Buying a Marinated Egg for the Girl, I Have a Shock & Admiration System

share time: 2025-11-09 06:03:30

Lin Xiaoman, a 30-something corporate slave, is a regular at "Yunxiang Pavilion," a marinated food stall. She always sends an extra 2 yuan to A Yun, the stall owner's sister, as a "marinated egg fee"—to repay A Yun for always saving the last hot marinated egg for her after late-night overtime. One day, when she protects A Yun from a drunk troublemaker, she accidentally activates the "Shock & Admiration System": every time she evokes shock or admiration from others, she gets rewards like bonus money or skill points. But the system's first "mandatory task" is to make A Yun feel "level 10 shock" towards her! Lin Xiaoman, who usually can't even squeeze onto the subway after overtime, is forced to enter a "contrast开挂 mode": lifting the stall's stainless steel bucket with one hand, using self-taught legal knowledge to help A Yun recover unpaid wages, and even using taekwondo (a system reward) to defend A Yun from harassment. A Yun goes from "This sister is weird today" to admiring her as "She seems to know everything." But Lin Xiaoman never expects—A Yun has long recognized her as "Sister Xiaoman" from the orphanage, who gave her the only marinated egg years ago. And the system? It's just fate's way of helping them reunite.
