Is There Really Such a Good Thing in This World?

After transmigrating into the role of Changsun Lu Meng, Lu Meng discovered she had become the female lead of a melodramatic, angst-ridden novel.

In the original story, the character Changsun Lu Meng endured relentless physical and emotional torment from all sides—even stray dogs seemed to target her exclusively. By the story’s tragic conclusion, she had finally moved both heaven and the male lead with her suffering, only to succumb to illness and die young.

One iconic line from the book was the heroine’s trembling words to the male lead on her deathbed: "Will you only care for me if I die?"

After her transmigration, the male lead coldly informed Lu Meng on their wedding day: "You may freely use the gold and silver in this estate. I can ensure a lifetime of luxury and comfort for you—so long as you obey and never covet what isn’t yours."

Staring at the ethereally handsome male lead, Lu Meng’s mind fixated on one phrase: "Freely use the gold and silver… a lifetime of luxury and comfort…"

Lu Meng: "Wait, this is actually a thing?"

During their marriage, the male lead schemed and battled rivals in his quest for power, while Lu Meng diligently embraced her role as a useless but beautiful vase. She refused to disrupt the status quo with any 21st-century knowledge, avoided yearning for the male lead’s love, and never stepped in to take a blade or arrow for him. Instead, she steadfastly hid behind him, endured every humiliation without retaliation, and meticulously recorded each offense to tattle to him later.

Aside from the occasional busy schedule of fending off insults from cannon-fodder characters, her life was blissfully heavenly.

The only hiccup? A long-dormant system occasionally resurrected itself, forcing her to recite scripted lines from the original plot.

One night, Lu Meng dutifully delivered her assigned line: "Will you only care for me if I die?"

The male lead, buried in paperwork, abruptly looked up from his desk. The poised immortal facade shattered as he slammed his brush down and growled, "So, are you planning to gorge yourself to death—or laze yourself into an early grave?!"

Lu Meng: "…Boss, no need to rage over overtime work. Uh… wanna hug it out tonight?"
