The Fairy-Like Beauty and Her Crafty Nerd Boyfriend

Chen Mo, an overworked office drone who died suddenly, is reborn. This time, he decides to follow the ultimate lazy-person creed: buy a house early to achieve financial freedom, then lie flat, slack off, and enjoy life!

But little mishaps keep cropping up in his thoroughly “ordinary” life of laziness. Sometimes he gets possessed by a quirky DIY genius and builds useless but impressive gadgets for his own amusement.
