The Poor Little Heir of a Wealthy Family Fights to Survive

After dying from anxiety and overthinking in her previous life, Ning An decides that in this life, she'll live freely and do whatever she wants. As soon as she makes up her mind, a System appears, all fired up: [You're an illegitimate daughter of a wealthy family! You were never meant to live in poverty! Go, claim your family! This system will help you fight for the inheritance and reach the pinnacle of life!] Ning An is so overwhelmed by social anxiety that she says, “I'm not going.” System: [Why not? Don't you want to change your fate? Don't you want to get rich overnight??] Ning An: “Not particularly...” System: [??] Ning An grabs a plastic bag and heads out to scavenge. The System shrieks in bewilderment: [Why do this to yourself?!] Some time later, the wealthy family comes looking for her. They find Ning An collecting cardboard on the street, filthy and sunburnt, skinny and dark. Her scumbag father, who is in the terminal stages of a fatal illness, is so heartbroken that he faints on the spot. The legal wife: How did this illegitimate daughter end up so miserable? The legitimate son: Let's give her some money. Poor thing. The legitimate daughter: Or we could bring her home and take care of her. It's not like we can't afford to feed her... What schemes? What inheritance-grabbing? She looks like she's about to starve to death! The System weeps with joy: [At last, you've returned to your wealthy family! Listen, from now on, you'll get a makeover, put on pretty clothes, attend an elite school, and then...] The legal wife waves a hand and gives an order: “Summer vacation is almost over. You'll start school in a few days. I've already arranged everything.” Ning An scratches her head and quietly refuses: “There's no need to go to all that trouble. I have my own pace, and I can support myself.” The people and the System are stunned. How can she support herself? By scavenging? *The System's main purpose is to spout nonsense *The protagonist is sick but doesn't want treatment Please add my upcoming story, When I Wanted to Die, an Ancient Person Came Asking for Help, to your collection orz Mu Li feels that life is hopeless and wants to die. As she lies in bed scrolling on her phone, wondering if there's anything left in life worth holding on to, someone suddenly knocks at the door. She doesn't move, so the knocking continues. “Who is it?!” A skinny little girl, thin as a stick, stands outside in dirty, patched clothes. She looks frightened and timid. “M-my name is Xiaocao...” Mu Li is at a loss for words. “Where did you come from? Why are you knocking?” “I-I'm from Huangsha Village at the foot of the mountain. We've run out of food, and my mother is almost starving to death... I came into the mountains to look for food, but I got lost. I've been wandering for two days, and then I saw a house here...” Where is Huangsha Village? She's never heard of it. Do people still starve to death these days? The little girl looks at her cautiously. “My lady, might you have any food to spare? Could you lend me some to save my mother's life...” Mu Li: “...Wait a minute.” Mu Li: I'm putting off dying for now. Let's see what's going on. *A heartwarming story about people helping each other (*≧ω≦) Theme: Grow anew, at your own pace
