(Starting from Chapter 18, updates will be irregular, but I won't abandon this story. I've already planned the ending. This book is kind of trash, so please think carefully before diving in, dears.)
There's a beautiful, powerful, tragic big shot in the Heavenly Realm today.
Beautiful? So beautiful even the gods are jealous.
Powerful? So powerful that killing gods is an everyday occurrence.
Tragic? Truly tragic. She's been a lackey of the Heavenly Realm since childhood, doing all the dirty, backbreaking work.
The gods slander and curse her behind her back, but when the big shot merely yawns, they don't dare make a peep.
As the power of the ancient Yan clan awakens, demons, immortals, and gods across the Six Realms and the Four Seas begin to stir, all coveting this power.
To keep it from being exploited by those with ulterior motives, the beautiful, powerful, tragic big shot is forced to descend to the mortal realm on a mission. She transfers to the prestigious First Noble School attended by the person she's meant to protect, going undercover as a student.
Now she has to outwit a group of rich kids while protecting her target from demons.
The big shot: No rat race for me. I just want to lie flat.

After Yan Siqi and Qi Siyan get together, Qi Siyan's job makes it hard for them to see each other, and their relationship feels like a long-distance romance.
Though Yan Siqi feels frustrated, she can understand.
That is, until the day she sees Qi Siyan walking down the street hand in hand with another woman.
Yan Siqi watches them quietly, then walks up to her boyfriend without saying a word.
They look at each other in silence for three minutes.
He offers no explanation, and she makes no scene. She only sees the other woman clutch Qi Siyan's arm tightly, as if showing off.
Qi Siyan doesn't push the woman away. He seems to accept it.
Yan Siqi sees the truth clearly. The man who once told her he loved her has, in the end, made the same mistake as men everywhere.
Heartbroken, she disappears from his world.
Years later, an accident brings them together again, but now she is a woman he can never reach.
Yan Siqi has gained some fame in show business, with countless men around her.
In an interview, she's asked about her dating experience. She says she's been in a relationship before.
“How many times have you dated?”
“Once.”
“Was he someone outside the industry?”
“Yes.”
“Can you tell us what he did for a living?”
“Not really, but he had a medical license.”
Off camera, the man watches her lie in silence.
After the interview, he pins her against the wall. “I've never had a medical license. Why did you lie?”
She sneers. “Detective, are you mistaken? I wasn't talking about you.”
“You've dated someone else?”
“What does that have to do with you, Detective?”
“You said you'd only dated once. Was that him? What about me?”
“Did I? I don't remember.”
She turns with a smile, but the next moment, it vanishes.
Watching her spend every night with different men, even Qi Siyan's composed facade eventually begins to crack.
That day, he shamelessly grabs her. “Let's start over.”
Yan Siqi curls her lips into a carefree smile. “Do you think you're still good enough for me?”
