Jin Li considered herself a completely honest person.
She went to school honestly, studied honestly, and honestly took the civil service exam, perfectly following the plain and simple life of an honest person.
That was, until one day, she was bound to a System.
The best news ever: there wasn't just one System. They came one after another, in an endless queue!
The bad news: every last one was a crippled, half-broken System, more trouble than it was worth.
[Incomplete: Faithful Adaptation System]
[Incomplete: Priority Hiring for Those 35 and Older System]
[Incomplete: Absolute Truth System]
[Incomplete: Low-Profit Pricing System]
Honest Jin Li chose to strike honestly, and the whole internet exploded.
"They even recreated the screen patterns mentioned only in passing in the original, down to the last detail. What kind of god-tier production team is this?!"
"She was laid off at 38, and now she's landed a key position here?"
"She pointed out the product's flaws in front of the whole livestream audience. This boss really has guts!"
"She just posted the full cost breakdown. She only makes that much? Is she running a charity?"
At first, the onlookers laughed at her for having no connections and chasing traffic, waiting for her to fall from grace.
They waited and waited, until she became a top-tier star in every industry.
The whole internet started digging into her background and analyzing her business strategy, praising her as a breath of fresh air in the entertainment industry, a conscientious businesswoman, and a lone warrior standing up to unspoken rules.
Book fans trusted her, her employees respected her, and consumers believed in her. Jin Li had become a walking gold-standard brand.
Jin Li: Wait, a breath of fresh air in the entertainment industry? A conscientious businesswoman? A lone warrior? Ah... are they talking about me?
No, I just wanted to make some money! How did I become an industry-wide legend?!
The romance develops in the middle and later parts of the story. A cold-faced, adorable, innocent husband-type guy takes the lead. Both are each other's first and only.
