From Here On, Immorality Begins

Late at night, in a bar restroom located in the ancient city of Houhai,

Shen Xun twisted open the faucet on the sink with his right hand and scooped up a handful of water, splashing it on his face. After some time had passed, he slowly lifted his head and looked at himself in the mirror. His face was young and attractive, albeit slightly pale, with a touch of malevolent air.

According to the usual cliché, this handsome, wicked face in Houhai should have a fatal attraction to women.

In fact, that was the case in Shen Xun's life. At the age of twenty-one, he had already opened his own bar in Houhai and bought a Mercedes-Benz E-Class with full payment. Although he could hardly be considered very successful, he was already synonymous with "young and wealthy" in the small girls' frequent Houhai visits.

Inside the bar, countless women wanted to climb into his bed and have a romantic evening with him.

This was an enviable life, of course, provided he wasn't about to die.

Three days ago, he passed out in the bar and was then urgently sent to the hospital. It was discovered that he had a congenital cardiovascular obstruction, with the severity of the obstruction reaching 93 percent!

The hospital immediately gave him a death certificate, stating that Shen Xun's life was at most only a few days left and advise him to rest well and fulfil his wishes before it was too late.

When Shen Xun returned home, intending to quietly face his death, he was vaguely bound to a chip from future technology that night!

After binding to the chip, he suddenly found himself with the ability to see the lifespan of others and, most crucially, he became able to manipulate time!

However, it seemed that heaven was fair. If he wanted to manipulate time, he had to purchase time from others first.

By purchasing time, Shen Xun had absolute control over it, he could use it to extend his own life or sell the time to those in need or even accelerate or decelerate time!

Out of the blue, Shen Xun spoke expressionlessly,

"How much time left do I have?"

The world in his eyes changed dramatically in the next moment.

The misty mirror suddenly twisted and distorted, and then a long line of blood-red small

characters appeared in front of him.

"Name: Shen Xun,"

"Age: 22,"

"Remaining lifespan: 23 hours, 17 minutes, and 56 seconds."

The mist dissipated, and those blood-red characters disappeared.

Shen Xun narrowed his eyes. Does that mean he has less than a day to live before his heart attack occurs?

"It's time to try."

Shen Xun twisted the faucet shut with his right hand and strode out of the restroom.

When he walked out of the restroom, a bar named "Reindeer" was quiet; the quiet blues music flowed like a stream, and there were scattered customers in the bar.

Almost all female customers.

When Shen Xun walked out of the restroom, almost at the same time, these female customers lifted their heads and looked at Shen Xun with slightly drunken and colorful eyes.

They wanted to talk to Shen Xun, but they were hesitant inside. Everyone knows that the young and handsome boss of this bar has high standards. Unless he's interested in a woman, many people who approach him are coldly rejected, adding to the joke.

Shen Xun also looked at them.

He was looking for the right person to purchase time.

First, there was a mature, tall female white-collar worker.

"Name: Li Jing."

"Age: 25."

"Remaining lifespan: 39 years, 65 days, 9 hours, 19 minutes, and 53 seconds."

Shen Xun's gaze twisted slightly, and then he looked at a seductive woman with heavy makeup in a black bustier long dress.

"Name: Zhang Cai."

"Age: 23."

"Remaining lifespan: 27 years, 198 days, 47 minutes, and 41 seconds."

Shen Xun narrowed his eyes, planning to find one of the targets, or clients, to purchase time

when

suddenly a girl wearing a blue and white school uniform, with a rather innocent appearance, hesitated for a long time, seemingly mustering up the courage, took out a letter with pink hearts all over it from her uniform, lowered her head, walked up to Shen Xun, and pushed her hands forward, summoning her courage and shouted,

"Shen Xun, I've liked you for a long time! Please date me!"

It’s clear that this girl is very nervous, trembling, and holding her love letter tightly.

Shen Xun looked at her coolly, his eyes flashing with a hint of amusement.

The girl was pretty, with fair skin and delicate features. She must be a school flower admired by thousands in school.

Of course, this is not the reason why Shen Xun is moved. He has seen too many beautiful women; this girl is just ‘okay.’

The main reason is that on top of this girl, Shen Xun saw a row of blood-red characters.

"Name: Ye Qingxue,"

"Age: 19,"

"Remaining lifespan: 74 years, 21 days, 17 hours, 5 minutes, and 34 seconds."

Young body, lots of time, and love for oneself...

Shen Xun knew that his first client had arrived!

The next moment,

Shen Xun reached out and gently lifted the girl's chin, looking down at her with a frivolous and playful expression.

"Raise your head and look at me."

Ye Qingxue's chin was lifted, and her delicate body trembled, as if she had been electrified. Then she timidly raised her head and looked at Shen Xun.

Her eyes were full of a young girl's yearning for love.

Shen Xun's mouth curved into a smile and suddenly leaned down. His cheek approached Ye Qingxue's ear and whispered slowly and calmly,

"Tell me, what do you think can attract me from head to toe?"

Ye Qingxue, feeling the low and wicked voice near her ear, trembled more violently,

quaveringly said, "Shen, Shen Xun, I can do anything for you! Give you everything!"

"Give me everything? Hmm, it's naive and adorable. "

Shen Xun's mouth curved upwards, then he loosened Ye Qingxue's well-defined chin, straightened his body, and maintained an appropriate distance.

He looked down at her with more interest.

"I... I mean it!" Ye Qingxue seemed to think Shen Xun didn't believe her, biting her lower lip, and stubbornly said.

However, to her surprise, Shen Xun nodded and said,

"I believe you."

"Ah? Then..."

Ye Qingxue's expression was bewildered as she looked at Shen Xun, feeling a little confused.

Shen Xun faintly smiled, not offering too much of an explanation. He said instead, "Come with me, I have something to tell you."

Without further words, Shen Xun turned around and headed towards the second floor of the bar.
