In a corner of a third-tier private university, a beautiful girl named Shen Wei was daydreaming.
She was a senior about to graduate this year, and a campus celebrity - after all, she was the daughter of the school director.
People at the school were jealous of her good fortune, with her family having become wealthy from property acquisition.
That money would take an ordinary person a lifetime to spend.
The school director only had this one precious daughter, and over the past four years of university, countless affluent men had tried to attach themselves to her, hoping to reach the top in one step and save twenty years of struggling.
At this moment, Shen Wei sat in the corner, having just shooed away a few people who tried to chat her up.
It was her senior year, and if these wealthy men didn't seize the chance now, it would be difficult for them to get close to her after graduation.
Shen Wei was frowning deeply, deterring anyone else from approaching her.
Little did they know that at this moment, a mechanical voice was echoing incessantly in Shen Wei's mind, driving her crazy.
"Shen Wei, please bind to the System."
The mechanical voice repeated.
Shen Wei was also a prominent figure at school. After graduating, she would directly inherit her family's assets and become a petty landlord, living a wonderful life.
But now this System had suddenly appeared, telling her that she was actually a side character in a novel, and that the real female lead was her cousin Shen Qingqing.
The book was called "The Cruel CEO's Sweet Little Tender Wife."
Shen Qingqing would become the arrogant CEO's lover after overcoming many difficulties, and eventually get together with him in a sugar-coated romance.
Meanwhile, Shen Wei was just a random person constantly clashing with Shen Qingqing.
Before long, she would be coldly discarded, her chastity insulted, and ultimately doomed to commit suicide by jumping into a river.
Her parents, unable to bear the humiliation, would also fall gravely ill and pass away, with their assets conveniently falling into Shen Qingqing's hands!
This was outrageous.
Shen Wei was fuming. Shen Qingqing was just a nobody relying on their family.
According to the novel's progression, it wouldn't be long before she encountered this arrogant CEO and their love-hate relationship began.
In other words, Shen Wei didn't have much time left.
Anyone would be in a foul mood after falling from heaven's favor to such a miserable fate.
At this moment, ten thousand wild horses were raging in Shen Wei's heart.
After a long pause, she finally responded to the System.
"What will happen if I don't bind to the System?"
The System's cold electronic voice replied: "If you do not bind, the System will proceed according to the original storyline and enter a cycle of rebirth."
"Ordinary people cannot escape the control of fate."
Shen Wei understood the System's implication - only by binding to the System could she save herself.
After a moment of silence, she finally said: "Bind to the System!"
Instantly, the System's voice became more lively: "Loading for you now. You have bound to the Super Kindergarten System."
"Huh? What system?"
"The Kindergarten System. Because many villains in the original world had traumatic childhoods, rescuing these future world-destroyers preserves the safety of the smaller world."
"Protecting children is protecting the world."
"After rescuing the villains, the System will reward you by correcting your life."
The System then transmitted information about a few villains to her.
In an instant, a flood of complex information surged into her mind. It took her a long time to process it all.
Though it only lasted a few seconds, it felt like she had lived through the villains' entire lives.
Even Shen Wei couldn't help but curse at them - these villains were simply too pitiful.
The future computer genius He Lingfeng, who could break through national and international network blockades through self-study, should have become a brilliant gem in the field of technology.
Yet due to being abused by his father from a young age, he developed an extreme and stubborn personality, ultimately walking down the wrong path.
The future world-renowned painter suffered sexual assault, developing autism as a result.
And one of the highly intelligent criminal masterminds had to fight dogs for scraps of food as a child.
Without exception, their lives flashed brilliantly for but an instant before plunging into permanent darkness.
If not for those tragic childhoods, perhaps many things would not have happened.
And now, these future world-destroying villains were all under the age of 5 on average.
There was no reason to hesitate. Shen Wei immediately called her family to say she would not inherit their assets and instead pursue her own entrepreneurial path.
Shen Wei was a woman of her word. She immediately moved to acquire a kindergarten, using her considerable allowance as the daughter of a wealthy family.
With money in hand, she had no worries.
Now that she had bound to the System, they were comrades-in-arms. As a state-of-the-art AI, the System was exceptionally capable at collecting big data!
In less than a minute, it had scanned over twenty kindergartens that were up for sale.
These days, kindergartens were highly competitive.
Some focused on developing special talents, others on bilingual education, and still others on various forms of early intellectual development.
The best kindergarten in the city was the Noble Academy Kindergarten, which covered all these areas!
It was considered the pinnacle for kindergartens by locals.
To get into this kindergarten, you had to book at least a year in advance, and the parents had to go through individual interviews.
Rumor had it the parents at this kindergarten were among the top elite in the province.
The stricter the rules, the more people flocked to it.
Securing a spot at the Noble Academy Kindergarten was a huge status symbol.
This was the main reason why most other kindergartens in the province had a shortage of students.
Shen Wei inquired around and found that at least ten kindergartens were willing to sell.
She chose the largest one, occupying over 10,000 square meters of land.
The campus even had its own custom-built slide kindergarten, as the original owner had grand ambitions.
But upon realizing it was impossible to compete, they had no choice but to put the lavishly decorated kindergarten on clearance sale.
After half a year with no buyers, Shen Wei's offer of less than one-tenth the price finally landed her the once luxurious kindergarten.
In a blatant attempt to ride on the Noble Academy Kindergarten's popularity, this kindergarten had previously changed its name to the Noble Academy Kindergarten.
A single character difference, easily causing confusion, but it couldn't replicate the essence of its namesake and went out of business shortly after.
After acquiring the kindergarten, the first thing Shen Wei did was change its name to Starry Sky Kindergarten.
"When together, a brilliant blaze; when scattered, a starry sky."
After renaming it, she quickly got people to put up the new signboard.
With the System's help, all the transfer procedures were completed online almost effortlessly.
The new signboard was up before evening.
Shen Wei's mind was filled with the System's reward chime.
"Congratulations to Shen Wei for successfully establishing Starry Sky Kindergarten. System reward: 1 million yuan, 10 jin of beef, 100 eggs, 2 jin each of vegetables and fruit."
"Initial reward of 1,000 points. When points reach 500,000, the store will be unlocked."
"Next task released. Quickly recruit a premium team for the kindergarten."
"One head chef with Level 1 certification."
"One school bus driver with over 10 years of experience."
"One top-tier preschool teacher."
"One early childhood education expert."
"One full-time custodian."
Shen Wei was dumbfounded by these requirements.
The System demanded recruiting industry veterans and experts to fill these roles for her unheralded kindergarten. The difficulty was astronomical.
