After working herself to death, workaholic Lin Xi transmigrated into a book as Gu Yechen’s high-maintenance wife, married to the movie star for convenience.
According to the plot, he would grow to despise her, divorce her, and leave her the laughingstock of showbiz.
Lin Xi was ecstatic: at last, she could lie flat and enjoy the wealth of a prestigious family!
Who could have guessed that the Happiness System would force its way into her life, making her raise her movie-star husband’s happiness score from -100 to a perfect score?
It was a live broadcast from the start, and while the whole internet mocked her, the System assigned a suicidal task: ask on camera whether the prenup included health insurance and a pension!
To save her own skin, Lin Xi had no choice but to play along.
Holding hands, hugging, sleeping in the same bed... The System’s KPIs kept piling up.
She thought she was dancing recklessly through the landmines surrounding the aloof movie star, just waiting to be thrown out of the mansion.
Then, during a variety show, darkness fell. The elegant, distant man clasped her hand tightly in front of the cameras and whispered in her ear, “Don’t let go.”
Later, the entire entertainment industry noticed that Movie Star Gu had changed.
He ate shrimp dumplings she fed him, carried her on his back as they strolled along the deck at sunset, and even paid half a million as an “advance” to buy the adorably ugly chibi drawings she made of him.
When Lin Xi saw the happiness score on the System panel break a hundred and prepared to retire in triumph and enjoy her golden years, Gu Yechen cornered her against the wall, his gaze intense.
“The contract has been renewed, for life. Where do you think you’re going, my long-term meal ticket?”
