Su Wan transmigrated into a tragic romance novel as the vicious ex-girlfriend. Severely socially anxious, she was forced by the System to deliberately provoke the wealthy tycoon Lu Huaizhou to his face and rack up 100,000 points for her death wish so she could take the money and run.
She gritted her teeth and shamelessly demanded money, acting cocky while inwardly begging him to get angry and send her home. But after a car accident, Lu Huaizhou awakened the ability to read snippets of people's thoughts. He made a point of tuning in whenever her emotions boiled over, hearing most of her complaints, then said with an amused smile, "Keep acting. I like watching." Su Wan was dumbfounded.
Even more absurdly, the day she reached 100,000 points, the System's shop opened. A pass back to her original world cost 200,000, and beneath it was a 30-million-point card that could reverse cause and effect, with a memory-erasure card thrown in. Lu Huaizhou pushed the card back to her. "You can leave, but you can't use this."
So she kept doing missions while he had her back: when she called him fat, he arranged health checks for the executives; when she threw down a ring, he sold out the entire new collection; when she called him stingy, he upgraded the cafeteria; when she praised him in public, his ears turned red. The more she did her death-wish missions, the more it felt like they were dating. And the more she counted down to her escape, the less she wanted to go.
"Boss, please get mad! Don't fall for me! I just want the money so I can go home and lie flat!"
Lu Huaizhou pushed a bank card and a necklace toward her. "Fine. Come run these five kilometers with me first."
