[Revising from the beginning]
A vain, pretty, spoiled princess who knows her worth x a bunch of competitive, possessive monsters
Gui Jiang is spoiled, but undeniably beautiful.
She was the family's precious darling from childhood, raised with endless love and never having to face a storm head-on.
On her first internship away from home, she was just about to experience the cruelties of the adult world when, in the blink of an eye, everything turned upside down.
Inside a school where every rule is set in stone, a cheerful young man pins her in a corner, eyes curved in a smile. "Shh... The students on duty are right outside. You wouldn't want them to see you like this, would you, Sister?"
The faceless female ghost in the mirror slowly drifts closer, tracing her silhouette through the thin glass. "Hmm? Are you still going to run?"
Her straight-laced class-representative roommate quietly climbs into her bed in the middle of the night. "I'm staying with you tonight. Don't go looking for anyone else again!"
Her cold, enigmatic deskmate gently licks her earlobe, unusually tender. "Gui Jiang, if you keep flirting with people, I'll chew your..."
Gui Jiang's worldview is shaken to its core.
To stay alive, she "graciously gives in" and plays along with the monsters, thinking that once she crosses that gate, everything will be fine.
But...
In a fruit shop that welcomes one customer after another, a handsome, gentlemanly customer takes her hand and bows elegantly. "Miss, to complete a transaction, you must pay the full price."
The smooth-talking shop manager hums a tune and plunges the melon knife in his hand deep into something. "A management trainee? Not interested. But... if you'd like to play a little game of raising someone..."
On a lifeless commute, every face in the crowd looks exactly the same. "So persistent? What's worth fighting for in a livelihood with no end in sight?"
Similar figures crowd together, speaking in different voices. "What's worth holding on to in a life that's the same every day?"
The gentle, refined HR manager smiles faintly. "Rather than chasing an elusive truth, why not share in bliss with us?"
The boss, wearing a clown mask, throws up his hands theatrically, sending a burst of dazzling confetti into the air. "You know we love you. All of us!!"
Gui Jiang: This isn't the kind of adult world I wanted to experience!!
