Su Wangzhi transmigrates into a parallel world and gets bound to a life-extending System from the start. She has to raise the gloomy villain Lu Zhi’s affection to 100 points to earn another ten years of life.
In her previous life, she was a decisive investment banking executive. This time, she treats raising his affection like a KPI: when he’s cornered and beaten in an alley, she charges into the crowd with a baseball bat and tosses him a handkerchief to wipe away the blood, her voice perfectly calm. When he can’t afford tuition and the school gives him a hard time, she slaps her black card down on the academic affairs office desk and says only, “From now on, I’ll take responsibility for Lu Zhi.”
Everyone thinks Su Wangzhi has lost her mind, trying to warm a block of ice that can never thaw. Only Lu Zhi knows the truth: he returned with memories of his previous life, when the Su family ground him into the dirt and he died on a freezing, rainy night.
He came back to claim her life, but watching the young lady suddenly change her ways, he has a change of heart.
Later, once his affection reaches the maximum, the System chimes to announce the mission is complete. That very night, Su Wangzhi packs her things, ready to cut ties with him.
But Lu Zhi, eyes red, corners her in the hallway. He grips her wrist and buries his face against her neck, his voice hoarse and trembling. “You finished your mission, so now you’re going to throw me away?”
“Su Wangzhi, I gave you my life a long time ago. If you dare leave, I’m capable of anything.”
