After Becoming Huang Ling, I Worked Like a Pack Mule in A Place Called Xiaoxiang

A Little Alley fanfic + major rewrite + period drama + slice of life + a little comeuppance + food

In 2025, Huang Ling, a corporate drone, worked overtime at the company for a whole week straight. Then, on the day she was supposed to collect her paycheck, she suddenly died at work.

When she woke up, she found herself in a cramped room with two skinny kids calling her Mom. She asked their names and learned they were Zhuang Tunan and Zhuang Xiaoting. Oh no, the sky had fallen. It had really fallen.

She was only 26! She’d never dated or gotten married. What was going on? Sure, her name was Huang Ling, but how had she ended up married with kids? She was always joking that if she ever transmigrated, she’d make it big, but she really had just been talking nonsense.

Heavens, please help me tell right from wrong. I’m really not cut out for transmigrating!

I can cook, and that’s about it. I graduated from a vocational college and didn’t even get a bachelor’s degree. I don’t know how to do anything else.

Well, I’m here now, so I’ll make the best of it. I don’t have the guts to slit my own throat, either.

System, dear System, please! Chaos Pearl, whoever you are, save this poor girl’s life! A century later: Ding! Your Food System is online. Stupid humans, here I come!

Hang on, why is this System so weird? Whatever, let’s just get through this together. I don’t want to die. I want to live, and I want to live happily.

I’ve gotten promoted, too. Back in the modern world I was a little corporate drone, and after transmigrating I’m a big corporate drone. So what? Who’s afraid of whom? I don’t know if anyone’s afraid of me, but I’m not afraid.

I really can’t write any more. I’m no good at blurbs, so please head to the main story.
