“Host, please prepare yourself. Memory clearance in progress — you will soon leave the small world and return to the system space—”
Memory clearance? Jin Qiao didn’t think much of it.
Out of habit, she closed her eyes.
When she opened them again, she found herself back in the system space. She casually lay down on the sofa, waiting for the system to assign her next task.
Since her inexplicable death, she had been living a life of a stable, secure job—it was actually quite enjoyable.
After all, wherever she was, she was still at work.
“What’s the next task?” Jin Qiao asked lazily, squinting.
“Host, it has been detected that your task count has reached KPI. The headquarters has issued you a reward: you may randomly visit a small world for vacation and relaxation.”
Upon hearing this, Jin Qiao immediately sat up, unable to hide her joy.
Which worker doesn’t love a vacation?
“A vacation? And I can choose how to live there? Then I want wealth, beauty, the freedom to lounge around, and preferably a cute little child to play with.”
Recently, her DouDou feed was filled with adorable kids, making her heart itch, but having one herself?
No, that wasn’t necessary.
“Host’s preferences have been recorded. Is there anything else?”
“Hmm… nothing else for now.”
“Understood. Matching a world for you now.”
Jin Qiao nodded.
A flash of white light passed before her eyes. When she opened them again, she found herself in a luxurious room.
“Host, are you ready to receive your information card?”
Rubbing her sleepy head, Jin Qiao nodded and tapped ‘yes’.
Name: Jin QiaoGender: FemaleMarital Status: MarriedSpouse: Yu AnIdentity: VillainessEnding: Sent to prison by the male lead, dying a tragic death
“This… wasn’t I supposed to be on vacation??? Why is this the villainess’s script? Are you kidding me?!”
“Host requested wealth, beauty, and a child. This world is a perfect match,” the system said in its emotionless robotic voice.
Jin Qiao felt a headache coming on.
She hadn’t asked to live long!
“Since there are no further issues, I will take my leave. Enjoy your vacation,” the system continued.“Oh, by the way, the plot of this world will be sent to you later. Please check carefully.”
Jin Qiao didn’t want to say anything more. This was completely different from what she had imagined—sob.
As long as she didn’t act recklessly, the male lead shouldn’t bother her.
People don’t offend me, I don’t offend people.
After receiving most of the plot, Jin Qiao began to feel something was off. Yu An is the villain’s father? There’s no mention of the villain’s mother… so how did she become the villain’s mother?
Sweating uncomfortably, Jin Qiao quickly went to the bathroom and washed herself clean.
After leaving the bathroom, she went downstairs and instructed the housekeeper, Wu Ma.
“Could you please tidy up my room?”
Wu Ma was momentarily stunned at Jin Qiao’s unusually pleasant tone—when had her mistress ever spoken so nicely? But she didn’t have time to think and called several maids to clean the room.
Jin Qiao toured the villa like a visitor. No wonder this was the wealthiest family in the world—the mansion was magnificent.
She then walked into the garden.
While wandering, she seemed to remember something and opened her phone.
Checking her balance, Jin Qiao’s heart sank completely.
1068? Is there any wealthy lady worse off than her? Surely not. Even the richest man wouldn’t withhold money from his wife?
She hadn’t seen any black card in the room either.
“Madam Yu!”
Jin Qiao, who had been internally fuming at the greeting, quickly plastered a smile on her face and looked toward the source of the voice.
Why the sudden change in expression? Workplace skills.
Her sudden, awkward smile startled Lin Yu, who was accompanying Yu Siyu.
Lin Yu studied Jin Qiao carefully.
The little boy had already wriggled free from Lin Yu’s hand, standing aside. He glanced at Jin Qiao with no expression, then lowered his gaze back to his doll.
Jin Qiao didn’t care about them—her attention was already on the little boy.
She observed him carefully. His face was pale and cute, but he was far too quiet. Kids this age shouldn’t be this quiet.
She stepped forward, crouching in front of Yu Siyu.
Is this the little villain?
Such an adorable child… later to become the heroine’s devoted follower, even sacrificing his life.
What a pity. So young, yet unaware of life’s value.
But considering the side story, his mother wasn’t there for him growing up, and later she used his biological debt to threaten him.
Still, he was undeniably cute.
Unable to resist, she reached out to pinch his soft cheeks. As soon as her hand raised, Jin Qiao noticed the boy flinch slightly.
Afraid? But why didn’t he dodge?
Jin Qiao didn’t know how the original person had treated this little one, but seeing him tremble at her approach already made things clear.
She had to give up on pinching his cheeks and sighed inwardly.
I just wanted a proper vacation, why is this such a high-level challenge?
“Madam Yu, what are you doing to the little master?”
Lin Yu, on high alert, yanked Yu Siyu behind her.
The little boy nearly stumbled from the sudden pull.
Jin Qiao noticed that the boy, though steady now, didn’t utter a word and kept staring at his doll. He even gave Lin Yu a serious glance.
This was a problem. Lin Yu’s yank must have hurt him, but he didn’t make a sound.
Jin Qiao’s expression darkened. She looked coldly at the woman across from her.
“And you are?”
Lin Yu, annoyed at Jin Qiao’s dismissive attitude, bristled. She often came to the villa to see the little master and had met the “CEO’s wife” many times. The housekeeper had even introduced her before—but now Jin Qiao asked who she was?
“I’m the little master’s tutor. My name is Lin Yu.”
Hearing the name, Jin Qiao understood her role—apparently a teacher had been sent to the household.
“I want to ask… who am I to the little master?” Jin Qiao asked coldly.
“You…” Lin Yu was momentarily speechless.
When did this woman start caring so much about the little master? She had never interacted with him before, always looking at him with disdain.
Jin Qiao realized Lin Yu posed no threat and lost interest. Boring.
She glanced at her own fingers, thinking how much prettier they would look with a fresh manicure.
“Teacher Lin, you’re off work. I’ll take my son home for dinner.”
Jin Qiao stepped forward, pushing Lin Yu aside, scooped up the little cutie, and walked away without looking back.
Yu Siyu stiffened in her arms, unsure what to do.
He noticed his mother staring at him, so he buried his head lower, like a shy little turtle.
Back at the villa, Jin Qiao placed Yu Siyu on the sofa and immediately rolled up the sleeve of his right arm.
Sure enough, his delicate skin was bright red.
Jin Qiao’s expression darkened further.
Yu Siyu seemed to sense his mother’s displeasure and clutched his doll tighter with his left hand.
“Wu Ma, please bring the medicine kit from the house.”
