My Life Is Worth 1.68 Million

Lone-wolf heroine x shady side gigs x rule-based horror x no romance

"My name is Lu Sheshui. My mother has a glioblastoma, and we need 1,686,400 yuan."

"I'm willing to sell my life."

After settling the house and the car and borrowing every bit of money she could, Lu Sheshui realized she was truly out of options.

Her mother was expected to need at least seven more months of treatment, costing around 240,000 yuan a month. Lu Sheshui had only 600 yuan in her pocket.

At the end of her rope, a message from an old acquaintance showed her a way forward.

[Hey, Xiaohe, I have a tricky part-time job here. If you're short on money, want to take it? Don't worry, it's legal.]
