Bai Chen stood there for a while before deciding to do another mission for today. He called up the mission dashboard without hesitation.
---
[Mission 40: Rest to the fullest]
Description: You have to get the utmost rest. You have 1 day.
Reward for success: Win 50 points + 50 magical bonuses
---
Looking at the details of the mission, Bai Chen could not help but smile. It was an easy task. He just had to rest for a day.
Not so long after that, his smile vanished from his face. He’d just realised that once he completed this mission, the system level would finally reach 20.
That meant the war of the 12 system owners would begin!
His facial expression turned serious when he thought about it.
‘If I complete this mission, my magical bonuses will total 790.’
Bai Chen still stood there, thinking.
‘That will be 790 magical bonuses. Only 210 bonuses left until I can do a trade for a high-grade item!’
Bai Chen thought things over again. Obviously, he did not want to use the bonuses now. He would keep them for the celestial world, and he thought of using them when the total reached 1,000 bonuses.
He wanted a high-grade item, even though he already knew what he would get from the memories that he had.
However, because the mission had changed, Bai Chen felt a little uncertain if the outcome was going to be the same.
He thought about this for a while and decided to get some rest. He had already booked a hotel room before coming to Beijing.
Bai Chen did not hesitate to use his stargazing walker technique to walk to the hotel.
............................................................
The weather was rather good the next day. Bai Chen woke up at a little past 8 a.m. He took a shower and changed. Then, he sat on the balcony, sipping his coffee while looking at Beijing’s scenery.

Bai Chen chose to do exactly what the mission had told him to. Thus, he would spend the whole day resting.
“I wonder if Xue Ning’s awake.” Bai Chen could not help but mutter this to himself. He hoped that she’d finally woken up.
He could not help but be concerned about her since she would lose a year of her memories once she woke up.
“Wait for me, Xue Ning. I’ll win the war and do everything in my power to restore your memories!”
Bai Chen was firm on this decision. It was at this time that his phone rang. He grabbed it and saw that it was Li Lin who’d called.
“What is it, Li Lin?” He spoke to her with a smile.
Li Lin responded with her cute voice. “Are you free? Let’s go shopping.”
“Of course. Where?” Bai Chen was free the whole day today. He quickly accepted the invitation from Li Lin.
After he knew where to meet her, he ended the call and left the hotel happily.
..................................................
There was not only one but two big news items that shook the whole of Beijing today while Bai Chen was leaving his hotel to see Li Lin!
The first one was the bankruptcy of the Xi family. The family had invested their money in an illegal foreign firm, which resulted in all the members of the family fleeing abroad.
The second news was from the Wang family, one of the big families of Beijing, like the Xi family. The head of the family, Wang Chon Feng, and his son, Wang Chengye, had been killed in the most pitiful way!
The killer was still unidentified, since the police had not found any evidence that led to the person. As for the rest of the family, they’d all gone out of the country last night for some unknown reason.
The Xi and the Wang families had been taken down in one day!
There were only three big families remaining from now: the Xu family, the Long family, and the Tang family.
Everyone in Beijing and the whole of China were in a tumult because of these two big news stories.
Every front page in China published the news.
Every news channel on TV also reported the news!
Inside the Xu family’s mansion, Xu San Zhien, the current head of the Xu family and Xu Xue Ning’s grandfather, called for a large gathering. It was obviously about the news items that had just been reported on.
Actually, it was not only the Xu family that did this, but the Long and the Tang family also did the same.
All three big families of Beijing were holding an urgent meeting at this moment.
While they were having a meeting, there was an indescribably beautiful woman sitting on a marble bench in the garden of the Xu family residence.
She looked at the bright blue sky. She seemed absent-minded and confused. She was Xu Xue Ning.
‘I feel like I’ve forgotten something very important,’ she thought.
She did not know why her heart ached when she thought about it.
“Young mistress, here is your orange juice.” Auntie Yi walked over to her and offered her a glass of orange juice that was sitting on a tray she was carrying.
She seemed nervous. She had been called here specifically to take care of Xu Xue Ning.
“Thank you, Auntie Yi.” Her facial expression turned back to normal. She took the glass from Auntie Yi’s hand.
Even so, she did not drink anything. She was not in the mood to drink anything at the moment.
Looking at Xu Xue Ning, Auntie Yi could not help but sigh. Since she’d heard that the young mistress had lost the memories of the past year, she had been alarmed and had not wanted to believe it.
Yet, she had to, since it was the truth!
She wanted to tell Xu Xue Ning about the lost memories, but it was a shame that Xu Xue Ning’s great-grandfather had forbidden her from doing so.
