Wang Hai's arrest sent shockwaves through the entertainment industry. Those who had once relied on his power now avoided him like the plague, fearing for their lives. Lin Qian watched all this with cold indifference, her heart unmoved. Wang Hai's fate was merely the first step in her revenge plan.
System 003 floated beside Lin Qian, excitedly shaking its virtual head, its electronic voice filled with jubilation: "Host, you're amazing! In just a few days, you've taken care of that scoundrel Wang Hai! It's truly gratifying!"
The dimly lit rented room was filled with a musty smell. The walls were peeling and the furniture was old. This was where Lin Qian stayed after she transmigrated.
"This body has a decent foundation, but it's too frail." Lin Qian looked at the pale, thin face in the mirror, her eyes gradually sharpening. The original owner had a beautiful appearance, but the hardships of life had worn her down to a lifeless state. Coupled with years of malnutrition, long-term life stress, and irregular work and rest, her complexion was sallow, her eyes had long lost their former liveliness and light, and her body was withered and devoid of any beauty.
"System 003, initiate body data analysis," Lin Qian commanded in her mind.
"Beep—Host's body data is as follows: Height 168cm, weight 45kg, BMI too low, muscle mass insufficient, body fat percentage too high..." 003 reported dutifully.
"Heh, this body is incredibly weak." Lin Qian sneered. "Looks like I'll have to take good care of it, otherwise how can I fight those scumbags?"
From that day on, Lin Qian began a grueling training regimen. Every day before dawn, she would get up to run and do yoga, rain or shine. She also strictly controlled her diet, giving up all junk food and only eating healthy, low-fat foods.
Besides exercising, Lin Qian also enrolled in various acting courses. The original owner's acting skills were simply appalling; her delivery of lines was poor, her expressions were stiff, and she lacked any spirit whatsoever. To change this situation, Lin Qian spent every day in the rehearsal room, diligently practicing the basics, studying the character's psychology, and striving for perfection.
System 003 watched Lin Qian's tireless efforts day after day and couldn't help but feel admiration: "Host, you're really working so hard! I never realized you had such strong perseverance."
Lin Qian smiled, her eyes revealing determination: "Now that I'm here, I can't let the original owner's life continue to be miserable. Moreover, I need to find a way to earn money to support my living and study expenses."
Lin Qian had learned hacking techniques in her previous life and was quite skilled at them. She decided to use this skill to earn some income. She carefully searched online for firewall repair tasks posted by various small companies. With her excellent skills, she quickly analyzed the problems, resolved the vulnerabilities, and completed these tasks with high quality, earning a considerable sum of money.
Having accumulated some capital, Lin Qian was not content. In her previous transmigration world, she had been a CEO, possessing unique insight and keen market acumen. With 003's assistance, she began to pay attention to stock market dynamics. She meticulously studied the financial statements of various companies, industry development trends, and market conditions, carefully selecting stocks with potential.
After careful consideration, Lin Qian successfully made considerable profits in the stock market and gradually accumulated a certain amount of wealth.
With this income, Lin Qian's financial pressure was significantly relieved. No longer worrying about making a living, she was able to focus more on improving her skills and making full preparations for making a name for herself in the entertainment industry.
"However, host, are you working so hard just to complete the mission?" 003 asked thoughtfully.
Lin Qian paused slightly, slowly raising her head to gaze into the distance outside the window. A resolute look flashed in her eyes as she softly said, "I want to live a different life for the original owner. I want her to know that her fate shouldn't be so tragic; she deserves everything better. The original owner endured too much suffering and setbacks. I hope that through my efforts, she can feel the beauty and hope of life. I want those who looked down on her and bullied her to know that she is not someone who can be trampled on at will. I will use my actions to seek justice for the original owner and let her life shine with new brilliance."
Lin Qian's words were filled with strength and determination, which moved 003 deeply. It knew that Lin Qian would do everything in her power to achieve her goal.
After making money, Lin Qian moved out of the original owner's damp and dark room and into a luxury apartment in the city center.
The apartment's living room is extremely spacious, with a thick, beige cashmere carpet that feels soft and comfortable underfoot. A set of grey leather sofas sits in the center of the room, its simple yet elegant design complemented by soft, matching cushions, making it inviting to sink into. A large glass coffee table sits in front of the sofa, upon which rests a delicate crystal vase filled with fresh lilies, emitting a subtle fragrance. A magnificent crystal chandelier hangs from the ceiling, its dazzling light illuminating the entire room. Several reproductions of world-famous paintings adorn the walls, adding a rich artistic atmosphere to the room.
Inside the restaurant, a rectangular mahogany dining table sits in the center, surrounded by several carved solid wood chairs, exuding elegance and sophistication. A pristine white lace tablecloth covers the table, and a silver candlestick sits in the center, its flickering candlelight creating a romantic atmosphere.
In the bedroom, a huge European-style bed dominates the space, covered with soft goose down comforters that feel as light as a cloud. Two solid wood bedside tables sit beside the bed, each holding a vintage-style lamp and a delicate alarm clock. Next to the window is a spacious relaxation area with a comfortable armchair and a small coffee table with a book and a steaming cup of coffee. Looking out the window, one can see the bustling city skyline.
"Host, you're amazing! That Wang Hai is probably kicking himself now, hahaha!" 003's shrill electronic voice echoed in Lin Qian's mind, as excited as a little sparrow.
Lin Qian put down her phone. News of Wang Hai's arrest was everywhere. Those who had once praised him were now busy distancing themselves, afraid of getting even a little bit involved. She smiled faintly. This was just the beginning of revenge; the real show was yet to come.
"Don't get too excited yet, this is just the beginning." Lin Qian said calmly, wiping the sweat from her forehead with a towel. During this time, besides studying acting, she had also enrolled in Taekwondo and Sanda classes. The original owner's body was too weak; she didn't want to be ambushed one day without even the strength to fight back.
