Her family treats her very well after finding her. 🌸The second book features a female lead who returns to China to conduct scientific research. She brings back a lot of supplies to donate and also finds her parents. Her family is also very kind to her and never gives up searching for her.

    The female lead's character is fantastic! The "ruthless rich man" system quest is also refreshing. I love her personality and her inner thoughts when facing money and human nature, and Su Ning's vitality in this other world. The female lead is decisive and ruthless, striking when necessary, flaunting her wealth while also seeking power—truly a worthy protagonist of a satisfying novel! [Thumbs up][Thumbs up][Admiration]
