[Everyone's favorite + A touch of ensemble cast + Female protagonist's growth]
Su Nian discovers she's transmigrated into a book, becoming the hapless senior sister in a novel where everyone dotes on the junior sister.
The book says:
The junior sister is sweet and delicate, the darling of everyone in the sect.
Meanwhile, Su Nian is just a stepping stone to the junior sister's success. She's always taking the blame for her, and in the end, she dies saving her.
Seriously, Su Nian thinks she must be crazy to stick around instead of running away.
…
After her mind races a thousand miles a minute, Su Nian decides to change the story. The hapless senior sister can go to hell.
She starts acting crazy and playing dumb, deliberately making mistakes. In the end, she even breaks into a forbidden zone and releases the ancient vicious beast imprisoned inside, getting herself expelled from the sect.
“Phew, I'm finally out of that awful place.” Su Nian thinks she never has to be the hapless one again.
But to her surprise, after being expelled, she not only escapes her old role as the hapless senior sister, she becomes everyone's favorite! She's even more adored than the junior sister.
The junior sister thinks: Hey, which one of us is supposed to be the heroine of this everyone-dotes-on-her novel?
…
After being expelled, Su Nian discovers there's no rain falling outside at all.
The sect master of the Qingyun Sword Sect becomes her master.
The original male lead becomes her senior brother.
The original second male lead, heir to a reclusive family, and the heroine's younger sister all become her close friends.
Every one of them is devoted to her and spoils her rotten.
Su Nian: Then what was all that suffering I went through for?
55: You don't like sweet things.
Good. . .
