Just started high school, and was assigned a self-discipline system.

Chapter 7 completes the "Friendship Expert" achievement, granting a +2 bonus to appearance

[System, I just spoke to that girl. Does that count as a conversation?]

[I'm sorry, host, that doesn't count. Only when you maintain a conversation with someone of the opposite sex for at least fifteen seconds does it qualify as communication. Please don't be afraid to communicate with the opposite sex; this is just normal interpersonal interaction. As long as you can communicate with the opposite sex normally without being humble or arrogant, even without improving your appearance, you will still have your own personal charm.]

After hearing the system's words, Lin Ye was at a loss for words. He knew that the system was right and that he shouldn't act timid and submissive when facing the opposite sex.

He took a deep breath and made a decision in his heart.

[Okay, system, I understand. I will no longer be afraid to communicate with them. What will be the punishment if I fail to complete the mission?]

[There is no penalty, but it will affect the host's evaluation. If tasks are not completed for a long time or the host is treated negatively, the number of tasks issued will be reduced. When the host's rating drops to a certain level, the system will automatically abandon the host and remove the host from the bond.]

Upon hearing the system's voice, Lin Ye felt a wave of dizziness. After all, even if he was incredibly stupid, he knew that this was a cheat code that ordinary people could only dream of. If he were to unbind the system for such a ridiculous reason, he would curse himself.

With this in mind, Lin Ye didn't hesitate at all, immediately got up and went out to start looking for his target.

At the same time, he began to think constantly about what kind of conversation he should use to start a conversation with others.

"Asking for directions? That's a good reason. The convenience store clerk seems quite pretty; I can ask her about some products later..."

Although the system said to communicate with attractive members of the opposite sex and to cultivate self-confidence, Lin Ye was not that confident. He did not think that his current appearance could attract them. If he forced a conversation, he would probably end up like when he met He Xuan.

After thinking it through, he first went to the convenience store and saw that the person on duty today was indeed that very pretty convenience store lady.

The other person didn't look very old, probably around his age. She had delicate features, a clean oval face, and was about 165 cm tall. She had long, smooth, and thick black hair, and even in simple convenience store clothes, her amazing charm was undeniable.

And now, the number 84 is displayed above her head, meaning that her appearance score has reached an astonishing 84 points, almost double that of Lin Ye.

"That's unbelievable, how can anyone in the world be so good-looking?"

After swallowing hard, Lin Ye walked over.

After entering, he cautiously asked, "Excuse me, where are the sports drinks?"

He deliberately slowed down his speech, hoping to get it down to 15 seconds quickly.

Yes, chatting with such a beautiful girl didn't give him any impure thoughts; on the contrary, he wished time would pass quickly.

Hearing Lin Ye's words, the girl did not look down on him because of his appearance. Instead, she smiled and said, "It's on that shelf over there."

"OK."

Lin Ye walked over and pretended to search for a while.

"Um, I wanted Red Bull, but I didn't see any."

"Oh, Red Bull? It's on the bottom shelf, it's a bit hidden. Let me help you."

"No need, no need, I saw it."

After saying that, Lin Ye quickly picked up a bottle of Red Bull and walked towards the other person.

Seeing this, the young lady smiled and paid her bill.

The conversation just now lasted more than 15 seconds, and Lin Ye could clearly see that the mission progress had changed to 1/2.

Now all I need to do is find someone else to chat with.

Thinking this, he unscrewed the cap, took a sip, and headed towards the park. Now, all he needed to do was ask a pretty girl for directions on his way to the park.

I don't know if today is his lucky day, but halfway there he actually met a pretty girl on the street, and her looks were exactly 70 out of 100.

A score of 70 is already quite good for a pretty girl. For example, the girl in front of us is sweet-looking with long, straight legs. She's the kind of girl who catches your eye.

He quickly moved closer, and the girl became visibly wary when she saw Lin Ye walking towards her.

"Hello there."

"I'm sorry, I have a boyfriend."

"No, I wasn't trying to hit on anyone."

"They don't even add each other on WeChat."

"No, I don't want to add you on WeChat. I just want to ask how to get to the park."

Upon hearing Lin Ye's words, the other person paused for a moment, then felt somewhat embarrassed, realizing that her actions just now seemed a little too casual.

"Um, just walk straight down this road to the end of the park, then turn left."

"Oh, okay, thank you."

"You are welcome."

It was clear that the other person's face had turned slightly red, but Lin Ye did not step forward to mock them at that moment. After thanking him, he quickly left.

The girl quickened her pace and left the spot quickly. Luckily, the boy hadn't laughed at her, otherwise, she would really want to die.

After arriving here, Lin Ye didn't idle around. Instead, he started running, intending to finish his running task for the day as well. Only after finishing all of this did Lin Ye finally go back.

The next morning, Lin Ye went to get a health certificate. Although the nurse who greeted him wasn't exactly a 70 out of 100 in looks, Lin Ye still boldly struck up a conversation with her, intending to practice his language skills.

"Sis, when will this certificate be ready?"

"Oh, it'll be quick. Our hospital can process it in 48 hours, and you can pick it up tomorrow."

"Okay, I see.

"By the way, you need to get a health certificate. Are you planning to work? I see your ID card; you're only 16, right?"

"Yeah, it's because summer vacation is so boring, so I thought I'd do some food delivery or something."

"Well, that's pretty good. You know how to use your free time to train yourself. Alright, take these materials to 502 for examination."

"Okay, sis."

Lin Ye then conducted a series of checks, which were completed in a short time.

Even if he went back later, it would be relatively early. After asking the system and learning that there were no problems with his body, Lin Ye began his daily training for the day.

With yesterday's experience, Lin Ye completed his task relatively smoothly today.

Unfortunately, the convenience store clerk didn't come to work today, so Lin Ye didn't try to talk to her.

[Congratulations, host! You have completed this week's task, becoming a social expert. You have successfully made 20 new friends. System rewards are now being issued: a two-point increase each in your appearance, physique, and charisma attributes.]
