synopsis
After completing 999 quick-transmigration tasks, Xu Yao retired gloriously, becoming a cannon fodder female supporting character in the entertainment industry who missed out on a massive inheritance.
The original body was universally reviled in the entertainment circle, with scandals flying everywhere. In despair, she jumped from a high building, only to be found by her wealthy brother.
Xu Yao recalled the inheritance left to her in the book and decisively decided to pack her bags, exit the industry, and collect rent, inheriting hundreds of buildings.
After Xu Yao’s high-profile exit from the industry, netizens excitedly spread the news.
Haters sneered: “Xu Yao, you must be living a hard life after leaving the industry, right? I heard you’ve fallen so low that you’re doing live streams now?”
Xu Yao sighed: “It’s really tiring to do live streams every day while carrying a snake-skin bag to collect rent.”
Haters: Collect rent? What rent?
When a top star stirred up a scandal, reporters surrounded his doorstep, and Xu Yao appeared in front of the cameras.
Haters were furious: “You left the industry but still want to cling to the top star?!!”
Xu Yao opened her WeChat payment code and handed it to the top star: “Could you please pay me the rent you owe for half a year?”
Haters: ?!?
In the most-watched island retirement variety show, the female lead wanted to go out to take photos and called the landlord to sweet-talk her way into borrowing the luxurious yacht in the villa.
Xu Yao decisively refused.
Haters screamed: “Why does the voice of the island villa owner sound like Xu Yao’s??”
Xu Yao smiled: “Because all the villas on the island are mine.”
The IP blockbuster, praised for its beautiful scenery, was filmed in a private century-old mansion worth over a billion in the capital city.
Netizens intentionally stirred up trouble by asking on a certain platform: “No way, is this another property of Xu Yao?”
Highly upvoted answer: “It really is Xu Yao’s investment property.”
Netizens were dumbfounded: “Sister Yao is so rich??”
Gradually, netizens not only discovered that Xu Yao’s properties seemed to be worth a bit more than a billion, but she also became an internet sensation after leaving the industry!

At a dinner party, Ji Zhengqing, the mysterious heir of the Ji family in the capital, caught a glimpse of a small star who was blacklisted online.
Later, according to the will, Xu Yao not only inherited hundreds of buildings from the Xu family but also agreed to get engaged to Ji Zhengqing.
Friend: “Young Master Ji, your sister-in-law is secured!”
Ji Zhengqing: “Not necessarily.”
Relying on these hundreds of buildings, Xu Yao successfully made it onto the global rich list, and Ji Zhengqing realised that his only advantage seemed to be his status as her fiancé.
very mary sue novel, i’d suggest avoiding it if you don’t want a funny comedic brainless read. typical golden finger wherein this case, xu yao throws so much money at certain projects it’s impossible it doesn’t take off. the lead never becomes too out of touch because of her golden finger though which i really like. it’s a nice brainless read, super funny (i also rlly love all the novels this author has written so i might be a bit biased) and the romance between the ml and fl is super cute as well. be warned once again, there’s defs strong tones of nationalism and some subtle shade at other countries
here’s a vip review from the website to help u see if you want to read this:
“After completing 999 tasks, Xu Yao gloriously retires, inheriting over a hundred buildings left by her grandfather, and begins a joyful life as a landlord. Xu Yao dismisses the second landlord of the urban village and personally collects rent, helping struggling tenants achieve their dreams, aspiring to become the best landlord in the country. While possessing immense wealth from real estate, Xu Yao remains true to her original intention, partnering with her like-minded fiancé Ji Zhengqing to give back to society.
This story features a tight plot, smooth writing, and distinct character personalities, narrating the exciting tale of the female lead Xu Yao, who initially only wished to retire and enjoy life but gradually grows into a socially responsible and patriotic wealthy individual while helping her tenants. The narrative is both refreshing and warm, with ups and downs, making it a worthy read.”
