(This story is entirely fictional!)
Tang Xiao had just gotten out of prison. With nowhere in particular to go, she wandered to the entrance of an alley and crouched against the wall.
Every so often, she examined her hands and made a series of gestures at the air!
Then she would cock her head and listen for a System notification!
Passersby shook their heads and sighed. “What a pity. Such a lovely young woman, and she’s a fool!”
Tang Xiao was focused on trying to connect with the System and didn’t notice how strange her behavior looked to everyone else.
Once she accepted that she really was the most miserable transmigrator in history, she gave up hope.
With a look of utter despair, she plopped down on the ground, showing not the slightest trace of a lady’s decorum.
“Heavens, you’re being way too cruel! Apart from half a face falling off a cliff in the original owner’s last moments, you didn’t let me know a single thing! You could at least have left me some money! I finally got to transmigrate, and I’m still a pauper. What’s the point of transmigrating like this...”
As Tang Xiao silently lamented the unfairness of fate, a woman noticed her strange behavior at the entrance to the alley and slowly walked over.
Clink, clink, clink...
A few crisp coins landed neatly in the chipped bowl in front of Tang Xiao.
Not bad, very beautiful
