Synopsis: Li Rui had practiced martial arts for years. She joined the national youth martial arts team at eleven, won multiple awards at international martial arts championships, and opened a martial arts school after retiring from the team. By chance, she transmigrated into the body of an infamous, scheming celebrity in the entertainment industry who happened to share her name. What? Two popular male stars had actually fought over her, both ending up at the police station? Overnight, she was boycotted across the internet, all her brand endorsement deals were canceled, and she was facing more than seventy million in astronomical compensation claims? Owe money? Then pay it back! Li Rui became a revolutionary brick, going wherever the money was to be made. A publicity stunt for a variety show to boost a celebrity's profile, a tool for breaking up couples on a dating show, or the most exhausted wire-fu stunt double on a film or TV set: as long as it paid enough to repay her debts, she was willing to do it all. The entertainment industry's notorious schemer, with countless "scandals" to her name, transformed into a money-making machine without a trace of emotion. The daily question: Have I paid off my debts yet? Can I leave the entertainment industry today? One day, Li Rui noticed that the people around her were looking at her differently. Everyone was crying and shouting, "Sis, you're killing me!" Li Rui: I'm out! This circle is way too messy. I'm quitting! Shen Ziqian, a nationally renowned author, was having a meal in a restaurant when a glamorous actress at the next table, who looked familiar, gave him a peculiar look. When he went to pay after finishing his meal, the server told him, "Miss Li Rui has already paid your bill." Several days later, Shen Ziqian finally remembered. Miss Li Rui? Wasn't she the actress who had misread the title of his book? Film Emperor Fu Jue had kept a low profile for years, with only his studio account occasionally posting updates about his whereabouts. One day, the internet's most mysterious celebrity finally opened a Weibo account. He posted a photo of himself with a famous "scheming tea" actress and wrote, "Another day of being protected." Next book: Raising a Child as a Laid-Off Woman in the Nineties. Please add it to your favorites! Zhong Hui had lived alone for decades before dying in an accident. Before she died, she looked back on her life. She had been a textbook case of someone who was dealt a great hand and played it terribly. When she was young, she had been a celebrated cotton mill worker, one of the "Four Golden Flowers" at the state-owned cotton mill. She had secretly fallen for Jiang Sheng, a handsome, tall electrician at the same factory. When he was heartbroken, she took the initiative to show him kindness. Before long, Zhong Hui was pregnant, and the two quickly married. After they married, Jiang Sheng went into business and became rich. Zhong Hui had quit her job before the state-owned cotton mill closed down and become a full-time housewife, never experiencing the hardship of being laid off. Everyone said she was "lucky," but only Zhong Hui knew that her marriage to Jiang Sheng had been a joke from the very beginning. Jiang Sheng had loved his idealized first love from start to finish. He had married her simply to prove a point. No matter how wholeheartedly she cared for him, or how attentive and thoughtful she was, all she got in return was his disgust and resentment. To her, Jiang Sheng was like a stone that would never warm up. Her biological parents were angry that she had gotten pregnant before marriage, while her parents-in-law and sister-in-law looked down on her for it even more. Her only daughter, Hehe, dropped out of school after graduating from junior high and fell in with a gang of unruly girls. In the end, someone accidentally stabbed her to death. She was only sixteen when she died. By the end of her life, Zhong Hui was left all alone. As she lay on the cold floor, countless scenes flashed through her mind. If there was a next life, she definitely wouldn't live this way again. When she opened her eyes, Zhong Hui had returned to the year she was twenty-eight. Her daughter was still in first grade, and the baby in her belly was fine. She hadn't miscarried yet. Jiang Sheng brought her divorce papers and asked for a divorce. Without a word, Zhong Hui signed her name. In this life, she only wanted to be a good mother and raise her two children into a better life. A stone that won't warm up is better thrown away. Theme: Pay back what you owe and keep striving for yourself.
