Ninety-Nine Ads: I Make Money by Watching Videos

Chen Mengyao has had a difficult life from the very beginning. Her parents died when she was young, leaving her alone and with no one to depend on. At just sixteen, she had to give up on school before she could even make it to college because she couldn't afford the tuition. With no family to support her and still underage, she repeatedly hits dead ends looking for work and can't even find a job to put food on the table. The only thing she owns is a no-name phone with a cracked screen, her sole connection to the outside world.

In those desperate days, life seems utterly bleak. One day, while idly scrolling through videos, she watches a recommended ad by chance, and an unexpected miracle suddenly occurs. A System notification pops up: she has randomly won a cash prize worth over a million yuan.

The enormous windfall from nowhere completely transforms her bleak life. Long-buried pain and exhaustion well up inside her. After enduring countless hardships, hunger, and cold, Chen Mengyao doesn't immediately start making long-term plans. Instead, one thought rises in her heart: first, she should treat herself well and make up for all the suffering she's endured over the years. Once her emotions have settled, she can take her time to think about where to go in life and begin a brand-new chapter of her own.
