The Big Shot Wants to Be a Layabout

Chu Ci was abandoned by the Chu family for eighteen years. Then one day, for some reason, the old man fell gravely ill and ordered someone to bring her home.

Seeing Chu Ci’s shabby appearance, with everything she owns worth less than a hundred yuan, the whole Chu family looks down on her.

Even the household servants dress better than she does.

How could their family have such a down-and-out daughter?

And she thinks she can get a share of the Chu family inheritance? No way!

But before long, they realize that the daughter they abandoned to grow up in an orphanage seems to be a little unusual.

She effortlessly gets the top score on every exam. Her safe is full of top-grade jade worth hundreds of thousands or even millions. She tosses around luxury goods like they’re nothing. And all kinds of professors and big shots call her boss...

Elder Chu: As long as you work hard, the inheritance is all yours.

Chu Ci: I just want to be a lazy fish who lives off others and waits to die.

Some big shot: I have plenty of money. Come live at my place, and I’ll take care of you. You can eat all you want.

Chu Ci: Are there any strings attached?

Some big shot: Let me taste what a salted fish is like.

Chu Ci: Salted fish are too salty. They don’t taste good.

Some big shot: How would you know if they’re salty unless you try one?
