[Upcoming: The Whole World Is Worshipping Me. If you're interested, check it out in my author column!]
After countless transmigration-into-a-book missions, Lu Zhizhi finally saved enough points to redeem a chance to be reborn. She could return to the twenty-year-old self whose life was full of regrets.
As a reward, the System told her that she would retain all the skills she had learned while transmigrating into books, but lose all her memories of those experiences.
At twenty, Lu Zhizhi was not doing well. Poor, forced to drop out of school, overweight, and plagued by bad skin, she lived through the worst days of her life at the age when she should have been shining brightest.
But one day, Lu Zhizhi suddenly discovered that something about her had changed.
For example, although she had never so much as touched a paintbrush, she could pick one up and casually sketch out a beautiful line drawing. When she posted it online, people offered her five-figure sums to commission artwork.
For example, although she had been living on takeout and instant noodles, she suddenly mastered the art of cooking. Her food was unbelievably delicious, healthy, and nourishing. After eating it for a month, her terrible skin became fair and translucent, and she was transformed, as if she had undergone plastic surgery.
And for another example, although she had never been in a fight and was weak as a kitten, when she ran into her sleazy boyfriend with bad intentions, one kick sent him flying two meters away.
Faced with all these changes, Lu Zhizhi was bewildered, confused, and at a loss.
After she cured her terrible skin, Lu Zhizhi was discovered by a talent scout because of her looks and brought into the entertainment industry.
Her agent asked her, "Singing, dancing, acting. What can you do?"
Lu Zhizhi: "I, I can't do any of them."
Everyone: "Oh, she's a useless pretty face."
Her agent sent her to the practice room for training.
In the dance studio, Lu Zhizhi insisted she had no experience, but she learned the routine after seeing it once. Splits, backbends, high kicks, all sorts of difficult moves: she performed them with greater ease and precision than the instructor.
The instructor was bewildered: Who am I? Where am I? What happened to being a beginner?
Lu Zhizhi was even more bewildered: Who am I? Where am I? How can I do all this?
Later, Lu Zhizhi discovered it wasn't just dancing. She was proficient in singing, acting, piano, guitar, calligraphy, sports... She had so many skills it was frightening.
Everyone thought she would become a huge star in the entertainment industry by relying on these respectable talents.
She did become famous, but it was for some very strange skills.
One moment, she was walking the red carpet in a red dress and smoky eye makeup; the next, she was treating a glamorous banquet like an all-you-can-eat buffet, stuffing herself until she was full without smudging her lipstick.
She claimed every day that she was a coward, yet turned around and performed acts of bravery: chasing down thieves in busy streets, dropping from the sky to knock out kidnappers, and boosting her public profile by making the news.
When Lu Zhizhi appeared on the trending charts for the nnnth time after showing off some bizarre skill, everyone finally lost patience: What the hell are all your hidden talents?!
Lu Zhizhi trembled: I, I don't know either. QAQ
Upcoming novel: The Whole World Is Worshipping Me
[When a cultivation-world powerhouse descends upon modern society, everyone discovers that modern technology is nothing compared to cultivation.]
Ye Xingchen spent a hundred years studying hard in the cultivation world, finally maxing out her skills in alchemy, artifact crafting, talismans, formations, and more.
But before she could make money and spend it, she suddenly transmigrated to a strange world.
After being poor for hundreds of years, all Ye Xingchen wanted in this strange new world was to make money.
But as she went about earning money, she noticed that people around her were always looking at her with respectful, admiring, tearful, and strangely fervent eyes.
Ye Xingchen: ???
*
When her father was gravely ill, her mother had given up hope, and the doctor told her to prepare for the worst, Ye Xingchen said:
"A terminal illness? You mean the one that can be cured with half a Marrow-Cleansing Pill?"
When foreigners showed off their lithography machine to her, Ye Xingchen said:
"How can you bring out such a crude, clunky machine and expect anyone to be impressed?"
Then she produced cultivation-style mechs, computers, and spaceships.
When Ye Xingchen had single-handedly turned her country into the world's greatest nation, with millions looking up to her, she herself said, "Global icon? National treasure? No, no. I'm Ye Xingchen, an utterly ordinary little genius at making money."
Theme: With a million skills at your disposal, you can go anywhere without fear.
If you don't want to write anymore, you can just stop and write it again when you feel inspired. It's finished in such a hurry, and you only wrote so much about such an awesome setting... It feels like you laid a very deep foundation and thought you were going to build a 100-story commercial building, but you ended up building a three-story small house? The gap is really big
I finished reading their lives in one afternoon, and I was a little dazed.
It turned out that it had been restarted dozens of times. I thought this was the first and only restart.
Agree, agree, come on, tell the truth, your family can handle it on their own. It would be really embarrassing if it makes trouble in front of his partner.
Not bad, but it ended too quickly
It's a bit simplistic, this ending.
Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo short
It's totally unreadable. I like this article and the heroine's character very much. Spread the flowers.
The ending is rather hasty, the article is too short, not enough to read.

It looks good, but a little short.
