Synopsis
Su Wan, a modern finance whiz, transmigrates into a book and becomes the vicious supporting character who failed to drug a battle-hardened prince. From the start, she’s on the highest difficulty setting.
No matter. The Knowledge-to-Cash System will take care of it.
Drugging and framing someone? She lays out the full chain of evidence, with airtight timelines, witnesses, and physical proof, more rigorous than a courtroom case. The capital’s noblewomen try to ostracize her? She opens a members-only pastry shop and rakes in five hundred taels in three days, using scarcity marketing to leave even the princess consorts at a loss. They accuse her of bewitching people with sorcery? She opens her books in front of the emperor and invites an independent audit. The emperor is delighted and bestows a plaque naming her “The Capital’s Top Merchant.”
First, her System gives her a golden finger; then there’s the reborn prince who keeps loitering outside her shop every day. He claims he’s “keeping an eye on her,” but buys out the most expensive pastries every time.
Su Wan: “System, stop raising his affection score. I want business skills!”
Xiao Yan, finally seeing the truth after being reborn: “I was blind in my past life. In this one, wait, why is she reading financial reports again? I haven’t even confessed yet!”
When the chancellor’s plot finally comes to light, Su Wan calmly pieces it together. “The person behind your death in your past life was connected to Lin Chuchu’s godfather.” Xiao Yan falls silent for a long time. “So while you were trying to save yourself in my past life, I was handing the enemy a weapon?”
Su Wan pats his shoulder. “Don’t cry. Let’s go get the weapon back together.”
There are not many words, so it is suitable to be read in one or two days. Unlike a long novel, which requires staying up late at night and affecting your rest.
