Protagonist:

Lu Feng

Ma Wenliang stared blankly for a moment, looking at that round intern: "Didn't you say you were losing weight, only eating vegetables for meals? How come you want xiaolongbao again?"

Then he looked at the other intern: "And you, didn't you say Lu Boss's stuff is expensive, that you wouldn't go even if beaten to death?"

"Brother Liang, I bought those xiaolongbao for good luck, to rub some of your luck!"

"Yeah Brother Liang, look, you closed a contract with just one portion of xiaolongbao, that's too enviable! Honestly Brother Ma, I'm really envious!"

…………

Four PM.

Sunlight passed through the floor-to-ceiling windows of Villa No. 8 at Yunding Huating No. 8 Courtyard, warming the house.

Lu Feng, who had just finished this week's business and returned to the villa, felt his originally taut nerves relax.

"Finally made it through this week."

Lu Feng plopped down into the living room's soft genuine leather sofa, muttering to himself.

Then he rallied and said urgently to the air: "System, this week's mission is done, right? Hurry up and arrange the reward!"

【Ding! Congratulations Host on completing this week's mission, gaining one lucky draw opportunity.】

【May I ask if Host wants Li Ji to open the lucky draw?】

The system's familiar electronic voice rang in Lu Feng's mind.

"Draw! Draw right now!"

Lu Feng sat up straight, clenched his fists, and said decisively.

The next second, a huge colorful roulette wheel appeared in his mind.

The wheel's face was divided into dozens of differently sized squares, each marked with a reward name.

Lu Feng's gaze swept rapidly across, his heart pounding uncontrollably.

At one glance he saw the reward square on the wheel written with "Ten Million Cash", his eyes turning into knife-happy shapes.

Ten million cash!

If he drew this, for the rest of his life even if he did nothing, he'd have no worries about food and drink!

Before he could continue checking the other reward contents, the wheel seemed to have its start button suddenly pressed, spinning rapidly.

Lu Feng held his breath, eyes fixed dead on the pointer on the wheel, silently praying in his heart.

Cash! I want cash!

If not a cash reward, a luxury car, luxury villa, or Lost Recipe would work too!

Lu Feng expressed he wasn't greedy, he didn't pick among these rewards.

The wheel's spinning speed gradually slowed, the pointer sweeping past one reward square after another.

Watching the pointer get closer and closer to the "Ten Million Cash" reward, Lu Feng's heart rose with it.

But just as the wheel pointer was about to stop on the cash reward square, the wheel shifted slightly, and the pointer finally stopped on an inconspicuous square next to it.

【Ding! Congratulations Host on obtaining reward: Max-Level Combat Technique, adapted to Host's current physical fitness, can be directly used proficiently!】

"What?"

Lu Feng froze, eyes widening round, only feeling his head buzzing.

Max-Level Combat Technique?

Lu Feng frowned, tone quite dissatisfied: "System, did something weird get mixed into your rewards? I'm a chef! Not a cop, what use is this thing?"

Could it be the system thinks his shop has too many miscellaneous rules.

Worried he'll get beaten by customers later, so gave him this reward?

But it's a rule-of-law society now, beating people means going to the Small Black Room!

Besides, his shop follows the healing-food route.

If he really fought a customer, and word got out, who'd dare come eat here?

But complaining aside, the system's reward wouldn't let him refuse.

A cool sensation slowly spread from the top of his head to his limbs and bones, like countless subtle electric currents combing through his body's meridians.

Immediately after, massive amounts of combat technique information surged into his mind.

This information wasn't just vivid scenes, but formed muscle memory in him.

Lu Feng felt as if he'd become a martial arts master from a movie, right now really wanting to shout: "I'll take on ten!"

Although he felt this reward had no use for him.

But since it's given, trying the effect doesn't hurt.

Lu Feng stood up and moved his body, could clearly feel his body seemed much more agile than before.

He threw a punch at the air, faintly hearing the sound of fist wind.

Then he tried a few simple side kick movements, his body steady throughout.

If before, after these few movements he'd have long lost balance and fallen on his butt.

Lu Feng rummaged through boxes and cabinets and found the arm strength bar he hadn't used in a long time.

Before, to bend this thing he needed great strength.

Now he could bend it easily, did several dozen in a row, arms not even a bit sore.

Looks like his strength also increased quite a bit compared to before.

"Not bad. With this physical fitness, cooking shouldn't tire you out so easily anymore."

Lu Feng stroked his chin and nodded slightly.

Still, he felt a bit disappointed inside.

He was clearly a man determined to become the God of Cooking, yet this Max-Level Combat Technique seemed to have no other use besides improving his physical fitness compared to before.

It would be far better to give some cash rewards!

Just as he was silently complaining about the system's reward this time, the system's electronic voice suddenly rang out in his mind again.

【Congratulations, Host, on completing the Newbie Phase mission. Having completed weekly missions for four consecutive weeks, an extra reward of five million cash is awarded to the Host!】

"Damn?"

Lu Feng's expression showed both surprise and joy, and he felt much more spirited all at once.

The Newbie Phase mission was completed, and there was a cash reward too?

This dog system was actually this generous for once!

And the reward was five million cash!

The mobile phone on the living room table immediately made a "ding" sound.

Lu Feng quickly walked over, picked it up, and saw that five million had already arrived in his account.

Now he felt comfortable inside.

Although Lu Feng thought the villa and luxury car previously rewarded by the system were not bad, and were worth millions,

those were all fixed assets.

As someone who really liked money, he still preferred looking at that string of numbers in his bank card, feeling that this was what truly made him feel secure inside.

Just as he was immersed in the joy brought by five million cash, the system's electronic voice rang out again.

This time's content made him feel happy inside again.

【This system is about to enter the Upgrade phase. Upgrade duration is 24 hours.】

【After the upgrade is complete, the Host can decide the daily Business Hours himself. Business hours from Monday to Friday each day must not exceed 2 hours.】

Finally waited for this!

From now on he could finally decide the daily Business Hours himself, and never again worry about being forced by the system to operate until midnight.

Lu Feng let out a long sigh of relief.

Immediately after, the system's prompt sound still did not stop, continuing to ring out in his mind.
