Synopsis

[Workplace + Family + Romance + A Woman’s Growth]

Gu Xi was an abandoned baby, raised by her grandmother, who was not related to her by blood. Later, her adoptive mother cursed her as a bringer of bad luck to her father, and her cousin stole her identity to take out loans in her name. It was only when her true family showed their love that she understood: taking good care of herself was the best way to repay their affection.

At work, she stumbled into a pyramid scheme and narrowly escaped sexual assault. After joining Hualu, she faced workplace bullying, unequal pay for equal work, and the embezzlement of her shares. Yet she turned the tables, rising from office clerk to senior executive.

Later, someone with ulterior motives exposed her secret relationship, and her boyfriend’s ex-wife showed up to make trouble. Forced to resign, she faced the challenges of finding a job as an unmarried woman past her prime, but ultimately succeeded in starting her own business.

She has no golden finger and needs no one to save her. Nor does she rely on her natural beauty to take an easier path.

She remains kind without being weak, resilient and wise, and truly builds a happy life for herself through her own efforts.

Any Novels Where the Protagonist Grows Step by Step?

I’d prefer a longer main storyline, not a brainless power fantasy where the protagonist steamrolls everyone. Something like Soul Land or Battle Through the Heavens, but any genre is fine.

Realistic Romance Novels, No CEOs or the Like

Angsty youth novels are fine too, like Fu Shouer's "Youth Is a Hasty Book".

Does Tomato Really Have No Real Strong Female-Led Novels?!

I want a career-focused, steadily leveling-up female lead who's strong enough to crush everyone. Why does the male lead have to be stronger than her in a strong female lead story??? If male-oriented novels can have a male lead focused on his career with beautiful women flocking around him, why can't a female-oriented novel have a female lead focused on getting stronger, with handsome men throwing themselves at her?
