In the previous life, Song Yu was a top actress, famous throughout the country, but ultimately succumbed to overwork and sudden death in front of the red carpet due to the intense competition. After she died and opened her eyes, she never expected the new world to be even more competitive!

In this world, everyone aspires to become a Beast Tamer. High school students train their physical fitness at four in the morning, and college lasts for 12 years. Children who don’t study hard are even sent to mental hospitals. The original owner of this body, in pursuit of success, broke off her engagement with her poor fiancé and married into a wealthy family.

However, it just so happens that this is a male revenge novel, and the poor fiancé, Bai Yuhuan, is the male lead. The original owner even ends up getting killed off as part of the plot and left dead in the wilderness.

Song Yu: … I’m tired. Just let it all be destroyed. I just want to be a lazy fish.

But even a lazy fish doesn’t want to be sent to a mental hospital.

So, from that day on, Song Yu brought out all of her acting skills and became a drama queen.

While others participated in combat matches, she pretended to be seriously injured and lay on the ground eating snacks.

When others were taking exams, she faked a stomachache and went to the medical room to sleep.

When others were choosing high-potential contract beasts, after putting on a show of effort, she reluctantly chose a worthless pet.

Even when contract beasts wanted to train, she encouraged them to watch anime, read novels, and play games with her, pretending that this was the real path to becoming stronger.

    Ok good but the main problem of such novel is every foreigner is greedy, creepy, dumb and pe*vert. You can be patriotic is you want but place some heartwarming characters. Somehow it feel racist 😞

    Other than that it was full filling, heartwarming ☺️

    After more than a decade in the stressful acting business, the FL finally worked herself to death. When she wakes up in a modern, beast taming novel world where people strive even harder, she decides to fulfill her dreams of pursuing leisure, entertainment and good food.

    In the original novel world, the poor orphaned ML grows in power and gets his revenge, and our FL is just a cannon fodder. To save her dream of being a lazy salted fish, the FL ends up contracting beasts, levelling up, befriending the ML... more>> and becoming a heroine.

    I really liked this novel because it's so hard to find a female protagonist in a fantasy/cultivation/beast taming world (that's not xianxia), the FL's character is kind, practical, moral, and consistent, and the novel is a reasonable 133 chapters. I read the 44 translated chapters, then completed the novel with MTL.

    Positives:

      • light, heartwarming storyline
      • FL is kind, practical, principled, and stays in character
      • Spoiler
          • FL changes society's view of intelligent contract beasts as commodities/tools into being beloved/respected beings
          • ML is good, has character development and a happy ending with FL
        [collapse]
    Negatives:

      • very heavy chinese patriotism trope later in the story: every foreigner is dumb/arrogant/bullies chinese people, chinese people are smart/reasonable, foreigner is face-slapped, chinese people triumph

    Currently in chap 14 and I'm almost fed up with this girl. She keeps bragging her previous profession as an actress but I don't see it at all! None, nada! What I see is a not so smart girl acting out of character just so she can get what she wants. She doesnt wanna be a beast tamer so she gives good taming stuff to others without second thought (me thinking "isnt her character an arrogant heiress??). She also wants to avoid death so she starts apologizing and being kind... more>> to other people she's in conflict with (which is AGAIN not in line with her tough arrogant character) and has the audacity to be surprised when everyone thinks she's weird. (At this point, I dont even care about this story anymore)

    So ciao <<less

    I enjoy this type of story but just think of it as easy popcorn entertainment don't hope for an amazing story the translation is obviously done with A.I. Help which is normally fine but they didn't proofread afterwards leading to a segment being repeated over and over again before breaking out of the cycle which just seems lazy to the point I might as well plug in the raws into chat gpt myself and be done with it.

    It's pretty fun. I'm a sucker for the fun type of misunderstandings, which this novel has plenty of. It's a good low stakes comedy, with a diverse and interesting supporting cast. I'm looking forward to future updates.
