System: “…”

However, Jiang Xun didn’t want the system to answer her. She just had nothing better to do, so she chatted with the system.

System: “…”

Is there anyone who chats like you?

They chat until they die, did you know that?

There were also product categories in the store.

Jiang Xun looked at them one by one. There were skill categories, medicine categories, and secret manuals categories.

Jiang Xun suspected that when she had just came to this world, the original owner’s head had hit the ground, and the medicine that the system had given her had come from there.

Jiang Xun clicked on the medicine category to verify it, but who knew that the system would pop up a dialog box.

[Do you wish to spend 10,000 merit points to open the medicine category?]

Jiang Xun: “…”

How could she have forgotten about the system’s morality!

The system laughed dryly.

After Jiang Xun clicked ‘No,’ she clicked on the skill category.

[Would you like to spend 10,000 merit points to open up the skill category?]

Jiang Xun was a little hesitant.

She realized that if she opened up the system store, her merit points were no longer useful.

She had just spent 10,000 merit points to open up the system store.

Now, she only had 17,459 merit points left.

She could only open one category.

She felt that it was necessary to open the medicine category. Who knew when she would meet with an accident?

With medicine, she would always be prepared.

However, the skill category was also important.

Just as the system said, she was filming now and would partic.i.p.ate in various programs in the future.

She was definitely going to do some singing and dancing.

Therefore, Jiang Xun began to hesitate, which was rare.

Jiang Xun tapped her forehead repeatedly with her fingertips. Finally, she made a decision when she was about to arrive at the production team. “I’ll choose medicine first.”

She still had 17,459 merit points left. It cost 10,000 merit points to unlock the medicine category. As long as she earned another 3,000 merit points, she would be able to unlock the skills category.

Opening the medicine category might not be useful immediately, but it was better to be prepared.

No matter what time it was, life and health were very important, higher than her career.

Thus, Jiang Xun clicked on the medicine category.

[Do you wish to spend 10,000 merit points to open the medicine category?]

This time, Jiang Xun clicked on [Yes].

The medicine category was unlocked, and the category page appeared before Jiang Xun’s eyes.

There were all kinds of medicines inside.

The range was from medicines for the common cold, fever, sprains, burns, to hemostatic medicines, blood-replenishing medicines, and life-saving medicines.

Jiang Xun took a look and found that even though the medicine for minor illnesses and injuries seemed to be available in real life, the medicine in the system store was more effective.

Just like the medicine she used the day she first came, it had an immediate effect.

If you had a cold, fever, sprain, or burn, just take one.

The hemostatic medicine might sound ordinary, but its effect was to stop the bleeding immediately after you take it when you are seriously injured and lost too much blood. You would not continue to lose blood.

The blood-replenishing medicine was taken after you stopped losing blood. It could immediately replenish the amount of blood needed by the human body.

The life-saving medicine was taken when you were seriously injured or seriously ill. Taking one would allow you to stay alive.

Of course, this medicine might seem very powerful, but it was not necessarily like that.

The prerequisite for taking this medicine was that one had a way to cure the illness.

This medicine could buy time for people.

However, if it was a terminal illness, and it would be impossible to treat it with modern medicine when one was on the verge of death, it would be a waste to take this medicine.

Jiang Xun: “They all look very impressive, but none of them can cure a terminal illness?”

The system said, “We are not allowed to go against nature and break through the scientific limits of the current human society. Therefore, the medicine provided by the system is only to increase the efficacy of the medicine within the technology of the current society. How is it possible to bring the dead back to life? Even for you, because of your merit, your soul was taken by us to be reborn in the modern world, and you could not be resurrected in the same place.”

Jiang Xun said, “Alright.”

However, these medicines were very powerful.

With access to medicine in hand, she wouldn’t panic.

These medicines would cost different merit points depending on their effects.

“How long is the shelf life of these medicines?” Jiang Xun asked.

The system said, “Three days.”

Jiang Xun said, “In other words, I can’t buy them in advance and keep them in stock. Therefore, I have to maintain sufficient merit points at all times in case I need to buy medicine from the system store in case of any unexpected situations. I’ll need to have sufficient merit points at all times.”

System: “…”

The host’s plan was still as long-term as before.

Jiang Xun looked at her remaining merit points. 7,000 points might seem like a lot, but it was really too little to spend!

The system’s appet.i.te was getting bigger and bigger, and it wanted more and more.

She had to hurry up and earn more.

When she arrived at the production team, Jiang Xun went to get ready for makeup.

Because the character that Jiang Xun played was sick, her complexion couldn’t be too good.

However, Jiang Xun’s complexion was extremely good after being nourished by Mufeng. Hence, every time, the makeup artist used a thick layer of foundation to cover up Jiang Xun’s good complexion.

Originally, Xiuse was already hostile towards Jiang Xun. Since yesterday, it only got worse.

She could only watch helplessly as Jiang Xun became more and more beautiful in the past few days. Her complexion was visibly rosy.

This redness was not only due to her health, but it was also because she had been pampered and irrigated.

Xiuse was not an ignorant little girl. She knew very well the difference between a healthy and pampered redness.

As for who caused Jiang Xun to have such a change, other than Mufeng, she couldn’t think of anyone else.

Thinking back to how she was so confident that she could s.n.a.t.c.h Mufeng away from Jiang Xun, but she didn’t succeed, Xiuse became even more frustrated.

Jiang Xun finished putting on her makeup and came out to prepare for filming.

This was the scene that was nearing the end.

Cheng Yao, who was played by Jiang Xun, was caught by Xiuse while she was killing someone. She had a lot of scenes with Xiuse.

Zilong called Jiang Xun and Xiuse over and explained the scene to them.

The shooting officially began.

Jiang Xun knocked out the sister of the female lead played by Xiuse and dragged her to an abandoned factory. She tied the sister of the female lead to a pillar and then splashed her awake.

The actress, who was playing the sister of the female lead, saw the look in Jiang Xun’s eyes and cried out crazily.

However, her mouth was covered with tape. She could not open her mouth at all and could only make a m.u.f.fled sound from her nose.

Her eyes were so wide open that a large part of the whites of her eyes could be seen. She kept shaking her head as if her eyes were about to pop out. She was shouting at the top of her voice.

Big tears streamed down, and she was on the verge of breaking down at any moment.

Zilong and the a.s.sistant director watched from the small screen. The a.s.sistant director sighed and said, “I didn’t expect Teacher Yuan’s acting skills to be so good. I feel like I’m right there on the scene.”

“Teacher Yuan’s skills were so well-hidden! Why didn’t I see such a performance in Teacher Yuan’s previous scenes?” Someone said.

“It’s possible that her emotions didn’t explode to this extent during previous scenes, right?”

Zilong shouted “Cut!” and the whole audience burst into enthusiastic applause.

“Teacher Yuan, your scene is too strong!”

“Oh my G.o.d! Your performance is too good. Your emotions were expressed too well.”

“You performed all the emotions of a person facing death! The feelings of fear, collapse, and the desire to live were all shown! It’s as if you were really a person standing on the brink of death!”
