While others transmigrate into a book and become the apple of everyone's eye, Jiang Nanqiu starts with a busted head and a whole package deal: a forty-year-old widower and his kids.
A young lady from the apocalypse isn't going to put up with this!
On the spot, she shows off her signature move, "dislocating joints by faking an accident," and sends her awful eldest aunt and her family off to an all-inclusive labor reform camp in the far northwest.
She heads to a rural island to find her younger brother, and a fishing System comes with her. But its style is downright ridiculous:
[Ding! You caught a top-grade wild yellow croaker. Reward: points, plus one "Do You Think I Believe That?" lucky draw!]
Fine, you live off the sea. She quietly makes a fortune with her pocket dimension.
Her scumbag ex tries to freeze her out? She applies for a little house of her own and shuts the door to devour a giant lobster!
It isn't until one day, when an old educated youth shares some gossip, that she suddenly realizes:
The scumbag in front of her was the devoted male supporting character in a period novel, while her naturally strong "silly sweetheart" of a younger brother, who loves courting disaster, is actually the book's world-destroying villain?
Jiang Nanqiu silently picks up a huge piece of garlic-butter abalone and stuffs it into her brother's mouth:
"Eat more seafood and stay out of trouble. Listen to your big sister, got it?"
The villainous little brother chews his abalone and nods without hesitation:
"Mmm! I'll listen to you, Sis. Whatever it is, I'll do what you say!"
