As an ordinary 996 wage slave, Ji Xianyin achieved the highest honor a wage slave can hope for one late night.
She worked herself to death while working overtime at home, then got intercepted and bound by a Infrastructure System on her way to the underworld. It shoved her into a Mary Sue novel she'd once read, where she became an utterly unremarkable cannon-fodder supporting female character who was about to inherit a doomed entertainment agency.
Everything seemed to follow the usual transmigrate-into-a-book plot, except the System she'd been bound to was far too familiar with her.
In short: it was a pain in the neck!
No sleeping in. Make your own bed.
No takeout. Learn to cook.
No ice water. Drink tea that's hot enough to burn your mouth.
No showing your legs during a spring cold snap.
No going out in summer without sunscreen.
Wear long underwear in autumn, when the temperature swings between day and night.
And even in winter, the System won't let her leave until she's bundled up like a ball.
Ji Xianyin: Stop yelling. You're not my mom.
System (with a menacing look): Looking for a beating? I am your mom!

Years later, when reporters interview Ji Xianyin, who has already conquered the entertainment industry at a young age, one of them asks her:
Everyone says you're blessed with the luck of a koi, and that everything goes smoothly for you. What do you think of that? Is there anything you'd like to say to the audience?
President Ji takes a sip of red bean and coix seed tea from her thermos and sighs. Listen to your mother. You can't go wrong.
Her habit of getting up early made her miss the chain-reaction crash during rush hour on her way to sign a contract, and she arrived at the signing ahead of her competitors. Learning to cook helped her avoid the mass food poisoning that hit the crew when she visited a set, and she even happened to pick up a boyfriend.
No, wait. That was her husband, whom she'd long since forgotten about and assumed was dead.
As for the rest, do you know how important good health is to married life?
Please note:
1. Marriage first, love later. One-on-one, both leads are sexually inexperienced. Plot-driven. The male lead may show up very... very late.
2. A silly story for relaxing. Don't take it too seriously, and please be gentle.
3. Inspired by my dear mom, who always bickers with me whenever she calls. Let me thank her in advance~
4. An entertainment-industry story about building things up, creating a wholesome entertainment industry. An'an really loves this theme.
Theme: Building a wholesome entertainment industry.
