This wasn't wish fulfillment.
This was pressure.
He wasn't in control. He wasn't some cool MC with a cold glare and a tragic backstory. He was just… Lu Sheng. A guy who wanted to sleep, eat snacks, and binge brainrot stories until the world forgot he existed.

He clenched his fists.
"…Why does this feel nothing like the webnovels?"
No answer. The System stayed quiet.

"Or I am not trying to live it, I am trying to read it. Is that why? Argh! What the fuck am I talking about? This is so confusing!"
He stood up. "Okay fine, you cursed System!"
System still didn't reply.
