The main text begins:
A rabbit stared intently at the person lying motionless on the ground in front of it, as if it had spotted something rare, and tentatively moved closer.
Just then, the person on the ground suddenly rolled over, swiftly grabbed the rabbit, and stroked its soft white fur with his fingertips, muttering indistinctly, "Xiaoli, stop messing around. I've already given it to you ten times. Let me rest for a bit, and I'll give you a bigger tip later."
The pure white rabbit was terrified by the nonsense and squeaked wildly. It flailed its limbs but couldn't break free from the large hand. In desperation, it bit down hard on the outstretched finger, just as the old saying goes—even a rabbit will bite when cornered.
The pain from the bite jolted Zhang Lei sobered him up with a thud. The excruciating pain in his fingertip instantly brought him to his senses. He shook his bleeding finger and looked around. All he could see were towering trees and overgrown weeds.
Zhang Lei shook his heavy head, staggered to his feet, and muttered to himself, "Where is this? How did I get here?"
He called out into the empty woods, "Hey, is anyone there? Don't joke around, come out now!"
He glanced around again, feeling like he'd been pranked, and shouted, "Come out, everyone! I see you!"
Zhang Lei frowned as he walked deeper into the woods, craning his neck to look around and muttering to himself, "Where's the camera? I refuse to believe I can't find it; it must be hidden behind some tree."
He walked for a full ten minutes, his feet sinking into the deep, uneven ground, the fallen leaves crunching under his feet. He didn't see a single camera, not even a shadowy figure, nor any trace of human intervention. A chill crept up his spine, and fear slowly enveloped his heart like a tidal wave.
He slapped his head hard. The scene from last night was still as clear as if it had just happened—he had clearly brought a girl he had just met at the bar into the hotel, and the two of them were laughing and joking about enjoying the night. How did they end up in this desolate wilderness the moment he closed his eyes and opened them again?
Countless movie scenes flashed through his mind in an instant. He stood there, pale-faced, his mind racing with wild guesses: Had he been kidnapped? Or had he encountered some supernatural event? Could it really be like those jungle survival shows in movies and TV dramas?
Just as Zhang Lei was lost in thought while gazing at the desolate forest, countless fragments of memories suddenly flooded into his mind.
Those unfamiliar images and information churned in his mind, and it took him several minutes to sort out these fragments.
Zhang Lei plopped down on the ground, panting heavily, and couldn't help but curse, "Damn it, I transmigrated myself? Was it really that easy?"
He thought of modern life again and muttered regretfully, "What a pity for so many girls, so many girls who need my warmth."
From the fragments of memory, Zhang Lei finally figured out the situation: this was actually a parallel world of Love in the Courtyard.
That's right, it's the same place where that silly Zhu got tricked his whole life in "Full House of Love," Zhang Lei thought to himself.
The original owner shared the same name as him, Zhang Lei, and was tall, standing at 1.85 meters, with a handsome and refined appearance.
Like all time-travel dramas, the story begins with the parents being sacrificed to the heavens, granting the characters boundless magical power.
The original owner's father was a purchasing agent at a steel rolling mill, while his mother worked as an accountant at the mill.
The original owner was introverted and a real taciturn person, rarely saying a word.
The original owner's father felt sorry for his son and specially spent money to get him a job as a purchasing agent, hoping to use his connections and resources to help his son carry out his work smoothly.
But no one expected that a month ago, spies hiding in the steel rolling mill had their eyes on the wages of the steel rolling mill employees and had meticulously planned a conspiracy to sabotage them.
The original owner's mother tragically sacrificed herself while guarding the wages, and the original owner's father was also brutally murdered by criminals while protecting his wife.
In the end, the spy was successfully captured and the employees' wages were saved, but the original owner's parents could never come back.
The original owner was deeply affected by the sudden sacrifice of her parents, and her personality became more taciturn than before, staying at home all day and unwilling to go out.
However, there was some consolation: thanks to her parents' deeds, the original owner received two martyr certificates. She also received a pension of 1000 yuan, which was no small sum at the time.
The steel mill was very generous, taking care of all the funeral services for the original owner's parents, from setting up the mourning hall to the funeral procession and burial, arranging everything perfectly so that the original owner didn't have to worry about anything.
That's why those opportunistic beasts in the courtyard had no chance of getting anything out of the original owner.
The original owner was found in this desolate mountain because he was tricked by Jia Dongxu from the courtyard house.
It was 1959, a year of great famine, and supplies were scarce, making procurement even more difficult. The original owner of this body was a quiet, reserved person who didn't like interacting with people, and this personality flaw made the already challenging procurement task seem impossible.
Jia Dongxu, recognizing the original owner's naivety and gullibility, deliberately tricked him by saying there were many wild animal caves in the mountains, and that he could easily catch prey. He even patted his chest and guaranteed that as long as the original owner went hunting in the mountains, he could easily complete the purchasing task.
The original owner was too easily fooled and actually believed Jia Dongxu's lies. He grabbed a machete and hurriedly took a car to the mountains.
Zhang Lei rubbed his rumbling stomach and instantly knew the answer—the original owner probably starved to death, or if not, he would probably die of starvation in this desolate mountain.
Zhang Lei looked down at the rusty machete at his feet, and a bizarre thought suddenly popped into his head. He couldn't help but grin and mutter, "Am I starting with just a knife, and the rest of the game is just a series of bluffs?"
He shook his head as soon as he finished speaking, feeling that the idea was really unreliable.
He's an SSSVIP with over 10,000 hours of reading time on Tomato Reading. He's read so many transmigration novels, and he's never seen a protagonist who transmigrates without having a cheat code.
Zhang Lei thought to himself, "Now that I've transmigrated to the world of Love in the Courtyard, I should at least get a system, right?"
Zhang Lei cleared his throat, craned his neck, and shouted into the empty woods, "System? Master? Answer me if you hear me!"
After shouting, he deliberately held his breath and listened carefully to the surrounding sounds. He could even hear the rustling of leaves in the wind, but he didn't get any response.
"Feed? System, are you there? Are you there?"
"Um... you cheater? Could you say something?"
"Great artifact? Did you hide it?"
"Golden Finger Bro? Stop hiding, I know you're here!"
"Hey Tong, bro, wanna chat for a bit?"
"A hidden skill master? If you don't show it soon, I'm going to unleash my ultimate move and call for help!"
"You little cheater? Didn't you hear me because my voice was too soft?"
"Golden Finger, would you do me the honor of showing your face?"
"System, bro? Is the signal bad? Give me a response!"
"Superpowered Buff Guy? Hiding it so well, are you trying to test my patience?"
"Grandpa Welfare? Don't pretend, I know you're watching from the shadows!"
"Hey, you cheat code guy? If you don't say anything soon, I'll pretend you don't exist!"
