Blurb:
Every student at Capital Star Comprehensive University knew Jiang Tingxi was a toad dreaming of eating swan meat. Wherever the rich young masters and socialites held a party, she was sure to show up.
The reason was simple: she was a shameless gold digger, and she hadn't gone home once in four years of college because she was trying to hook a rich husband.
Everyone waited to see her make a fool of herself. But they waited and waited, until the only line that stretched out of sight was... at a roadside food stall?
*
In her senior year, shortly before graduation, Jiang Tingxi suddenly remembered her first life. Looking back at the life she was living now, even she, with years of experience in the working world, fell silent.
Counterfeit designer bags everywhere, luxury clothes that were half real and half fake, and a bank balance that had gone into the red.
Good heavens, she'd only been without her memories for a little while. Was the universe really going to leave her no way to survive?
To pay off her debts, and to avoid being sent back to her remote little planet when she graduated because she had no job and no household registration on Capital Star, Jiang Tingxi had no choice but to return to her old trade.
This was how people described the throngs of people outside the university gates:
A former insider: Jiang Tingxi is going big this time. She hired so many paid posters. How much did that cost her?
A member of a fan support group: I suggest she give up already. No matter how much hype she creates, can she match Young Master Yue? It's been four years. Has he ever even looked her way?
A first-year student from the military academy next door: Upperclassmen, could you pick something up for us? We'll pay 50 Imperial coins for the errand. The golden pancakes from your school have the kids practically drooling, QAQ.
Everyone: ???
Jiang: Would you like a pancake, dear? It'll put you in a good mood and make you feel great~
Everyone: ... (So good!)

Shen Yuejun believed that anyone who fell in the same place twice was either stupid or an idiot. And he went out of his way to avoid the river named Jiang Tingxi.
He never imagined that one day the boomerang would come back and hit him.
Not only did he fall for the same person twice, he even clung to her, pretending to be asleep and playing dead.
*
Shen Yuejun blocked Jiang Tingxi with a cold expression. He lowered his head, the corners of his eyes red, and clasped her tightly with his long fingers. Trying to sound fierce, he demanded, "Jiang Tingxi, how much longer are you going to ignore me?"
A carefree, sunny, shameless gold digger x A haughty, sharp-tongued, self-deluding hopeless romantic

Warnings, please read:
I'm not very good at writing men. If you call them greasy, all I can do is... (kneels)
The author is an overworked office drone. I'll try to update four or five chapters a week, depending on the rankings.
Let's keep things friendly. Please don't attack the author or characters personally.
This is fiction. Please don't take it seriously. Writing a character's worldview doesn't mean the author shares it.

Coming soon: The Witch's Floating Inn
After transmigrating, the witch Wen Ying got a disastrous start in her new life, and proudly became a girl with no powers, no spirit companion, and no money.
Her entire fortune amounted to an astonishing three digits, while her bank loan had fewer than seven zeroes.
Wen Ying learned that even the cheapest nutritional drink cost two digits. She fell silent...
She'd taken out a loan and poured money into the place. She'd died and come back to life, so there was no reason to give up now. Wen Ying could only do her best to get this little shop, which was about to go bankrupt before opening, up and running.
First, add some flowers and greenery to the dilapidated inn. Then make some delicious, fragrant food. Next, create a cozy, peaceful atmosphere. Finally, lure in a spirit companion with a big appetite to serve as free publicity. Perfect!
The inn's business took the internet by storm. Only when other customers pointed it out did Wen Ying, who had been absorbed in running the place and ignoring the outside world, suddenly realize that many of her regulars were faces ordinary people could only see online.
The Empire's recently retired marshal, the wealthy son of a family from the neighboring Capital Star, an A-list movie star... Wen Ying looked them up one by one and was nearly frightened into eating two extra bowls of rice by their impressive titles.
Fans who came because the bigwigs had visited found them sitting quietly to one side, waiting for Wen Ying to finish cooking. Meanwhile, their spirit companions had completely forgotten their owners and were all gathered around Wen Ying's feet, fawning over her and trying every trick to be cute.
The spirit companion in front was a big white fox. Relying on its overflowing psychic power, it beat all the others and clambered onto Wen Ying's shoulder, rubbing its face affectionately against hers.
But after fawning over Wen Ying, the white fox immediately swatted away every other spirit companion that tried to cuddle up to her. Then it turned around and whined, acting spoiled and begging Wen Ying to comfort it. It was just as domineering as its owner.
Everyone: ... Have you no shame?
Others were baffled. What kind of magic did this place have, making so many bigwigs abandon their dignity and fight over it?
The bigwigs who knew how impressive Wen Ying was kept quiet.
If they said anything, even more people would come and compete with them for a spot. If word got out, would there be any room left for them at the inn?
It was said that the Empire's prime minister had begun to suffer from declining psychic power and could no longer summon his spirit companion. Yet lately, he had appeared in the news with his spirit companion for the first time, taking the world by storm and sounding full of vigor, with no sign of psychic decline.
Some people noticed the prime minister's spirit companion: a snow fox with lustrous white fur that shimmered with light. It looked exactly like the one cuddling in Wen Ying's arms, didn't it?
Theme: Strive for self-reliance and personal independence
? ? ? ? ? ? [Cracked] It's so sudden, is it over? ? ? ?
Ahhhh! It feels like it was only half-written and the ending was forced!
I saw many babies saying that the ending was too sudden, but as the main line of the original design with almost no deletions, Xiao Jiang broke through to S level and successfully obtained credits in the competition. She had successfully broken through the first level of her life, and the rest of her life was almost a matter of course: she graduated, opened a shop, continued to study in the direction of diet therapy, etc.
Because it is the future that is visible to the naked eye, I have no choice to continue writing.
Maybe the follow-up episodes will involve a little bit, but when it comes to the main storyline, I think it's a bit too lengthy 😭
Thank you for your continued support, but every story will come to an end, just like Xiao Jiang's game will eventually end. If you have any extras you particularly want to see, you can leave a message. I will refer to your opinions and put them in extras or welfare extras in the future. Thank you everyone (bow)
Ah? ? ? Did it end so suddenly? .
? ? ? How about finishing it in one go today! ! !
There's another chapter in the afternoon, and it's already in explosive mode [turning][turning]
Can I ask the teacher to help me cook more high-level meals?
Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh it feels like S suddenly came first before it was very stable and then the awards were announced [ bursting into tears ]
Sprinkle flowers? Looking forward to more extras
It did stop a little abruptly, but it was still pretty good. Come on! ! I really, really got this emotional line. I'm looking forward to the next work 🤩
