Wen Yixing received the notification in the afternoon. She was lucky; she passed the interviews with all three companies.
After comparing the options for an afternoon, Wen Yixing finally decided to join Yunhua because Yunhua offered better compensation and greater career development opportunities compared to the other two companies.
When replying to Yunhua Entertainment, Wen Yixing felt her head sink, followed by a familiar mechanical voice.
[Congratulations, host, you have unlocked 5% of your progress.]
The sound came and went quickly. If Wen Yixing hadn't heard it several times before, she might have thought she was hallucinating.
This system appeared in her body after the day she fell.
The system rarely spoke to her, which led Wen Yixing to almost forget about it.
Since the system appeared inside her body, it has only spoken to her three times. Once it told her that she was the villain's biological mother in the book. Once it called out "host" to wake her up when she almost fainted. The last time was today, when it said some things that she couldn't understand.
What does "unlocked by 5%" mean?
Wen Yixing didn't understand.
The system inside her body seemed to be very weak, and no matter how Wen Yixing asked, the system did not respond.

The day before she was to start working at Yunhua Entertainment, Sheng Xia took Wen Yixing to get a nice beauty treatment and then took her to the mall to pick out suitable clothes.
Looking at the clothes Wen Yixing had chosen herself, Sheng Xia nodded in satisfaction and praised, "I knew it! These artsy, brightly colored clothes suit you best! You've finally figured it out!"
Wen Yixing laughed: "Were your clothes really that bad before?"
Sheng Xia gave Wen Yixing a "what else?" look, and then said, "Go and look at your old photos. You're always wearing white or black clothes, plain and loose-fitting. They don't look good at all, and they make you look fat!"
After saying that, Sheng Xia looked Wen Yixing up and down, then pulled her in front of the dressing mirror. "Look at this outfit. It makes you look at least five years younger, and it makes you look beautiful, healthy, and fair-skinned!"
"I remember you used to like dressing like that. You have no idea, but a lot of boys in our class would secretly watch you from the windows in your classroom's corridor. Do you know what they called you in private?"
"What?"
"An artistic goddess!"
The nickname was both youthful and a bit childish, and Wen Yixing couldn't help but laugh.
However, Sheng Xia still spoke in a serious tone: "The boys in our class often talked about you in class, saying that you were beautiful and that you were their goddess. But at that time you were in the honors class, and your homeroom teacher was very strict, so the cowards in our class didn't dare to bother you."
"Actually, several boys in our class did quite well later on. When you first graduated from university, several people asked me about you. It's just a pity that you were already married to Fang Shiyan by then."
As she spoke, Sheng Xia sighed, a rare occurrence for her. "If you ask me, you shouldn't have hung up on one person. There are plenty of good men in this world. Look at what you did to Fang's family a few years ago."
I can't go on talking about it in the middle of summer; it breaks my heart just thinking about it.
Wen Yixing smiled and said, "I was wrong. I will definitely change in the future."
Shengxia couldn't help but laugh too, "That's more like it. With such a pretty face, you definitely have to dress up beautifully. Who cares what others say? Being happy is the most important thing!"
Sheng Xia knew that Wen Yixing actually had a very good sense of style before she married Fang Shiyan. When she was in high school, Wen Yixing's clothes were recognized by all the girls in the school as the best-looking.
Back then, the school required everyone to wear school uniforms, and we could only wear our own clothes on Sunday afternoons when we returned to school.
Sheng Xia remembers it very clearly: Wen Yixing always caused a stir among the girls at school whenever she wore her own clothes. Mainly because Wen Yixing's clothes were just so beautiful. Her clothes had beautiful embroidery and a unique charm of ethnic minority clothing. Moreover, Wen Yixing's clothes were all made for her by her family, and others couldn't find the same styles online.
However, after Wen Yixing married Fang Shiyan, she almost never wore such beautiful clothes again, and most of the time she dressed in a more simple and elegant style.
Sheng Xia knew that it wasn't that Wen Yixing didn't want to wear those clothes, but that her mother-in-law didn't like that style.
Sheng Xia still remembers the year Wen Yixing married Fang Shiyan. She saw Wen Yixing's mother-in-law directly criticizing Wen Yixing in a corner.
Grandma Wen Yixing said, "Dressing so gaudyly is not classy at all. Country folks just can't stand up to social standards. Change it right away!"
Anyway, Wen Yixing's dressing style changed after that day.
"Yes, Xiaxia is right. I must buy a few more pretty outfits today." Wen Yixing nodded in agreement.
Sheng Xia laughed: "Buy it, we have to buy it! Fang Shiyan is paying anyway, why should we save him any money? We have to spend it like crazy!"
Wen Yixing: "Yes!"
