My Days in Dongguan

share time: 2025-11-06 00:30:51

Lin Xiaoman, a Shanghai-based office drone who died from pulling an all-nighter on a proposal, wakes up in 2018 Dongguan—as a "plug-in worker" on an electronics factory assembly line! Before he can complain about his fate, a "Working Cultivation System" blares in his head: carrying 100 bricks = +10 spiritual power, soldering 1000 joints = unlocking "Basic Object Control," and even arguing with his supervisor about overtime triggers the "Verbal Breakthrough" skill, making the supervisor add chicken legs to everyone's lunch on the spot! He plans to use the system to quietly rise to success, but Su Xiaotang, the sweet factory flower from the next station, has already noticed him: "Brother Lin, the blue light from your fingertip when you fixed my phone yesterday… did you secretly learn magic?" While the system pressures him to "complete 100,000 plug-in tasks to reach Foundation Building," Su Xiaotang brings him hot milk tea every day, hides throat lozenges in his workstation drawer, and one day slips him a sticky note: "I want to see you use that blue light to make me a flower." Lin Xiaoman suddenly realizes: In Dongguan, work isn't just about enduring hardship—amid the thrill of cultivation and upward mobility, there's love sweet enough to melt his heart.
