Luckily, she's bound to a Bankruptcy System. If she spends the System's budget and declares bankruptcy, she can go back to being an idle rich kid.
Lin Mu perks right up: How hard can that be? All I have to do is spend money!
It's an essential skill for a rich kid like me!

To spend money, Lin Mu deliberately pays a fortune to sign an over-the-hill actress from a veteran talent agency. She also turns down the actress's request to appear on a variety show, and instead spends big to put her in a bit part in a movie that can't even attract investors.
Lin Mu: “Don't do anything you don't like just to repay me. If you love acting, then keep acting!”
As it turns out, the actress's breathtaking over-the-shoulder glance goes viral, and she makes a stunning comeback!
To spend money, Lin Mu deliberately unblocks all the social media accounts of a celebrity who's been universally attacked online. She even pays for a Weibo VIP membership, convinced the celebrity can talk her way into getting herself canceled again.
Lin Mu: “Our company doesn't care about any of that nonsense. Say whatever you want. I've got your back!”
As it turns out, the celebrity, now free from the fear of getting banned, lets loose and switches to running a gossip account that spills major industry secrets. Her popularity soon rivals that of a top-tier star.
To spend money, Lin Mu deliberately invests in a batch of scripts that look sure to flop, even doubling the production budgets.
Lin Mu: “Don't worry about the budget. If you need more, just submit a request to me!”
As it turns out, with plenty of funding, the director delivers the performance of a lifetime. The film wins several awards and becomes a huge hit both at home and abroad.
Later, Lin Mu is given titles like “the most conscientious boss in a century,” “a talent scout with a keen eye,” and “an investment genius.” When a reporter interviews her, she sheds a tear of pain and says, “But all I wanted at the start was to go bankrupt!”
