Reborn As a System
Chapter 39
Su Rui didn't know why he had such an ability. It was as if he woke up after a nap and realized that he could turn back time.
As long as he wanted to, he could go back to the original point in time. At first, he thought that he was dreaming, but after many experiments, he realized that it wasn't a dream.
At first, he thought that this thing was amazing and suitable for him.
Since he was young, his personality was a little strange. He had an extraordinary obsession with the things around him. He wanted everything to be perfect and go according to his wishes. If there was even the slightest flaw, his heart would grumble and he would feel very uncomfortable. He couldn't wait to do it again and do it well.
This problem was actually very good when it came to important matters. When he was in school, he had always been first. Not only was he first in the class, but he wasn't even first in the grade. He wanted to be first in the city.
If it weren't for the fact that the first in the province and the first in the country couldn't be ranked, he would have pursued even higher.
Fortunately, he had a good brain and it wasn't difficult for him to learn. Otherwise, he would have been driven to death.
When he was working, he naturally had to be good at everything. Everything had to be perfect. It was also because of his meticulous personality that Father Su handed over the family business to him early on and traveled the world with Mother Su.
Having such a son, other than feeling annoyed occasionally, was very worry-free.
If there was one thing that Su Rui didn't want to change in his life, it would be becoming good friends with Shi Qing.
Shi Qing's personality was simply the opposite of his. He didn't want to be first in everything. Everything was easy to talk about. He loved to laugh and was lively and likable. It was rare for him to go down a dead end because he could help himself think through everything. He was so optimistic that it made others envious.
Of course, such a carefree personality caused him to be careless from time to time.
There were no big mistakes, but there were many small mistakes. For example, he forgot to bring his homework to school, forgot to bring his pencil, eraser, textbook … He was so careless that Su Rui couldn't wait to clean up after him from beginning to end. But Su Rui was so anxious that Shi Qing just scratched his head, chuckled, and turned away.
This made Su Rui almost die of anger.
Logically speaking, these two people couldn't be friends, but they still became good friends.
Su Rui was really too strange. Only Shi Qing could tolerate her. If Shi Qing ignored him, he would really have no friends.
For a perfectionist, he couldn't tolerate not having a friend, so he had to have one. Shi Qing really treated him as a friend, so no matter how much he couldn't stand Shi Qing's little habit, he had to endure it for the sake of his friend.
Qin Mo wouldn't tolerate Su Rui's weird temper, but Qin Mo was a perfectionist in his heart. He wouldn't touch Su Rui's nitpicking at all.
He was born with high self-esteem. He was the only person that Su Rui could see.
And because they were both Shi Qing's good friends, they naturally got together.
Su Rui was quite satisfied with this. It was enough to have two friends at once. It was very much in line with the requirements of making friends that he had set for himself.
Just like that, the three of them stumbled along the way. Their relationship grew deeper and deeper, and they became the most important of friends.
Now that Su Rui had something that could turn back time, he was very satisfied.
With this, he would be able to deal with Shi Qing perfectly. He wouldn't have to worry about him being careless.
This way, he would have friends, and he wouldn't be angry from time to time. It couldn't be more beautiful.
But he never thought that Shi Qing would be able to cause so much trouble … It made him rewind time twenty-one times in one day …
The people around him couldn't feel the rewind time. It just happened step by step. But Su Rui had memories of it every time. Although it had only been forty minutes in reality, he had been tormenting himself for twenty-four hours.
He was mentally exhausted. Now that he was in the car, he finally felt more at ease. He closed his eyes, thinking that he would sleep for as long as he could.
But he didn't expect that this would happen when he slept.
He was awakened by Shi Qing's scream. When he opened his eyes, he saw the huge front of the car. It was about to break through the car window and charge straight in.
With this speed and this impact, they would definitely be smashed to pieces!
Su Rui couldn't imagine that he could still see and react in such a situation.
He quickly clasped the small white dot on his fingernail. He wanted to read the flash drive. He wanted to turn back time!
His two most important friends were sitting here. No matter what, he couldn't let them die!
He pressed it!
At the last moment!
He pressed it!
However, time did not flow backward as he wished. He looked at the scene in front of him in surprise. Everything was still. The terrifying impact stopped at this moment. He could even see the glass shards that were frozen in the air, as well as some dust powder that was usually invisible to the naked eye.
This world … was still!
Su Rui recovered from his shock. He didn't understand why time didn't turn back?
Why didn't time turn back at the most critical moment?
He tried to move his body, but he couldn't move at all. He could only watch helplessly.
At this moment, a cold and rigid voice sounded, "This involves the reversal of life. The host's mental strength is insufficient. Only two lives can be reversed. Please make a choice."
Su Rui was dumbfounded.
He had repeated this sentence several times in his mind, and he knew what it meant.
Insufficient mental strength … Yes, he had used it twenty-one times. He hadn't slept for twenty-four hours. He was indeed exhausted.
Su Rui never thought that because of his nitpicking, he would lose his life here.
Two lives … Even if they didn't consider the outsiders, there were still three of them.
Shi Qing, Qin Mo … and him.
Only two people could survive?
The scene in front of him was a natural moat between life and death. Fear and panic were like poisonous snakes. They coiled around his heart in an instant, tightly strangling his heart. He couldn't breathe.
He only had two friends in his life. They were the only two people who could accept him. How could he give them up?
Moreover, they loved each other. And …
If Qin Mo died, Shi Qing would be in despair.
If Shi Qing died … Impossible. He couldn't give up on the first person who reached out to him.
Maybe … he could die …
At this moment, Shi Qing was almost nervous to death!
Time froze, but he was still conscious. He also heard the sound of the life saving disk. He also knew that Su Rui didn't have enough mental strength. He couldn't let everyone live. He had to make a choice.
No one expected that using the life saving disk would require mental strength. Su Rui had used it so many times before and had already exhausted it … Shi Qing couldn't help but feel a little regretful. It was all his fault. He kept tormenting Su Rui and provoked him to use it continuously.
This time, he had a taste of his own medicine.
Although he couldn't move or speak, Shi Qing was still a system. He had earned a lot of coins from the last mission. At this moment, he hurriedly sent a message to Qin Mo. "What should we do?"
Qin Mo could choose to reply to his message. Then, Shi Qing received a message. "I can use my strength. When the still enchantment is removed, I will stop the impact of the truck.
Then, you can quickly take back the life saving disk and activate the time reversal. "
When he heard Qin Mo's words, Shi Qing immediately calmed down. This was great. Qin Mo had certain restrictions when he came to this world. For example, he couldn't use some of the spells in the cultivation world. However, the strength strengthening of the body in the space still existed.
With his strength, he should be able to stop the truck. Although it was shocking, as long as he got the life saving disk and quickly started to load it, returning to the previous save disk, he could make everyone forget what happened.
Now, he just had to wait for Su Rui to make a choice. Who exactly would he save?
Although he knew that they wouldn't die, and Shi Qing and Su Rui hadn't known each other for a long time, he was still a little nervous. He didn't know what choice Su Rui would make.
Time passed second by second. It might have only been a few seconds, but it might have stopped for a long time.
Su Rui finally made a choice. He said it to the life saving disk, but Shi Qing and Qin Mo heard it because of the mission.
"Shi Qing and Qin Mo, let them live."
Her voice was calm, but the words she said determined life and death.
Shi Qing's heart surged, but he didn't have time to feel anything. The still enchantment in front of him had been removed!
There was no time to lose. He was determined not to let time reverse. The most important second was now!
Qin Mo had already rushed forward and stopped the truck that was charging towards them. Shi Qing also rushed towards Su Rui in a flash, aiming at the fingernail of his left index finger.
Yes!
He finally saw the still time just now.
The life saving disk was on the fingernail of Su Rui's left index finger. It was a small white dot that was hard to find.
The moment he held the small dot, Shi Qing immediately pressed it down. He didn't have time to look at it and randomly chose a save disk.
Shi Qing's mental strength was extremely strong. In an instant, it was transmitted to the life saving disk through Su Rui. The original selective loading because of the lack of mental strength was changed, and the world reversed together!
After the familiar dizziness, Shi Qing finally calmed down. It seemed that it was a success.
Then, he felt a familiar burning chest without any clothes on.
Shi Qing's mind was blank for a while. Then, he suddenly reacted.
… He returned to the beginning, hugging Qin Mo again …
But at this moment, he didn't have time to think too much. His heart was full of the joy of surviving a disaster.
At the same time, he was touched.
He was touched by Su Rui.
Not everyone had the courage to leave the chance of survival to someone else when they were facing death.
Shi Qing asked himself honestly, would he be afraid?
At this moment, the door was pushed open with a bang.
The young man was very delicate. His hair was black and his skin was white. His casual clothes were comfortable and pleasing to the eye.
At this moment, he looked at the two people on the bed. His face quickly turned red and his mouth opened wide. He was very surprised. "You … You … You …"
You stuttered for a long time, but he didn't say the next sentence.
Then, he slammed the door and left.
Shi Qing looked at him in a daze. Then, his eyes curved into a smile. It was exactly the same as the first time. Su Rui had forgotten everything.
Qin Mo was behind him. He raised his finger and saw the small white dot on it. The life saving disk was already in Shi Qing's hand.
Shi Qing sighed. "Su Rui is very good, but I took away his things."
Qin Mo said slowly, "Taking it away will only benefit him."
