Lin Yue was an ordinary employee at a private company who worked her way up from a blue-collar job to a white-collar one. She thought life would only get better, but after marriage, she found herself trapped in a nightmare. Every household responsibility fell on her. Her husband took no interest in family life, while the crying child and endless housework left her exhausted. Finally, one busy night, Lin Yue collapsed in the kitchen and never woke up.
Yet Lin Yue was reborn, back at the time when she had just become a white-collar worker. Remembering the misery of her previous life, she vowed not to marry or have children this time, and to live for herself. She devoted herself to her career, no longer compromising to please others. When faced with unreasonable demands at work, she bravely said no, and spent her free time learning new skills to improve herself.
A man who had once pursued her reappeared and professed his love, promising her a happy life. Lin Yue smiled and turned him down, fully aware of the risks that came with marriage. As time passed, she thrived at work and built a small team of her own, living a financially independent and carefree life. She sometimes felt lonely, but compared with the exhaustion and despair of her previous life, this loneliness felt more like a pleasure.
Lin Yue ultimately lived out her life alone, but a satisfied smile never left her face. Her life showed that there are many paths to choose from, and that even without marriage or children, a person can still live a brilliant life of their own.
