Description

Links are NOT allowed. Format your description nicely so people can easily read them. Please use proper spacing and paragraphs.

As an emotionless Green Tea, Shi Yin signed a contract with the System to revive herself and forced the female lead on the path of a lonely life.

Shi Yin: “Jie Jie, being together with you makes me so happy. Although this request might be very intrusive, but I still want to ask; Jie Jie, can I go over to your house today?”

Female Lead: “Come come come.”

Shi Yin: “Jie Jie, we should distance ourselves. I don’t want to impact your life. It’s a pity, if only I wasn’t the same gender as you.”

Female Lead: “Don’t worry about them, I’m already no longer straight!”

Shi Yin: “Jie Jie, my mission is complete. Thank you, Jie Jie, but we probably shouldn’t meet again.”

Female Lead: “… …?”

Shi Yin glanced at the full mission bar, emotionless: “System, next one.”

Haha I love this story, it's wild XD

So there's a couple things here?

First, this is a ghost story!! The poor female lead is being haunted by a heartless undead monster/malevolent ghost dead set on totally ruining her life. I love ghost stories. SO much.

Second, the QT girl pops in and goes "Tehe, nobody's better at stirring up trouble than me! I'm just a cute lil prankster~! <3" and for the first few chapters you're like, oh yeah, okay, checks out? Then the bomb drops. "prankster" "green tea" my butt! She's... more>> a psychopath! She belongs in a mental hospital under lock and key and big scary guards - and it's revealed that she probably would be. Except she escaped. By dying. Because she's just that far off her rocker. She's a crazy pe*vert that gets off on lying and manipulating people's feelings/romances to turn their lives into her personal live action soap opera. So she can watch with popcorn. What green tea, she's just a nutjob! Pure evil! She bats her big watery eyes and smiles adorably while holding a knife behind her back!

Third - the hook that got me, the real appeal of the book. The Female Lead is the real protagonist of the story, and the heartless undead monster I mentioned is the QT girl! The FL is playing a dating sim on Hell Mode and I'm here for it - she's trying to seduce the psychotic emotionless dead girl haunting her. I'm so into it. I need to see how she does it, I'm here just to root for the FL to wiggle her way into her cold unbeating heart, it's the reason to read. 0.0

There are these moments, right? Blink and you miss them throwaway lines that you wouldn't think twice about if you aren't tuned in looking for them. The cracks in the QT girl's persona. She's got this tiny, black little heart caked in mud and tr*sh and all manner of awful things - but every once in awhile, you see a sliver of something else glimmering underneath all that. These things she says casually in her inner monologue that show she's maybe just a little more human than she's letting on to us, and that maybe she really does kinda care about the FL, deep, deep down? The way that oftentimes, the things she actually does are subtly at odds with what she says she'll do, and counterproductive to the goals she supposedly has, and what that says about what's really going on. If you take away one thing from my review, read this story with eagle eyes, don't take what you're told at face value, and look for those moments, the hints that she's not really the person we're lead to believe she is. It's so rewarding when you find them, and makes the story so much better. She's psychotic, but she's a character with layers, and it really makes you want to cheer for the FL to peel them back one by one.

Fourth thing is that every world is a romantic tragedy that presses my 'Romeo and Juliet' button so hard. The crux of it is the way that the Quick Transmigration system works - she's dead, and can't just casually be revived to do a mission. In each world someone has to die before she can show up, and only then can our ghost girl enter the stage by possessing the corpse and taking their identity. But it's not free, she's keeping the body 'alive' on borrowed time. Reanimating a corpse burns her soul/necromantic life as fuel, and she's only got so much of that before she's all burned up. Every minute with the FL costs her. She can't afford to linger any longer than it takes to do the mission. The result is that the instant the FL says the words "I love you" - it's a death sentence for her, and her time is up. From the moment the words drop the QT girl is on a timer and she's about to experience the original owner's death, the way they were supposed to before she showed up.

Worse, she doesn't just immediately go to the next world. She floats around in the state of being dead for who knows how long, totally alone in an endless, sensationless black void struggling to even think. Like her thoughts are molasses, every one desperate resistance to keep existing. She's struggling not to fall asleep and disappear into the void until the system fishes her out again. It's scary. Even though she's already dead, dying again isn't a casual event for her.

It makes the way she reacts to a confession and what she does afterwards super interesting, pay special attention to those parts, they're important and there's a lot of subtext in how she preps for death and how she chooses to go out. It's also very interesting to watch the conflict between her rushing to the goal to finish early and save 'fuel' and at the same time, all the excuses she makes to drag the confession out and stay a little longer, just a little bit longer...

This story has depth. If you read it shallowly like 'just another QT story' it doesn't seem like it has much to offer, but if you stop and think and dig a little deeper, you always seem to find something. A lot of stories fall apart and reveal a whole swiss cheese of plot holes and bad writing when you dig into them, this one is special because it doesn't fall apart. It gets better. If you read it, make sure you dig a little, it's worth it.

Spoiler

Also this part is hilarious? After she goes out of her way to say goodbye and have her tragic death where the FL won't have to watch in the first arc, even rebelling against the system to make sure she says 'I love you too' before she goes... writing her own whole drama script? the dead girl pops into the next world and freezes in terror like *she's* the one that's seen a ghost when she finds out the FL is the same person again. XD

As of the first arc, the MC’s personality is so unlikable it’s actually laughable. She is a very cruel person, and the author constantly describes her as taking joy in other’s suffering, and that seems to be specially true towards the FL.

Both the writing and the pacing are rushed in the important parts and slow on random stuff, and the ending of arc 1 was reaally abrupt considering the fact that until chapter 22 there was not much build up but lots of daily things that didn’t advance the plot... more>> and only made MC seem like a truly mean green tea b**ch (and not in an enjoyable or fun way). Arc 1 is not good, maybe it gets better but I’m not going to spend money to find out. <<less

A green tea is a green tea, and Shi Yin inevitably makes sure to leave the FL's heart in pieces by the end of each world. I actually almost cried at the second world just reading about how the FL couldn't bear to throw away the rings she prepared, so she dug them out of the tr*sh and wore it herself.

Shi Yin is s*um through and through, yet the amount of life she's gaining for herself is actually decreasing world after world, because she's staying past the time she needs... more>> to stay with the FL. Isn't that interesting? She only has to stay until the words "I like you" come from the FL, but she actually accompanies her for a while afterwards, even though it means she has less time to live herself. That's pretty uncharacteristic of her, huh? <<less
