Lying Flat, Forced to Be a Boss

Lin Yue, 33, IT architect, master's degree, died suddenly during his 47th all-nighter for a system launch. Reborn back to his senior year of high school, his life plan has only one rule: if he can avoid doing it, he won't do it. But the Peak System doesn't see it that way. Newbie task: rank in the top fifty of the grade. Main quest: become the youngest boss in the city. Lin Yue glanced at the panel and created a new blank document: "Requirements Defects and Arbitrage Solutions for the 'Peak System' Rule System." The system issues tasks, he finds loopholes; the system lowers penalties, he calculates cooldowns; the system activates forced mode, he proceeds with a requirements audit. The problem is, every time he "just barely passes," his homeroom teacher says he's hiding his brilliance, his rivals say he's playing the pig to eat the tiger, and the system tearfully awards him Best Host of the Year. Lin Yue just wants to ask: Do I really have to take this crappy job? — Description from novelcodex.orgFull novel: Lying Flat, Forced to Be a Boss — read the rest free on N​o⁠v​e⁠l​C⁠o​d⁠e​x⁠.​o⁠r​g⁠
