Yiyi transmigrates into a book, into a story of an old-fashioned, angst-filled romance and palace-and-household intrigue where everyone plays deadly guessing games. The heroine kills the female lead’s family to seize power, only to realize after the heroine takes her own life that she has fallen deeply in love with her. Driven mad by remorse, she slaughters almost everyone in the book, leaving only the male lead alive.
Yiyi, the heroine’s younger stepsister and one of countless cannon-fodder supporting female characters: ...
Yiyi, one of countless supporting female characters: I can still keep my head down and survive. Don’t panic.
To help the leads’ romance along and promote harmony among humankind, Yiyi becomes their loyal lackey. She shines as she hacks a path through every misunderstanding between them, paving the way to a happy ending. Just as she thinks the two leads are finally going to get their HE, they pull Yiyi, moved to tears in a corner, into the spotlight.
The heroine: Little sister Yiyi, didn’t you promise you’d always stay by my side?
The male lead: Yiyi, didn’t you say you’d be with me for all eternity?
Yiyi: ???
In a nutshell: I play matchmaker for the male and female leads, and they fight to the death over me.
