The laid-back Yu Ning transmigrated into a bizarre storybook where everyone was obsessed with hard work,
and got bound to a workaholic's script.
Her choice was to...
Put on an act!
She furrowed her brow in deep thought during class, and the System was pleased,
never realizing she'd fallen asleep.
She buried her head in her books in her room, and the System was satisfied,
never realizing she was reading a storybook.
Even Wen Xun, the workaholic with a tragic ending in the book, was fooled by her.
After secretly watching her for a while, he finally strode up to Yu Ning in an extravagant display at a grand ceremony.
"Become my disciple. From now on, I'll train you hard."
Yu Ning: Don't come any closer!!!

Much later, the two traveled the world and saw...
A cultivator who had worked diligently for over a decade being rejected by an immortal sect despite bringing his resume, then turning to see a young disciple from the Demon Sect handing out flyers that read, "Heroes can come from anywhere."
The only cultivator in a family with high hopes for him had sold his sword and was frying pancakes in an alley. He even had to use his spiritual power in secret, for fear of being caught.
Someone set up a cultivation array, all to improve the aptitude of a baby not yet born.
Someone else looked at the precious treasures before them and shouted, "Dad, I don't want to cultivate immortality!"
But "Dad" glanced at the new recruit's profile and sighed. "Poor aptitude."
The immortal sects feast on meat and wine while cultivators' bones litter the roads.
Wen Xun asked her, "Disciple, do you like this world? Would you be willing to protect it with all your strength?"
Yu Ning: Can I say no?
Wen Xun smiled faintly. "Then... let's destroy it together."

* One-on-one romance, both leads are virgins, happy ending
* A lazy girl who only wants to fool the System by acting, and a genuine workaholic who thinks he's found a kindred spirit
* The female lead really is very lazy
