Chapter 2: Sister Ye Ling
Ye Chui turned the wheelchair with his hands and went to the bathroom to wash his face. Just as he was planning to lie down on the bed to rest for a while, the door to his room was pushed open. A kindly-faced woman peeked her head in. Seeing Ye Chui, she smiled and said, "Hammer, you're already up. I've made breakfast, let's eat together."
This woman was Ye Chui's mother, Zhou Yayun. She used to work for a small company but resigned to stay home and take care of Ye Chui after his legs were paralyzed.
Ye Chui was planning to sleep, but hearing his mother's words made him change his mind. If his mother found out he had stayed up all night, she would surely be worried and angry.
Rubbing his tired eyes, Ye Chui turned the wheelchair and left the room.
Ye Chui's family was an ordinary family of four. His father was a small workshop supervisor in a factory, working nine to five every day. By the time Ye Chui came out, his father had already left for the morning shift. Besides his parents, Ye Chui had a younger sister named Ye Ling, who was studying at a music academy and played the piano beautifully.
Seeing Ye Chui come out of his room, Ye Ling, who was sitting at the dining table eating, greeted him cheerfully, "Brother, you're up."
Ye Ling had just turned eighteen. She was very cute and a real beauty in the making. It was said that since elementary school, she had numerous admirers.
"Xiaoling, isn't it summer vacation? You usually love to sleep in. Why are you up so early today?" Ye Chui asked with a smile.
Ye Chui quickly integrated into this unfamiliar family. In his previous life, he was an orphan, but after being reborn in this body, the family's meticulous care made him regard them as his true family.
"Hehe, I have something to do today, so I got up early." Ye Ling said with a smile, her face full of anticipation.
"You look so happy. Are you going on a date?" Ye Chui teased.
He wheeled himself to the dining table, where his mother, Zhou Yayun, brought over a bowl of porridge and two small buns. That was breakfast, eaten with some pickles.
While turning to get the pickle dish, Zhou Yayun smiled and said, "She found a job playing the piano at a high-end restaurant, and today is her first day."
Ye Chui paused slightly as he picked up a bun, looking at Ye Ling, "You're going to work?"
"Yes, I’m eighteen now, old enough to work. Besides, I recently passed the eighth level of piano exams, so being a restaurant pianist is no problem for me." Ye Ling said cheerfully, looking at Ye Chui, "I can earn a hundred Huayuan a day, brother. I'll save up money to help your legs recover."
Ye Chui's legs were paralyzed, but it wasn't irreversible. After the car accident, his legs healed but the muscles atrophied, and the nerves were damaged, losing sensation. However, the advanced technology in this world had developed special medicine to restore muscle activity. With a few treatment courses, Ye Chui's legs could fully recover.
However, this medicine was extremely expensive, costing three million per course, totaling tens of millions for several courses. This was not something Ye Chui's ordinary family could afford.
Ye Chui's father, Ye Haishan, was the main breadwinner of the family. He worked as a workshop supervisor in an electronics factory, a decent job, but his monthly salary was only about five thousand, barely enough to cover household expenses, let alone save up millions.
Of course, after being reborn in this world, Ye Chui didn't succumb to despair like the original Ye Chui. He planned to use his rich gaming experience from the other world to make a fortune, starting with creating the game Lianliankan. He also intended to introduce other blockbuster games.
The absence of a gaming industry in this world was a huge opportunity for Ye Chui!
Hearing that his sister was working to save money for his treatment, Ye Chui felt deeply moved. He knew his sister had always been pampered and had never endured hardship, but now she was willing to work as a restaurant pianist to help with family expenses. Given her personality, she would never have done this before.
"Xiaoling, you don't have to do this," Ye Chui said in a low voice, feeling quite uncomfortable.
"Hmph, don't flatter yourself. I'm not doing this for you. I just want to earn my own pocket money." Ye Ling said proudly, her face showing a princess-like attitude, "Only the leftover money is for your treatment, just a little bit each time."
As she spoke, Ye Ling pinched her thumb and forefinger together, as if to show how little she meant.
Ye Chui was amused by his sister's antics, knowing she was trying to reassure him.
"Don't worry about her," Zhou Yayun said, bringing a dish of shredded carrots to the table, "The restaurant Xiaoling is working at is a very reputable one. Your father checked it out. It's an elegant place, and your sister playing piano there isn't beneath her."
"That's right," Ye Ling added quickly, "I heard many people from film companies eat there. Maybe a talent scout will discover me and make me a star."
"Keep dreaming," Zhou Yayun laughed, not taking it seriously. She didn’t believe her daughter would be that lucky.
"You never know," Ye Chui smiled, thinking, "Xiaoling is pretty and has a good voice. She does have the potential to be a star. Maybe I can help her with that..."
"Alright, I'm off," Ye Ling said, quickly finishing her porridge and standing up. "I'm going to work. Bye, Mom. Bye, brother."
"Be careful on the way," Zhou Yayun called after her.
Ye Chui slowly finished his breakfast with his mother. Although Zhou Yayun stayed home to take care of Ye Chui, she still occasionally took accounting jobs to make extra money. After cleaning up, she went to her study to work.
Ye Chui planned to catch up on some sleep. He was exhausted from staying up all night.
But just then, his wrist communicator beeped, indicating an incoming call request.
"Lin Xin..." Ye Chui was slightly stunned when he saw the name.
Lin Xin, wasn't she his ex-girlfriend, that bitch?
