not like her so much. However, upon meeting his sister, he saw that she looked exactly like his grandmother, which proved his previous theory wrong.

 "Okay, I agree." After only thinking for a few seconds, Chu Ci agreed to Chu Han's proposal and agreed very readily.

"Then you have to come with me now",

Chu Han did not want to stay in the slum for a long time. If somebody was willing to pick Chu Ci up, it wouldn't be his turn.

 "Wait, I'm going to pack my things."

 "You don't have to take the things you have here anymore. They're worthless. I'll buy you new ones when we reach home." Chu Han couldn't hide his disgust in his tone.

 The Chu family has more wealth than she could have imagined.

 They do not lack such a thing.

 Chu Ci ignored him, closed the door, and started packing her things.

 She pulled out a titanium alloy suitcase and packed a bunch of sophisticated electronic equipment into it. In addition, she packed her daily clothes and dug out a bunch of jewellery from a dilapidated cabinet and stuffed it into the suitcase.

 Any of these things were worth millions.

 On the day Chu Ci turned sixteen, she got into a car accident and died on the spot.

 However, she was resurrected because she was bound to a merit system. This system could extend the host's life, but the prerequisite was that the host must do good deeds and accumulate merit. The corresponding lifespan was exchanged based on the merits earned. However, earning merit points was a difficult task.

A donation of 10 million could be exchanged for 10 points of merit, which was equivalent to five days of life.

 It would be fine if that was all. Chu Ci had enough money and was making money faster than his lifespan. There should be no problem in ensuring that she would be able to live for a long time.

 But this unfortunate system requires that Chu Ci cannot always choose to donate, otherwise the merit points given by the system will become less and less.

She had to do various good deeds, spend money on people who needed it, attend various charity events, subsidize poor students, and build hope projects. Moreover, the system stipulated that spending money on good people would increase her merit points, but there is a limit on how much they spend on themselves. Exceeding the limit is considered extravagant and wasteful, and your merit points will be deducted.

 Chu Ci spends millions and tens of millions without batting an eyelid when spending money on others.

 But when spending money for herself, she is picky and fussy. As a result, many people mistakenly think that Chu Ci was extremely poor.

 No, that's what the Chu family who just came to pick her up thought.

 Chu Ci asked why the system was so cheating.

 The system explained that because her ability to make money was too strong, the system determined that the merit value was not based on social value, but on the price paid by the corresponding host.

 So when the Chu family came to pick her up, Chu Ci agreed because there was a big advantage in living in the Chu family. She didn't have to spend her money on herself and didn't have to worry about whether she would violate the rules.

 However, the system is not without its benefits. It comes with many skills for Chu Ci, and there are many magical things in the exchange pool of the system. But Chu Ci currently does not have any extra merit points to redeem these things.

The system reminded Chu Ci: [The system prompts that the Chu family situation is complicated and many difficult situations may arise.]

 "I know but I won't die, and it will help me solve the problem of food and accommodation."

 With the merit system, Chu Ci's life was determined only by the balance of her merit points, and even if her body was fatally injured, the system would help her with the automatic repair function.

 So even if the Chu family is like a notorious bandit's den and, full of conspiracies, it will not pose a threat to Chu Ci's life.
