Lin Xiaotang, a three-time Golden Rooster Best Actress, wakes up in a novel set in a bygone era as a pitiful girl unloved by her parents.
Her grandmother takes her wages, her younger sister steals her opportunities, and her whole family treats her like she doesn't exist.
She doesn't want to fight or make a scene. She just wants to live in peace.
But the System binds itself to her and hands her a [Delicate Little White Flower] character card.
"Are you going to play the part?"
Lin Xiaotang looks at her reflection and smiles. "Sure. I'm best at playing someone else."
From then on, the textile mill has a new "most miserable worker":
She cries at work, cries after work, cries while eating, cries while walking, until everyone at the mill knows the Lin family mistreats their granddaughter.
The neighborhood committee summons her grandmother for a talk, the neighbors shame her sister, and the whole family becomes a laughingstock.
Until one day, she stops crying.
Her whole family kneels and begs her: "Please, can you act normal for once?"
She wipes away her tears, her gaze sharp.
"You should've said so sooner. I'm done acting."
