[System + Real Heiress Fighting to Survive + Male Lead Can Read Minds + Female Official's Rise]
[The heroine loves food and money. She may be rather laid-back at first, but later she'll charge ahead and rise to the top.]
Her life is ticking away, so Lin Yunshu binds herself to a life-extending System. But her missions are to win over:
A cool and aloof gentleman who has a -30 affection rating toward her!
The ruthless crown prince, a living King of Hell who can read minds!
And... her sworn enemy!
Everyone mocks the real heiress of the Marquis of Ningyuan's household as a country bumpkin. Her father doesn't care for her, her mother doesn't love her, and even her own brother thinks she's uncouth.
But no one expects her to stun the entire court with her skills. She dazzles at the palace banquet, takes first place in the mathematics exam, and joins the Ministry of Revenue to sort out its chaotic accounts. She rises all the way to become the most eye-catching female official in the Great Ze Dynasty!
System 007 watches this laid-back slacker rise to the top, utterly dumbfounded!
Who would have thought she'd work herself into a powerhouse just to stay alive...
One day, System 007 cries out in a trembling voice, “Host! Our target, Crown Prince Xiao Jingyuan, can hear our thoughts!”
Lin Yunshu's hand jerks, sending her abacus beads clattering to the floor. “He heard me call him a living King of Hell, say he isn't worth two hundred steamed buns, and complain that he's no match for Xie Yanzhi?!”
After a moment of dead silence, she suddenly curls her lips into a smile. “Actually, I have a secret too...”
System 007 is still reeling when it shrieks, “Host, you are such a good actor!”
