Joshua Palmer had been a live-in son-in-law for three years. His wife called him a loser, his mother-in-law looked down on him, and his relatives didn't care about him. He got up first and went to bed last every day. He was subservient to others. So what if he was a live-in son-in-law? Every dog had its day! Gold was meant to shine! Back then, others didn't treat me seriously. Today, I will make you regret it!

[Farming + Beast Taming + Uplifting Story] In an instant of transmigration, Qian Qi finds herself transformed into a despised scoundrel and a waste, attending Awakener University with a major in Magic Plant Study—a field so obscure it's almost laughable. Known as Magic·Obscure·Futile·Plant Study, it's a major that seems doomed to fail. But Qian Qi has other plans. Obscurity is fine, but poverty is not! Even in the most obscure major, she aims to embody the most thrilling persona, create the most potent magic potions, and make the most money! Qian Qi: "Ladies and gentlemen, take a look! A one-second Blood Stopping Magic Potion, only 998! Even King Yan would turn a blind eye when he sees you!" Crowd: "Stopping blood in one second? Are you boasting? Can a study laggard like you develop such a potion?" Qian Qi: "Of course! I personally slashed the principal, and even he said it works well!" Principal: "Is this the reason you slashed me?" Crowd: "????" Initially, Qian Qi only wanted to make some money with magic potions by farming. Unexpectedly, she accidentally turned the obscure and discriminated Magic Plant Department into the hottest major in the university. The teachers and students of the Magic Plant Department were tearfully grateful and hoped she would lead Magic Plant Study to greater heights. But then they discovered... We agreed to farm together, so why did you secretly go to tame beasts?! Qian Qi: "Oh, it's because the faculty and students of the Beast Taming Department were too enthusiastic." Beast Taming Department Dean: "Qian Qi is the only genius Beast Master who can lead Beast Masters into a new era!" Magic Plant Department Dean: "Nonsense! Qian Qi is clearly the first Magic Potion Master, and her magic potions will make history!" Qian Qi: "Stop arguing! Adults don't do multiple-choice questions. You can all have me~" All students of Awakener University know not to mess with Qian Qi without reason. This person is both poor and miserly, thick-skinned and shameless. If you're not careful, she will swindle all the money off you. Qian Qi: "That's a rumor! I'm a good person! They're all willing!"
