Lin Xi is an office drone drowning in the relentless grind of a 996/007 world, working day and night yet still unable to afford even a bathroom in this exorbitantly expensive city.
One night, after returning from a client dinner, she mysteriously finds herself added to a WeChat group.
Someone @'s her, claiming to have traveled to another world and begging her to check on their parents, offering ten taels of gold as payment.
Thinking it’s just a joke, Lin Xi agrees—only for several golden peanuts to materialize before her eyes the next second...
Soon, more bizarre requests flood the group.
A user from a post-apocalyptic world asks her to investigate their own death, offering gene-repair serums and advanced weapons as reward.
Another, stranded in a primitive era, pleads for her to adopt their pet orange cat, promising rare gemstones in return.
A third, trapped in ancient times, tasks her with uncovering the truth behind their murder to bring the killer to justice, with payment ranging from forbidden palace gossip and concubine scheming manuals to lost literary masterpieces and legendary paintings.
……
Lin Xi: Say no more! I’m totally in—this is no trouble at all!
