She takes a shortcut to work and hits a luxury car, then shows up late. She yawns during a meeting and gets caught by the boss. She walks in on her supervisor cheating and gets targeted for it...
To secure a permanent position, unlucky office worker Shi Lai has been holding it in so long she's practically giving herself breast hyperplasia! But whatever, she can vent online and rant about jerks with her gaming buddy! Maybe it's just her imagination, but the more she rants, the luckier she gets?!
Right after her landlord tells her to move out, she wins a year's use of a luxury apartment in an upscale neighborhood at the company year-end party!!!
The problem is, she can't afford the property management fee! So she lists it for sublet on a secondhand marketplace, planning to use the rent to get a smaller place and pocket the difference. Not a bad deal!
The next day, the assistant to the general manager smiles and tells her, "The property management fee, water, and electricity are all free~"
Moved by the company's thoughtful gesture, Shi Lai silently vows: From today on, the company is her home!
She makes a bet with her gaming buddy, and when she loses, the jerk tells her to buy coffee for the boss.
The next day, after bracing herself and completing the task, she walks out of the boss's office to find that the supervisor who used to make things difficult for her and the colleagues who gossiped about her are all panicking.
"Shi Lai has serious connections?"
"No wonder we've been seeing President Jing smiling like the spring breeze lately..."
"Huh? I once made her shred a hundred documents on purpose. I hope she doesn't hold a grudge!"
Seeing everyone's attitude change, Shi Lai gets it: When you're working for someone else, you decide your own status!
