Guan Liqiu, a talented actress known for her virtuous and gentle image, made two huge waves in the entertainment industry just before retiring.
First, she sent her younger brother, a compulsive gambler, to prison. Then, at a related press conference, she abruptly changed the subject and exposed a well-known director's scandal involving the sexual exploitation of performers.
At last, having shed her patient, obedient facade and stirred up a huge mess, Guan Liqiu walked away without a backward glance, ready to fly to the other side of the world and start a new life. Unexpectedly, the plane crashed.
When Guan Liqiu woke up again, she discovered she had transmigrated into that cyberpunk gender-role novel she'd privately cursed a million times. It had thrown in ABO elements and dared to advertise itself as a feminist work that broke through gender stereotypes.
And she'd transmigrated into the gentle, strong-willed female lead who was constantly bullied by fate.
Guan Liqiu refused to accept her fate and resolved to escape the female lead's tragic destiny. But just as she began to make a name for herself in the entertainment industry through her own talent, the barbecue stall owner she knew suddenly asked a question that struck her to the core.
"Did you transmigrate here?"
Guan Liqiu tried to bluff her way through, but the clever young owner saw right through her.
She never expected that this eccentric young stall owner, whose name was Jian Dan, would make a living running an unpopular barbecue stall, while also building one of the country's leading business empires on the side.
Guan Liqiu somehow ended up signing a contract with the young owner, becoming a research subject in Jian Dan's transmigration studies.
What overbearing CEOs? What devoted second male leads? The young owner wanted Guan Liqiu to read transmigration stories about female side characters and female leads with her. There was no time for your forced romances and devoted waiting. Go break up when the weather turns cold.
What ungrateful adopted daughters? What yandere nieces? The young owner was sick of melodramatic family dramas. Children should be cherished as they grow up, so she joined Guan Liqiu in working on early childhood education.
From then on, Guan Liqiu embarked on a path of transmigration she had never imagined.
