Title: The Jilted Male Lead Hires a Mother for the Cute Shapeshifters
Translator: Fuyu
Chapter 1 - Transmigrated into a novel (1)
The living room's design was simple, but everything about the room revealed is luxuriousness. There was a young girl and man sitting in this living room.
The young girl was swinging her fluffy white tail. In a child's milky voice, she asked the man next to her, "Dad, why isn't mom here yet? When will mom be here?"
The man raised his eyelids. His gaze was extremely complicated. "Soon."
***
Three days later, in a certain hospital.
Ye Qing had transmigrated into a novel. She had transmigrated into an unimportant character in the novel.
In the novel, the female lead's friend had casually mentioned to her, "Hey, remember to get enough rest between your acting scenes. One of the employees in a nearby company died from overworking..."
The person she had transmigrated into was the person that had died from overworking. The only details about the original owner was the conversation between the female lead and her friend.
Ye Qing glanced it over. She couldn't even be bothered to remember the male lead and the female lead's names before tossing the novel's plot to the back of her mind.
This wasn't important to her.
Ye Qing didn't have any memories of her past. She didn't know why she had transmigrated, who she was before she had transmigrated, or where she came from.
However, she felt very familiar with this as if she had already experienced this many times before.
Her expression remained unchanged as she sat up on the hospital bed. She looked at the IV in her left hand, then squeezed her face with her right hand. She knocked her right hand against her thigh. She was very satisfied.
Very good, she was a human, and not some strange creature.
She wasn't sure why she wanted to check that she had transmigrated into a human.
And then, she began to receive the memories of this body.
After a while, Ye Qing's expression gradually changed because of her deep respect for the original owner.
The original owner's parents had unexpectedly died when she was young. This helpless young girl was pushed around like a ball by her relatives. In the end, she wasn't even able to finish high school. At the age of 16, she went to the big city by herself to find work.
After working hard for nine years, the original owner was able to purchase a two bedroom apartment in the city through her own efforts.
The original owner was uncomfortable with the idea of having to make monthly mortgage payments, so she had paid in full.
However, whether or not it was worth risking your life to earn money, that was a question left for metaphysics.
The original owner had emptied out her savings in order to buy this house and furnish it. After she had moved in for less than a month, her young life had been extinguished from staying up all night to work overtime for over ten days in a row.
Ye Qing let out a long sigh. She hoped that the original owner could have a good life in the next world.
After she finished sighing, Ye Qing returned to normal. She took an orange from a nearby basket that a coworker had delivered. She leisurely peeled the orange.
While she was eating the orange, she objectively analyzed herself. She seemed a bit cold-hearted and heartless.
Right after she finished the orange, the phone next to the fruit basket started to incessantly vibrated.
Ye Qing wasn't in a hurry to answer the call. She wiped her hands with a tissue before pressing the answer button.
The manager's caring voice sounded on the phone, "Ye Qing ah, how are you feeling? Do you feel any better?"
Ye Qing grinned and softly said, "Much better."
The manager: "That's good, that's very good. You almost scared us to death. The CEO even asked me about your condition today. You're so young. No matter how busy you are at work, you have to make reasonable choices with your time. You have to pay attention to your health!"
Ye Qing smile remained unchanged. "Don't worry. I'll definitely pay attention to my health in the future. I'm sorry for causing you and the company trouble."
The manager: “It's good that you understand. Oh yeah, Ye Qing, you don't need to worry about your medical expenses. HR told me early this morning that the company will reimburse you for your medical expenses. You usually work so hard. The CEO even said you're getting a bonus of $2,000 this month.”
Ye Qing's voice sounded livelier than before. "I really have to express a big thank you to the company!"
The manager: "It's what you deserve. The company recognizes the quality of your work and how hard you've been working. Everyone is waiting for you to come back and struggle through work together. When can you leave the hospital and come back to work? Can you come back tomorrow? You have to know that this project is more urgent than usual. Come back to work first, and I'll try to adjust your workload to make it easier for you. When the project is complete, I'll give a long vacation!"
Ye Qing blinked. In a very breezy tone, she answered, "But... I'm resigning."
