It was actually quite easy to solve the money issue.
He could either put his shame away and ask his family for the money, or he could borrow from Pang Tutu. At the very least, he could earn the money through a part-time job.
He wasn’t someone who despised doing part-time jobs.
What was more of a headache was the book issue.
Lu Wu had been reading books in the library these days, and he really enjoyed reading.
But his happy days would end soon, because tomorrow, after the graduation ceremony for the final years, their summer vacation would start.
During the holiday, the school would be closed. Even if he was a student of the school, Lu Wu could no longer come to the library to pick up books.
This was a heavy blow to Lu Wu. He had never hated a vacation so much before!
Why was there a need for a school holiday?!
As a student, especially as a student who was about to prepare for the college entrance examination, shouldn’t they put as much time as possible into learning? Why was there a holiday?
He, Lu Wu, refused to comply!
He loved learning, don’t make him stop!
But this kind of thing was not something that could be changed if Lu Wu refused to accept it.
No matter how much he refused, it would not change the fact that his privilege to enjoy free books would end today.
Therefore, after Lu Wu finished reading the last book for the day, he had no other choice but to reluctantly get up and prepare to put the book back on the shelf and leave the library.
At this moment, he heard a voice from his side.
“Let me do it!”
Lu Wu was taken aback. Turning his head, he saw that it was his teacher Li Chun. He got up immediately and called, “Mr Li!”
Li Chun nodded and came over. Allowing no explanations, he took away the books from Lu Wu and Pang Tutu’s hands, then drove them out of the library. “It’s getting late. I will help you to put the books back. Go home early, don’t let your families worry about you!”
“Um, thank you Mr Li!”
Li Chun’s attitude was firm, so Lu Wu had no choice but to go back with Pang Tutu after thanking Mr Li.
From Li Chun’s perspective, after watching Lu Wu and the others leave, his gaze fell on the stack of books that Lu Wu was reading.
Looking at this stack of books such as “Adventures in Secret Realms”, “On the Benefits of the Secret Realm to Summoned Beasts”, “The Most Suitable Secret Realm for the Undead Class”, Li Chun couldn’t help but worry.
Li Chun was a very responsible teacher. Since Lu Wu’s “chicken soup”, no, it was more accurate to say that since Lu Wu fainted during the Summoner’s Ceremony, Li Chun had been particularly concerned for Lu Wu.
He was afraid that Lu Wu would be too stubborn and take things too hard. Now that he saw the titles of these books, Li Chun felt that his worries were not unnecessary.
“This kid said that he’ll work hard. I should have guessed he’s planning to do something silly. Miracles happening through adventure in the secret realm? That’s just fantasy! Not to say he cannot afford the cost of a trip to the secret realm, with how weak he is, what if an accident happened to him in the secret realm?”
“No, no, I must find something for him to be preoccupied with. I can’t let him have the time to do such stupid things.”
“That’s right! Didn’t my uncle just recently open a Summoner’s shop after getting the business license? I heard that he’s been hiring employees for the shop, I could probably get this kid over to work for my uncle during the entire school holiday. Surely, my uncle won’t mind. But I wonder if this kid is willing to go?”
This idea was good, but Li Chun still had a headache. How could he convince Lu Wu to give up looking for some miracles and go to work obediently!
……
On Lu Wu’s side.
When he got home, it was already almost ten o’clock.
These days, Lu Wu’s father, Lu Haikong, was on a business trip. Lee Ruyu and Lu Ni went to bed early and were already asleep. When Lu Wu came back, he was alone at home.
But Lee Ruyu left him his dinner and sent an SMS in advance, reminding him to heat it before eating.
Looking at Lee Ruyu’s SMS and the food Lee Ruyu prepared for him, Lu Wu’s mood was particularly complicated.
He could feel the concern from Lee Ruyu. He was very touched, but he couldn’t face it frankly.
After all, although he inherited the memory of his predecessor, he was not the predecessor.
So, he couldn’t accept the care from his parents with ease. The more they cared about him and the better they were to him, the more Lu Wu would feel guilty.
He felt a vague guilt as if he had killed their beloved son, which was particularly uncomfortable.
So in the past few days, Lu Wu had left home early and returned late to avoid them.
“This is not the way to go. I have to try to adjust my mentality. It’s best if I can adjust my mindset. But if I can’t, then I can only find a way to move out!”
Thinking this, Lu Wu sighed and then adjusted his mentality. He finished the meal prepared by Lee Ruyu, washed the dishes, and then sent Lee Ruyu a “Thank you, good night!”
After doing this, Lu Wu looked at the time and found out that it was already ten thirty!
This was the time that an ordinary student should get to bed, but Lu Wu’s nightlife had just begun.
It’s just that Lu Wu’s nightlife was not the same as other people’s nightlife.
Other people’s nightlife was relaxation and indulgence, but his nightlife was hard work and more hard work.
He wanted to take some time to organize the knowledge he had memorized today and try to fully understand them.
In this regard, Lu Wu had a special method, which was to polish the Skeleton’s quality enhancement program.
He digested all the knowledge he gained and incorporated it into the enhancement program of Skeleton.
It took one to two hours to sort out several proposals.
Then, he would use his limited knowledge and the hint given by the sharp-tongued system to conduct a comprehensive analysis of these proposals, then finally select one that he believed was reliable and submit it.
He did this every day, taking around two or three hours per day.
This was why Lu Wu was able to come up with the 2.0 version within just a few days.
For Lu Wu, having a golden finger and working hard were entirely different matters.
Although he did not believe in chicken soup or in blind hard work, he firmly believed that a golden finger in addition to hard work would bring him much further than a golden finger alone.
[Ding~ Do you wish to submit a revised program?]
“Yes!”
When the clock reached twelve thirty, after Lu Wu submitted the program he had worked on for two hours, the system quickly responded.
[Do you wish to check the revised plan?]
“Yes!”

Quality Enhancement Program: Skeleton’s Training Manual Version 2.0 Modified Edition
Specific steps: Added Bone Grass and Phantom Flower to the original procedure.
Effect: Greatly improve the bone strength of Skeleton, allowing its quality to reach [Iron] instantly.
But after the enhancement, Skeleton can only survive for 3 minutes. After 3 minutes, Skeleton’s bones will shatter and it will die, producing severe backlash to your mental power.
Remark: Well, it’s a very good plan, you’re very creative to think up this way of killing your summoned beast. Please continue to work hard, I believe you’ll find out many more ways to kill your summoned beast.
PS: Quality enhancement is not to be rushed, to go beyond is as wrong as to fall short.
…
Obviously, Lu Wu failed again, but he was not depressed.
He directly ignored the system’s ridicule, grasped the key points and started to reflect…
