100,000/Hour Professional Stand-in

Description

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

Ji Fanyin realized the moment she transmigrated over that she was a stand-in, a substitute for her younger twin sister, Ji Xinxin.

“Sure, I can be her stand-in. Here is my list of prices. Take a look at it first, and make sure to reserve a slot in advance. I won’t accept any last-minute calls, and do take note that it’ll only be a platonic relationship. Thank you for your cooperation,” she said.

In a western restaurant, a rich young master looked at her with eyes filled with affection as he said, “Xinxin, I would like to ask you out for a movie tomorrow night…”

An alarm suddenly went off.

Ji Fanyin took a glance at her phone before reining in her business smile, saying, “Time’s up. I need to rush for my next appointment. Make sure to foot the tab, and farewell.”

The rich young master’s smile froze up. “I’ll reserve four hours for tomorrow’s movie.”

In the middle of the night, a drunk, tyrannical young master dialed her number and whined, “Big sis, when will you come over to meet me?”

“In order to ensure the quality of service, this call will be recorded. It’s four in the morning right now, and my services will be ten times the usual price. Are you certain you want to proceed?” asked Ji Fanyin.

“… Hurry up and start acting!”

Ji Fanyin’s phone suddenly rang in the midst of a date with a domineering CEO at Tokyo’s tower. With a smile on her lips, she rejected the call and said, “Sorry, it’s another customer.”

“… I’ll pay you ten times the price. Switch off your phone.”

By the time Ji Xinxin finally returned back to the country, Ji Fanyin successfully retired from the scenes with the massive fortune she had amassed.

Heh, bad women will never get hurt!

Instantly bookmarked after 2 chapters!! So SO intriguing to have a story where the MC changes her cannon fodder fate and turns the MLs obsession with the original FL into a profitable business x'D

The female lead is super savvy and starts a business acting as a stand-in for her popular twin sister. Her only "gold finger" is her acting ability from her previous life and a bit of knowledge about the plot, which is pretty refreshing since she's not instantly OP - she has to hustle to make the bug... more>> bucks. Usually in this kind of story, the FL will have a morally black character, but I like this MC because she retains her sense of business ethics and professionalism (she has a price list and everything LOL). At the same time, she NEVER allows herself to eat a loss or fall for her targets!

If you're still on the fence about this one, don't be! I have confidence that you will be s**ked in like me :) <<less

I just wanna say that I didn't completely read everything I skipped some parts and also immediately went to the ending.I'm sorry this just wasn't my cup of tea... Even though I ran out of novels to read cause I already read almost all the reincarnated or transmigration female lead novels and now finding more novels that's different I just couldn't endure this one.I recommend this to the people has a a very big patience and less of a pessimistic person because this novel is really far from reality morals... more>> and if you also can endure the female lead being used by scum men then I think this is the one for you.I mean the only reason I was able to endure halfway was because I was waiting for the face slap and the male lead's regretting.

I could only endure halfway and couldn't read all of it because it feels so painful seeing the female lead being disrespected and treated as a substitute and also having them fall inlove with her even after all those abuse which I think no one in real life could endure but maybe only in novels could. Maybe it's because I have less patience and that I'm more of a realistic type of person I wasn't able to tolerate this novel. The reason I only gave this a four star was only because the FL was able to get her revenge and the sweet feeling of seeing the original's host's family get their karma. Of course there was alot of stuff I also liked for example the cute male lead who's like a puppy, the fl's humor not showing any mercy to those scummy men, and also the lessons this novel gave me.

I guess this thought me not all men who has money, looks, and reputation is good lmao guess this helped me lower my standards abit WHEEZE but there's also this teaching me about morals like for example Song uhhh I forgot his name maybe because he was part of the scum men that I didn't remember but anyways let's call him Song. So seeing him regretting his actions made me a bit more careful in the future incase I do something I regret. Now I know to use my head before doing anything and not my balls *ehem* anyways the ending was extremely satisfying for me and I recommend to anyone to skip to the end-no I'm joking I mean if you can finish this then I recommend you do it till you reach the ending and if you can then skip it and don't just drop it and not read the ending or else it'll leave a bitter taste in your mouth. Anyways the sweetest revenge for me was that
Spoiler

Since the original host returned back to Ji Fanyin's body the scum men are gonna experience another round of losing their " real loved one" just like how they lost Ji Xinxin but had FL as a substitute but this time since FL is gone and also since they can't use the original host to become a substitute again then they have to go through another round of suffering since their loved one is gone and they can't have another substitute. In short the cycle is (Ji Xinxin = FL (substitute) = original host) anyways those scum men all loses the 3 of them anyways so the revenge was very satisfying I mean they deserve it an eye for an eye a tooth for a tooth.

MTL’d the whole series, and it’s very good - the plot isn’t exhausting, the characters are interesting (I love Ji Fanyin and Chen Yusheng with all my heart, and even Day I ended up liking), and the scum abuse/face slapping is not excessive while still satisfying and in place.

The extras are good and I love how well tied everything is, it simply explains everything and finishes the story with a well deserved cherry on top.

It’s interesting and different. What I mean by different is that MC doesn’t forgive and isn’t emotional, she was hired to be a stand in and was really professional, I liked how she had a goal and worked hard. If there is something I didn’t like, it was the romance, it just came out of nowhere so it really didn’t make sense, it felt overly fake. The novel would have been great without romance.

This novel was pretty good and really holds your attention with the exception of a few key problems.

Positives:

  • FL is a total badass. She steps into a new world, takes a quick look around, and is like 'bam, this shit's easy'
  • The villain's are somewhat complex, they all have their own well fleshed out backstories that provide reasons for their behaviors
  • Very mature view of relationships and self-worth. Despite working as a stand-in, the FL is very clear where the line is drawn between reality and fantasy and doesn't let herself become emotionally attached to those toxic people.
Negatives:

  • The ML as well as the ending kind of comes out of nowhere and left an uncomfortable aftertaste. The FL spends the entire book focusing on building her wealth and returning her own world not leaving any time for romance
    Spoiler

    however despite that, the ML acts as though he fell in love with her to the point where he stays abstainent for his entire life so that he can travel to her world and have the chance to pursue her, Additionally the ML himself acknowledges that he did so while thinking that she had no romantic feelings for him. Overall, it had very little build up and felt very forced and rushed.

    [collapse]
  • There's the huge issue of Shen Li as a character.
    Spoiler

    It really felt like the author just shoved him in out of nowhere so they could explain why the FL was able to transmigrate. Having such a random 'God' character thrown in with absolutely no explaination was super jarring and kind of ruined the ending. First of all: why was the original 'Ji Fanyin' able to guess that he was 'God' just because of his name, second: how was Shen Li able to take Ji Fanyin to another world and why did Ji Xinxin have a dream of her 12 years ago, third: even if Shen Li could do all of this for the 'woman he loved' (we saw no proof of this and had no reasoning for why he loved her or how they even met or knew each other, he was just her 'friend') why would Shen Li willingly choose to help the ML go to the FL's world to be with her?!?!?!? Like in what world is he going to willingly do that?

    [collapse]
Overall, the novel was interesting enough that I read to the end, but the ending pissed me off enough that I wrote a review.

It was almost perfect but for a tiny detail ill let in spoilers below that soured it for me, but I guess not even realistic yet great heroines can be good at everything

Shes frankly honest from the get go about making money off the unwanted suitors who want her to pretend to be their white moonlight and 70% of the joy is them slowly realizing that they actually like better the stand in than the og FL

Its a nice story where transmigrator gets revenge for the person who they impersonated... more>> but it also has some of the goals in there too of her own, and I like they expanded a lot on MC’s actual unique tastes vs the ones of the body she impersonated

Spoiler

My only complaint would be I found a bit distasteful using Li Xiaoxing’s disability to twist further the blunt knife into the wound but in the end it is true that is why he was like that anyways. And she does throw him in his face that if he really wanted to find the real person who stayed with him in the hospital he would’ve done it, he just used that as an excuse to justify his love instead down the line so he has no right to claim purity of love

I think I just found a new favorite of all time? Wow that was so good.

pros

  • I love the dynamic between female MC and true ML. It's really sweet, consensual, and natural. I would be smiling giddily whenever there's a scene involving them.
  • Female MC is a really well written character foil to the superficiality of the other characters. She is a lawful neutral MC with sass, wisdom, and flair. I really love how ruthless she is in the face of others' attempts to manipulate her emotionally or force her hand. She is loving and kind to those deserving of it.
  • The women and men in the story are all well characterized. Their flaws nicely examined.
  • Very satisfying take-downs of douchey characters. A+ revenge story.
cons

  • some characters seem under-utilized. I.e. The actor, director
  • some things are farfetched, like just how utterly smoothly everything goes for MC
  • true ML is not introduced until later in the story, and his presence was pretty lowkey, to the point that I was very happily surprised whenever MC and true ML became an item near the end of the story. (To be honest, I kind of found this refreshing though.)

I don’t even know where to start, please don’t read this if you arent extremely bored, it’s not worth it, I don’t know why the reviews are so good.
FL has to deal with c*cky men for all this story, they think that they have a chance every time and reading about how they treat her made me want to stop reading this, to be such a painful thing to read it was extremely long, I don’t think I can understand others opinion about her being strong etc... she left this guys to trample over her, and didn’t take any actions herself aside from rejecting them and reminding them like 1 or 2 times of their action I don’t know how that could even count as revenge...
ML is a young guy, so young that he isn’t able to enter FL eyes as an equal, just a kid, she toy’s with him and doesn’t take him seriously, spoiler: and after everything she just goes like nothing happens leaving him alone, even before this they didn’t even talk a lot, I don’t think he knows anything about her besides her personal drama and what she liked to eat, so how could he like her truly? It just seemed like this young guy had a crush on an older woman and decided to abandon all his prospects of love for an entire lifetime, it made me sad, I wanted him to end up with the original as they match each other better.

It's was truly a good story but I took of one star because of the ending with the choosing ML I don't hate the ML but ... more>>
Spoiler

I can't not understand why he loved so much the MC for him to have the patience of waiting his entire life to see the MC at the end of his life...? because they didn't interact this much... also for me they most like old sister - and a little brother relationships in my opinion

[collapse]

and also about who was the ML

Spoiler

At first I was thinking it would be He shen because of how he was mysteriously introduced in the story especially with the flow... but he disappeared after a little apparition.. I was thinking "what the f*... ?* After that I was thinking maybe it was Shen Qi who appeared lately but I never imagined it will be Chen Yunsheng I didn't ever considered him because it was like a junior confession to a senior (I don't know how to describe but like "a first love at school" like a one good memory from your youngness if you know what I means...) especially I repeat for me this ML give me a younger brother vibe that is why I was the most disappointed Sight... Also I wanted to know more about Shen Qi because I didn't truly understand this person... just why he like the MC and how did he encounter her... ?

in a world of scumbags you have to become the scumbag to scam the scumbags. Lol.

very interesting premise. Has cheating men must die + the job of an imperial concubine an vibes to it. And I am at the edge of my seat.

you can imagine my maniacal laughter!

... more>> FL is a snake but has her set of principles. She laid the rules out for the men. Never led anyone on tbh.

she's basically doing escort service. Which good on her! Bleed them dry!

always hilarious when she give them the amount of money they have to pay her. Like a slap in the face after talking about sweet-nothings. Illusions breaking at that very moment, reminding them that it was all their foolish fantasy.

the men around the person she transmigrated into are exhausting. I needed to take breaks from reading them.

i wanted to cut off their b@lls. Crush their spirits. Make them regret ever being born.
though, they might be into that if it's the fl.

they are completely unreasonable to the og owner. Like what the f*ck does looking kike her sister a valid reason to hate her? The girl is depressed. Can't blame her with parents like that and these vapid men made it worse.

i couldn't stop rolling my eyes and scoff. Glad this isn't under the premise of being a novel that the FL transmigrated into (if it is, I must have missed that part) bc I would wonder what the appeal is for the imaginary readers of this fake novel.

the verbal abuse she gets from these people is simply soul-crushing. It no surprise why the og owner commited s*icide. Her life is a sad one.

the men:

song, a piece of tr*sh. I reveled on his suffering the most. Since he is the catalyst of majority of the og owner's suffering, sure her sis too but the way he used her was just deplorable.

bai, a brat. He needed a lot of growing up. And he somewhat did. But still very selfish.

li, I initially didn't think was as bad but once I found the time to sink the story in, I realized yeah he was also tr*sh.

i wished them death.

chen however, he is my beloved. My child. I want to raise him.

the women, THE WOMEN! Well-written! Ling mingyue and zhang ning are amazing. I love them. I wish novel wrote more women relationships that are healthy.

I want to give this 5 stars but I feel as though I was misinformed about this novel before I started reading it. It is not a romance novel really, it is more of a manipulation x psychological warfare novel that has aspects of romance sprinkled in and sometimes irresponsibly shoved in.

I don’t however think that the novel is bad. It is actually quite a good novel and the writing quality is better than most of my previous reads. Here are a few things I liked and disliked about the... more>> novel:

Spoiler

Firstly, the female MC is a truly dominant woman who is both prideful and has the abilities and intelligence to back her pride. She is always in control. This is a refreshing take on the dominant female MC concept but I feel as though it was slightly overdone because the MC was simply never in any danger of loss or taking a blow. It felt like the MC existed purely to succeed, there was no struggle, no hard work really, she simply powered through all obstacles like they were cotton candy. However, as a face-slapping novel this MC simply provides food for the starving and drink for the parched. It is satisfying to see the “bad” get what they deserve.

Secondly, and this is a dislike, the MC is just a much stronger version of the antagonist. In fact the antagonist learns her tricks from the MC in the first place through dreams. The MC is more or less on the same moral standing as the antagonist and it feels less satisfying to support her. Where the antagonist manipulates those around here to gain affection, the MC manipulates those around her to gain enough money to return to her world. This would place the MC at the moral high ground except for a few points, firstly, it is made clear that the MC is more than talented enough to earn money from other avenues just as fast if not faster. Secondly, the MC is not manipulating those people out of necessity as it is made known to the readers that the MC also did much of the same thing as the antagonist back in her original world. Thirdly, the MC leans too far into the money grabber role and her emotionless actions when acting in her monetary interest severely disconnect the novel from the romance genre. Quite literally, the novel could have been just as successful if romance was entirely removed and instead all the love targets became business targets instead.

Thirdly, the ending of the novel is a little out of sorts for me and feels shaky. Not particularly satisfying and the logic of the novel drops a little in what feels like a mismatched lid forcefully screwed onto the incorrectly threaded bottle.

All of that aside, I still enjoyed the book when I started to consider it as a simple face-slapping/psych manipulation novel. Though it did not scratch the romance itch that I had chosen to read this novel for, it still has decent standing in my mind.

A very interesting story on several levels with a rather unique take on transmigration and a totally bad-ass female MC. One of the best FLs there are.

The first two thirds, up to the engagement story arc, around chapter 85 are very good. Exactly how great stories should be. Unfortunately, the engagement story arc is very weird. The explanation is lacking and it's not really clear what really happens in the protagonists' minds. Everything is only hinted at and mostly it's only said that the characters know themselves what is meant,... more>> only we readers are pretty much left in the dark. Also, the resolution of the main world arc as well as the ending are rather bland in comparison to the high octane first two thirds.

All in all, the story is still very fresh and very much worth reading. <<less

Things you can like about this novel sorry have to put this in a spoiler.

Spoiler

The original actually gets a comeuppance and gets to enjoy life.

The sister fight is interesting if a bit beyond belief.

[collapse]

The writing is also very good and readable.

What kills this novel. Well first off the premise. I just didn't buy into the idea that the fish would pay 100k/hr for her to act as a stand in. They were in love with a particular woman and part of the image of that woman was purity i.e. Not having a slot for a credit card. Minor spoiler.
Spoiler

I also never bought into the twin sister being able to completely despoil the other's life. The Original excelled in academics and scholarly pursuits. The evil sister and her fishes would have certainly depressed her but also focused even more so on where she could win. The parents were also way over the top.

[collapse]

The biggest problem though was the novel was tedious. It felt like a death march to get to the end. There was so much filler and padding, I just wanted to get past it. There also wasn't enough of the good points to sustain the novel.

Bottom Line: I'd look for something better. <<less

Great novel.

I don’t usually read modern ones but this one was well thought out and engaging. The plot is nicely structured. Some of the points that were left ambiguous have eventually been resolved in a satisfying way, so I have high hopes for the rest.

MC takes over a woman in a similar modern world and gets access to the old memories and some years of “future” memories that drive the original to death has to earn money or strong emotion to get back

the MC is very logical, and unlike most... more>> transmigration novels she doesn’t care at all about this new world. She’s happy in her old one and just works to getting back. She’ll enjoy things as she goes but doesn’t feel any particular feelings for the original bodies ties. It helps that everyone involved is pretty much garbage that drove the original to death for reasons ranging from apathy to active hate.

People complain about the ending but that hasn’t been translated yet, so I am taking it with a grain of salt. Everything StarveCleric has translated so far has been great. <<less

Top tier. Unique MC who slowly steals the hearts of all the scum that abused and neglected the original owner of her body. She's aloof and above all of them. With her temperament, it's only natural that these emotionally stunted kids fall in love with such a goddess. AND she messes with them sooooo smoothly. All the dog-blooded drama plots can get stuffed as long as our Fanyin is around.

Our FL also has great relationships outside of her stand-in clients that are really a joy to read. Not many, mind,... more>> but they exist. <<less

2. OG-Ji Fanyin is very cute after returning to her body. Yes, she is not dead after our MC Ji Fanyin finished her mission in that other world. Glad she managed to continue her dream to study

3. Our MC-Ji Fanyin ended up with the ML who is really good to her and adores her (usually this kind of character is the second male lead and to be honest, I really didn't expect it much at the beginning but whoaa good job Author for restoring my faith in HEA for a nice male character! Lol)

The MC actually has a concrete goal that she works towards and is always on the grind for that cash lmao.

She has her standards though, in regards to being a stand in and never stoops down below them. Her clients (who were all scums to the og body) aren’t the ML and all get their emotional comeuppance in some way. I’m very happy the author didn’t decide to have the MC get together with them.

The MC reaches her goal and returned at the end!! Which is wonderful and good for her 😌. And also the original host of the body she was in also got to return to her body! Free of scum men and family and now with a fortune lol.
