The Tragic Novel Heroine Gave Up and Became Famous

Blurb:

Overworked office drone Song Caicai worked from dawn till dusk for the capitalists, determined to be a useful member of society. In the end, she worked herself to death.

Then she transmigrated into the heroine of an old-school domineering-CEO melodrama.

System: "You must give it 120 percent, reach the top of the entertainment industry, and make the male lead weep as he chases you to win you back!"

Song Caicai flopped down like a salted fish: No more grinding. I can't do it.

Given another chance at life, Song Caicai is willing to make any effort for her own survival, except going to bed early, getting up early, or being a useful member of society.

So netizens watched as that troublemaking, scandal-plagued fake sweetheart of an entertainer suddenly gave up trying.

When other guests on a show passionately encouraged young people to be useful members of society, proclaiming, "The world has a use for everyone!"

Song Caicai said, "If I can avoid being useful, I will."

What do celebrities do on their days off?

Other entertainers do yoga, read books, or cook.

Song Caicai: A cup of tea, a pack of cigarettes, and gaming all day while cursing up a storm.

Song Caicai's dream: Retire, live out her days, and collect rent.

Song Caicai's three favorite things: Eating, sleeping, and gaming.

Song Caicai's catchphrase: "Wouldn't it be easier if I just died?"

Seeing Song Caicai let herself go like this, everyone in the industry thought her career was doomed. Who could have guessed she would end up lounging her way to becoming a top-tier star?

Countless office drones became her fans, and her iconic quotes spread far and wide among the overworked. Is this what the real mental state of a working stiff looks like?

[On my way to work at eight in the morning, even passing dogs get an earful from me.]

[I'm too fragile. Any difficulty can knock me down.]

[Each day, I examine myself three times: Did I slack off at work? Did a coworker dump their work on me? Did the boss make empty promises?]

Song Caicai, serene: Slacking off feels good for a while; slacking off forever feels good forever.

Theme: Hard work matters
