On the first day after transmigrating into a book, Lin Zhaoyuan discovered she had a System for getting rich.
Whenever she spent money, the System covered the cost. Complete a spending task, and she'd get double the money back; fail a task, and the required spending would double.
Lin Zhaoyuan: ?
So while everyone else was fighting tooth and nail over divine artifacts and elixirs, struggling to snatch opportunities in secret realms, and brawling over medicinal herbs and magical treasures, Lin Zhaoyuan simply bought herself a mountain of heavenly treasures.
Medicinal herbs others couldn't buy even at a huge price were tossed around like candy by her. She used the Three Gods Whip, which others schemed desperately to obtain, to drive her carriage. Qilin blood and phoenix bones were nothing more than decorations to her.
Onlookers: ...Is this right?
A rogue cultivator: Boss, need an underling?
A certain sect: Would you like to come be sect leader for a while?
Lin Zhaoyuan glanced at the Dragon Proud Heaven male lead, who was still in his "childhood phase," and sighed with the air of a worldly sage.
In the original story, Dragon Proud Heaven was still relying on cheat abilities to make a comeback, act cool, and slap faces, leveling up as he fought one monster after another and endured countless trials.
But she had already reached the top of the pyramid, lonely as snow.
Lin Zhaoyuan: A fortune for nothing, all I have to do is open my eyes and spend. I'll never run out of money, no matter how much I spend.
What a headache. How should I spend today's spirit stones?

Ling Jiuxiao coolly wiped the blood from his sword, sprinkled bone-melting water over the corpses on the ground, and concealed his tracks. Only after making sure everything was in order did he head down the mountain.
But he had barely taken a few steps when he stopped.
A person... A person person person person person?? Where did this person come from??!
A woman lay unconscious on the ground, her life hanging by a thread. After much hesitation, Ling Jiuxiao carried her home, bandaged her wounds, wiped the dirt from her face with a handkerchief, and cared for her attentively.
When she woke up, she had lost her memory and could only say that her name was Lin Zhaoyuan.
She also tossed money around every chance she got.
Looking at the growing piles of heavenly treasures and magical jade in his wooden cabin, Ling Jiuxiao said, "...Miss, you really don't have to do this."
Lin Zhaoyuan ignored him. "I'm using your place to store this stuff. Use whatever you need, and throw it out if you don't like it."
Ling Jiuxiao: "..."
Then one day, Lin Zhaoyuan's eyes lit up as she looked him up and down. He felt a chill run through him under her gaze.
Lin Zhaoyuan nodded. "Excellent. The Dragon Proud Heaven protagonist, the most valuable person in this world."
Then, with a straight face, she dumped a pile of spirit stones on the ground. "You. I'm buying you."
Ling Jiuxiao: ?
She likes me.

A slightly chuuni, cold-faced heroine, and a male lead who thinks himself into a romance: a Dragon Proud Heaven type in public, a devoted husband at home.
