The Divine Doctor Was Once the Marquis's Late, Beloved One

[Cool-Headed, Compassionate Beauty vs. Gentle, Love-Blind Gentleman]

Ning Mingshu, a doctor with Doctors Without Borders, transmigrates into a melodramatic body-double novel as the original love of the male lead, the one with only three days left to live.

To make matters worse, the System tells her she has to endure abuse to extend her life.

Ning Mingshu... Sorry, but she's not playing along.

She won't be a dead first love for people to reminisce about, pave the way for someone else's happy life, or hand over all the glory she earns after death to Ning Mingyue, who stole her identity.

With silver needles in hand, she breaks free of the trap and crushes the male and female leads, who had been bent on stepping on her to climb to the top.

Only when she is backed into a corner does Ning Mingyue finally understand: the Ning Mingshu of this life will never again let others control her.

She casts aside every false affection. Only her medical skills and sincere heart can carry her through the long years ahead.

Next book: [I Was Scammed Out of 2 Billion, and Became the Protagonist Group's Favorite]

Wen Ruanruan is a poor working stiff: tough, lively, and unloved, forced to start working as soon as she graduates high school. One day, she binds to a cash-back System that rewards her for spending money.

Task: Spend 2 billion within one year to get it back as a rebate. Any unspent amount disappears when time runs out.

Wen Ruanruan, whose bank balance has never exceeded three digits, starts racking her poor brain for ways to spend money.

For example, buy two grilled sausages, eat one and throw the other away; eat only the filling of a meat bun and leave the bread; take only air-conditioned buses; and ride only D-prefixed trains, never regular trains. After adding it all up, she hasn't made a dent in the 2 billion.

Help... How do you spend money?

The next second, the System says, "Host, you can't spend the money on yourself."

Wen Ruanruan is stunned. "What? I have to spend it on other people?"

With tears streaming down her face, she grits her teeth. "Fine. I'll do it."

And so, in Shanghai, a beautiful, kindhearted, gullible heiress appears: the unloved true daughter of a wealthy family, kicked out of her home with nothing but money.

She asks everyone she meets, "Are you short on cash? You can even scam me. Please."

A street vendor points to a tattered scroll. "This is a priceless treasure..."

Wen Ruanruan: "I'll buy it."

The aloof campus heartthrob from high school: "I need 100,000 to start a business."

Wen Ruanruan: "I'll transfer it."

A homeless man on the street: "I'm a genius scientist. My technology will change the world."

Wen Ruanruan: "How much? 100 million? Sure."

The homeless man: "..."

The scammers go crazy. "This girl is way too easy to fool!"

Until...

The street vendor's tattered scroll turns out to be a priceless antique painting.

The aloof heartthrob's company goes public, earning a hundredfold return.

The homeless man's tech company rings the opening bell at Nasdaq.

Looking at the balance in her account swelling like a snowball, Wen Ruanruan falls into deep thought: Can you get rich by being scammed?

...Was the reason she never got rich before that nobody had tried to scam her?

System: [Host, I am your cash-power System.]

Wen Ruanruan's eyes light up. "How much starting capital will you give me?"

System: [Getting something for nothing is shameful.]

Wen Ruanruan... "Then surely there's some other benefit?"

The System says bashfully, "Two billion..."

"H-How much?"

[I-It is a little low. Two billion.] The System speaks in a faint mumble, trying hard to explain. [I know it's too little, and can't compare with the other Systems...]

On and on it rambles...

Wen Ruanruan doesn't hear a word. Her mouth moves mechanically. "A little low, yes, but I don't mind..."

Theme: Rely on yourself rather than others. More skills never hurt.
