I started to become more self-disciplined at the age of 30

Chapter 2 2. At , start being self-disciplined! Is someone spying on me?
At the age of thirty, start to be self-disciplined!
At the top of the virtual screen, there are eight eye-catching characters.

Below, there stood an illusory figure of Jiang Chen, who was 80% similar to him, but more refined than him. The character modeling was similar to that in online games, and there were lines of information and numbers next to the character.

"what?"

Jiang Chen was surprised and a little happy at the same time.

seem!

Do you suddenly have a system?
Is this a 30th birthday gift?
Jiang Chen sat down slowly, looked at the virtual screen panel carefully, and quickly got detailed information about the panel.

"It allows me to maintain a self-disciplined life, improve my physical fitness, and stay healthy. At the same time, I can get some random small prizes every day of self-discipline. If I stick to self-discipline for a week, I can get a better prize. If I stick to self-discipline for a month, I can get a big prize. If I stick to self-discipline for a year, I can get a super big prize!"

"Ten years of self-discipline... the prize is unknown? What about twenty years of self-discipline? Thirty years?"

Jiang Chen sat in a chair and looked at the ranking match on the computer screen. He did not accept it and began to take a closer look at this system that suddenly appeared.

The name is "Stand on your own feet at thirty", start being self-disciplined!
It seemed as if it was tailor-made for Jiang Chen, who had just turned thirty years old.

Looking at his own attributes, Jiang Chen was not surprised.

He has been in good health since childhood, has good academic performance, and is full of energy, so his physical and mental fitness are above the average level of ordinary people.

But strength and agility are much below average!
Because he hasn't gone out for proper exercise for five or six years. The muscles in his arms have now turned into soft fat, and he has a little belly fat.

The most intense exercise every day is when I squeeze into the subway on my way to and from get off work.

As a programmer, it is normal to have intermediate programming skills, right?

I've taken so many music classes since elementary school, so it's normal for me to start singing, right?
He had studied guitar and piano for a year before, so he has some basic knowledge of these two instruments and can play some simple melodies. But now he has almost forgotten them. If he were suddenly given a guitar or a piano, he would not know where to start.

others……

Gone!
He has no talent, just an ordinary person. Apart from his looks that resemble Daniel Wu, everything else is ordinary.

Even though he is already middle-aged and greasy, his hairline has risen, and he has a small belly, he still has a charm of 6.6, which is higher than that of ordinary people.

"Please claim your login reward!"

A prompt message appears.

Jiang Chen seemed to see the style of a pay-to-win online game, where the Dragon Slaying Sword is given away for free upon first login...

Recite silently in your heart and receive it.

"Obtain a song from a parallel world."

No more…?

Jiang Chen thought he would instantly get a lot of fancy but actually useless things!
In the end, just one song?

Songs from a parallel universe?
As Jiang Chen was thinking, the information of a song called Ideal Thirty immediately appeared in his mind, as if this was his own memory.

The lyrics, music, arrangement, singing details, techniques, emotional control, etc. are all in my mind.

"Ideal for thirty, song for thirty. Isn't this who I am now?"

Jiang Chen felt somewhat emotional again.

I feel like this song was tailor-made for me.

I looked up at the rooftop - who is spying on me?

Jiang Chen stroked his chin, feeling more hopeful and excited about life, and murmured in a low voice, "Start being self-disciplined now?"

“Self-discipline starts with sleep.”

"Please wash up and go to bed immediately."

Jiang Chen saw these two lines of prompt messages appear on the system panel again, telling him to go to bed immediately.

"Then go to sleep!"

Jiang Chen turned off the computer, then fell back on the single bed that was only one meter wide, closed his eyes and fell asleep.

"Please wash up and go to bed!"

Jiang Chen saw that there was still a line of prompt information on the panel, and couldn't help but wonder: "I'm sleeping!"

"Please wash up and go to bed!"

Seeing the new sentence in the prompt message, Jiang Chen understood: "Oh, you have to wash up before going to bed. Got it, you should have said it earlier! I haven't brushed my teeth at night for several years."

After living as a stay-at-home for several years, Jiang Chen developed a habit of falling asleep as soon as he felt sleepy. Now he has to change this and he is still a little uncomfortable.

Jiang Chen got up again and went to the small bathroom. He picked up a cup and filled it with water. He squeezed toothpaste onto the toothbrush and brushed his teeth. He finished brushing his teeth in less than a minute. Then he lay back on the bed, closed his eyes and went to sleep.

It had been a long time since he went to bed at twelve o'clock, and Jiang Chen doubted whether he could fall asleep.

However, the reminder message appeared again: "Please wash, rinse, and go to bed!"

Jiang Chen looked at the new message prompt and was very surprised and confused: "I washed up!"

"Please wash, rinse, and go to bed!"

The system message was repeated again.

Jiang Chen looked at the punctuation carefully, thought about it, and finally understood: "Oh, I see. Brushing my teeth can only be considered as rinsing. I haven't washed my face yet, so washing and rinsing are not complete? It's so troublesome. I never wash my face before going to bed."

The system did not reply to the message.

Jiang Chen could only try it himself. He got up again, went back to the small bathroom, turned on the faucet, scooped a handful of cold water and rubbed it on his face, wiped it dry with a towel, then lay back on the bed, closed his eyes and went to sleep.

Is the washing done now?

"Please wash, rinse, and go to bed."

However, the system message appeared in front of him again. Jiang Chen frowned: "Not finished yet? Give me a hint, haven't I already washed up?"

The prompt message appears again.

“At 30, start being self-disciplined!”

"Please maintain a regular life and good living habits every day."

"Good living habits include taking a bath, washing your face, brushing your teeth, going to bed early, getting up early, exercising moderately, eating and drinking on time, etc."

"Please use professional toiletries and wash yourself carefully."

This time there was more information to explain.

Jiang Chen understood immediately: "Professional bath products to wash carefully? And I also need to use facial cleanser to wash my face? Wait, bath products... do you want me to take a bath before going to bed?"

It is autumn in Shanghai now and it is not that hot anymore. Jiang Chen likes to be lazy whenever he can, so taking a bath once every two days is considered diligent. If it is winter, taking a bath once every three to five days is normal.

I never have the habit of taking a bath before going to bed.

However, since the system has made suggestions with good intentions.

Jiang Chen should just accept it mercifully.

Jiang Chen got up again and went to the bathroom for the third time. He looked at his greasy face in the mirror, cheered himself up, turned on the hot water, and started taking a shower!
After taking a ten-minute shower, I washed my face thoroughly with the facial cleanser I had bought three years ago and had not yet finished using it.

Jiang Chen looked at himself in the mirror again. His skin had become whiter and less greasy. He looked much more refreshed and pleasing to the eye. His facial features were still handsome, but he no longer looked as sunny and cheerful as before.

Self-discipline, start now!
Jiang Chen no longer resisted the system's recommended washing method and decided to wash himself carefully every day.

He already has a good foundation in appearance, and if he washes himself carefully, some of his charm will be revealed.

Who doesn't want to look good?
Who doesn’t want to be a teenager again?

Any mobile phone that doesn’t have a beauty function will go bankrupt immediately!

There are also a lot of internet celebrities and handsome guys on several major short video platforms, which has greatly improved the national appearance level, and the beauty function has played a vital role.

However, lying on the bed, Jiang Chen really couldn’t fall asleep for a while!

I haven’t gone to bed so early in many years!

I turned around and looked outside. It was past twelve o'clock and the lights were on in every house. Who would go to bed so early?
Isn’t the game fun?
Isn't the novel exciting enough?

Aren’t the girl’s black stockings in the short video long enough?

Isn’t trimming a donkey’s hoof enough to relieve stress?
Isn’t the Broken Sword Contest exciting enough?
Isn't Odebiao driving fast enough?
Isn't the music and watered-down beer at the bar enough to make you shiver?
Aren’t kebabs enough to make you drool?

Is the hot pot not spicy enough?

Life is so colorful, but I have to close my eyes and sleep?

However, for the sake of the system's self-discipline reward, Jiang Chen quickly stopped thinking about anything, closed his eyes, emptied his mind, and thought about nothing. After a while, he fell asleep in a daze.

Wake up from sleep.

Jiang Chen opened his eyes and looked at the sky outside. It seemed to be a sunny day. He picked up his phone to check the time. It was exactly seven o'clock.

Jiang Chen was getting ready to get up.

A reminder message appeared again: "Please maintain the good habit of getting eight hours of sleep every day."

Jiang Chen was stunned for a moment. It would be nice to have a nap.

I calculated the time and there was still an hour left. If I got up at eight o'clock, I would still have time to go to work, and then I closed my eyes and continued to sleep.

Get eight hours of sleep!

You haven't had this kind of enjoyment since you started elementary school, right?

Jiang Chen squinted his eyes and took a nap again. When he opened his eyes again, he was stung by a ray of sunlight. He sat up instantly and looked at his mobile phone. It was already nine o'clock!
He hadn't had a nap for a long time, and he overslept.

And his working hours are exactly nine o'clock!
It takes at least an hour to get to the company from here.

Be at least an hour late.

Jiang Chen thought about asking for leave from his boss last night, and immediately took out his phone to check the message. He found that his boss had sent him a private message, but it was not to approve the leave. The message made him nervous.

There is absolutely no good thing in sending messages alone like this.

"Xiao Jiang, come over tomorrow. I have something to discuss with you."

When Jiang Chen saw this information, he immediately thought of his colleagues who had been laid off by the company in the past six months.

I just turned 30 and I’m already facing a midlife crisis?

Jiang Chen knew that if he left this company, it would be very difficult to find a better job.

In addition, the national economic environment has not been good in the past two years, and good positions in large companies are all filled to the brim.

Perhaps, it’s time to prepare to leave the Magic City.

Jiang Chen felt heavy-hearted and sent a message to his boss on his phone: "I overslept, I'm coming over now!"

Then, I started to wash up and get ready to go to work.

"Maintaining a good habit of getting up early and washing up is beneficial to physical and mental health."

A line of information prompts appeared in front of Jiang Chen.

Jiang Chen was speechless for a moment. He wanted to rush to the company immediately.

There is no other way now...

Take a shower!
After sitting on the toilet for a while to clear his body, Jiang Chen immediately started to take a shower.

Take a shower, wash your face, and brush your teeth!

The three operations took less than fifteen minutes.

Jiang Chen was dressed neatly in a casual suit with a white shirt underneath. Standing in front of the mirror, he looked respectable, and one could vaguely see the high-spirited look he had when he was in school.

"Not bad!"

Jiang Chen was quite satisfied with himself, nodded, then opened the door and walked out.

The other tenants next door have already left for work.

Jiang Chen quickly went downstairs and hurried towards the subway station.

"Please maintain a good breakfast habit. A day's plan begins in the morning, and the body needs the nutrients of breakfast to stay healthy."

A line of prompt information appears again.

Jiang Chen touched his stomach and found that he was indeed hungry, so he immediately stopped and bought breakfast at a roadside breakfast shop.

Tea eggs, soy milk, and two vegetarian buns.

While eating, we walked towards the subway station.
