Lin Xiaoman, a Beijing drifter and office worker, was unpaid on New Year's Eve and couldn't even afford a train ticket home. While eating a cold bun outside a convenience store, her phone suddenly prompted her to activate the "Zero-Cost Shopping System"—complete tasks to get free items. She wanted to use the system to raise travel funds, but the first task was to help her neighbor Fu Jingshen, a cold man in a suit with gold-rimmed glasses, feed his cat. During their interactions, she discovered his vulnerability: his grandma was in the hospital, so he had no time to feed the cat. As Lin completed tasks and earned rewards, she grew closer to Fu, not only raising enough money to go home but also falling in love with him. Just as she thought she was about to start a happy life, she found out that Fu was the one behind the system—he had long noticed the girl who always worked overtime late into the night and wanted to approach her through the system!
