[Journey to the West] I Need to Make Money, Not Fall in Love

[Dropped, Don't Read]

After the White Bone Spirit was beaten to death by Sun Wukong with a single blow, she was bound to a Wealth-Building System. Once she graduated, she returned to the moment before her death.

Looking at her mountain stronghold, where they could barely afford to put food on the table, White Bone angrily flung down the account book:

Isn't getting rich and living comfortably much better? Why eat Tang Monk's flesh!

While she worked hard to build her business, she happened to pick up a little kid.

As it turned out, the kid she brought home was a big shot from a rival mountain stronghold!

The very one whose business she'd stolen.

White Bone packed her things overnight, planning to flee the mountain and lie low for a while.

But damn, he was relentless!

She disguised herself as a young maiden, and that nemesis transformed into a handsome gentleman, picking up her handkerchief and giving her a gentle smile with lowered eyes.

White Bone: ...Silence is your brother's Water Curtain Cave.

Taking the lesson to heart, she transformed into an unremarkable little beggar boy. That nemesis turned into a kind-looking rich gentleman and generously tossed a huge gold nugget into her broken bowl.

White Bone: ...How are you all so rich?!

Grinding her teeth, White Bone transformed again, this time into Butcher Wang from the north of town. But that nemesis promptly transformed overnight into Xu, the flirtatious widow next door, and every day leaned one hand against her butcher shop, shamelessly flirting with her in front of everyone on the street.

White Bone: ...Damn it!

One day, she tried to run away again, but before she could take a single step out of the courtyard, the exceptionally handsome big shot caught her and dragged her back to his cave in the dead of night.

White Bone hadn't even had time to resolve to die rather than submit when she saw the cave filled with gold, silver, and jewels. The big shot bashfully told her they were all his betrothal gifts!

White Bone, who could never have too much money: How about giving this a try?

#As someone who gets rich for a living, I even make money while running away#
